LedRush Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 A lot of my guilty pleasures didn't feel so guilty until I learned that so many here hate these songs, but I like most of the slow songs from the first 8 albums: Tears, Rivendell, Entre Nous, Madigral and Different Strings. I'm not saying that all the songs are great, but I enjoy them all. I'll add Tai Shan (which I'm biased for because it brings me so clearly back to my time there), Halo Effect (which seems to take a lot of shit here), Bravado (which has great lyrics) and The Color of Right (ditto, plus it rocks for a slow song). For faster songs, I still love all of T4E, which also seems much-hated on TRF, and Vapor Trails (ditto). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Segue Myles Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Dare I say 'Second Nature'.. I love the lyrics Dare you not say Second Nature! Everything about HYF is perfection and to claim otherwise will...oooh cupcakes...This is true. I have a few guilty pleasures on HYF. Second Nature, Mission. Since the album isn't considered to be that good, I guess these would be considered guilty pleasures..... :) Hold Your Fire is my personal favourite Rush album, equal to AFTK.

But within a few listens, it had plunged down to my bottom 10 Rush songs... The opposite happened to me. It was kind of in the background for me really, and then one day out of nowhere it finally clicked with me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KennyLee Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 I have a few RivendellMadrigalLosing itEmotion DetectorChain LightingPrestoRoll the BonesTest for Echo Losing it is NOT a GUILTY pleasure. That song is not only magnificent but revered. I think a guilty pleasure would be a song that is looked down on or considered sub par but you like to listen to it... or something like that. For that matter Rivendell and Madrigal, I don't think would be guilty either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

savagegrace26 Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 I don't have any "guility pleasures" because I am not "guilty" about anything I like because I have excellent taste in everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geddy's Soul Patch Posted August 7, 2014 Author Share Posted August 7, 2014 Ok just to clarify. In order for a song to be considered a guilty pleasure you don't actually have to feel guilty about it. I should have phrased differently I guess, but I meant more like "what songs do you like that everybody else would give you shit for?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should have phrased differently I guess, but I meant more like "what songs do you like that everybody else would give you shit for?" I get that but it seems that people here will find a way to give you crap for anything you like. And every song has it's fans. Anyway, based on my experiences here this is what I'd most likely get "shit" for liking even though they are all good to great songs: Red LensesSecond NatureTai ShanScarsAnagram (for Mongo)Red TideHand Over FistThe Big WheelHeresyNobody's HeroCold FireThe Color of RightTotemVirtualityOut of the CradleBravest FaceGood News First Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, they have their detractors (like all songs do) but the admirers seem to greatly outnumber them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WorkingAllTheTime Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Anagram......cheese. But i love it. Mick Absolutely agree. Quirky, odd, a little too smart for it's own good... but fun. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WorkingAllTheTime Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 I am just gonna lay this one out there... Until about 6 years ago, listening to Rush on any level, let alone being a diehard fan was a guilty pleasure. Colbert and I Love You Man turned the tide and people finally had to accept the guys sold a bazillion albums for a reason. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Barchetta Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 Okay...Okay...here goes: I like "Tai Shan." I think it fits in perfectly with the rest of the album and I think the line, "I heard the hope and the hunger" is one of Neil's best. And for crying out loud...where can you get a tutorial on how to get these $#$@& emoticans to work?? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
