List of the only Maiden songs for which I would change something:

Days Of Future Past - to have a guitar harmony instead of the empty middle part.
The Time Machine - to have a different melody for the intro.
Hell On Earth - to have 1/2 more repeats of the chorus.
If Eternity Should Fail - to have a proper solo.
When The River Runs Deep - to have a fast chorus.
Empire Of The Clouds - Janick to have a solo.
The Final Frontier - to have a guitar harmony after the solos.
Mother Of Mercy - to have a different chorus and shorter intro.
Isle Of Avalon - no proggy solos, Janick to have a solo and to have a triple-lead guitar harmony instead of the reprised intro after the solos.
The Talisman - Janick to have a longer solo.
The Man Who Would Be King - to have a more lively pre-chorus/chorus and without the ''ah-ah'' melody under the solo.
These Colours Don't Run - Janick to have a solo.
For The Greater Good Of God - maybe to have fewer verses.
Face In The Sand - to have a longer guitar harmony after the solo.
Age Of Innocence - to be less heavy, to have different verses (especially after the guitar harmony) and chorus.
Journeyman - to have an acoustic solo.
The Nomad - to have a different instrumental section.
The Angel And The Gambler - to be 6 minutes long, without a calm middle part (straight to the solos), maybe one more verse after the solos and less repetition after that (but with the great guitar licks).
Don't Look To The Eyes Of A Stranger - 1 minute less repeat of the chorus in the middle.
Fortunes Of War - to have a shorter intro and different chorus.
The Unbeliever - maybe to have a different pre-chorus.
Fear Is The Key - to have a different instrumental section (keep the screams though).
Weekend Warrior - to have a more metal feel and different pre-chorus.
Hooks In You - to have a different chorus.
Mother Russia - to have more verses.
Heaven Can Wait - the chorus to be like when it's played live... probably with backing vocals.
Losfer Words (Big 'Orra) - Dave to have a solo.
Flash Of The Blade - to have a solo/s.
Invaders - to have a different chorus.
Gangland - to have 2 solos.
Murders In The Rue Morgue - to have a proper solo/s.

-> 31 songs and most of the changes are really minor. Not bad for a band with 17 albums!

*I like the songs though.
 
I'm at work, sick, and I must get a tree on my way home.

I'm really looking forward to getting home and having some "comfort food"... reading about Czech medieval literature, watching Last of the Summer Wine or something, idk.
 
Czech medieval literature

I had no idea this was a thing!
Did a search but still not clear when we can establish the birth of the nation.. ~870?

*Just discovered the legend of Lech, Czech & Rus. Below their respective oaks in Poland. As old as about the nations of Poles, Czechs and Russians. Sweet!
