Favorite Paul/Bruce/Blaze Maiden vocal performances

Simple, just name the tracks you feel each studio vocalist performs the best on. To make it a bit more challenging, you can't list more than 5 songs per vocalist.

In no particular order:

Paul Di'Anno

1. Strange World (I just realized how great Di'Anno sounded on this track. So much emotion in his vocals)
2. Remember Tomorrow
3. Purgatory
4. Killers
5. Phantom of the Opera

Bruce Dickinson

1. Hallowed Be Thy Name
2. Seventh Son of a Seventh Son
3. Gangland
4. Caught Somewhere in Time
5. Rime of the Ancient Mariner

Blaze Bayley

1. The Clansman
2. Sign of the Cross
3. Man on the Edge
4. Blood on the World's Hands
5. Lord of the Flies
 
The only track that really stands out for me vocally is "Children of the Damned". Best vocals on any Iron Maiden song, bar none.
 
Best Bruce live performances, that can be obtained in pro-shot video versions, are 22 Acacia Avenue from Dortmund 1983, and Children Of The Damned from Santiago 2009.
