"Iron Maiden" is a song by Iron Maiden on their debut album Iron Maiden. It was written by Steve Harris and had been before featured on The Soundhouse Tapes. The original recording featured Dennis Stratton and Dave Murray on guitars. The song is now well known as the band's signature song to the general public (along with "The Number of the Beast" and "Run to the Hills") and is usually played as one of the last songs of any given show. It writes about the spirit of an actual iron maiden torture device - it is not, contrary to belief relating to the band itself.
The song has been the band's "final song" (when they leave the stage only to come back for their encores) for many tours.
