YYZumbi Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 What is your least favorite Rush song if you only look at the lyrics?
laughedatbytime Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 Half the World. Phoned in crap that could have been written for a fourth grade poetry contest and would have finished as an also ran. 3
bluefox4000 Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 Dog yearsHalf the WorldCold FireHearsyDouble Agent. Take your pick of the 90's really. Mick 3
laughedatbytime Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 No one's mentioned Neurotica yet? Or You Bet Your Life? 3
bluefox4000 Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 No one's mentioned Neurotica yet? Or You Bet Your Life? both horrid but Neurotica is saved by a very underrated guitar solo. Mick
bluefox4000 Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 Oh speed of Love. where's the puke bucket? Mick 3
JohnRogers Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 No one's mentioned Neurotica yet? Or You Bet Your Life? You did, so I'll add The Body Electric and I Think I'm Going Bald.
bluefox4000 Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 The Big Wheel. God isn't cher touring somewhere. ya couldn't give that to her? Rush- the girl group, lol Mick 2
lifeson90 Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 all of my least fav rush stuff is on CA half brilliance, half sub standard for this band. couldn't put my finger on anything weak at all before that.
EagleMoon Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 If there's a typo in the title, you know it's got to be a Zumbi thread. Dog Years. 2
MMCXII Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 "Their thirst for freedom gives them hunger for vengeance" "Silence shrouds the forest as the birds announce the dawn" They sound like a high school kid trying to be a good writer.. I'll give Neil a break though because that's basically what he was at the time lol
JARG Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 No one's mentioned Neurotica yet? Or You Bet Your Life? both horrid but Neurotica is saved by a very underrated guitar solo. Mick Which has no bearing on the lyrics. :) 1
Lucas Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 (edited) No one's mentioned Neurotica yet? Or You Bet Your Life? You did, so I'll add The Body Electric and I Think I'm Going Bald. I will let "bald" slide as it was obviously not intended to be anything more than comic relief ... The way Geddy first says "I think I'm, I'm goin' bald" is delivered with perfect comic intentions ... RUSH was touring with KISS at the time, and has mentioned "Going Bald" as a sort of companion piece to KISS' "Goin' Blind" The really bad lyrics from Neil are the ones that are intended to be deep and fall short I'll toss out Red Lenses, Roll The Bones and basically anything from the 90s I still don't know what to make of Dog Years Edited April 3, 2015 by Lucas
JohnRogers Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 Good points Lucas. I strike my comments aboot Bald. The Body Electric still annoys me.
Narps Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 If there's a typo in the title, you know it's got to be a Zumbi thread. Dog Years.There is a typo? I only got though high school so... ;) 1
Stormtron Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 Alien Shore is pretty bad. "We'd elect each other president...." :rfl: 3
troutman Posted April 4, 2015 Posted April 4, 2015 No one's mentioned Neurotica yet? Or You Bet Your Life? Never listen to either of them. Chemistry
Xanadu Posted April 4, 2015 Posted April 4, 2015 Yes, Dog Years. Good music in that song, too bad about the lyrics. Dogs may make great pets but they make lousy subject matter for songs (in my humble opinion). This one always makes me cringe too:"Now I lay me down in dream land." Ick.
