Every great love song ever written is mainly about apologizing for the year 2004 as we all know. And I’m not even sure if The Rush qualifies as a love song in the more traditional sense. It is in fact about love but more about the deterioration of that love crumbling under (among other things) the velocity at which it is demanded. There’s an oddly perfect combination between the seemingly forward motion of the beat and the subject matter being addressed. As the song and beat progress you can almost witness the dwindling hope of the relationship at hand. This coupled with an immensely catchy chorus makes for an incredibly enjoyable listen.
