“Suddenly you were gone, from all the lives you left your mark upon.” R.I.P. Neil 🔥🎧🎧🥲
As one goes through life, there is always a Rush song to describe any single moment in a lyrical and emotional way that no other band has been able to do for me personally. And I've been connecting with their music for 45 years now since first seeing them live in 1976. Thanks for reacting to this!

'76 was my first tour as well. Got to see them 6 times total. Biggest regret is not seeing their final tour

That’s The Professor for you
The whole Grace Under Pressure album is such Rush gem.

From 1977-1985 I feel like every album they released is a stone cold masterpiece. I like some stuff off of earlier and later albums, but I can (and have) listen to the run from "Farewell to Kings" through"Power Windows" and love every single moment.
Alex was playing some wild chord solos there. Good luck on finding many guitarists doing that.

That solo is so good! Also love the ones on Ref Sector A and Between The Wheels. A completely new take on playing leads compared to the 70s stuff. A true master.

I can tell you that I try to do it where i can.. largely because of Alex’s influence
Analog Kid and digital man are two gems from their signals album that I would highly recommend you react to.

I second this two songs! Make sure you do live versions!
Alex had taken a bit of a back seat for the recording of Signals so this was the album where he really found a way to integrate his guitar playing into Geddy's keyboard oriented vision of the band. I think Grace Under Pressure is one of the most cohesive and best albums Rush recorded. Right up there with Hemispheres and Moving Pictures.

This song is from the Grace Under Pressure album. The feel of the album is kind of dark and gloomy, but I love every song on it.

It does have a dark, somber vibe and though it sounds squarely in the '80's it is futuristic, has a cool dark sci-fi feel to it

This is during the period when Alex was really loving U2's The Edge and the guitarist from Simple Minds. He wanted to invoke some of those tones and that "edge" (no pun intended), in his sound and attack. This is a really under-appreciated song, although I believe they did do this song on the Grace Under Pressure tour. Everything they do/did was so earnest, passionate and open-hearted. Yes, they were Tech-heads in their chops and focus on cutting edge musical technology and themes, but they were also great people and they were speaking to us from the heart!
This could be my favorite Alex solo believe it or not. So damn good. 4:30 He's soloing with chords... sounds incredible. I wish it lasted 3x as long.
It's beyond me how they can create so many really great songs that sound so different. I mean a singer with the same voice figuring out how to approach each song in a way that gives it it's own unique life, that short circuits my head.
look at the way geddy singing he really mean's it every word such an homage to a friend what humanity they are
You can feel the tension in the music here. It's almost an urgency. Great reaction as always Good Sir!
The opening line is what came to mind for me when Neil Peart died
i love how he jumps with the drumming 6:01
Geddy’s voice is another instrument to my ear. His phrasing, tone changes and how he sets the mood….amazing.
The lyrics to the RUSH song ROLL THE BONES are some of the most integral ones of my life. I’m late to the rush party too. Just a majestic band I’m blessed to have experienced in my lifetime
Grace under pressure, still one of my favorite albums, mostly for Alex‘s guitar tone throughout and some fantastic solos. This song is remarkable for how much space the group creates going into the guitar solo which is then heavily just chords it really build the anticipation until Alex’s solo explodes onto the scene. Rush is so great at creating that space and tone and taking their time to build some thing like that. it’s masterful.
I will never forget where I was when I heard of Neil Peart's passing. Hit me like 9/11 or the space shuttle explosion where everybody remembers where they were.
Grace Under Pressure is one of my favorite albums. Very 80’s but it was 1984…….it SHOULD sound that way. All the songs were much heavier live.
Watching you get off on RUSH brings me so much joy!!! I am 48 years old and I remember laying in my bed as a teenager discovering all these tunes. I wish I could back in time and do it all over again. I remember just smiling and laughing with utter excitement to hear them. I had a pair of KOSS headphones and I would lay in my bed and go into a different land. I love how Doug is getting after the 80's work because a-lot of people discount those years. However, I would love you to go deep and attack some crazy ass crap , Like By-Tor and the Snow-dog or a Farewell to Kings. and the list goes on. lol. Keep it going my man!!! Peace.
The lyrics to this song are filled with lovely, sad, and wistful scenes of nostalgia about a person who was loved, and the confusion over how you're supposed to feel when that person dies. But the music is so forceful, defiant, and angry that you can tell right away how they're feeling. The whole P/G album has this kind of angry tone tone of wasted loss no matter what the subject matter is. It's such a compelling album.
It’s awesome that you react to some the lesser known songs from Rush.
I graduated high school when this album was released. My buddy and I jammed to this all summer long.

