Geddy Lee is on the cover of the December issue of Britain's
Classic Rock magazine. The bulk of the feature includes Geddy's memories of the making of
Moving Pictures, but he also briefly discusses the current Time Machine tour and playing
Moving Pictures live in its entirety. For this long time fan of "The Camera Eye", I was pleased to see Geddy discuss the track at length:
"'The Camera Eye' was the last really epic song we wrote. It's 11 minutes long. At the time, we really didn't appreciate it. Back then we though it was too long and repetitive. We didn't understand the mood it generated...it was a song we never thought worked. But the way we revamped it made this come alive. One thing the tour did for us was to make us aware of how good 'The Camera Eye' always was. I'm so glad we've become friends with it again."
