    Funny, when you said it sounded like 80's I laughed because I saw them on this tour and would have bet it was like 95 or so. But nope, released in 91 so you were pretty close.
    This isnt just one of my favorite Rush songs, its one of my favorites by any band, ever. However it is music stimulates your brain and makes you go "YEAH!", this one mashes down on all the correct brain cells for me. There are bands that have sold countless more records than Rush that just never do that for me. I listen, I appreciate all the work and the musicianship, I see the twinkle in someone else's eyes when they do and I know how they feel.
    Thanks to Brian for the suggestion, and thanks to SAD for the reaction. Always a pleasure. Keep it up!!!

      You're welcome :) This is one of my "top ten song" without any condition to being Rush, or otherwise as well. This takes the typical easy listening/"Yacht Rock"/Adult Contemporary vibe to atmospheric levels and blew it out of the solar system for me with just that single transition alone that just leaves a soothing feeling washing over you with Alex's clean tone. I love harder Rush too, but until you've heard this song and/or album and period of Rush, you really haven't heard Rush!

    Personally for me Roll The Bones is my favorite Rush album, it came later in their career and brought them back up to platinum selling status again after a couple of albums that only went gold. Check out the first track Dreamline and the second title track Roll The Bones. The album is an easy listen for me from start to finish and that is why I like it so much.

    I met my soulmate and immediately thought of the lines "I don't believe in the stars or the planets..." since I really don't believe in anything supernatural. But when you meet that one person, despite your differences and life events, it hits like a freight train. And the transition in this song is that perfect musical representation of that one moment; go through your life, living day to day, same routine and then one day, at one moment in time, everything comes to a stop when you meet them.
    Rush maintained a certain "conceptualness" to their albums despite not going full bore into the Prog element again until their final album. This album is "Roll the Bones", so.. take a chance, roil the dice. All of the songs on it follow that theme. The one before it, Presto, was about illusions. The one after this Counterparts, was about gender and sexual dynamics. Just by their theme, Rush was still doing Prog Rock, even when it sounded nothing like it!
    Anyway... thanks for doing the song :) When you get up to 1984 and beyond, you really can't go wrong with Geddy's tone, but radio stations and die hard fans will only ever tell you to listen to anything before 1982, so you'd never know there was an entire 30+ year period where Rush doesn't sound like the stereotypical Rush.

    Wow, that's a deep cut. Not one of my favourite songs of theirs but there's still interesting stuff in there. Also a deep Canadian cut with the Michael J Fox reference... Geddy's voice did mellow out over the years, so the later into the 80s (and beyond) you get into RUSH's discography the happier you will be. I think you guys would appreciate their song Jacob's Ladder. It's very moody. Not fully instrumental, but there isn't a lot of singing, and Geddy isn't using his higher ranges when he does.

    Don't make me come down there. Grrrrrrr. And Neil was ALL ours. Okay, all of ours, but he was mos def one of us, a Canuck, as well as a world citizen, New World Man.
    I thought this might be one I didn't know off their covers album, that's how unexpected it was. Wondered who TF could've originated it?! Maybe after one of Neil's shattering losses? Reading comments, evidently not, this was before those tragedies. The line about "making it last" only adds poignancy in retrospect.
    Love the atmospherics, retro feel, uncharacteristic simplicity in any case. Very direct for them. Nice wind-out toward the end, more familiar, stretching the fingies and toze. I would've guessed later period, in any event and been wrong. Just wrong . ;>D
    I couldn't hack Gary/Geddy's vocals for years either, 'til prob'ly 'Spirit of Radio', which I liked a lot, in part 'coz it was about my favourite radio station. Also it kicks several kinds of ass. Then in '81, a housemate brought 'Moving Pictures' home and put it on while I was already jamming in the living room. Played along best I could about a side and a half. Pretty fun. The kid was impressed. Either the running order was different or he put on Side 2 first, coz I took a break during 'YYZ'.

    Actually life is like a tetris game..You have six doors or choices at any given time...If you choose the wrong lane in tetris OR LIFE six times you will find yourself dead in a back alley.....Some who make bad decisions somehow find themselves in death alley where great misfortune can prevail...
    It can be like a million doorways if we consider life like a party in a big house we will call''labyrinth''...If you enter one door and then enter one of the six doors in that room we will find ourselves lost...So unless you can swim in the deep end you will get lost in life's labyrinth..
    Syd Barrett said''a movement is accomplished in six stages and the seventh brings return.''
    That is why success favours the brave...If you take the correct choices then ''return'' comes.
    Was that a ''RUSH'' song...I don't get what he is saying..We can find someone to love...What ''Mills AND bOONE'' love..We can love everybody...Zappa once said''LOVE'' was a mere attainment...A plateau...It is after that what you do with it that is important...It is not the highest thing..It is mere.
    Is this Rush's song when they want to get a groupie from the crowd...A lot of bands have love song for that purpose.....The girls love a SNAG.
    A movement is accomplished in six stages
    And the seventh brings return.
    The seven is the number of the young light
    It forms when darkness is increased by one.
    Change returns success
    Going and coming without error.
    Action brings good fortune.
    Sunset. SYD BARRETT
