So, the answer is: NO

Masterpiece!
This thread was slightly before my time joining the Forum, but I love re-reading it every once in awhile. Since the game is in maintenance, I figured I'd finally give my two cents, for whatever it's worth.
Of course Hallowed Be Thy Name is a masterpiece. I realized that when I first heard it at age 12. I remember evenings after school, listening to that song maybe a dozen times a day, rewinding the cassette after each one.
Sure, it's a masterpiece.
Not my favorite maiden song though. It MAY be in my top 5, but that's a hard maybe. They have so many other masterpieces that it's hard to decide!
Unpopular opinion: No Prayer For The Dying is a good album.
The Thin Line Between Love and Hate is a masterpiece I feel no one ever talks about. The solo at the end...fuckin' A, man.
Yes. Hallowed Be Thy Name and Rime of the Ancient Mariner are without a doubt my favorites. When these come on Ozzy's Boneyard when the wife and I are going somewhere she always gets a kick out me when I state "Oh, hell yeah" and crank the car stereo up.
But, The Man who Would Be King strikes some kind of deep cord with me and I can't get enough of that song either.

Hallowed be thy name is good song but i still havent started loving it(but i'm feeling the conversion)
Hallowed Be Thy Name is an amazing song and definitely one of my favorites, but I think it's a mistake to try to "rank" the songs of any great band, especially one as long-lived as Iron Maiden. When somebody asks me my favorite Maiden song, I pretty much just start listing titles -- because, the truth is, I have lots of favorites. Hallowed is certainly one of them, but so is Rime of the Ancient Mariner, Die With Your Boots On, Infinite Dreams, Look for the Truth, The Educated Fool, Ghost of the Navigator, Blood Brothers, Dance of Death, The Legacy, and I'm just going to stop now. Truth is, my favorite is whichever of my "favorites" I am currently listening to. Each album has at least one or two songs (but usually more) that really grab hold of me every time I listen, and most of those songs do so in a different way so that I can't consider any one of them to be "better" than the others.
