The title of this song actually comes from William Shakespeare's Julius Ceasar "The evil that men do lives after them; The good is oft interrèd with their bones"and Bruce often uses the full quote to introduce the song see the Rock In Rio live version.

I'd say this is the best song on this album. It has the sound of Somewhere in Time. Even though the video shows live performances, it's a studio recording. Hurm, the evil that men do, lives on and on. On to the title track. Keep rocking Maiden Hurm.

All is possible. I have read fans stating that Can I play with madness is the best Iron Maiden song, so this answer is not weird.

One of the best Iron Maiden songs - 'The evil that men do' 🤘🤘🔥🔥Adrian Smith's guitar riff (he played the solo)... w/ Bruce Dickinson's and Steve Harris' lyrics and musical input.

Super awesome, My favourite track on the album, Back in the day where I lived in the UK (South West Cumbria) we had no satellite or cable tv, no MTV or Music Box, we had The Power Hour, Top of the Pops and the Chart Show, It would be the highlight of the week when this video was played, Imagine the awesomeness when I got hold of a copy of Maiden England, I wore that vhs tape out, good times

Dude keep going ... this is the most epic " Maiden " reaction train iv'e ever seen! Go all the way to their new stuff and appreciate how they evolve as absolute musician mastery. 80s , ,90s ( which I cant wait to see) and 2000 + all have their absolute bangers. Once you get to the 2000s you MUST watch the Rock in Rio gig ! Bravo brother!!!

This song has been amongst my Maiden favourites since the 80s and no.1 on the album for me. Glad you liked it. I love the dark lyrics and there is a subtle Maiden gallop to it. As for all truly great songs you’ll never get sick of hearing it again and again….

I wish I could erase my Maiden memory and listen to Maiden again for the 1st time, man I miss when I got goosebumps when I first heard this song or Alexander The Great, when I used to jam in my car with Caught Somewhere In Time, when I used to headbang so hard when I listen to 22 Acacia Avenue. It's never the same now, cause I repeated their songs for 349539 times when I got into the band :(

This was the one along with Can I Play with Madness that was playing on the radio a lot, Can l Play was more of an Mtv promo video, this right here, was the first time in my life I have ever seen The Evil That Man Do on video, did not know there was a video of it, essentially the video was taken out of highlights from Maiden England. Now, the whole album it's fantastic and Seventh Son along with The Prophecy are the pick of the album for me, to me these two songs show how creative these boys were on this album. To me My top 2 Maiden albums, are Somewhere and 7th Son.

The title track is epic. Clairvoiant is fantastic, the prophecy is different, but great as well. Only the good die young another killer track. This is a concept album. The lyrics of all the songs are telling the story of the 7th son of the 7th son.
