Yet Another Maiden Thread

There have already been threads on favorite album, guitarist, and favorite of the first two. But this one will probably require a little more thought. What is your top 10 Iron Maiden Songs?

These are mine:


1. Wasted Years

2. Stranger In A Strange Land

3. 2 Minutes to Midnight

4. Fear Of The Dark

5. Still Life

6. Rime of the Ancient Mariner

7. Infinite Dreams

8. Murders In The Rue Morgue (first song of the DiAnno years I ever heard)

9. The Prisoner

10. Judgment Of Heaven (although I do cringe a little when Blaze yells "Yah, yah!!!!")

I'm going to try and grab one from each studio album except X-Factor, Virtual XI, Dance, and A Matter of Life and Death; here we go in no particular order:

1. Phantom of the Opera
2. Murders in the Rue Morgue
3. Hallowed Be Thy Name
4. Flight of Icarus
5. Powerslave
6. Wasted Years
7. The Evil That Men Do
8. Bring Your Daughter...to the Slaughter
9. From Here to Eternity
10. The Wicker Man

1: Alexander the Great
2: The Nomad
3: Judas Be My Guide
4: Face in the Sand
5: The Evil That Men Do
6: Murders in the Rue Morgue
7: For the Greater Good of God
9: Remember Tomorrow
10: Invaders
11: Rime of the Ancient Mariner
12: Caught Somewhere in Time
13: Mother Russia
14: Fear of the Dark
15: Sign of the Cross
16: The Educated Fool
17: Where Eagles Dare
18: MoonChild
19: The Prisoner
20: Infinite Dreams

I couldn't keep it to 10 ... it's impossible.
The list would go on and on and on and on . . . . .

Man this is a tough one to think on cause there are so many equally good songs, so dont count the order as far as best to least, simply could not happen but off the top of my head here is a quick 10 I could think of in a rush before work:

1. Infinite Dreams
2. For the Greater Good of God
3. Benjamin Breeg
4 Wasted Years
5 Hallowed Be Thy Name
6 Rime of the Ancient Mariner
7. Loniliness of the Long Distance Runner
8. Blood Brothers
9. Dance of Death
10. Sign of the Cross

Man I could keep going!!!!!!

2. Dance of Death
3. The Wicker Man
4. Caught Somewhere in Time
5. Tailgunner
6. Remember Tomorrow
7. Alexander the Great
8. The Number of the Beast
