TS

Though it could have easily been HW. Both should be the first to go.

Tough choice between TS & HW.

I'll go with TS.  HW has that really cool final riff to close the album.

My list:

Mission
Time Stand Still
Tai Shan

 ???

High Water is a great song.  Great groove.

I had to vote for Tai Shan, even though I appreciate it and like it sometimes if I'm in the right mood.

High Water, you're on notice.
Winger would be better!

. . . and if you gaze into the abyss, the abyss gazes also into you.

There is no way that Second Nature is better than High Water.  I still can't believe how underrated High Water is.  I am not saying it should be top 5 on this album, but it's certainly too good to be one of the first three out.

I love this album, no bad or even mediocre songs here.

Prime Mover. Even though it has grown on me, it is still a few steps back the others.

Don't get the hate for Tai Shan AT ALL.

It's not hate.  Least favorite.  Huge difference.

Actually...you're right.   But in my defence, I was thinking out of context.   In other avenues among Rush fans, I tend to see a lot of people criticize Tai Shan to a fairly harsh degree.

But in this thread, you are 100% correct.  I haven't seen "hate" from anyone here.

That's too bad because it is a good song.  I've always liked it.  ;)
