Rush (band)
Rush was a Canadian rock band formed in 1968 in Toronto, that was comprised primarily of Geddy Lee (bass, vocals), Alex Lifeson (guitar), and Neil Peart (drums, percussion, lyricist). The band formed in Toronto in 1968 by Lifeson, drummer John Rutsey, and bass guitarist/vocalist Jeff Jones, who was immediately replaced by Lee.

Rush achieved commercial success in the 1970s with '' Fly by Night'' (1975), '' 2112'' (1976), ''A Farewell to Kings'' (1977) and '' Hemispheres'' (1978). The band's popularity continued throughout the 1980s and 1990s, with albums charting highly in Canada, the US and the UK, including '' Permanent Waves'' (1980), '' Moving Pictures'' (1981) ...

Lawrencetown Beach: Pottersfield Press, 1996). In the early 1990s, Peart put words to the title. The song is written in the form of a pantoum. See also *List of R ...

Songs Written By Neil Peart
A song is a musical composition intended to be performed by the human voice. This is often done at distinct and fixed pitches (melodies) using patterns of sound and silence. Songs contain various forms, such as those including the repetition and variation of sections. Written words created specifically for music, or for which music is specifically created, are called lyrics. If a pre-existing poem is set to composed music in classical music it is an art song. Songs that are sung on repeated pitches without distinct contours and patterns that rise and fall are called chants. Songs composed in a simple style that are learned informally "by ear" are often referred to as folk songs. Songs that are composed for professional singers who sell their recordings or live shows to the mass market are called popular songs. These songs, which have broad appeal, are often composed by professional songwriters, composers, and lyricists. Art songs are composed by trained classical composers fo ...

Far Cry (Rush Song)
"Far Cry" is a song by the Canadian progressive rock band Rush. It was released as the first single from their 2007 album ''Snakes & Arrows''. It was released to radio on March 12, 2007, then saw a digital release four days later. The song peaked at number 22 on the ''Billboard'' Mainstream Rock Tracks chart. Guitarist Alex Lifeson said about the song: "It was almost like we already knew the song when we wrote it. We just played it. And that was realy 'sic''cool. That doesn’t happen very often. We were high-fiving and the whole thing, because it’s a relief when something like that happens, for sure." Background The song evolved from a studio jam session between Alex Lifeson and Geddy Lee. Neil Peart unexpectedly left lyrics he had just finished on the table with the chorus highlighted. Lee began singing the chorus along with a section of the jam and, according to him, it seemed to fit. "Far Cry" was played on every tour following its release in 2007 (Snakes & Arrows Tour, Ti ...
