Remember when you were a kid and you would walk around singing to yourself? That was better than the chorus to this one. Know what else is better? Friday. I think that you are right. The first time I heard this I thought it was horrid. I still think the most offensive thing they ever did was the Xanadu (abbreviated)>Superconductor segue from the RTB tour. Superconductor is definitely in the top 5 worst Rush chorus' ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrandDesigner Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 I love the song, but the more I think about it, the more I feel that Cinderella Man's chorus melody is pretty cheesy. The song is killer though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually enjoy Superconductor, but I still cannot believe that they actually meshed it, of all songs, with possibly the best song they've ever written in Xanadu. It baffles my mind...but I never actually got to see that happen live. Haha... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StellarJetman Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 I don't get why everyone hates "Superconductor". The only bad thing about it that I can think of is the "superconductor, superconductor" chanting during the chorus (the reason that the chorus is in this thread in the first place?); the rest is perfectly fine as far as I can tell.

Silas Lang Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 I can't believe the amount of dislike for the Caravan chorus. It's not as if the one line is particularly bad. Simply because it's repeated? I don't hear Beatles fans complain about I Want You, Why Don't We Do It In The Road or Hey Jude. What about Whole Lotta Love?

hughes&kettner Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 QUOTE (Tommy Sawyer @ Apr 16 2011, 08:18 AM) Wow, I say I don't like Limelight and I get called an idiot by like ten people. Sheesh... As I said, I LOVE the ENTIRE song lyrically. But it's just like I'm totally rocking out to the riff and verses and then I get a little bored with the chorus. Same goes for Entre Nous. part of the beauty of the limelight chorus is what it leads into; it sets up "those who wish to be-ee" perfectly.

The K Man Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 "Time and Motion" by far is the worst. It just sounds ugly, and that chorus is a big reason why that is one of the very few Rush songs that I actively dislike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost every chorus on that album sucks, and whats amazing is they said that was one of their focuses, making sure each song had a strong chorus. Wow.
