Tab Discussion, Comments, and Critiques


No Picture adam Rhythm Player	#1 by adam gold at Jun 8, 2006 at 2:29 AM EST
	The intro is 10/8, not 5/4. I always thought it stood for something. You and Your Zucchini Yes, a Yiddish Zebra Yowzers, You're Zany etc., etc.

No Picture Samer Average	#2 by Samer Zouein at Jun 8, 2006 at 7:42 AM EST
	Its also a great song to drive too, and just rock out.

No Picture zakk Wanna Be	#3 by zakk at Jul 20, 2006 at 6:25 PM EST
	and yyz is the call letters for an airport in toronto

No Picture got floyd? Average	#4 by got floyd? at Jul 24, 2006 at 2:41 PM EST
	As Neil Peart, his highness, the greatest fucking drum soloist in the fucking world (he's great with the band too but so are alot of drummers. Not many drummers can keep a solo going for 40 minutes and keep the audience INTRESTED. I think him and John Bohnam are the best at that and he's better. Plus, John's dead and Neil's alive.) himself said, the intro 5/4 rhythm, is morse code for YYZ which is the travel code for Toronto, the hometown of the band, where they grew up (althought Geddy Lee is the only one who was born in Toronto) and I am god damn proud to live in this great city (I live in toronto, around where Geddy lived. In fact, I know where he went to school he went to Newtonbrooke Secondary School which isn't too far from me. To finish off, a quote from Neil Peart: It's always a happy day when YYZ appears on our luggage tags! Neil Peart, greatest drummer, most insightful lyricist, quite the accentric writer, and a very mysterious man..To me because I don't know him...bow down.

No Picture Nick Average	#5 by Nick Meyer at Aug 29, 2006 at 6:32 AM EST
	why did lucky19 put this on here??? honestly its a great song, but theres no freakin lyrics! may as well put the drum solo on here too

No Picture Link Average	#6 by Link at Sep 19, 2006 at 8:00 AM EST
	Someone told me YYZ stood for "Yellow yellow zebra." rofl.

No Picture Black Rainbow Professional	#7 by Black Rainbow at Nov 8, 2006 at 3:32 AM EST

No Picture The Masta The Muther F*ing Masta!	#8 by The Masta at Apr 5, 2007 at 4:24 PM EST
	it is an amazing song though

No Picture bob Average	#9 by bob whyte at May 7, 2007 at 9:25 PM EST
	Yes, inspired because of the number of times that Rush went through YYZ (Toronto Pearson International) airport.

No Picture Micky Wanna Be	#10 by Micky Robson at May 29, 2007 at 12:07 PM EST
	for the three fans who dont know, the drum plays YYZ in morse code... figgered id mention that for others benefit.

No Picture Alex Average	#11 by Alex Moore at Jun 3, 2007 at 8:52 PM EST
	who would have ever thought an instrumental could be such a classic? Alex Lifeson rocks!

No Picture Bill Lead Player	#12 by Bill at Aug 15, 2007 at 5:43 PM EST
	That made me laugh a lot. =] Not much else to say. It's already been said.

No Picture billy Average	#13 by billy murchison at Sep 1, 2007 at 7:44 PM EST
	Rush is Gods gift to music. And this song is Rush's gift to people.

No Picture Nick Wanna Be	#14 by Nick Lugo at Sep 24, 2007 at 12:41 PM EST
	YYZ is the Greatest Song ever
