Incidentally, Mustaine was arrested for a 502 not long after this track was done. |

According to Mustaine, the title is the subject: getting even. It's too bad the song is kind of watered-down. |

| Megadeth – Something I'm Not Lyrics
| 19 years ago
|
"I just don't see how trying new things means they sold out, I'm sorry."
I've been listening to them up until St. Anger. The fact that they devolved rather than evolved this time around (no solos? pansies) is the point that the current sell-out debate is hinged on- and I agree. Sell-outs they are. |

| Iron Maiden – The Longest Day Lyrics
| 19 years ago
|
It's just part of people injecting politics into places where it doesn't belong. They just like believing that everyone's on their side, grasping at straws, even when someone is just standing outside the issue altogether.
Besides, I believe that Bruce himself said once that he hates hippies. |

Bruce said in an early solo career show on the Anthology DVD that "cowboys should stay in movies." This song is about someone who loses touch with reality and decides to live life as an action movie. |

| Bruce Dickinson – Gods Of War Lyrics

I guess it's about someone who was born and bred to fight and die in battle, knowing victory of the kill as the only joy life has to offer and using religion to justify violence. |

Beelzebub is a separate entity from Satan, depending on your references. But still, the example Kaine_lawless pointed out is actually a pretty weak one because it can still make grammatical sense. |

This song is about the pilot of a downed plane who dies when the rest of his crew manages to escape who is cursed to fly the skies in the ethereal form of his damaged aircraft for eternity. |

RainbowDemon was correct. He dedicated the song to his father both AFTER it was written and AFTER he passed. That's the truth, "pure and simple." (nyah nyah, OTM) |

Rorodog is correct. Also, I believe Adrian Smith was the main person in charge of writing this song. Harris actually took a back seat to this one, but he was still involved. |

| Bruce Dickinson – Omega Lyrics

I took it for face value, personally. The description along with plainly stating "Omega Zero Day" conveyed to me that this is about the inevitable day that the sun finally dies, dragging everything in this solar system along with it. |

| Bruce Dickinson – Wicker Man Lyrics
| 19 years ago
|
Wrong "Wicker Man" phikita. You're thinking of the Iron Maiden track, which is completely different.
This song seems to refer to a lot of North European Nordic beliefs. The wicker man was a straw figure that was burnt as worship to their gods and they believed that every ash and amber that resulted from this burning would bless everything it comes in contact with. |
