Bruce Dickinson's best vocal performance

I'll expand my list:

Studio versions: Caught Somewhere In Time, Dance Of Death, Infinite Dreams, Lord Of Light, The Talisman;

Live versions: Fear Of The Dark (from Rock In Rio), Hallowed Be Thy Name (from Beast Over Hammersmith);
 
Where Eagles Dare is a good one, though I always loved The Thin Line Between Love and Hate.
 
Although I don't like the song, he does a great job on Talisman. Also anything off POM is great.
 
I always really liked his performance on the studio version of Moonchild as it really features most of the facets of his great voice.  Clear on the acoustic intro, dark and foreboding with a tinge of rasp during the verses, and soaring during the chorus.

Second would be Where Eagles Dare.  That song, musically, is pretty basic.  But the vocal lines and melodies really put it over the top.
 
Studio : Caught Somewhere in Time, Infinite Dreams, Powerslave and Starblind.

Live : Hallowed Be Thy Name from Beast Over Hammersmith is not from this world.
