What up Clouseau! 😎

I’m here daily… For life

Yo!

RUSH!!! Rock n roll y'all.

Us

i think that 'Permanent Waves' and 'Moving Pictures' are so immaculately produced and well-written and performed, they'll sound good forever. I love the other rush records, but i can't say that about them. i recently explored 'test for echo' and 'clockwork angels' , which i hadn't heard until this week, and was pleasantly surpised. i didn't really like those couple albums after 'signals'. however, with those two more recent albums i listed, they go for kind of a more punk sound, a bold move, i think.

@@jimmythebold589 I love love love Permanent Waves! As amazing as Moving Pictures is, PW is my go to! Aside from the amazing songs, to me, the production on PW is immaculate! It's like I'm in the studio with them!!! My sleeper is Grace Under Pressure. In fact, in the last decade or so, I've probably listened to it more than any other Rush album. I love the songs...The playing...Ged is singing in a lower more pleasing register...And while the production isn't perfect, it is still a sonically enjoyable experience. Happy listening 😃

This is my going home from work song for the last few months. Moving Pictures is my favorite Rush album also saw the Moving pictures tour in 81.

@@xtheunknown4662 Great song! Great tour! I was only 8 and didn't get into Rush till the mid 80s.

Way ahead of its time!!thafz the only way to put it

❤

Although I freaking LOVE so many RUSH songs, this is one of my top, say 3

LEGEND

From the norm he has now deviated

taps_13 Perfectly said my friend!!!!! I’m 54 and Neil has been in my life since I was introduced in 75..... RIP Neil my granddaughter is 6 and already has Tom Sawyer down ! That is air drumming at it’s finest

Andy Davis I was 9 years old hanging out in my friends basement, and his old brother was cranking Farewell to Kings. I’ve been hooked over since and I just turned 47 this year.

Alexander Eisen , so sad we lost The Professor but a great thing has come out of this I’ve me another true Rush fan that I can call a friend.. I’m originally from Florida but I live in North Carolina now let’s stay in touch and keep rockin!

❤

If I were to go to space someday and I would be only able to take a record player and an LP, I would choose Moving Pictures.

@@V.G.F. oòowwwfff tough one that so many belters out there.🤙🏻

@Charlie Suel me 2 I'm im 52 too.may 67. Im remember my brother placing his speakers out the window and cranking 2112 full blast daily. My mom thought we we had a spaceship ship in our backyard

@Charlie Suel think my 1st listen was anthem in 76 off all the world on vinyl..remember pot.lol

a hard time indeed 😔 i did not see this coming

Right there with you @GRILLBUOY101 having a hard time listening to them at the moment without crying. I got home Friday night after an unusually long day at work. I had told my bandmates earlier in the day that I wasn't going to be making to band practice due to the unexpected overtime. I got home and heard the news. Picked up the phone to message my best friend and guitarist of our band. He had already messaged me only a minute earlier. I sat there in disbelief for a few minutes. Then I questioned what the hell I was doing just sitting there. My mind kind of cleared and I asked myself, "What would Neil want me to do?" (Some may think that that sounds or is cliche/corny but I don't care). It became clear after that internal question was asked. I should go jam with my best friends. I NEED to go jam with my best friends. I could almost hear Neil saying, "Life is to short to pass up any opportunity to do something you love with those that you love." Thank you, Neil.

They cannot replace him. Just like when Bonham died. Zeppelin called it a day. As should Rush.

Rush is INDEED perfection, and I don't know if there are *better* trios, but The Police are pretty awesome

@@GameyRaccoon I agree - The Police ARE fabulous.

I'm also a fan of the Police

Rory Gallagher band was a trio for much of his career

So very true. Makes me think of: “It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society.”

@@beebelltoller4408 You have that right.

Old school Expos baseball cap . I love it

Best Comment Ever

Guess it wasn't old school at the time :-)

Not to mention, it looks like he has a boundary mic (intended to sit on the floor for room recording) taped to his shirt. Wonder if it's being used to give him some bass feedback from the other instruments.

Of course not. The most underrated guitarist ever is playing in another Canadian band, Saga.

I thought the early time in the band rode a bit on Alex's talent. Later, he found a better sonic range to fit in and fill the soundscape for the band.

so anyone not named Hendrix or Van Halen is "underrated"? I think I understand now.

@@Brand73 Page?

Even Canadians!

Their Masterpiece for sure. in my top 20 albums of all time!!

We don't have to send it. They helped write it!

@@sterlingblake7655 top 20??? What are the other 19???

