I'm a percussionist and always idolized The Professor but even I will admit that its Geddy's Bass on this song that stands out. 🤌🤘🤙
Neil only get's to be Neil because of what Geddy and Alex put down. It's symbiotic
@@colinburroughs9871 Definitely, as is likewise in most bands with extremely talented musicians, especially prog.
YYZ is the airport code for Toronto
They are all awesome, but I lose my shit at Alex’s solo.
The "Live in Rio" version of YYZ is amazing. People singing along with an instrumental.
I forever maintain the Rio crowd is the absolute all-time greatest representation of the Rush fandom…they did us proud!
Brazilian crowd has to be the best crowd in the world. System Of A Down played on Rock in Rio 2015 and it was nuts, everyone was shouting not only every single word in every song but also chanting all of the main guitar riffs. Those guys never disappoint.
We did at every Rush concert in Toronto in the 80s too.....
Me desculpa por não falar inglês, mas irei tentar sintetizar o que aconteceu naquele dia no Maracanã. Sou frequentador do estádio desde 1983, tive o prazer de estar em dois show do Rush no RJ. O público estava tão eufórico, feliz e totalmente fascinado com aquela fabulosa oportunidade, que todos os momentos foram perfeitos. Lembro do público pulando no Yyz, cantarolando sons do baixo, vibrando no 2112. Entramos em êxtase em Tom Sawyer, chorei com The Trees. Em 2010, fui às Lacrimas após o último minuto no sambódromo, sabia que dificilmente retornariam ao Rj. Lembro quando tive a premonição da morte do Neil, isso aconteceu três dias antes do anúncio do falecimento. Estava saindo do banheiro, parei no espelho e comecei a chorar do nada. Ali veio uma sensação estranha, naquele momento sabia que alguém do Rush iria morrer. Minha esposa percebeu e perguntou: O quê está acontecendo? Eu falei: Tive uma sensação de morte muito forte, acho que alguém do Rush vai morrer. Ela já foi me acalmando , mas aquilo não deixou minha cabeça. Três dias depois veio à notícia. Foi muito dolorido, tive que parar de trabalhar. Infelizmente não tinha condições emocionais pra continuar dirigindo. Até hoje lembro daquela sensação estranha.
180,000 Brazillians, to be exact!!
Rush Moving pictures album is a awesome album!!!! You can’t go wrong with Rush🤘🔥🔥🔥
This song is SO much more amazing with headphones. Hearing every little detail up close and personal to my ear drums makes all the difference.
I love listening to a delightful, beautiful piano arrangement while looking at a tee shirt of death and despair. Always fun intros from y’all…
😂 The dichotomy that is Great Measures
Merry Christmas gentlemen and thanks for the RUSH!!!
Merry Christmas! 🎁🎄
Rush are the progenitors of Progressive Metal. They bridged the gap between bands like King Crimson and bands like Led Zeppelin. You can't have a Tool or Dream Theater without Rush. Even genres like Thrash and Death Metal have Rush DNA running through their music. The saying goes: Rush might not be your favourite band, but it's probably your favourite band's favourite band.
Eh....King Crimson pretty much started Prog Metal all by themselves. Rush, while great, never got as heavy as Crim, not even close.
Rush is "prog" for hard rock fans who were into bands like Zeppelin, Sabbath, The Who, etc. Some moments of complexity thrown in for good measure but nothin too crazy
@timcardona9962 agree to disagree. Crimson approached the line but never reached it. Rush, straddled the line with feet planted firmly on both sides.
@@CanadianTimeLord Can you recommend a Rush song that you think is as heavy as Larks Tongues in Aspic? I have not heard one
@timcardona9962 Lark's Tongue is heavy, in parts, but there's no metal there. I mean, you can hear all the later bands the members went on to. ELP, Yes, etc. It's rock and jazz but not metal. 2112, By-Tor and the Snow Dog, Cygnus X-1 are all harder than this, and that's just they're better known stuff.
