Rush

Rush

Rush es una banda de hard rock y rock progresivo de origen canadiense compuesta por el bajista, teclista y vocalista Geddy Lee (cuyo verdadero nombre es Gary Lee Weinrib), el guitarrista Alex Lifeson (cuyo verdadero nombre es Alexander Zivojinovich) y el baterista Neil Peart. La banda fue fundada en septiembre de 1968, en Sarnia, Ontario, por Lifeson, el bajista y cantante Jeff Jones (reemplazado un mes después por Lee) y el baterista John Rutsey. Grabaron su primer álbum a principios de 1974 y posteriormente, en julio de 1974, Peart reemplazó a Rutsey en la batería, para así completar la formación actual. Desde entonces, Rush, aún habiendo experimentado con toda clase de tendencias musicales dentro del rock, sigue manteniendo vigencia como uno de los referentes legendarios del género. Rush ha sido merecedor del Premio Juno (equivalente canadiense de los Grammy) en varias ocasiones. Además, Lee, Lifeson, y Peart han sido condecorados con la Orden de Canadá, en el grado de Oficiales.

Letra de Roll The Bones (R30 Live Version)
Well, you can stake that claim --
Good work is the key to good fortune
Winners take that praise
Losers seldom take that blame
If they don't take that game
And sometimes the winner takes nothing
We draw our own designs
But fortune has to make that frame

We go out in the world and take our chances
Fate is just the weight of circumstances
That's the way that lady luck dances
Roll the bones

Why are we here?
Because we're here
Roll the bones, roll the bones
Why does it happen?
Because it happens
Roll the bones, roll the bones

Faith is cold as ice --
Why are little ones born only to suffer
For the want of immunity
Or a bowl of rice?
Well, who would hold a price
On the heads of the innocent children
If there's some immortal power
To control the dice?

We come into the world to take our chances
Fate is just the weight of circumstances
That's the way that lady luck dances
Roll the bones, roll the bones

Why are we here?
Because we're here
Roll the bones, roll the bones
Why does it happen?
Because it happens
Roll the bones, roll the bones

Why are we here?
Because we're here
Roll the bones, roll the bones
Why does it happen?
Because it happens
Roll the bones, roll the bones

Jack -- relax.
Get busy with the facts.
No zodiacs or almanacs,
No maniacs in polyester slacks.
Just the facts.
Gonna kick some gluteus max.
It's a parallax -- you dig?
You move around
The small gets big. It's a rig.
It's action -- reaction --
Random interaction.
So who's afraid
Of a little abstraction?
Can't get no satisfaction
From the facts?
Better run, homeboy --
A fact's a fact
From Nome to Rome boy.

What's the deal? Spin the wheel.
If the dice are hot -- take a shot.
Play your cards. Show us what you got --
What you're holding.
If the cards are cold,
Don't go folding.
Lady luck is golden;
She favors the bold. That's cold.
Stop throwing stones --
The night has a thousand saxophones.
So get out there and rock,
And roll the bones.
Get busy!

Roll the bones

Why are we here?
Because we're here
Roll the bones, roll the bones
Why does it happen?
Because it happens
Roll the bones, roll the bones

Why are we here?
Because we're here
Roll the bones, roll the bones
Why does it happen?
Because it happens
Roll the bones, roll the bones

Why are we here?
Because we're here
Roll the bones, roll the bones
Why does it happen?
Because it happens
Roll the bones, roll the bones

Why are we here?
Because we're here
Roll the bones, roll the bones
Why does it happen?
Because it happens
Roll the bones, roll the bones
