"For the Greater Good of God" gets my vote too.

I saw them perform the album in its entirety last Fall and I gotta say the songs had way more punch live, especially "Greater Good."

Man, I haven't even had a desire to play this one since the week I bought it. I think the muddy production killed this one for me. I'll have to dig it out again and give it a shot soon.

Only one's I've heard (thus far) are "Different World" and "The Reincarnation Of Benjamin Breeg". "Different World" gets my vote. Awesome song. Cool

Love the music video to it (the mostly animated one, as opposed to the plain one that just shows the band playing).

I went with For the Greater Good of God.Its been ahwile since I've listened to this,need to pull it out again

I picked Reincarnation of Benjamin Breeg. It is perhaps one of the most unusual Maiden songs I've heard (keep in mind I've never heard their b-sides). In reality it is a tie between that and These Colors Don't Run but I could only pick one. All the songs are good though.

VERY tough to pick one - I like them all, very tough to chose, but I picked For The Greater Good Of God - all the songs are great, not a weak song on the CD. It was awesome seeing AMOLAD played live

Went with These Colors Don't Run. This album has really grown on me over the year. Not an all time classic but one that is much better than I originally thought.

I went with "Lord of Light". I like all the songs on this one though.

This album doesn't rank in even my top 10 Iron Maiden albums ("Dance of Death" does), but it's a very good and solid album.

Coincidentally, I was cranking this album yesterday.

Me too.

Brighter Than A Thousand Suns is an awesome tune. I love the main riff. Really heavy, dirty sound that reminds me of some of late-era Motorhead.

To be honest, the album is so freakin long, I haven't been able to listen to the whole thing yet.

I really love the whole album, but I went with Longest Day because I like the movie and that's what song stood out the most the first time I spun this disc. Peace.

I absolutely love the riff on "Brighter Than a Thousand Suns", so I would have to go with that as my fav.

Brighter Than a Thousand Suns
Different World is equally liked by me.
