I like that one that goes meedly-meedly-meedly-meedly-meedly-MEEEEEEEEEE while the vocalist goes "YEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!"
 
cry for pompeii is pretty much up there. The best manowar songs, for me, are Gates of Valhalla and Thor (the Powerhead).
 
This has been done a hundred times, but I like power metal a lot so I'll chime in. I agree the best overall is Highlander. I think Blind Guardian is over rated. I can't figure out all the hype. Symphony X, too.
 
I don't really get Blind Guardian either, but The Last Candle has one of the greatest choruses I've ever heard.
 
So there's nothing from Blind Guardian here?

Ah true, I forgot them, but then again I did make this list a bit haphazardly. They had two phases to their career: first they were Speed Power Metal, and then later Symphonic Power Metal.

This is my favorite of their first phase:






And my favorite of their second phase:
