Name that tune.

Help me identify the song at the end of the new Juno commercial.

Trying to figure it out is driving me nuts. The song plays over the last 5 seconds of the commercial, and sounds a little like Rush or someone similar. I checked my best guesses for the audible lyrics with no luck. As far as I can tell it's not on the movie soundtrack. Here's a link to the audio of the commercial:

Any help would be much appreciated!

I fail to hear the Rush connection.
Anyway, Adtunes.com via Google says it's "Goodbye Mister A" by the Hoosiers.

In case it comes up, the first melody that they use in that trailer is from The Boy Least Likely To's "Be Gentle With Me"

Goodbye Mr. A sounds a lot like ELO's Mr. Blue Sky. It drove me crazy until someone else figured it out for me.

Thank you! (As for the Rush connection, I don't get it from the whole song, but from that little snippet the singer reminded me of Geddy Lee)
