Jun 5: A song that needs to be played loud

There are lots of these of course...

I'm going to go for this one... turn up the volume!

Rush are the band which have perhaps appeared the most on the blog so far this year. They are about to kick off their come back tour with a new drummer which I have blogged about quite a bit already...

Kid Gloves has been interpreted as a song about growing up and leaving school, but also links with the relationship between the superpowers of the USA and Russia. We need to put on kid gloves otherwise things will escalate into nuclear war... and as long as we have a US President and a leader of Russia who are completely stable we'll be fine....



A world of indifference, heads and hearts too full
Careless of the consequence of constant push and pull
Anger got bare knuckles, anger play the fool
Anger wear a crown of thorns, reverse the golden rule
Then you learn the lesson that it's tough to be so cool
