Hatchet_Ax_Saw Posted August 11, 2010 Share Posted August 11, 2010 I have gone from one fav song to another with this album. Imo this is a sleeper album. I always loved Big Money, then it was Manhattan Project, then Mystic Rhythms, but I'd still have to say that Marathon has just a great feel to it. And as one poster said, it's Geddy at his best! It's not the most meaningful (lyric-wise) but I just wanna jam to it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FoxxiStarr Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 This is getting into the era I wasn't fond of - too many damn synths I chose TBM cause it's the "rockiest" song on the album Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kugel Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 QUOTE (mong82191 @ Jul 26 2010, 11:58 AM) What no one likes Marathon or Territories here????? I love Territories and I like Marathon a great deal. I have an ever-evolving relationship with this album. Right now Grand Designs is my favorite, but it can be Big Money or Territories or Mystic Rhythms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Babycat Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 The Big Money - I loved the video that went with it - Alex's blue-tinted Signature, the monopoly board, but who was the young man @ the beginning, the one with the binoculars?

GuitarPlyr01 Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 Alot of great songs on this album. This is one of my top 3 favorite albums. Still, I have to say Marathon. (Greatest song ever???) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewWorldMan1971 Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Lots of good stuff on PW, but "The Big Money" is my fav. Lots of GREAT memories associated with that song for me too. In my view, it's very underrated. It's very upbeat and just kicks ass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nate2112 Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 QUOTE (Moonraker @ Aug 24 2004, 01:27 AM) Took awhile to warm up to it, but Mystic Rhythms is my favorite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Good,bad,andrush Posted December 4, 2010 Share Posted December 4, 2010 Simply Middletown Dreams...my band and I can relate to this. And closely after is Mystic Rhythms. Then Emotion Detector, Manhattan Project, Territories, Grand Designs, Marathon, and then The Big Money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lamelight Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 I love every song on this album but went with Emotion Detector ♥ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NobodysHeroine Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 I simply love "Mystic Rhythms." The music video for this song really fascinates me. Funny thing is, I was at the Rush: Beyond the Lighted Stage premier and saw it in the theater with my dad and my elder brother. When a closeup of Geddy was on the screen during "Mystic Rhythms," my brother laughed. I punched him in the arm. Later he told me that Geddy's mullet reminded him of someone in Robocop (which also was filmed in the 80s). I said, "I know he's weird-looking to you, but please have some respect!"

IChoseFreeWill Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 Will have to go with Marathon. And not just because they played it in Time Machine. But because the lyrics are very inspirational as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicken hawk Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 Mystic Rhythms for me too. love Neils work in that song ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
An Enemy Without Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 All of my friends who like rush think Mystic Rhythms is weird, but I like it. I had to go with Marathon though, because its so uplifting and exciting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
