Your favorites of these Iron Maiden songs from the 80s (PICK 7)

[KevShmev]

Feels like a good time to do this.

And there obviously wasn't enough room for everything, as I am sure someone will list favorites that are not in the poll.

You can vote for up to 7.

I went (for now) with:

Powerslave
Alexander the Great
Run to the Hills
The Number of the Beast
Prowler
Killers
Rime of the Ancient Mariner

[Zantera]

This was hard...

Powerslave
Moonchild
Alexander the Great
To Tame a Land
2 Minutes to Midnight
Phantom of the Opera
Killers

[Stadler]

Powerslave
Murders In the Rue Morgue
The Number of the Beast
Hallowed Be Thy Name
Where Eagles Dare
Children of the Damned
Rime of the Ancient Mariner

The only questionable one is "The Number...", and I only put that in because it was SO good live this last tour.  The place was, literally, on fire.    There are other songs, not on this list, that I like better.

[Zydar]

Moonchild
Powerslave
Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son
Aces High
Wasted Years
Hallowed Be Thy Name
Infinite Dreams

This was tough. Maiden is one of those bands where I can't point out one specific song that I consider to be their #1 (like for instance LtL with DT).

[King Postwhore]

Flight of Icarus
Aces High
Wasted Years
The Number of the Beast
The Trooper
2 Minutes to Midnight
Where Eagles Dare

[DTA]

Powerslave
Alexander The Great
Hallowed Be Thy Name
Aces High
Caught Somewhere In Time
Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son
Rime Of The Ancient Mariner

[ProfessorPeart]

Phantom of the Opera
The Prisoner
To Tame a Land
Murders In the Rue Morgue
Wasted Years
Caught Somewhere in Time
Rime of the Ancient Mariner

[Cool Chris]

The easy picks:
Flight of Icarus
Phantom of the Opera
Hallowed Be Thy Name

The second tier:
Wrathchild
Children of the Damned
Rime of the Ancient Mariner

Needing to fill out the list to get to 7:
Infinite Dreams

[TAC]

Hallowed Be Thy Name
Phantom Of The Opera
Caught Somewhere In Time
Children Of The Damned
Seventh Son


Oops, I only voted for 5...

6  & 7 would be..

22 Acacia Avenue
Where Eagles Dare

[nick_z]

Very difficult, of course...

My votes went to:

Children Of The Damned
Hallowed Be Thy Name
Powerslave
Caught Somewhere In Time
Wasted Years
Moonchild
Infinite Dreams

[wolfking]

Powerslave
7th Son
Hallowed
Infinite Dreams
Aces High
Wasted Years
Somewhere in Time

[wolfking]

Hallowed Be Thy Name
Phantom Of The Opera
Caught Somewhere In Time
Children Of The Damned
Seventh Son


Oops, I only voted for 5...

6  & 7 would be..

22 Acacia Avenue
Where Eagles Dare

22 isn't an option.  But if it was it would be one of my first picked.

[Setlist Scotty]

Given that SiT is my favorite of theirs, Alexander the Great, Wasted Years and Caught Somewhere in Time were easy picks. For the other 4, I went with Powerslave, To Tame a Land, Hallowed Be Thy Name and Where Eagles Dare.

3 honorable mentions from that list (to make it an even 10) would be The Prisoner, Aces High and The Trooper.

[Lupton]

Moonchild
The Prisoner
Alexander the Great
Seventh Son of a Seventh Son
Caught Somewhere in Time
Infinite Dreams
Rime of the Ancient Mariner

[IDontNotDoThings]

Infinite Dreams
Rime Of The Ancient Mariner
Hallowed By Thy Name
The Trooper

^ are all in my top 10 Maiden songs. After that, I went with

Children Of The Damned
Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son
Powerslave

[ThatOneGuy2112]

.

[pg1067]

I got six pretty easy:

To Tame a Land -- My all time favorite Maiden song.
Phantom of the Opera
Powerslave
Seventh Son of a Seventh Song -- Incredible song on an overall weak album.
Where Eagles Dare
Hallowed Be Thy Name

The last one was a bit tough.  I was about to go with The Trooper, but I switched at the last second to The Number of the Beast.  Rime of the Ancient Mariner, Murders in the Rue Morgue, Aces High and Flight of Icarus would have been next.
