Great interview guys. Alex Lifeson is beyond a quintessential musician, he’s one of the most considerate and thoughtful musicians I’ve ever seen interviewed. 👍🏻💥👍🏻

I've come to think that Alex, who seemed less in the spotlight than Geddy and Neil for all those years, was the true genius - the alchemist, if you will - behind Rush. So great.

@andyharman3022 2 жыл бұрын

After 41 years on the road, I can definitely appreciate Alex's desire to stay home, and only do a few concerts. But as long as he keeps creating new music, he will remain forever young.

Great interview. I’ll declare a bias of being a lifelong Rush fan of over 40 years, but one of things that always impressed me about Alex Lifeson (and the other guys) was their humility and humanity. Not a word often use, but.... hero.

I loved the interview ! There is just one thing I wish Alex would do, and that's make an all acoustic album of all his work and writing. Stuff like "Hope" is just Epic ! I know he's worked on some acoustic stuff with someone not long ago too. I just can't remember his name at the moment. So I would love to see that side of Alex released as well !

You must be a new youtube program. Well done. I believe Alex and Rush are respected all over the world, and probably no band ever had their sort of chemistry, along with being the nicest guys in rock. There's no drums in Envy of None? Just did a quick search and it doesn't show a drummer.

I'm happy for Alex and his new band but no-one has addressed the 600 pound gorilla in the room. That is that this new music has no classic Alex Lifeson guitar playing on it.

@surfeit5910 2 жыл бұрын

I've tried so hard to enjoy this album, but the vocalist is just soooooo "weak" by comparison to other vocalists. Light and ethereal notes floating around all over the place without any real power or timbre behind her voice. Plus the two songs I've heard are rather bleak and depressing... It's the kind of music that would be playing in the background of a heroin overdose in a movie.

@@Kgio-2112 as Alex said, this album explores multiple genres and she delivers multiple styles of vocal performances, so if you don't like two songs that doesn't mean that you don't like the hole album since the songs are not all the same.

I loved Portishead, Sneaker Pimps and Garbage. Envy of None is not good. A big disappointment. I tried to get into them and even went back and re-listened after this interview. Singer has a good voice but the songs are boring and production engineering is annoying sounding. What a waste of Alex's talent.
