laughedatbytime Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 I have to steel myself to listen to The Garden so I don't fall apart. I rarely listen to the song for that reason. But, that's another one. It's a measure of a life.... (I think that's what he's singing, hard for me to tell) And the last time Geddy sings in the fullness of time, a garden to nurture and protect kills me. Ah, yes, The Garden.... the great divider of TRF. I love it, likely for the same reasons you do. The first time I heard it and really listened to it, I knew Neil was coming to the end of his time in the band.... and I understood why. Most of us here who are long in the tooth relate to that song. And while I know it was Neil's words, I think both Alex and Geddy could equally relate to that song given their station in life. But, yeah, that song, and Geddy's interpretation, speak to me. As I grow older I realize my legacy, if I have one, is not in material possessions or experiences, but it whatever good I put into the world for others.I love the Garden too. If Sheldon hates a song that much it's gotta have something going for it! Seriously, though, I do love it. Every time I think of my father-in-law I think of the Garden. The measure of a life is a measure of love and respect... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grasbo Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 (edited) A great thread.On the mellow side Ged's voice on Tears,Avaidable Light,The Sphere,Presto.Something For Nothing for pure out and out blast but for my money Red Barchetta'Suddenly across the mountainside' and Countdown'With the eyes of the world,we stare'.His delivery on these two parts always get me looking to the heavens!

Fridge Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 We are planets to each otherDrifting in our orbitsTo a brief eclipseEach of us a world apartAlone and yet togetherLike two passing ships Just between usI think it's time for us to recognizeThe differences we sometimes feared to showJust between usI think it's time for us to realizeThe spaces in betweenLeave roomFor you and I to grow 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Digital Dad Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 We hold beliefs as a consolationA way to take us out of ourselves Meditation or medication A comfort or a promised reward... This may be the definitive statement Peart has made in the last 25 years or so. Windows and Snakes are, in my opinion the peak of the union of Geds vox and Neils words.
