Yeah. I respect all the points Chula made about Rush as relevant to their legacy. Frown loves them, too.

Sometimes I think I'm simply too old for this joint.

We are secrets to each other Each one's life a novel No one else has read Even joined in bonds of love We're linked to one another By such slender threads We are planets to each other Drifting in our orbits To a brief eclipse Each of us a world apart Alone and yet together Like two passing ships Just between us I think it's time for us to recognize The differences we sometimes fear to show Just between us I think it's time for us to realize The spaces in between Leave room for you and I to grow We are strangers to each other Full of sliding panels An illusion show Acting well rehearsed routines Or playing from the heart? It's hard for one to know We are islands to each other Building hopeful bridges On a troubled sea Some are burned or swept away Some we would not choose But we're not always free

I agree that he's overrated as a drummer, despite the fact that I think he's amazing.

I actually think one of the great charms of Rush is that their music and lyrics are thoughtful without being pretentious. I always got the feeling they respect their fans and give them what they want in a thinking AC/DC kind of way. I know that AC/DC has stuck with a certain sound and Rush developed and went through changes but like AC/DC Rush stays in their lane. They stick to what they're good at it. You go to Rush concert; you get a Rush concert.
Is Peart overrated? By some. But they all are excellent technicians and he's a damn good drummer. Certainly the perfect drummer for Rush. |
