ReRushed Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 "Cygnus X-1 Book II: Hemispheres" all the way, baby, all the way! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theredtamasrule Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 2112 is prolly the most popular but Cygnus X-1: Book II, Hemispheres is a total kick ass song on a total kick ass album! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cygnus-1001001 Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 Toughy between FOL and Hemispheres I will go with hemispheres cause its the best thing ever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yaoi_myantidrug Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 FOL. No one at the Bridge is the only song that can almost make me cry. It does bring about another interesting reaction tho... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FezPaul Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 2112 It's the album that really got me into RUSH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steevo Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 Eeeks, supermegatight between 2112 and Hemi...2112 by a smidgen of nose...just Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jnoble Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 I have a couple bootlegs from the Hemispheres tour, and my favorite part is when they play Cygnus X-1 into Hemispheres, thus playing out the whole storyline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lerxt1990 Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 Hemi. 2112 is wonderful and has a really great ending.. but Hemispheres, overall, really captures the Rush prog-gy sound. Love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfratt Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 I choose not to decide. (but I still have made a choice, so its got to be Hemispheres) 2112 is the song that got me into music, and more specifically into Rush, but I've listened to it so many times that it has lost most of that jaw-to-the-floor power it used to have on me. I love the overall feel of Hemispheres, and the bass line is one bad ass mofo. Neat story/concept to it too. Fountain of Lamneth is and will always be among my favorites, but its in over its head with the previous two epics IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReRushed Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 Hemispheres feels more like a complete song to me, whereas The Fountain of Lamneth and 2112 both feel like a bunch of songs threaded together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PanaceaFish Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 Ach, I love all three so it's hard to choose.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormtron Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 The Fountain. I agree that it's not as cohesive of an epic as the others, but I just can't vote against it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xanadu93 Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 Here's my order: 1. Hemispheres (kicks ass live) 2. The Fountain Of Lamneth (yet to hear it live, even on a boot) 3. 2112 (overplayed live ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trenken Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 Voted 2112. I like it because the sections are all different. Almost like 5 different songs in 1, where in Hemispheres much of it is repeated, which although I think works fine for the song, just isnt as exciting to me.

Verena Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 I chose Hemispheres but I love all the three songs. To me: Hemispheres first, 2112 second, The Fountain of Lamneth third. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gleamingalloyaircar81 Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 Not even a question for me. 2112 all the way. FOL is great too but i dont like Hemispheres that much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeddysMullet Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 Hemispheres. The 2112 Overture/Temples Of Syrinx section beats any individual part of Hemispheres for me, but I prefer Hemispheres overall because it means more to me lyrically and has a happier ending.