@@CanadianTimeLord Have you heard Level Five or anything from Thrak? I'm pretty sure that is considered metal.
I think you and I just have different ideas of what constitutes 'heavy' & 'hard' with regards to rock. For me its more than just power chords, which is the only aspect of Rush that I see as 'metal'
For rock bass players this is a holy grail , because if you can play it properly you are an awesome bass player . It is considered one of the hardest bass lines in rock .
The Pianist in my mind gives the perfect explanation of what Jazz is or once was.
If you can't recognize the song being played? This is Jazz.
The drummer himself would have told you himself. He's not the best, but he was determined.
His influences were mostly Jazz drummer's to the point where late in his career he decided to learn how to play holding his sticks in the traditional style. Pretty amazing Testament to his determination in itself.
The guitarist leans towards a classical approach, and tries to bring this style to the table.
The bass player? Well I'll just leave it up to the imagination what he brings to the table.
My conclusion is none of them would have been able to shine so brightly without the other. They were truly Soul mates that the universe permitted to come together to make music for us all.
Thank you for the video.
The song Judson was playing at the beginning of the video is one of my wife's favorite Sheriff songs and was our wedding song. Love it!!
That was really interesting playing.
** Y Y 'Zed' as we say up here. Thanks for this.
This RusH song inspired me to become a drummer in a neighborhood band at 11yrs young! Excellent choice 😁
Celine Dion??? 😂😂😂 Well, at least she is Canadian. 🤣🤣
Too funny!
Just a FYI, we pronounce is YYZED in Canada
Cheers
More evidence there's things wrong in Canada- no one ever finishes reciting the Alphabet with "zed"
There's no way Judson has never heard this! Lol. Y'all should check out Two Minutes to Late Night's cover of Rush's Anthem. It features Danny Carey and Les Claypool!
WORLDS GREATEST 3 PIECE ORCHESTRA🥁🎸🎸🎙🎶🎵🎼
ANY song on MOVING PICTURES is a good song.
You need to see the Best Live Performance of all time
RUSH - Xanadu - Live In Montreal 1981 (2021 HD Remaster 60fps)
Alex Lifeson - 6 string guitar, 12 string guitar, pedal synthesizer, volume pedal;
Geddy Lee - Vocals, bass guitar, 6 string guitar, foot pedal synthesizer, electric piano/synthesizer;

Based on Kubla Khan (Xanadu) by Samuel Taylor Coleridge Coleridge composed his poem, ‘Kubla Khan’, in a state of semi-conscious trance either in the autumn of 1797 or the spring of 1798 and published in 1816. The whole poem is pervaded by an atmosphere of dream and remains in the form of a vision. The vision embodied in Kubla Khan was inspired by the perusal of the travel book, Purchas His Pilgrimage. Coleridge had taken a dose of opium as an anodyne, and his eyes closed upon the line in the book, “At Zanadu Kubla Khan built a pleasure palace.” But this opened his creative vision, and the poem of about 200 lines was composed in this state of waking dream. On being fully awake, he wrote the poem down. The theme of the poem is unimportant. It describes the palace built by Kubla Khan, the grandson of Chengis Khan, the great rule of central Asia.

Should always shor Rush live to new Rush listeners. YYZ live at rio. Wish he would have watched that
❤❤❤
🙏❤🌹 Neil 🌹❤🙏
Rush can sometimes hurt your brain when figuring out the time signatures. I prefer early Rush from the 70's, but this song and the album Moving Pictures are great 👍
When Judson says 'jazz' I assume he means 'fusion'. Geddy Lee WAS a big Jeff Berlin and Bill Bruford fan around this time, but in all honesty Rush couldn't swing if their life depended on it. Neil Peart went through a phase in the 90's of paying tribute to Buddy Rich, but he never got close to putting any jazz drummers out of work.
