Favorite Iron Maiden Song?

[bstringkyle]

I song I really like by them as well is Blood on the World's hands. Great bass solo at the beginning of the song.

I'm torn between "Run To The Hills" and "Two Minutes To Midnight." Yes they are popular and well-known, but they are still my faves.

 

[wlittle]

+1 to powerslave.

Also love flight of Icarus.

number of the beast.

forget it....they all rock.

wasted years.....

fear of the dark......

Ok, ok I'll stop.

 

[Valerus]

Hallowed Be Thy Name, Revelations, The Rime of the Ancient Mariner

Sanctuary. First Iron Maiden song I ever heard and first Iron Maiden song I learned to play. Good memories from my teen years!

This doesn't make me too old to listen to Iron Maiden, does it?

 

[eddievanbassman]

My fav album is Piece of Mind
Revelations,still life, to tame a land
good shi t

 

[4stringman]

Fear of the dark is amazing, hallowed and dance of death are favorites too

 

[Alvaro Martín Gómez A.]

Hmm... very hard to decide. I've always thought that the quintessential Maiden song in terms of putting all the elements of their sound and style together is "Hallowed Be Thy Name". Great song, of course, but not the one I'd pick if I had to choose just one. In such case, the winner is "The Number Of The Beast". An incredibly good and cool song to me.

 

[Double Agent]

Wasted Years, The Trooper, and The Wicker Man are my favorites, but I like pretty much every song mentioned in this thread.

 

[Bochafish]

So hard to choose, but I will go with Rime of the Ancient Mariner. Special mention to Infinite Dreams.

Funny side note: We used to lace up the boxing gloves as kids, and go at it. Instead of timed rounds, we fought to the length of Alexander the Great.

 

[wittynamehere]

I'll always be sweet on Charlotte the Harlot, first Maiden song I ever heard

 

[Cree]

The Trooper and Run to the Hills for me. Although, Wasted Years is right up there after watching the Flight 666 movie.

My favorite Iron Maiden song is "The Nomad" off of "Brave New World." I just love that bass tone...

 

[jmattbassplaya]

I`m actually proud to be the only one so far to say Prowler. Such a great beginning for a great band.

I`m also quite found of:
Judas My Guide
Caught Somewhere in Time
Out of the Silent Planet
Killers
Still Life
Children of the Damned
Rainmaker
Brave New World
Deja Vu
...

Ah who am I kidding, I love them all!

 

[Greevus]

Can't hold back! Where Eagles Dare, Strange World, Purgatory, Children of the Damned, Rime of Ancient Mariner, Invaders, Phantom of the Opera, Still Life, Killers, Aces High...can't stop! Prowler, Another Life, To Tame a Land, Hallowed Be Thy Name, Burning Ambition, Trooper, Transylvania, Innocent Exile, etc, etc....it's like asking what's my fave food.

 

[kbraker510]

for me it would be the first two albums.......even then they were tight and in your face......

 

[bstringkyle]

Thanks for all the responses.

My favorite 2 albums would have to go to Peice Of Mind and Powerslave. A Matter of Life and Death and Number of the Beast is up there as well.

 

[bstringkyle]

heck, I like them all.

 

[Jim Nazium]

hallowed be thy name...omg

One more vote. That song just kicks it.
