Choosing that song off of 2112 is an "unpopular opinion," but I think it is one of the most beautiful songs Rush ever did.

Let's see...I'm going to avoid the epics and focus on songs. So how about:

 

What You're Doing - Love the hook & tone of this one, although I could have picked any number of songs from this great album

Fly By Night - One of their most perfect radio-friendly songs

Lakeside Park - This song has great spirit, and belongs in a "best of..." list like this. Another album that I have a hard time picking a favorite from

A Passage to Bangkok - Classic riff

Closer to the Heart - Like FBN, a great radio-friendly song and a concert staple. Easily the best non-epic on this album

Circumstances - I like the sentiment of the song, and the heaviness. The Trees is great musically, but the lyrics...

Freewill - Heavy guitar and drum parts. It's not easy to make a short song so complex and yet listenable

Red Barchetta - A relatively short song that has the impact of an epic. A great range of emotion on this one

Subdivisions - Not sure how you can go against one of RUSH's most perfect songs

Distant Early Warning - A killer live track. This was a tough choice, though. Three or four others could easily have been the one

Middle Town Dreams - Great emotion.

Time Stand Still - This song speaks to me as much as any RUSH song

Scars - Love the lyrics and the groove. Haters can hate, but Presto has some great songs on it, and features some of Geddy's best vocals

Ghost Of A Chance - It's pretty much how I see the world. Great playing by Alex

Between Sun and Moon - I really like the chrous

Time and Motion - One of my favorite RUSH tracks, period. Mostly a dud of an album...although I do like Dog Years

Earthshine - A fantastic song by the group

Working Them Angels - Great idea for a song, and I loved hearing it live on the S & A tour

Clockwork Angels - Strong track. There's quite a few that could have been picked, which suprises me because I'm not crazy about the album as a whole.
