toymaker Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 At the end of I Think I'm Going Bald it sounds like Lee yells "get a haircut, will ya?". Am I hearing that right? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LedRush Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 3 great songs mentioned in the poll, but Dog Years is easily the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eel Yddeg Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 I like both, (You read that right) but I like I Think I'm Going Bald more. A killer riff-rocker, no idea why it's so hated. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justus_2112 Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 ITIGB may not fit with the rest of the Rush catalogue, but it is still a fun song. (With a cool guitar part.) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyBlaze Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 DOG YEARS is in my top 15 Rush songs. it grooves like no other Rush tune.I think of Dog Years the same way I do about Superconductor---songs I like but don't love but are hated by many. Still, Bald wins for me. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goose Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 I enjoy both songs. They're far from great, but I appreciate the humor and music of both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoahLutz Posted September 29, 2022 Share Posted September 29, 2022 I’ll go with, 1. Dog Years 2. Tai Shan 3. I Think I’m Going Bald I actually don’t mind ITIGB, but on another topic @taurus made a convincing argument why it would have been better left off of Caress of Steel completely. It messes up the flow and tone of the album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timbale Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 I went for Tai Shan! It is not a great song...but it is more interesting than the other two. And better sung. I had to listen to both Dog Years and Bald to assess them - it's been a long while. Dog Years is somewhat interesting musically - and the chorus is kinda catchy. But of course the lyrics are dreadful. This is where Neil had gone so far beyond scraping the bottom of the barrel that he removed the bottom of the barrel, dug straight down to China, passed by the Tai Shan mountain on his way, and kept going until he found the Dog Years lyrics... I Think I'm Going Bald, as has been mentioned elsewhere, starts off as a rip off of In The Mood, which, if you're gonna steal from yourself, jesus christ, pick a good song at least. Then it goes on to be a kinda non-song to me. The solo is ok. The vocal has always been one of my least favourite things ever. I mean, I don't know how one could deliver the titular line without sounding like an idiot - maybe Paul Rodgers or someone could - but Geddy just sounds...ugh. I can't believe I just listened to it so I could vote. Damn you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
