Best Song On Iron Maiden's Seventh Son of a Seventh Son

The Top Ten
1 Seventh Son of a Seventh Son

Second? The evil that men do is one of the weakest songs on this album, sure its easy to sing along to and still a good song but seventh son of a seventh son is extremely well written has the best instrumental sections I've ever heard and easily the best song on this album closely followed by infinite dreams.

The guitar harmony in the last minute is divine and brilliant only for that minute I listen to this song (I think that the evil that men do is of course number 1 but I voted for the title track to at least be no.2

This is one of the best songs written by Iron Maiden. I mean it, for me it's like in top 10 best their songs. It's so progressive, extremly long, but with great lyrics and guitars. Amazing. The only good word for this song.

The others songs in that album even if they are great suck compared to this one. But every song by maiden are awesome but this one is definitely the best in the album.

2 The Evil that Men Do

Everyone says that Fear of the Dark at Rock in Rio is the best live performance ever, but I think The Evil That Men Do in Rio was even better.

In my opinion the best single iron maiden has ever produced. Also has the best bridge between verse and chorus that I have ever heard...

This song has the catchiest chorus and is a very well rounded song definitely my favourite from the album

This song, from the intro to the solo and from solo to the end... This song absolutely rules it all, the best song of the álbum for me

3 Infinite Dreams

There is something inexplicably brilliant about this song. I've been listening to this album almost non stop since I was three years old and whilst songs like Seventh Son of a Seventh Son and Can I Play With Madness will always have a special place in my heart, I can't get over this song. I know that the album is a concept album but this song in particular just resonates with me. The lyrics are phenomenal and will stick with me my entire life. Every word is crafted to perfection, every time I listen to it I almost cry due to the sheer emotion that I find in the words. The guitar, craftsmanship and structure is nothing to sneer at either! Every note feels like it is part of a greater whole to tell a story, the guitar is chilling and insane and Bruce's scream is unforgettable. It is a true masterpiece.

The title track to this album is easily the worst maiden track of the 1980s. It has all of the problems that the angel and the gambler has, plus a lame monologue in the middle. Infinite dreams, is a great track however. It's very unique, the first half has very jazzy elements and then it transitions into a slower mystic metal songs, then Bruce screams and it's an awesome maiden track.

The guitar work on this track is the strongest on the entire album, in my opinion. The twin guitar instrumental in the middle of the song (twice) still gives me the chills; it's that beautiful. Not to mention, the lyrics are quite deep when you actually take the time to listen to them.

Infinite Dreams is a pure masterpiece. Iron Maiden is one of the best metal bands ever! UP THE IRONS!

4 Moonchild

This song has to be at least on the second place below Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son only. It is catchy, fast and shows that Steve Harris is the best metal bassist in the world. Just listen to the middle section during and between solos. Also Bruce is amazing on that track screaming more than never

Why is it hated it's a very good song and a great intro to this album this is my favorite iron maiden album UP THE IRONS

Are you serious? Is there a more badass riff on any song than on Moonchild?

5 The Clairvoyant

Has to be clairvoyant! The opening bass draws me right in which rampages into a wondeorus song with catchy lyrics and fantstic guitars! UP THE IRONS!

6 Only the Good Die Young

Even though the title track is my favorite I'm defentley voting this. The chorus is catchy and easy to sing like the evil that men do. In my opinion it's better but all songs from this masterpiece...

Its pretty damn hard to vote

1. The evil that men do 20/20
2. Seventh son of a seventh son 19/20
3. Infinite dreams 19/20
4. Only the good die young 19/20
5. Moonchild 19/20
6. Can I play with madness 17/20
7. The prophecy 16/20
8. The clairvoyant 11/20

"Walking on water, are miracles all you can trust? Measure your coffin, does it measure up to your lust"?

One of maidens most catchiest underrated songs

7 Can I Play with Madness

It is IMPOSSIBLE that Infinite Dreams and Moonchild are better than this masterpiece. The whole song is more upbeat than the title claims. Its misleading which is what I love about it.

This has to be the best off the album it beats clairvoyant by miles clairvoyant is the worst iron maiden song come on can I play with madness the best off one of their best albums

A catchy song which makes you fell happy and it sticks in yar head all the time. Prsonally it should have benn on the setlists instead of clairvoyant the clairvoyant is trash but this is epic.

Infinite dreams is better but can I play with madness should be higher

8 The Prophecy

1. Seventh son of a seventh son
2. Infinite dreams
3. The evil that men do
4. Only the good die young
5. The prophecy
6. Can I play with madness
7. Moonchild
8. The clairvoyant

My personal favorite off the album. It's very good and extremely underrated.

The intro and the ending is so good
