There was actually a thread about this fairly recently so my picks are fresh in my mind.

 

It'll come as no surprise to some...

 

1) Middletown Dreams (loath, loath, loooooooooooaath)

 

Weird coincidence that your member title is from the lyrics.

 

You shut up, you, you...vandal. :poke:

 

Seems like a lot of these songs being picked are more of the NERDY Rush songs. They dont really Rock like others

 

Rush took a Risk with most of these picks, Middletown dreams is super nerdy also Mystic Rhythms is also one of these My mothers favorite RUSH song of all time btw, We heard it live in 1986

 

Nobody's hero RULES but it was a risky song back then, It certainly made me cringe. Some of these songs were embarrassing to listen to with my Guy friends in school. Ive grown to love them all over the years. So have my friends all of us nearly 40 now, They are mature songs

 

I love Mystic Rhythms, and Nobody's Hero...absolutely. Mystic Rhythms has an awesome beat and sound plus the imagery of the lyrics is just cool (as an Anthropology student in college it spoke to me). Nobody's Hero is beautiful despite 'that line' w/ gorgeous acoustic guitar and heartbreakingly poignant lyrics that Geddy sings beautifully. I love that song...not top 5 but just beyond, 6 or 7 at least.

1. Half the World --biggest POS they ever recorded. Embarrassing lyrics, would have failed as a fifth grade poetry assignment

3. You Bet Your Life

 

4. Anagram

 

5. Face Up

 

5. Heresy

A lot of HYF, Presto, Roll the Bones, Counterparts and T4E should be fighting it out here.

You're not just going to rank them by popularity? :huh:

In no particular order.

 

Bravest Face

Good News First

Sweet Miracle

You Bet Your Life

Hand Over Fist

 

 

 

You bet your life is hands down the hardest song to sing and play

 

I know every word of it,

 

But the others you mentioned seem to be pretty crappy to people,

Listening to Tai Shan right now, and apart from Geddy's ridiculous keyboard choices, I enjoy it. Alex's "chinese" guitar work is cool, and the vocal harmonies are nice.

 

 

But those flutey sounds... :facepalm:

Face Up

Second Nature

Dog Years

Virtuality

Tai Shan/Superconductor/Neurotica...one of those for fifth place.

 

Amazing,

 

Everybody Picks Tai Shan, Not me I love the goddamn song

 

I get it though, Kind of fruity

 

Superconductor would be on my favorites list

Including you and me, 4 out of 9 in this thread did NOT pick Tai Shan.

 

Spindrift is probably my #6 pick. I’d listen to Tai Shan half a dozen times before Spindrift once. No small feat!

 

:LOL:
