Which of these Police-influenced Rush songs you like better?
My choice is NWM hands down. I don't like Vital Signs and I think it's the weakest track on Moving Pictures, kinda filler.

Hey look, a poll that Rush might actually win with!
...a vigorous circular motion hitherto unknown to the people of this area, but destined
to take the place of the mud shark in your mythology...

Uh... I can see the Police connection for "New World Man," but "Vital Signs?" Doesn't have any of the Police "sound" to these ears.

The weakest track on Moving Pictures vs the weakest track save one on Signals. Yet both are still good and this is a close call. I vote for Vital Signs.

Fairly weak tracks. Vital Signs by a slim margin.
Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy!

New World Man

I've never thought of The Police when I listen to these two songs.

Maybe we've had enough Rush/MP polls now?

NWM
Was completely taken off guard the first time I heard it on the radio. It left an impression ever since.
Welcome to the middle of the film.

Vital Signs is one of my favourite songs ever, so easy choice.

It's the reverse for me. And I'll go with the rollicking NWM.

Hard to decide, just because neither is really not my favourite Rush songs at all. I choose New World Man.
