08leader Posted January 28, 2005 Share Posted January 28, 2005 one of their worst songs ever is superconductor. in my opion. i hate the voice over. If the voice over was geddy lee maybe i would like it more. But it is some dude instead.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darth by tor Posted January 28, 2005 Share Posted January 28, 2005 "Stupid" conductor is pretty much rubbish. the voice over can really start to grate after a while, and the promo video, hilarious! The biggest Faux pass in rush's live history was linking Xanadu to this on the RTB's tour, Talk about killing the mood "XAAAAANNNAAA.....Packaged like a rebel or a hero!"

darth by tor Posted January 28, 2005 Share Posted January 28, 2005 Superconductors vid is worse than the song itself and for those of you who are interested "The Dude" you sings the refrain is the producer of presto Rubert Hine. He's a f*cking pop music producer!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spike Posted January 28, 2005 Share Posted January 28, 2005 Sometimes Superconductor seems overplayed to me, and I get sick of hearing it - but still think it's a pretty good song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moonraker Posted January 28, 2005 Share Posted January 28, 2005 QUOTE (Spike @ Jan 28 2005, 02:17 PM) Sometimes Superconductor seems overplayed to me, and I get sick of hearing it - but still think it's a pretty good song. I've only heard it played twice before on the radio. I could see how too much airplay could make someone sick of it, but it isnt played at all. Personally, I like it and wouldnt mind seeing it come back on the setlist one last time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PuppetKing2112 Posted January 28, 2005 Share Posted January 28, 2005 I LOVE Supercomductor...and the whole Presto album for that matter...one of the best of their career.   And no, I have not seen the video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pags Posted January 28, 2005 Share Posted January 28, 2005 You know I think there's a Madonna tribute site you guys could post at. I have no songs to add to a 'worst' list. Whatever songs I don't connect with is due to my own limitations... not the band's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think my comments on the Dog Years thread echo yours Pag but in a bit more detail. By the way, I love Superconductor and most of the Presto album.

Red Porschetta Posted January 29, 2005 Share Posted January 29, 2005 The Bass guitar alone on Superconductor makes up for the video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowdog Posted January 29, 2005 Share Posted January 29, 2005 Ya know, a lot of people hate this song, but I really don't mind it. It's kinda catchy. but I will agree it isn't the best song to segue into Xanadu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Test4VitalSigns Posted January 29, 2005 Share Posted January 29, 2005 you know....I respect everyone's right to their opinion but why does someone post such negative threads of their favourite band like this? This board should CELEBRATE Rush's music not nitpick at the so-called ricy tunes they have. Every band has their share of clunkers as they r not perfect but I just find it odd for someone to dump on them like this. My 2 cents worth...

Slaine mac Roth Posted January 29, 2005 Share Posted January 29, 2005 I also agree with that position, not that I'm denying anyone the right to not like anything by a particular band nor to make their opinions known. However, it seems to me that some people take the stance that their opinion is the definitive statement on the matter. This, of course, is very annoying to those of us whose opinion IS the definitive statement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
