It's a miracle how the 3 greatest musicians in rock ended up in the same band. Welcome to the world of Rush.

What has always amazed me is how just three guys made that huge sound...Geddy Lee on vocals , bass, and keyboard in this one :)

Welcome to the very deep rabbit hole that is Rush. What many call "the greatest three-man orchestra ever." I suggest "Spirit of the Radio" next.

“He knows changes aren’t permanent, -but change is.” Genius! I love this song by Rush. This right here is a Classic! Kind of a new-age-sounding song that was released in 1981. They were ahead of their time! Great reaction! -~Pentaholic from Louisiana 🐊

Rush was a great Canadian rock band formed in 1968. The band's style changed over the years, from a blues-inspired hard rock beginning, later moving into progressive rock, then a period marked by heavy use of synthesizers, before returning to guitar-driven hard rock since the end of the 1980s. They had a lot of great songs such as "Not Fade Away", "In The Mood", "Working Man", "Bad Boy", "Fly By Night", "Limelight", "Red Barchetta", "The Spirit Of Radio", "The Trees", "Subdivisions", "Closer To The Heart", "Xanadu", "Anthem" etc.

One of my favorite songs ever; it gets into your head and never leaves😋 The drummer,Neal Peart, passed away recently, but he used a bigger drum kit than anyone, ever, and made it sound like 2 drummers, even LIVE. Best line of the song: He knows changes aren't permanent, but change is. There is a band called STYX has a song called Renegade that you will like.

Rush is 🇨🇦🔥 Three masters of their craft. Never will be another band like them. Best rock trio ever. Try Limelight or Spirit of Radio.

Props to you for your opening. No it's not new to many of us but is is to you and probably many others that will see this. You are basically helping to keep older songs alive for future generations by sharing these older ones. 🤟💯🔥🍻 An the GOAT Neil Peart on drums was always amazing. He passed away just over 2 years ago after a battle with brain cancer. He was also the main writer for the band. These guys were phenomenal for the sounds they made with only 3 band members. Aybe check out "Neil Peart Drum Solo" live in Frankfurt to see the man at work...

Rush are the masters of transitions and time changes. Other songs, Red Barchetta from Exit Stage Left YYZ live in Rio Working man live in Cleveland Cheers 🇨🇦

One of the best drummers' performances ever!

A lot of people dont really think about how complex this song is. The time signature changes so smoothly that you dont even realize it went from a 4/4 beat to a 7 beat and back to 4/4. It does that several times.

Another great 3 man band from Canada.

Great reaction 😊 love seeing people hear Rush for the first time

That Beat is Neil's Heart. It will Never die. RIP Neil.❤️

EVERYONE has heard at least a snippet of this song. This is such an iconic song that parts of it have been used in a million things.

The guy playing the Taurus pedals with his feet is also the guy playing the synthesizer, and the bass guitar and singing. Crazy talent. All of them!

If you enter the RUSH rabbit hole, prepare to be amazed. I entered in 1981 as a sophomore in high school and I’m still in awe, especially seeing them live in 87, 92, and 94.

You opened a door to a maze of rabbit holes. Enjoy the ride man! Good video!

RUSH are rock gods! Mind blowing musicianship and lyrics!

They should have been inducted into the Rock and Roll hall of Fame much sooner than they were. I'm 58 and still love their music.🤘

Ahhhh....the sound of three Canadians, in a cabin, in the woods.....killing it. 😁

Neil Peart was the drummer and wrote most of the songs this band covered subjects the way philosophers do and more than that has been better said by others.

Great reaction this one of my childhood favorites saw them live a couple of times when I was a kid lol. The reason you recognize the beat is because it has been sampled alot and if you watched wrestling back in the day Kerry Von Erich used this as his theme song entrance. these guys were the band back in the day .

The Professor was a master percussionist who also drummed. His name is always in the conversation for best ever.

RUSH is an awesome rock band that indeed embraced the technology of the day such as sensitizers..etc.. I must say Neil Peart IS one of the best drummers that ever LIVED! Check out his 360 degree drum solo (surrounded )! Thanks for the reaction...Loved it...please help Keep history alive!

yes the time signature changes often in this song it throws me every time. and i’ve heard this song 100’s of times!

