The only girl Peart ever wrote about was Ayn Rand, and I kinda like it that way. Rush's apollonian logic nicely balances out the dionysian sex/drugs/angst trifecta that plagues most popular music.
One of the reasons I loved Nirvana so much as a kid is they weren't doing the same old "Love is this love is that" thing that I had grown so accustomed to hearing.
