rickyrob Posted April 7, 2005 Share Posted April 7, 2005 I can sing a lot of the songs! There are so many sing-along songs on CP, and they are all excellent Animate, CTTC, Alien Shore, Between Sun and Moon, Cold Fire I can sing all of these as they are in the right key for me. I think in a lot of other songs, Geddy just sings too high for me, and I can NEVER hit the notes, without sounding really geeky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yyzyy Posted April 7, 2005 Share Posted April 7, 2005 !! Right now, I'm really into to Presto, but a couple of weeks ago, I was really into CP...Especially Cut to the Chase, Leave That Thing Alone, and Cold Fire!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've recently got the remaster of Presto, its so much better than the rather muted original (which I had only on vinyl) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But there are many other great Rush workout tunes. I keep a mix for that. I can't just do CP. As an album goes, I think CP is one of Rush's greatest ever. From start to finish there is not a bad moment on it, imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My_Shrimp_Cot Posted April 8, 2005 Share Posted April 8, 2005 I like the second half of RiR for working out. If One Little Victory doesn't get you going, your dead.! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

defrushfan01 Posted April 8, 2005 Share Posted April 8, 2005 Ya i totally agree. OLV is great for working out to. But i like the sound from CP over VP just because of the quality of the mix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cato76 Posted April 8, 2005 Share Posted April 8, 2005 I have to agree Counterparts is a great cd. Animate is one of Rush's best constructed songs, in my opinion. Great live too. Wish they would have put it on RIR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iluvgeddy05 Posted April 8, 2005 Share Posted April 8, 2005 I always say that Counterparts is my "angry album". I listen to it whenever I am pissed off or in a bad mood -- it just releases so much frustration started with Animate and going through Stick it Out and Chase right after. By the time I reach Nobody's Hero, I've calmed down some and....when it gets time to the end of the album, Everyday Glory lifts my spirits and gets me all inspired and whatnot (like every Rush album in one way or another) and...I'm in an good mood again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeilPeartFan2112 Posted April 8, 2005 Share Posted April 8, 2005 Counterparts is great. I love to drum to many of the songs on there. Animate, Stick It Out, Cut To The Chase. Man, I love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gopherman Posted April 8, 2005 Share Posted April 8, 2005 Oh hell, all Rush albums, and I mean ALL, are great. I always liked Counterparts, but I forgot about it. Then, at the Vapor Trails concert, they played Between the Sun and Moon and I thought that maybe I'd better give the CD another listen. That was quite awhile ago and I've listened to it a dozens of times since then. Cold Fire - why do I get the impression that one is semi autobiographical?
