The Notorious B.S.G. Posted August 24, 2004 Share Posted August 24, 2004 No doubt in my mind about this one: XANADUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!! The section at the beginning when Alex stops playing around and decides to let fly with the riffs is one of my favorite moments in all of their recorded work. Wowzer!

Jack Aubrey Posted August 24, 2004 Share Posted August 24, 2004 'A Farewell To Kings'. So very relevant and timeless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CygnusX-1Bk2 Posted August 24, 2004 Share Posted August 24, 2004 Cinderalla Man. Geddy wrote the lyrics after watching Mr. Deeds Goes To Town directed by Frank Capra, starring Gary Cooper. Much better than the Adam Sandler version. I love the lyrics, but really the drums and guitar solo are cool. Title track is number 2 for me.

pixey Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 This is my favorite Rush album. It also has my favorite song on it, Cygnus! This whole album for me just does it. From the popular song Closer To The Heart to Madrigal, it just has it all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madra sneachta Posted August 26, 2004 Share Posted August 26, 2004 Gotta be Xanadu - My 10 year old son also says it's his favourite song of all time because of the guitar just after "frozen in an everlasting view" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HAZMAT001 Posted August 29, 2004 Share Posted August 29, 2004 By far and of course it is none other than XANADU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kamrahai Posted September 6, 2004 Share Posted September 6, 2004 after staring at the list for 5 minutes I gave up. AFTK, Xanadu and Cygnus are all faves of mine (maybe because its the first tour I saw) sorry...no vote from me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bardan Posted September 6, 2004 Share Posted September 6, 2004 Xanadu, with AFTK coming in second. This is their second best album after Hemispheres! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoda Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 my favorite rush song ever was by far CYGNUS X-1 book one from a farewell to kings and book 2 from hemispere they had a great ideal to release it on two separate albums only rush could come up with that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faultline Posted September 20, 2004 Share Posted September 20, 2004 QUOTE (bardan @ Sep 6 2004, 03:19 AM) Xanadu, with AFTK coming in second. This is their second best album after Hemispheres! I concur, and mostly for sentimental reason... I just love the words to aftk., Xanadu is one of the most magical Rush songs ever, and maybe is the best on this LP. But I voted for cygnus x-1...It had me the most excited then when it came out, and ...well , now too.!!..."All who dare to cross her course!!!!!."....Who can tell me a better "Geddy whaling" than that!!??

Megadon Posted October 15, 2004 Share Posted October 15, 2004 I love A Farewll To Kings. Definitely one of the best sounding productions on a Rush album (and that is saying a lot). Anyway, my favorite here would be Xanadu. An epic classic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
