New World Man
"New World Man" is a hit single from the 1982 album Signals by Canadian rock band Rush. The song was the last and most quickly composed song on the album, stemming from a suggestion by then-Rush producer Terry Brown to even out the lengths of the two sides of the cassette version. It went to #1 in Canada, where it remained for two weeks in October 1982.
Less successful in the United States, it nonetheless remains Rush's only American Top 40 hit, peaking at No. 21 on the Billboard singles chart in October and November 1982. On the Cashbox Top 100, it peaked at No. 35. It also hit No. 1 on the Billboard Top Tracks chart.
"New World Man" reached No. 42 in the United Kingdom. A remixed version later reached No. 36 in the UK in early 1983.
