Great review. Just a note that, because all of the members of Rush were born and raised in the Canadian Province of Ontario, they didn't call the song YYZ "Why-Why-Zee" but rather "Why-Why-Zed." PS - all of the recommendations are correct about choosing the live in Rio version.
Great reaction to one of the best bands to ever take the stage. These guys have been rockin' me since the mid-70s. The Trees, Tom Sawyer, Working Man, and the rest of their songs, all have stood the test of time. And here we are in 2025, some fifty years later, and they still pierce the souls of listeners. Amazing, that =) Thank you for sharing your reaction to Rush.
Thank you for your excellent reaction, the lyrics are based on a poem published in 1816 by Samuel Coleridge titled “ Kubla Kahn”. The drummer Neil Peart was a prolific reader and wrote most of the lyrics for Rush. They really are true artists and my favourite band, please keep making these excellent reactions and enjoying yourself as much as you can.
RUSH could do it all! Drummer, Neil Peart, wrote the lyrics for RUSH and was one of the greatest drummers of all time! RUSH had an amazing 40plus year career and produces 19 studio albums as well as numerous LIVE LP's. ☮️
I consider Rush to be Progressive Hard Rock. You absolutely need to listen and watch the epic 2112 with the illustrations. 2112 as my intro to Rush and 2112 is a 20 minute long album side SciFi masterpiece.
@@VinE83656 I recommend listening to the album without the illustrations. The pictures are a distraction from the music. I think it's better to let your imagination work with the lyrics.
Be sure to see their Exit Stage Left video, where they combine The Trees and Xanadu into one of their best performances ever; their performance of Limelight from the same show features one of Alex's best live solos ever. Have a beautiful evening, and Rush on! 🎤 🎹 🎸 🥁 🎸 🐐 🐐 🐐
@@mdu2112 - Unfortunately, only on the album, not in the video, though. The _Flowers After Rainfall_ channel had done a very enjoyable reaction to that combo last week, too! 😀👍
Rush's 1976 release entitled 2112, was really the birth of Progressive metal. It is strange that no other hard rock group took up that challenge until 15 or 20 years later with the likes of Dream Theatre, Tool, and Porcupine Tree. King Crimson and YES were certainly the forerunners of prog-rock in the 70s, but they were never categorized as metal, (although King Crimson were often darker and more aggressive than any heavy metal group at the time) So Rush stood alone as the three brave souls who crossed over from hard rock/metal into progressive rock witb no concerns about anything radio friendly, no fear of alienating listeners with complex changes, and absolutely no regard for the wining critics or the petty complaints from the press and media. They toured and recorded and toured and recorded nonstop for decades and their insane fan base remained loyal right to tbe end. And those three dudes remained loyal to each other right to the end after over four decades!!! Rush have left all of their rock contemporaries humbled and envious..
Is a Poem by Samuel Taylor Coleridge. Kubla Khan or A Vision in a Dream. The first stanza begins with a fanciful description of the origin of Kublai Khan's capital, Xanadu. A Farewell To Kings: Neil Peart - Drums, orchestra bells, tubular bells, temple blocks, cowbells, wind chimes, bell tree, triangle, vibra-slap, timbales, glockenspiel. Geddy Lee - Bass guitar, twelve string guitar, Mini Moog, bass pedal synthesizer, vocals Alex Lifeson - Six and twelve string electric guitar, six and twelve string acoustic guitar, classical guitar, bass pedal synthesizer
