TOP 20 RUSH Songs - #5

This is the new, long distance project ON A MISSION - to determine consensus 20 Best Rush Songs Cool
As determined in this preliminary thread, we are using a method already tested in a similar Genesis Project.

Every participant names three songs in order of preference:
First song = 4.5 points
Second song = 3 points
Third song = 2 points
After a couple of days I add up your "points" and announce the winning song for a current spot.
Then we move on and vote for the next spot. All points are reset.
Our goal is to come up with 20 songs and hopefully get it done before Christmas Clown

Voting is closed.
No. 5 song is Natural Science

1. Natural Science. 16.5 pts
2. Cygnus X-1 Book I: The Voyage. 15.5 pts
2. YYZ. 15.5 pts
4. Freewill. 15.0 pts

~~~THE LIST~~~
3. 2112
6. to be continued

My vote:
1 Natural Science
2 Cygnus X-1 Book II: Hemispheres
3 Red Barchetta

Hemispheres might be a bit "simple" in comparison to some ~20 minute prog epics, but I can't deny its impact. The pictures they paint with music are full of color, tranquility, and I love the production. It's so airy, so lofty! Typical Lifeson chords make listening to this a pure joy.
Red Barchetta might just be their best "rocker", it's a very detailed track with fascinating story. I rarely praise the lyrics (regardless of genre), but this pure idea of freedom and youth spirit contrasted with oppressive, futuristic system - cyberpunk meets Vanishing Point - gets me every time.
