Totally. For all the negative things, YT enables us to hear & see stuff many of us wouldn't or couldn't access. I think though this will decrease so to speak & everything monetised. Ive always been into Cure, SOM etc but Rush played a huge part in my mid/late teens. I was the'weirdo' at school but thrived on that! Neil Peart never be forgotten

Johnathan, I was introduced to Neil, by one of our local drummers who was widely known, and then opened a full music school. Spending my summer vacays with Neil, was NO walk in the park. There was a lot of physical conditioning/training. Every day since his untimely death, I sit down and play one of his songs.

Its entertaining to speculate who would be the drummer for a new RUSH...but...it stops there. Geddy and Alex will never EVER get on stage... or in the studio again...to create new RUSH music. Could they get a drummer who can play as good as Neil? I will honestly say theres alot of incredible drummers out there who are on the same technical and execution level Neil is....but thats where it stops. There will never EVER be a creative genius out there to rival Neils songwriting and lyrical skills which made rush RUSH. And furthermore, I believe Geddy and Alex will never try to replace Neil...for the complete respect for what Neil created. It would not be fair to anyone.

In 2008, I was at a bar in Etobicoke, ON. I couldn't help but notice a dude just casually playing an acoustic while stretched out across two bar stools. I asked the server what the deal was, and he casually replied, "Oh, that's Alex Lifeson. Yeah, we keep a guitar here for him. He likes to play it sometimes." Sure enough, it was him. Shy at first, I eventually approached him to offer some general praise. Despite my interruption, he chatted with me for about 15 minutes, topping it off with "It was nice to meet you". Just one example of how cool and grounded they are. I doubt I'll forget that one...

This, IMO, is one of the best versions of Subdivisions on KZread. Crystal clear sound and the guys at the top of their game. Oh, it brings back memories of the first time I saw them in Toronto for the Moving Pictures tour. In the last 40 years, I’ve seen well over 1,000 club, outdoor, indoor, stadium and festival shows ranging from amateurs and up and comers to the top touring acts and, instrumentally, they are second to no one. The greatest composer of drums in the last 40+ years and one of the greatest drummers. He also happens to be one of the greatest lyricists. A truly underrated guitarist, only by the music rag-mags who is universally respected by other guitar gods. And a lead singer, bassist and keyboardist who is just so insanely talented. Treat yourself to this outstanding version by listening through a headset. You can here every note of every instrument in this version. And they’re Canadian too, eh.

She and her 80 year old dad get there and her dad said "Its good to see so many young people embracing traditional values!" Then the band came on..... She said they actually stayed for 5-6 songs and on the way out the old man says "Well, the drummer is very talented. There's no denying that."

I was trying to learn this song on keys and man some of the odd bar numbers in parts make it so hard to switch stuff in some parts. A good free synth for this is the patch "LAURIE" on the free downloadable synth called Dexed. One of the top free synths I have found I think.

What an awesome performance of Subdivisions, my favourite RUSH song. This is what happens when music and friendship overpowers ego and competition. These guys love their fans as much as we love them. A lot has happened in the world recently; this is the song I listen to when I go to my "happy place". Same as when I was a teenager (who didn't fit in) growing up in beautiful Alberta. If Geddy or Alex happen to read this comment, I would like to say to them... Thank You.

Its entertaining to speculate who would be the drummer for a new RUSH...but...it stops there. Geddy and Alex will never EVER get on stage... or in the studio again...to create new RUSH music. Could they get a drummer who can play as good as Neil? I will honestly say theres alot of incredible drummers out there who are on the same technical and execution level Neil is....but thats where it stops. There will never EVER be a creative genius out there to rival Neils songwriting and lyrical skills which made rush RUSH. And furthermore, I believe Geddy and Alex will never try to replace Neil...for the complete respect for what Neil created. It would not be fair to anyone.
In 2008, I was at a bar in Etobicoke, ON. I couldn't help but notice a dude just casually playing an acoustic while stretched out across two bar stools. I asked the server what the deal was, and he casually replied, "Oh, that's Alex Lifeson. Yeah, we keep a guitar here for him. He likes to play it sometimes." Sure enough, it was him. Shy at first, I eventually approached him to offer some general praise. Despite my interruption, he chatted with me for about 15 minutes, topping it off with "It was nice to meet you". Just one example of how cool and grounded they are. I doubt I'll forget that one...

