I've never listened to Iron Maiden so I was glad to have the opportunity to give it a go. It's comically bad. Maybe it was relevant when it was released but, in this era, it's like a Spinal Tap spoof of early metal.

Not that I was ever really a fan but I appreciated it for what it was when it came out. Now, it's really hard to listen to her vocal affect and the super 90's production.

I get its significance but I can't stand it.

It's interesting to listen back to this one. The songs are strong and catchy but Sheryl hadn't quite found her voice yet. TNMC almost a Rickie Lee Jones tribute album.

Schmaltzing up otherwise good songs.
