    Al, I'm going to do something I have not done much of before, and agree with you....I just saw Superman Returns tonight, and it was pretty freakin' sweet. I thought it was well plotted, well scripted, the effects were fantastic, and Routh was fantastic as Superman. also, a classy touch during the credits, to have the film dedicated to the late, great Christopher Reeve

    if they decide to make any more Superman films, hopefully they will live up to what this one achieved.

    Thank God someone agrees! I'm so pissed about the box office totals! I'n seeing it again Tuesday after work. If they don't make a sequel, I'll be pissed!

  2. 1) Kid Gloves-I'm not anti-gay or a gay basher, but I don't want to hear Rush trying to SOUND gay...

     

    I disagree! KG kicks ass!

     

     

    2) Red Lenses-This along with "Kid Gloves" does NOT belong on the otherwise great GUP...

     

    One of my favorite Rush songs! If only it were included on Replay X 3!

     

     

    3) Open Secrets-Rush started losing me here...

     

    Love it!

     

     

    4) Lock and Key-The chorus is OK, but getting to it is complete boredom and silly grade school lyrics...

    Kinda sucks, but nice drum solo!

     

     

    5) Tai Shan-OMG...please, Neil, stop it.

     

    Alex Lifeson & I agree! Yuck!

     

     

    6) High Water-Completely void of anything memorable.

    Sounds like an 80's version of something off Hemispheres to me!

     

     

     

    7) Anagram (for Mongo)-Boredom is creeping in.

     

     

    I agree!

     

     

    8) Red Tide-OMG Neil, enough with the cheesy "red" metaphors. Its not 8th grade literature class.

     

     

    I like his "red" songs! It's the color of Rush & my favorite color!

     

     

    9) Hand Over Fist-Neil's getting even more lame with the lyrics and his own self-feeling of "cleverness" while reciting trite cliche'd expressions and thinking he's being profound by offering cheesy plays on words.

     

     

     

    I like it...

     

     

    10) Available Light-This lightbulb burned out in the first 10 seconds. Reverb anyone?

     

    Like this one too!

     

     

     

     

    11) Bravado-Why they continue to bore us to death with this crap song is beyond me.

     

     

    LOVE it, but tired of it in concert!

     

     

    12) Face Up-Wait, how does this one go? Oh yeah, that's my point.

     

     

    LOVE it!!!!!

     

     

     

    13) The Big Wheel-More of Neil's cheesy word plays. How's this one go? Sing it, c'mon...wait, you CAN'T....you can't get any "uncatchy-er"...

     

     

     

    One of the most lyrically catchy songs IMHO!

    Wheel goes round

    Landing on a twist of fate

    Life redirected in ways unexpected

     

    VERY catchy!

     

    14) Heresy-More self profound liberal drool and complete lack of musical interest.

     

    EXCELLENT song!

     

     

    15) Neurotica-Very 90's. Very reverby. Geddy can't seem to sing a melody anymore...just talks stacato lines.

     

    Kinda boring!

     

     

    16) You Bet Your Life-Please Neil, your lyrics, while I used to enjoy them, make me puke. Stop the cheesy similes using "like" and "as"...you act as if since you read a literature book after leaving school, that you're the only one who knows what imagery is about...but your childhood level irony and reciting cheesy stereotypical sayings are even more rote than country lyrics.

     

     

    One of my favorites!!!!

     

     

    More later...
