THE MISSION

[lurch70]

I have a hard time picking favorites from Mindcrime, but that song does kick all kinds of ass.

 

[Lies and Perfidy]

It's actually one of my least favorites on Mindcrime, oddly. Though still awesome, of course.

Eyes of A Stranger = WIN.

Oddly enough, EoaS is one of my least favorite. But they're all great songs.

 

[Tide In Mind Out]

Eyes of A Stranger = WIN.

Some of the most well known songs on Mindcrime have been a little overdone, but you can't deny that every song is pretty much perfect. "I don't believe in love", the most commonly played, could have the intro of all intros, next to "Number of the Beast" of course.

It's such a strange album in that it's so exquisitely perfect in every possible way. I mean, you could rearrange some of the songs, change the track order, add a riff etc, and all you would be doing is lowering quality. It's an album that should be left unchanged. The sequel is not wanted -- it'll just turn out to be a "Crimson II".

Best song on mindcrime = ALL.

But if I had to pick one...."Spreading the Disease".

I'd go with Suite Sister Mary

Suite Sister Mary
The Mission
Eyes Of A Stranger
are Mindcrime's top 3

The Mission is an excellent fucking movie.

Agreed, especially with that latter statement. It's best taken as a whole, hard to pick individual songs that RAWK. But at the same time, all of the songs work really well as stand-alone bits of catchy heavy metal.

Revolution Calling for me, that's one of the definitive metal anthems of the 80s IMO. And Eyes of a Stranger is the perfect way to close the story, at least until someone had the brilliant idea to write a sequel because their career had tanked...