PINK FLOYD: More, Darkside of the moon, Wish you were Here, Atom Heart Mother, Meddle, Obscured by Clouds, The Wall. THE SMITHS: Eponymous, Meat is Murder THE ROLLING STONES: Sticky Fingers. BLACK SABBATH: Paranoid, Sabbath bloody Sabbath: E.L.O.: Time. The BEATLES: Abbey Road, Sgt. Peppers. JEAN MICHEL JARRE: Oxygen. JIMI HENDRIX: Electric Ladyland???????? what are some of yours??

Well opinions have changed over the years in their favor

Critics always hated and pop culture ignored Rush - Because Rush never set out to appease them. Rush is just Rush - Love it or leave it.

Well stated my fellow RUSH fan 🤘🤘. And btw, phuck the critics we know RUSH kicks ass & that's all that matters.

@@KT2112-bootz Listening to RUSH since I was a kid back in the 70's - I firmly believe RUSH is better for it. And they'd probably say the same. Simply put, what we get is Lee, Lifeson and Peart when they're together in their groove, regardless of what anyone thinks. And there's no topping that vibe. Say an album wasn't a commercial success... Well, fuck it - They liked it !! That attitude and drive is what breeds true musicianship. They've always done their thing. Do your best at your thing - whatever it is.

Yes and the fact that they NEVER sold out... They were all incredibly talented and they all had such amazing integrity... RIP NP

No need to bring Jesus into it

He's ,Jesus's band leader now!

Fuk yeah he was

Let me fix your typo... "Peart was elevated from the norm... you're welcome." -- Jesus Christ

@@jeffblevins5899 Perfect

Don't mean to be a drag but this album is to overplayed and everyone thinks it's the best Signals is X2 over this

​@davidmaxwelloswald2220 as a huge fan of signals I completely disagree, no rush song/ album is "too overplayed" that just means its really damn good

@@davidmaxwelloswald2220 uh that would make you...wrong....but hey its YOUR opinion

It's the best band in the world.

that's not as impressive as the best band of all time.

indeed, because then you're comparing them to the minstrels in the middle ages.

No argument here brother

its the bascic sound of THE POLICE in combinatian whit some progressive elements. thankyou THE POLICE,thank you RUSH.

+David James well theres ERRA, protest the hero, periphery, intervals, polyphia, chon, plini, corelia, invent animate, i could go on..... you just dont hear about them

+David James OH Yeaah!! Modern bands have too come forth, and so go do your homework!! Oh, but not even nearly, remotely approaching Rush in any way shape or form. Not ever yet, ur right man. haha had you going for a sec right? Sad to say this, in regards to the state of creative musical production, but to this day it's 100% accurate. Rush rules!

None of those bands are on the same level, PtH is up there close. But guys like Polyphia don't have half of the songwriting ability.

Nate Davis LOL ok there bud. maybe to you and your music hating ways. I mean Boston is as good as rush i think. and there are a lot of bands better then boston today. music was never bad and it never will be. only idiots and the mainstreme will think so. so ya, MAINSTREAM is not as good, bvut polyphia, periphery, ERRA, ALL have an ability on par with if not more advanced then, older music.

Yeah, i'd agree. Boston is great, but specifically Polyphia is just wankery. Not real advanced song writing at all. I like most of those bands, minus Polyphia, but they aren't at Rush levels.

Evelation from the norm…

You're A rad dude. Timmy the camera eye is the apotheosis of everything rock-and-roll sought to achieve.

@@davemoss9505 Watch the Camera Eye video here on YT by Still Kickin, hands down 1 of the best fan video creations I've ever seen. His Natural Science video is truly a work of art, his timing and editing skills are absolutely amazing.

hey, everybody got mixed feelings, huh?

Funny enough I thought the same thing also !!😂😂 When I heard this song I loved the beat and I loved their musicianship in the video. When I got older and I really listened to the lyrics I finally got the message, excellent song !!!!😊😊😊🤘🏿🤘🏿🤘🏿

Daft Doggo+ Dude, you think this song is impressive drum-wise, Google ByTor & the Snowdog, or Natural Science, or 'Beneath, Between, Behind' or Bastille Day. Then you'll see exactly why Neil is revered with such awe, yessir!

Neil is ridic

Grundman - Add "The Camera Eye" in there too.

or just listen to Steve Gadd instead

You got your Ah ha backwards

"Only Rush can make a song with the lyrics “internal incoherence” make sense" I feel the same way about Midnight Oil, 'it aches like tetanus' .... kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mKtoar17lpvRqY0.html

It's also a look at the unstable and volatile nature of humanity and the mind. I always interpreted at "reverse polarity" as meaning that sometimes we need to change things and do the opposite of what we've been doing to see things from the other side or point of view. Neil was a true genius.

