Your Top 10 Maiden Songs

This is probably going to change *immediately*
I've held off on posting here because I really can't tie myself down to ten, let alone put them in order

1) Seventh Son of a Seventh Son
2) Infinite Dreams
3) Paschendale
4) Powerslave
5) Phantom of the Opera
6) Alexander The Great
7) Montsegur
8) The Talisman
9) Children of the Damned
10) Brighter Than A Thousand Suns

Bubbling under - 22 Acacia Avenue, Wasted Years, Moonchild, Dance of Death
 
I keep coming back to Remember Tomorrow. That would probably be in my top 20. Or 25. There's too much choice
 
I must admit that I first thought this list was a joke. I certainly won't criticize your choice (this is great to see that some songs of their catalogue is appreciated by some fans at least), but Gangland, New Frontier, Public Enema number One or Can I play are really unusual choices. Hope you don't dislike Rime of the AM, Hallowed be thy Name or To Tame a Land...

To Tame a Land is kinda slow at some parts, still in the top 50 probably.

Well now that I'm more of a fan than was back when I first joined, I figured I'd post a new top 10 not from my iPod. Again, in no particular order:

1. Wasted Years
2. The Prisoner
3. The Clairvoyant
4. Still Life
5. Flight of Icarus
6. Total Eclipse
7. The Evil That Men Do
8. Killers
9. Rime of the Ancient Mariner
10. Alexander the Great

There have been so many songs I've come to know and love between then and now it was almost hard to pick off the top of my head but this one is pretty solid at present but may change again in the future. These seem to be the songs I get the most excited about when they come on. Some songs didn't even leave my old list. :lol:

2. When the Wild Wind Blows
3. Run to the Hills
4. Aces High
5. Hallowed be thy Name

I've seen lists without Hallowed Be Thy Name. Sheer sacrilege!

1) Hallowed Be Thy Name (just ordered the coolest Maiden Hallowed be Thy Name T Shirt)

4. Seventh Son of A Seventh Son
5. Caught Somewhere In Time
6. Sign of the Cross

7. Killers
8. Where Eagles Dare
9. Paschendale
10. Out of the Silent Planet
 
Could make a top 50 with all the material that I would consider 8/10 and above, but if I had a Sig Saur to my head......

1. Rime of the Ancient Mariner
2. Hallowed Be Thy Name
3. Powerslave
4. The Trooper
5. Paschendale
6. The Clairvoyant
7. The Talisman
8. Fear of the Dark (live)
9. Aces High
10. The Evil That Men Do.

That was too hard. I'm going to sit in the shower with my clothes on and a fifth of vodka.
 
1)Revelations
2)Infinite Dreams
3)Where Eagles Dare
4)Drifter
5)Moonchild
6)Rime
7)Remember Tomorrow
8)Rue Morgue
9)22 Acacia
10)Die With Your Boots On
 
A near impossible task. That being said, here you go:

10. Heaven Can Wait
9. Powerslave
8. The Prisoner
7. Killers
6. Fear of the Dark (Live From Fear to Eternity version)
5. Moonchild
4. Paschendale
3. The Clairvoyant
2. The Trooper
1. Hallowed Be Thy Name

In my opinion, making a top 10 list for Maiden is ridiculous. A real Sophie's Choice.
 
10. Wasting Love
9. Wrathchild
8. Sign of the Cross
7. Face in the Sand
6. Dance of Death
5. When Eagles Dare
4. The Evil That Men Do
