1: La Villa Strangiato
2: Xanadu
3: Tom Sawyer

Pretty standard answers, but they're just so damn good.
I use they/them pronouns (feel free to ask me about this!)

Check out my music on my bandcamp!

I remember a bunch of Rush lists featured elsewhere on the internet (usually "rock", not "prog" oriented sites), and 2112 usually takes the top spot. Perhaps proggers look deeper in their catalogue? On the other hand, some Rush dedicated forum had a thread going about Xanadu being overrated - and they definitely have a great knowledge of Rush discography. So it might be a matter of taste, we love those buildups, synthesizers and quirks, but people in general prefer blazing rockers perhaps Question

If you could please disclose at least 10 songs out of 10.000, preferably 1977-81 period, I'll pay!

I know that forum, I've been on it for years! lol That Xanadu thread wasn't so much people agreeing it was overrated as it was one guy who doesn't think it's that great of a song trying to figure out why everyone else likes it.

Also I would pay for even 1 song from that period.
Porg for short. My love of music doesn't end with prog! Feel free to discuss all sorts of music with me. Odds are I'll give it a chance if I haven't already! :)

If I had one "brand new" album from 1979 or so, fusion of prog rock approach of Hemispheres and efficient songwriting with synthesizer touch (a la Permanent Waves and especially Moving Pictures), I would definitely move Rush up in my all time ranks! That might actually be another thread idea right there.

I'll be closing this thread today so it's your last chance to vote! Cool

My choices are:



3. The Weapon
2. Natural Science
1. By-Tor And The Snow Dog
Friedrich Nietzsche: "Without music, life would be a mistake."



Music Is Live

Two people are better off than one, for they can help each other succeed.



Keep Calm And Listen To The Music…