There will never be another Rush ever. The highest tech band and self made. Nobody had ever controlled their own production process at this time. It was their own company. The only way to be or give it up and do not do it at all.
There is no better example of what is meant when someone says "They were tight!" Not a note out of place, everybody killing it, and doing it live...just wow!
This is the ultimate Rush song in my opinion. The complexity of the music, the true to life lyrics, the grandness of the synth at the end, it just can't get any better.
Rest in Peace Neil. You're with your family now. Thank you for all the wonderful memories you have given millions of fans all over the world.
This, IMO, is one of the best versions of Subdivisions on KZread. Crystal clear sound and the guys at the top of their game. Oh, it brings back memories of the first time I saw them in Toronto for the Moving Pictures tour. In the last 40 years, I’ve seen well over 1,000 club, outdoor, indoor, stadium and festival shows ranging from amateurs and up and comers to the top touring acts and, instrumentally, they are second to no one. The greatest composer of drums in the last 40+ years and one of the greatest drummers. He also happens to be one of the greatest lyricists. A truly underrated guitarist, only by the music rag-mags who is universally respected by other guitar gods. And a lead singer, bassist and keyboardist who is just so insanely talented. Treat yourself to this outstanding version by listening through a headset. You can here every note of every instrument in this version. And they’re Canadian too, eh.

She and her 80 year old dad get there and her dad said "Its good to see so many young people embracing traditional values!" Then the band came on..... She said they actually stayed for 5-6 songs and on the way out the old man says "Well, the drummer is very talented. There's no denying that."

I'll take 'Things That Never Happened' for five-hundred, Alex.
This was my introduction to Rush...1983 I think. Listening to the radio...blew me away and started a lifelong love for the band and the music.
Geddy-Bass, Vocals, Keyboards and NO bullshit rockstar douchebaggary, just a helluva guy. A real mensch!

He was one of the few musicians back then who didn't go through some messed up stuff like others did. I am glad because Rush has a huge discography with so many . I was trying to learn this song on keys and man some of the odd bar numbers in parts make it so hard to switch stuff in some parts. A good free synth for this is the patch "LAURIE" on the free downloadable synth called Dexed. One of the top free synths I have found I think.

Harrison Crutcher Funny thing is that’s Canada in a nutshell. People living for a long time because they never smoke or so drugs. Just eating blueberries and salmon and other delicacies keeps them lively for decades. Of course even Rush had to retire but Geddy Lee never lost his voice. Amazing it is.

RIP Mr Neil Peart! for sure 4 or more generations of drummers get inspired by his talent
Never in my lifetime will we ever see another band with this much talent.
Discovered these guys with my friend our junior year in HS in 2000 and saw them for our first time at their r30 show in 04 and it changed our lives, not only was the show great but the fellow fans who were most friendly bunch of people we ever met, they all couldn’t believe that two 21 year olds were there to see the show. We were some of the youngest and I’ll never forget it!
Been a fan since 1982, and it just never gets old. This is the greatest band in the history of ever.
“....be cool or be cast out...” That was me. They got me. Neil’s lyrics equaled his percussion. RIP Professor.
The prof, drumming and lyrics, just different class. Gotta love Rush. Best band ever.
I saw them 4 times ,one in front row ticket ,i will never forget it
Miss Neil so much. There's nothing that compares to watching him play with the overhead cam. His precision was incredible and unmatched.
This version of subdivisions is the best in my opinion. Tempo is perfect, Geddys voice is calm and controlled, his synth sounds amazing and no weird effects, the bass is dark and thumpy, and neils drums are tuned probably better than any DW kit live except for the r30 one. Shits just perfect

The greatest 3 piece band of all time, change my mind....

