Remember Tomorrow
Phantom
A sad vote for Wrathchild
A sad vote for Murders in the Rue Morgue
Purgatory
Invaders
Children of the Damned
The Prisoner
Run to the Hills
Total Eclipse

I have to be honest, I think TNOTB is my least favourite album nowadays. It just doesn't connect with me like the later stuff. The one song I find myself liking more and more is Gangland.
 
Prowler, Remember Tomorrow, Wrathchild, Murders In The Rue Morgue, Prodigal Son, Invaders, Gangland, Total Eclipse

The debut and Killers are my two least favourite albums, not because they're bad, but simply because they're the most removed from the style of Maiden songs I enjoy. TNOTB is also rather low on my list, I simply prefer what came later. That said, I'll vote for Total Eclipse until it's gone. One of the few songs I actually hate with a passion.

Mine too. It’s a great album and a landmark metal album. But Maiden has surpassed it many times over. It’s probably in my bottom 5.
I probably wouldn't rank it near the top now, but bottom 5? TNOTB album! Only because of the 2 weak (by Maiden's standards) songs? The rest is classic material. It's definitely after top 5 for me.

Maybe that's why Killers is my least favorite classic album (and overall) and I can like it and enjoy it. But with so many great albums, it happens. The Maiden style I like the most is from the Reunion era.
 
Remember Tomorrow — went from one of my least favorite songs to one that I enjoy; still one of the weakest on the debut.
Strange World — cool song but it repeats too much.
Killers — a bit overrated but I respect it, great riff.
Prodigal Son — cool ballad, not one of their best track though.
Purgatory — easily in the bottom 3 of Maiden’s whole catalogue.
Gangland — easily the weakest TNOTB song, but it’s not bad just a bit bland.
 
That's some stiff competition between the debut songs. 4 songs fighting over 2 spots, all currently with about equal votes, I really wonder how it's going to turn out!
