Became an anthem and a much loved live track .
A straight no nonsense rock song with an fantastic opening and the tribute to Radio & then that section of a twist of lyrics to Simon & Garfunkel& #39;s Sound of Silence and a reggae beat ! .
The Prog rock God& #39;s had gone to the ska side

2. Freewill.
A much loved song of mine and just a perfect song, the lyrics and musicianship is just precision and then the keyboard melts into a guitar and Bass duo which takes you back to By Tor & The Snow Dog .
Absolutely brilliant.
Geddy gives that line ..

Each of us , a cell of awareness..
Bloody brilliant..
3. Jacob& #39;s Ladder .
Took me awhile to get into this one and saying that , it didn& #39;t mean I disliked then , I just struggled with the keyboards , I was all guitars back then
It& #39;s now one I always look forward too

2. Different Strings.
I know I& #39;m repeating myself but this again is another much loved song of mine and again the lyrics which were
Written by Geddy and not the maestro on the drums.
Geddy& #39;s vocals are just perfect and that simplistic guitar from Alex at the end .
Glorious stuff .
3. Natural Science.
We come to the last ,but not least and this one is my favourite Rush song .
It& #39;s just mind blowing

Neil Peart wrote some incredible lyrics , but this one .
Wow !
When I heard this , I spent many hours trying to learn the whole bloody song .
As much as Cygnus book 2 blows your mind and La Villa Strangiato really blows your socks off the musicianship on this is as Neil says
