Xanadu gets the bronze as it places third, leaving behind the epic closers from Hemispheres and Permanent Waves to battle it out for the gold in this FINAL ROUND. For the curious, when I did this last in 2016, Xanadu tied for first place with 2112, so it hasn't fallen far from its previous place, but this is the first time both LVS and NS reach the top three (LVS was previously 4th, and NS was previously 10th).

Remember to vote for your LEAST FAVORITE song, i.e., do not vote for the one you want to win! Thanks again to the 20+ people who have participated in this since it began back in mid-January! What a year this has been, eh? But this has been a fun distraction. I'm open for more Rush-related survivors here after this is over. I was just thinking maybe one for the Album Cover Art? Or perhaps one for each major tour (based on their setlists and performances)? If anyone wants to participate in anything like that, let me know!

Rush's best song is NOT an instrumental (even if that instrumental is probably one of the best rock instrumentals ever).

Not voting but as an avid player in other survivors, I wish you all Rusheads a happy ending of the survivor  :D ;D and congrats M for taking on the massive task of running something so long!
I use my sig to pimp some bands from Italy! Check out Elvenking (Power / Folk metal), Folkstone (Rock / Medieval metal), Arcana Opera (Gothic/Noir/Heavy metal) and the beautiful voice of Elisa!

La Villa Strangiato gets my vote. It's great, but Natural science is more worthy of being number one in my opinion.

And yeah, thanks to M once again for doing a hell of a job.  :tup

Wow! I never thought Natural Science would come at number one. I don not think it deserves that place by any stretch.

You're right.  Their best song isn't even in this poll!  :neverusethis:

My vote is for Natural Science.  La Villa is clearly the better work of music.

Glad to see Natural Science win it all - my favorite Rush track of all time!
As a basic rule, if you hate it, you must solely blame Portnoy. If it's good, then you must downplay MP's contribution to the band as not being important anyway, or claim he's just lying. It's the DTF way.

I've been changing my mind all of the time, but it might be my number one as well.
