math can be fun ...

check the length of all Iron Maiden songs from the 14 albums + Virus and then divide by 135 (number of songs) so I'd get the length of the average Maiden song.

The result was 5:36 seconds!


So I deleted from my playlist all Maiden songs but those with 5min~ length.

I had like 25 songs in the end, so how would I choose THE ONE?!

So I pasted all the names of all the songs on Microsoft Word and counted the number of characters on them all (didn't count spaces) and divided by 135.

The result was 14 letters!

So the average Maiden song was 5:35 and had 14 letters (spaces not included)!


Then I checked the list with 25 songs and left those with name length close to 14 characters. In the end there were only two songs with exactly that number of letters.

And the closest to the correct length, with 5 minutes and 40 seconds and 14 letters is...
