The Best Iron Maiden Song Never Played Live Results

[Collin]

Welcome to the Best Iron Maiden Song That Was Never Played Survivor! Due to the lack of songs we shall start with all songs from the beginning to 1992. After two rounds I will add the X factor and Virtual XI, then after two more rounds I will add the newer albums. There will be no promotions. After two rounds we will head to the finals and we will be using all the songs that are left. From finals we go to the top 10.

Furthermore I was very surprised the Back in the Village was played, I had always believed that it wasn't. And does anyone know if Virus was played? I was unable to find any information on it. As of right now Virus will be in the game.

Have Fun!

Never played live*

Quest For Fire
Sun And Steel
Fates Warning
The Apparition
Weekend Warrior

Let's get the shit out of the way first.

Is this only regular album songs? No b-side, bonus tracks etc? Virus is a non-album track.

Back in the Village was played according to Adrian Smith, in an old fanzine (see one of the pages from the topic where you got your songs from).

 

[Collin]

Yes all the regular album songs, but I intend to include Virus if it wasn't played.

Edit: I completely forgot about Justice of the Peace, Judgement Day, and I Live My Way. Would anyone be for adding those as there isn't very many songs from the Blaze era?

 

[Forostar]

It wasn't played by Maiden. Only by Blaze, solo, but that doesn't count here.

 

[Collin]

Ok Virus is in. What do you know about Justice of the Peace, Judgement Day, and I Live My Way?

 

[Forostar]

Never played. All released non-albums songs were never played apart from:
I’ve Got the Fire
Invasion
Women in Uniform

 

[Collin]

I think I might as well put those three in. Even though they won't go very far.

 

[Brigantium]

Quest For Fire
Sun And Steel
Fates Warning
The Apparition
Weekend Warrior

Let's get the shit out of the way first.

Setting aside the 'cavemen and dinosaurs' stuff, I find Quest for Fire good fun, especially the nice little instrumental section.

 

[RTC]

It was mostly directed at Weekend Warrior and The Apparition to be honest.

 

[Night Prowler]

I wouldn't put the b-sides into the game... As far as I know, Maiden never played a B-side live since Di'Anno left, not counting the The Entire Population Of Hackney concert. Just focus on the album stuff + Virus.

 

[Collin]

Ok then so it's settled. No B-Sides, except for Virus.

[Saapanael]

Fear is the Key and The Angel and the Gambler are the 2 worst Maiden songs .

 

[SixesAlltheway]

Only The Good Die Young is gonna win.

 

[MrKnickerbocker]

Nah, this forum worships Alexander. But OTGDY will make number two, probably. Unless The Fugitive Brigade shows up in force.

 

[RTC]

My favourites will be gone too early, so I'll probably end up backing Alex.

Went watchdog, and these are to come:

The X-Factor:
22. Look for the Truth
23. Judgement of Heaven
24. 2 A.M.
25. The Unbeliever

Virtual XI:
26. Como Estais Amigos

Brave New World:
27. The Nomad
28. The Thin Line between Love and Hate

Dance of Death:
29. Montségur
30. Gates of Tomorrow
31. New Frontier
32. Face in the Sand
33. Age of Innocence

The Final Frontier:
34. Mother of Mercy
35. The Alchemist
36. Isle of Avalon
37. Starblind
38. The Man Who Would Be King

39. Virus

Monts, Face, Starblind and Virus interest me a fair bit, but nothing much else.
