Call me crazy, or don’t, but I have never even come close to enjoying one second of any song from the group named after the female torture device.‚ But hey, that’s just me, and these tunes are likely to sell like hotcakes (someone is going to have to explain to me why hotcakes are popular).
You are crazy…
The iron maiden was not a “female” torture device. Where did you get that idea?
