Mack BHOST
I'll try to stay through Fear of the Dark, but we'll see what happens.

Mack BHOST
Shoes that were soggy until the next day when we left
BradHOST
So run for your lives tour.
BradHOST
So Iron Maiden, self-titled Through Fear of the Dark.

BradHOST
years.
JonathanHOST
Right
Erik ShawHOST
... at that point I, I had, already had Fear of the Dark, and I had Brave New World.
Erik ShawHOST
So that, that was my, my, uh, the next one.
Erik ShawHOST
Uh, but so I...
Erik ArköGUEST
But it's kind of funny that, I mean, the intro is kind of long.
Erik ArköGUEST
It's like one minute of just Gregorian chants, which is kind of different.
Erik ArköGUEST
If you compare it to Fear of the Dark, which starts off with, like, "Be quick or be dead." Like, compare-
JonathanHOST
Yeah
ErikHOST
yeah that you're probably right there it's um
JonathanHOST
it's presented in a in a quirky way certainly the verses are but the pre-chorus now we can actually start touching on the music i think the pre-chorus is a very cool part with the open acoustic some girls flavor for sure with the it's a bit like a better Fear is the Key or something a development again I think that's a hidden thing with X Factor I realize now that there's certainly a ton of developments for the better from Fear of the Dark musically there's more in common between them than you might think
ErikHOST
I think yeah I think there's definitely there is more there
JonathanHOST
and usually two X Factors benefit
10 MINS LATER
JonathanHOST
But it sounds awesome.
JonathanHOST
It sounds passionate, I think.
JonathanHOST
Speaking of developing upon Fear of the Dark.
JonathanHOST
Yeah, it does have a bit of a...
Blaze BayleySOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
this too.
JonathanHOST
I mean, it's better than the tracks on Fear of the Dark with the similar sound.
JonathanHOST
This is a step up.
ErikHOST
Yeah, that I can agree with.
10 MINS LATER
JonathanHOST
There was a little bit
Blaze BayleySOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
left there
JonathanHOST
on Fear of the Dark, but it's totally gone here.
JonathanHOST
And when does it return? I would say Brave New World, perhaps.
SamHOST
Oof.
Adam LanganHOST
And then the encore was Aces High, Fear of the Dark, and Wasted Years.
SamHOST
Oof.
Adam LanganHOST
I know.
Adam LanganHOST
They skipped over, I mean, they did do The Trooper 'cause they have to.
Adam LanganHOST
Peace of Mind and Somewhere in Time were not as represented.
Adam LanganHOST
But, uh, the oldest song was Fear of the Dark, which now is, like, you know, a stadium song for them, so.
SamHOST
Yeah, it's a big sing-along.
SteveGUEST
Yeah.
RayHOST
I was a little disappointed in the screen during Fear of the Dark because they're showing them the woods.
TimHOST
I thought that was
RayHOST
cool.
RayHOST
I don't want to go see Iron Maiden and hear fucking Alexander the Great.
RayHOST
You know, I want to hear all the songs I grew up loving and all the songs I, you know, that were on Live After Death.
RayHOST
And if you're going to do a tour where you're only focusing on your debut through Fear of the Dark, like, I don't think that...
RayHOST
I would have liked to have seen one song off of No Prayer for the Dying.
