Rush Lyrics
In true 1969 fashion, Alex Lifeson and Geddy Lee named
their act The Rush so as to fit into the rock gentry led by
The Who, The Beatles and The Rolling Stones. Their home
base was in Sarnia, Ontario with original drummer John
Rutsey playing mostly cover tunes by Led Zeppelin, Iron
Butterfly and Cream. Soon they would make their way to the
lights of Toronto and set up residence at such bars as The
Gasworks, The Running Pump and the old Abbey Road Pub.
A signing to Ray Danniels' fledgling SRO Productions led to
their first, More...

Review about Rush songs
Over thinking | Reviewer: Minister
------ About the song The Trees performed by RushI think many are way over thinking this. It is simply about the maples ( they could be any group(s) ) blaming the oaks ( the wealthy & powerful ) for their oppression and not seeing the real problem that is their ignorance and they start having their tantrums and eventually the oaks and maples all get cut down because they are too short sighted to be happy with what they have
So true of the modern post women's lib movement female | Reviewer: Another Guy
------ About the song Cold Fire performed by RushThis song reminds me that very few women nowadays live up to the definition of a lifesaver or helper any longer. The world has twisted their perception through CIA program of women's lib just to gain a larger income tax base and more business for the government with all the things that go along with broken families. Maybe it was time anyhow for females to fly the coo coo's nest, it seemed as men were flying it since world war I. Pretty messed up situation we're in, and love the perception Rush had on this song, it really has come of age.
BU2B- Be Yourself to be..... | Reviewer: Hans
------ About the song BU2B performed by RushI sense a distinct level of angst and confusion in the music, alot more than in the lyrics for whats being said here. As emotional creatures, it's hard to see past the range of human experience to see the bigger picture going on in the world and in the universe.
Socialism does not equal to communism | Reviewer: mickey
------ About the song The Trees performed by RushI really much like this song, and it's story. I am great fan of mr. Peart's lyrics, and I also know his interest in Rand's writings, though I also think that he is not agreeing it totally. The liberal capitalism shall never lead to freedom, or fullfilment of individual free will, which is more the basics of Peart's writings. (I consider Rand as a "wannabe" philosopher who created own philosophy to redeem her neglets over others!) This song is far more wider than the stupid capitalism vs. communism. It is an analysis over all human counteracts, political, scientifical, individual etc. So it may be even a story of gay community against the discrimational laws, or racial struggle.
I am somewhat disappointed that every time - especially Americans - it is spoken about socialism, it is considered to be negative and something to eneminized. But socialism is not same than the communism. Communism is totalitaristic dictatorship thet uses socialistic ideal for its own reasoning. Similarily the totally liberal capitalism is more equal to communism, because it is also an utopia, only achievable by force. Socialism is the ideal of economic equality, and thought how the GDP should be divided to nation so that all the members of the society can have a life worth living for. Socialism is the ground of the welfare in Nordic countries (Sweden, Finland, Danmark and NATO- member Norway). Also Germany, previously the West-Germany, France, Belgium etc. has a very socialistic influences in their legislations. It can be seen for instance in the status of social democratic parties in each country's political map. Socialism does not mean that rich become poor, or that entrepreneuers are not worthy, but it means that also they should be responsible for the welfare of the community, and that worker also is justified to benefit of the company's succes he/she is working for. And it can be seen that European socialism has produced a very strong economy, where poverty is less, and healthcare for everybody, not only for those that can afford it.
Anyhow, song is great.
Huh? | Reviewer: jdonahue
------ About the song Show Don't Tell performed by RushWow, this song has nothing to do with Jesus. Hey I love the Jesus message too, but what is written here is nonsense. This song refers to the state of society, not of religion. But one can argue they are one in the same.
choice | Reviewer: stacey
------ About the song Freewill performed by RushThis song served as a reminder to me that i must make my own choices or they will inevitably be made for me. By choosing not to decide, that is still making a choicce, but one which leads to no action on my part. I must choose to believe in my god each day and make the effort and by doing so, i am exercising the free will he gave me. Stacey
The Pass | Reviewer: David
------ About the song The Pass performed by RushThis song has touched me for many years and always will. It is a song about hope even in the darkest of circumstances. It relates to everyone although it is aimed at teenagers up front. We all need to Turn Around and look at the stars sometimes to steer us away from a dark place we may be going through in our life. Rush will always be the greatest band (of beautiful human beings) ever to me. This is only one of many songs that tell an important message.
Rush fan! | Reviewer: Anonymous
------ About the song Lakeside Park performed by Rush"Yes James. This band is childish. You are a better musician than them. I admire you. "
Is it enough for you or should I praise you again?
You have no right to talk bad about them.
No Meaning? | Reviewer: Don
------ About the song Anagram (for Mongo) performed by RushThis song is loaded with meaning. Just one example.
Image just a eyeless game
Think about it, maintaining a image with people requires one to appear, with the eye, or is it "I", meaning ones self is at the center of maintaining a Image, and he is declaring it a self centered game.
Rush Fan Forever | Reviewer: Tammy
------ About the song Lakeside Park performed by RushAs a 30 year fan this is not one of my favorite Rush songs, but touching and nostalgic enough that when I found myself on a road trip from Maryland to Toronto, I swung through St. Catharines. Port Dalhousie is charming. I did what Neil probably intends for the listener to do when he writes lyrics..I could picture the scene. Unfortunately it was the end of October and the carousel was closed!
