It's a great song. My mind is blown on all of the synth-era albums. One thing I've noticed is that Maiden has something for everyone, be it synth, heavy metal, thrash metal, plain old acoustic and prog.

I can't say I find them particularly thrashy. But you are right, they cover a wide spectrum. The self-titled album is very punky, something I'm not quite keen on, but somehow very cool.

This song is just brilliant. If I'm in a bit of a slump, mentally, this is constantly blasting out of my speakers.
Top 30 Most Played Note: Because Somewhere Back In Time was my first album and is included in this list, there are some duplicates. e.g. Run To The Hills has 288+35 plays, which equals 323 overall
Just got the five albums I purchesed from Amazon.ca I'm happy that when they say 4-7 business days, they mean 4 business days What I've heard so far is great I've now got all their albums except Dance of Death, which I hope to get soon
Note: I apologize for my over usage of the term "", I'm just happy I got more Iron Maiden
Despite what I say about the FOTD and NPFTD albums, the song that got me into Maiden was actually Be Quick or be Dead. That was the first song I saw as a favourite. That was 8 years ago. Then as time has gone on I've become more musically knowledgeable and I now prefer the more complex side of Maiden displayed in the last decade or so. (Pretty much The X Factor onwards)
I like their 2000s stuff, Brave New World and The Final Frontier are very good albums, but the 1980s stuff is just outstanding. Short, sharp bursts of musical ecstacy.
Number Of The Beast right through to Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son was a string of absolutely brilliant albums.

My dad cranked Live After Death and Fear of the Dark a lot when I was younger...Live After Death's Hallowed Be Thy Name, Flight of Icarus, Aces High, Running Free (8 minute version), and The Trooper were my favorites. Fear of the Dark the only songs I can remember hearing was From Here to Eternity, Be Quick or Be Dead, Judas Be My Guide and Fear of the Dark. Once I listened to both albums again later on I was like OH I REMEMBER THIS SONG when I listened to Live After Death. Bruce's voice is so different in FOTD I thought it was another band and the same thing happened, I REMEMBER THIS and THIS IS IRON MAIDEN???!?!?!?!?!? Listened to both on cassette. Then I got Guitar Hero 3 and played Number of the Beast NON-STOP. The Trooper still remains one of my all-time favorites.
Running silent, Running deep, we are your final prayer,
Warriors in secret sleep, a merchantman's nightmare,
A silent death lies waiting, for all of you below,
Running silent, Running deep, sink into your final sleep
