Gimme the prize

I think Gimme the prize is also an underrated song, it's same thunderous as "princess of the Universe" but what's your opinion? Thanks buddies

I love it - especially the guitar-solo. Somewhere I read that Brian mixed his guitar-part with the sound of bag-pipes. Absolutely amazing.

I think it's all just the red special. Think of "Good company" - a whole Dixieband just one guitar !

Don't like it- there is some great guitar work here, but I can't stand the production- it's too busy, it's just... The melody is almost lost because everything else is pretty flat- heavy, but flat... Just like the rest (with 2-3 exceptions) of AKOM album... I agree though- solo is great...

which of the AKOM songs are your favourite? My opinion Gimme The Prize are also just to busy, but it's thunderous and that's what I like, like also I Want It All

I really love them both and I love when Freddie goes heavy singing too.I'd die to hear a version of Gimme the Prize by my second all time favourite singer,Rob Halford of Judas Priest.
It fit perfectly his vocal range and would sound awesome IMHO.

It would have made an amazing opener for the shows.
