Entre_Perpetuo Posted November 26, 2016 Share Posted November 26, 2016 Great matchup; tough choice. NWM is more of a song, but VS is more Rushy and interesting, plus it saved MP for me on my first few listens (initially WH and TCE didn't impress me, and I'd already heard TS, Limelight, and YYZ of course, which only left RB as great new Rush to my ears until VS finished off the album strong). I'll go with VS. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eel Yddeg Posted November 26, 2016 Share Posted November 26, 2016 I hate both songs, both bland Police impressions. Vital Signs is the lesser of two evils, I like the outro, especially on GUP live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carvan Alex Posted November 27, 2016 Share Posted November 27, 2016 I voted New World Man even though it's not that popular. Vital Signs didn't seem to connect with me, whereas New World Man was more upbeat (unRush like but still), whereas Vital Signs typical despite the reggae influence. And NWM didn't change my stance on "Signals," it's still my favorite Rush album. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So though it may not be mentioned among Rush fans too often, it certainly got plenty of radio play back in those days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
