No Picture J Rhythm Player	#1 by J Stew at Mar 27, 1995 at 12:00 PM EST
	Definitely a great track. I love those background synthesizers with the strong beat of the drums and percussive bass line.... I can imagine this music video...seeing the band walking out of their dressing room with Geddy wearing sunglasses all walking toward the state in a triangle, with that serious-looking face that shows "we mean business" - something you might see in a crime drama flick. The shot being in black and white, and in slow motion.. Wonderful song - I just think the chorus doesn't fit the rest of the song. But still - magnificent!
