- One year ago I had this idea to make a video while in quarantine. I was feeling pretty down about the passing of Neil Peart and about the Pandemic...I needed to be creative and play! I contacted Alex and Ra about doing a Rush song and video and they both liked the idea. I felt that they were probably feeling the same way I was, and that this would be a great way of jamming and entertaining while we were stuck home. The response to the initial video was overwhelming! It really made us feel good during a bad time. A whole year ago...I cant believe it! It ended up being a year of making music and videos after all; I now have a record that's coming out May 14 with most of the Jams. The Rush songs will be out on a special EP on Record store day in November. This song will be included on that. Subdivisions is probably in every Rush fan’s top 10 songs, definitely one of their best. The keyboards dominate this tune and Neil's sound on it is so unique! His drum fills are so precise and powerful...like little hooks throughout the song, an air drummer’s dream! The lyrics tell a tale of life in the burbs and being shunned when you don't meet a certain standard.
Subdivisions
In the high school halls
In the shopping malls
Conform or be cast out!
@alexskolnik @ra @brandon bring it big time - Alex captures Lifeson’s vibe so well, Ra kills Geddy’s bass parts and Brandon brings his amazing voice. We’d like to welcome @meeeun ,(Thanks to Alex for the suggestion), she is an awesome musician and kills the keyboard parts on this. I hope you enjoy this one, It may be one of the last ones for a bit...unless Alex wants to do that Emerson lake and palmer tune ( hahahahaha)
Somewhere The Professor is smiling
Yeah!! One of my favorites, an anthem for some us. Thanks for sharing.
That was awesome! The Professor is smiling!
Great job Everyone!! Signals was one of my favorite albums growing up. You all sounded excellent; funny how it takes 5 mortals to reproduce the sound and musicianship of 3 legendary immortals whose music will outlive all of us! Even got the vocals!! Thanks for the trip down memory lane. Pretty apropos song for the times we find ourselves in unfortunately. Super performance.
VERY GOODS !!!!
Fuck this gets me hyped up! Makes me want to get on stage, it just groves like a monster. Great job!
🤘🤘
Great job!!
I get to be #1K in the like column - should be 10K! This is awesome!
This song is not just for outsiders, it can include all kinds of situations. I was a very athletic 2 sport athlete who suffered from anxiety so I hid most of the time during high school and most of my friends were the "outsiders" This song always resonated with me..
Thanks to my uncle for make me hear Rush...Signals Is another piece of art
Charlie kills everything he plays. He is never brought up when ppl talk to me about amazing drummers. I bring him up. I have for YEARS told many ppl to listen to Charlie. He is absolutely amazing and will ALWAYS be one of my top favorite drummers of ALL TIME. I recognize your immense talent Charlie. You're a master of your craft and you seem like a grounded person.
CHARLIE LIKED MY COMMENT!!!!!!
I'm sitting in my backyard drinking a beer in Hayden, Idaho and Charlie freaking liked my comment!!!! 5/1/21 at 1922 hrs. I'll NEVER FORGET THIS DAY!!!
Love you Charlie. You're so freaking cool and I've admired your dedication and hard work for years!!! Thank you for taking the time out of your schedule to read my comment but more astonishingly, liking it. Made my night man!!!
I knew Charlie was good. I didn't know he was THIS damn good.
Thanks Charlie for staying true to the drum parts. Every roll in this song is signature and wouldn’t sound right any other way
That is a great comment. You cant top what is already perfect. Charlie new that and added just a great feel to the the playing!!!
really on point.
Fantastic cover.... Charlie definitely channeled his inner Neil Peart..... I'm sure he would approve of this cover
Song is about being an outsider yet Rush always made me feel like I was on the inside, rest in peace professor!
That's one of the most poignant descriptions of Rush I've ever seen. 100%
That is what Rush did for me. No one understood me but them. They made me part of the coolest family on earth, and taught me to not be a victim of anyone.
3 excellent musicians = 1 Geddy
Let's take a moment to recognize that it took 5 super talented musicians to *cover* a song performed by 3
Awesome cover btw
Replacing any one of them is a challenge. It took 3 to replace Geddy Lee.
Was my very first thought as well. They killed it, but it took 5 of them!
You do realize there's a difference between a live performance and a studio recording.
Do you suppose that Rush recorded it live with no overdubs? Probably not.
Someone needs to turn up the bass guitar. You can barely hear it.
This song always broke my heart because I've always been the kid that was casted out in high school. You guys perfectly reproduced the depressing yet entertaining tone of the song. RIP Neil.
