"Wildest Dreams" is a single from the Iron Maiden 13th studio album Dance of Death, released in 2003. The band began performing the song in concert before the album was released. The single also includes an improvisational jam from the Dance of Death sessions, as well as a remixed orchestral version of the Brave New World track "Blood Brothers".

The music video is a computer animated short, where the band members drive around a desolate planet and into the mouth of Eddie (as depicted on the CD single cover). [1]

At the beginning of the song, drummer Nicko McBrain can be heard counting off in an American accent.
