    EMI has announced the release of "From Fear To Eternity: The Best Of 1990-2010". A double-CD set spanning twenty years this follows the huge success of 2010's studio album "The Final Frontier" which hit the number one spot in 28 countries around the world. It also became the band's highest-charting album in the USA where IRON MAIDEN have just been awarded their first Grammy for "Best Metal Performance", for the song "El Dorado", taken from "The Final Frontier" album, and which is included in this selection.

    IRON MAIDEN's current phenomenal global success has seen the band not only scale new-found heights aided by their unique method of touring, using a customized Boeing 757 — named Ed Force One by their fans — to transport band, crew and all their equipment round the world to many new places, but has meant their ever-expanding fanbase now encompasses a brand new generation of metal lovers. "From Fear To Eternity" is a chance for these new fans of the band to explore IRON MAIDEN's rich history, with the highlights of their last eight studio albums distilled into this handy collection, which follows 2009's compilation of their earlier work, the 1980-1990 "Somewhere Back In Time" album.

    Perennial favourites to be found on this album include songs also featured in MAIDEN's current "The Final Frontier World Tour" set list; tracks such as "Fear Of The Dark", "The Wicker Man", "Blood Brothers" and "Dance Of Death" sit alongside recent classics "El Dorado" and the hauntingly evocative "When The Wild Wind Blows". It also include singles like "Holy Smoke" and "Be Quick Or Be Dead" together with more progressive thought-provoking album tracks like "Afraid To Shoot Strangers" and "For The Greater Good Of God". This new collection charts the musical development of Britain's most successful metal band as they have evolved their sound, producing longer, more complex songs, gaining huge critical acclaim in the process. Featuring many of the epics for which the band has become renowned, it is accordingly released as a double CD, but will retail for the price of a single album.

    The full track listing for the CD is as follows:

    Disc 1

    01. The Wicker Man
    02. Holy Smoke
    03. El Dorado
    04. Paschendale

    10. Sign Of The Cross (live)
    11. Brave New World
    12. Fear Of The Dark (live)

    Disc 2

    01. Be Quick Or Be Dead
    02. Tailgunner
    03. No More Lies
    04. Coming Home

    Can't narrow Maiden down to 3 songs. I think I'd have trouble narrowing it down to 10, 15, or even 20 for that matter
  • JLRedWing13JLRedWing13 Posts: 48,734 mod
    Top 10 would go something like this:

    Caught Somewhere In Time
    Infinite Dreams
    Wasted Years
    Phantom of the Opera
    Aces High
    Revelations
    Powerslave
    The Wicker Man
    Alexander The Great
    The Prisoner

    Not necessarily in order, especially after the first few songs.
