Wow. I never paid much attention to the lyrics before!

Yup, me neither. Now I’m amazed.

Yup, me neither. Now I’m amazed.

I just re listened to the original with new ears. And honestly the Rush version is unbeatable. What a band!

Wow. I never paid much attention to the lyrics before!

Time Stand Still is spectacular. I can't say this Army chorus version did much for me but I've been mainlining the original since it was released.

So many others just like that one too.

New World Man
Subdivisions
Red Barchetta
Trees
Red Sector A (Geddy Lee's mother or grandmother was a Holocaust survivor)

to name of few favorites with lyrics that rocked me. In a later interview he said his politics have always been clear, he was a libertarian generally.

I always loved that Peart wrote largely of deeper topics than broken heart tripe or sexy booties etc.

The song "The Garden" from the last studio album Clockwork Angels has lyrics that suggest Neil Peart was thinking about his legacy. The version from the R40 tour is amazing.
