I've never known Moving Pics to have any trouble with affection around here?  Highest rated Rush album on PA, even higher rated than HemispheresSmile
Yeah, Finn, I know. But sometimes we get "I'm more prog than thou" and state the more complex and less popular, so I took the more popular. Both are good to me at certain times. But still unevenly matched, IMO.

Going for TS. I haven't heard the song in years, but it's as close to AOR that Rush ever got but still remained genuine.

For me, Tom Sawyer isn't overrated, it's over exposed. After 35 years, I simply don't need to hear it anymore.

The Necromancer is one of my all time favorite Rush songs. In fact, I like Caress of Steel more than 2112 (gasp! shock! harrumph!)

Which Rush song you prefer and why? 

I prefer Necromancer, and for me it's not even close. Tom Sawyer is so overrated, Necromancer is so underrated!
The main reason: Lifeson's amazing and underrated guitar work, esp. in the part III Return of the Prince. Necromancer is in my top 5 personal favorite Rush songs.