Hopefully this will help u in ur Rush journey... The trio started out as a heavy rock band inspired by Led Zeppelin. Their 1974 album 'Rush' was a raw, heavy rock record w/ original drummer John Rutsey... who was replaced by Neil Peart in '74 for their 1st tour. He started writing lyrics for Rush and Geddy & Alex focused on the music - they wanted to explore their progressive rock influences (Yes, King Crimson, early Genesis, etc.) and their 70's records ('Fly by night'... 'Caress of steel' ... '2112'... 'A farewell to kings'... and 'Hemispheres') showed their technical and progressive side. However, Rush grew weary of the demands of their complex music and went for simpler songs, incorporating 'new wave' music (The Police, Blondie, Joy Division, etc.) and the 80's brought a new Rush sound w/ the albums 'Permanent waves' and their biggest record, 'Moving Pictures' in 1981. Geddy Lee and Neil Peart were eager to explore electronic music w/ synthesizers and beats and their 80's records were very keyboard-heavy ('Signals'... 'Grace under pressure' ... 'Power windows'... 'Hold your fire')... but guitarist Alex Lifeson had enough by 1989; he wanted Rush to be more guitar-oriented... That resolve produced the albums 'Presto' and 'Roll the bones' by 1991. Rush wanted a heavy rock sound in the 90's and delivered a return to their roots w/ the album 'Counterparts' in 1993 and 'Test for Echo' in 1996. Then, Neil Peart was struck by tragedy in 1997 - his daughter's death... followed by his wife passing away in 1998. He spent 2 years on his motorbike as Rush went on hiatus. Rush finally returned in 2002 w/ their heaviest album 'Vapor trails'... the lyrics were about Neil Peart's journey in the darkest years of his life... Rush balanced it w/ a lighter album 'Snakes & Arrows' in 2007... Their final album returned to a concept record (like '2112' or 'A farewell to kings') about a fictional journey - 'Clockwork Angels' in 2012. Neil Peart ended the album w/ a somber track 'The Garden' ...which reflected the conclusion of his life's journey. Neil Peart passed away in 2020 from cancer.
The multi-tasking these guys do to pull this off is incredible. Geddy is also playing synths with his feet at parts too. He has a set of Moog Taurus pedals which are like a set of synth organ pedals. When he first starts singing, he’s playing both bass and Taurus. Alex has a set of the pedals too, but I’m not sure if he plays them on this song. I know he does in La Villa Strangiato. Cheers!
This album was recorded at Rockfield Studios in Wales. It was actually on a farm and they recorded outdoors so the bird sounds are genuine ambience from nature.
Hey Ola, I agree with you on wishing that these songs would just go on and on. You can never get enough Rush as far as I'm concerned. You really should check out Rush 2112 it'll be just what you're looking for it has five or six (acts) but it's all part of the same song that took up one whole side of the album definitely react to the one with the video that goes along with the music. Just think of a graphic novel that has a rush song to go along with it. That's all I really want to say about it I don't want to ruin it for you. I hope to see it on your channel.
If you want a longer even more complex Rush composition check out Cygnus X-1 book l The Voyage from the same album and Cygnus X-1 book ll Hemispheres from their Hemispheres album, combined they comprise 28 minutes of the most complicated and difficult music the band ever performed and the stories kind of cool. 😊
Someone asked Alex Van Halen, during an interview, what it was like to be the greatest rock and roll guitarist alive. His response was "Well, I think you need to ask Alex Lifeson that question" LUL
Nice reaction to Canada's finest. YYZ call letters for Toronto airport. Geddy Lee's favourite band was YES, and you should check out their song Roundabout off the Fragile album. Enjoy the Rush YES journey ✨️🎶✨️ YES are progressive and judging by your love for Rush. Everything you said about Rush applies to YES is classical prog rock. 🍁⚘️🍁
Rush are attributed by many as the founders of progressive metal before anyone had coined the term, they were the original and best version. You have beautiful eyes mesmerising!
Wants some "long" Rush ? Get ahold of the Hemispheres album. They had a hard time initially learning to play those pieces that they wrote for that album.
YYZ in Rio is the version you need to do. Then either 2112 or Via La Strangiato. Of you want to see the birth of Progrssive Metal listen to By-tor and the Snowdog, 2112. Then you'll have to do "Cygnus-X1 Part 1, the Voyage" off of A Farewell To Kings... and then "Cygnus-X1 Part 2 - Hemispheres" off the hemisphere's album. You had to wait a year to hear the second half of the song as part 1 ends on A Farewell To Kings and Part 2 was the first song on Hemispheres.
