Xanadu is Rush. A long & complex song with many differing parts, double-neck guitars, memorable and quotable lyrics (say to any diehard Rush fan "Honeydew" and they'll reply "Xanadu").
Seriously, if I have the time to plan for my death, Xanadu from Exit Stage Left will be one of the last things I watch.
How does one choose a single greatest Rush track? It’s not possible. I don’t think I could even narrow down a top 5.
His videos are really informative and entertaining. Also he’s a big Rush fan!
Beato.
The only contenders aside from Xanadu for me are La Villa and Hemispheres.
La Villa Strangiato is Rush's best song.
I saw this too a few days ago. It's a great song but I agree, they've had better. My viewpoint changes. There will be times where I can't stop playing a song for days. Xanadu has been in that spot many times in my Playlist. Rush, to me, will always be a pinnacle of great music from 3 of the greatest musicians ever.
I think Red Barchetta is their best, but Xanadu is certainly up there.
There are about a dozen tracks I'd accept an argument for, and Xanadu is definitely one of them
