There is unrest in the forest, There is trouble with the trees, For the maples want more sunlight And the oaks ignore their pleas.
The trouble with the maples, (And they're quite convinced they're right) They say the oaks are just too lofty And they grab up all the light. But the oaks can't help their feelings If they like the way they're made. And they wonder why the maples Can't be happy in their shade.
There is trouble in the forest, And the creatures all have fled, As the maples scream "Oppression!" And the oaks just shake their heads
So the maples formed a union And demanded equal rights. "The oaks are just too greedy; We will make them give us light." Now there's no more oak oppression, For they passed a noble law, And the trees are all kept equal By hatchet, axe, and saw.

yuck. how did i know that somehow? even when i was asking, i knew deep down it would be rush. well, you've won this battle, rush, but you are still far, far behind in the war.
ps - now that i know it's rush, i like it 81% less. by itself, it's cute... but as a lyric, especially as a rush lyric... no way.

Rush is a band tailor-made for the 'Everyman', in that they offer something for almost everyone. They retain a razors edge appeal to the rocker in all of us. As well, they are one of the very few progressive bands still out there actually 'progressing', making music that appeals to intelligence, wit and an introspective view on the essence of what must be the best and worst elements of Human Kind.
The songs by their very nature and message perhaps unwittingly present a form of 'Social Conscience'. They are liberally peppered with intelligent lyrics through subtle philosophies that impart logic and compassion without preaching. There are no 'you must!' positions in their music that are often found in current philosopies and belief systems. Instead they present a refreshing 'you might and you can' ideology. Optional, not dictatorial. These gifts from Neil Peart, world class percussionist and drummer.
Alex Lifeson can serve up sumptuous one-of-a-kind solos at the drop of a hat, moving then to a minimalist form of playing that perfectly carves up all the contrast and tension needed.
Geddy Lee has a voice as singular as Freddie Mercury's or Ozzie Osbourne's, he sounds like no one else. Add to that, he somehow balances the tasks of bass pedals, multiple keyboards and bass guitar. All at the same time.
Each musician holds an equal place in the band, both as performers and examples of world class playing ability. If ever a true definition of the word 'band' were needed, RUSH provides that. For as a true band of people, they have melded together into a unit greater than themselves. That is a rare thing indeed!
They have the respect of millions of musicians and non-musicians, the world 'round. Hence the Everyman...