Rush's one, two punch.....This song and "Spirit of Radio"

welcome to the world of our three Canadian masters... 47burs of awesomeness. That is the Professor Neil Peart on drums. Geddy Lee vocals, synth, bass. Alex Lifeson on guitar..... ohhh your on the begging of a womderful rabbit hole.... Xanadu, LA Villa Strangiato, great reaction cheers

Can you believe all this music is made by three people? Listen and react to more Rush; you'll be blown away. They are considered by many to have been the three best performers on each of their instruments, and they created and performed together for over 40 years. They were the least ego-maniacal famous rock & rollers ever, and Neil Peart, the drummer, percussionist, and lyric writer was a philosopher, poet and writer. You'll find so much to like about this band, their music, and its members if you choose to dig deeper.

Greatest percussionist ever. The Professor!!!

They are awesome aren’t they?🤘🖖✌️🎸🎹🥁🎤

"Tom Sawyer" was definitely on Guitar Hero and was featured in the Paul Rudd movie "I Love You, Man". So I'm guessing you've run across it in through one of those.

Rush is AMAZEBALLS!!! Permanent waves is my favorite album i could list so many epic songs by them

Amazing to think it’s only three guys great reaction be looking for you now

Love Rush's catalog. Deep lyrics and excellent instrutmentation.

There's not a bad tune on that album. You can't go wrong with Rush. Incredible lyrics combined with insane musicianship. They're all masters of their instruments. Another awesome factoid the singer/bassist also plays keyboards with his feet while singing & playing bass live. The drummer there without doubt the best there ever was. These three are probably the most influental musicians of their time.

Deadly right 🤘🤘One of the best bands there ever was...no musicians or bands like this are around today

If you ask any modern-day drummer about Neil Peart they will say "Drum God"...

Neil Peart is one of the best drumers to sit behind a set, RIP

Geddy Lee brought the bass guitar out of the background and made it cool to be on bass. 💖Rush 4ever

Awesome! Thanks 🙏 🇺🇲

Rush constantly changes up time signatures, but they do so seamlessly and you don't always realize it when it happens until suddenly you're off beat again...

What always amazes me is that they just as good and sometimes better live.

This was either in 7/4 time or alternating 4/4 - 3/4. One of the reasons Rush was one of the all-time greats.

Check out Spirit of Radio, Limelight and Subdivisions just to start. Welcome to the world of Rush!

I like how he hits the drum symbol behind him without even looking, very talented R.I.P to Neil Peart

I'll go out on a limb and suggest maybe you heard the beat from the movie "I Love You, Man"? cause Paul Rudd and Jason Seagal play a fun "cover" of it in the movie. Great reaction man!

Guitar Hero. I heard this when it dropped in 1981, but it's been used in several places. Have a great day.

Can you believe there were only 3 guys making all that music?! 🙌

The drummer, Neil Peart, is considered to be one of the best ever. He also wrote the majority of the lyrics for the band. He was always learning. Geddy and Alex are also some of the best in their fields. Rush is legendary, for good reason. Solid at every spot.

everything that you picked up 9n and commented on are very things that make Rush, Rush. they are all virtuosos and geniuses at composition. they are just having fun messing around and us mere mortals are strewn around the ground with our minds and ears blown out and away. enjoy your journey meeting the Cerberus of Rock

Home Free.... When a man loves a woman... Old R&B song.. Has to be one of their best ..

Dude....you react to both acapella and classic rock?! You have a new subscriber! 😁 Rush was amazing; a truly unique sound from three very talented gentlemen. Speaking of classic rock, I would love to see you react to my favorite band of all time, Chicago. (Their amazing early stuff, not their 80's ballad stuff.) I recommend "25 or 6 to 4" and "Make Me Smile." Keep up the great reactions!

Neal Peart was the greatest drummer EVER!! R.I.P NEAL. You will always be missed ❤️😭🙏.

It’s said that a metronome keeps time by Neil Pert!!! The best technically proficient drummer ever!

thank you for reacting to Rush they are the best 3-piece band ever well in my eyes they are the best band ever. I would recommend maybe the Spirit of Radio or Xanadu. or even Limelight. Welcome to Rush! Geddy sings, plays bass and synth. Alex plays guitar and Neil aka the Professor is on percussion. Neil writes most the lyrics and Geddy and Alex forcus on music. 😁

This is probably my favorite Rush song and i have a few i love !!!.....the lead singer is Geddy Lee and i've always loved his unique voice !!!.....did u notice he was the vocalist, the bass player AND the keyboard player ????......he is an amazing talent !!.....RIP to Neal Peart, the drummer, he was one of the bestest !! :'(

Amazing music from three guys.

