Run to the Hills - better songwriting, melody + vocals, performance overall. But I'm a guitar guy. Even the dumbest song with an opening riff like Indians will win it for me. Add 1 in the W column for Indians.

Also, what are the rules in this thing?

I didn't really think this one through. They were just two similar songs in era, genre, and subject matter, so I wondered who would win in a CAGE MATCH.

I'm sure I'll think of more idiotic showdowns.

I got to go with Bruce Dickinson led Iron Maiden - Run to the Hills. If you asked me Among the Living versus Run to the Hills - I'm going with Anthrax, but just not a big fan on Indians.

Are you asking us to vote on which song is more "now"?

No, just a very simple "Who wins between...", using whatever subjective and arbitrary criteria you choose.

...is becoming an ironically popular goal song in the NHL (the chorus), as utilized at minimum by the Ducks and Flyers.

i should note that it's definitely a tough call, too. "manthem" is pretty great, but it's an issue of bouncing souls having plenty of other good songs, while pennywise will always = "bro hymn" in my mind.

Very good point, and this is the exact kind of rationale I was hoping for in this thread.

And "Manthem" may not even be the best song on that album due to the presence of "True Believers".

I'm sure it surprises no one that I have no clue what any of you are taking about.
I am hopelessly unhip.

Are you guys sure Thirsk didn't change his name to Jim Miller, went to Michigan State and then became a Bear QB?

Zack, there's a reason these two were pitted against one another. You'll have to just trust me. Have I ever led you astray?
