blueschica Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 I'm a little tired from the holidays. I keep reading this as POOPIEST Rush song and I'm thinking "Why would Texas King ask that??" :P 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tas7 Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 Big Wheel reminds me of Bryan Adams.Dreamline reminds me of Pat BenatarSuper Conductor reminds me of Footloose.Can't listen to Second Nature without thinking of that awful 70's song, Lucky Stars with that line, 'You can thank your lucky stars that we're not as smart as we'd like to think we are.'

Justus_2112 Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 The Big Wheel. It's poppy, but I still like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lurkst Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 From this century Sweet Miracle, The Larger Bowl and Wish Them Well stand out for me as Rush attempts at power pop. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bhawk2112 Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 I've always thought that if they ever did sit down and say, "OK, let's try and write a radio hit," that would have become Half The World. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
graptemys Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 I agree that Roll the Bones is the most poppy album. You can't deny that "you bet your life" is very, very poppy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony990 Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 Either Roll the Bones, Face Up, the live version of Scars (on the Presto tour), or Superconductor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lifeson90 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 yeah You Bet Your Life a great track and indeed very very poppy. Ged's bass intro to Neurotico though.. Sexehh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carvan Alex Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 To me, Rush had a few "poppy" songs. Lucas took it straight from me when he said "Superconductor." Such a catchy song that it could have been a Top 40 hit if there was a radio edit for it. I also felt "Losing It" could have played on soft-rock stations (yes, to me it was THAT mellow).

Narps Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 (edited) No matter what, Hold Your Fire has the most songs that qualify for this. Some may choose "Time Stand Still" as most poppy, but I think it's "Second Nature." Easily. The only song in Rush's catalogue that would be right at home with Celine Dion singing on it. It's AM radio adult contemporary, and I can't believe it's a Rush song.This^^^. My initial though too...Too late to fix. Insert a t up there^^^lol...

I remember when Hold Your Fire came out Geddy said he was just into writing great vocal melodies. Hold Your Fire is full of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LedRush Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 It's funny how people are associating pop with things they don't like. Sad funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
