Song 25 ( Rush - A Passage To Bangkok )

For song 25 of my list, I am choosing Rush's A Passage to Bangkok off of their 2112 album. It was released in '76 and comes on the album right after the 2112 rock opera. Ever since I heard this song on the radio a long time ago I really liked it, especially the strange arrangements that they put in this song.
Funny enough just like Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon/Wizard of Oz, from what I understand you can play this album along with Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory and it will match up to some extent; this song supposedly plays along with the boat ride scene.

Here is the studio version on YouTube.