Looming low and ominous In twilight premature Thunderheads are rumbling In a distant overture

antonio villegas or Neil with the gods in battle rage on high.

I guess he wasn't in too much pain...

Hurricane Peart!

I wish I hadn't read this, I am crying all over again.

Legend of Percussion Drumming is for marching bands

I believe it was created on the synthesizer/sequencer, and then he had to transpose it to bass, if I remember. Sounds like it...it's a very atypical sort of bass line...but then that's true of much of his work.

It might just be my new favourite bassline

Most of they're done were masterpieces 🙏🏼🙏🏾🙏🏿💞💞💞 RIP Neil Peart

Yes this is VERY fun to play on the bass!

Why can't people just focus on the many who like it? But that is funny

Kat Knells actually the same haha

Kat Knells Happy 17th birthday

Dude! I wouldn’t doubt that one bit!!

I cried that day also, George. Been listening since I was 8 or 9. First

Neil's lyrics were incredible!

I too, started in ‘80. Saw 15 times and listened til day he died… now reminisce. They’ve been my favorite since the first day, first song,first time I heard them, and that will never change.

Hey man, I feel ya.

wow. i also say percussionist instead of drummer. never heard anyone else say that. songwriter also.

As a non-RUSH fan when MP came out, this was the song that caught my attention as well. The rapid Baba O'Riley-esque synth riff is what did it.

Moving Pictures was their first album I was introduced to - thanks to my Dad. For me though, Red Barchetta was and continues to be my fave track 🏎

Man mine was All the World's a Stage check that out haaaa bad ass that's what that is

This was the first Rush song I ever heard. I was 8 I knew good music when I heard it even then

❤

🤘🏼SICK🤘🏼

So many of those... Lol

You start digging and jesus you find a bunch lol

yeaaah! i love the work on drums... love that song!

One of their Best to Date!!!!.. 👍👍

Epic space reggae!

Yeah

enough with those underrated comment . you want ratting something ,just rat it.

U bettt🎉

@@MaudeWhite-yc6ji AMEN TO THAT BROTHER 🙏🏻

I'm 52 years old black guy I remember watching MTV just to catch Rush videos... Now I shed tears wishing I could go back!...The 80's was different for hip-hop and Rock coming out of the 70's!

theyre congas. bongos are the small ones that about the size of a hand

Agreed the lyrics are mind blowing!

those are my two fav rush albums, hand down. they're immaculate. i recently discovered 'clockwork angels ' and 'test for echo', i kinda lost interest in rush after the 'signals' album, but i like the turn towards a punk sound in those albums, and i like geddy's more subdued voice, too...

Or Permanent Waves and Signals transitioned into and out of Moving Pictures - I see MP as the peak in many ways...

Well said ... Great observation

I thought this too. The first side was basically their classic old style sound while the 2nd side was towards the direction they were headed in.

@Psyche In modern MTV "M" stands for "trash"

Psyche it’s a joke. mtv used to actually be something. you can’t even name one good thing about it now.

Moronic nowadays

To me it's rather "eMpTy Vision".

geddy Lee ain't too bad either

It's NO MORE I saw (on KZfaq I think) :(

I hear its getting renovated

Doesn't it just personify beautiful 70s/80s studio vibes?! Beautiful view, big, fat sounding mixing desk, gorgeous wood cladding in the live room, one of the best bands ever to have existed being able to do their thing without worrying about cramping their style because they've got full confidence in the room.... Garage band can only get us so far in my opinion.

Rush, the complete loss of ego

Perfection, lyrically and musically

I used to have the lyric “Everybody’s got mixed feelings about the function and the form” as my signature on a car forum. I was driving a polarizing but awesome machine. This song has always been gold. Glad to see the love for it here.

Theyre just never ending goodness in SO many ways...Utterly ridiculously good..

Definitely their most underrated track

@@singingsheepytps9240 One of a multitude.

Mankind’s stepping stone I suppose =]

So cool, so smooth

I love how the next album is titled "Signals"...a direct connection to this song

@@dcb1138 Sonically/musically, this song sounds like foreshadowing of Signals.

Marathon 2112 ?

Neil Peart.

pure magic indeed. shout out to ged that bass fill gives me goosebumps everytime, especially the time machine tour version

Same here. This song is amazing, and is as good as any song off of the Moving Pictures album.

+Stacey Ricksy amazing musical preferences for woman,you must be extrodinary .....woman!

Stacey Ricksy yeah underrated for sure

Stacey Ricksy i already do
