Alex Lifeson's guitar solos are so expressive, and emotive too. He's just a wonderful guitar player.

14:23 Play her the video where RUSH introduced YES into the RRHOF, and where Geddy played Bass with them when they performed Roundabout, since Chris Squire had passed away... but then you'll also need to play her Rick Wakeman's stand up routine that he performed there too : )

I believe the working title of this album was 'Closer to the Heart' but near the end of recording they changed it to 'A Farewell to Kings'.

This album -- and this song especially -- is the bridge from the older hard rock era of Rush to the more expansive, proggy era. It has a foot in each camp, but you can tell they're more comfortable with the older sound and style and are still finding their way with the prog elements. But at least they're jumping in feet first and not pulling their punches. Re: did Yes ever collaborate with Rush, Geddy Lee played bass on a song at Yes' induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, plus Bill Bruford played on Neil Peart's 'Burning for Buddy' album.

The real beauty of Neil's lyrics are that there is a face-value surface story (or let's just call "meaning" to encompass all his lyrics, as all are not stories) that is easily digestible and thought provoking by the average person along with master musicians and composers (completely understandable depends one's level of intelligence combined with knowledge and experience). But there also always lies a deeper meaning that requires "reading between the lines" and philosophical and/or sociological and/or spiritual and/or self reflective/discovery to find, which also depends on the aforementioned mental capacities and life experience. It can also often provoke different interpretations of perspective that can have more than one right interpretation as intended by Neil. So you were right in what it was about to you, on your first listen where lyrics and full comprehension can be missed as you are so overwhelmed by the music and singing and there is so much to take in. If your read and contemplate on the lyrics, and read between the lines, it is true what you said, but too limited; it encompasses all leaders including historical Kings or Kingdoms, but "King" is also used in the song in reference to even modern leaders very similar conditions of oppression and deception that are becoming clear and obvious in modern times as more and more are waking up. Just compare our current world leaders and what is happening in the world around us, even in first world western Republics and Democracies. Most Rush songs aren't just as relevant today as they were back then, but much more so, with references once thought, even by Neil, to be obvious extremes, imagined or from history, to make a clear point only, have become current day truths and realities, ironically, referring to the lies, deception and violence that is rampant today. It comes down to a basic commentary on the apparent crumbling of western values, beliefs and civilization in decline. And finding the minds once again who can right the ship, like the founding father's of the United States and other great leaders in history who for a their time, made something good and great instead of just wanting to gain riches, power and control for themselves and could care less about the common people.
