EagleMoon Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 --- wish them well, total filler... totally whipped up and doesnt belong and doesn't fit with the rest or flow of the album I would agree. It's the worst song on the album next to Carnies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ancient Ways Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 I like the message and it could be much better with some minor adjustments. Unfortunately they used Nick R and not me so you're stuck with it the way it is 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Attttui Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 I like it, a more lighthearted song. To me it fits in with the concept and what the narrator has learned in the end. I think a lot of people don't like because, given how much awesome material there is on Clockwork Angels, good but not amazing tracks sound worse. If Wish Them Well had been on, say, Snakes and Arrows, I think more people would like it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shemp Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 It's Ok but I wouldn't call the album near perfect. To me 7COG is the worst song. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me 7COG is the worst song.If that is the worst song on the album, then CA is the best album ever recorded in the history of mankind Edited July 1, 2015 by Tombstone Mountain 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Digital Dad Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 yeah, I agree. Its filler. Just like Bravest Face on Snakes. They don't want to give up on anything, but maybe they should start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DistantEarlySignals Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 I love the song, but I dislike the drumming on it. During the bridge, Neil stays on the high-hat, when it would sound so much better to go to a ride. I am still confused and bummed that he didn't do that. Ruins most of the songs. Something very rare for Neil - drumming on a song that isn't that good.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Na na na Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 About 90% of Wish Them Well is great (even better live)...I'm not to fond of the intro, the rest is good to go! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Segue Myles Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 It's a great song in my opinion. Really reminds me of early Rush, almost like a FBN or 2112 leftover if you ask me! And the backing vocals are awesome. The high notes are hit with ease, and alongside Seven Cities Of Gold and Headlong Flight, it belongs on the short list of GREAT Rush songs post-1989 (not counting Vapor Trails). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Relayer2112 Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 I think the entirety of Clockwork Angels is overrated on this forum. It's a mediocre collection of songs at best. I'm surprised it gets so much love. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
