Going with Red Sector A as my favorite, followed by Red Barchetta, then Red Lenses and finally, Red Tide.

Oh... you mean in the title?

 

Red Barchetta (though I prefer Starless)

Easiest poll ever, though Red Sector A is a top 40 song with great lyrics.

[Greedy Oak]

Voted Barchetta because I enjoy the story it tells but Red Sector A is top notch too.

[Geddy's Soul Patch]

Red Barchetta, no contest! All the others are awesome, but Red Barchetta is a masterpiece Edited January 15, 2015 by Geddy's Soul Patch

[RUSHHEAD666]

Going with Red Sector A as my favorite, followed by Red Barchetta, then Red Lenses and finally, Red Tide.

 

Another easy Rush Poll! "RED LENSES!"

The Red Nose (part III of Peart's aging fears)

[EagleMoon]

Red Barchetta by a long shot.

[Mr. Not]

Red Barchetta, no second thoughts.

 

Second thought: I didn't expect Lenses or Tide to get any votes, but I did expect some votes for Sector A... Currently Lenses has 2 and Sector A / Tide 0 both.

You have a vote to use too, you know ;)

4) Red Lenses

I love all of them, but really this is between Red Sector A and Red Barchetta. I think I'll go with Red Sector A for nostalgic reasons. Grace Under Pressure was the first album I owned and RSA was one of the first songs I learned to play on keyboards. Plus, it's cool.

[Relayer2112]

Red Barchetta is the perfect Rush song for several reasons.

 

Great lyrics

Catchy riffs (who doesn't drive just a little over the speed limit when they hear that middle bit)

and ... doesn't overstay its welcome.

Very close for me between Barchetta and Sector A. Went with Barchetta because it makes me just a bit more happy when they play it live.

[JARG]

Barchetta > Lenses > Sector A > Tide

I'm surprised no one has voted for Red Tide. I'm tempted to do so.

[furie]

Red Barchetta is probably in Rush's top 5 songs.

I agree, Grace Under Pressure was my introduction to Rush and I love that album. I was impressed with Geddy and Alex talking about their parents experience in WWII on Beyond the Lighted Stage, so that led me to GUP and I played it over and over, I love Neil's drumming in it too. I enjoy the story of Red Barchetta, so it is a close second. Red Lenses then Red Tide (since I don't listen to it much but it's good too).

[circumstantial tree]

I prefer Red Barchetta. But after that, it's Red Tide, Red Lenses, then Red Sector A.
