Last album... Last song... Still can't get through it without a tear or two. Neil's passing just adds to the poignancy 😢

I can’t het through it either without getting choked up. I STILL can’t watch Time Stand Still. I watched it when it first was released but haven’t been able to watch it again since we lost Neil in 2020. I am getting better after 4 years but I’m not there yet. I loved the world more with him in it. 🤘🎶💜

Me too. Took Neil’s passing so hard it scared me. The end of the Time Stand Still doc kills me. The guy with the ponytail just standing there as the place empties out is so sad.
Alex Lifeson and David Gilmour are my 2 favourite guitarists. Both can tell a story with a guitar and illicit an emotional response. Brilliant.
Emotional every time I watch a Rush reaction but The Garden takes it to another level. Phenomenal song.
I can't watch or listen to this song without losing it... check the lyrics, it's autobiographical to the band and anyone (a metaphor of course) just a perfect way to end one of the greatest bands to ever do it. What a legacy, of integrity, friendship and art of the highest caliber. RIP Neil.

Same.
Cant listen/watch this song without a tear coming into my eyes. Last track, last album, thinking of Neil. So moving. Miss you guys. RIP Neil Peart 🙏
The last song from their last album "For example, when these virtuoso artists on violin, viola, cello, and double-bass executed David's plangent orchestration for "The Garden," there was not a dry eye in the studio. ..." Neil Peart about The Garden Masterpiece
If you want to hear Alex play acoustic look for his short instrumental piece "Hope" - just Alex and a 12-string, it's beautiful
This song always moves me greatly.
Alex has played acoustic on the beginning and the end of A Farewell to Kings official music video He has a beautiful acoustic song called Hope On the R40 tour Geddy and Alex do an acoustic version of Resist. The beautiful piano piece that Alex was playing was something he also wrote. Gorgeous powerful song ❤❤❤

Alex has an acoustic set up on a stand for Broon's Bane, leading into the Trees on the Exit Stage Left performance. It's beautiful.
That solo goosebumps every time (an Alex throwaway solo)
🏆🏆🏆🏆! I was so fortunate to see RUSH on this tour. AMAZING!

Likewise in Toronto. Mind bending.
Rush saved their best for last. The last song on the last album they ever made. Beautiful swan song!!! "We must cultivate our own garden." ~ Voltaire
The Garden is also the very last song Rush ever wrote. They went out with a bang 🤘🥲
Alex always wore his emotions on his sleeve when he played. His feel is the best part of his sound imo
This is Rush's "Comfortably Numb"... A Swan Song.
Alex plays acoustic (classical actually) on the beginning of La Villa. Also, the bit in 2112 when he finds the guitar is acoustic-y.

@@scotttolson8179 yup. I knew there was more.
The last song off their last album. talk about ending on a high note
An absolute masterpiece!
im crying everytime
The Garden is a last song masterpiece for there last studio album, I tear up every time I hear it. Plus I know the meaning of this song from the Clockwork Angles book which I read before the album released. The songs follow the story of the book characters.
Closer to the Heart, and Alex plays acoustic in studio and Live for this one.
This song means so much to all the members, Neil wrote this after his daughter died in a car Crash and his wife passed from cancer , Geddys parents were holocaust survivors , Alex’s dad was a political prisoner in Europe
Talk about a f'ing swan song!
Best song on Clockwork Angels. And that's saying a lot.
I have been a Rush fan for years and have been to so many of their shows. The garden is the best song ever! Its deep.
You should listen to my second favourite Canadian 3 piece band which is : The Tea Party. Here are a few incredible songs from them you should check out : Temptation, Fire in the head, Sister Awake, Psychopump, The bazaar, Save me, Raven skies, and my favourite ... Correspondence. That will give you a good idea of what they can do. They have a unique and amazing sound with middle eastern under tone but heavy sounding. If you like Rush, Led Zeppelin and The Doors with a touch of early 90's grunge you should like it !!!!!!!!
Knew you would love it Rory.....I always get sad thinking if Neil knew about his Cancer at the time he wrote this tune/brings tears to my eyes when I listen to the lyrics,
Piezo Bridge Pickup. Makes It sound like an acoustic... It's Beautiful!
Long live the Mighty Rush…!
If you listen to the lyrics with Neils passing in mind since this was the last song on the last album coming ...youll be sad Rory
The beginning of "The Trees" also has Alex on acoustic. I think Alex took over the keys for Geddy to put all his attention on singing the deepest verse. "The Garden" was their last studio song track. This was Neil's final poem.

