    Posted: December 09 2005 at 15:49
This has been done before with other bands but I can't specifically remember a Rush one so here goes:
Rush-In The Mood
Fly By Night-Fly By Night
Caress of Steel-Bastille Day (The only 5 star song on this album)
2112- 2112 (Duh)
A Farewell To Kings- Closer To The Heart
Hemispheres- Circumstances  (I like the line in french thrown in)
Permanent Waves- The Spirit Of Radio
Moving Pictures- Vital Signs
Signals- Subdivisions
Grace Under Pressure- Between The Wheels
Power Windows-  Grand Designs  (Every song on this album is good though)
Hold Your Fire- Time Stand Still  (Aimee Mann's part is small but I love it)
Presto- Red Tide
Roll The Bones- Bravado (Dreamline is also good)
Counterparts- Cold Fire (It was between this and Double Agent)
Test For Echo- Resist (thought I'd go with Test for Echo since that's where my username is from)
Vapor Trails- One Little Victory (Rush's heaviest song I love the drum intro)
Feedback- Summertime Blues (My favorite version of this song, the bass and drum solo parts are sweet.)
"The rock and roll business is pretty absurd, but the world of serious music is much worse." - Zappa
