Have You Ever Googled “Whiter Shade of Pale” Lyrics?<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

RUSH:  That\u2019s the song about vestal virgins, Procol Harum, Whiter Shade of Pale, 1967.  One-hit wonders, this group.  (interruption) Whiter Shade of Pale?  What do you mean, what was it about?  You know what you can do?  Google has a new feature.  You Google “Whiter Shade of Pale lyrics,” and you\u2019ll get \u2019em.  Google it find out.  I don\u2019t know.  I have never listened to lyrics of songs. <\/p>\n

When I was a deejay, you know what I did?  I shouldn\u2019t admit this.  You know, the organ is a major instrument in the song.  My Sunday radio program in my hometown always started when church services on Sunday ended and I always made sure Whiter Shade of Pale was the first song played right after church service, which is broadcast live so that the listeners would think that the church service was ongoing.  You know, just to toy with \u2019em.  <\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH:  If you want to know the answer to your question, the song a Whiter Shade of Pale was actually about a Paler Shade of Blue.  You ought to see the other side of the glass trying to figure that out.  No, actually, what\u2019s more interesting than what the song\u2019s about is the name of the group, Procol Harum.  “What the hell\u2019s Procol Harum?”  Well, that I can tell you.  Procol Harum…  For what it\u2019s worth, the group Procol Harum was named after one of the members of the band\u2019s cat\u2019s name, its official breeding name, the cat\u2019s Cat Fancy name.<\/p>\n
