Why so little love for Freewill? I like it way better than Spirit Of Radio...
Where are you getting the idea that folks don't love Freewill? The four remaining songs are all Rush classics, and one of them has to lose. Being the fourth best song on an album like Permanent Waves is pretty damn good.
Yeah exactly. Pay close attention to the key words LEAST FAVORITE.
What they said. "Least Favorite" should never imply "most hated", unless you're the first song out in any given survivor, but even then, it would only really matter if the first song out was voted out with an overwhelming majority. When it comes to Rush fans and the band's hey-day, there are very few songs that the majority of fans will dislike, but on albums like PEW and MP, there are definitely some songs that many fans like more than others, but that doesn't mean they don't like or love some of the lower-ranked songs like "Freewill". "The Trees" placed third on Hemispheres, the bottom half, and being only 5 minutes of a 35-40 minute album, just by looking at the facts, you'd think it was a hated song, but that's REALLY not the case!
