It's good, but not even in my Maiden Top 20.

 

Although it is better than the tripe you usually laud.

Well, it's not a rock song. It's metal. There has never been something Maiden recorded that wasn't metal. It's a good song but far from one of Maiden's best let alone an all time great song. I would probably even rank it last on the album it comes from too.

Well you know my feelings on the matter.

 

I do like the song though. It is on my favorite Maiden record.

When you consider some of the stormers Maiden has produced over their career, Madness is actually a bit of a dud by comparison.

You say, dud. I say a song I can listen to in the car with my wife. She sings, "can I play with matches"! A song my mother could almost enjoy!

My friend and I used to sing "Can I play with my nads" 😄

 

Try it next time you hear the song. It fits perfectly.

Meh, takes like two and a half minutes to get to the good stuff. Then boring again until 4:40. Madness wins!

Great song, really f'ing great song.

 

For me? "Aces High"

 

Not "Can I Play With Madness," which sounds a bit like Maiden's nod toward MTV . . .

That's like saying Mission is better than 2112 because the best parts are separated by an interlude of mostly good but uneven quality.

First one that came to mind. Matches is pretty killer, though. I mean Madness. Now I can't unhear that in my brain Ipod.
