Top 10 Iron Maiden songs
My Iron Maiden top ten list. Enjoy!! 10: Still Life 9: Aces High 8: Brave New World 7: Children Of The Damned 6: The Reincarnation Of Benjamin Breeg 5: Hallowed Be Thy Name 4: Lord Of Light 3: Phantom Of The Opera 2: Paschendale 1: Fear Of The Dark Other songs included: # Intro: The Wicker Man # End: Rime Of The Ancient Mariner

16 Iron Maiden Songs that should be on their greatest hits
SPOILER;CONTAINS THE LIST;READ BEFORE POSTING A MESSAGE I recently bought Maiden's "Edward the Great" for my Brother, and thought it was ok but lacked some key songs. I felt it should've come with a 2nd CD with another 16 songs, not because the first 16 were bad, but because it takes at least 2 cds to do Maiden Justice. Tracklist from Edward the Great: "Run to the Hills" "The Number of the Beast" "The Trooper" "Flight of Icarus" "2 Minutes to Midnight" "Wasted Years" "Can I Play with Madness" "The Evil That Men Do" "Bring Your Daughter...to the Slaughter" "Man on the Edge" "Futureal" "The Wicker Man" "Brave New World" "Wildest Dreams" "Rainmaker" "Fear of the Dark" (Live) It's good, but i felt it could do with simply more, my list is: 16) Flight of Icarus 15) Only The Good die Young 14) Afraid to Shoot Strangers (Fear of the Dark Album art kicks ass) 13) Transylvania (My favourite Instrumental) 12) Moonchild 11) Powerslave 10) Sign of the Cross (Best Blaze period song) 9) Heaven Can Wait 8) Rime of the Ancient Mariner (epic) 7) The Clairvoyant 6) Aces High 5) Paschendale (personal favourite) 4) Wrathchild 3) Phantom of The Opera 2) Iron Maiden (It's their signature song, why is it not on their greatest hits?) 1) Hallowed Be Thy Name (possibly their best song)
