what song should be maiden's next single?

[Esteban]

My choice would be Rainmaker, it's the best rocker in the album IMO...

Every time I listen to Dance of Death I like it even more, this is an excellent album.

 

[Abou]

Maybe Montsegur or No More Lies?

 

[SculptedCold]

rainmaker is the worst song on the album, it should be dance of death. who cares if its long

 

[pisschrist]

rainmaker.

 

[no country for old wainds]

Well Wildest Dreams sucked.

 

[ffanatic]

Rainmaker.

I would say Paschendale, but that's a bit long for radio play, and the song can't really be edited like The Angel and The Gambler could.

dance of death is my favorite song of the album so far, but it's too long for a single... and i don't like when they cut them like they did with ootsp

 

[anonymousnick2001]

No More Lies could have some parts cut and be the next single(coughchoruscough). It's currently my favorite off the album, and would work as a single, I think.

The band should actually sit down and make a serious, non-cheesy, non-animated, non-live footage video for this one, though...

 

[Psychonaut]

Paschendale would get my vote.

 

[Abou]

Paschendale would get my vote.

Same here, but the problem is that it is not accessable to a majority of the music audience. The goal of a single is to bring people in and I am pretty sure that a large chunk of radio listeners out there could not grasp Paschendale or its meaning.

 

[Tool]

Montsegur would be a good single, thought DoD and Paschandale are deff the best songs on the album.

 

[futile]

I dont give a fuck about length to be a single if its a good song ...

I dont think rainmaker is the worst , infact its great

Wildest Dreams is the weakest song on the album in my opinion

My favs Paschandale off the album , but i dot reakon its a suitable single , not because of the length tho.

 

[hibernal_dream]

Montsegur. If they were smart this would have been their only single, and not the sub-par Wildest Dreams

 

[Esteban]

I agree, they never seem to put too much effort into making decent videos

 

[solarfall_]

I say "Montsegur" should be their next single. \m/ Oh, has anyone seen their new video? It's pretty creepy..

 

[Tool]

I think Wildest Dreams has a funky video... song's not that great, though

 

[plfffffft]

If they wanted, they could probably have a huge hit if they released Journeyman. But for some reason I don't think they will

 

[anonymousnick2001]

I think Journeyman's a little too long and overdone for the radio. People might miss the point and call it cheesy.

 

[plfffffft]

But the thing with Maiden is that the choruses are always very repetative, so a little editing could turn the 7 minute Journeyman into a workable 4 or 5. If they wanted to.

Yeah, but I hate the concept of editing. It is like killing the song sort of.
