Guess The Iron Maiden Song!

Clue 1: A band of which Maiden are known admirers have released a concept album with a homage to a person whose name can be made up with names of individuals who have played in Iron Maiden. This person is related to several bands. One of these bands has a name that connotes strongly with both the name and the lyrics of this Maiden song.

Clue 2: The lyrics of the song contains the name of two different tv series, which are thematically linked.

Clue 3: A band that has numerous associations with Maiden have released two albums with names similar to Iron Maiden songs. The band's very first single has a name that is an obvious clue to the Maiden song in question.

Clue 4: Both bands referred in clue 1 have released songs with the same name as two Maiden songs. These two Maiden songs appear on the same album, one is the album closer. One of the many associations between Maiden and the band in clue 3 has an anniversary these days.

Clue 5: The song can be found on more than one Maiden release. The name of the song is also a part of a name given to an unofficial release of Maiden material.



Incorrect guesses: Heaven Can Wait, Public Enema Number One, Invaders, Dream of Mirrors, Speed of Light, Twilight Zone, Out of the Silent Planet, Moonchild, Die With Your Boots On, Killers, The Red and the Black, The Prisoner

Coming Home

(4: Deep Purple's Come Taste The Band includes "Coming Home" and "Drifter"; 5: Coming Home for Christmas would be the name of the DVD bootleg recorded in London on the first leg of AMOLAD tour... and Killers was released around this time of the year, 39 years ago)

If that is not the right answer, at least it gives ideas for some next rounds. ;)

Impressive reasoning on this, though I doubt it'll match all the clues.
