  1. I enjoy his Test For Echo vocals best. He seemed to find that happy medium where it's still Geddy's unmistakable voice, but at a more midrange, contemporary level with that 90s rock feel.

     

    Hard to describe but just listen to the ending of "The Color of Right." That final "change the color of ri-iii-ight" is one of my favorite Geddy Lee moments.

  2. I wish the lyrics were "The pools of poison, the scarlet mist / that spill over into rage" in one chorus and then "billowing into rage in another." That way he could play off both the spilling pools and billowing mist while keeping the rhyme scheme intact. Shame it's just "spill over" both times.
  3. to quote Geddy Lee's Snakes & Arrows tour shirt, blah blah blah. This is the same generic regurgitated garbage I've heard countless times before about Rush. The best response is to live well and continue loving to do what you do, and the band has certainly done that. They are above the fray...

    If it is, I don't see a more fitting song than the garden to end their career.

    Ouch...just remembered this aspect. Not having them go out on a rocking note would be a tough pill to swallow for me.

  5. The creativity and physical energy tank is almost empty at this point, but I think they've got just enough left in there for one more.

  7. Signals. To me, that album speaks to the advent of technology and its place within the broader context of human communication and relations, from our days as bright-eyed analog kids to cynical digital men.

     

    So it's a double meaning, because not only do devices give off "signals," but so do people every day with their words, body language, and actions.

     

    Signals also gets my vote for coolest album cover. Love the random dalmation and hydrant.
