Nova Carmina Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 That's like asking which one of Sofia Vergara's boobs I like better. They're both equally awesome. Now I can't even remember what I was going to post . . . . Oh, right: so they're equally awesome music-wise, I went with "Xanadu" because _as a Poet_ Samuel Taylor Coleridge > Neil Peart . . . From "Xanadu" I got into Romanticism: Blake, Shelley, Byron; from "2112" I read Ayn Rand, and Romanticism >>>>>>>>> Ayn Rand . . . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheAccountant Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 Xanadu is an amazing song. A top 10 Rush song for me. Problem it has in this match-up is that 2112 is my very favorite Rush song. 2112 gets my vote. BTW, in case you are curious, my top 10 would be: 1. 21122. Subdivisions3. Time Stand Still4. Freewill5. Limelight6. Red Barchetta7. Tom Sawyer8. By-Tor & the Snow Dog9. Xanadu10. Something for Nothing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EagleMoon Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 Xanadu for sure but 2112 is no slouch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek19 Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 I've decided to pick by voting for my always number one favorite Rush song "Xanadu". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seeburg220 Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 Xanadu is the song I first heard in 10th grade, using headphones, that solidified Rush’s appeal to me. As for some calling it soft, it is soft and hard. The last measure of the song is bombastic, not soft!An added bonus for me came in 12th grade, when we studied the poem Kubla Kahn in English class, of which Peart was inspired by, to write Xanadu. It has always been the epic (and I hate that word) Rush song for me. And while Olivia Newton John’s version isn’t the same caliber song, it was written by Jeff Lynne of ELO. And Olivia is a fox, so that helps. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laurabw Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 Used to be Xanadu, now it’s 2112 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Entre_Perpetuo Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 This is one of the few match ups in Rush catalogue where I could really go either way anymore. I think I'll change my vote to make it a tie! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