I think we all were that kid to some degree. It’s what probably brought us all here
Yes I too was that kid a seven years old I was hit by a car the scar starts at my left eyebrow and goes up into the hairline so needless to say when the kids at school seen it I was called monster Frankenstein horrible and all kinds of other nice little kitty names although it bothered me sometimes I was a kid I happily and easily look back and say f*** them f*** them all made me stronger help build character. 😝😎
I call it depressing yet wistfully hopeful.
I’m 13 and for a lot of my life I have been bullied beyond belief. Not physically but mentally. And I know what your saying that’s lame. But it’s not. It would mess with me (and still does sometimes). And I would hate life. When I found rock and metal it was a whole new world for me. It helped me through everything. Then I started drumming and that got me through a lot as well. And I would like to thank the professor Neil Peart because his drumming really made me perfect my technical abilities. And also I would like to thank charlie and all of the big 4 bands. You guys (Charlie, Dave, Lars, and Nick) really made me develop my speed and work on that. And because of all of these drummers and true musicians I am a happy and well rounded musician!
we all were! as were Neil, Alex, and Ged, that's why the universe of Rush exists, you are not alone!
Ra always looking like he's having the time of his life, it's so nice to watch.
Isn’t he amazing 🤩 🥰 good to see, I totally agree 👍🏻
it's true....he reminds me the looks of Jack Black , ja ja ja
If he's this theatrical on a mellow tune can you imagine him on a Pantera cover ???
His inner child was definitely being nurtured there. It'll keep him young.
I have seen him perform live with Korn a few times he has a great time on stage and is a very talented bassist. He is only 39 too, all the guys in Korn are now in their 50s. I was thinking Ra was actually older than 39 for some reason.
Charlie, Ra, Alex, Mee Eun, Brandon, you guys are my FUCKING HEROES. This cover is absolute gold.
Great job ladies & gentlemen!! Signals was one of my favorite albums growing up. You all sounded excellent; funny how it takes 5 mortals to reproduce the sound and musicianship of 3 legendary immortals whose music will outlive all of us. Even got the vocals. Thanks for the trip down memory lane. Pretty apropos song for the times.
That Subdivisions Groove! F'n Amazing! It proves that Benante is one of the best drummers alive on the planet and Skolnik is a guitarist way ahead of his time. I have had the pleasure of meeting both Charlie B and Alex Skolnik at The Norva in Norfolk Virginia and they are both down to earth real people who appreciate music and their fans! This is by far the best thing musically I've heard so far in 2021! Thanks for recording this!
This is a total hall of fame effort.
I was hoping that you'd go into The Analog Kid after this.
Nailed. It. Like others here, I was one of the outcasts, and a teacher's son at that. Double trouble. The bullying still lives with me at 54. RIP, NP, sadly missed.
the anthem for anyone who's ever felt like an outsider.
absolute perfection, gentlemen (and lady!) 💜
*edit: an e.l.p. cover would be legit
FU©KING EPIC.
Charlie, Neil is looking opon you grining in approval.
YOU ALL DID AN ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL JOB.
I SO ENJOYED THIS..... THANK YOU
I love the way everyone tried to stay true to the way Neil, Alex and Lee would have had to play it in 1982.....no cheating with technology!....Allegaeon also does a monster take on this song!
Ra always looks like he's having the time of his life.
Do what you love and you'll never work a day in your life, eh, Ra? 😎😎
I saw him live twice with KoRn he killed it I even saw him do a bass solo live!
Can't thank all of you enough for doing this over the last year! It's always such a welcome respite from the times! Yo Chuck D. Where aaarrree youuuu???
Have you (i.e., Charlie, Ra, Alex) considered writing/recording originals as a side-project band to your regular day jobs? Don't get me wrong, loving these collaborative covers - but the three of you are all so freaking talented that I would love to see what you would do working together on original material.
This is my most favorite song of RUSH. Thank you Charlie and guys (and beautiful lady)!!
I'm having a lot of fun in Japan. I'm always supporting you !!
And I'm sorry for my poor English.
This is another incredible cover. Holy crap, I can’t find words to describe the joy I feel in this moment. Unbelievable.
What A LEGIT tribute and cover! Damn...just DANM!
This is good.
The red hydrant , the “Subdivisions” voice from the record , the driving footage and the filter it’s shot in ... on top of just KILLER performances. I can’t help but just smile all the way through these Rush covers
This is an amazing rendition of a song I have heard hundreds of times, yet not quite like this one. Charlie, that was nothing short of incredible. Props and salute.
This is the song that not only got me hooked on Rush, but generally hooked on music. It's one of the few "I remember where and when" moments. It came on the radio in 1982 as I was lying on my bed and it was totally transforming. Great rendition.
Bingo.
