1-0-0-1-0-0-1 Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 A few here were commenting on the vocal melodies in "Caravan," saying they weren't catchy or whatever. That might be true for much of the song, but that "I can't stop thinking big" section is gorgeously melodic and it complements the heaviness of the rest of the song very nicely.

Ted Barchetta Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 I like Caravan's lyrics and the bass tone Ged's got. And. OH MY. A GUITAR SOLO!  BU2B is Great and Super Heavy. KEYBOARDS! :DDDD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1-0-0-1-0-0-1 Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 QUOTE (theredtamasrule @ Jun 1 2010, 12:08 AM) Listening to Caravan again: it's like hearing Freewill for the first time, all chills, smiles and just thinking, "for f*cks sake this could the best thing they've ever done." all I know is that Caravan is now a song I'll never tire of hearing, like TS or Kid Gloves or La Villa. Clearly, this is Old Rush meets New Rush, combining the best parts of both. Which is what many of us have been wanting for a while now. The boys are PLAYING on these songs.

In A Tidewater Surge Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 QUOTE (Presto-digitation @ May 31 2010, 08:24 PM) QUOTE (mortkort @ May 31 2010, 10:22 PM) thanks to Presto-digitation i was able to get the songs today! thanks bud i think they are great, Caravan rocks! going to put them on the mp3 player and listen to them at work You're welcome.

That might be true for much of the song, but that "I can't stop thinking big" section is gorgeously melodic and it complements the heaviness of the rest of the song very nicely. without a doubt. i'm really digging the tempo dives (best dive @ 4:00) then the deflating fall back into the "i cant stop thinking big"'s i make the mistake quite often of reading the song lyrics AS i hear the song for the first time and that just seems to ruin the exploration of the music for me....so this time around i said NO to that little bitch of a PDF booklet until i had finished and cleaned myself up thats right.

danielmclark Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 Brilliant, with a slight edge going to BU2B, I think. Both are instant Rush classics, IMO. I'm making "In a world where I feel so small, I can't stop thinking big" my new motto. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peoplecanteatmachinefood Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 Caravan off, Pants On The Ground on.  I should go to bed. Maybe I'll be less cranky and hateful at 1 PM EST when I will probably wake up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New World Kid Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 Caravan: Awesome. No Complaints. Love the instrumental section. Reminds me of the early days with the "kay, we're gonna just jam for a second, hold on" type attitude. I bet the haters new favorite thing to complain about is the repetition of "I can't stop thinking big" much the same way the holding of single syllable words was complained about ont he last one. BU2B: Lyrics are meh to me. Song is great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
