bluefox4000 Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 I really hate that Grace Under Pressure is on the way out. Ggggrrrr It's got Kid Gloves and Red Lenses, which are both sub par. it's actually just got bad music. Mick As does Hemispheres. I just dislike p/g so much. What a road bump to the 80's run. Mick I think it is the equal of both Permanent Waves and Moving Pictures. Agree to Disagree. It makes me just roll my eyes. Mick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorraine Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 (edited) Maybe we should start planning a party for the winner? We could go into the chat room and have a listening party. :) Or we could stay right here and listen. :) :) Edited March 9, 2015 by Lorraine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, by the time it gets organized we'll have to do another poll to be sure everyone still thinks the same.

Mick I think it is the equal of both Permanent Waves and Moving Pictures. I don't go that far, but I do think it's a great album. Red Lenses is the only dud on it, as far as I'm concerned. I voted Signals today. As many great songs as there are on it, it has Chemistry, which is just...meh. And Losing It. Actually, Losing It is enough just by itself to sink Signals, at this stage of the proceedings. The song just brings me down. And I don't need any more help with that.

You think you will be forever young. And then, you learn "that you are only immortal, for a limited time." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toymaker Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 Some people just don't have the right chemistry to enjoy Chemistry. Great (but often overlooked or dismissed) song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And as far as immortality/mortality is concerned, I learned that lesson very early as well. I just think it makes the album drag a bit, that's all.

Mick I do too, but I think the reason that is is because it doesn't have a real definable hook with the title in the chorus repeated over and over. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geddy's Soul Patch Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 I always see people calling Red Lenses a dud, even if you don't like the majority of the song, it builds to such an epic climax! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I do think it drags a little bit. Very close between Signals and Grace Under Pressure. Both are nines, on a ten-scale. In my opinion.

toymaker Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 I haven't seen any votes for Permanent Waves in the last few rounds. (I haven't checked them all.) The albums on either side have got votes, though. Perhaps there's no need to prolong this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I kind of had the same idea, but then thought, no, some things you just . . . don't . . . joke about. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
