In my 60+ years of life, I don't think that I've ever seen a sane adult display as much child-like glee and wonder; as you do.  You are truly a pleasure to watch!  (more Rush please)

Neil Peart doesnt just play drums, he plays specific notes on the drums. Very VERY few drummers can do this. such a master. we miss him.

If anyone hasn't mentioned it, the tempo changes and style changes in this song are meant to signify the listener changing the radio stations.

I dont always listen to RUSH, but when I do, so does the neighborhood.

So us old Rush fans like me tear up watching folks discover this band that means so much to us. Shifting time signatures, vocals, incredible musicianship along with intelligent lyrics by three nice Canadian boys. You just got Rushed! Welcome aboard you've got plenty of fun homework.

Their disdain for the business of radio was shown when the label asked them to make a more radio friendly album, so they released 2112. A 24 minute epic that is not radio friendly, but a masterpiece. These guys embodied artistic integrity.

One does not simply "Like" Rush. I'm literally tearing up listening to a song I've heard a thousand times.

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tZHAFiegO74&t=550">9:10</a> - Donna Halper in the animation here was the first DJ to play RUSH in the US. She was a DJ at a radio station in Cleveland Ohio. She played the song Working Man from their debut album. The song was sooper identifiable to  the local workforce and became a 'rock anthem' nationwide shortly thereafter.   This is how RUSH went from a "Canadians only" band to a national and then international, worldwide sensation.

So I'm 67, and never got into Rush...until seeing this reaction a year ago. I have spent many hours watching many more Rush videos, and reactions, have bought their CDs, and at this late time in my life, I have become a huge Rush fan. Thank you so much Elizabeth,for your review and reaction! Now I have much more great music to get me into my 70's!

What Geddy, Alex, and Neil created won't be duplicated ever again.

"One likes to believe in the freedom of music, but glittering prizes and endless compromises shatter the illusion of integrity". Truer words have rarely been sung.
