Chain Lightning has been a dark horse for me as well. It was one I tended to overlook initially but now it is one of my favorites from Presto.

 

I always thought Cold Fire was a good solid tune as well. Open Secrets is another dark horse for me. I always skipped it for a long time, but when I am in a certain mood I enjoy it. It is growing on me as time goes by (as is a lot of that album).

I used to overlook Circumstances - it was just too overshadowed by the rest of the album. But my wife latched onto that song, and I started listening to it more and after it was featured on the SnA Tour, I re-evaluated it and find it enjoyable. Still like The Trees and La Villa more though!

5. Territories

4. Face Up

3. Sweet Miracle

2. Entre Nous

1. Tai Shan

 

I thought Face Up deserved more than what Rupert Hine could do with it on RtB. I think it would've fitted better on CP or TfE. Definitely like the solo.

Another five I think are not just underrated, but up their with the bands very best:

 

Distant Early Warning

Cold Fire

Everyday Glory

Lakeside Park

Making Memories

 

I didn't mention these earlier because I forget these aren't massive favourites. They are mine though! These five and the above five would be my ten most beloved underrated Rush songs.

I don't think any of the good songs are under-rated.

 

Most songs that are under-rated deserve to be. :LOL:

 

Opinions...

 

I think Signals is overrated and doesn't deserve the praise it gets.

I'll have to ponder this tonight while closing the cigar lounge. I suspect it will be heavy on Power Windows, HYF and Presto. Perhaps some VT, S&A and CA will make the list.