“And the space he invades, he gets by on you” Ya gotta do it
YYZ is the VOR-DME (freq 112.15 on your aircraft navigation radio) for Toronto Pearson International Airport used for Aircraft navigation the beacon is at the end of runway 6L/24R the first 30 seconds or so are in Morse Code for that VOR I have heard many times as a private pilot ( lost my ticket for health reasons so I don't fly anymore) flying in and out of Toronto Buttonville Airport. Here is the actual VOR-DME of that beacon with the drums removed as Neil was playing Morse Code on the drums ua-cam.com/video/1lRqxURxxM4/v-deo.html
Everything Rush did was 'technical'. I think we're all in agreement that even if they had given rise to entire genres of crap, it wouldn't take away from what they were able to accomplish. This is pretty much my favorite Rush song, and it has always sounded to me like they were simply having a blast playing it.
Judson is correct.. Rush is the bridge between jam bands (jazz fusion) and heavy metal.. Umphree's McGee is a great jam band that a metalhead can listen to, they get pretty heavy at times
YYZed ........ rhythm of idea code .
IMHO The best of Neils drum solos.. is in YYZ on Exit Stage Left. Amazingly good solo, and the piece of music itself is amazing.
Actually the only one playing the Morse Code characters for the letters YYZ is Neil, on the bell of a ride cymbal, in the intro.
Proceed Richard
You all should play him By-Tor and the Snow Dog. Their beginning of storytelling and proggy jams from Fly By Night. Always a favorite among Rush fans
Merry Xmas guys, thanks for the great content!!!
CYYZ is actually the airport code for Pearson International Airport under the ICAO CYYZ which is what Nav Canada and the FAA use. ITIA CODE is YYZ when I had to file a flight plan we always had to use the ICAO code now on your luggage tags it does use YYZ. YYZ in a flight plan would be a waypoint like this CYYZ-YYZ- KBUF would be Toronto Pearson to Buffalo NY
Great choice. This was originally a bass/drum thing that Alex added a melody line to. That’s why it is a bass/drum call and response in the section just before the guitar solo. To feel the impact of this song, you need to check out the RUSH in Rio version of this. The huge crowd “sings” the melody.
I don't think that was YYZ. It was the one that was recorded in New York. Malignant Narcissism maybe?
You mentioned a caravan; there is a song called Caravan from their Clockwork Angels Album; the live version from the Time Machine Tour is pure 🔥. Seasons Greetings from Toronto!
🎤 🎹 🎸 🥁 🎸 🔥 🔥 🔥
Alex plays the tarus pedals as well
Red Barchetta... That's the song you're thinkng of...
ths for the video, more pls
Get to the live drums with the jazz break in it already!! 👍👍
As I've said many times these are the three greast musicians of all time so incredibly underrated
Great reaction guys. So much more great music by Rush to get to. Would love to see a reaction to The Camera Eye .
So no Paula Abdul. LMFAO!!!!
Infant Annihilator - Blasphemian (J/K, kinda)
I bought this album when it was released and worked my way backwards into the 70's Rush.
We blasted this album on boombox and we were hated everywhere.
But man, Moving Pictures is such great album.
YYZ also a fun airdrum song.
🌴🔥Hell Gya 👍🏽 been waiting for some classic Rush reactions
🌴RIP NEIL 🥁🙏🏽
With regards to bass playing - Turn the Page live might just cause a few heads to explode :-)
Red Barchetta is a must.
Umphrey's has played a lot of Rush at their shows so it makes sense that Judson hears that.
I agree with Rush being the predecessors to a lot of jam bands. Rush and Phish are two of my all-time favorite bands with Grateful Dead completing my top three. I always thought Phish was like the baby of Grateful Dead and Rush.
Agreed.
Your metal head friend, knows real music....
The Umphreys McGee reference is spot on, love Umph!
2112 🤘🤘🤘😈
Great song choice, shows the brilliant musicianship of these three.
