  • @johnparkman5980
    @johnparkman5980 Год назад +2430

    For those who don't know this song was inspired by the Toronto Airport VOR identifier which is KYYZ...Toronto Airport. Rush always flew through there as it was their home. The rhythm in the beginning of the song is morse code for YYZ. When pilots tune their NAV radio to a VOR navigation beacon, they hear the morse code for that particular site. Alex Lifeson was working on his pilot's license at the time and they heard it when they were flying. Neil and Geddy started working with that rhythm and this magical song was born. As a pilot and a Rush fan...this is amazingly cool. Now you understand the video too.🙂

    How am I so lucky, to have listened to this for the last 4 decades? I was 13 when this came out, and it's the reason (like millions of others) why I started playing drums. Now this. A tear in my eye.

      You do realise that that's exactly what someone older than you would have said about 'their' music, comparing it to Rush, and dismissing the latter? Also, I highly doubt you've heard ALL new music enough to say this is better than "any" of it.
      Why not just enjoy the song instead of using it as a vehicle to shit on music you happen not to like even though others do?

    Whilst I know the actual reason for the name of the song being the IATA code for an airport in Toronto, I always had another read on the title "YYZ".
    Being American born, but growing up in England, Z was one of those letters everyone insisted I pronounced wrong. "Zed" here, instead of Zee. Then I learned of a third, "Izzard" a more archaic form of the letter.
    In more recent years, my head bridged the gap between this third form, and "YYZ" during a discussion of whether "Zed" or "Zee" was intended. Thus, "Why-Why-izzard" or perhaps "Wizzard" (thanks Terry Pratchett) got stuck as an unofficial and personal third name for the song in my head
