BenjaminW Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 Well, it's my favorite Rush album against my 3rd favorite. Second one being 2112. I'm pretty sure these are going to be all ties.

Alien Girl Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 Permanent Waves wins by virtue of having Natural Science alone. What? Ok, fine, if you don't want my completely unbiased opinion. Fine, I'll go the long way around. :eyeroll: The Spirit of RadioFreewillJacob's LadderLimelightThe Camera EyeNatural Science Special mention, though does go to Vital Signs, because it's in my top 6. But since Natural Science is #1well... So fine. What have we learned here? Told ya so...could've just bi-passed this futility completely and gone with my opening sentence.

HemiBeers Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 TSORFreewillJLLimelight ....face it Entre Nous is a filler track without much going on (no solo)Different Strings...TCE is much too long and boring AFNS....I like Witch Hunt, but not Vital Signs (The Police light).

HemiBeers Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 hey TK have we done a poll of 'best opening rush song (not including live albums)?' seems like we covered everything else under the sun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diatribein Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 From the other thread. I prefer to have Natural Science appear twice (it is the length of two songs anyway) than double up on Witch Hunt & Vital Signs. Along with Tom Sawyer, Vital Signs is my favourite track on Moving Pictures. Witch Hunt is middle of the road for me, so I rather not pair them. If I was forced to, I guess the pair would beat Natural Science for me. Either way, it is an easy win for Permanent Waves.

Entre_Perpetuo Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 TSOR, but with the utmost respect to TSRed Barchetta... barelyYYZ, splitting hairs, this one has more hooksLimelight, by a mildly larger margin than the previous photo finishesDifferent Strings, in a surprise turn on events, my least favorite track on PeW edges out my second least favorite on MPNatural Science > Vital Signs > Witch Hunt, because MP goes out with a couple light experiments and PeW pulls zero punches.

Lucas Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 - Spirit- Freewill- Jacob's Ladder- Limelight- Different Strings- Natural Science Witch Hunt and Vital Signs have a near impossible task ... WH and VS are my two favorites from Moving Pictures, but as good as they are, and as much I a really love Vital Signs, they're not topping Natural Science Jacob's Ladder is at the top of this list of songs in my book Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mosher Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 1) The Spirit of Radio vs Tom Sawyer?2) Freewill vs Red Barchetta?3) Jacob's Ladder vs YYZ?4) Entre Nous vs Limelight?5) Different Strings vs The Camera Eye?6) Natural Science vs Witch Hunt + Vital Signs? (sorry, but it has to be one versus two in this case) It should be said that Natural Science would have a shot against Moving Pictures as a whole, but by this criteria it looks like a MP win.It isn't. Natural Science and Freewill are killers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
