“My City Was Gone”. The Pretenders (1982). B side of single “Back on the Chain Gang”
For a while, Chrissie Hines threatened a lawsuit over the use of their song. Rush went with ZZ Top’s “I’m bad, I’m nationwide”. Chrissie relented for some reason.
Both are fitting.
How time flies. Both are excellent songs.
Thank you! I was also wondering about the main theme song title myself. I have heard it for 27 years. Cannot imagine working while driving and not hearing it. It relaxes me to think how much Rush embodies the collective reasoning of so many, over so many years and giving voice and platform to his audience, the silent majority. God grant us Rush many more a years!!
