I guess it is all subjective, but everyone is reading this as "Their favorite song" , rather than "Best song"...I am guilty of this too for other albums. But....2112 is by far the best song, which I voted for. My favorite song right now is Tears. It was, and is an unlikely Rush song. It is quieter than most..relationship oriented..and it is a very lovely song...structured quite nicely.

I agree Faultline. Tears is an excellent song, one I have to be inthe right mood for. 2112 is of course an icon for RUsh fans though and also a great song.

I agree smile.gif While 2112 has always been my fav off this album, I've always loved Tears just as much (and so it makes it very hard to vote)...one of the first Rush songs I learned how to play on my guitar actually smile.gif

I know "2112" is the best song on this LP, but I voted for "Tears", because it is the only time Geddy played a Mellotron. I wish he used it more, if only for the next 2 LPs, "AFTK" and "Hemispheres". So epic.

AND Tears...sorry, I couldn't decide which I liked better wink.gif Tears is the first "mellow" Rush tune I ever remember hearing, and it has stayed with me ALL these years later. A True CLASSIC!

Even though the title cut is a classic, the acoustic guitar intro to Lessons just grabs me. AlexFinal.gif

2112 for me. Like Relaxed_ Jack also the first vinyl I ever owned and one of my most prized possessions.

This may shock some of you who know me ... then again ... probably not as I can't not be very unpredictable unlike most no one else ...

 

But I voted for tears .... RUSHs smooth jam. A quiet storm.

 

Something for Nothing is a close second. I agree with Captain Jack that it is the most conservative song ... It is Indica's favorite for sure.

2112.

 

I remember, when I got this album in 1990, I listened to this song 4 or 5 times a day over several weeks. I gave side B not very much attention that times. This has changed in the meantime of course, but the title song is still something special for me.
