That One Guy Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Easily Hemispheres. The best example of Rush at their height of musicianship. In my humble internet opinion of course. But I aaam right.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IChoseFreeWill Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Xanadu. Which is one of my top 5 Rush songs anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeddyLeeRoth Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Its a shame La Villa Strangiato & Natural Science fall short of the qualification for this poll. But here's how I rank these epics: 1. 2112 2. Hemispheres 3. Cygnus X-1 4. Xanadu 5. The Camera Eye 6. The Necromancer 7. The Fountain Of Lamneth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DistantEarlyRushFan Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 I think I might have over-listened to Xanadu , which is why I didn't vote for it. Hemispheres, while superior in musicianship to 2112, doesn't connect with me as much as 2112, which I voted for. There is something about the "I wish that it would come to pass/Not fade like all my dreams" and the "Just think of what my life might be/In a world like I have seen/I don't think I can carry on/Carry on this cold and empty life " parts that choke me up every time and make me shed a tear. It connects with me deeply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
