bah! that’s easy :), “Can I play with madness” from Iron Maiden. Congrats! I also turned 27 recently, all I though is “gosh, being 30 is so near…” 😛
D’oh ! I knew the origin of it too 🙂
BTW, being 30 is not that bad… i’m still able to code and immediatly recognize Iron’s lyrics too !!! 😎
Gratz! You shouldn’t give bonus points so easily, recognized the title before I read you offered point.
Jusr reading the ” Jono’s world of metal” playlist, maybe I should listen to some of your songs. We kinda share a taste in music 🙂 But I can’t play the guitar worth a damn
You old git. When do you start drawing your pension, old man?
If you wanna know the truth son, I’ll tell you the truth….

Happy birthday, old arsehole 🙂

So, with the subject on Iron Maiden – fave song?
Mine is Rime Of The Ancient Mariner from Powerslave, with Still Life from Piece Of Mind as a close second. 🙂
Hallowed be thy Name!
Happy birthday Jono. Don’t worry – you’re still younger than I am! 😉

I’m not embarrassed to admit that I knew it was an Iron Maiden reference. Though I needed the Internet to remind me of the exact song.
Fav Maiden song Gotta be Can I Play with Madness First song eva heard.
oh and congrats on turning 27 I’m 28 so Closer to the big 30 than u ;P
Run for the hills 👿
Gods I spotted the lyrics and then i realised that youd not have been older than my own daughter when id first heard a Iron Maiden track and im not sure I can remember which one it was but I do remember Eddie and Killers. man I feel as old as he looked!
nik butler.. now listening , with some guilty pleasure, to “Story Tellers Night” .. not an Iron Maiden track but the vibe is close enough for now.
