EagleMoon Posted June 18, 2015 Posted June 18, 2015 Caravan is the one that appeals to me the most. Then Headlong Flight.
Entre_Perpetuo Posted June 18, 2015 Author Posted June 18, 2015 Okay, this thread seems unusually popular today, so I'll ask yet again.Can someone, a moderator perhaps, put together all of the "best song on Clockwork Angels" threads into one with their respective polls? Before the Totem Polls reboot a little while back there were three of these threads hanging around in the depths of Feedback because people didn't see a thread for it tacked to the front page and didn't go looking for any past ones, thus making a new thread for the same topic. This one here, the one I created, was the first one, but there were two others created in later months after this one fell off of the front page, and one of them was actually much more popular for some reason, having many more posts and votes. When Feedback/Totem Polls got a makeover a few months back, this thread was chosen as the one to put up on the front page and the other two seem to have been forgotten about. Somebody, please put them together.
Verena Posted October 24, 2015 Posted October 24, 2015 Seven Cities of Gold, Headlong Flight and Caravan. They're all on the same level to me.
Entre_Perpetuo Posted October 24, 2015 Author Posted October 24, 2015 Btw, I've given up on my age old attempt to get thus put together with the favorite song from CA thread, partly because no one would do it, or even respond to me, and partly because I finally realized favorite and best are two different things.
kamrahai Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 I think this an awesome album over all but it boiled down to the rockin' Headlong Flight or the beautiful The Garden. The Garden wins but not by much.
goose Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 The title track is the one I enjoy the most, followed by Carnies, BU2B and The Anarchist.
x1yyz Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 I really like Caravan and The Garden, and the songs in between.
HemiBeers Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 Toss-up for me between CA and HF. CA gets the nod because of the creative bluesy bridge...something they haven't really done before. Most underappreciated song for me is Halo Effect. Yes it's simple and ballady, but it's a nice chill out point in the album. Most overrated is Seven Cities of Gold. The chorus is the cliché A G E chord progression that you hear in sooooooo many rock songs. As soon as heard that I thought 'come on guys you can do better than that'.
maplelevy Posted February 13, 2016 Posted February 13, 2016 Like a great number of Rush albums, picking a favorite is next to impossible. Went with The Garden, with its beautiful music and lyrics, but BU2B, Headlong Flight, Caravan and The Halo Effect would round out my top five.
Entre_Perpetuo Posted July 20, 2016 Author Posted July 20, 2016 At this point I find it legitimately hilarious that I never received one single response to the question of if this thread could be put together with the other "best/favorite song of of CA" poll threads. Like I said a long while ago, I've given up on trying to get a response to that question, but to anyone reading down through this page, you've got to admit, the lack of attention paid to my posts on that topic is rather hilarious, isn't it? No? Just me? S'fine. The title track is the best, btw, but it's a monster album and a modern day classic, whatever the hopeless may say... ;)
Xan2112adu Posted July 25, 2016 Posted July 25, 2016 The Garden is my fave. Who in the heck voted for "BU2B2?!

NewWorldScott Posted October 2, 2017 Posted October 2, 2017 After many many listens, I think "The Wreckers" is my favorite. So melodic, dramatic, and an awesome chorus. It still's awesome and amazing how good this album really is! 2
New_World_Man Posted October 4, 2017 Posted October 4, 2017 I haven't listened to it in a while. There's one track with a really cool guitar line that sounds a bit unusual. I can't remember which song it is though.
New_World_Man Posted October 4, 2017 Posted October 4, 2017 Oh wait, I'm thinking of the anarchist. Nevermind.
Derek19 Posted November 18, 2018 Posted November 18, 2018 (edited) For, and to me, I chose "the Garden". The songs "Wish Them Well", and "the Wreckers" are in second, and third from "Clockwork Angels". Edited October 31, 2022 by Derek19 1

NetBoy2112 Posted August 10, 2020 Posted August 10, 2020 The opening to The Anarchist is just mindblowing to me. Perfect on every level. It was such a wonderful opener for the R40 tour. 1
