Guess The Iron Maiden Song!

Judgment Day
Correct!

Clue #1: Poker Face - A reference to the lyric “no tell tale sign that can show he's full of lies”

Clue #2: Wider divide that you can’t see - In “The Thin Line Between Love And Hate” there’s a lyric “wider divide that you can see between good and bad”. By changing the “can” to “can’t”, this becomes a reference to the lyric “there are no marks upon a man that can say he's good or bad“.

Clue #3: Action, not words - A reference to the lyric “by your deeds you will be known”.

Clue #4: This song was written by one current member and one former member of the band - Janick Gers is current, Blaze Bayley is former.

Clue #5: The chorus of this song is made up of two lyrical lines, each repeated twice - The chorus is “What will you say / What will you say / On judgement day / On judgement day“.

Clue #6: Not of heaven - This song references judgement, but it’s not “Judgement Of Heaven” from the same songwriting sessions.