An awesome Rush epic and is so great, studio or live. If you have not heard their best masterpiece, the 2112 suite, which was one side of that album, you really need to. Beyond amazing, one of the best prog - hard rock multi part tunes ever! Enjoy. 🔥🎵🎸🎤🎹🎶🔥
Great reaction Young Lady I’ve been listening to Rush’s music for 40 years and I am still not over it. Keep going down the Rush rabbit hole. You will not regret it. Out of their whole catalog (built over a 40 years career, "A farewell to kings" is my favorite album. I would also like for you to react to "Cygnus x-1" books I and II. I promise you, you are in for some journey. :-)
yeah rush is fantastic and super writers and arrangers. I and many have made their own music influenced by rush. I became progressive on guitar after their off timing, made me think outside the box. great reaction take care.
FYI - Not one Rush album sounds the same... they were always trying to find 'the better Rush' and incorporated so many musical influences into each record that they put out from 1974 to 2012. 'Xanadu ' was from 1977 and it was from their complex, epic era of making challenging music - Rush set a new level of technical excellence w/ their 70's records... the song was inspired by Neil Peart's love of fantasy fiction (I'm guessing) and apparently, the poem 'Kublai Khan' by Samuel Taylor Coleridge (who also inspired Iron Maiden's 'Rime of the Ancient Mariner') about a search for a mythical city.
Progressive Rock began in the mid sixties in Britain. You really should investigate more from that era to truly appreciate it. Yes is a band I would recommend and you should start with Roundabout from their Fragile album.
Rush were the prog fathers. More bands than I can name were spawned from Rush. That said, they evolved throughout their 40 years. Kind of always had the prog streak but less as they went along. Don't be afraid to explore their later works.
there s a couple really good live vids of SPIRIT OF RADIO - i believe one is from south america CHILE?ARGENTINA? and the other is from the SARS benefit concert from their home town TORONTO
If you enjoy prog music, try King Crimson- 21st Century Schizoid Man. This is a great song to start with when starting your journey to King Crimson, but really hard to go wrong with most of their songs.
Hi Ola, I love RUSH ❤️ Got all The Albums. Try listening to THE MUSICAL BOX, by GENESIS, from 1971 album Nursery Cryme. Keep Rocking 👍 Ronnie SCOTLAND 😊
Rush had so many great albums, but A Farewell to Kings holds so much emotion for me...yes, please do react to more from the album. YYZ is a good recommend, just know that it's an instrumental. You've already touched on Led Zepplin and Pink Floyd, so if you want to dabble in some more progressive rock check out "Roundabout" by Yes, and maybe 'Aqualung" by Jethro Tull.
YYZ is a worthy listen but not on my top RUSH songs. I suggest first you hear "Working Man" studio version and then the LIVE in Cleveland to hear the difference (last song played live ever). For complexity 2112 is a must listen. YES was an influence on RUSH and have so many great progressive songs like Starship Trooper.
Hi there. Yes, Rush was one of the true greats. If you choose YYZ, pick the YYZ from Live in Rio. I think you will be impressed.
Three super GOAT:s in the same band!
Greatest band on the planet!!!!
Was pink floyd apart from Roger Walters because he's a nut job 🥴
@@MikeBarratt-lk3gt a nut job that wrote some of the greatest music ever!!! Guess he's not so nuts, but more a genius?
With 19 studio albums they have a huge catalog of GREAT music! But their live performances are fantastic!
Great review.
Just a note that, because all of the members of Rush were born and raised in the Canadian Province of Ontario, they didn't call the song YYZ "Why-Why-Zee" but rather "Why-Why-Zed."
PS - all of the recommendations are correct about choosing the live in Rio version.
Great reaction to one of the best bands to ever take the stage. These guys have been rockin' me since the mid-70s.

You have discovered the best band in the history of rock music. They are best enjoyed live.

Was at the "Fairwell to Kings" album in Detroit with great seats.This concert will always be with me because how awesome it was
Look forward to seeing more of your Rush reactions. Welcome to the Rush rabbit hole. 🥸
Many times Live they will play "The Trees" and go right into "Xanadu" as if it was one song.
