The Reviews about The Number of the Beast (page 8/ 12)
------ performed by Iron Maiden
Satanic | Reviewer: rejith_india | 1/19/08
the inner meaning of this song is obviously about glorifying satan's power and that satan is more justful compared to a hypocrite like god. If you listen to the song 'sign of the cross' you would have to consider it is totally against christian beliefs if you arent a moron. The epucurian concept of god is
If God is willing to prevent evil, but is not able to
Then He is not omnipotent.
If He is able, but not willing
Then He is malevolent.
If He is both able and willing
Then whence cometh evil?
If He is neither able nor willing
Then why call Him God?
LOL IM ALSO A FOOL | Reviewer: El Tobo | 1/12/08
OMFG IT MENTIONS SATAN. THIS CLEARLY MEANS THAT MAIDEN ARE SATAN WORSHIPERS BECAUSE IM OF VERY, VERY LOW INTELLIGENCE AND PICK UP ON KEYWORDS LIKE 'HELL' AND 'SATAN' AS I NEVER LEARNT TO ACTUALLY READ!!
THEREFORE MAIDEN AND ALL MEMBERS, AND ALSO THIS SONG IS F00KING SATANIC LOLOLOLOLOL...
Yeah okay, then slap ourselves, get some education, face the facts and accept that Most members of Iron maiden are strong christians, and none of their songs actually worship satan. This song is about his hypothetical experience of a satanic ritual, how mesmerising it was, and moreover how it traumorised and still haunts him. If anything, this song focuses on how bad satan is, not how you should most definately worship him becuase Maiden most certainly do... All those who still argue that maiden are all satanistic, should actually go google 'stairway to heaven' backwards and then bitch about that. Whether or not its fake.
My Opinion | Reviewer: Anonymous | 1/2/08
I think it was the whole package that originally and continually makes people think this is satanic. It is a while into the song before you realize the person is against it by nature, and the lyrics are just demonstrating the seductive powers of the adversary. But with the title, the cover, and the Iron Maiden Mascot in general, you can see where people get that opinion. Iron Maiden was asking for it, whether they deserved the bad publicity or not when the song came out. They also followed behind some other bands (Black Sabbath being the biggest culprit) who legitimately DID glorify satan in a few of their songs, and had blatant pictures of demons all over their stuff. So now you have a society that was on the look out and weary of this sort of thing. Same reason why Dungeons and Dragons got bad publicity. Maybe they could have chosen something other then demons and idols to put all over their early covers. You can't blame people for being skeptical about this sort of thing, and anytime you have skepticism, the extremists come out of hiding and run with it.
not satanic | Reviewer: AGE heat | 12/22/07
first i thinked this song was satanic bust a friend sent me this page and i saw that is the contrary, cause it is AGAINST satanism "This can't go on I must inform the lord" with that u can see its not satanic =)

okay all i know is this song isn't satanic. if you say this song is satanic it's like saying mr. crowley by Ozzy and Mama by MCR is satanic. most songs that seem satanic at first that are by a well known band usually have a deeper meaning that "worship satan"
that's all
Not satanic | Reviewer: Maiden fan | 12/14/07
Iron maiden rules, and this song is nowhere near being satanic. If you think this song is satanic, just look at the freaking lyrics. The song is about someone seeing a satanic ritual and getting hypnotised by it. That's like saying that the book of revelations is satanic because it mentions satan. Some people are just so ignorant...

FOLLOW THE WAY OF THE BEAST ...for it is the true and only way to go..satan is not evil satan is not the one who does wrong ..it is your god who has wronged you!
Revelations chapter 13, line 18. | Reviewer: claire | 12/12/07
to those who say that this song is satanic.....YOU PEOPLE ARE CRAZY!!!!!! SOOOOOO CRAZY!!!! the song begins with chapter 13, line 18 of Revelations!!!! come on guys.get serious! anyway.it's just a song. NOT a hymn to satan!! (actually i could say that this song is against satan) next time you'll think it's satanic or something just remember it begins with a line taken from Revelations!!!!!
wake up | Reviewer: mullet boi | 12/11/07
if i were to write a song about unicorns, i dont think any1 would have a problem. so wats the harm in writing a song about something that doesnt exist. every gospel music performer oput there is wasting their time.
This is not pro-satanism | Reviewer: Alex | 12/7/07
"This can't go on I must inform the lord"
If anything this a warning about how Satan can capture you so eaily, its not pro satan. You are blatantly a fool if you choose to overanalyze bruce's songs. Listen Brucie is the best singer ever, but not the best songwriter, his meanings are transparent. Steve harris, Writes most of the songs anyway, which are also simple. And Steve Harris is a very strong christian, go look it up. Trust me. Maiden is not Satanist. I have their entire works they have several songs that go against such beliefs. Now if you want an anti religious song you can probably go hate on Holy smoke. That song, however is just adressing the faults of the modern christian church and the corruption in its buerocracy. Its true. Even if you choose to take it back a few centuries, like say to 15th and 16th centuries, the church was so corrupt then that it lost all power, which is party which started the rennaisance. trust me maiden knows what they're talking about and they are most certainly not Satanistic, they love METAL they love the THRILL of it. My God, get your facts stright.
