Topic: best Rush song by Album
Posted By: video vertigo
Subject: best Rush song by Album
Date 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.)

    Rush - Working Man (this one was easy)
    Fly By Night - By-Tor and the Snowdog
    Caress of Steel - The Fountain of Lamneth (though The Necromancer is very close)
    2112 - 2112 of course.
    A Farewell to Kings - Xanadu (but Cygnus X-1 comes really close)
    Hemispheres - La Villa Strangiato
    Permanent Waves - Freewill (solo section is absolutely amazing by all three, Natural Science is close)
    Moving Pictures - YYZ
    Signals - this is really hard... Losing It, The Weapon, Chemistry, Digital Man...
    Grace Under Pressure - Between the Wheels, Kid Gloves
    Power Windows - Emotion Detector, Territories
    Hold Your Fire - Open Secrets, Mission
    Presto - Show Don't Tell, War Paint, The Pass, Presto
    Roll the Bones - Ghost of a Chance, Bravado, Where's My Thing
    Counterparts - This is also really hard, Alien Shore, Double Agent, Between the Sun and Moon...
    Test for Echo - Time and Motion, Test for Echo, Driven, Totem, Resist....
    Vapor Trails - Ceiling Unlimited, Stars Look Down, Secret Touch
    Feedback - Heart Full of Soul, Crossroads

    Live Albums

    All the World's a Stage - By-Tor and the Snowdog (ALex is great on this track)
    Exit..Stage Left - La Villa Strangiato (Perhaps Alex's fastest recorded performance)
    A show of Hands - Mission (Alex's extended solo is one of his best)
    Different Stages - 2112 in its entirety
    Rush in Rio - Secret Touch, sounds so much better than the poorly master studio version
    R30 - Subdivisions, they performed it flawlessly and Alex's guitar and louder and crunchier

    As you can see picking one favorite Rush song per album is extremely difficult if not impossible... for some of us anyway

    Rush - Working Man
    Fly By Night - Anthem
    Caress of Steel - Bastille Day
    2112 - 2112
    A Farewell to Kings - Xanadu
    Hemispheres - La Villa Strangiato
    Permanent Waves - Freewill
    Moving Pictures - YYZ

    And in my opinion, after that, its all goes downhill enough for me to stay away from it.

    The band also seem not to like 'In The Mood'. They once remarked something like 'We wrote In The Mood quickly- the bad ones are always quick to write' in an issue of Classic Rock I have. I similarly think it's the poorest song on their otherwise fine debut.

    As for me,

    RUSH- Working Man

    FLY BY NIGHT- Anthem

    CARESS OF STEEL- Bastill Day

    2112- 2112

    A FAREWELL TO KINGS- Xanadu

    HEMISPHERES- La Villa Strangiato

    PERMANENT WAVES- Jacob's Ladder

    MOVING PICTURES- YYZ

    SIGNALS- Subdivisions

    GRACE UNDER PRESSURE- Distant Early Warning

    POWER WINDOWS- Marathon

    HOLD YOUR FIRE- Force Ten

    PRESTO- The Pass

     

    That's the only ones I'm that familiar with...

    Yes...It's "Awsomely bad".  See my review for CARESS OF STEEL.  Now THAT one sounds like it was written in a, um, rush.  I can only imagine Alex and Geddy rolling their eyes.

    A Farewell to Kings  - Xanadu
    Hemispheres - Circumstances
    Permanent Waves - The Spirit of Radio
    Moving Pictures -  Limelight
    Signals - Subdivisions
    Grace Under Pressure - Afterimage
    Power Windows - Marathon
    Hold Your Fire - Time Stand Still
    Presto - Chain Lightning
    Roll the Bones - Roll the Bones
    Counterparts - Nobody's Hero
    Test For Echo - Driven
    Vapor Trails - Earthshine

    Feedback - what's it, that song opens Alice Cooper's Special Forces as well...

    Choosing within Grace Under Pressure and Hold Your Fire was not easy since they are the best albums for me, where I love everything without exception. By the way, very fond of their live performances, either listening to or watching. Show Of Hands was the very recording that introduced Rush to me.

    With science, you can turn a frog into a Ph.D. and you still have the frog you started with.
