2112freak Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 QUOTE (Relaxed_Jack @ Aug 24 2004, 06:37 AM) ALL of them..... I chose Countdown. Kind of gives you chills now after the latest Shuttle (Columbia)disaster. THe boys were invited to the 'Countdown' and recorded some of the Mission Control sounds. ready to get my geek on? i used to listen to Countdown as i was reading the preflight checklist in my Space Shuttle manual, pretending i was about to lift-off, usng Ruch as my soundtrack!!!! the obvious faves on this album is Subdivisions and Analog Kid, but Countdown and Losing It still haunt me to this day!!!

RSRD Posted September 8, 2010 Share Posted September 8, 2010 Subdivisions. Could easily have been Analog Kid or Chemsitry or the Weapon or ....you get the point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kugel Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 Subdivisions has to take it, but Losing It is really quite the little masterpiece. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Babycat Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 Can't choose all of them unfortunately, but I do really like Subdivisions - who directed the video to it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
subdivisions82 Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 The song that got me into Rush was Subdivisions. Being a freshman in HS it was perfect timing and described life perfectly! Subdivisions has very close ties to my heart and will be played at my funeral. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GuitarPlyr01 Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 Subdivisions. No doubt. Although I have a newfound liking for Digital Man since it was played on the S&A tours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ak2112 Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 Without a doubt, it's Losing It for me. The best lyrics Neil ever wrote with a beautiful vocal by Geddy and some great playing overall. Not only is it my fave off of the album, it's my favorite Rush song...period! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shreddy Lee Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 By far, Digital Man for me. Pure bass ecstasy. It's the only song from the album that I really love. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good,bad,andrush Posted December 4, 2010 Share Posted December 4, 2010 Losing It! (As a writer, I can somewhat relate to this). And then Subdivisions, The Analog Kid, Digital Man, The Weapon, Chemistry, Countdown, and finally New World Man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IChoseFreeWill Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 I will have to go with Subdivisions. I was that nerdy kid the song talks about. And I grew up in a society that discouraged individuality and standing out very, very, much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cygnals Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 (edited) Subdivisions. This song came out perfectly as I was just about to start my freshman year in high school. Of course, the lyrics spoke loudly to me and it helped get past the insecurities of starting anew. Even wrote the lyrics on one of my school book's cover (we had the option of covering the books, so I just wrapped it in brown paper bag) for inspiration.

NobodysHeroine Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 I have a special fondness for "Losing It." The final verses really move me every time I hear it. Geddy sings it so beautifully: Some are born to move the world, to live their fantasies But most of us just dream about the things we'd like to be Sadder still to watch it die than never to have known it For you, the blind who once could see the bell tolls for thee... Wow... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonatine Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 Lyrically I still adore "Losing It", and the electronic violin was like the icing on the cake. Having said that, I do have quite an affinity for "Subdvisions", there is something very "1984" about the tone & mood of the song, to me at least.
