[@mattw4461]

I always loved this album and was surprised that it does have some haters. 8) Play with Madness 7) Only the Good 6) Prophecy 5) Evil 4) Clairvoyance 3) Moonchild 2) Seventh Son 1) Infinite Dreams

[@ericcurry-pitcher5493]

No doubt, down with hate, and up the irons!!!

[@roberterwine7650]

7th son and the first Iron maiden are my two favorites

[@philipholmes5884]

Mine are "Killers"/"Seventh son of a seventh son" & "The X Factor"... weird combo...!

[@waylonlattimer5630]

Timeline is everything. That album came out when I was in seventh grade. And it is still my favorite maiden album.

[@connorstratton5961]

Many many many many years ago, I would have told you this is my favorite made an album, cuz it was one of the first three I ever heard. Now it's peace of mind

[@guilty-of-being-right]

I thought Bruce was singing ,Can I Play With Matches,when I first heard that🔥

[@titaniabell6680]

@@guilty-of-being-right can I play with Agnes...?

[@Bjørn-RuneNilsen]

1. Seventh Son of a Seventh Son 2. Infinite Dreams 3. Moonchild 4. The Evil That Men Do 5. The Clairvoyant 6. The Prophecy 7. Only the Good Die Young 8. Can I Play With Madness

[@Buckeyefarmer]

In some ways, this was peak Maiden for me. I love the mystical themes in here. The production is great. It was definitely them pushing into a more polished melodic sound. For me, it's a top 5 album of theirs. I like everything on this album even Can I play with Madness is a fun ride, but I have to admit, the cheese level on that one is a bit high. 8. Can I Play with Madness 7. The Evil That Men Do 6. Only the Good Die Young 5. Clairvoyant 4. The Prophecy 3. Seventh Son of a Seventh Son 2. Infinite Dreams 1. Moonchild

[@pistolsscaramanga3437]

Important album for me as it was a fresh release when I got into the band in 1988 (I was twelve at the time). I would only put Powerslave and The Number Of The Beast above Seventh Son. Piece Of Mind and Somewhere In Time are usually no. 4 and 5 when I rank Maiden albums. After that, the Di’Anno albums (which I like, but I think Iron Maiden became more interesting when Dickinson joined. They used to write two-dimensional (or black and white) songs, but when Bruce joined they started crafting multi-dimensional and cinematic songs). Right! The ranking of this album: 1 - Moonchild (10) 2 - Only The Good Die Young (9.5) 3 - Seventh Son (9) 4 - The Evil That Men Do (8.5) 5 - Infinite Dreams (8.5) 6 - The Clairvoyant (7.5) (the chorus of Clairvoyant is what drags it down for me; too repetitive…) 7 - The Prophecy (7) 8 - Can I Play With Madness (6)

[@youtoo2233]

Same here, people rave about Somewhere in Time and Seventh Son but other than a few cool things here and there I just have never been able to fully grab these two albums. That said, my favorite Maiden song might actually be caught somewhere in Time. My fave Maiden albums are also those first 6 including Live after death

[@t.w.7477]

first maiden album and first iron maiden concert seven son and some were in time are my favorites

[@EDDIETRUJILLO-q8p]

This album is in my top 5. Some of the greatest bass lines ever.

[@rramirez4217]

I discovered Iron Maiden because of that album. It's my favorite (tied with Somewhere in Time). Nope. Not a typical fan either. Here's my list: 1. 7th Son 2. The Evil That Man Do (hate the live versions) 3. Can I Play with Madness 4. Only the Good Die Young 5. Moon Child 6. The Clarvoyant 7. Infinite Dreams 8. The Prophecy

[@krisfreouf]

It's probably my favorite Iron Maiden album too lol. My first time seeing them was on the Maiden England tour in 2012. I love it. But i understand why you aren't into it. Here's my ranking: 8. Can I Play with Madness 7. Only the Good Die Young 6. The Proohecy 5. Moonchild 4. Infinite Dreams 3. The Clairvoyant 2. The Evil That Men Do 1. Seventh Son of a Seventh Son But its my favorite album so i love every song. 🤘

[@Joshua-l7g]

I absolutely love can I play with madness and the MTV video🤘

[@titaniabell6680]

3:40 Love every song on that album.just as much as the first 3 studio albums. Anything after that was not that great anymore no prayer for the dying and fear of the dark had some good songs, but they also had more fillers than good songs on those records. ....imho

[@zandig666]

I dont think i ever heard 7th bum of a 7th bum Ralph bc somewhere in sLime was my last Miron Aiden album after the great Powerslave !!!! Stay heavy 🤟🤟🤟🤟 Listen to the podcast kings together or on their various sucessful platforms !! 🤟🤟🤟🤟

[@musicmanstu4427]

I enjoy it but not my top three mine is piece of mind, Somewhere in time and killers 🎸🎵🎵

[@ericcurry-pitcher5493]

In my world all Iron Maiden rules, do I have my favorites? Of course I do, but if you lost the plot I feel for you. My condolences and deepest sympathy for the lost.

