- Iron Maiden: The Phantom of the Opera (there's no arguing about it)
- Killers: Purgatory
- The Number of the Beast: Hallowed be Thy Name (Honorable mention: Children of the Damned)
- Piece of Mind: Revelations (Flight of Icarus would be my second choice)
- Powerslave: Rime of the Ancient Mariner (though the solos in Powerslave give me the chills)
- Somewhere in time: Heaven can Wait (REALLY difficult choice. Such greatness...)
- Seventh Son of a Seventh Son: Title track (TOUGHEST OF ALL CHOICES. I love the album in its entirety).- - No Prayer for the Dying: Public Enema Number One
- Fear of the Dark: Title track (first Maiden song I ever listened to, and still the greatest after all these years)
- The X Factor: Lord of the Flies (Honorable mention: Judgement of Heaven)
- Virtual XI: When Two Worlds Collide (tough one... Futureal and The Clansman are just awesome)
- Brave New World: Out of the Silent Planet (the whole album is a masterpiece, but there's something to this song that I can't explain...)
- Dance of Death: Title Track (Top-notch Maiden. Honorable mention: Rainmaker)
- A Matter of Life and Death: Lord of Light (Geez... do I have to pick only one?)
- The Final Frontier: Starblind (The Alchemist and Isle of Avalon are in the top 3)
- The Book of Souls: Title Track (A month ago I would have picked The Red and The Black)
 
Phantom of the Opera
Killers
Children of the Damned (Hallowed is a better song IMO but the recorded version isnt a patch on the real thing)
Where Eagles Dare
Rime of the Ancient Mariner
Caught Somewhere in Time
Infinite Dreams (Cant believe I didnt go for SSoaSS)
Run Silent Run Deep
Judas Be My Guide (Similar scenario to Hallowed, recorded version of FotD isnt a patch on live version)
Sign of the Cross (honourable mention to The Unbeliever)
The Clansman
Brave New World
Dance of Death (Not my favourite album but possibly the hardest call for me with Paschendale)
The Legacy (or Lord of Light or Breeg, again not my favourite album but one of the trickiest calls for me)
The Talisman
The Book of Souls (Another tricky call with IESF)

I've had the privilege of seeing 9 of these tracks live and will hopefully make that 10 on the current tour. Just look at some of those tracks, indeed we are privileged to love such a band!

Difficult one, obviously. There are some that (for me) are a given, others that are more difficult. But okay:

IM - Phantom Of The Opera (totally)
Killers - The Ides Of March (yes, I know it's just a short instrumental, but to me the song is a 10/10, being the only one of its kind on this record)
666- Hallowed (totally)
Piece - The Trooper (same)
Powerslave - Aces High (although 23:58, Powerslave and Rime definitely give AH a run for the money)
SIT - Wasted Years (ATG comes close!)
SSOASS - SSOASS (really impossible. It used to be The Evil, but The Clairvoyant and Infinite Dreams are incredible too. I vote for the title track, but this one is hard)
No Prayer- No Prayer (because of the beautiful melodies)
Fear - Fear
The X Factor - Sign of The Cross
Virtual XI - The Clansman
BNW - Blood Brothers (though, a very consistent album)
DOD - Rainmaker (although it's really a tie between this one, the title track and Paschendale)
AMOLAD- Breeg
TFF - the title track (without the somewhat embarrasing Satelite 15)
TBOs- The Red And The Black
 
IM- Transylvania
Killers- purgatory

PoM- The Trooper
