    Geddy Lee of Rush recently talked about the last days of Neil Peart... He said the drummer was diagnosed in 2016 w/ cancer (Peart passed away in 2020) and he spent his final days listening to all the Rush records he had written and recorded ... He was analyzing his own work w/ the band and shared w/ Lee and Alex Lifeson how proud he was of the music they had created w/ Rush.
    Peart apparently spent his last days as a husband to his 2nd wife and father to his little daughter... Lee said he was just happy being a librarian in his spare time since reading books was his passion outside of music.

      Absolutely brilliant man all around. Several years ago I turned my daughter (14 at the time) on to Rush and explained some about them. She immediately “got it” and pillaged many of my Rush CDs. (Hemispheres is her fav.) When we lost Mr Peart, she literally cried for 2 days. If you don’t “get it,” that’s ok I guess, but if you “get it,” it’s something only other true Rush fans will understand.

    The last song on the legendary Moving Pictures, I always feel this gets overlooked among Tom Sawyer, Red Barchetta, YYZ and Limelight, but this is such killer song and I always loved when they played it live. You mentioned the different sounds of this song, including reggae. Rush was feeling influences from the Police at this time and that would carry over into their next album, Signals. Great reaction.

      I originally had a hard time getting into this song, and when I heard all the big changes to their music with the next album ("Signals"), it seemed like this song was a sort of harbinger of things to come. More emphasis on synths and less on guitar, which would last through most of the 80s. But in time, I came to appreciate all of it - Vital Signs, as well as the next couple of albums. What helped a LOT was their (IMHO) return to exciting music with Power Windows, and the beginning of the return to guitars at the forefront (although the synths would still be a major component of their music for the decade.

    • @screwyootube1

    This was a treat. As a teenager I discovered Rush during their synth period, but the album I discovered was 2112. I bought their albums in no particular order, so I was being exposed to their early, pure rock period, their heavy prog period and their synth period all at once. It was like falling in love with three different bands. And when I finally had all the albums and could appreciate their work more fully -- all the places they had taken me, all the experiments they conducted, all the elements they pulled together -- I felt like there was no one else like them.
    Rush took a lot of risks. They even bet their careers on some of their high concept music. I'm sure they would have been successful playing three minute songs about women and cars, but they refused to compromise their visions. In the end they found unique and genuine sound and a loyal audience. That's something to admire!
    I love watching you discover them. Thank you for sharing that.

Thank you Amber for your perfect reaction, both in your body language and in your words, as you two really understood what Rush was going for here. Yes, Neil Peart was building up and building up the intensity at the end of the song because the song was getting bigger, more epic, more emotional and he was drumming to meet that epicness and emotion!

You can't do that, it's all or nothing in order to get the full energy vibe & affect of side 1 on 2112. Not to mention it's just wrong seeing as though side 1 is really one complete song altogether. So why would you only listen to half of the song & stop, right? "I know it's most unusual. To come before you so. But I found an ancient miracle I thought that you should know. Listen to my music & hear what it can do. There's something here as strong as life. I know that it will reach you." Just saying... 🤘😜🤘 +Peace & Rock n' Roll 4 Your Soul My Friend+

    Rush's album Grace Under Pressure had the biggest impact on me. I was in the military when it came out and it spoke to a lot of things going on then. The song 'The Spirit of Radio' from the album Permanent Waves was on my alarm clock and something I woke up to every morning for years. Lyrics:
    "Begin the day With a friendly voice
    A companion, unobtrusive
    Plays the song that’s so elusive
    And the magic music makes your morning mood
    Off on your way
    Hit the open road
    There is magic at your fingers
    For the Spirit ever lingers
    Undemanding contact
    In your happy solitude."

    My favorite song of Moving Pictures. Kind of forgotten because all the hits that came from that album. plus, I love that Neil peart is wearing a Montreal Expos cap in the video. The album was recorded in Morin-Heights Studio in the Laurentian's ( Québec).

