"The Evil That Men Do"

That's funny, because I don't like that song at all.
If it's gonna be a Maiden song, Aces High or Hallowed Be Thy Name. Period.

Like the topic says, ?best song not favorite song, I agree, Hallowed be thy Name is my favorite Maiden song, ?
I choose "The Evil Tha Men do" because it is basically a Microcosm of everything Maiden is:
,
-it's got the intro, which is amazingly atmospheric, ?best they've done since "Children of the Damned"
-it's got the galloping bass of Steve Harris,
-The twin leads of Murray and Smith, how can you not love that solo... Someone once mentioned on a forum I used to read, "Judas Priest introduced the world to twin guitars and Maiden perfected it", I have to agree.
-Then there's ?lyrics which are ?based on a line from ?"Julius Caesaer" by William Shakespeare, delivered in that way only Bruce can do.
The intro and the opening line:
"Love is a razor and I walked the line on that silver blade" ?the imagery that conjures up is astounding.
Anyway Im degenerating into fanboy mode now so I'll stop.

But you know, since it's a fact and all, I guess 'Wouldn't it be nice' is he best. I haven't heard it so I can't pass judgement. That's probably why I disagree.
