So many vids... I can't even open the first page, so there may be a couple of repeats.

TBH, this probably isn't even DD's best opener, to say nothing of their best song.

They've had some killer openers.

Both of the above are outstanding songs, but I've been dancing around the obvious:

 

The thing about bands like Duran Duran, U2 and (our topic for this post) Rush is that they've had really long and prolific careers, so not only do you have a large number of albums to argue about, you have the moment their career was launched...

 

A song that re-launched their careers, and effectivley made them the legends they are today...

 

Songs that introduced a drastic new change in style:

(1/2) "We're giving up on that synthesized shit and going back to being a rock band"

 

(2/2) "We're not writing 20-minute epics any more"

And of course, arguably my personal favorite Rush opener, "We just returned from absolute mayhem in the drummer's life to kick your pathetic little ass."

Ah, that’s a great one. I wore the shit out of that album in college.

Three way tie for first. What do I win?

Excellent choices. You get a digital gold star and a pretend fist bump 

Here's one that's a little obscure.  I'm glad I had older brothers and sisters, or else I would have never heard stuff like this.  Great for open road, high speed cruising:

 

It doesn’t get any better than this. Side one, track one of their first and only album and it’s an eponymous track.

“Say something for the record. Tell the people what you feel.”

“Fuck the record. And fuck the people!”

The world lost a great one when Lynn Strait was killed.
