goose Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Over rated Tom Sawyer.Agreed. Underrated: Dog Years, the music moves along and cranks. The lyrics are fun take on subject that adult Peart is obsessed with, getting older.I enjoy it, and think the lyrics are a lot more clever than most of his stuff from that era. :cheers: 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeaveMyThingAlone Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Underrated: Double AgentWhere's the love for this one? It's very much out of Rush's wheel house. It's dark and heavy and it contains perhaps Alex's sickest riff ever and his playing on this song overall is just awesome. The speaking parts could have come off cheesy but they end up working Overrated: The Big Money or anything Power WindowsEveryone seems to love this album, but it's just not good for me. Probably too synthesizer driven in parts, too 80's sounding in parts, etc. Big Money has been played every tour it seems and I just don't think it's as great as so many fans think it is, or Rush for that matter...

_hi_water._ Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 Underrated: "Countdown" from Signals. Although "Heresy" from Roll The Bones come close.Overrated: Not choosing any hits... "Available Light" from Presto. Never got the huge praise for this song. I would also go for 'Alien Shore" from Counterparts as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think as far as Signals' singles go, ( tongue twister :P ), Countdown doesn't get nearly as much praise as Subdivisions or New World Man. Plus, I always thought the music video was awesome. Also, I nominate Mystic Rhythms for being overrated. Cut To The Chase and Marathon are underrated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weatherman Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 I agree with everything else said here (although I might put 2112 in Overrated too) That's a hard one. The first 3 movements of 2112 are soooo epic. Then it just falls on its face by the end. Attention all planets of the solar federation (eyeroll).

_hi_water._ Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 Under-rated:Available Light - quite easily one of the best songs the band has ever written/recorded and absolutely at the top of the list of Alex solos.funny because it constantly gets gushed with love on this forum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_hi_water._ Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 Overrated - Spindrift...maybe not now but TRFers loved this thing back when it was new. I thought it was one of the worst songs off one of their worst albums. Actually, I still think so.this post kinda aged like milk LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was one of the worst songs off one of their worst albums. Actually, I still think so.this post kinda aged like milk LOL How? It’s true - TRFers DID praise it back in 2007 when it was new. And I still think it’s one of their worst off one of their worst albums. The only difference now is that I’d say SnA IS my least liked Rush album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jnoble Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 I like the beginning of Spindrift and the guitar riff. But then I find myself losing interest in the song and jabbing the skip button about a minute & a half into it lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texas King Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 (edited) O: Red Barchetta or Hemispheres I consider both songs to be just good, but not among top-tier Rush songs like many fans do.