the only band that comes close is the Police and maybe Cream but neither of those bands have the catalog.
RIP Professor. Amazing bass. Geddy really thumps it. Alex Lifeson always a genius. Brilliant piece. And I am devastated.
Subdivision by Rush is 1 of my all-time favorite songs, Rush is 1 of my all-time favorite groups they're 2 amazing been 2 most of their concerts y can't get a drummer better than Neil Peart he's absolutely amazing he's 1 of my all-time favorites
Love that Geddy changed his name to Geddy, out of love for his mother, love that he stood in for the late Chris Squire when Yes were inducted into the R+RHOF, love that I was able to grow up listening to these three and love that I can still get away with hammering out Exit Stage Left into the wee hours of the morning. We are lucky to have experienced greatness, and luckier still to realise it!
RUSH---Once in MANY, MANY Lifetimes. R.I.P. Neil.
Geddy, guitar, keyboards, vocals, wow
Yes Indeed 100% Agreed that this is Rushes Best Song. Only after Limelight, in my opinion. I've seen them 7 times Live, Starting at the Permanent Waves tour, then the Moving Pictures Tour, Best Album & Tour, In My Opinion. Caught em last on the signals Tour🎶 🎵 👏💙💜🙌😁
Just an unbelievable band. And probably the greatest drummer ever
This will always be my favorite song by Rush!
Neil Peart's drums will live in the ears of Rock n Roll 10 years past forever.....perfect tone, just perfect.....
Even now listening to Rush is a little tough knowing, that Neil is gone. Such an iconic band that make music history as Rush did...Neil like his bandmates are all interwoven as if one player was playing like a solo. My heartfelt sympathies for Neil's family and, for Geddy & Alex.... For myself, Rush will live FOREVER as immortal!!!
Oh hell yes! That's our national anthem. Can all the Canadians in here please stand up! 🇨🇦
What an awesome performance of Subdivisions, my favourite RUSH song. This is what happens when music and friendship overpowers ego and competition. These guys love their fans as much as we love them. A lot has happened in the world recently; this is the song I listen to when I go to my "happy place". Same as when I was a teenager (who didn't fit in) growing up in beautiful Alberta. If Geddy or Alex happen to read this comment, I would like to say to them... Thank You.

If ever there was a Rush track to show someone who has never heard of Rush it would be this. It has everything Rush has to offer.
This is the most hauntingly beautiful song ever written.

Jan. 7, 2020. What a devastating start to the year that hasn’t let up!
Now that James Brown is gone, I nominate Mr. Geddy Lee as "The Hardest Working Man in Showbusiness." His singing is fantastic, he is playing the keyboard and when he begins to pluck his base, the walls threaten to come down. I know of no other human on the face of the earth who could do that and do it so well!
"The restless dreams of youth", thank you Neil for that line.♥
The perfect marriage of rock and synth. And God-in-heaven Neil Peart’s drumming!!! To call him brilliant or expert is underselling. Perfect rarely applies to anything. But his drumming was flawless and unrivaled.
Geddy skipping across the stage at 4:25 when he goes back to the bass and Alex starts his solo is just SO FUCKING EPIC!... a real, true, masterpiece.
The technically most gifted band
Neil was rush hands down best drummer ever
I went to see them in 1978 at the Tarrant County Convention Center in Ft.Worth Texas not knowing who they really were....MAN !! that concert really had an affect on me...the fact that 3 guys could make all these different sounds was something to behold !!!! I was 16 at that time,i'm 57 now and I never get tired of listening to RUSH !!

This is the song that introduced me to Rush in elementary school was a big introvert till 7th grade
How could you not love Subdivisions? That ending! Just awesome. Miss you Neil. ❤️
Saw them at age 15 doing Permanent Waves. My first real concert! Had to ride the bus to Baton Rouge. 2 kids, 15 and 14. Terrified! The bikers, hippies, before the popularity boost. But once Saxxon was done a ton of regular folk filled it up. I couldn’t believe what I was seeing!! That screen with the lights shining on them against it made them look like they weren’t real! And the guys up in the lights moving those spotlights. And, freakin By Tor! OMG. They played everything! And Ged sang perfectly. Man, then 7 more shows.
I listened to this song over and over while driving from San Jose to Reno. Great song!
I'm a vet.That is my favorite Rush song. That was the first time hearing Pershing 's Own version.Extremely awesome.
Geddy Lee’s vocals🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