Great reaction!! Welcome to Rush. Their catalog is 40 years deep! You could listen to this entire album, Moving Pictures, and you won't find a bad song. If you want to dive into the rabbit hole....check out Natural Science and By-tor and the Snow Dog.

Oh. You've stumbled upon a magnificent rabbit hole my friend! Unreal talent AND there are only 3 guys! Everything from the album "Moving Pictures" is awesome! ENJOY!!

They is ripping it!

Great reaction brother! Keep rockin…

Thank you for reacting to this! Rush was a great band from my days in High school. I love seeing younger people discover new music. Keep up the good work on your channel! Another good one from Rush - SubDivisions

Keep going dig in , you will be amazed , good job , welcome to prog rock built by the embassadors themselves .

Getty Lee sings , plays bass and the synthesizer all at the same time CrAzY !

3 dudes make all of that noise Incredible!

Rush was phenomenal. And only 3 guys in the band. You should check out their song "The Spirit of Radio"

Neil Peart was the drummer. There is a video of him doing a drum solo on KZfaq. You really should check it out. Neil was absolutely a master. No doubt about it.

The late and much missed drummer, Neil Pate. The Professor, considered by many to be the best drummer ever.

Great reaction

Neil Peart is a drum god, the singer is also playing the keys AND the bass.

I always recommend having the lyrics to Rush songs available unless you like watching new movies on an old black and white TV? 😂 You are missing out on half the greatness.

They're switching between "the standard beat/time signature" of 4/4 to a 7/8 time signature. This is what causes one to lose track of the beat!

This song was in the Ready Player One movie trailer (during the car race) ... Might be where you heard it?? Have loved Rush since 1978 ... So sad when we lost Neil - - Shocked to see the video was blocked ... Rush used to never block anything

Rush are basically a self formed 'super group'. Neil Peart (RIP) is probably THE best rock drummer in history, Geddy Lee would be in the top five bassists of all time and Alex Lifeson in the top twenty lead guitarists of all time. They are phenomenal!

You NEED to listen to his drum solo. Live in Frankfurt

I’m glad you’ve discovered Rush! I’e been listeni g since the 70’s. I think you’d really like the Spirit of Radio, YYZ live in Rio, working Man live in Cleveland and Animate.

Wait until he finds Jethro Tull...

4/4 count to 7/8. And then around again. Rush are the best at sneaking in time signature changes without the listener feeling jarred by it. The best!

Best drummer ever. N.P.

If you like rush you need to check them out live xanadu live yyz live la villa strangiato live and working man live in cleveland these three guys are geniuses...amazing musicians

Neil is the creative mastermind and machine gun drummer. Geddy is the ultimate multitasking front man. Alex is the quiet assassin on guitar. Most efficient band ever and top four of all time easily with Yes, Led Zepplin, and Pink Floyd.

Just Three guys doing all this sound, AND they do it live too, not just in the recording studio.

If you want to check out the greatest thing ever, react to Rush 2112. It's 20 minutes long...is the whole one side of their album, made up of like 6 parts, but it takes you on a journey. It all blends together so you can't get the real effect by just listening to one or two songs. So..if you have time for a long reaction that's the one to do! 🔥

Nice reaction and appreciation for the music.

Nothing wrong with old school 😉

The lead singer also does Bass guitar, and the keyboard

Thank you for appreciating the complexity of this song. You have a wonderful ear for music!😊

Did u ever play Rock Band or Guitar Hero??? It was on them and where a lot of the younger generation has heard it 😉 Crazy thing is, all the instruments played in this song there’s only 3 members of the band Rush 😂

Gregg did you notice that they transition from a 4/4 to a 7/8 time signature during the instrumental and then back again? Seamless!

The drumming, specifically from the guitar solo to the end, is likely about as good as we will ever see...

LOL! Welcome to Rush!

I can’t hear the beginning this song without thinking of The Waterboy

RUSH Y"YZ" live in RIO also "Limelight" Search Neil Peart Drum solo

Listen to Rush, working man, subdivisions.... Great songs by Rush..

You might've heard part of this song in a Family Guy cutaway, where they show Chester the cheetah snorting a line of cheese while listening to this song. Lol Could've heard it in a lot of other places as well. It's an iconic song.

Keep the Rush coming. Obsessive fan base guarantees views😃

🤗 Back for Rush reaction rewatch. Dude, make a Playlist for us! 😍 More Rush please! 🥰🐰

Master class musicians for sure just subbed into your channel I'm digging my brother .

You gotta listen multiple times to truly appreciate the talent
