Make TAC an Iron Maiden playlist!

[TAC]

We are making the drive to Disney on Friday. It's going to be an Iron Maiden ride. But I need some help.
Here's my request:
Make me an Iron Maiden playlist!

Some rules:
1. Everyone's playlist should be no more than 60-65 minutes.
2. Once a song is used, it cannot be used again. So if Hallowed is on the first playlist submitted, don't put it on yours.
3. I'm an old guy and I still think of albums as Side 1/ Side 2. Please take into account album flow and transitions.
4. Give your playlist a title.
5. Do not mix Live and Studio. If you want to make a live playlist, remember that if someone uses Fear Of The Dark from DOTR, there can be no other live versions of it used.
It is OK if a studio version is used in a studio playlist, and a live version is used in a live playlist. Does that make sense?
6. It's ok to use b sides. Just remember that if it's a live B side, it should go on a live playlist.
7. Other than the live albums, you can also cull your live choices from the following soundboard shows: London 12-10-90, Gothenberg 7-3-05, and Stockholm 11-18-06.

Winners will be announced when I return from vacation.

Thank you very much.
Now let's have at it!

I like 'em! Keep them coming.

Yup. GSP to the NJT.

Spent last April vacation on your neck of the woods.

[Sir GuitarCozmo]

I recall.  You gotta let me know next time!  *shakes fist*

[bosk1]

Given rule #2:

1.  This sucks for people who come late to the party when a lot of the good songs are already taken, and gives an unfair advantage to those who see the thread early in terms of it being a "contest."
2.  If enough people participate, you are eventually going to just get every Iron Maiden song, which kinda defeats the purpose, don't you think?

Care to reconsider that rule?

[TAC]

Well, the winner comment was more tongue in cheek.

I am going to program each playlist on my iPod, and I don't want to hear repeats.
There's plenty to choose from still. Ideally I would love to have every song represented.

Besides, you'll always be a winner in my book!

If you didn't want to blow monkey balls, you should've left the monkeys at home!


Also Bosk, I was thinking while Scorp was doing his Maiden Top 25, that I would make a playlist out of his and Dream Teams, but then I was thinking that I didn't want the repeats. I could listen to their discography, but I was really looking to randomize the lists. So I figured I would call on my friends at DTF to help.

See, that wasn't so bad!
Nice list.

[bosk1]

Cool.  Hope you like it.  I'm actually going to try to listen to it now myself.  I may change the order a bit if it seems like the flow would be better with a different song order, but I wanted to post it before someone else took the songs.

EDIT:  You know, I'm pretty happy with this track order, actually.  I like this list a lot despite having to make a few changes because of other people picking songs I was going to pick initially.

2. Can I Play With Madness
3. Wildest Dreams

'Can I play with Mickey'

Nice.  I think you and I might be in the lead for the "best title" award.

[wolfking]

Yeah, I liked yours and that's why I thought I'd come up with something similar.  The tracklist was hard since most of the classics have been scooped up already.

[bosk1]

Yeah, and I took a bunch myself.  Sorry.  Put in Quest For Fire. 

But seriously, if you really want one, I'll give up Flight Of Icarus since I'm heavy on PoM tracks already, and I was thinking about subbing it out for Wrathchild.

[wolfking]

Nah, all good mate.  I went for a more upbeat vibe so my songs mostly fit.  Didn't realise Wrathchild hadn't been taken.

[TAC]

Thanks Wolf!

[wolfking]

Thanks Wolf!

Anytime brotha!!

EDIT:  Looking back at my setlist, I don't mind it.  It's underrated, slightly obscure but quite consistent.  Quite happy with my efforts there.

[WebRaider]

So jealous of the trip (I'm a Disney fanatic)... trying my best for a trip after Christmas this year. Hope you all have an awesome time!




M. I. C. K. E. Y - B. E. A. S. T (play on the old Mickey Mouse song...)

[Mladen]

I came in late and most of the amazing songs were already taken, so I kinda gave up. Sorry to disappoint you, TAC.

But I'm so listening to these playlists.

No self respecting Maiden fan gives up! Let's go!

Well that's what I was going for. It's easy to list their greatest songs, but I was looking to mix it up.
On our trip down in February, I simply listed to their discog in order. I still have a hankering for some Maiden, so I just wanted a fresh order.

[Elite]

Who said all the good songs were taken?

Yeah, I wondered about that as a closer, just fitted with the theme well.
