Stranger In A Strange Land

by Iron Maiden
on Somewhere In Time

Lyrics

Was many years ago that I left home and came this way,
I was a young man full of hopes and dreams,
But now it seems to me that all is lost and nothing gained,
Sometimes things ain't what they seem,

Great band
I do not 'like' this track, Pandora....* * * I F'N LOVE THIS TRACK!!!!*** Should they ever do an anniversary tour for this album I am SO there!
Excellent
The vocals kind of reminds me of Sting's "Fortress Around Your Heart"- weird I know, but everytime I hear this song there are bits abd pieces that sound so similiar in the way he's singing.
This just might be the best song ever! The guitar sounds perfect, the vocals are beautiful, and the song achieves a great balance of exciting and relaxing at the same time!

Definitely not a cover of the Leon Russell song of the same title...
MAIDEN RULES!!!!!An d this song is easily 1 of my faves! Love it!
hard to choose a favorite Maiden song and guess what..you don't have to... just love'em all... would be a bonus if they could produce something new
not my favorite, but i had this albulm in highschool.
Steve Harris went nuts all over this album. But yes, he was great in this song. Wasted Years is my favorite bass line on the album though.
prominent organ? No no, those are guitar synths. Maiden played with them on this album to get close to the Deep Purple sound they loved.

This song is awesome- I love the Dickinson vocals, and the swinging baseline over the afterbeat drum fill. Nice. See you in Jersey!
