Song #240

Hallowed Be Thy Name by Iron Maiden

It was released in 1982 in their album The Number of the Beast

Fun fact:  Allmusic has describes it as "perhaps the most celebrated of the band's extended epics; it's the tale of a prisoner about to be hanged, featuring some of Harris' most philosophical lyrics." Several band-members have since stated that it is one of their favourite tracks, with Bruce Dickinson describing it as "fantastic" and that performing it live is like "narrating a movie to the audience."

Song #239

100 Bad Days by AJR

Released on January 29, 2019.

Fun Fact: The trio told Billboard: As a band, and as guys in their twenties, most of our experiences end in rejection, failure, and bad days. We wanted to write a realistic look at that… what doesn’t kill you doesn’t always make you stronger. But what doesn’t kill you always makes you more interesting.”

Song #234

Keep The Faith by Bon Jovi

It was released in 1992 in their album Keep The Faith

Fun fact: The music video for the song was directed by Phil Joanouand shot both in black and white and colour. It combines scenes with whole band playing live on the stage and band members in New York City. Scenes in New York are mainly featuring Jon Bon Jovi and Richie Sambora appearing in various parts of the city, but the whole band we can see only in the beginning and the end of the video.

Song #224

Metal Guru by T. Rex

It was released in 1972 in their album The Slider

Fun fact:

Bolan himself described the song's apparent religious references as this:

Is a festival of life song. I relate 'Metal Guru' to all gods around. I believe in a god, but I have no religion. With 'Metal Guru', it's like someone special, it must be a godhead. I thought how god would be, he'd be all alone without a telephone. I don't answer the phone any more. I have codes where people ring me at certain times.

Song #223

I See a Dreamer by CG5

It was released on January 13, 2021

Fun Fact: Every illustration in the YouTube video is a different iconic moment from these manhunts, including jumping from a tower of blocks with frost walker boots (which is also depicted in the song’s cover art), and hopping across lava with wooden boats.
