What is the best Rush song ever?

[ArrowSnake]

 

Subdivisions has always been my favorite... But The Way The Wind Blows is becoming a close second...man, that's a great Rush song!

 

[bucky01403]

Hemispheres

[theanalogkid]

I really like my namesake, The Analog Kid because it seems to define me pretty well.

 

But I also like Open Secrets off of HYF.

[Jaye]

I have quite a few favourites, but the only one of my faves that hasn't been voted for yet is Between Sun and Moon, ( ) so that one gets my vote

[sanzo]

Xnanadu best ever song...close thread

[aslavetothedriveofobsession]

Hemispheres

 

 

hon. mention:

 

The Way The Wind Blows

Natural Science

Mission

Between The Wheels

 

[RalphyS]

My vote went to "Manhattan project", great lyrics, great music, my introduction to Rush, I became a fan in the 80's and still most love their music from that era and the early 90's.

[J0N]

Has to be 2112 - cant be beat

[PloKoon13]

Has to be Subdivisions...

 

"Conform or be CAST OUT!"

[The Other,Other One]

Can't,shan't.

[Del_Duio]

Picking one is impossible, but Subdivisions always grabbed me right away.

[Skydivingninja]

Xanadu, with Subdivions second.

[nobodys hero]

Tears

[Verena]

[rushbass]

Hemispheres... with 2112, and the Necromancer a close second...

[TheSpiritofCygnusSawyer]

Had to go with Red Barchetta.

[The Dali]

That is the mother of all polls. The favored songs are all pretty predictable... most are from 1977- 84.

 

I picked Cygnus Book II. The song(s) that made me a Rush fan.

[wots...uh the deal]

had to go with Hemipsheres, that song has everything in it...

 

[Show Don't Tell]

Okay, I'll say it a tie between:

 

Marathon

Grand Designs

Vital Signs

Natural Science

Mission

The Pass

Limelight

A Farewell To Kings

Xanadu

2112

Distant Early Warning

Afterimage

Between The Wheels

La Villa Strangiato

Subdivisions

Armor & Sword

Earthshine

 

Sorry, I just can't narrow it down any further.

[Chocojoe]

I picked Freewill.

[missionman]

I picked xanadu....but how the hell can one pick a favorite RUSH SONG????? That is imposible!!!

[missionman]

All and all I choose not to decide!!!

[xx2112xx]

Natural Science.

 

So epic.

 

[The Owl]

I went Natural Science as well. But we are looking at BESTs here, not FAVIORATEs.

 

If we were voting on faviorates I would go with A farewell to kings.

[the Maple]

Animate!

 

That is one song I could never get tired of, no matter how many times I listen to it. Yet I could say that of practically every other Rush song!
