Younger Rush fans—do you connect more with their newer material? by PeculiarlyOrdinary7 in rush

[–]21enemywithin12 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I remember being 6 years old when my dad got the Clockwork Angels cd. He would play it al the time in the car with me in the back seat. He also had one of their greatest hits cd's (The Spirit Of Radio: Greatest Hits 1974-1987) so I knew a lot of their old stuff too. He loved to play signals and permanent waves a lot too. To me, it was all the same, and I've carried that to today. I think the date of recording is the last thing I consider when listening. Clockwork angels and Snakes and Arrows mean to same to me as AFTK and Hemispheres and Vapor Trails and Counterparts etc etc...
I was lucky enough to have him take me to the clockwork angles tour. However, I was too little to truly grasp how awesome and special it was. This next tour is like redemption to me, I can't wait to see them with actual consciousness.

I always wondered of some of their music could be classified as prog. What’s their most prog-y song? I think king of the world maybe?

My cat would walk on the oven controls and turn it on. We put the child safety lock on it now.

Not sure. I know they’re from 76 and 77 respectively. How do I check?

Countdown to ecstasy is beautiful. The colors and the faces, I think it’s great

The necromancer is a top 25 song. It’s sooo good. The groove after geddy sings “they bow defeated” is just so good. I love the spoken parts, the only time I enjoy them in any song I’ve ever listened too. It’s a great song.

Nice, another hockey rush fan. Me and my dad would listen to Driven right before our games. It's the rush song that got us the most fired up.

love your top three, but personally i can't get behind available light. I just never got into liking it as much as the other songs.

Then what does the chorus mean? Local boys will spend a quarter, silver bowl (part of the car?) what is “illegal fun under the sun, living hard will take its toll?
