If I had to choose between Born Again or Perfect Strangers, I'd choose Purpendicular.  :smug:


I don't like Rammstein. I don't *hate* them, I just don't like them.

The whole Born Again album sucks. I thought it sucked then, it sucks now. I tried really hard to like it, but would rather listen to Perfect Strangers if I want some mid-80's Ian Gillan.

Billy would have a snappy come back to this one! :)

But I have to say if I wanna listen to some 80s Ian Gillan I'd put on a Gillan album.


As for Rammstein, yup don't like 'em...not one bit.


More hit songs I don't understand:

Megadeth's A Tout Le Monde....what a boring song. Easily one Megadeth's worst ballads (and they got a few of those) how that became so popular is something I don't understand. I'd take Promises over that one any day!

Yeah, I totally don't get that song, even when it's done with a famous Italian or French singer lady. :D

If I want an 80s Gillan Album, I need it to be Glory Road or earlier. The stuff with Janick Gers doesn't do it for me. I tried...

I like Mk4 DP with Tommy Bolin better than Mk3 DP with Blackmore... and also better than Mk2 Reunion material.

Magic is my favourite Gillan album! :D


Can I Play With Madness is one of Iron Maiden's worst songs.

I used to really like Gillan's Future Shock when it came out, I had it on vinyl. Didn't play it for many years until it finally came out on CD. Can't descibe how dissapointed I was with it!


And yes, Iron Maiden have a habit of throwing a crap song or two on their albums, even their best albums are marred by some turds. And as much as I like their last few albums (Brave New World onwards) they just want to fill up the CDs regardless of the material. Of those 5 albums there's maybe 2-2½ albums worth of great material the rest is all skip!

Van Halen's Running with the Devil. I always enjoyed them best when they got their Louis Prima vibe on. Roth's voice never convinced me he was serious, which was perfect to pair with the soulless Eddie.

Future Shock is my second favourite Gillan album! :D

I agree 100% that about Maiden though... I think Powerslave and The X Factor have the least weak tracks and no real stinkers but all the rest have a few...and yes post reunion albums have been spotty at best...and I don't think post Dance Of Death they've had a single GREAT song.

I used to love Mr. Crowley but I have to say I have fallen out of love lately...I'm thinking it's probably my third least favourite now after No Bone Movies and Crazy Train...

Don's keyboard intro though still is fantastic! But the rest of the song does kind of just plod on..
