QUOTE (Presto-digitation @ Jun 5 2012, 09:33 PM) For now I'm still going with BU2B.  I think the song is actually better now and I loved it before.  I think the way the song crashes in as the new intro fades out just adds to the intensity.  I'm not sure how this already great song got better, but it did.... My thoughts exactly! I loved BU2B already, but the album version is KILLER!! I just LOVE this tune, and yes, the new version is even more powerful.

Pretty amazing! Every song has been voted as a favorite!

[lifeson90]

bu2b and the garden for me but voted the garden as it's new and just mindblowingly good and emotional... the great thing is though, every single track reaches a very high standard on this album, as opposed to s&a which dropped the ball just a few too many times for me

 

edit: seven cities of gold with it's lovely zeppelin vibe gettin a lot of play from me too oh yess

Seven Cities, although The Wreckers, The Anarchist, Clockwork Angels, The Garden, Headlong Flight, Caravan, and Halo Effect are all kick-butt songs!

[briere2112]

Reviving thread since I just listened last night (yes i was one of the holdouts who avoided the leaks).

 

Favorite so far is The Wreckers. Other considerations were Caravan, Clockwork Angels, Headlong Flight, and The Garden.

[Blue2112]

Clockwork Angels by a nose in front of the Garden. I give the nod to CA due to its classic Rush stylings. I think that both CA and The Garden deserve inclusion on any top 10 all time list. Time will tell if they deserve top 5. Both are incredible Rush songs.

[GeddyRulz]

After at least six FULL listens to the album, plus several pick-and-choose listens to various songs, my current front-runner is an odd one: "Wish Them Well."

 

I'm serious. I know it's making a lot of people's "bottom of the pile" lists, but listening yesterday the vocal melody grabbed me during "Thank your stars you're not that way, turn your back and walk away..."

 

Now I want to sing it all the time.

[GeddyLeeFender]

Carnies, Alex's solo and Geddy singing over is simply amazing. I love the chorus, and how Geddy sings the verse "sometimes the angels punish us by answering our prayers"....too good!!

[Rushman14]

I'm pretty sure the title track will always be my favorite. Edited June 13, 2012 by Rushman14

[Rush Cocky]

I'm on listen #5 now, and I honestly cannot pick one.

 

They all work well together.

 

My favorite is likely to change in 5 minutes, but at this moment in time I'll say "The Anarchist"

[robertjames1971]

I can't get over how good The Wreckers is. I can't get over how much I love listening to it. My opinion might change over time, but for right now that's my winner. I hope they release it as a single.

Seven Cities Of MOTHERF*CKING Gold!!! I haven't air drummed this hard since Tool released 10,000 Days!

BU2B after the refresh is sounding really good, and currently gets my vote. Of all of the songs that were not previously released, Seven Cities sounds the best to these ears.

 

[ifloveremains]

The Wreckers, closely followed by The Garden, but the title track is really growing on me...

[Lost In Xanadu]

The Garden is my favorite, but I find the song that really sticks with me is The Wreckers. I find when I'm walking around at work, that tune is humming in my head.

[Chicken hawk]

 

To early to decide.

[Mara]

At the moment, it's kind of a tossup between the title track and The Anarchist.

[1 of the 7]

The Wreckers. That chorus just kills me. Plays over and over in my head and I have no desire for it to leave. The Garden is a close second.
