Shuranegro:

The Number of the Beast es el tercer álbum de estudio de la banda británica de heavy metal, Iron Maiden. Editado el 29 de marzo de 1982. Su principal novedad, es el cambio del vocalista Paul Di'Anno, por Bruce Dickinson.

El álbum dio un gran salto en popularidad llegando alcanzar el primer puesto en las listas de ventas en el Reino Unido.

Éste álbum y el grupo fueron tachados de satanismo por la temática de algunas canciones; como la portada del álbum, (en la que se ve el icono Eddie the Head con una marioneta del Diablo, y al Diablo con una marioneta del mismo Eddie.

La portada de este disco estaba pensada para el sencillo "Purgatory" del álbum Killers, pero cuando Derek Riggs la terminó vieron que era demasiado buena como para utilizarse en un sencillo.

Se trata de uno de los álbumes más renombrados de Iron Maiden pues podemos encontrar en él algunos de los temas más populares entre los seguidores del grupo, como "The Number of the Beast", "Run to the Hills", ó "Hallowed Be Thy Name", canciones que aún hoy son frecuentes en sus conciertos.

The Number Of The Beast

[Steve Harris]

Lyrics:

"Woe to you, Oh Earth and Sea, for the Devil sends the
beast with wrath, because he knows the time is short...
Let him who hath understanding reckon the number of the
beast for it is a human number, its number is Six hundred and
sixty six."

I left alone my mind was blank
I needed time to think to get the memories from my mind

What did I see can I believe that what I saw
that night was real and not just fantasy

Just what I saw in my old dreams were they
reflections of my warped mind staring back at me

'Cos in my dream it's always there the evil face that twists my mind
and brings me to despair

The night was black was no use holding back
'Cos I just had to see was someone watching me
In the mist dark figures move and twist
Was this all for real or some kind of hell
666 the number of the beast
Hell and fire was spawned to be released

Torches blazed and sacred chants were praised
As they start to cry hands held to the sky
In the night the fires burning bright
The ritual has begun Satan's work is done
666 the number of the beast
Sacrifice is going on tonight

This can't go on I must inform the law
Can this still be real or just some crazy dream
But I feel drawn towards the evil chanting hordes
They seem to mesmerise me ... can't avoid their eyes
666 the number of the beast
666 the one for you and me

I'm coming back I will return
And I'll possess your body and I'll make you burn
I have the fire I have the force
I have the power to make my evil take it's course
