favourite 3 consecutive songs?

Children of the Damned - The Prisoner - 22 Acacia Avenue

Classics all of them. CotD and 22AA are both top 10 Maiden songs for me..

Ah yes, the three slightly overlooked (I wouldn't say underrated as nothing on NotB can really be considered so) gems of the golden era.

The Prisoner is a top 5 song for me for sure.

Have you guys seen when Bruce performed it with Skunkworks? That was a sweet version!
 
The Wicker Man, Ghost of the Navigator, Brave New World  :edmetal:

But it was really tough - these are the other ones that I really like:
Caught Somewhere in Time, Wasted Years, Sea of Madness
Infinite Dreams, Can I Play with Madness, The Evil That Men Do
The Evil That Men Do, 7th Son of 7th Son, The Prophecy
Be Quick Or Be Dead, From Here to Eternity, Afraid to Shoot Strangers
No More Lies, Montsegur, Dance of Death
The Talisman, The Man Who Would Be King, When the Wild Wind Blows
 
Right now I would answer

Ghost of the Navigator - Brave New World - Blood Brothers.

It could well change tomorrow. Any combo taken from the last 5 on SSOASS, as well as the last three on Powerslave, first three on SiT and several others already mentioned are great. Still, the three mentioned are all among my favourite past-2000 songs. All three songs were also great live. No, wait. Blood Brothers was not great. It was magic.
 
i feel compelled to post, a bit of a bump but cant be having the worst topic without a balance with the good or someone might think of us as being negative  :bigsmile:
for me its got to be Isle of Avalon - Starblind - The Talisman, from the first listen through to now these are still my clear favourites of TFF and very high in my maiden catalogue.
The only trio coming close is FTGGOG - Lord o Light - Legacy but itd have more of achance for me if FTGGOG and TROBB swapped places
 
Tough choice, but I'm going with For the Greater Good of God, Lord of Light, and the Legacy. Ask me tomorrow and I`ll probably give a different answer...
 
I've narrowed down my choice to these three:

Where Eagles Dare >>> Revelations >>> Flight of Icarus
Children of the Damned >>> The Prisoner >>> 22 Acacia Avenue

It's a difficult choice, but I'm leaning towards the trio from PoM.
 
I'll go with Where Eagles Dare/Revelations/Flight of Icarus

Honourable mention to the first three from AMOLAD
 
Different World, These Colours Don't Run, Brighter Than a Thousand Suns

or

Phantom Of The Opera, Transylvania, Strange World
 
Probably The Alchemist, Isle of Avalon, Starblind.  At least by how I plan to rate them in the daily songs, that's probably the highest score of three consecutive songs.  Honorary mention to The Wicker Man, Ghost of the Navigator, Brave New World and Caught Somewhere in Time, Wasted Years, Sea of Madness.
 
1. Running Free/Phantom Of The Opera/Transylvania
2. Murders In The Rue Morgue/Another Life/Genghis Khan
3. Invaders/Children Of The Damned/The Prisoner
4. Flight Of The Icarus/Die With Your Boots On/The Trooper
5. Back In The Village/Powerslave/Rime Of The Ancient Mariner

This is certainly a strong combination. I rate them second, maybe even a shared 1st place with my earlier choice.
 
Where Eagles Dare >>> Revelations >>> Flight of Icarus

In reality, I have to go with this but there's nothing wrong with:

Prowler >>> Remember Tomorrow >>> Running Free

either.
 
I actually I can say I like

Satellite 15... Final Frontier/El Dorado/Mother of Mercy very much

but if we talk about the old albums, it's definitely

Caught somewhere in time/wasted years/sea of madness

Finally, someone with the good taste to recognize those 3 for the quality tracks they are. I was just defending this trio on the sister conversation, Worst 3 consecutive songs.

+1 for you!
 
1) The Nomad > Out of The Silent Planet > The Thin Line Between Love and Hate

2) New Frontier > Paschendale > Face in The Sand

3) Coming Home > The Alchemist > Isle of Avalon

4) For The Greater Good of God > Lord of Light > The Legacy

5) Stranger in a Strange Land > Deja Vu > Alexander The Great

It's difficult to choose a favourite.
