i voted for "Moonchild" b/c it's a great song to play on bass. it rocks! "7th Son of a 7th Son" is my 2nd favourite to play. if i could vote twice, i'd have voted for those 2.

 

[krustwell]

"Infinite Dreams" ain't bad, either.

 

[Adrianne Smith]

The Evil That Men Do.

 

[user no more]

Agreed JoJo. Every time I hear that song I have it in my head for the rest of the day. The Clairvoyant is a close second for me.

 

[smylex]

Had to go with the title track for this one.

 

[matcauthron]

Ah, easy one ! Seventhson beats them all!

By the way, did you see this very song was live in the Eddie's Archive? But I'll go to another thread for that!

 

[ROTLD]

Moonchild gets my vote. Seeing Steve Harris hammer this out from a few feet away was awesome. This was another great Maiden tour. Moonchild is probably the only song off this album I'd like to see the Maidens do. Their current set of pre-Somewhere in Time stuff is hard to beat.

I had to say "Only The Good Die Young", although the chorus is a little repitive it's still a very singable tune. Still, this is not one of my favorite albums. Something was not right in the songwriting and recording process.

 

[Mariner]

Clairvoyant! No doubt about that, madness and evil are good, but way too poppy too be winners! Bad excuse I know, but that's how I feel about them...
I guess there has been a Powerslavepoll already? missed my favourite anyway, the Rime of the Ancient Mariner is the best song ever made! Followed by Powerslave! 2 Minutes to Midnight is killer too! ooooh yeah baby

 

[Steph Harris]

I've always liked Clairvoyant & Can I Play w/Madness.

 

[The Ragman]

I'm surprised more people aren't saying Infinite Dreams. This is one of my all time favorite Maiden tunes.
I always felt like this album was a "synthed up" version of Piece of Mind which i really liked. Anybody comment?

 

[icepick3383]

My vote goes to 7th, for the one thing that puts it over the top....the "choir" part, towards the end.

you know which part...

"ohhhhh oh"......"Ohhhh oh ohhhhhhh oh-oh OHHHHH Ohh"



THAT PART RULES!!

Infinite Dreams for me

 

[hydrogrind]

infinite dreams

 

[Soul of a new Machine]

Moonchild because the intro is really unusual and then it rocks

 

[nafnikufesin]

Don't shoot me for saying this, but in my opinion, this is the last truly great album Maiden has put out. It's great from beginning to end, and really deserves to be listened to from beginning to end rather than one song at a time. If I had to choose one song, I'd go with Can I Play with Madness.

 

[krustwell]

hey NFF, i agree with you. Seventh Son was the last Maiden album that i even remotely liked until Brave New World. it's a long story, but when Adrian left and broke up the dream team that had been together since Piece of Mind, it pissed me off. then Bruce left...

anyway, that's all ancient history. i still consider Seventh Son to be "new" Maiden, though.

 

[Red Shirt]

I give up. All these albums (up to this point) are so good it's really tough for me to pick a best. Most of the time I pick the song that I feel like listening to at that moment. I picked Infinite Dreams because I've always liked the way it starts off slow, then very slowing it progresses to very fast. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know, I know, 7th does that too...and that's a great song too!

Historical Fact: Moonchild was recorded on the 1st take.
