Someone I know helped Rush (the band) out...when she worked for a Cle. radio station, she suggested they start to play this Canadian band. The woman--a liberal-- has since been thanked by Rush, the band, for helping to "break" them in America.
The song is also used on Fox Sports Radio's JT The Brick show (syndicated by Clear Channel/Premiere). Host John Tournour is a conservative (his sports flash reader, Tom Looney, is a liberal). After the opening segment, JT introduced THE LONG TIME VOICE! THE ICONIC VOICE of Tom Looney, and they start to play Spirit of Radio. Begin the day with a friendly voice, a companion unobtrusive...
I think he should just use classical music and tell the rest of them to bite it on royalties.
This is more Media Matters type generated controversy.
Rush does NOT use background music behind his discussions.
There was no Rush song parody so it could not have been playing "as he ranted".
Same with Peter Gabriel.
These di(ckheads need to realize they are being spoonfed liberal hate of Rush Limbaugh.
Lefties hate Rush's (the band's) music too. Especially the politics of it.
Did Fishbone publicly demand that Jimmy Fallon remove all of their music from his tv show after he used “Lyin’ Ass Bitch” to introduce Michelle Bachmann to the stage?
Their clueless Leftist crybaby whining would be perfectly delivered by the grating, unlistenable “singing” voice of Geddy Lee.
This is so simple and, I believe, ElRushbo proved it with The Pretenders.
Offer them money to play their music. If they decline, offer them more. There comes a point when their agent tells the artist to “take the money” because the agents cut is too lucrative to ignore.
The artist is manipulated by the agent...capitalism!
Geddy Lee: Poster child for condoms.
Screw ‘em, play Johnny Horton and George Jones and Conway Twitty in place.Libs hate country music anyway.

How does the mechanical license enter in to the equation? Any one know? I like the idea of Rush only using conservative musicians/performers songs. There are a lot of good ones out there.
Rush Limbaugh can use ANY of my music ANY time he wants. It’s not rock and roll - and no one has ever heard of me, but....it’s an open offer.
Just in case: http://www.kandkband.com ;-)
Why not use Ethel Merman?! She’s loud, appropriately bombastic and too dead to protest!
Public domain and copyright. just keep paying the ungrateful putz Rush .
I always thought that Getty Lee sucked. And for this, they can pound sand.
They can’t dictate who he plays, and doesn’t play, on his show as many others have found out through out the years.

I am with them[Gabrel and the band called Rush]. He should not have been using the people that hates him work product. Hank williams Jr., Conway Twitty,Johnny Cash and plenty other Country Music stars would have been better.
Pfffft.
RUSH = music for 45-year-old virgins.
