I'm in the vast minority here (I think 2112 is over-rated and over worked... really, the sound of Rush trying way too hard to make an 'epic')

 

Something For Nothing makes the cut for me (Lessons, too)

 

...maybe on the odd day the Grand Finale

 

otherwise, forgettable

2112 of course, but whats a more interesting question is whats the SECOND favorite. There Im going to say Lessons. Love Alex's acoustic guitar playing, and Geddy's singing is fantastic. Great uptempo forgotten tune.

2112 is awesome of course, but I am listening to Bangkok alot these days, I remember when I first got it. I feel ever so old, but it was really funny listening to it for the first time, it was my first Rush album and my friend was going crazy about how amazing it was and how fierce the sound was. I started laughing when I heard the guy sing, I almost pissed my pants, and I remember saying "This is amazing?" and then I put in some Yes. He dragged me to a Rush concert, and I loved them since, oh so funny.

I believe I voted "Passage To Bangkok"

Me too. Still great after all these years, and was a real hit as returned to the setlist.

"2112" was my first Rush song I listened to way back in the late 70s.

 

Blew my mind back then: still does. Such an awesome concept track, a little dated now perhaps, but still packs a punch
