1482 Rush - Distant Early Warning

1482 Rush - Distant Early Warning

From: Grace Under Pressure, Year: 1984
Genre: Progressive Rock

I was thinking about this song most of the morning; it is one of the more popular Rush songs and can be heard on the radio every now and then.
This was, I believe, the second Rush song I learned to play on the bass in its entirety. I learned to play Tom Sawyer at about the same time and it was a quite a long while ago, so it actually could be the third. I've always loved the neat time signature changes and rhythmic devices used in this song, which was one of the main reasons I decided to learn to play it in the first place.

Here is the studio version on YouTube.
