Best Songs from Iron Maiden's The Final Frontier

This isn't only the best song on the album or the best Maiden song, in my opinion, it's the greatest song of all time. It's a masterpiece. It's the last track on the album and Iron Maiden often save the best song til last on many of their albums.
In my opinion, The final frontier is one of their most melodic albums, their four latest albums have all been very melodic and this is one of the most meoldoic songs.
I love the wind blowing in the opening, I love the intro and I love all the rest. In true Maiden style they use the intro again at the end for a fantastic finale.
I also love that it's 11 minutes long, not too short so that I can truly enjoy it.
Not much else I can say other than it's brilliant and it's my favourite song of all time.

This in my opinion is a masterpiece. Vocals are pretty analogous to that of "afraid to shoot strangers". The blowing sound of wind as the intro, the melodic vocals and awesome the awesome composed 11 minutes tale is just enough to determine its epicness. Awesome work! Up the IRONS!

Simply amazing, and the best Iron Maiden song in my opinion. The main melody is beautiful and the track goes from strength to strength, with each new section somehow beating the last.

I would go as far as to say that this is one of Maiden's best songs. Great guitar, great melody, great story - the only thing that brings it down is the strange narration

This was one of the first songs that got to me from this release. Maybe it was the slow start, or the explosiveness once the song is in full force. The lyrics are just magnificent, as is the instrumentation. One of the best Maiden songs ever and the best from the album

Great Maiden-esque subject, amazing vocals and brilliant time changes. This song really combines classic Maiden with the modern. Amazing!

When the wild wind blows is one of the worst sorry but this song...the talisman is absolutely excellent!

It's about an epic journey on the seas. It's like Rime of the Ancient Mariner's baby or something.

Definitely the best song on here. Amazing guitar solos, amazing lyrics that have real meaning behind them. When you sit down and listen to the the lyrics, you realize hoe emotional it is. It's about coming home for the first time in years, and how it is for the band. Absolute classic, and I feel ashamed for the people who didn't vote for it.

hey all don't you understand this has the best guitar solo in the album. Adrian shmit do it again

Very good chill atmosphere and awesome outer-space lyrics it absolutely puts my mind at ease

I cry with the melody of this song. The Dave Murray's solo is one of the best solos in the heavy metal!

Satellite 15 is definitely something unexpected from Iron Maiden. I personally think it's great, it's frightening and the music helps convey the storyline and fear that much better. The final frontier is something you would expect from Iron Maiden, and as always, it's very good and has a great guitar solo.

I don't understand why people don't like this song.
Because it is a little bit more progressive than other?
4th place isn't bad but in my opinion it's too low.

The second part of the song is an example of why Iron Maiden has always been at the top. It is short, heavy and with an excellent chorus!

I love the prog feel of the intro

WAY underrated! 1) I love how in typical Maiden fashion this song is a complete musical journey starting with brooding, picking up to cruising speed, then going into that weird prog phase with the solos that made you wonder if you accidentally hit another artist on your iPod, then back to cruise mode. 2) Just like the music, the lyrics are a complete story, not just mindless poetry.

1. The Man Who Would Be King
2. When the Wild Wind Blows
3. El Dorado
4. The Talisman
5. Satellite 15... The Final Frontier
6. Isle of Avalon
7. Starblind
8. The Alchemist
9. Coming Home
10. Mother of Mercy

This is a phenomenal album, Mother of Mercy is the only song I don't think is all that great but it's still a decently good song, for a while When the Wild Wind Blows was my favorite song from this album but The Man Who Would Be King came out of nowhere and is now my favorite song off this fantastic album, this song truly is art in its purest form.

Simply brilliant. This is all part of the natural progression for the band in my opinion.. It gives it punch without going over the top But at the same time still retaining it's roots. Love it!

Has anyone even heard this song? This is their most underrated song on this album. Please listen to this song before voting for anything else!

I vote for this song because it's very underrated. Hey come on people! Listen to it, it's not a perfect song, but it has a great lyrics and a strong, powerful riff and solos. It's great. For me it's a lot better then Coming Home.

Stunning song, I agree with the fact it's probably the best song since "Seventh Son..." Smith work with the writing and the soloing is incredible!

Best song since the 80s. Bar none. It is perfect maiden, with none of the overblown stuff of the other admittedly solid songs.

Extremely underrated. Combines the best elements of the somewhere in time/seventh son era into one awesome song.

The verses are ok. The chorus is awful on the other hand, as it highlights the fact that Bruce wasn't singing as well as normal on this whole album, other than the talisman. Thank god that book of souls had him singing just as well as his old stuff.

Great metal song! I love how it builds up to a soaring chorus (not once, but twice! ), and the soloing section is classic Maiden. I'd put this near the top of my all-time favorite Iron Maiden list.

Probably the best of a bad bunch can not get into this album at all and on a personal level this is the worst album done with Bruce by far,El Dorado is a good song but borrows heavily from Barracuda by heart

El Dorado is one of those songs that you listen to when you want to hear Iron Maiden at thier best. I wonder if they will make any new albums, if so, I'll buy them aslo.

Much better than people give it credit for. Many people don't like it 'because it's "repetitive", but it ain't.

Last place! No way, this has an infectious chorus in amongst an atmospheric epic song

This is my favourite on the album...can't believe it's at the bottom of this list!

It's a different style to most of their other songs, but I really like it!

The chorus frustrates me to no end. It feels like Bruce is trying to sing as powerfully as he used to, but only hits the notes without any of the power in other songs.

This song is underrated but still cool but why is el dorado higher than this.

My opinion
5 mother of mercy
4 isle of avalon
3 coming home
2 talisman
1 when the wild wind blows

Very, very underappreciated! My top 5 would be : 1) The Talisman
2) MOTHER OF MERCY
3) When the Wild Wind Blows
4) The Final Frontier
5) El Dorado
