chemistry1973 Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 This topic is almost ten years old! Holy shit. Rivendell and Panacea are f***ing great songs. There are some fantastic covers online too. to the haters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorraine Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 (edited) It would be between Panacea and Rivendell. Can't decide right now. Edit: Went with Panacea Edited February 13, 2019 by Lorraine 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Na na na Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 Panacea, really great song 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skullchrist Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 Although COS is my favorite album of all time I had to go with Rivnedell. The imagery it evokes is just absolutely magickal and ethereal. You really feel like you're there and I'm not bullshitting. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could’ve been an actual scene in LOTR- Geddy as a hobbit around a campfire... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goose Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 1. Panacea2. Rivendell 3. Madrigal :boo hiss: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Entre_Perpetuo Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 Easily Madrigal. Perfect song for the role it plays on the record, with a great lyric too. Actually one of the few examples of a Rush "love song." Panacea is one as well, but it's made a bit more Rushy by being a scene in larger story rather than a standalone song topic. Anyway Madrigal's my fav, followed by Panacea then Rivendell (b/c Rivendell is just pretty...and that's all it is). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jnoble Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 Alex singled out Panacea not long ago in an interview as one of his picks for worst Rush songs along with Tai Shan. Its actually been one of my favs from that suite. The thing about Rivendell I don't care for isn't even the song itself, its how low it is volume-wise. I practically have to max out my cars speakers just to hear it properly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chemistry1973 Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 COS = the band on the road. Evading responsibility and hooking up with Panaceas they’d marry if they lived in the same town. The necromancer (the lure of home life in a suburban trap) nipping at their heals... Bastille Day - summertime. A Declaration of Independence from the adult world of responsibility- time to hit the road instead and live a DREAM. One of the beat albums in rock music.

Derek19 Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 (edited) I've liked all three of them. With, on, and in for this poll, the song "Tears" should've been included in it. With all of Rush's ballads, have a voting poll of them. I felt I needed to have voted for "Panacea". Edited February 18, 2019 by Derek19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