    Just listened to an interview with producer Terry Brown on the Rush FanCast/Podcast, who produced this track/album, along with over 10 of the other Rush studio, live and remastered releases and he had some great memories from these recording sessions. Right there with one of my favorite closing tracks. Geddys new book was just released and he has a new docu series on Paramount+ in December where he interviews other bass players. Love seeing these guys still out there and being recognized for the brilliance as musicians, but also just good people.

    RUSH was the equivalent of a gateway drug for me into both Prog Rock and eventually metal in the mid 80s. One of the most talented and creative bands of all time, IMO. Each member a great musician, and their lyrics are unrivaled. My first reaction video of yours and I immediately subscribed. My 73 year-old rocker mother actually turned me onto your channel. She gave me my love for music. I'm about to binge on your reactions now. Thank you.

    Rush is the greatest band ever. This song was inspired by their Fabulous Men side band they had in the studio while waiting for the producers in the recording studio.

    In a recent interview with Geddy Lee the interviewer said he always plays a song of the band he interviews. He asked Geddy what song he wanted him to play and Geddy chose Headlong Flight. I beg of you to react to that song, it’s an absolute monster of a banger off of their last album. If not for me, for Geddy 🫤

    I had the honor of seeing them three times in concert, once in Tulsa and twice in Oklahoma City. They were just awesome beyond words in concert.
    Three songs of theirs you need to react to are Mystic Rhythms, possibly the most mellow song they ever did, Roll the Bones, containing the only rap they ever did, and The Garden, the last song on the last album, which is possibly the best, deepest song they ever made.

    The device strapped to Neil in this video is a special recording device. The drum kit was not mic’ed up for a traditional recording. This device would not not record the sticks hitting the drums and cymbals but not record the resonance from inside the drum. That’s why the drum hits sound so crisp.

    Jay and Amber Always Love when you react to my Favorite band Rush. Please react to "Natural Science" my favorite song they played in live. Mind blowing song. 'Jacobs Ladder", "Witch Hunt", "Function and Form". "Everybody got to Elevate from the Norm" Rest in Peace Neil Ellwood Peart. Brillant lyricist and drummer. Geddy is touring the US right now doing spoken word of is memoir book call "My Effin Life", On Sunday Nov. 19th, Geddy was in Cleavland Ohio. Where the first Rush song 'Working Man was played on the radio at the Station WMMS 100.7 by DJ Donna Halper in March of 1974. Donna was the special guest on stage with Geddy. What a full circle moment to witness almost fifty years later.

    AHHhhhh... "Vital Signs"... the quintessential RUSH offering of AWESOMELY SONG WRITING & LYRICS, wrapped up in the reggae feel/progressive rock (did you both catch the time signature changes/song's tempo changes throughout this course of instruction??? OF COURSE Y'ALL DID!!!!). Now, THAT ALONE is GREAT MUSICAL TALENT. BUT, to take a mundane concept of what it means to be human & of HUMANITY, weave such MAGIC from it, & make it SOUND like a organic feeling... SUCH A GREAT CONCEPTUAL Artistic experience. Love is the GREATEST OF ALL THINGS in life (The Beatles wrote it... ALL you need is LOVE!!!). I look forward to seeing your reactions... Keep doin' YOU... Peace, Love, & Liberty. MIC DROP 🎤.

    They really laid into the reggae vibe that that hinted at on the previous LP on this track. For a certified blues nut like Alex to pull off these skanky riffs is really quite amazing. Then the slow burn outro bringing in the keys and Pearts freak outs. Unique

Here’s one you’ve GOT to check out and I don’t think any of my peers would disagree. Natural Science from the Permanent Waves album 1980. The album just prior to Moving Pictures 1981 which Vital Signs was on. C’mon folks. You just GOTTA check that one out! Peace and be safe. Thanks (and btw, a live version would be fantastic, but for your first time hearing it, I recommend a version with the lyrics to follow- deep stuff…)
