  1. 1. Which one is worse?

    • Neurotica
      15
    • The Speed of Love
      20

Neurotica is definitely a more playable and listenable song. Good guitar solo too. Despite it's flaws it seems like a very earnest effort by the band.

 

Speed of Love seems like it was deliberatly written and composed to be a horrible joke. A nerds love letter to a chick who won't talk to him (for good reason).

Most of CP sounds like a horrible joke. Don't know why they speak so highly of it.

The nineties weren't very good Rush years.

In my expert opinion about half of each album is good. Bowl City would disagree on at least one of those......

I grew up in the 90's. It was enough to make you want to deny any knowledge of Rush :LOL:

I got into Rush in the 90's. Roll the Bones, Counterparts and Test for Echo only made me more intrigued with the band.

I think I like three songs on each of the albums and that. is. it.

Well that would be almost 25 % of Snakes and Arrows if we were discussing it..... :LOL:

I can't do it now. I've been on a roll today and I have to save something for tomorrow. I would need to re-listen to RTB, CP and T4E and I am not in the mood right now. I will need a couple Ativan's before I attempt such a feat in one sitting.... :)

Save your strength for tomorrow. You will need it. And don't include S&A in your listening spree. It might do you in for sure.

I knew I could count on you! :wub:

 

TSOL has some beautiful lyrics, and where some people say the band sound bored, I think they sound smooth. And Geddy's vocals are really soulful. I love everything about this song (Counterparts is overall a really enjoyable album in my opinion).

I listened to Speed of love again. Awful song but......main problem is there's no conviction behind the singing. it's not selling me on the song. I Neuroctica knows it's silly and sells it. I don't know if that makes sense but......that's how i see it.

:LOL: No way. I wouldn't even listen to all of the post 00' albums in one sitting. Just to toss this out there.... At the gym this morning I was listening to my Rush channel on Pandora and TSOR came on from Rush In Rio :scared: Yowza did that sound awful....

I don't particularly care for TSOL lyrics either, but they are better than the lyrics to Neurotica. I don't know how Geddy sang Neurotica with a straight face.

I can agree with that, but Neurotica has a killer main riff. And a killer nothing else at all, but at least there's that.
