Is it just me or is hallowed be thy name overrated?

[The Educated fool]

Shit they know its us! Quickly, eliminate the spy!

Hehehe. Cute.

Everybody loves & play the song - even them:

So, the answer is: NO

Masterpiece!

This thread was slightly before my time joining the Forum, but I love re-reading it every once in awhile. Since the game is in maintenance, I figured I'd finally give my two cents, for whatever it's worth.

Of course Hallowed Be Thy Name is a masterpiece. I realized that when I first heard it at age 12. I remember evenings after school, listening to that song maybe a dozen times a day, rewinding the cassette after each one.

Its pretty good, but idk, never really saw it as a masterpiece, that would prob be rime of the ancient mariner for me. But yea, i *evolved* my tastes, and i do have to say, this sure was one of my most controversial shitposts.

Sure, it's a masterpiece.

Not my favorite maiden song though. It MAY be in my top 5, but that's a hard maybe. They have so many other masterpieces that it's hard to decide!

Unpopular opinion: No Prayer For The Dying is a good album.

Totally agree on that. Identifying a single best Maiden song is an impossible task.

[Ironstyle]

The Thin Line Between Love and Hate is a masterpiece I feel no one ever talks about. The solo at the end...fuckin' A, man.

[Saigrim]

Yes. Hallowed Be Thy Name and Rime of the Ancient Mariner are without a doubt my favorites. When these come on Ozzy's Boneyard when the wife and I are going somewhere she always gets a kick out me when I state "Oh, hell yeah" and crank the car stereo up.

But, The Man who Would Be King strikes some kind of deep cord with me and I can't get enough of that song either.
