bigyellowdog Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 It is really hard to pick a favorite here. But I am going to go with Circumstances. Ask me this question tomorrow and I may have a differnt answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spindrifting Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 LaVilla I thought it was great they pulled Circumstances out of the "vault" for the new tour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willow Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 Very tough to pick between my choice of La Villa Strangiato and the magnificent The Trees Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mystic Slipperman Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 Nearly impossible to choose between Book II and La Villa. In the end (pun intended) I went with Strangiato! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dom_2112 Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 With a gun to my head, La Villa. The first song i listened to off their first 4 albums. Total genius. Cygnus (2) a close second Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HisCounterpart Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 I'm in the minority with Circumstances. The way Ged's voice soars up in the chorus. So high, so effortless. Takes you to another dimension. I can feel it in my gut quite literally when he is up there... what a voice! And one of my fav basslines too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogwash Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 I voted for La Villa, Rush's best instrumental IMO (YYZ is close). There really isn't a weak song on this album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnalogKid15 Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 's greatest song ever La Villa Strangiato Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steevo Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 A very tough call on a near perfect album, but in the end La Villa wins it as its my fave instrumental from Rush. Flawless perfection that cannot be topped by ANYONE!!! Yes they own, end of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmotionDetector Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 LA VILLA STRANGIATO 1) The world's best instrumental. 2) My all-time favourite guitar solo. 3) Possibly my favourite Rush song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CygnusX-1Bk2 Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 Even they think Hemispheres is their most ambitious and complex piece of work. Too bad they didn't consider the key when they wrote it. When Geddy went to record the vocals he hadn't realized it would have to be so high, even for him. This is the main reason they stopped doing it. If you listen to bootlegs from the tour you can hear him struggling to sing it even back then. Permanent Waves marked a clear change of approach vocally as a result. Regardless of that Hemispheres is by far their most interesting work. It is their pre Tom Sawyer masterpiece. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goose Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 QUOTE (dom_2112 @ Dec 12 2008, 11:30 AM) With a gun to my head, La Villa. The first song i listened to off their first 4 albums. Total genius. Cygnus (2) a close second It's their sixth album...seventh if you count the live All the World's a Stage. But you're right. La Villa kicks butt!
