"Great song from a great album. Easily one of my top 10 favorite albums (Moving Pictures.) Limelight, Witch Hunt, Vital Signs and of course, Tom Sawyer."

Don't forget The Camera Eye, great album, was listening to it this morning on the way to work. Apparently they don't make musicians like Neil, Geddy, and Alex anymore by the sad state of music today. With the exception of Dream Theater.

Never has there been a band made up of musicians so at the top of their respective crafts. Geddy's easily a top-5 bassist of all time. Neil's second -- maybe -- only to Keith Moon as a drummer, and I've always thought Alex was a very underrated guitarist.

I'm pretty sure Neil wrote all the lyrics -- something you don't see from drummers. I'm told he's an Objectivist.

Exactly. These three guys have more musical talent than all of the "boy bands" of the last decade combined.

You should give Clutch a listen as well Black Label Society.
