Love Rush, but only Permanent Waves and onward. Not a fan of the earlier stuff.

Big Rush fan here. smile

As well as other "proggers" Yes, Genesis, Porcupine Tree and others.

Fans of Rush should check out their2 track ep release Caravan, BUTB that came out last year. Good stuff. It's a preview of sorts to new album Clockwork Angels which they will be working on this fall/winter for a spring 2012 release. It's rumored to be more in line with their more musically adventurous/proggish side. And it is a concept record. Regardless, I will be glad to have a new Rush album. cool

Fantasy is reality in the world today. But I'll keep hangin in there, that is the only way.

Timely post, I've been listening to Grace Under Pressure & Signals alot lately. "Losing it" is a very underrated song in my opinion. Beautifully melody, one that non Rush fans seems to like too.

"Losing It"

The dancer slows her frantic pace
In pain and desperation
Her aching limbs and downcast face
Aglow with perspiration

Stiff as wire, her lungs on fire
With just the briefest pause
The flooding through her memory
The echoes of old applause

She limps across the floor
And closes her bedroom door...

The writer stare with glassy eyes
Defies the empty page
His beard is white, his face is lined

And streaked with tears of rage

Thirty years ago, how the words would flow
With passion and precision
But now his mind is dark and dulled
By sickness and indecision

And he stares out the kitchen door
Where the sun will rise no more...

Some are born to move the world
To live their fantasies
But most of us just dream about
The things we'd like to be
Sadder still to watch it die
Than never to have known it
For you, the blind who once could see
The bell tolls for thee...
