Batman Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 Went with witch hunt on this one close call but I love this verse: Quick to judge Quick to anger Slow to understand Ignorance and prejudice And fear walk hand in hand... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thetrees Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 had to go with TOM SAWYER just because it is one of the classic gateway songs for getting into rush....Lord knows it was for me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hap Posted December 31, 2004 Share Posted December 31, 2004 Red Barchetta The lyrics and the music are both excellent. But I love the lyrics of Witch Hunt and the music of YYZ as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfuentes Posted January 3, 2005 Share Posted January 3, 2005 Red Barchetta, in a close decision with all of the songs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pags Posted January 5, 2005 Share Posted January 5, 2005 Yeah right - ask us to pick ONE song that is better than the rest on Moving Pictures. Moving Pictures is a masterpiece from beginning to end. It is practically impossible to break it apart into pieces and select which is stronger than the others. For the purpose of this vote only, I went with Limelight. And it actually hurts to leave the others unselected. The Camera Eye probably is the Rush song that has penetrated my personal history more than any Rush song. I would do my homework to that song every night, and keep getting up to put the stylus back to the beginning of side 2. But so often I would let side 2 play out, because Witch Hunt and Vital Signs were too good to skip. However, Limelight I suppose stands the test of time as one of the greatest songs in Rush's history (imo). For some crazy reason it is the one song that I feel encapsulizes (is that a word?) their entire career from start to finish. This song stands out amongst the others for this reason, and it gets my vote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfuentes Posted January 8, 2005 Share Posted January 8, 2005 Is it just me or do Neil's drum beats seem simpler than his other works? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let The Fray Begin Posted February 23, 2005 Share Posted February 23, 2005 Limelight is one of the first Rush songs I ever heard, and the song that got me wanting to explore more about the band....... for that reason, it will always be one of my favorite songs, and definetely my favorite on this album.

Ru5h F@n Posted April 15, 2005 Share Posted April 15, 2005 (edited) QUOTE (RushRevisited @ Aug 23 2004, 10:38 PM) What do you think is the best song from this album? I liked The Camera Eye. A 11 min song. It was the last longest song that Rush ever recorded. I also liked it because it just seemed to hit me more than the other songs. Too bad it wasn't a hit on the radio. It would have done well, I think IMO. Rules! Edited April 15, 2005 by Ru5h F@n 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sullysue Posted April 17, 2005 Share Posted April 17, 2005 I like Vital Signs because it has a regge beat and tone to it. It just seemed really unique for Rush. I love "Everybody need a soft filter." Just a cool song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

happysmiles007 Posted April 29, 2005 Share Posted April 29, 2005 The Camera Eye..it paints a picture of a clean-cut, black & white world..it takes me away to that special place, & if i stay too long, i'd prolly break down & cry but it really is one of Rush's best songs ever IMO, & i could listen to it for days on end & not get tired of it.

Huck Posted April 30, 2005 Share Posted April 30, 2005 It's Tom Sawyer for me...I never get tired of hearing it....there's just something about it that kindles something inside me. I love the music and the lyrics, I've always found it fascinating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drumrchick Posted May 5, 2005 Share Posted May 5, 2005 It was hard for me to choose a song as well. This was the first Rush CD my mom ever bought me. I chose Vital Songs. It's kind of mysterious and dark. I relate to mood swings and being different. Karen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
