Honorable mentions: Killers, Phantom of the Opera, Can I Play with Madness?, Hooks in You, Fear of the Dark, Out of the Silent Planet, Flight of Icarus, Only the Good Die Young, To Tame a Land...

I like a lot of Blaze-era (minus vocals) stuff and post-BNW stuff and am still a fan, but none of those tracks made my list.

Edit: I've been feeling guilty about not including The Trooper. It certainly deserves an honorable mention at the very least. My apologies to the world of metal.
