Queslington Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 Since BU2B has been re-recorded for the album, I sure hope the boys change the official title to "Brought Up to Believe". Anyone else think 'BU2B' is kinda lame? love the song, by the way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of goes with the bands dedication to reflecting what's going on around them, and lots of bands are using shorthand for titles now. Plus I also look at it like it has an alternate title this way, "Be You To Be". Besides, Geddy was the one that suggested this title to Neil, so you'll have to take it up with him.

snowdog2112 Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 I guess I'm not convinced yet that they've definitely been re-recorded. Until then this is all a moot point to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gilbertk Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 I think BU2B came from a studio shortening. When saving lots of recordings and takes, and writing out all the titles on whiteboards or whatever, you don't want to write "Brought Up to Believe" over and over, it may not even fit everywhere. BU2B was probably the shorthand for it, and Geddy thought it would be funny or clever to make that the title. I have a feeling that on the album the track will be called Brought Up to Believe... Just a feeling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USB Connector Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 I hope they change it to Brought up to Believe on the actual album. Honestly, the name BU2B is something 2-bit pop artists do to attract the hipster crowd. I love the song but seeing the written title makes me twitch a little. It's the sad reality of my generation that was raised with computers and this terrible shorthand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danielmclark Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 Nah, you guys are all missing the point about the song title. They only called it "Brought Up to Believe" because they were throwing you a bone. For the full album release, they are keeping it as "BU2B" and dropping the parenthetical. But that's not all. I've got it on good authority that "Caravan" has been retitled "CARAV4N". Also, the news about "Headlong Flight"? Wrong. "HEDLONGFL1TELOL" is the full name of the album track. Personally, I'm not looking forward to this album anymore. And you know I'm telling the truth because April Fool's Day ended 3 minutes ago in my time zone.

JohnnyBlaze Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 It's just a song title so I don't care either way. If they changed the title Natural Science to NS, the actual musical & lyrical content wouldn't change so what does it matter? Time after time we lose sight of the way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But wouldn't it be silly if Natural Science was actually named Pappy's Poopy Diaper instead? Would that change the song? Nope. Same great song, but with a shitty title, pun ENTIRELY instended. And I think that "text lingo" shit is just a way of dumbing it down or sounding like Prince. What's next for Rush, a song called C U 2nite, K? Wouldn't that make you throw up a bit in your mouth? Song is most important, but that doesn't mean everything else means nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
