Bottom Ten Least Favourite Rush Songs


Segue Myles

Recommended Posts

I can only recognize a handful of songs from Presto, T4E, and Vapor Trails. My real list would be comprised of a bunch of garbage from those albums, like Resist, and that ludicrous song about Internet love.

 

Among the albums I know:

 

I Think I'm Going Bald (Detracts from an otherwise great album)

Grand Designs (Its inclusion on the CA Tour setlist was really irritating)

Mystic Rhythm (I've never been able to explain why this song bothers me)

Tai Shan (What could I possibly add to what's already been said?)

High Water (Ditto)

Stick it Out (Rush goes grunge, LOL)

Speed of Love (This song doesn't inspire comment)

Neurotica (Grates)

Face Up (The definition of "album cut.")

Seven Cities of Gold (I've never made it all the way through. Does it get better?)

I had to think about this because there were so many to choose from.

 

Superconductor

Nobody's Hero

Dog Years

Middletown Dreams

Stick It Out

Bravest Face

The Larger Bowl

Anagram

Seven Cities of Gold

Halo Effect

 

I love Seven Cities, but noticed a few here dislike that song...odd!

 

I can't say it's one of my favourite songs, but what exactly is it about Middletown Dreams that you dislike? It's one of those songs I have no definite opinion on, but I'd like to hear your verdict!

I'll make a great song list(for me) of songs listed in this worst song thread.

 

Witch Hunt

Chemistry

Entre Nous

Between The Wheels

Grand Designs

Middletown Dreams

Mission

Time Stand Still

Colour Of Right

Anarchist

 

 

ALL great songs!!!!

Gosh, I'd have to agree with you (except for Chemistry, not a fan). To each his/her own I suppose.

I adore Chemistry. I know Rush producer Nick R. loves it as well. Heard him say that in an interview or something. The bass line and reggae feel are awesome. Not to mention the smoking guitar solo at the end. Respect your opinion though:)

Bottom 10?

 

I'll try.

 

By-Tor and the Snow Dog

Entre Nous

Second Nature

Tai Shan

Superconductor (its placement right after Presto is unforgivable)

Nobody's Hero

Cut to the Chase (this song does not cut to the chase)

Alien Shore

Half the World

The Larger Bowl

 

Wow!!! Not only do I like all of those songs (some more than others), but By-Tor is a top 10 song for me. To each their own I guess.

Ok, I will take a stab at this. In no particular order it would include:

 

Dog Years

Virtuality

The Necromancer

The Fountain of Lamneth

Freeze

Out of The Cradle

Nocturne

Carnies

Clockwork Angeles

The Anarchist

 

I though I was alone disliking The Anarchist and Carnies!

Presto

Roll the Bones

Counterparts

Half of Test of Echo

edit: Half of Snakes and Arrows

 

Fine, I'll be more specific:

 

Totem

Resist

Nobody's Hero

Speed of Love

Heresy

Neurotica

Hand Over Fist

Faithless

Bravest Face

The Larger Bowl

 

It was difficult culling 10 tracks from this era. A list of 20 would have been so much easier! :P

Chronologically we have:

 

Need Some Love

Fly By Night

Limelight

Superconductor

Face Up

Neurotica

You Bet Your Life

Stick It Out

The Speed Of Love

Carve Away The Stone

What in god's name is Limelight doing in there?!!!!

 

;)

 

My reaction as well.

 

Puzzeled by the inclusion of FBN, The Speed of Love & Carve Away the Stone as well - just to a lesser degree.

 

To each their own I guess - which is 100% fine as it keeps the world interesting.
