I totally agree with you on that...I dont hate any of the albums..I just like some more then others..but I thought Roll The Bones was amazazing!

Netboy Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 I like the RTB album. It seemed like it was commercially successful. The funny thing is many friends I know actually love the song "Roll the Bones" when they first here it. I think it's what strikes you at the time. Many of them have never heard rush before.

Huck Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 Personally I like RTB as an album and as a song. The song is funky and has a rap in it which I guess doesn't wash too well with some peeps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess to each their own. But thats why is great.. They experiment and give you a shmorgasborg of new cool sounds and rhythm without dramatically altering their rock core.

GeddyRulz Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 The "rap" section doesn't bother me much, but it would've been better if they'd stayed with their original idea, and had John Cleese do it! But please kill the song from the setlist; I don't need to hear the song or see that "rapping skeleton" video again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the tune and the album, but I'd drop it because I think they need a setlist shake-up and with all the material they have to draw upon that shouldn't be too hard...

Grace2Grace Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 From what I gathered at sites like Powerwindows, he was someone like richard cheese (comidian) who would have made a mockery of rap. That would have looked to me the band going agiasnt what already seemed likie a trial of tolerence and openiess, thatthey showed iwth their art.

Lady April Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 I also have my opinions of certain tracks on certain albums most of them good. However, I also keep in mind that they have changed with times and moved forward with their musical desire and intentions to try to top themselves every show and every album. In that respect, I respect their musicianship and whatever they do. Be free to have opinions! YAY OPINIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Cleese is featured in both my avatar and my sig. He's a brit comedian/writer who was one of the famed "Monty Python" troop, and also many things since. If you have a chance, take a look at some of that stuff its pretty funny. I just noticed you were born when I was finishing college. So Im going to weep by myself in the corner...
