Bring Your Daughter... to the Slaughter

The song was originally recorded and released by Bruce Dickinson for the soundtrack to A Nightmare on Elm Street 5: The Dream Child,[4][5] but Steve Harris liked it so Iron Maiden rerecorded it.

In 1989, while Iron Maiden were taking a break from touring, Zomba asked Dickinson to write a song for A Nightmare on Elm Street 5: The Dream Child.

[5] Teaming up with former Gillan (and future Iron Maiden) guitarist Janick Gers, Dickinson recorded the song, which he claims he wrote "in about three minutes," and the project was expanded into an album, Tattooed Millionaire.

[8] Upon hearing the completed track, Steve Harris decided that it would be "great for Maiden" and convinced Dickinson not to put it on his solo album.

[7] This was in spite of a ban by the BBC,[12] who refused to play the song on Radio 1 and showed at least 2 minutes of the live clip for Top of the Pops.
