I'm amazed how many people know about this song...when I start singing this in public, people giggle because they all remember seeing this on Much Music back in....oh....1985? Enjoy.
Secondly, this is my favourite Rush song...partially because I love the lyrics, the beat, it's filmed in my old hood, and stars my cousin Dave in the back seat of the convertible at the 1:50 mark. LOL! If you're interested, the school is Lamoreaux Collegiate at Warden and Bridletowne Circle.
Trivia - the voice saying "subdivisions" is actually Mark Daly from City TV......

Haha that is a great song. I have never heard it before. Could have something to do with me growing up in a hick town north of Toronto:D
Did not grow up with the TTC or a transit system for that matter:D

Now THAT was funny! I know all the words to "the Spadina bus" too! They used to play that video on high rotation fer cryin out loud...lol.
And man, that Rush video sure brings back some memories. Everything looks sooo dated. Gawd, I feel old. But that Geddy Lee is such a handsome feller, isn't he?
I HATE Rush. Did you ever hear Geddy Lee sing Oh Canada? BRUTAL!
