Which, although good for Maiden, shows how much of a joke the Grammys are. El Dorado is a pretty bland song as far as Maiden go and nowhere near the best song on the album.

I agree it is a joke. It was the final frontier w/ that killer video, then perhaps it could be in the discussion. The Grammys are a lame duck and have been for decades. It is about what sells. And Iron Maiden is selling. Now if they picked Final Frontier (w/ that killer video) then we may have something to discuss. I would have gone with Slayer on that one.
