My Rush Song's List From 1-165

[Nova Carmina]

The Fear Trilogy Proper -- I consider "Freeze" to be apocryphal -- is awesome lyrically, musically, thematically, politically, morally, environmentally, historically, and justly. The low 60s still seems to undersell them, but since you're obviously some sort of provocateur, keep poking. 

[Mosher]

   Grouping these for songs makes sense thematically, but it does a disservice to 3 great songs by attaching the anchor of Freeze to them.

 

I could never do that 

 

I love a lot of difficult, inaccessible, complicated music. I admire the attempt with Freeze. I do not like Freeze.

 

The other three, separate or grouped, should all be much higher.

 

Second Nature it is!!!

For me, the Weapon is the dog of the three.  I love Freeze's lyrics, and the pounding rhythm.  Weapon, on the other hand, is dull to my ears and the lyrics far too on-the-nose.

[goose]

Entre Nous ahead of Red Barchetta is interesting.  I don't imagine many people have that ranking.

[Mosher]

I have been commenting on Derek's unusually low raking for some stellar songs whilst leaving songs like Second Nature alone. 

And I stand by that.

But I, too, have my own strange view of the Rush catalog. 

For me, Red Barchetta is the weakest song on Moving Pictures and only of middling quality. I actually have over 100 songs ahead of it. 

So I cannot complain about this. I am fine with all of these last three.

I would put Entre Nous above Red Barchetta... OMG I'm so quirky and different! 

 

 

[Derek19]

With "La Villa Strangiato (An Exercise In Self-Indulgence)", and "Circumstances" tied from "Hemispheres", they are after each other.  For instrumentals, "La Villa Strangiato (An Exercise In Self-Indulgence)", and "Yyz" are about even.  Mosher, on your list, you have "La Villa Strangiato (An Exercise In Self-Indulgence)" at #10, and "Yyz" at #25.  I wouldn't say I have any strange view of Rush's studio music catalog.  I haven't been, and I'm not doing any poking.

Two perfect instrumentals. I like La Villa more, it's so lyrical for having no lyrics. 

 

I don't remember exactly where I had them, but I'm guessing La Villa was a lot higher and YYZ lower. 

 

They may be perfect instrumentals, but they're still instrumentals. Perfect songs with lyrics will always be higher. Imperfect but very good songs with lyrics will be, too.

"Circumstances" is a great and under-rated song, but "Red Barchetta" is over-rated, so this ranking feels okay for it, but "La Villa" and "YYZ" in the mid-50s? This is fascinating.

Since I take, and make time, and the effort to do my own list, and put likes on posts I like, and respect, how about the same thing on my lists, who likes them, too.  I don't want to have the feeling that I'm wasting my time.  I would appreciate it.  Thank you, very much.  For doing it, you are welcome, including to you, Yyz305.

A Farewell to Kings, song #1/6, "A Farewell to Kings (1977)"

Fly By Night, song #5/8, "Fly By Night (1975)"

 

Two great songs, and I'm fine with the rankings on both here. Neither are top 20, but both are always a welcome listen.

As to the likes, rest assured that anyone still commenting is reading and enjoying, so that's all the proof that's really necessary. 

 

I like these lists, and I'd love to see more people doing them. 

Not everyone is into lists. 

 

My long term hope is that there will be enough lists to do a grand synthesis of the various lists into a 'group average'.

Please keep it up!

[goose]

A Farewell to Kings over LA Villa?  I'd have at least 130 places apart, with LaVilla easily top 10 and Farewell way down the list.  Fly By Night is radio gold and deserves a spot in the top 40, I think. YYZ as well. They're overplayed for a reason 

[Derek19]

The necessary of proof people commenting by reading, and enjoying the lists without likes is how you want to see, and believe that, Mosher.  For anymore Rush songs, I'm not moving them around to change some other positions of songs just for the convenience of people.

Lists aren't things that people necessarily 'like' as such. They may be reading and enjoying, as I do. People may read these posts at a future time  if they aren't getting to them now. I don't think you're wasting your time at all - some of us are thoroughly enjoying noting where you are ranking songs...Thanks for doing this.

Secret Touch is a bottom 25 song for me. I just don't like the vocal approach on so many Vapor and Snake songs. Some I always liked, several I've grown to appreciate, but not Secret Touch, at least not yet.

 

I'm looking forward to the top 50, just around the corner!

Secret Touch is a bottom 25 song for me. I just don't like the vocal approach on so many Vapor and Snake songs. Some I always liked, several I've grown to appreciate, but not Secret Touch, at least not yet.

 

I'm looking forward to the top 50, just around the corner!

You feel about VT the way I feel about the Kings album.  Most of that record just annoys me.  I really like Secret Touch and would have it around where Derek has it, maybe even higher.  Sweet Miracle is another track I'd have high on the list.

[goose]

Not a fan of Wreckers at all.  

 

My top Clockwork tracks are the title track, Anarchist, Carnies and BU2B

[Mosher]

I like the Wreckers, I love that whole album. 

 

But I agree with Goose's favorites, especially Carnies and the Anarchist. Top 20 songs for me

[Nova Carmina]

I like Vapor Trails just fine, I but think Derek likes it much better than me!

Grand Designs was at one time my favorite off PoW. It's still high up, but your ranking does it justice. Afterimage is a song that took awhile to hit me right, but I really like it a lot now. So I'm happy with these ratings. 

[goose]

Afterimage is one of the top tracks off tge band's best synth era album.  I might have it higher.  Grand Designs is in my top 5 from PW, but it's sound feels dated to me, and not in a  good way. Probably much lower in my ranking

I think that's why GD has dropped for me over the years. As a teen I was really into the bells and whistles of synth flairs that were all over the place, at least when used well. 

Rush used them very well. 

But they age. After a while instead of adding that cool bit of surprise to the song, they increasingly take me out of the song. 

Like when a too-well known celebrity has a cameo in a tv show that requires immersion, or when you can see the mic boom above the actor. It takes you out of the immersion.

Grand Designs is still great, but Alex was right about needing to get those guitars back in front.
