So what's wrong with Run to the Hills?
 
I don't get it...maybe there is a Maiden fan that can properly explain this to me, but I really don't see the hate for the song. I mean...it's not the GREATEST Maiden song (I can think of 10-12 better right off hand) but I mean, it's well written, has awesome parts (esp. the drums) and tells a good story. IT's probably the most overplayed Maiden song there is (and that might be the answer right there) but I don't get the vitriol for it in general...

anyone?

I love this song. I can see why die hards would hate it though. SO overplayed, that kind of thing doesn't bother me though.

Nah it sucks. He sounds like a faggot.

Its a great song, but the fact that the Maori radio station over here use it as a political statement os to the way they were treated in the past has taken the shine off the song for me.

I could think of about 30, but thats only cos i have the full Iron MAiden catalogue here, and that 6 disc special they released in a steel box as well.

I don't like Maiden, but I do like that song.

Pretty much all metal singers sound like faggots. Metal is teh gayest genre ever.

Dickenson has the gayest metal hair ever in the video. It's like pin straight and he has 1980s 40 year old woman bangs

Who the fuck, who is a Maiden fan, hates that song. It's awesome.

The only thing anyone should hate about Maiden is the Blaze Bailey years

Kane Knight 03-01-2008 09:06 PM

Who the fuck admits to being a Maiden fan?

Not gonna lie, I only like a few Iron Maiden songs (Mother Russia primarily). But when I heard this song over the radio, I just could not recognize who the fuck was singing it. Its so wrong. On a side note, I wear my Iron Maiden swimsuit when I lifeguard :D

That is pretty gay

I must agree with David, its probably one of their biggest songs played on the radio but they have MANY that are better than this.
