toymaker Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 Oh man, you picked three songs that are all awesome for sort of different reasons. No fair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apetersvt Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 La Villa or Limelight for sure. Went with LVS. Those two are my favorites along with Xanadu, No One At The Bridge, Return Of The Prince, and Presentation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lorraine Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 There's only one La Villa. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geezer Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 La Villa. It's an instrumental piece because not even Shakespeare could find lyrics worth the music. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tuesday's Gone Posted May 22, 2015 Author Share Posted May 22, 2015 I voted for La Villa Strangiato too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue J Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 Three incredible songs, and a very difficult choice. All of the solos are so different stylistically, also. I have to rank them thusly: 1. La Villa2. Freewill (among my favourite Lifeson solos ever)3. Limelight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HemiBeers Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 No contest. La villa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digital Man Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 Three incredible songs, and a very difficult choice. All of the solos are so different stylistically, also. I have to rank them thusly: 1. La Villa2. Freewill (among my favourite Lifeson solos ever)3. Limelight I'm with you. The bass in those first two is incredible too. When I was getting into Rush, way back when, I had only heard Permanent Waves and Signals was the new release at the time; I knew nothing of their older stuff. I was partying with a kid who played bass and I asked him if he could play Freewill (the bass lines had just blown me away). He kind of scoffed at me and said I can play La Vila Strangiato. I went "What is La Villa whateveryousaid?" (we were partying, remember, ala 1982-83). I went out the next day to hunt it down and haven't looked back since. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed, the bass playing is just jaw-dropping; fantastic! Again, Freewill contains some of Geddy's finest bass shredding...but La Villa still takes the cake.

Xanadu Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 The solo is great in La Villa but I think of the song as an entire jam session, whereas the other two are true solos within their respective songs. In which case I have to pick Limelight. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ancient Ways Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 I prefer Limelight. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Entre_Perpetuo Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 When I say I will choose Freewill, I don't mean that's what I'm voting for. :huh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlotte7598 Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 While La Villa is a stronger musical piece, I went with Limelight for the guitar solo. It just makes me feel intense feelings whenever I hear it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
