Keyboards statement[edit]

This statement on the article "For this album all the keyboard parts were performed by band founder/bassist Steve Harris whereas on previous albums the keyboard parts were handled by session musician Michael Kenney." is -I think- not true. From what I know, Steve plays the keyboard most of the time, Michael plays it live, but Steve does the recordings, he's a good keyboard player. I think it was in this interview I recently heard him say that he plays them http://youtube.com/watch?v=d9RSCkUr43M it's an old interview, but I believee is the one who playd them on old albums too, I don't remember exactly, it might say otherwise but could someone try to get more details on this?

Corrections[edit]

As the article says:

--- Como Estais Amigos is one of the rare slow-songs by Maiden and appears to be dedicated to the casualties of a military conflict (though it is not specified which, neither is the reason for the song's Spanish title). ---

This is not true, it is known that this song is dedicated to the argentinians killend in the falkland wars... This must be changed —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 66.176.121.47 (talk) 07:18, 16 March 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Pronounciation[edit]

How is the title pronounced? Is it literally Virtual ex-aye or Virtual 11 (the roman numeral)?

I pronounce it Virtual 11 - Prodigenous Zee 09:47, 30 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Its Virtual eleven according to me 220.227.77.169 11:02, 18 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

A fair use rational has been added some time ago. Just so nobody gets confused --67.172.13.176 (talk) 07:08, 26 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Logo[edit]

There's no mention of the new squashed 'iron maiden' logo. I think it's prety important my self —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.140.245.93 (talk) 22:14, 8 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Trivia[edit]

"To date, "Don't Look to the Eyes of a Stranger" is the only Iron Maiden song played lower than the standard E tuning."

I don't think, that this statement is right. First of all, what is the tuning? Eb? It should be there. I do still think, that it's played from standard tuning.

And two newer songs, The Legacy and Mother of Mercy have guitar parts played in dropped D tuning. 88.192.104.142 (talk) 15:06, 18 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
