Here is what I have so far. All the journeys Of this great adventure This didn't always feel that way -missing- Because I make them The best I could and that's enough to say Some days were dark I wish that I could live it all again Some nights were bright I wish that I could live it all again All the highlights Of that headlong flight Holding on with all our might -missing- I wish that I could live it all again I( or I'll) stroke the fire of the big steel wheels Steer the airship right across the stars I learned to fight, I learned to love, and learned to feel Oh i wish that i could live it all again All the treausures The gold and glory It didn't always feel that way I don't regret it I'll never forget it I wouldn't take a moment for today? Some days were dark I wish that I could live it all again Some nights were bright I wish that I could live it all again I(or I'll) stroke the fire of the big steel wheels Steer the airship right across the stars I learned to fight, I learned to love, and learned to feel Oh i wish that i could live it all again *garbled voice* the days were dark *garbled voice* and the nights were bright *garbled voice* -missing- *garbled voice* -missing- All the highlights Of that headlong flight Holding on with all our might Some days were dark I wish that I could live it all again Some nights were bright I wish that I could live it all again I(or I'll) stroke the fire of the big steel wheels Steer the airship right across the stars I learned to fight, I learned to love, and learned to feel Oh i wish that i could live it all again I(or I'll) stroke the fire of the big steel wheels Steer the airship right across the stars I learned to fight, I learned to love, and learned to feel Oh I wish that I could Oh I wish that I could live it all again While the lyrics are incomplete, thanks for posting this - it helped with my enjoyment of the song. Thank God some of the fake lyrics people posted were incorrect! This at least sounds/feels like a Rush song, and it especially sounds like it could be part of a story. I filled in some of your blanks best I could: All the journeys Of this great adventure This didn't always feel that way I wouldn't (shoot?) them Because I make them The best I could and that's enough to say Some days were dark I wish that I could live it all again Some nights were bright I wish that I could live it all again All the highlights Of that headlong flight Holding on with all our might To where I felt that (place?) I wish that I could live it all again I stoke the fire of the big steel wheels Steer the airship right across the stars I learned to fight, I learned to love, and learned to feel Oh I wish that I could live it all again All the treasures The gold and glory It didn't always feel that way I don't regret it I'll never forget it I wouldn't trade tomorrow for today Some days were dark I wish that I could live it all again Some nights were bright I wish that I could live it all again I stoke the fire of the big steel wheels Steer the airship right across the stars I learned to fight, I learned to love, and learned to feel Oh I wish that I could live it all again The days were dark And the nights were bright Hey, man I would never trade tomorrow for today All the highlights Of that headlong flight Holding on with all our might Some days were dark I wish that I could live it all again Some nights were bright I wish that I could live it all again I stoke the fire of the big steel wheels Steer the airship right across the stars I learned to fight, I learned to love, and learned to feel Oh I wish that I could live it all again I stoke the fire of the big steel wheels Steer the airship right across the stars I learned to fight, I learned to love, and learned to steal Oh I wish that I could Oh I wish that I could live it all again That seems to be MOST of the lyrics and MOSTLY CORRECT - if anyone can add any further tweaks, please do - thanks to Strangiato for doing most of the work! in the spoken part there is a Yeah at the end.... The days were dark And the nights were bright Hey man I would never trade Tomorrow for today Yeah nice catch! That "YEAH" is pretty subtle, but I hear it now that I'm listening for it!

It's not melodic. The melody is the weakest part of the song. The playing and the energy is what I initially liked about it. even though i would like to hear more melody, this is an example where a song doesn't need much melody to kick ass. sounds very organic.

Sounds like it's been cleaned up a bit: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pClcoXV5R58 Hey Goobs, I haven't posted in awhile but I have come by to check things out once in a while. I was listening to the song for like the dozenth time and in the middle of it I closed it to click on your youtube link and when I clicked on it and saw what came up I literally said "What an asshole!" with sort of a grin on my face. Goobs, you'll never change. Awwww, it was all meant in good fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

udanax Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Okay, well, I've gotta agree with Goobs on this one.... Not melodic, not progressive, no interesting use of cadence... The timbre and guitar solo are nice and it's technically challenging to play to an extent. I might be turning into a nit picky music snob now, but I'm a tonal music theory stickler and I'm going to start composing soon. I definitely know what I would personally make changes with here. It's not bad, but it's not strongly memorable either. Maybe a few more listens will change my mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