Me too. Been a rush fan ever since.
For Rush it was late high school for me in the early '00s. I had heard them already but didn't really care for much. Then I heard this track. I was then an Instant fan and have been ever since.
It happened to me in 82 when my friend hands me his Sony Walkman and says listen to this my freshman year in high school. It was a song that changed the course of my life and thinking...
Charlie you're amazing dude, you can tell in your performance that this is nothing short of an outpouring of love for Neil and Rush! I'm a HUGE Anthrax fan, but this was stunning bro!
S U P E R B ! ! ! Especially enjoyed the Bass player's enthusiasm!
Yet another triumph for Charlie’s creativity. I almost don’t want the pandemic to end if we keep getting these awesome projects.
Just kidding. But these tunes rule!
He thinks hes selling anthrax albums while doing these
@@timeswehadwewonthaveagain6980 I'm pretty sure that isn't his intention---Anthrax doesn't sound anything like Rush. Plus, he's the only guy FROM Anthrax in this clip.
That snare sounds fucking great. Love this.
Amazing! Who says metal drummers can't play Rush! Charlie has always been someone I aspire to as a drummer. I would so love to meet and talk shop with him!
Subdivisions is the greatest song ever written by anyone in history. This version just kills. Charlie fucking owning it. Hopefully you guys get to some Grace Under Pressure and Power Windows songs soon.
Bravo!
This channel and these amazing covers have been the jewel of the last year. Everyone and every track has been on point. Thanks Charlie for continually bringing all these talented people together and delivering every time!
*My favorite Rush song, and y'all **_nailed_** it! Monstrous kudos!*
Awesome RIP Mr Peart
Charlie, Alex and Ra are the ONLY quarantine supergroup you need to listen to wherever you might be. Incredible work, gents!!
💯 just telling my wife basically how awesome this particular group is! Awesome!🤘
2 Minutes To Late Night has been rocking it as well. I mean come on, Anthem with Les Claypool and Danny Carey as the rhythm section.
Ditto-they are superb!!
They're great, but The Band Geeks are no slouches, either! They did an amazing cover of Roundabout by Yes while in quarantine. Richie Castellano perfectly replicated the late, great Chris Squire's bass line and sound. He even played a Ricky 4001!
Neil is the greatest percussionist who ever lived🇨🇦❤️
A year of being stuck apart from each other yet thanks to you Charlie, and a group of your friends, good music came out of it. Thanks for helping so many of us get through 2020, a pandemic and the loss of such an icon in Neil!
Incredible!
Cheers from Montreal Canada 🤘🏽🍻
R.I.P Neil Peart, he would be proud of this one guys 👏🏽
Out of all of Rush's songs I think this one resonates we the most (maybe tied with Mystic Rhythms off of Power Windows), definitely my favorite. This song sums up my entire existence in the social sphere growing up... hell who am I kidding, even in the present.
WOW BEST DRUMMER FOR THIS TRIBUTE ...CHARLIE IS KICKASS VERY UNDERRATED ON THE SKINS ..JUST LISTEN TO FIST FULL OF METAL AND THATS WHY LADIES AND GENTLEMEN...COME ON GUYS DO 2112 AND THEN YYZ,,,,,STAY SAFE AND THANKS FOR THE POST
Why do people always say that someone who is very famous specifically for their skill is "underrated"?!?
@@MrSatyre1 let's be honest metal or HARD metal dont get the same recognition as hip hop or country..its like rocky george from SUICIDAL TENDENCIES amazing player but when you talk to people oh him ya he plays good ..come on man ...its my OPINION...stay safe
Man, I split Rush when this record came out. Many years later I revisited it, and fell in love with this record. Great remake. Notice it takes 5 to reproduce 3. That’s important to note the giants Rush were.
So tight. Great cover - I remember hearing this song at 14 when it came out and being floored, it described exactly what I was going through at the time...
This is, by far, my fave Rush song. It is was a flashback to see the clips of Tempest from the original video. Thank you for doing a wonderful job on this song. You did The Professor proud with this.
Incredible job! Charlie you're such an underrated drummer.
The absolute best cover of a song I hold dear. You guys really did it justice.
You put a huge smile on my face once again....this is a year where guys like you Charlie have stepped up to cheer us up - thank you
Tribute to the Holy Rush. RIP always Neil Peart
I tuned in for Charlie and Alex, but Alex didn't get to shine much and Charlie actually made Peart look easy.
Awesome! Such a tune 👌🏻
Fucking Awesome!! Like a religious experience!!!
That overlay of Tempest during the guitar solo took me straight back to the early 80s, genius touch. And what a cover.
Damn, I've never smiled when my vacation is over, but this time - it is different! God damn, all you did great job!
