The drummer wrote 95% of the lyrics from 18 of their 19 studio albums over their 40+ years careers! Not only was he a phenomenal drummer he was a true poet with most of their lyrics! RIP Neil!
RIP the Professor. GOAT 🙏🙏❤❤
Neil Peart one of the greatest Rock Drummers ever...
Neil Peart the drummer was also the main lyrist for the band. He was a private and shy person who felt uncomfortable with all that came with fame. what you were talking about is time signatures. Rush were the masters of smooth transitions from one time change to another. I would suggest La Villa Strangiato official music video. It is one of their masterpieces. Cheers
Funny story about this video, I had a dog that would sit and watch the whole thing. At the very beginning you see a german shepard walk into frame and run off. My dog used to run to the tv looking for the dog. She would sit and watch the whole thing and run up to the tv when the dog comes back at the end.

That is adorable! She had a thing for Bytor. LOL
With RUSH you don't hear the music, you feel it. The guitar solo is how they feel on tour. Meeting people they have never seen but are expected to know. It's a haunting solo.
That part you went back to hear is "Living in the fisheye lens stuck in the camera eye. I have no heart to lie. I can't pretend a stranger is a long-awaited friend."
Limelight is my favourite Rush song because I really love how the emotional expression in Geddy's voice and Alex's guitar solo beautifully bring out Neil's lyrical expression of his discomfort with life in the public eye. He was an introvert as I am, whose traits are commonly misinterpreted as shyness, but simply reflect our need for time to ourselves to recharge our mental energy; he also struggled with anxiety issues stemming from a near-drowning incident at the age of 10, as recalled in his book Travelling Music, and in an online article from Rolling Stone Magazine. Their song Freewill is another excellent example of what a gifted musician and lyricist he was behind the barriers he'd put up to keep himself intact; and if you'd like to put the above comment about it being better to the test, I recommend the Exit Stage Left performance. Cheers from Canada! 🇨🇦 🎤 🎹 🎸 🥁 🎸 🔥 🔥 🔥
Rush is one of my all times favorites. Teddy Lee absolutely had the biggest voice in the tiniest body, Neil was an absolute genius songwriter and one of the greatest drummers to pick up sticks, and Alex Lifeson is just absolutely stellar on guitar. I couldn’t get over it when I learned they were just a trio. I told my dad they were a “wall of sound”.❤❤❤ At the end of the day they were use 3 Canadian potheads who liked using, D&D and each other. They were best friends and band mates for somewhere around 35 years before we lost Neil a couple of years ago. It sucks that I’ll never see them again but I’m lucky I got to see them live 3 times. Every single time was 3 hours of magic.
Was fortunate to see them play live many times. After 40 years still amazes me that three guys can play like this. musically and lyrically on a different level.

I had the pleasure of seeing Rush 53 times including the final show at the Forum.... Experience of a lifetime!
40 some odd years of listening to this and it's still, WOW!!!👌👌👍👍✌✌😁😁
Rush is known for their hooks in their music. It goes from like a four note music to three note to a five note there this awesome.
I had all of their albums through the 70's, to about the mid 80's. Grace Under Pressure was the last I bought...but I continued listening to them. Ever since hearing Working Man on the radio...I have loved this band. I even had their Caress of Steel album.♥

Never understood the hate toward Caress of Steel. Fountains of Lamneth is one of my favorite songs of theirs.

