Five song ranking

A nice way to pass the time. The task is as follows: someone posts five Maiden songs (without order), the next person rates them in their personal best to least good and posts five new songs (and so on).

Here are the first five ones:

Remember tomorrow
The thin line between love and hate
Deja vu
Rainmaker
Lightning strikes twice

Revelations
Powerslave
Bring Your Daughter To The Slaughter
If Eternity Should Fail
Empire of The Clouds

(had to skip one, add Flash Of The Blade as a honorary 6th if you want)
 
Empire of the Clouds - still one of my favorite Maiden songs.
Powerslave - one of the tightest metal songs.
If Eternity Should Fail - monster album opener.
Revelations - great song but way better live.
Bring Your Daughter… to the Slaughter - fun anthem.

Ghost of the Navigator
The Longest Day
Rainmaker
Stratego
Coming Home
 
The longest day (one of my favorites on AMOLAD)
Ghost of the navigator
Stratego
Rainmaker
Coming home

Tough decision, as the last three songs are very close in terms of their similarity to my taste.

***

Lost in a lost world
The edge of darkness
Dance of death
The man who would be king
Can I play with madness
 
Lost in a Lost World (epic intro and outro, and overall a really solid track)
Dance of Death (kind of feels like it’s aiming to be a new “The Number of the Beast,” but it’s well constructed)
The Edge of Darkness (nice and moody)
Can I Play with Madness
The Man Who Would Be King

***

Sun and Steel
Flash of the Blade
Stranger in A Strange Land
Death or Glory
Be Quick or Be Dead
 
Stranger in a Strange Land (just wow)
Sun and Steel (one of their most guitar-fun short rockers)
Flash of the Blade
Be Quick or Be Dead
Death or Glory

Fun list, all good or great songs!
