Vote your favorite track from Iron Maiden's immortal classic, Powerslave. The whole album is classic, but I'm going to go with the unpopular choice of Back in the Village.

A brilliant album that can claim some of their most energetic singles, one of their best epics, an awesome title track and many unsung gems. My vote goes to the title track. ------------- Earn Money Online (NOT a scam): https://premium.gg2u.org?referrer=adg211288" rel="nofollow - GG2U https://adamsfilmcorner.quora.com/" rel="nofollow - Adam's Film Corner on Quora |

All tracks are really good. My vote goes to "The Duellists". ------------- Only the dead have seen the end of war. Without music, life would be a mistake. |

| Went for Aces High - Maiden were always good at album openers and Aces High is no exception. |

Interesting choice. I'd consider Back In The Village one of the worst songs Maiden ever wrote in the 80s. Went for Rime of the Ancient Mariner. No one else could ever write and execute a song like that without it sounding pompous or pretentious. |

^I wouldn't say anything from that album is anywhere close to their worst, be it compared against their 80's albums or anything else. Honestly, I could have voted for pretty much any song on that album because I love every one of them, but I went with the title track. |

I just love 2 Minutes to Midnight, a very catchy song. ------------- The Funkiest Man on the Planet! |

Never understood why Powerslave is often considered as Maiden's best. I had great expectations looking at the covert art, and especially after the epic Piece of Mind. However, for me, this album is only half-good, their weakest opus from the 80's. I voted for the title song, as this is the only track musically in par with the nice Egyptian cover art.
