The metal-head crystal ball shows signs of another title track victory.
IMHO, "Crusader" is the top tune on this album. Yet, compared to the rest of the tunes...it seems out of place.
So far in these polls, the results pretty much look like the songs you'd find on a compilation album.

"Crusader" for me. I enjoy "Just Let Me Rock" as well.

Voted Crusader. I dig Just Let Me Rock, Sailing to America, and A Little Bit Of What You Fancy as well.

I'll go a little outside the box on this one. "Sailing To America" for me! I like "Crusader," too, of course, but I prefer the orchestrated version.

Another vote here for Crusader. I am also partial to A little bit... / Set me free / and Sailing to America.

I was thinking about future heavy metal CD possibilities - and Saxon - and Motorhead - they alone came to mind - These 2 bands are big time HEAVY hitters - for decades and decades - tour warriors Bad A**

Before this poll gets buried behind pages of threads, I just want to state that I am super surprised "Sailing to America" only received one vote. I knew the title track would dominate, but I thought Sailing would get at least a 3 or 4 votes; it is such a killer track.

Wow, interesting how "Crusader" dominated this poll. I'm going with "Bad Boys (Live to Rock N' Roll)"

It's a Saxon classic, possibly their most memorable and best song ever.
The rest of the album is definitely not their best material.

Understatement, aside from the classic and "Sailing to America", the rest is pure drivel!

Great song, highly underrated, yet in no way is this going to trump the title track!

Slightly off topic, but if you click on my signature, you get to my rateyourmusic-page and that's where I have the Saxon discography ranked.