Alex wrote the piano part (and the orchestration for this song), Geddy never played it, even on the album
Awesome reaction again man! I was looking forward to watching you react to this one. There are so many more favourite Rush songs to come! Excited for you to get back to the album reviews, especially the next one, Grace Under Pressure.
Piezo equipped guitar - his signature Les Paul - 2 outputs and can blend eg Camera Eye (where he has 2 tracks on the album on electric one acoustic)
"The watchmaker has time up his sleeve". I love that line. Such a brilliant lyric. RIP Neil.
2nd Row Geddy's side when this was recorded. There are no words to express all the things one feels when listening to this.
losing it live is another one you would love
Honestly, the best part of this reaction was seeing the smile keep growing on your face as the song went on. 😄 I think Alex has spent a lot of his musical career trying to make his electric guitars sound like as many other instruments (acoustic and otherwise) as he can, lol. That said, if you want to hear Alex on a 12-string acoustic, you might want to listen to their song "Hope" from the Snakes & Arrows album. You can find a live version from Holland that is amazing. Cheers!
I knew it!!! I knew you were going to start your reaction just the way you did. The song is perfect. It inspires awe in the hearing. I chose Headlong Flight and The Garden to fully demonstrate that Rush never lost it. Indeed, I consider Clockwork Angels to be one of my five most favourite Rush albums. The song took on even greater depth and meaning for many a Rush fan in the wake of Neil Peart's death, as it is about the protagonist of their story looking back and re-evaluating his life and its meaning. The fact that this was the very last song on the 19th and final Rush studio album just seemed perfect in retrospect.
A very fitting and beautiful lyric from Neil for this, his swansong.
Thank you for finally playing The Garden....I think it was Neil's way of telling his fans that he wanted to be done to take care of his family...last song on the last album 😢the end ❤🇨🇦 Where's My Thing?/ HERE IT IS live in Dallas another shorter Professor solo you need to see plunked in the middle of an awesome instrumental😊
Alex is THE Man! Well said.
Watch the video for The Trees from the 1981 Exit....Stage Left show, and Natural Science from the R40 tour, plays an actual acoustic guitar in both.
That's the electric guitar thru his foot switchboard! I have heard him talk about his gear to get this sound! Listen to RUSH songs beginnings with Alex playing acoustic guitar. The Trees, Farewell to Kings.

You're most welcome.
That was such a great show, we had to see it twice. This song always chokes me up. RUSH's swan song. Last song on last album. Also Rory, it is Geddys favorite RUSH song. The best they ever wrote, he has said.
2112 Discovery. That sealed it for me 😊
You need to listen to the full album to get the context and really appreciate it. Youll get there eventually😂
RIP KING
That was the very last song they wrote for their very last record, and for you, that was the best Rush song you’ve heard? How many bands can you say that about who were at their very end?

RIP NEIL PEART 🥁 😇❤️🩹🌹
Do driven please Alex's playing is off the charts don't know how to do PayPal thing
Now read the lyrics and the song gets even better
This was the absolute perfect song to end Rush’s career. It’s a beautiful song. RIP Neil.
Forgot to add RORY....The Garden is almost a final message from Neil in how to nurture life as it is indeed short. The Hours tick away.....The Cells tick away (is it a message from Neil about Cancer????)

It would have to have been a premonition, given that the song was written in 2012 and Neil didn't develop symptoms that led to his cancer diagnosis until the summer of 2016. Of course, his first wife, Jacquie Taylor, did die of cancer in 1998, so he could certainly have had that in mind when he penned those lyrics.
