the great unknown

• mükemmel bir maiden parçası. dinlerken sanki brave new world albümünden bir şarkı dinliyormuş hissiyatı veriyor. müthişsiniz dedeler.
• iron maiden'ın yepisyeni şarkısının sözleri;
  
  winter softly falling to the ground
  calmly waiting don’t you hear a sound
  when the world has fallen to the depths below
  where the future’s open and the fear has grown
  and the path to follow to the great unknown
  where the dark has fallen and the seed is sown
  
  in the selfish hearts of some
  the nightmare’s coming
  with the spilling blood of others
  now wringing through
  now the cup is spilling over
  wake to news of death
  and the prophecy of sages
  destiny is met
  to the depths of human mind
  the cry is burning
  with the mentor’s anger
  of the lesson ringing true
  and for those who live by and are dying by the sword
  they will take their ideals with them
  justify their end
  
  where the fools are lying and the meek are crying
  where the wolves are preying
  on the weak alone
  where the sons are dying
  hear their mothers crying
  and the distant sound of fire
  begins again
  
  never ending the desires of men
  it’ll never be the same or calm again
  in a time of changing hearts
  and great unknown
  it’ll be the damnation and end of us all
  
  where the fools are lying
  and the meek are crying
  where the wolves are preying
  on the weak alone
  where the sons are dying
  hear their mothers crying
  and the distant sound of fire begins again
  
  never ending the desires of men
  it’ll never be the same or calm again
  in a time of changing hearts
  and great unknown
  it’ll be the damnation and end of us all
  
  when the world has fallen
  and we stand alone...
• the book of souls'un bombalarından. hakikaten nefis. albüm gelmeden namı gelen parçalardan dolayı henüz fark eden pek olmadı.
• the book of souls'un en underrated parcasi oldugunu dusunuyorum zira baslangic bitis, riff zenginligi ve atmosferi acisindan olsun vokaller cok iyi bir tat yakalanmis. sozleri ve bestesi ile adeta amoladdan firlamis bir hali var.
• bestecilerine bakmadan kimin bestelediği anlaşılabilen parçalardan. bu şaheser tamamiyle adrian smith ve steve harris kokuyor.
• (bkz: canlı kayıtları orijinalinden güzel olan şarkılar)