[@johnlee7479]

7 th son was there last great album , and the departure of Adrian Smith , from there on in it was down hill

[@JanaWright-ii6qz]

I saw Maiden England tour I think 2014 where they played the entire Seventh Son album, and it was freaking based-ass! I thought this album too proggy when it came out and it took awhile to grow on me. Now I love it

[@83marceloa]

Nope. It was not the entire album.

[@83marceloa]

I like the album, the artwork and the tour. I love the dvd: great sound quality. My favourites: Infinity Dreams, Moon Child, 7th Son, The Evil, The Clairvoyant, Can I play, The Profecy,Only the good time Young.

[@brettblain1336]

I agree, first time I heard can I play with madness I was like wth

[@rogerbennett6117]

The Tour was Great! But the album is good not great. 8. Only the good die 7. The clairvoyant 6. Can I play with 5. Evil that men do 4. The prophecy 3. Moon child 2. 7th son of a 7th son 1. Infinite dreams

[@Jaake-my2rq]

This is depressing. I came way late to the Maiden party. Missed 'Slave', missed 'Time', had to settle for THIS tour. God I wish someone would have dragged my 13 year-old a$$ to 'Powerslave'. It's the absolute pinnacle of live Iron Maiden. The straight-up West End theater set and backdrops, tons of cool practical FX, and a giant Eddie torso with exploding eyes. Fvck me...

[@jessedeeeeee]

Actually piece of mind is my second favorite..3rd killers or number. Infinite dreams rules...the mandrake rules...evil that men do is friggin awesome.

[@EnriqueGarcia-tn2lf]

You probably are better off starting listen to reggeton $hi&y music😁 With so many anthem you hate... Cumbia or reggeton would make you feel happy again 🤭🤭 Loyal subscriber!!!

[@almosthuman56]

Eww. I rather listen to Seventh Son.

[@paddy3622]

last maiden album that had good,somewhat,shorter tunes. after 7th Son I'm not sure what happened with Maiden.

[@jessedeeeeee]

Favorite Iron Maiden next to the first one. By the way. Get out of my head!!! 3weeks ago i ranked the 80s kiss albums. Last week mercyful fate. Now this week I'm doing maiden. Are you following me bra?

[@OakleytheRottie]

Don’t see any kiss ranking video on your channel?

[@jessedeeeeee]

@OakleytheRottie it wasn't on my channel. I posted it on metal group on Facebook. Hold on.

[@jessedeeeeee]

@OakleytheRottie KISS Final Rank of 20 studio albums. No live albums. 1 Destroyer 2 Dressed to kill 3 crazy nights 4 Kiss 5 The Elder 6 love Gun/R&R over 7 Hotter than hell/Revenge 8 Creatures of the night/Dynasty/Psycho Circus 9 unmasked 10 Asylum 11 Hot in the shade 12 Monster 13 lick it up 14 carnival of souls 15. Animal 16. Sonic Boom

[@jessedeeeeee]

@OakleytheRottie I'm not through maiden all the way yet, but mostly. I still have book of souls, seventh son, somewhere in time, sejutsu,

[@jessedeeeeee]

I went song by song each album ranking every song then tallied up points.

[@artbydanolive]

THIS ALBUM SOUNDS BETTER AFTER 7 BEERS!

[@djkillergarcia]

All the early 80's bands were scrambling trying to put out something different around this time. Guns N' Roses had arrived and only Metallica could counter them. I think motley were doing pretty good in their own way as well.

[@philipholmes5884]

This was their last great studio & Bruce Bruce album...his voice changed after this album...plus losing Adrian was a bigger blow than losing Dickinson...to me anyways... Twinkle toes Gers isn't even close to Smith's playing...he did contribute some decent co writing on some of the songs...but like I said after Adrian left... they started going downhill and never recovered...😐

[@joebrezel]

I dig up to this album... F that munchkin, though. JOKES... just jokes. Don't cancel me, Dr Fukk‼️‼️‼️ 👀😮😮🤣🤣

[@JasonWorstenholm]

For me, maiden reached their peak with " somewhere in time", my absolute favorite album of maiden. After that, nothing but shit, rehash after rehash, cliches, etc. seventh, no prayer, fear of, on and on and on and STILL going on! 🤮

[@wolfthequarrelsome5270]

I hate this album. The keyboards kill it. I have no idea why so many people rank it so high.

[@carterpevoto]

I love Seventh Son but my least favorite from the 80’s

[@AdrianJeffreys-fj2fv]

After seventh son they just went to shit they've got a handful of songs here and there but they are all weak albums what happened the three guitar team doesn't work it puts them in a predictable position cause they do the same type harmonies their boring it's a shame cause they were shit in the eighties

[@richieflenniken9974]

Killer Album yep madness throats it