Neil would be proud. 👌🏻
R.I.P Neil, for sure one of the greatest musicians of all time. 👍
Holy fuckola... Of all your Rush covers this might be the best yet. Charlie is THE STAR here, absolutely killing Peart's part. I wish the solo was longer to hear more of Alex getting into it, but he nailed it (Alex Lifenik? Skolson?). Big shout out to Brandon, Mee Eun and Ra for performing their parts flawlessly. Ra has DA BASS FACE going! Love it!
MORE MORE MORE!!!!
Gosebumps.... Wow Charlie and Band!!! Great cover!!!!. The Professor in heaven says: ✌
I feel like this time has come full circle with a Rush cover from a year ago. Seriously, if we can't have the real thing (and we unfortunately cannot), Charlie, Alex, & Ra are one helluva worthy substitute. Thank you for this. (I also loved that same video effect from the original video!)
Amazing job guys....gave me goosebumps as Rush does everytime...Spot on.
Simply fantastic.
Awesome song, just got into it recently. I mean, I knew it from classic rock radio, but never paid attention to the lyrics or seen the official video for it till yesterday and I'm like "oh I slept on this!" The only Rush album I ever owned was 2112 but been binging on them last couple of days.
That was very awesome!!! Gave me the chills!!!! Kicked Ass!!! 👍🤘👍🤘
WOW, this is... Wow, just incredible! This is pretty close to being my favorite RUSH tune and you guys just knocked it outta da park! Charlie, you've been among my favorite drummers since I saw you way back in the early 80's. And Alex too among my favorite guitarists. Thanks so much for this! Freaking amazing!
Damn, I just had this thought that I'm never gonna see the Professor play these songs again, and it really got to me. However, I feel so privileged that I got to see Rush six times since they reunited in 2002. A lot of their fans never had the chance or means to see them even once, so I can't complain.
Brandon Yeagley did a Rush medley with a 3 piece band when he was 19 years old.
Alex solo playing Tempest FTW!!!
Im so proud americans that plays canadian music👏👏👏👏🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻🥁🥁🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Brilliant, well done guys!! LOVING the Rush covers. You do them justice, and I'm sure somewhere Neil has a big smile on his face. :) Please do more, when you have the time!
That couldn’t have been better!!!!! Favorite Rush tune and one of my favorite songs to play on the drums back then
Killer job yous!!!
Smiling. Can't stop. Charlie kicking so much A**, bass is crazy as well. Rush was something else man
Alex Alex please please do the Emerson lake and Palmer tune you guys have no f****** idea how much these Little gems have meant to us
Again thank you so much and play safe fellas. 😎
Incredible work, incredible tribute! 🤘
I cannot believe how good this is on all fronts. Outstanding work!!
This video showed up in my feed, and from the first note put a huge smile on my face. Amazing cover! One of my all time favorite Rush songs. Thanks for your awesome talent and making my day.
Bass player looks like he took the biggest bestest shit in his life and feels damn good about it
Almost has a Weird Al Yankovichs vibe to his voice. Lol
Could you spell Alex's name right please?
This is actually the first time I’ve heard rush! Sounds pretty good! I’ll make sure to check out more of their stuff.
Rush '2112'.
be prepared
Wellcome to the excellence
Prog rock
Moving Pictures is must.
Soooo Good that it actually makes me smile while listening 😃😃😃!!!
incredible cover. i have approved.
the Red hydrant such a awesome nod to Signals.
Ah.....Charlie..............Have you sat down with Alex and Geddy?
Prolly too busy standing up with Phil Rex and Zack
Good question...
when Charlie gets bored we all WIN!!!!!!!!!
Happy New Year! 🥳 🎊
Wish I could double thumbs this up!! Saw this when it came out & watched several times. Now in my feed again .. Yay!! This is one of my favourites!!
Thanks to all the players and everyone else involved..You all do Rush such an honour!! RIP Neil Peart.
Many wishes for good health, happiness & safety to Everyone, all through 2022!!

Best Rush cover EVER! Every one of you totally nailed it!
With a tear in my eye I love this cover of this song. you guys nailed it.thank you for this it made my day 😎💪🤘🔥💯.
Tempest. Not much more needs to be said. Thank you for making my Monday.
Nice one eh?
Found you
MeeEunKim is a bad ass.
Still can't get over Neil's passing but this cover sure helps! Thank you guys for all the awesome covers you have done! You have been very helpful during this stressing period. Looking forward to the album!
Incredible version! The drums are spectacular, Charlie. Lets Go Al !!!! Karn Evil 9 would be killer. Thanks men(and Mee Eun) !!
