I'm not the one wearing the boots in this scenario, but I don't see what's so uncomfortable about it.

Nah people have no imagination
It's not in the song but put those 2 lines together in your mind they fit almost perfectly stylistically, vocally, just to show how similar IM are to gay power metal, oh but gay power metal is popular around here too I forgot
And you know who the lyrics sound like? Lenny kravitz (fly away) and the Steve miller band (fly like an eagle)
Pop song structure, overused galloping riffs etc etc

Oh wow, pop song structure, that only describes about 95% of non-prog metal in existence.
fwiw I do agree that Flight of Icarus is poppy by pre-SIT Maiden standards; Bruce openly said it was a conscious attempt at making a song that could chart in the USA, which it managed to, but that doesn't take away from its quality in the slightest.

Exactly, this is IM selling out to the US radio kids who weren't really into metal. It's their equivalent of Enter Sandman. Gateway pop metal

I mean think about this for a second, is it fucking epic? "go little bird boy, fly, we cheer for you! You can fly high little bird boy!" It's like a children's book man, and not the hobbit

the fortunate among us are blessed with an ear for sublimity and grace irrespective of style or complexity, those who aren't must learn the hard way that no amount of time signatures can fill the hole in their souls

Those educated and literate during the period of ancient Greece's meritocracy, in effect, the superhuman.

the votes have exactly followed mainstream consensus so far, if RYM track ratings are anything to go by.

"Nuh uh you're a faggot" name calling just shows the level of sophistication around here.
Lol at baroque being 17th century pop music. For one I'm more into 18th century baroque and 2 comparing it to pop music at all is laughable and shows you have no idea what you're talking about and 3 it was popular among some of the upper classes in a tiny area of Europe but there were many critics of the style and 4 it's the name for a whole supergenre of musical styles, your statement is like saying 20th century music is basically 20th century pop music

Aaaaaaaah!
Name calling is all pretentious fartsniffing cunts deserve, especially when they linger in threads where the topic is an album they don't even like.