This is one of my favorite Rush songs (and videos.) I always thought that the Gorillaz were inspired by this videos art style.
Xanadu live from exit stage left next plz
Great song. I didn’t know the background that’s cool thanks. Merry Christmas. You guys are great.
Merry Christmas to you and yours!
After this reaction, have him see Rush doing this song live in concert? Especially in Rio?!
Let your pianist friend know that Neil Peart aka Professor always learning drumming styles such as Jazz.
SO many artists have pegged them as an influence, from Foo Fighters to Dream Theater to Primus to Tool to Metallica to Jack Black! And many, many more............
Merry Christmas! From Rush I highly recommend listening to "Freewill"!
has to be, lol
I am a big metal and jam bands. hearing Umphreys McGee and Phish brought was a great crossover.
Wanna go back in time to the late 60s and show Judson the best drum solo of all time?
Emerson Lake and Palmer - Tank
This song began a just bass & drum and Alex filled in his part.
All of Rush's recordings were tight, but this might be the tightest of all. Supurb.
Waiting for a Gentle Giant reaction
Red Barchetta!!
ESL version with embedded drum solo. Slick.
Why - Why - Zed !
“You just know he’s gonna to that fucking drum solo dink dink dink “ bubbles
Would love to see a reaction to Neil Peart playing at the Buddy Rich remembrance concert. Neil Peart was a huge Buddy Rich follower.
Hello sirs! This was the first CD I ever bought and am a huge Rush fan forever! JAGUAR GOD - MASTODON........
Love it. Trivium Shadow of the abattoir!
A three piece band being hampered by having fewer options for filling space actually gives the 3 instruments (besides geddy having 3 roles, vocals, bass and synth) their time to shine, instead of being relegated to having a secondary role. Rush was my introduction into understanding how important bass is, or being an example as to how much the lower end can impact the overall sound of a band. In my youth being a fan of thrash metal, specifically Metallica, kind of gave me the impression that bass wasn't really that impactful or important. But hearing a skilled bass player can really fill out the empty spaces and really add alot of power and nuance at the same time. Like listening to a gifted pianist, you can be mesmerized by their right hand while the left is actually laying the foundation, and can be done in a way that stands on it's own, but is often overlooked because the higher notes are more easily heard by novice ears.
Have you heard any Nuclear Power Trio, its all impossibly sick instrumental jams 😅heavy metal guys who must have heard this song when they were young
You have to "nyetflix and chill" some day
Great video, would love to see a reaction to one of Pain of Salvation songs. On a Tuesday is one of my favourites or really anything from remedy lane. Merry Christmas
YYZed
Richard looks a little bit like William T. Riker
While Tom Sawyer is kind of like an obligatory dive into Rush, I would suggest Afterimage. I think Judson would love the guitar solo sections and the drums throughout. The video is a great highlight of Peart's machine like ability.
Great content as always gents. Merry Christmas!
Or "Losing It" for the cool Electronic violin work.
Or even just limelight. I prefer that one to Tom Sawyer
@@anthonydawson8080 I'll never mind TS, but over time I've dissected that tune to the point where I don't need to hear it and it has a pretty obvious knock- the sweeping Taurus pedal sound is overused in the tune and it's kind of not the greatest synth sound
Love the open. Foreeldoe
My First thought was "Oh! It sounds like Opeth!" 😁
You need to see - and hear - a hundred thousand Brazilians singing along with the melody.
Do "Natural Science" or "Freewill", please.
Both are amazing songs
Absolutely, bro. \,,/
Listen "La grasa de las capitales" by Serú Giran, the best supergroup from Argentina. It will be surprise both of you, I'm sure.
WY WY ZED! Only Americans say Zee, everyone else in the English speaking world says ZED. Even the Germans say ZETT.
Good stuff - Always do live versions of Rush.
