Other Favorites:

For You

Of A Lifetime, On A Saturday Night, Look Into The Future, I'm Gonna Leave You (The one that sounds like Kansas "Carry On Way Ward Son"), Space Man, People, Nickel And Dime

Very underated and unappreciated jazz-rock-progressive music. They had to change in order to be commercially sucessful but I'd like to hear more songs like the first three albums. I can't wait until they remaster these.

I'd love to see the early stuff remastered, but I'm not holding my breath. :(

Hustler?! Lyrics by Aynsley

Did they do that last year?

The last line is

Lock up your women like you know you should

Hustler lyrics, pretty funny

I get beside women all men desire,
Crazy with passion I'll never be tired,
Money's no good to me 'cause lovin's my game,
I don't need no trouble and I'll show you no pain.
I move like a lover, so silent and swift,
Screamin' women love me, just can't resist
I can't be bought, your payoff's no good,
So lock up your women, like you know you should.

It really does sound like they did, I'm just wondering why they would wait four years to use that rift, releasing album's every year and tour to support them I just don't see where Rush would have time to listen to a Journey record that wasn't that popular and copy to rift. I suspect it was like what George Harrison did with "My Sweet Lord"-- unintentionally plagihearized the song. Maybe I'm wrong and they consciously did. I mean Rush was already established and known and the album that song ended up on "Moving Pictures" that was their breakthrough album. I just don't see the point of copying that song. Its not like the couldn't write hits.
