I too prefer Clockwork Angels to Moving Pictures. I've just never been a big fan of Moving Pictures, especially because for the most part I find the studio versions of the songs on it to be a bit sterile. I agreed very much with the reviewer who described "Red Barchetta" as being "a song about excitement rather than an exciting song." I only learnt proper appreciation for Moving Pictures through live recordings, and even so, there are only three tracks on it that I rate above 7.

Gedneil Alpeart Posted July 24, 2012 Author Share Posted July 24, 2012 QUOTE (rushgoober @ Jul 24 2012, 10:53 AM) QUOTE (An Enemy Without @ Jul 24 2012, 08:37 AM) The story doesn't really interest me compared to other great concept albums. Context didn't really do much. I think it has something with not being able to understand Geddy without reading the lyrics. That doesn't make any sense to me with this song in particular. I remember when the song was released prior to the album and we were able to decipher almost all of the lyrics pretty quickly. Other songs on the album are harder to get without the liner notes... but that's often been the case with Rush for a long time. Exactly Goober. The lyrics to this song are quite comprehensible without reading them no doubt. Complaining about understanding Geddy in parts on CA is nothing new. There are quite a few classic Rush songs where it's hard to understand Geddy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But even if you get the lyrics to HF, it doesn't really matter for context if you don't understand the context. What's there not to understand?

I would say you are hearing impaired but won't because that is a subjective opinion. This being said, I have listened to S&A a lot more than MP for quite sometime now. The two albums don't even compare because S&A was crafted with a different mindset. It is Alex' album more than anyone's and it shows, IMO. MP was more band related and Rush was riding high in new found post-PeW popularity. Edited July 24, 2012 by Gompers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
