Another silly thread. The title track is #4 for me. Judas Be My Guide, The Apparition, and Weekend Warrior are all better than it.
 
Judas Be My Guide, Afraid to Shoot Strangers and From Here To Eternity (Screw you, I like it :p)
 
From Here To Eternity (Screw you, I like it :p)
It’s a far better song than many give it credit. Sure, it’s just a bit of harmless fun, but the narrative presented in the track is actually some of Maiden’s best storytelling - not the story itself, but the way it’s told.
 
My picks are the (probably) usual suspects:

Afraid to Shoot Strangers, Be Quick or Be Dead and Judas Be My Guide.
Not sure where I'd rank the title track compared to these, to be honest. ATSS is my favourite though.

The studio version would be below my three listed, the live version, especially the original version from ARLO would be miles ahead of the three listed
 
1. Judas Be My Guide
2. Wasting Love
3. Childhoods End

But I have a soft spot for the whole thing as it was my first Maiden album.
 
Fear of the Dark is yeah my favorite on the album but after that it is
1.Judas be my Guide
2.Be quick or be dead
3.Afraid to shoot strangers.

also
Wasting love is cool too (that was my dad's favorite Maiden song so it holds a place in my heart)
and maybe Childhood's end, everything else on the album to me is a riff junkyard, except for some decent little solo's here and there but it's not enough to save the songs.
