Brave New World was my favourite, but I've found myself getting increasingly tired of it over the last while.
 
As much as I regret that it is losing, I am heartened to see that 10 other people have realized the greatness of Ghost of the Navigator over Infinite Dreams.

I like Ghost a lot, but it’s very low in my list simply because BNW and Maiden as a whole have better songs.

Infinite Dreams is falling though, while Navigator is rising.
 
I like it a lot, can't top Moonchild though. Epic intro, lyrics, chorus, solos, evil laugh. Moonchild's got it all.

A win for 7th Son pushes it into the semi-finals.
Can Book of Souls beat Somewhere in Time to prevent an entirely Play Classics final four?
 
Caught Somewhere In Time
Speed of Light
Sea of Madness
The Red and the Black
When the River Runs Deep
The Book of Souls
Stranger in a Strange Land
Shadows of the Valley
That Girl
The Man of Sorrows
Empire of the Clouds

7 - 4 to The Book of Souls. Tears and That Girl were very close...
 
If Eternity Should Fail vs Caught Somewhere in Time
Speed of Light vs Wasted Years
The Great Unknown vs Sea of Madness
The Red and the Black vs Heaven Can Wait
When the River Runs Deep
vs Reach Out
Book of Souls vs The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner
Death or Glory vs Stranger in a Strange Land
Shadows of the Valley
vs Deja Vu
Tears of a Clown vs That Girl
The Man of Sorrows vs Juanita
Empire of the Clouds vs Alexander the Great

7-4 to 'The Book of Souls', but the difference can be explained by the match-ups with b-sides.
 
6-5 in favor of TBOS. Reach Out and When The River Runs Deep was a hard round but I went with the latter because while I like it more each time, the same can’t be said for the other one.

And as much as I love Tears of the Clown, That Girl is perfection itself.
 
If Eternity Should Fail vs Caught Somewhere in Time
Speed of Light vs Wasted Years
The Great Unknown vs Sea of Madness

When the River Runs Deep

Book of Souls vs The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner
Death or Glory vs Stranger in a Strange Land
Shadows of the Valley
vs Deja Vu
Tears of a Clown vs That Girl
The Man of Sorrows vs Juanita
Empire of the Clouds vs Alexander the Great

6-5 for The Book of Souls (the b-sides didn't help SIT although ironically they are among the best they've done but I'd rather listen to original songs than covers with very few exceptions)
