tx_rush Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 Manhattan Project is one of Rush's most overrated songs IMO 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueschica Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 I think Dreamline is one of the better songs from RTB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HemiBeers Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 I think Dreamline is one of the better songs from RTB.well yeah not much competition on that album. When Neil does historical narration songs like Manhattan or Countdown, the lyrics just sound hokey. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Neil does historical narration songs like Manhattan or Countdown, the lyrics just sound hokey. I don’t like or dislike either lyrics from Manhattan or Dreamline. Musically, Dreamline wins so that’s what I voted for. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pjbear05 Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 Equally excellent songs, studio or live, IMHO. Gonna sit this one out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Your_Lion Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 Manhattan Project for me When I saw them on the CA tour, I knew that it was either going to be Manhattan Project or Dreamline in the set. I was so happy I went on a Manhattan Project night Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Entre_Perpetuo Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 Dreamline is the guitar version of DEW musically, though it breaks some new ground lyrically. I love the lyrics in Manhattan Project, or more especially the delivery. It's like Rush heard Iron Maiden had been doing historical lyrics successfully and actually getting pretty emotional points across and decided to try the same thing in a different context musically and wound up succeeding stupendously. When Ged cries "flying out the shockwave," I feel more emotional connection to WWII than I ever felt in history class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClashWho Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 I love both of these songs, but "Manhattan Project" edges out "Dreamline" for me. They're both terrific musically, and both contain some of my all-time favorite Rush lyrics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
