Hey, now. Never once did I say that running wasn't boring. You know that I run just because I have nothing better to do!
Still, bad decision to make a SONG about a boring story made into a boring movie about such a monotonous activity! [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by Head banger from Tuesday, April 05, 2011 7:30:56 PM)

I distinctly remember how sad I was when it came out. While I still think "Caught Somewhere in Time", "Wasted Years" and even "Deja-Vu" are absolute GEMS and, for that reason alone (plus the art...WAY cool to try and find all the hidden messages) the album is priceless, I also temper that comment with how lame and - even worse - PREDICTABLE the rest of the songs were IMO. Worst? The absolutely lame, long and drawn-out "Lonliness of the Long Distance Runner!!" I was bopping around Chicago when this album came out. The three songs I mentioned above really caught my attention but the rest were pretty blah. "Try again," I think, so went for a nice long walk with the cassette in my ears. GAWD, I almost whipped that tape into Lake Michigan just because of that one song! LOL! While I absolutely loved Maiden before it, I really felt like a "Stranger in a Strange Land" (booooring) and far from "Alexander the Great" (pffff...so memorable, I can't even remember the basic chorus).
Funny how I can remember that rainy day back in 1986 when I almost chucked that tape as far as I could even thinking "running must be damn boring!" LOL!
Still think the album is worth it for the three songs I mentioned above, though. Oh yeah, did I mention the great artwork? HAAAAA!

Yes Brian (you fucking dummy .....) Even I admit the first 5 Iron Maiden albums are totally excellent and yes some of them,not all but some of them are better than Saxon's albums. But the point is....Iron Maiden nowadays will never catch Saxon. Saxon is writting thier best material and Maiden are writting thier worst and that is a fact from an overwhelming %percentage of fan's opinions(like probably 95%) you'll have to live with.
Thats why Saxon is up 15 to 4 here. They are voting for the current Saxon,not the sillyish Saxon from the 80's. Its mother fucking "SAD" that a band like Maiden can sell out arenas that Saxon can't yet when asked about comparing albums in quality the same Maiden fans that bought the tickets vote for Saxon? Its sad man.
Iron Maiden are living off thier first 5 studio albums( JUST LIKE SHITALLICA) while Saxon are living off thier current albums which are better than Iron Maiden's last 10 studio albums......"10" albums man....... not 1,2,3,4,5.......10!!!!!
All these people who voted for Saxon are voting for them because of Saxon's last 8 studio LPs dating back 16 years to Dogs Of War. So this shows the last 16 years and counting Saxon totally blows Iron Maiden out of the water.
Now if the thread were Saxon and Iron Maiden showdown just from the 1980's alone I would vote for Iron Maiden hands down,all Iron Maiden albums from the 1980's blows all Saxon albums from the 1980's away. But thats what is sad,this again shows how much better Saxon is now-a-days from a percentage of people's votes.
These people that go to Maiden's concerts that sell out 60,000 thousand fans just to see Maiden on a whopping percentage are not buying the tickets to hear El Dorado or any Maiden album after Seventh Son,they are buying the tickets to hear songs from 1980 debut "Iron maiden" ,Killers,The Number Of The Beast,Piece Of Mind,Powerslave,Somewhere In Time (yuk but fans like it better than thier nu stuff) and Seventh Son albums.
People are tired of getting watered down material from Iron Maiden,even Bruce's last 3 solo albums "Accident Of Birth,The Chemical Wedding and Tyranny Of Souls" blows all modern day Maiden albums out of the water,but its Bruce not Steve Harris.
And these people who voted here are not being "biased they are giving credit to Saxon for out-writting Iron Maiden in song quality. They are not just voting for Saxon to piss you off,they are sick of Steve Harris and thats what it boils down to. Steve Harris has ruined Iron Maiden and has since 1990.
The Number Of The Beast,Killers and Piece Of mind....these 3 albums are classics and even I will admit that even the best Saxon album Lionheart to me can't top it,thats how cool this band used to be. I was an Iron Maiden fan before you were born as I started liking them in 1982 when I bought The number Of The Beast and have been nothing but disappointed from 1990 till now...thats 21 years.
I do think the debut album "Iron Maiden" and "Powerslave" are excellent but they to me are just barely not as good as Lionheart and The Inner Sanctum,but its close.
However I still do like A Matter Of life And Death. Maybe you should of titled the thread "1980's Iron Maiden or 1980's Saxon"...instead,then Maiden woiuld be up 20 to 0!

Amazing.... Brian_Evans created this thread 4 months ago and Saxon is up "15 votes to Maiden's measly 4 votes". Saxon clearly has stomped Iron Maiden into the dust as everybody has posted to prove this. Up the Saxon fans!!
Hammer of the Gods is such a kick ass, straight forward, classic heavy metal style song! I really like it. El Dorado to me is very 'meh' - typical of Maiden these days, convoluted, self indulgent and actually not very interesting.
Iron Maiden's El Dorado vs. Saxon's Hammer Of The Gods....post which track you like better since its a showdown(lol!) I say Saxon's Hammer Of The Gods is light years better in quality than El Dorado.

) Even I admit the first 5 Iron Maiden albums are totally excellent and yes some of them,not all but some of them are better than Saxon's albums. But the point is....Iron Maiden nowadays will never catch Saxon. Saxon is writting thier best material and Maiden are writting thier worst and that is a fact from an overwhelming %percentage of fan's opinions(like probably 95%) you'll have to live with.
