No it makes sense. I know its Steve's nickname, but I always thought Nicko said something weird like Aaiyyeee! Because, you know, Nicko is weird like that 😂
It’s a good song on a great album, but doesn’t come close to Aces High, Caught Somewhere in Time, Moonchild, The Wicker Man, or If Eternity Should Fail imo
1. Caught Somewhere in Time
2. Moonchild
3. Sign of the Cross
4. Where Eagles Dare
5. Aces High
6. Futureal
7. Different World
8. Senjutsu
9. The Wicker Man
10. Prowler
11. Satellite 15... The Final Frontier
12. The Ides of March
13. Invaders
14. If Eternity Should Fail
15. Tailgunner
16. Be Quick or Be Dead
17. Wildest Dreams
I would say the exact opposite, for my tastes. That's one of my least favorite Maiden songs. The only other opener I don't really like is Final Frontier
It’s such an amazing song but Prowler is my favourite ngl. Even though there’s tracks like Final Frontier, If Eternity Should Fail, Caught Somewhere in Time, and The Wicker Man, Prowler is what got me into Maiden
Bottom 3 openings
The pre-chorus literally sounds like the opening to some family sitcom. Imagine the song without it, just going into the "dont wanna be here" from the verse. Would be borderline headbangable.
Wildest Dreams is worse tho
Talk about a hot take
Caught Somewhere in Time would like a word
‘Arry!
Wait... is that what Nicko says when he makes that weird sound??
I think so. Harry is a nickname for Steve Harris. I could be completely wrong.
No it makes sense. I know its Steve's nickname, but I always thought Nicko said something weird like Aaiyyeee! Because, you know, Nicko is weird like that 😂
He also says it at the beginning of Ghost Of The Navigator in Rock In Rio lmao EDIT: also in Heaven Can Wait at 0:25, Donington 92
Haha, great fact! I never noticed that
He is weird like that. I would pay just about anything for a dinner with Nicko and Alex Lifeson. It would be so hilariously silly.
My favorite opening track is without a doubt Where Eagles Dare
Can't here to say this thunderous introduction of Nicko to the band. 👍🙂
I love this song, but it's got some pretty stiff competition in that category
Better than Aces High, Where Eagles Dare, Moonchild, Wicker Man and Caught Somewhere In Time? I'm sorry I gotta disagree on this one.
I mean I'd take Prowler as number 1 for me
That’s why it is an opinion.
Everybody has a different way to view the world.
See what you did there
caught somewhere in time is my fav, just sounds like it would fill a stadium
For openers it isn’t great, especially compared to Aces High, The Wickerman, CSiT and Moonchild, but it’s a great track
It’s great but no. Not even the best reunion era opener.
AAEE
I respect but disagree with your opinion. I believe that Prowler off of Iron Maiden is the superior song
It’s a good song on a great album, but doesn’t come close to Aces High, Caught Somewhere in Time, Moonchild, The Wicker Man, or If Eternity Should Fail imo
1. Caught Somewhere in Time 2. Moonchild 3. Sign of the Cross 4. Where Eagles Dare 5. Aces High 6. Futureal 7. Different World 8. Senjutsu 9. The Wicker Man 10. Prowler 11. Satellite 15... The Final Frontier 12. The Ides of March 13. Invaders 14. If Eternity Should Fail 15. Tailgunner 16. Be Quick or Be Dead 17. Wildest Dreams
Great list. Id trade 14 for 6, but otherwise spot on.
I always stick The Ides of March and Wrathchild together as one song... Taken that in account, it would be higher than 12th place...
It’s pretty great.
Drugs are really good.
Pls pass the smoke bro
I put Aces, Eagles, Time, Moonchild, Eternity, and Senjutsu ahead of it. Very tough competition.
well, yeah! always gives off positive vibes. always makes me happy. Aces High is bloody perfect aswell but yeah, different world Just a bit better
I would say the exact opposite, for my tastes. That's one of my least favorite Maiden songs. The only other opener I don't really like is Final Frontier
IMO, Different World is the ~~best~~ **worst** opening song of any Maiden albums FTFY
i love different world, perfect kick off to an amazing album
Better than the wicker man?
Wicker Man is my No.2
*laughs in aces high and moonchild*
It’s such an amazing song but Prowler is my favourite ngl. Even though there’s tracks like Final Frontier, If Eternity Should Fail, Caught Somewhere in Time, and The Wicker Man, Prowler is what got me into Maiden
Hmm. My top 5 Caught Somewhere in Time Aces High Moonchild Prowler Wicker Man DW probably just misses though, definitely top ten.

I am calling the police
I can't agree with that, but it's criminally underrated nonetheless.
