Blue Barchetta Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 A most serious topic! The Camera Eye is one of my favorite Rush tunes. But can anyone tell me what a "leaden sky-er" is? Geez, for the longest time, I thought Ged was singing "spire" which didn't make sense. Then I found out the word was "sky" and, well... "er?" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue J Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 THE BOAT DOESN'T STOP IN THE CITY There's a great thread here for misheard lyrics, too. I had to give that one a like here anyway, though. That's a new one, to me. Thunderheads are rumbling in a distant, overt shore... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
