Best songs from middle of the pack albums by your favorite artist?

What are some of your favorite songs from the more average albums by your favorite bands?

My choice would be Key Entity Extraction II: Holly Wood the Cracked from Coheed and Cambria's album The Afterman: Ascension. The Afterman albums are just under Good Apollo Im Burning Star Vol IV: From Fear through the Eyes of Madness and In Keeping Secrets of Silent Earth: 3 for me, so I'd say they qualify as middle of the pack, despite the fact that I think they're both great albums.

So what are your favorite songs from your not-favorite albums by your favorite artists?

why such an oddly specific question

anyway,

While I thought With Teeth and Year Zero were meh albums overall for NIN, I still think Right Where it Belongs and Zero-Sum are a couple of Trent's better songs.

I know Powerslave is a well known Maiden album, but this song is the reason why I love it the most out of any of their albums

theyre not for everyone. their style changes from album to album since theyre a prog rock band, and all of their albums are part of an overarching "concept"- basically this low fantasy scifi war saga, a story that the lead singer concocted. there are some graphic novels/comics too

heres probably their best song from their best album, about one of the central characters of the series- claudio, who is basically space jesus. if you dont like this one, they might not be for you
