"HeadlongFlight", the first - or third - single from Rush`s 20th studio album "Clockwork
Angels",
is one of the trio's most hard-charging numbers in recent years.
"'Headlong Flight' was one of those songs that was a joy to
write and record from beginning to end," says frontman Geddy
Lee. "Alex [Lifeson] and I had blast jamming in my home studio
one day before the second leg of the Time Machine tour, and I did not
revisit that jam until a year later. Alex and I assembled the song to
be an instrumental and its original title was 'Take That Lampshade
Off Yo Head!," but once we saw the lyrics Neil [Peart] had
written, I knew that the spirit of the lyrics matched the
instrumental perfectly and it was just a matter of making them fit
and writing the melodies."
