Alex soars with clean, swinging riffs while Geddy plays with a rumbling bass and excellent vocals.

Holy hell, the bass on this album is uncharted. The guitar solo on this track is strong, and stands well up against the synths. Excellent synth-heavy track! Previously on my list... 101. “In The Mood”, Track 6/8 (3:36) - Entry 4/8, Rush (1974) 100. “We Hold On”, Track 13/13 (4:13) - Entry 10/13, Snakes & Arrows (2007) 99. “Cinderella Man”, Track 4/6 (4:20) - Entry 2/6, A Farewell To Kings (1977) 98. “Totem”, Track 6/11 (4:58) - Entry 9/11, Test For Echo (1996) 97. “Cut To The Chase”, Track 3/11 (4:46) - Entry 5/11, Counterparts (1993) 96. “Lock And Key”, Track 6/10 (5:09) - Entry 6/10, Hold Your Fire (1987) How is this album doing? 10. “Tai Shan”, Track 9/10 (4:17) - #165/173 9. “Second Nature”, Track 4/10 (4:36) - #134/173 8. “High Water”, Track 10/10 (5:33) - #112/173 7. “Turn The Page”, Track 8/10 (4:55) - #106/173 6. “Open Secrets”, Track 3/10 (5:38) - #102/173 5. “Lock And Key”, Track 6/10 (5:09) - #96/173 One of my least favourite songs from HYF. High Water, Turn The Page and Open Secrets are well below 100 for me. I love how we all have a different take on these songs.

It's so...uplifting. I'd have rated it maybe a little higher.... Yeah, just a feel good kind of song - the synth and Ged's voice just do it for me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_hi_water._ Posted August 15, 2023 Author Share Posted August 15, 2023 95. “The Twilight Zone”, Track 3/6 (3:18), 2112 (1976) 2112 - Entry 3 out of 6 Nothing much to say about this one, really. A groovy track where the boys pay homage to two of their favorite episodes from some show that nobody's ever heard of. Cool song.
