《Halo Effect》是加拿大前衛搖滾樂隊Rush於2012年創作的概念專輯《Clockwork Angels》收錄曲目，由鼓手Neil Peart作詞，吉他手Alex Lifeson與貝斯手Geddy Lee共同作曲，Nick Raskulinecz擔任製作人。歌曲延續樂隊融合科幻敘事與哲學思辨的創作風格，作為專輯第六首曲目以3分13秒時長呈現。
作品通過主人公對青春時期認知偏差的反思，以反覆出現的"Fool that I was"為情感線索，剖析將他人理想化為"足生雙翼的女神"的自我欺騙過程。歌詞運用隱喻性意象與循環式結構，展現認知覺醒與情感挫敗的辯證關係，折射出成長過程中人性認知局限的深層命題。該曲在2013年《Clockwork Angels Tour》巡演中常與吉他獨奏《Peke's Repose》串聯演繹，並收錄于樂隊多部現場專輯。

歌曲歌詞
What did I see
Fool that I was
A goddess with wings on her heels
All my illusions
Projected on her
The ideal that I wanted to see
What did I know
Fool that I was
Little by little I learned
My friends were dismayed
To see me betrayed
But they knew they could never tell me
What did I care
Fool that I was
Little by little I burned
Maybe sometimes
There might be a flaw
But how pretty the picture was back then
What did I do
Fool that I was
To profit from youthful mistakes
It's shameful to tell
How often I fell
In love with illusions again
What did I do
The fool that I was
To profit from youthful mistakes
So shameful to tell
Just how often I fell
In love with illusions again
A goddess with wings on her heels
