Phantom of the opera!

[spawn]

For some reason I always skipped this song on the ed hunter cd, and I finally decided to listen to it to see how it compared to Iced Earths version, and its FANTASTIC!
How good is that bit where steve does the bass bit and the tapping comes in? I also love the bit about half way through where its just the guitar doing the little single note riff! This song rules, and I am now going to go buy the album its on (either Killers or Iron Maiden, those are the only 2 I dont have)


On a slightly related note, should I bother playing the ed hunter game? My soundcard doesnt work at the moment, but should I play it when it gets fixed, or should I just appreciate the music and not sully myself with the game? (Ive heard its bad and very hard?)

I think the game really rocks. It is hard fairly hard (i still cant get past the NoB act) but if like Virtua Cop shoot em ups then you'll like this...it has a great soundtrack too

My only beef would be that for each act only one song is played and when that song ends it just restarts...a little annoying when the acts take so long to complete.

Phantom is my fave song on the first Maiden album! Twiddly diddly supreme with extra anchovies . Why the hell did they ever stop playing it live?

Haha, Sydo you crack me up:

Note to Sydo: When calling someone an Idiot, make sure you spell it properly so that you yourself don't look like said idiot

 

[Sydo]

I spelt it as such to emphasise Spawny's idoitocy.

Phantom of the Opera is an awesome song, my fave from the first album.

Ah, the French spelling, right?

Phantom is one of my fav. Maiden tunes ever! Great to jam on too! Now go out and get the first 2 Maiden albums RIGHT NOW, Mr. Spawn!

 

[spawn]

Hell. Go. There. Everyone.


Not necessarily in that order.....

It seems to me that Spawny is copping a large amount of flak, simply because he made one little mistake an didn't listen to one little song.

Well he deserves it! Fancy calling yourself a Maiden fan. Are there other songs you don't know? Run to the Hills perhaps? Number of the Beast? Ring any bells?

Sheesh. I don't know. And to think I actually drew another square on my ballot paper so I could vote for him.

All right thats it! Why dont you vote on this *Points to his arse*
Ive never heard the song "ring any bells" either....... must be on their first 2 albums
Yeah you lot just keep it coming, it takes more than really bad jokes and comments to break Spawny! I stand alone now I can see you wont bring me doooooown! hee hee.

You people make me sick, you are ALL a bunch of fickle mush heads!

Go listen to The Phantom Opera Ghost by Iced Earth. Everyone knows its better!

"All we are sayyyy-ing, is give Spawn a chance..."

OK, so he didn't know Phantom of The Opera, but he made up for his ignorance and also the travesty of skipping past a Maiden track apart from Judgement of Heaven by listening to it and sharing his opinion .

Weren't we all oblivious to Phantom's existence at one stage or another? I, for example, had never heard it until that fateful day in 1987 when I borrowed Live After Death from the library. It just took Spawn a while longer, and we should all be relieved that he's seen the error of his ways.

Go in peace, your sins are forgiven you.

Judgement Of Heaven is one of my favourite songs from the X-Factor! The opening lyrics are fantastic.
