“Limelight” sits fourth on Rush’s Moving Pictures, between “YYZ” and “The Camera Eye.” The band’s album notes list the February 1981 release and track order.
That album jumps from the tight, radio-ready “Tom Sawyer” to the instrumental “YYZ,” then into “Limelight.” It is a neat example of how much ground a record can cover without losing its shape. The song is one of the Rush tracks named for this shelf.