Great reaction as always to a great song
Wants some "long" Rush ? Get ahold of the Hemispheres album. They had a hard time initially learning to play those pieces that they wrote for that album.

YYZ is the next great Rush song to listen to. Also Farewell to Kings and Caress of Steel are two of my favorite Rush albums
YYZ (live in Rio version).
The crowd is amazing!
That was a live performance to boot. You talk about tight!
No it wasn't. They were just miming to the studio recording in this version.
Progressive Rock began in the mid sixties in Britain. You really should investigate more from that era to truly appreciate it. Yes is a band I would recommend and you should start with Roundabout from their Fragile album.
Supernatural synchronicity
You're in for an amazing journey with Rush, it'll definitely enhance your life, enjoy!
Beautiful lady. Thank you for wonderful reaction to rush🎉 greetings from scotland😎
My Rush suggestion is The Pass. Loving all your reactions! ❤
You speak progressive metal, Rush are arguably the grandfathers of progressive metal. Before YYZ, I strongly suggest 2112
The entire, original 2112 suite!
Try watch the live version, Olavity. Thanks for racting to. You're the best 👏
That double-neck bass must weigh more than Geddy

Try Jacob's Ladder.
Yes, YYZ...and then The Spirit of Radio 😛🤘
They made so many incredible songs it is hard to choose, but check out " Lime Light ".
PLEASE do "YYZ"'s live version in RIO instead of the album version!
Thanks for great reaction! ❤
May I suggest “malignant narcissism + der slagwerker”. Great musicianship and a mind blowing drum solo 😊
cheers from🇨🇦
Woo Hoo! 🤗 More Rush! Try YYZ Live in Rio! 🥰🐰
You’ve just been mind blown by the best
Working man is also a great one!
Geddy plays a 6 string near the end. Normally plays bass but switched in this tune.
12 string. Geddy's black doubleneck is bass and 12 string.
Just imagine being there live?
Greatest Rush masterpiece is "La Villa Striangiato".
You really need to check out Yes if you love prog music!
Go check out 1981 live in Montreal it is way better....considered the BEST live performance ever❤🇨🇦
You should check out Neil Peart drum solo you will love it. May he rest in Peace. Thanks Ola.
LOVE the reaction!!! ♥ ♥ ♥ Proverbs 27:19 As water reflects the face, so one’s life reflects the heart.
I'm dating myself horribly by saying this, but this was my introduction to Rush, back when I was in high school.
RIP Professor.
If you enjoy prog music, try King Crimson- 21st Century Schizoid Man. This is a great song to start with when starting your journey to King Crimson, but really hard to go wrong with most of their songs.
Definitely listen to the whole A FAIRWELL TO KINGS and HEMISPHERES
Rush is a lifelong journey. Please try to have lyrics available for rush reactions because the lyrics are as brilliant as the music.
This is usually for reactors further down the road. But since you're here jump in!
Hi Olavity, Defiantly YYZ live from Rio, Please. You know what your doing. Cheers.
Hi Ola,
I love RUSH ❤️
Got all The Albums.
Try listening to THE MUSICAL BOX, by GENESIS, from 1971 album Nursery Cryme.
Keep Rocking 👍

Oh sweet summer child......................LIVE 81
Do YYZ live in Rio. IMO the best version.
YYZ is a great instrumental but even it looks simple next to La Villa Strangiato.
The greatest.
"Y Y Zed" 😉
YYZ is a worthy listen but not on my top RUSH songs. I suggest first you hear "Working Man" studio version and then the LIVE in Cleveland to hear the difference (last song played live ever). For complexity 2112 is a must listen. YES was an influence on RUSH and have so many great progressive songs like Starship Trooper.
Very good rush
2112 is a must.
Another canadian progressif rock band: SAGA, try the song Mouse in a Maze
You are now ready for 2112.
Cool beans 😮
You really should read the poem now so you know what this song is based on.
the best of Rush is "2112"
You have no idea what you have started...you will not be able to stop now!
YYZ and then 2112
🙌🙌👋👋👏👏🌠🌠
Is it me or is this chick gorgeous!!!