Not sure if anyone has commented on this, but that's a lovely arrangement of Sheriff's 'When I'm with you'
Yesss! Thank you! Finally…..such a great song
This song is such a funny one to listen to! :)
Rush, the second best band of all time!
Maybe third after zeppelin and sabbath. But you cannot forget the who. 😊
I personally think that the best live version of YYZ is on Different Stages. I mean have you listened to Geddy on that track? The bass is on FIRE
It may sound 'improv' but actually all their songs are choreographed and thought through to the nth degree, nothing accidental, but because they play so tightly as a music unit they make it sound loose and improv which I think is a testament to Rush's brilliance and talent as musicians
After he completed his piano piece, I was waiting for him to say the name of the song was "Lick My Love Pump" but alas, no such luck
yy zed eh!
Awesome song, outstanding band.
Tom Sawyer would be great to react to, try one of the epics as well!
Do Closer, Capital G, Came Back Haunted, Hurt next
My favorite Rush Album :)
Another great reaction guys.
I wonder why you guys didn't do Primus until now ?
Judson seems like a big Bass fan so I guess he either knows them pretty well if not I'm pretty sure he would love that.
On the heavier side I would love to see you react to Swedish Post Metal band Cult of Luna.
We’ll do some Primus soon. That’s a band I’m not too familiar with. Probably only a handful of songs that I know. Do you have a suggestion for where we should start?
@@GreatmeasuresI’m not the op but Hamburger train is a deeeeeep cut I always mention. But something digestible maybe lacquer head or John the fisherman
@@Greatmeasures If you ask my personal favorite I would say Frizzle Fry, in my opinion it's their best song (and album).
They have a lot of "hits" that really any could work: Tommy the Cat, Jerry Was a Racecar Driver, Wynona's Big Brown Beaver, Jonh the Fisherman, Mr. Krinkle, Too Many Puppies, it's hard to pick, they're not really a 1 hit song band but those are some of their more famous songs. :)
wynona's big brown beaver
Creo que debería ser la primera
.... and please do some anathema
I believe he never heard of Rush -- as much as I believe Geddy Lee never heard of Mozart
Dream teather count of tuscany
Xanadu gotta be the next
Yeah, but there's no improv in this at all. There's very little improv in any of Rush's music. Even during their loosest periods, only the tempo really varied.
The Grateful Dead were THE precursors to all jam band music and maybe Pink Floyd, but I'm sure there's a lot of jam bands that include Rush as an influence. It's the display of ability they share, that is the common core.
Geddy uses Taurus bass pedals, to hold down the low end while play keys and sometimes even while playing the bass. Just like a big pipe organ player. Total badass.
It's totally understandable with all the stuff that Ged and Neil were doing, to overlook the fact that Alex was the most talented overall player. I can't think of a better guitar player. Doing most of the heavy lifting, while staying out of the spotlight... like Rick Wright in Pink Floyd.
Geddy is the most talented overall player in Rush who playing has stayed the most consistent, but it's all largely symbiotic anyway- they all benefit from the talent levels all being generally on par and able to keep up with each other.
Are you and your friend familiar with Godspeed You! Black Emperor? Or what about Swans?
I weep with joy I grew up at a time when this kind of music was actually being made! (as opposed to a time when naff reaction videos about it were being made).
Plenty of great music being made today, but Rush will always be the standard.
@@emjem99 Reaction videos are just 'the snake swallowing it's tail' kind of stuff
@@jeffsimon9594 my comment was about the fact that great music is still being made today. I'm a little baffled by your reply.
@@emjem99 You're far from alone. To most young people the insanity of reaction videos is completely normal.
@@jeffsimon9594 In general I agree, although there are a couple that take the time to actually discuss and educate about the music. Doug Helvering, for example. These silly twits that just ramble on or express their fluffy opinions are just annoying.
Gotta get boffa dem great measures in.
since they're canadians, they call it yy-zed
