12.01.22 | I’d put 1 and 4 somewhere below 8 and move 10 close to the top |

12.01.22 | Dang your number 1 is my 19 |
YoYoMancuso
12.01.22 | we share 3 of our top 5, props for recognizing that Test For Echo slaps. Can't get behind Hold Your Fire at 1, but if it has your favorite song ever then it's understandable |

12.01.22 | Love a good idiosyncratic Rush ranking, love the Counterparts love |
DavidYowi

12.01.22 | This is quite the ranking. There's no such thing as bad Rush however so I can't fault you for it. Hold Your Fire at #1 is brave but I can agree that Lock and Key fucking slaps |

12.01.22 | There is no such thing as bad rush! |

12.01.22 | Weird list but yeah, there's no bad Rush (except for 18. Screw that thing)
I suppose 16 being that low annoys me more than 1, 4 and 8 being that high |
Titan
12.01.22 | props for HYF at 1......love that record man |

12.01.22 | Interesting ranking, interesting 1. But why not? I love their 80s sound. And hey, I agree with 19 on 19 :) Also, Moving Pictures is great, but I´d put it in a similar spot.
Happy I managed to see them on their last tour. This band will always be exceptional.
Same constellation since album 2, no law suits, no bad blood, just 3 very charming and intelligent men doing their thing. Fantastic. |
Titan
12.01.22 | Rush’s music was always uplifting for me Brabiz. I agree with the good vibes, especially from Hold Your Fire. I find the lyrics on many of the songs to be very profound. Open Secrets, Second Nature, Prime Mover, Mission, and Lock and Key are prime examples. They are songs about life, challenges, temptation, emotion, urge, consequence, and how we process each.

12.01.22 | 17 is a good spot for RtB. That one grew off me significantly |
Titan
12.01.22 | Roll The Bones and Hold Your Fire both have a similar effect on me. On certain days, each is my favorite Rush record. |

12.04.22 | As much as I like The Pass, I still think Scars might be the crown jewel on Presto |
Titan
12.05.22 | Available Light for me. I think that song is a masterpiece. |

12.30.22 | The remix does definitely add a lot of dimension that the original mix didn't get across. Some really great hidden gems on that record. |
Brabiz
03.20.23 | Gunna have to re-rank. Have given all of these countless listens in the last few months |
bellovddd
03.20.23 | so happy hold your fire is number 1. |
Brabiz
03.20.23 | I don’t understand why it gets pushed down in terms of receiving attention, easily the best of their 80’s period. It sounds a bit less dated I think |
Brabiz
02.26.24 | Definitely have to redo this ranking. 18 is maybe my #3 now |
