Inspired by the Omen II, "The Number of the Beast" is perhaps Iron Maiden's biggest hit. They incorporated the Omen, the Book of Revelations, and a poem by Tam O'Shanter to frighten critics in America and abroad. The song repeats the number "666" several times which freaked out the Tipper Gores of the world and resulted in Chile banning the song. Even the video brought controversy. The band edited out Eddie after people complained about his frightening nature.
Happy Halloween!
