Run to the Hills, Number of the Beast and The Trooper. Extremely rare. They do a hair metal segment that gets 2 Minutes to Midnight every so often.

And I'm going, I'm so excited!

Speaking of radio. The Rock 1000 finished on Friday. The good news, Iron Maiden on average has moved up this year. Though their highest placing was lower this year.
#908: Aces High (new to the countdown this year)
#669: Running Free (792nd last year)
#570: The Evil that Men do (268 last year
)
#431: 2 Minutes to Midnight (667 last year 👍)
#358: Hallowed be Thy Name (373 last year... Should be way higher)
#168: Wasted Years (445 last year)
#153: Fear of the Dark (451 last year)
#132: The Trooper (172 last year)
#113: Can I play with Madness (185 last year)
#100: Number of the Beast (053 last year
)
#066: Run to the Hills (133 last year 👍)
And because I can say this. #222: Silent Lucidity - Queensrÿche (520 last year)

Yeah, New Zealand is full of typical metal heads. The ones that just listen to music for heavy riffs and well known played to death metal songs. NZ also likes Foo Fighters, who get the most appearances in the countdown every year. And usually songs in the top 10.
Well I'd be worried if there wasn't any metal in the Rock 1000.

Many Maiden fans aren't liking it, but only because it doesn't sound like Iron Maiden.
I reckon it's a great album! Just listen to some of the songs, in the harder rockier songs the vocals don't quite fit, but most of the time but Richard Taylor's voice creates a nice edge to the music. I reckon it's good work. 👍

I'm not quite sure who I'd compare it to (big help, I know 
), but it's certainly hard rock. The playing is good, but the singing doesn't really fit the playing. The singer almost sounds like he's restraining himself part of the time to me. Perhaps I'm just crazy, though. It's worth a listen at least.
Back on topic, I found a DVD with a bunch of Maiden videos on it (Visions of the Beast) and they really aren't the type to make videos aside from them playing it seems, not that I really watch videos anyway. There are certainly worse things to do than watch a bunch of Maiden on a Sunday night

The guy in the audience is shouting "Bruce Dickinson! Sing Bruce Dickinson!" and Di'Anno retaliates by saying that he "Can't sing 🤬 Opera!!!!" and telling the guy in the crowd to "**** off, go home and listen to Maiden's records!". Furthermore, he claims that he wrote Running Free and then he offers the guy in the audience a fight!
