** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MLGgzN8Kd7Q "Lock And Key"]] is a dark track with a very catchy chorus. You also can't forget Alex Lifeson's absolutely wicked guitar solo.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uQfT2jg4yww "High Water"]] is the closing track for ''Hold Your Fire'' and it is definitely one of the more unique songs the band has done. Special mention goes out to the opening drum beat and how the guitars get heavier and heavier each verse. A perfect end to Rush's "synth era".

Well, the opening beings with a soft, quiet synth part before suddenly, Alex JUMPS right in with an epic riff. Taking it a step further, every instrument is playing the exact same riff!
** [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kuqSjKgq3Sk "Chain Lightning"]]. The opening guitar riff alone makes this song one of their most beautiful compositions and the lyrics are a real tear-jerker since Neil wrote it about watching a meteor shower alone with his late daughter.

* Off the very underrated ''Presto'' album is [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VbBf0c-NaN4 "The Pass"]]. If the lyrics don't give you chills after listening to this song, then you may not have a soul. The band themselves consider it one of their personal favorites and Neil Peart in the "The Boys in Brazil" documentary on the ''Rush in Rio'' DVD mentions that he can never play the song without getting emotional and calls the song "one of our better crafted ones".

* ''Roll The Bones'' may be weak sounding from a production standpoint, but that doesn't stop it from having some amazing songs. The awesome opener [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rYCOCIHObtg "Dreamline"]], the lyrical masterpiece [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E8IUJBgy4-c "Bravado"]], the badass instrumental [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hOj0eO3zCbc "Where's My Thing?"]], and the gorgeous [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TgqkhArHBHM "Ghost Of A Chance"]] are the must-listens off this album.
** Then there is the most controversial song in the band's career, the title track [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wkiYZz_ieyg "Roll The Bones"]]. The song is (in)famous for the rap verse and the video with the rapping skeleton. Love it or hate it, you can't deny it is very funky and catchy as well.

One exclamation mark is plenty. More than that makes it read as though you\'re shouting the example full volume. Don\'t do that, please.

* Pretty much all of ''Vapor Trails'', especially in context with what happened before: Shortly after the release of the extremely weak ''Test For Echo'', Neil Peart suffered two back to back tragedies, as his daughter died in a car accident, and then his wife died of cancer. For a few years, it seemed as though Rush was done, until they got back together, and recorded ''Vapor Trails'', a comeback in every sense of the word, to the point of even being lampshaded by the song "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s3P7u4JuqdY Sweet Miracle]]".
