GeddysMullet Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 Coming up with 10 was tough, because it seems to me that there are very few Rush songs that fail to be appreciated within the fanbase. Here in the order I was able to think of them are my favourites of the ones that either don't get talked about much or in my opinion get unjustly dissed.

The Analog Cub Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 1. Countdown - Come on, you three, sack up and play this one again. Especially with some awesome Space Shuttle footage on the giant monitors. 2. Test For Echo - I know how everyone feels about this album but I always thought the title track was god-tier. 3. Lock And Key - Great song from an album that I don't particularly care for. 4. Time And Motion - For someone like me who doesn't really care about song lyrics and mainly focuses on the notes, this song is really good. 5. Red Tide - It's just catchy. 6. Something For Nothing - Probably not "underrated" by Rush fans. But it's a song that doesn't pop up much. And I love it. 7. Double Agent - There isn't much to this song other than two parts: "where would you rather be" and the spoken part. But I think it sounds really good. 8. Cut To The Chase - The one song in Rush's never-played-live catalog that I wish wasn't in there. Ties with Stick It Out as my favorite Counterparts song, but Stick It Out isn't underrated. And Counterparts is my favorite Rush album. 9. Open Secrets - Another good song from a not so great album. I wouldn't ever wish this to be played live, because I'd be afraid with how it'd turn out. Just isn't live material IMO. 10. Virtuality - Ignore the lyrics. Listen to the riff. Honorable Mention: Armor and Sword - Favorite song from Snakes And Arrows, which is a good album. I wish people would stop hating on it, even though Clockwork Angels is indeed fantastic. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Analog Cub Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 I probably should of included Territories. It's easily my favorite track off of PW. Entre Nous also (if it's widely considered underated?)...it took on a new life with the S&A tour. I REALLY don't think Territories is underrated. I'd say everything off Power Windows has its share of merit (especially Territories and Middletown, along with the usuals Big Money, Marathon, and Mystic Rhythms) due except for Emotion Detector, which is also a good song.

hobo73 Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Well.....I will say that I am going by what is never ever played on the radio/never really brought up when people in general talk about Rush.I know some of my choices will be overrated to others, and well, when you answer this question on a board full of rabid die-hards, of course there will be disagreements. lol. Boy, this is hard.... 1. Cygnus X-1 Book One: The Voyage2. The Body Electric3. Digital Man4. The Necromancer5. A Farewell To Kings6. Different Strings7. Prime Mover8. Chain Lightning9. Animate10.

Also, I gotta add another song to my list. Secret Touch. Maybe it isn't underrated when you compare it to the rest of Vapor Trails, but on the grander scale of things, that song needs more love.

hammerofthor Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Ill go with the obvious choices. Rivendell-just take it for what is, a pretty little tune with a great mrlody. High Water- great atmospheric song that gets lumped together with another atmospheric tune that is unique and underrated. Dog Years and Virtuality- great riffs and grooves that actually sound good. Ill add Need Some Love because it kicks ass. You can tell I dont really care about the lyrics too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
