| Rush – Vital Signs Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| I was watching the new documentary "Beyond The Lighted Stage" and it looks like Neil Peart is the intellectual leader, the one who is non-social and just reads a lot. He is the brain of the operation. He comes up with concepts for the lyrics and Geddy Lee & Alex Lifeson just go along for the ride and contribute what they can. They even admitted that sometimes they don't even know what the lyrics mean so I guess anybody can say what they think it means to them. I think they use the words deviate, elevate, and escalate mostly because they rhyme. However I like some of the interpretations. Rush's music is very unique and musically, rhythmically fantastic. To make those intellectual lyrics flow and convey meaning to so many people is an amazing feat and yes Rush is tremendously underrated. Very talented individuals and remarkably down to earth. While some bands focus on their image to sell records, Rush focuses on one thing: THE MUSIC and it shows. Unfortunately image means more to most people. | |
