Rush album you identify with the most

[Carvan Alex]

What Rush album do you identify with the most? Meaning, as far as lyrics regarding your situations, feelings of the moment, your story, etc. The one I identify with the most is "Clockwork Angels". I want to travel and see the world, learn new things, be non-conformist from old beliefs (BU2B). I've also learned not to hold grudges against people for bad things they did to me (Wish them Well, even though that song is trashed by fans here), as well as reflection in hoping one day I tell my future children about journey. What about you?

[Lorraine]

There is no entire one album for me. Songs here and there, but not all on a single Rush album.

[prolix]

Power Windows is very meaningful to me.

I love Wish Them Well

[goose]

Probably Permanent Waves. Generally upbeat, with just the right amount of complexity and attitude.

[Ancient Ways]

Farewell to kings I want to walk the caves of ice and chow down on some honeydew. Quench my thirst with some milk.

[rocket ignites]

Roll the Bones quickly came to mind. Chance, randomness, searching for meaning. The cynical clashing with the hopeful.

[Blue J]

Hold Your Fire

 

Tragedy, reflection, regret, acceptance...and then optimism.

[Carvan Alex]

 

I love Wish Them Well

Glad I am not the only one who likes it. :)

[EagleMoon]

AFTKs and Hemispheres. I want to take a spaceship through a black hole and meet the gods.

[GeddysMullet]

Vapor Trails for its themes of cautiously rediscovering life and hope after crushing devastation.

[Lucas]

The Debut

 

It's simple, kicks major ass, and can be played over and over in a single night and keep coming back for more

 

Just like me

 

Not to mention, it's got its whole life ahead of it, and will only get better

I feel a silent scream begin inside

 

Things that I once dreamed of

Have become reality

 

Just one more who's searching for

A world that ought to be

 

Sometimes I'm butt naked, sometimes I'm not

I considered it. It was the first ever concert I saw after all. And it was the first new Rush album that I was drooling over. [Moving Pictures being the album that made me the big fan]. Signals though seems like the loner & misfit mind at work. I might've been a misfit but I wasn't really a loner. Think "Mikey" from Goonies and I think it's reasonably accurate to how I was at age 12.

That was the first RUSH gig for me too. They got to the UK in Spring 1983 on that tour, my gig was in Birmingham, Sabbath and Priest country!

Mine was late winter/early spring '83 in Jax, FL. I probably saw them a couple of months before you. I was 10 though.

Should look that up for the exact dates on both.

I can't remember if mine was the first of the NEC gigs or the second. It was May anyway.

Yours was one of these: May 14th, 15th, or 22nd in '83. 3 concerts in Birmingham with 4 London gigs between the 2nd and 3rd Birmingham gigs. Weird.

 

Mine was March 16, 1983.

[treeduck]

I think it was the second one because it was a Sunday, so May 15. They did a 3rd one in Birmingham later in the month.

There was no supporting act for my gig but you had Jon Butcher Axis, how did you like that lot?

I remember Jon Butcher Axis. He had one song that I knew and wasn't bad actually. It didn't matter because people still threw frisbees at the stage.

 

I've told you this before but during SoR (opening tune), some idiot on the floor [General Admission days] was stabbing people with a knife. A few had minor injuries and security took him away. Rush didn't know about it until after the show.
