I'm starting a mini-thing-a-thing where we can all have some fun ranking songs from different eras of Rush for their 50th Anniversary. And yes, for this one, your list includes songs from just Rush, Fly By Night, Caress of Steel, and 2112 together. Then if this turns out great, I'll do one with A Farewell To Kings, Hemispheres, Permanent Waves, and Moving Pictures next. Then it's Signals, Grace Under Pressure, Power Windows, and Hold Your Fire... and so on You can do a Top 10, Top 20, Top 30, or hell just rank them all. I'll come back with mine in a while and hopefully this thread gets going

1. Grace Under Pressure 2. Power Windows 3. Signals 4. Hold Your Fire

I think the crowds would tear up if they played "The Garden" again

It's like how so many parasocial "fans" have been talking about Linkin Park this last year lmao

BREAKING: Rush won't play any songs from Feedback.

Damn, I need to come back to this one later.

NO SRSLY WHAAAAT

WTF

- Either you love it or you hate it (Vapor Trails) - Greatest album of all time (Moving Pictures) - Overlooked masterpiece (Grace Under Pressure) - Mental breakdown (Roll the Bones) - The one everyone forgets about (Snakes & Arrows) - Which divides the fandom (Caress of Steel) - Fan favourite (A Farewell to Kings) - locals favourite (Signals)

90. “The Fountain Of Lamneth”, Track 5/5 (19:57), Caress Of Steel (1975) Caress Of Steel - Entry 3 out of 5 ...And here is the most debated Rush song of all. As we all know, this makes up Side B of Caress Of Steel, and closes the album. For me, this 20 minute epic opens structurally exciting with "In the Valley" - just an excellent, building intro into soaring guitars and vocals. Then we get "Didacts and Narpets", which is mostly a drum solo with Geddy Lee screaming single words - totally okay. My favorite piece is "No One At The Bridge", mainly because I love Lifeson's clean riffs. Then there is "Panacea" - which kind of falls this track down here for me - it works well in the grand scheme of the song's story, but the song itself is somewhat bleh. It ends great with "Bacchus Plateau" and the reminiscent "The Fountain". Great stepping stone for Rush. Below: Why is it titled "The Fountain of Lamenth"? Previously on my list... 91. “Secret Touch”, Track 8/13 (6:34) - Entry 9/13, Vapor Trails (2002) 90. “The Fountain Of Lamneth”, Track 5/5 (19:57) - Entry 3/5, Caress Of Steel (1975) How is this album doing? 5. “I Think I’m Going Bald”, Track 2/5 (3:41) - #146/173 4. “Lakeside Park”, Track 3/5 (4:07) - #120/173 3. “The Fountain Of Lamneth”, Track 5/5 (19:57) - #90/173

Get ready for #90. That is all.
