ozzy85 Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 In a early, jammy way. Sure. Fun to jam to, kinda like By-Tor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Planet X-1 Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 the first album is the worst album. No it most certainly isn't. Completely agree. However since I don`t own the album, it is the worst CD of the bunch.. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New_World_Man Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 I voted the third one down. Top forty maybe but not top twenty. Rush just have too many songs too chose from. I do like WM and it's one of the best on the first album but if it was released by any other band hardly anyone would probably know about it.

JohnnyBlaze Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 I couldn't tell you my Top 5 let alone Top 20. But I like it a lot and without it who knows if Rush would've gotten any substantial radio play? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Planet X-1 Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 ....and without it who knows if Rush would've gotten any substantial radio play? without Working Man, no Old Rush nor Nu Rush (which would please many...) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ytserush Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 ....and without it who knows if Rush would've gotten any substantial radio play? without Working Man, no Old Rush nor Nu Rush (which would please many...) I totally acknowledge it's place in history, but that doesn't mean I have to like it. Here Again and Before And After are my favorites from that album and Finding My Way and What You're Doing are great too. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheAccountant Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 (edited) Yes it is. It used to be a top 10 song but its fallen a bit so its now between 10 and 15. Edited November 25, 2017 by TheAccountant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laughedatbytime Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 Definitely top 20 even though the lyrics portray someone who doesn't even work a 40 day week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewWorldScott Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 I love the song, and it still has one of Alex's most crungy and rocking riffs ever. The lyrics are good and the song is fun. But with the catalog this band has, I can't say the song would land in or near the Top 20 for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick N. Backer Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 Guys, you’re on a Rush fan board. You don’t have to say you only like the obscure songs to prove your bona fides. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don’t have to say you only like the obscure songs to prove your bona fides.[I think people are taking Geddy's "sometimes people like Presto" a little too seriously.

Tony R Posted December 2, 2017 Share Posted December 2, 2017 It stands up well as an enduring hard rock classic. In my top 30 Rush songs definitely. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toymaker Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 Working man is the sine qua nonOf what? A Rush setlist Well, if sine qua non loosely translates to "without which, nothing" - then Working Man fits that definition. If it hadn't been played on the radio, Rush might not have made it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucas Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 What is your favorite song to play live ? Geddy: Working Man for me .. I love playing Working Man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
