Guess the artist from the lyrics: Justin Bieber or Rush

[Strike 3,950]

Not gonna sully a RIP thread but there seems to be some debate regarding who the better artist is, RUSH or Justin Bieber.  So I'm going to post some lyrics.  Guess who they came from.

[Strike 3,950]

Yeah, you got that yummy, yum
That yummy, yum
That yummy, yummy
Yeah, you got that yummy, yum
That yummy, yum
That yummy, yummy

Say the word, on my way
Yeah babe, yeah babe, yeah babe
Any night, any day
Say the word, on my way
Yeah babe, yeah babe, yeah babe
In the morning or late
Say the word, on my way

[Strike 3,950]

There are those who think that life has nothing left to chance
A host of holy horrors to direct our aimless dance

A planet of play things
We dance on the strings
Of powers we cannot perceive
'The stars aren't aligned
Or the gods are malign...'
Blame is better to give than receive

[Chorus:]
You can choose a ready guide in some celestial voice
If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice
You can choose from phantom fears and kindness that can kill
I will choose a path that's clear
I will choose freewill

[Strike 3,950]

Ohhh ah
Ohhh ah
Ohhhh aaahhh

You know you love me, I know you care
Just shout whenever, and I'll be there
You are my love, you are my heart
And we will never ever ever be apart

Are we an item? Girl, quit playing
We're just friends, what are you saying?
Said there's another and looked right in my eyes
My first love broke my heart for the first time
And I was like...

Baby, baby, baby oooh
Like baby, baby, baby nooo
Like baby, baby, baby oooh
I thought you'd always be mine (mine)

Baby, baby, baby oooh
Like baby, baby, baby nooo
Like baby, baby, baby oooh
I thought you'd always be mine (mine)

[Strike 3,950]

Start a new chapter
Find what I'm after
It's changing every day
The change of a season
Is enough of a reason
To want to get away
Quiet and pensive
My thoughts apprehensive
The hours drift away
Leaving my homeland
Playing a lone hand
My life begins today

 

Fly by night, away from here
Change my life again
Fly by night, goodbye my dear
My ship isn't coming and I just can't pretend

That would be Neil, as he wrote pretty much all the lyrics.

gleefully unaware of their songwriting protocol ... they were a fockin' joke - but i will tip my hat to the skill and craftsmanship each player bought to the table - r.e.s.p.e.c.t.

As I recall he had a degree in English Literature,I remember as a sophomore in high school we had to read Kubla Kahn by Samuel Taylor Cooleridge and I let out a loud "Whoa" in class and had to explain to the teacher I had an album tied to the poem.He lets me bring it me bring it to play for the class and makes it about three minutes into Xanadu and takes it off.

Here's the poem if your not familiar with it
