Audience Sings Closer to the Heart to Geddy Lee
Geddy was surprised by a brief rendition of Closer to the Heart by the Glasgow audience during his stop in Scotland for his 'My Effin' Life In Conversation' tour. Phill Jupitus was the host that evening (also shown in the video).

Rush fans are the absolute fucking best
How beautiful. How exquisite. Way to show us how it's done, Glasgow.
G e d d y loves his fans just as much as we love him
Good call Glasgow! That was really warm and nice. He deserved it.
Two big thumbs up for the FANS in Glasgow. 👍👍
Made this Canuck cry. It was a beautiful moment from Exit... Stage Left revisited. Effin' Glaswegians. Effin' beautiful people

I was in the Glasgow Apollo when closer was recorded. Saw Rush there 77,78,79 & 80 then followed them when they stopped playing the Apollo & moved to ingilston
You Glasgow folks are awesome. Much love from Canada 🇨🇦🍁
Gave this Canuck chick CHILLS. Way to go Glasgow...thank you for honoring one of our national treasures. 😊❤

Reflect it* but close 😂
Absolutely brilliant! Nice job Glasgow.
They’re the most humble and honest people, sure do miss Mr Peart though miss him terribly

me too, he set a high benchmark and opened my mind for me when I was really really young..... left a void that can never be filled by anyone else.
Thank you Geddy Lee and Rush for 40+ years a big part of my life and RIP Neil we miss you 💖💖
Geddy is a total dork. But he is the COOLEST dork ever! I mean that with the highest regards. 👑
I was there and one of the crowd singing. It was an absolute brilliant night esp with the Rush pre show at Hard rock cafe during the day.
If there's another band that's truly loved like they are....I don't know who
I know on a much lower level and locally, when the audience sings your songs, it just feels incredible. Cant imagine, what geddy must have felt. RUSH!!!!
I find it amazing that we could understand what the Scotsmen were saying. Good job!!😎👍
Was a fantastic night
Been a fan since 76 when I heard Caress of Steel. Same year I saw them in concert. Makes me proud to be Canadian 🇨🇦

You should also be proud to be Canadian for rock band Big Wreck and Ian Thornley.
I was there. That was a fantastic moment!
One of THE greatest musicians to ever walk the earth.
Getty is a class act.

Along with most Rush fans...RESPECT!
What a great way to honor such a talented person. Great love
Faith in humanity restored until unrestored again.
I love the Scottish people!
I used to mow the lawn for the mother of the artist that wrote the lyrics to the song. Amazing lady. It's no wonder to me that her son could come up with such lasting lyrics.
Well done, Glasgow! Hello from Canada!
Outstanding Glasgow!!🍀😉
Living legend right there.
Wonderful ❤️
Very Touching! ❤ Showing Dirk what Glasgow Nice is all about!
I was part of the crowd in the Glasgow Apollo when Closer was recorded. Saw Rush there 77,78,79 & 80

Beautifully sung, Glasgow.
Saw Geddy in Vancouver, he’s awesome. Reading his book is a treasure of a life
Been to Glasgow twice and all of the people I meet were extremely warm and friendly. I would go back to Scotland again in a heartbeat!
Too cool !!! 👍👍🏁🏁
FTLOG!! Geddy dressed up!! Thought he was at a truck & tractor pull!!! Gotta' luv' that "Sudbury dinner jacket"!! CANUCKS RULE!! 🖤♠

WONDERFUL!!!!!!
That was awesome and also from the Album that got me into RUSH!
OH MY GOSH THIS WAS SO WHOLESOME
That was freakin awesome!! Great idea!! He has talked SO much (as you know) about that crowd that night. Incredible tribute, well done.
The Love Man.
I was there it was great night. 👍
I was being undecisive. A bit of an effort to get there and back. This brought me Closer to the Heart. Now have a ticket for London on 18/12.
That's amazing! Beautiful!
Superb
Been a Rush fan since seeing the Farewell To Kings tour when I was in high school, loved ‘em ever since! The audience was great and you could tell it really meant something to Geddy! Thanks for sharing!
👍👍👍👍Glasgow!
That's sooo awesome
Brilliantly done , I was there at the Glasgow Apollo when it was recorded
Brilliant ! thankyou so much for sharing!
There’s no longer musicians that put so much into their craft. The epitome of music with substance, in a world of EMPTY-V.

What a tribute! ❤ Rush!
Absolutely beautiful throwback tribute! One other note… He doesn’t seem to be too thrilled with the request for the hug at the end. Lol
The blacksmith and the artist reflective in their art…..
That was really great. Rush didn't do a farewell tour so it is nice to see Ged touring and getting the love from his fans.
First time I ever seen the audience would sing to the singer of the group. Singalong? Sure, many times. This? Never.
Very cool.
At first glance at the thumbnail I thought “wow! Alex really needs yet another new exercise trainer.”
Currently listening to his book on Audible... it's great to hear Geddy reading it because it really makes a difference. I just wished Rik Emmett did the same with his.

Cleveland Ohio loves RUSH. WMMS 101 FM Home of the buzzard. Chanel High School gym Bedford Ohio May 1974. Fly By Night tour. Unfukinbelievable. 🍻
❤❤❤🥰❤❤❤
Looking at the thumbnail , for a minute there I thought Alex Lifeson had eaten a little too much ham this Christmas.
Im not crying. No. Im not
Canadian Rock Star...all dressed up. Way to go, eh?
Couldn't happen to a nicer guy! ;)
I haven't seen Phil in a while. I had nonidea hed gone so white in the hair!
Rush is infinite.
I legit thought it was Alex onstage with him for a moment lol
I was there!
Never heard any Rush even though I was born on 21st Dec (2112)..
Phils massive
I think I heard one or two ladies voices out there...... 😉
"ONE, TWO, THREE..."
Geddy: "The singing was very nice, but dude, stop groveling! " 😆
I will gladly come out of retirement to see Rush, sans Peart, perform one more time.