@@Fred-vy1hm I loved the album too...and that is a good song there. I know friends of mine back then really didn't get into RUSH until the following 2112 album.
Great reaction, dude. You caught the main line of the song, "I can't pretend a stranger is a long awaited friend." Dig it. And that gorgeous, liquid guitar solo, hell yeah!
Three Incredibly musical monsters of music. They sound like a band of six.
This song is about how people that are thrust into fame are often SHY around the FANS because the FANS have more knowledge of you than you have of them. So you build barriers to deal with being famous... Peart has some of the most thoughtful and poignant lyrics - so when you listen to the MUSIC - you need to also really listen to the LYRICS and what he is trying to say....
Classic Canadiana!! Rush is the absolute best!!
Have heard this song a thousand times, but if you're playing it, I'll stop whatever I'm doing and listen...it's just that good. Very satisfied with your reaction. 😁❤👍🤙
This my favorite by Rush. The drummer, Neil Peart, is the one that other drummers idolized.
🤩 Here for Rush! 🥰🐰
That "skipping ' that you hear is a time signature shift. In this case the verses are in repeating measures of 4 and 3, or 7/4 and the chorus shifts smoothly into 6/8 and then building out of it for 8 bars of 4/4 ( the only time we hear the more standard 4/4 is in those crescendo sections, haha)
Greatest band ever. I love watching them, but you also need to know the lyrics. So you have to listen to it over & over (lol). You have to watch La Villa Strangiato. It's an instrumental. Neil Peart (drummer) - watch any of his drum solos. Working Man (live in Cleveland), Natural Science (need words to this), Spirit of Radio, Subdivisions. If you're new to Rush, you're going to get a lot of Rush fans (including me) coming here suggesting all kinds of stuff.
Greatest band of all time lyrically and musically all 3 are virtuosos on their instruments!!!!! Any Rush is good Rush, try driven, half the world Xanadu live, trees, big money, lock and key, turn the page, mission, marathon,
The greatest rock band of all time
Geddy Lee, he has a three octave range. And his bass playing is 🔥!! And plays synthesizer and bass pedals.
They're excellent.
Has anyone in comments watched the Rick Mercer interview with Neil Peart? Rick plays beginner drums beside Neil on the Gold set. It's priceless.
I was so lucky to have seen them twice. Once in the 70's and once in the 80's. Phenomenal band!

One of my favorite song endings.
Greatest trio EVER!! Great reaction! Keep em coming!! Watch Neil Peart drum solo! Be well and God bless… from Texas!! 😊
That timing thing you mentioned...It's a glitch in the matrix.
These guys mean business!
You RULE!!!
Neil Peart is regarded by many (including myself) as the greatest rock drummer of all time. Rush were Kings. "Limelight" is arguably the best song on arguably their best album, "Moving Pictures".
Subdivisions, Closer to the Heart and La Villa Strangiato.
that SLOW down transition was DOPE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great reaction. You might be ready for "Spirit of the Radio". Official video or the SARS concert for a live version.
Progressive rock...aka PROG ROCK.
I think you're talking about syncopation. That and the fact Rush changes tempos and time signatures throughout most songs makes for a high level of quality musicianship. Good catch and reactions. Cool dude. ✌
Rush is the masters of changing time signatures on a whim in mid song. they will go from 3/4 time to 4/4 time in a single phrase then back to 3/4 time. It is called knowing your craft.
Please like & Share VWG is an awesome guy!
You are referring to time signature changes, where they change from 4/4 to 3/4 or whatever. Rush do it more than most but where they excel is how seamless it is.
The thing that’s crazy with this band, though, is song after song after song after song is THAT good. Ten, or twenty songs in you’ll ask yourself how they keep on knocking it out of the park every time. Nineteen albums worth! Check out Red Barchetta. It’s a song about a car. Cheers!
When I was a kid, I always wondered where the Fish Islands where…
❤😀 it
Great reaction!! This album was incredibly popular and catapulted Rush into mainstream music. You could do a full album reaction (less the songs you've already heard)...it's that good 👍. If not...check out Red Barchetta, Camera Eye, Vital Signs and there badass instrumental, YYZ. See what you think.
you're thinking of "Odd Meter" time. Most popular songs are in 4/4 or 3/4, counting 1,2,3,4 1,2,3,4 or 1,2,3 1,2,3 etc. Rush likes to throw in plenty of 5 and 7 beat long bars (or measures) tripping up the impulse to feel the time in more "even", common patterns.
Awesome bro!!!!!!!! Check out YYZ live in Rio. And Leave that thing alone, live in Cleveland. Incredible
You should check out working man, live in Cleveland, it's great 😃.
Yo Greg, do yourself a favor and do the WHOLE ALBUM, RUSH ' Moving Pictures'
It is a very long song but you should do 2112. It is a masterpiece
good job.
And YYZ.
My guess your talking about "ghost notes" drum wise.
GREG ‼️🌟🌟🌟‼️ do you take reaction requests?
You should do Def Leppard, the best one armed drummer there is.
