"Losing It" has always been a sleeper favorite of mine. It's never gotten old some 20+ years later. Violin solo was a great touch.

Nice poll, this one. Makes a change to have some of the less mentioned songs on here. Well done! 
I voted for Different Strings, by far the best song on Permanent Waves for me. But Losing It is close behind. In fact, I could have voted for any on the list, with the exception of the first two, which are too heavy and unmelodic for me.
Another song you could have included is Madrigal, off A Farewell To Kings. Very underrated, and one of my favourite Rush ballads.  |

All are fantastic songs (amongst my favorites on their respective albums), but I'd say Losing It is the best of the bunch.

If it was the live version of "In the end" from "All the world's a stage" then I'd vote for that. Otherwise it's Cinderella Man.

Either Losing it or Circumstances... but all spectacular songs in my book.

"Vital Signs" for me, though I also love "Something for Nothing" and the incredibly sad but beautiful "Losing It".

Yeah at least it isn't up to Dream Theater level "yet"  ... I think I'm gonna choose Different Strings such a beautifull song with really thoughtfull lyrics by Neil Peart. Certainly an underrated gem by a great band. Cinderella Man would be my next choice because of Geddy Lee's awesome bass solo during the break.
