The Mighty Dudad Posted September 12, 2010 Share Posted September 12, 2010 Rush: Need Some Love Fly By Night: Rivendell (if this was the first Rush song I ever heard, I would never have listened to another one...absolutely horrendous) Caress of Steel: I Think I'm Going Bald (fun, silly song, but to me clearly trails the rest of this album) 2112: Lessons (if for no other reason than I looked at the track list and couldn't for the life of me recall how this song goes) A Farewell to Kings: Cinderalla Man (nice song, but falls justa bit behind Madrigal for me) Hemispheres: Circumstances (All four songs are winners, but if I had to pick one to be 4th, this would be it) Permanent Waves: Different Strings (a cut below the rest) Moving Pictures: Vital Signs (but still in the top 50% of their portfolio) Signals: Chemistry (never got into this song...ever) Grace Under Pressure: Red Lenses (but i vaguely recall it being really well done in concert) Power Windows: Emotion Detector (or "Lack Of Emotion Detector", to be precise) Hold Your Fire: Tai Shan (I kind of sort of like this song, a little, but for me it marks the beginning of the "lets add extra songs that aren't really good because a CD can hold more music than a record" phase. Ironically, it's usually the second to last song during this phase that suffers the most) Presto: Hand Over Fist (another victim of the "second to last song" enigma) Roll the Bones: Neurotica (yet another victim of the "second to last song" enigma) Counterparts: The Speed of Love (even though they started making full length CDs without too much filler with Counterparts, this song ranks very very high on my least favorite list) Test for Echo: Virtuality (Neil at his pedantic worst with lyrics, plodding music. The jarring transition from Dog Years to Virtuality is hard on my ears) Vapor Trails: The Stars Look Down (the first song from this CD that I regularly started to skip over) Snakes & Arrows: Good News First (just never got this song) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rushchick10 Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 Just about every song on the first album (it's WAY easier to list my favorites ) Fly By Night I Think I'm Going Bald Lessons Cinderella Man The Trees (we're talking LEAST favorite, and it was tough but I had to pick that one because I really love that whole album!) Jacob's Ladder (again, tough call!)

friendlyvoice Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 1st album: In The Mood Fly By Night: Rivendell Caress of Steel: Fountain of Lamneth 2112: Tears A Farewell to Kings: Madrigal Hemispheres: There's only 4 and I really don't dislike any of them...have to pass on this one. Permanent Waves: There are no songs I dislike on this album (or am even remotely tired of) Moving Pictures: Witch Hunt Signals: New World Man Grace Under Pressure: Red Sector A Power Windows: Very tough call...Territories, I suppose Hold Your Fire: Tai Shan, what else? Presto: Out of a not-so-good lot, probably Anagram (for Mongo) Roll The Bones: Lot of weak ones here, too...You Bet Your Life Counterparts: Hard to choose between Double Agent & The Speed of Love...so we'll call it a tie Test for Echo: Again, tough to choose between Dog Years & Totem. Going with Dog Years, by a whisker. (Geddit? Dog Years, by a whisker?) Vapor Trails: How It Is Snakes & Arrows: Faithless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pause Rewind Replay Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 In the case of Hemi, MP, Signals, PoW, and Presto it's "least favorite".

StuffWithoutStyle Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 it pains me to stain some of these songs with a "least favorite" label. RUSH: Take a friend FBN: rivendell CoS: I think i'm going bald 2112: twilight zone AFTK: madrigal Hemispheres: the trees (ugh i hate to do that to the trees) PeW: Different strings (again, ugh...) MP: Limelight (just because i've heard it so many times on the radio) Signals: Countdown P/G: Afterimage (please don't kill me) PoW: mystic rhythms HYF: Tai Shan Presto: Available Light RTB: Heresy Counterparts: Speed of Love TFE: Resist VT: How it is S&A: Spindrift Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ak2112 Posted September 18, 2010 Share Posted September 18, 2010 My god I cant imagine people are putting Losing It down as the worst song on Signals. Neils greatest lyrics IMO and the music on the outro kicks ass. Then again, it my favorite Rush song so I recognize my own bias. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