Same with me! Had this on cassette.
Been a rush fan my whole life (I'm a drummer, do the math... I'm 54) and this song and this album has always been one of my favorites by Rush. I do a deep dive every few years and for some reason I've been grooving on this song all week non-stop and thought I'll go see if there's a reaction on it. Wasn't sure if there would be since it's sort of a deep cut. Cool to see you grooving on it even though you've only recently discovered them. I love seeing the natural reaction because it's the same way I feel and many others react and feel (still) about the music. It just gets you groovin. Anyways, I will subscribe and check out the rest of your videos - since you were digging this, and Rush, I know the rest of your reactions will be great. Good work. 👊
Rush is one of those bands where it’s great to be enveloped by it or give it a straight shot to the ear in low light and jam out!!
Love this song! And did you notice the music video too? In his plot? The most "sinister" video for the most "sinister" song from Rush's most "sinister" album...
Stack Rush in the 80s against any other band in the decade, and Rush can't be duplicated by any one of them... Rush slays all!!!
This song was about one of their crew members who they had become close with and died tragically, suddenly, totally unexpectedly and I believe the album was dedicated in his memory. Robbie Whelan.
What a BOMB dropped!!
Damn...I wish u got to see them live,!!!
Great track. I had forgotten about this one from Grace under pressure. Had that on cassette when I was in high school. This and Between the Wheels are awesome.
That whole album is over the top badassness.
What an amazing, heartfelt, emotional song. Thanks for sharing this ! What an atmosphere Rush created in this one ( as with their songs in general). Awesome guitar, keyboards, etc.
Fun fact, this is one of a few songs that there actually is no bass guitar on. Only keys and guitar and drums. Another was red sector A.
Thing about Grace Under Pressure, Alex had already grown weary of all the keyboards and synths, felt like he was having to work too hard just to find a place for his guitar playing; if you listen you can hear his frustration, his playing is aggressive and jagged on this album
First in. Love this era of Rush
in 20 years you'll think back to hearing this song for the first time and it will be a great memory, we all grow up all the time :)
Saw them 17 times since Grace under pressure, back when you could campout for tickets. Eight of us got front row on the side by Alex. On their intro song, "Spirit of the Radio" we broke the seats from jamming to the music.

Too funny I saw them 18 times and my first tour was grace under pressure tour as well. Spent many nights camping out for tickets.
Here is another 80s band you should dive into...Husker Du. Diane, sorry somehow, new day rising, makes no sense at all, don't want to know if you are lonely...all good places to start. This was the Minneapolis sound (along with The Replacements) before Prince 😉
Great reaction as always. This is one of my favorite Rush album’s. Then again I say that about almost everyone of them lol
A masterpiece!!! Great reaction!!
the most 80's song by Rush
Always want more Rush. No band captures every emotion like Rush does in their music. Try The Pass. No other song speaks of teen suicide like this one does.
there music breathes its spaced so well but its complex
Great review, more Rush please!
Working them angels, clock work angels, body electric, chemistry, count down, prime mover roll the bones any Rush is good Rush lol
R.I.P. ….the great Neil Peart “ suddenly you were gone from all the lives you left mark upon….I remember “
They will always be Unique.
I highly recommend checking out "Leave that thing alone" live in Cleveland performance 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
If you dig this whole 80s RUSH vibe, try The Weapon and Turn the Page, Live!
About the death of their friend, Robbie Whelan!
Thats how great they are, all 3 are virtuosos on their instruments greatest band of all time lyrically and musically!!,try driven, cut to the chase, double agent Animate, half the world, big money, lock and key, turn the page, mission, marathon, heresy, highly recommend, list to those lyrics and witch hunts lyrics in the stratosphere hemispheres, tree's, circumstances, natural science, Bu2b,,caravan,,,,,,,,,,
Some song suggestions. The Big Money ( a Show of Hands version 1988). Red Sector A, 1984 concert version. Natural Science, original (lyric) version. Rush on !!!
This really still is something to be understood...
Good reaction...thanks ...
If you like this period of rush listen to big money, marathon, and territories from the next album power windows.
T the song title needs to be corrected. It's just called Afterimage
Mystic Rhythms by RUSH please!
Least fav on GRACE. But still GREAT !!!!
great review
Between the Wheels next.
1:25 It's... heavy reggae.
Grace under pressure was a bit difficult to some, but it was nevertheless a masterpiece.
Please check out Cut To The Chase from Rush's album Counterparts
Not my most listened-to song off this album, mood/lyrics whatever, doesn't mesh with my pea brain. BUTT, one of my favourite guitar solos, not just of Alex, but period. Perfect for the mood. ✌🎸🥁🎸
T, have you checked out "Xanadu" off of exit stage left if not well...
This song really evokes all the feelings you have when dealing with the lose of someone.This is not my favourite era of Rush as I prefer when the syth wasn't so much in the forefront as I love Alex's guitar work but still really good songs . Rush were so technical yet heartfelt at the same time. I suggest Animate and Cold Fire from Counter parts. Cheers
Check out between the wheels
Where's my thing by Rush with a awesome drum solo you'll love it
Great Song , but last on my list. (on Grace Under Pressure)
👍
But Man is it not sooo good nostalgia. I keep returning to this aall the time just to remember...
How ironic, that he died of brain cancer.
