Wikipedia
Freewill
Freewill is the second track on the 1980 album Permanent Waves by Canadian progressive rock band Rush. The song's music was composed by Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson, and its lyrics written by Neil Peart. In a 2016 review of Rush discography for Ultimate Classic Rock, Eduardo Rivadavia described "Freewill" as a "cerebral but remarkably radio-friendly" song. Lee has stated that the final verse of "Freewill" is at the highest part of his vocal range. The song is included in several of the band's compilation albums, including Retrospective I, The Spirit of Radio: Greatest Hits 1974–1987, Gold, and Time Stand Still: The Collection. It is now a staple of album-oriented rock stations. It was one of six songs in Rush's set for the Molson Canadian Rocks for Toronto (colloquially referred to as "SARStock").
