Neil's Strongest Album Lyrically

[savagegrace26]

I'm going for Presto. The lyrical imagery is magical.

 

Moving Pictures, Permanent Waves, Signals, and Power Windows are definitely strong contenders though.

[USB Connector]

Tough choice... I'm voting Hemispheres because the title track is such a great metaphor once you start analysing it. The same can be said about the Trees, but to a much lesser extent.

[IChoseFreeWill]

Either Permanent Waves or Presto.

Everything from AFtK to S&A are top contender in my opinion, with the exception of CP and TfE.

The title track is an obvious metaphor.

Don't forget the power packed into Circumstances, and the masterpiece of all lyrics, La Villa Strangiato

[Snyder80]

I voted MP. It was extremely tough to pick just one but Red Barchetta, Vital Signs and Witch Craft are three of his lyrical masterpieces.

What I meant by "once you start analysing it" is how the lyrics become a part of the music. Everything in the lyrics are reinforced by the instruments. I find it hard to look at some songs solely in terms of lyrics. It's like reading a comic book where you see a girl crying and saying "I'm happy for you". You can't always paint a clear picture with words alone.

Power Windows hands down for me.

[StellarJetman]

It was either Moving Pictures or Presto, and Moving Pictures already had the advantage. In hindsight, though, I probably should have voted for Permanent Waves instead.

[laughedatbytime]

There are a lot of great choices, but I had to go with Permanent Waves on the strength of Entre Nous and Natural Science.

[skalamander2112]

Presto

[micgtr71]

I thought that he really came into his own on Grace. Not as strong musically as the others, but I really like it lyrically.

[J2112YYZ]

There's a lot of good picks for this one. I might have to think about it this for a bit

[Cosy Toes]

Eeny, Meenie, minie, mo...

 

Or for the PC amongst us: Ip, Dip, Dog, Shit...

 

Yer pays yer money, yer takes yer choice.

Permanent Waves

[LeaveMyThingAlone]

1. Counterparts

2. Moving Pictures

3. Presto

 

 

[Mr. Krinkle]

Power Windows

[Undemanding Contact]

For me, Power Windows. But it edges in only just ahead of many of the others.
