Good,bad,andrush Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 (edited) This is obvious for me: Superconductor. A fun song, but that's all it is. Edited January 1, 2011 by Good,bad,andrush Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toymaker Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Don't know why this thread never took off - maybe something had already been done at the time. Anyway, for me it's definitely Hand Over Fist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Segue Myles Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Superconductor I really like this song! But I could happily skip this one. Presto is close to perfection. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

laughedatbytime Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Gunter Grass wrote the best book about this album. He should have also written two sequels though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We disagree about this album, but I gave you a like on this post, just for the reference. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Segue Myles Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Available Light. Ugh. Is it the vocals? A few have told me its annoying in the way he sings the title words. Plus, finally decided the moment is right: Your avatar is my favourite thing on this forum. BEAUTIFUL SHOT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HemiBeers Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 The Pass is strong because of the lyrics. Show Don't Tell could possibly be saved with proper production and some ballsy amps. Other that that the album is a throw away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disk98 Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 Anagram, by a mile. I love Presto, but man, I can't stand Anagram. It puts me to sleep. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New World Kid Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 Anagram, and it's not even close. It's maybe some of the most boring music Rush has ever made, just sounding like filler riffs. No power. And the lyrics make no sense. I get that they make an anagram, but that's only clever if your anagram means something. Presto is one of my favorite records, but this is an always-skip for me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue J Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 I agree with Disk and NWK too...I cited Superconductor, but Anagram is the only other song on the album that I don't make it through without skipping. Nine fantastic songs out of eleven, though...still a great record. I love Presto. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Segue Myles Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 Superconductor, Hand Over Fist and Anagram are the three songs that let down Presto for me. Take them away, its near faultless. But those three songs are all just...OK sounding album tracks, nothing more! I really like them, don't get me wrong, but the rest of Presto is sublime! Five of my very favourite Rush songs are on it!

That One Guy Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Anagram. Who's the 'challenged' individual that selected Available Light? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Entre_Perpetuo Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Anagram and Hand Over Fist tend to leave me hanging, the former a bit more. I actually really like Superconductor, will never understand the hatred for it, though I don't really care one way or another about that. Everything else on the album is really unique and fills a specific, albeit unusually quirky, purpose, though The Pass has never really struck me as much better than the other songs on the album, despite poignant lyrics.
