Songs considered a "filler" track you actually do enjoy?

Dick Brucinson

Are there any songs commonly agreed to be an album "filler track" that you do enjoy a lot, and that's actually more than just an average song for you? For me, that’s definitely the case with "The Prophecy."
 
Prodigal Son
Quest For Fire
Sun And Steel
The Duellists
The Prophecy
Hooks In You
Childhood´s End
The Unbeliever
I have to strongly disagree about The Duellists and Childhood's End. Those are definitely not filler. Also, Sun and Steel doesn't deserve that much bashing.

Does Iron Maiden have songs that are actually confirmed as fillers? A filler isn’t a song that is always poor quality. Smoke on the Water is a filler and that’s regarded one of the greatest rock songs ever.

I'm just gonna say that as far as famous filler songs go Paranoid is actually quite shit
 
Quest For Fire
The Loneliness Of The Long Distance Runner
The Prophecy
Public Enema Number One
Childhood's End
The Aftermath
Don't Look To The Eyes Of A Stranger
Gates Of Tomorrow
Lost In A Lost World
 
I suppose for the sake of this we are considering Lesser Spotted Album Tracks as filler, probably ones not played live.

Personally I love Invaders and Gangland. Ferocious NWOBHM bangers.

Shadows of the Valley, one of the most critisied songs on the album is one of my favourites on that album.

Also a large fan of Educated Fool and Eyes of a Stranger, which get heavily criticised. Well, one does anyway, can't remember which one is most scorned.

Prophecy and OTGDY if they count as filler. Both fantastic songs, for me.

But yeah, Invaders and Gangland would be my picks of lower ranked Maiden songs that I adore.

You're not having The Aftermath as filler, no ma'am. It was played live throughout the tour and there was even an official live release of it. Can't be filler, surely. Stricken from the record!
