This is a great, richly-layered song, but frankly I'm burned out on it. They have SO many other brilliant songs that I'd rather hear at this point. RP is where I come to hear stuff I can't hear every day on local radio. Shake it up, Bill. One of my favorite bands. Agreed, TS is a great song and maybe it's played so more people might recognize it's Rush, but hey....I'm not asking for By-Tor & the Snow Dog , but there are many "accessible" Rush tunes (if we have to go there), like The Analog Kid, Red Barchetta, Limelight , heck maybe even YYZ . Rush was voted into the R&R Hall of Fame this year with an overwhelming number of votes. It's nice to see them getting their due after 39 years. If you're even remotely interested in seeing them live, I wouldn't miss their 40th anniversary tour next year, as they are sure to do one. They don't have opening acts, it's just 3 hours of Rush playing their asses off. |

parnoldo Nov 21, 2012 - 12:08 | Admittedly Rush is not for everyone and sometimes they can be hit or miss with individual songs, but I've been a fan since the first time I heard the breakdown in The Necromancer and they'll always be one of my favorite bands. I'm with fingerpin in giving it a 10 just to put some balance to all the haters. |

msymmes Nov 21, 2012 - 12:00 | A brush with fame... The drummer lives in my township. Must say I have heard that his place is bigger than mine :) Anyways - Neil Peart is an incredible human being and is a graduate of Berklee. It would be nice to meet him some day. |
neuticle Nov 21, 2012 - 11:58 | I don't get the attraction to Rush, esp. homeboy's vocals and some of the lyrics..the music doesn't bug me so much |
Jelani Sep 19, 2012 - 14:58 | I just bumped this from a seven to an eight, then thought about the feeling it gave me when I first heard it when it came out. I think I now have to bump again to 10. :-) |
Webfoot Sep 19, 2012 - 14:58 | That is some great rock drumming though. |

Euskadita Jul 18, 2012 - 16:29 | Average RP listener hates Rush, but loves Paul Simon and U2, ouch!, I prefer being an odd RP listener! |
rdo Jul 18, 2012 - 16:28 | This average rating of a 7 just pissed me off. F*ck You! |

Their newest is supposed to come out at the end of May 2012. The new one is called Clockwork Angels. From the Rush wikepedia entry: "Clockwork Angels" an "epic song" and a "multi-parted piece". < 10 > Peart said of the still in-work album in May 2011, "I intend it to be my highest achievement lyrically and drumming wise." < 11 > ... science fiction novelist Kevin J. Anderson , a long time friend of Neil Peart, announced that he would be writing a novelization of Clockwork Angels . He also revealed information about the album's concept: < 14 > In a young man's quest to follow his dreams, he is caught between the grandiose forces of order and chaos. He travels across a lavish and colorful world of steampunk and alchemy , with lost cities, pirates, anarchists, exotic carnivals, and a rigid Watchmaker who imposes precision on every aspect of daily life". Ditto to your comment. And bump on the post - this record sounds awesome. |
