Momentum
This song has not appeared on a Rotation chart, so it has no score and no receipts. The rank history below is the ledger; a score is only published once the momentum run puts it on a chart.
Why it's here
The song's lyrics originated from a poem, "Louis the Warrior," by Pye Dubois, which Neil Peart modified into a portrait of a free-spirited individualist blending boy and man. [1] Alex Lifeson's guitar solo was assembled from pieces of five separate takes rather than played straight through. [2] It was one of five Rush songs inducted into the Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame on March 28, 2010. [3]
In culture
Every place this record has lived. A solid chip states a fact and carries the citation that earns it; a dashed one is a connection somebody drew, and carries their name instead.
