It is wonderful, just was listening to it and wanted to see him playing it live. Geddy Lee is rocking out too (well they all are!) but it is harder to single out the bass. Miss them! RIP Neal.
Neil Ellwood Peart (September 12, 1952 - January 7, 2020)...No more pain, brother...only freedom 🕊.... You will not be forgotten. Thanks for the lyrics and the music.
I met Alex the other day outside a Toronto Beer Store. he was loading up his truck with a few cases going to the cottage i assume. i said hey and he stopped without looking. then i said hey again and he turned towards me. when realized it was him i placed my hand over my heart with sincerity and told him how much his music meant to me growing up in the late 70 and early 80's, i didn't say the years to him, and said thanks for all the great music he created. he smiled that Alex smile and said "thanks :)". i nodded to his wife bowing my head a tad and walked away. i thought about asking for a picture together but decided that the chance to meet him in the way that i did was a memory a picture can never capture. i also didn't want to intrude more than i already did. i think he appreciated me not going full fantard with him.
sampson ireman that’s sounds similar encounter I had with Alex about 5 years ago. I saw him at Staples store on Yonge street. I recognized him and discreetly approached him said hello and told him what huge fan I was. He cordially said thanks then I left him alone. Wasn’t about to break out the IPhone and ask him to take selfie LOL
So great! This is the experience we all wish would happen to us. But what could any of us say that they haven’t heard a gazillion times. Thank you and a nod is just great enough. Cheers 🍻 Neil RIP brother.
@@nhrocker2765 Thanks, it still gives me chills. At that time Neil was most likely suffering. Now that i think about it there was a little sadness in his smile.
One of my favorite Rush songs ! They put all their efforts into each instrument. Geddy's live performance on Bass, Keyboards and Vocals are to be regarded as a musician savant. The lyrics bring one back to adolescence and an age of innocence.
Signals is definitely one of their funnest albums to listen from beginning to end. I actually enjoyed it more than Moving Pictures. But definitely no song can top that Gem from Moving Pictures (YYZ)
It is one of my favorites as well. I like it because they didn't try to go back out at do Moving Pictures again. It takes a slight different direction and shows (once again) that they weren't afraid to try something they hadn't done before.
First time I saw Rush was on the Signals Tour. Everybody wanted a reprise of Exit Stage Left but they got a whole lot more! I love the '80's Rush albums. Signals was a big step, and for a lot of folk a slow burner, but now I consider it one of their best studio albums. They made great albums but in my mind you had to see them live to get the full measure of one of the all-time greatest rock bands.
At the beginning, when Alex pretends to sing is why I love this band so much, besides the sheer weight of volume of great material. Such humour. Most other bands or singers would probably freak out that they were being upstaged. Alex is a neighbour and his sense of humour is just like that. Great guy!
In one of his La Villa Stranglato "rants" Alex is "singing" La-la-la-la off key. Then says "I love singing - it's so easy!" (I took it as a funny dig at Geddy.)
One of my favorites. Quietly ironic that this was the first of the albums where Alex started to feel pushed out by the keyboards, and yet this song was certainly was one of his greatest solos.
This was always my favorite Rush song. Even more so now that I noticed Neil is smiling when the bands starts playing. It’s amazing how easy they make this look. Especially Neil, this is an incredibly complicated song.
These guys are brilliant! But I have to point out how incredible Geddy Lee is. He’s singing, playing bass, and triggering pedals all at the same time. Wow! I have mad respect for him and all that he does. There’s no slouch in this band. They’re all incredible. Rest peacefully, Neil. Thank you, my brother. 🙏🏾👏🏾❤️
One of my favorite Rush tunes! "A fawn-eyed girl with sun brown legs dances at the edge his dream" always gives me goosebumps! ❤❤❤❤ And that's how it's done, no fkn autotune, no lip syncing, playing in real time, slip ups and all!!
The most amazing recognition i have every heard is that someone asked Eddie Van Halen how he felt about being the best guitarist, he said: " I do not know, you should ask Alex Lifeson. Those "underrated" comments do not fly, by night, or any day
Sweet Jesus these guys are phenomenal. This and 'Digital Man', my faves off this classic album. Alex is criminally underrated as a guitarist. The boy pulls down his baseball cap and covers up his eye-EEYYYESSS!
Literally stole the words out of my mouth, “criminally underrated”! He’s by far one of the best guitarists out there but I feel he doesn’t get the recognition he deserves as a guitarist!
WOW!!! Just wow! They were all smiling most of the time. I've heard this song many times, but noticed for the first time that Geddy operates the keyboard by the footpedals while he's playing the bass. They're so damn gifted! Brought Prog Rock to a whole new level.
I like to think this album represents a fun time for them. Summer at LeStudio working, picnics, volleyball. Bet they had a blast and they think of it every time they do one of these Signals songs. I just like to think that.
I love that Alex looked pumped and possibly yelled "whoo!" after he pretty much nailed the solo he composed 30 years earlier. And it's not like it's an easy one lol
I saw this concert as a teenager with my dad. I had never heard this song prior and it absolutely floored me how beautiful it was. After this show i listened to every song rush ever made. Thank you Rush.
Listen to the crowd after Alex's solo. Limelight, Kid Gloves (criminally underrated song), The Analog Kid, La Villa Strangiato, Mission.....one of many great solos from Alex.
You’re so right. I’ve played a lot of Rush for many years on guitar and in bands. While Limelight is my favorite solo to play, this song and Kid Gloves are the most fun. It took me about a month, pre-internet, cassette tape method to learn Kid Gloves. It’s such an amazing tune.🙂
68, and loving Rush all this time. I was in bands, and I remember sitting around in more than a few conversions - talking about Who's Who on guitar. All the usual names came up. Then, someone would say "Alex", and everyone would go..."Ah, yes...Lifeson."
Saw them in '82 at Pgh Civic Arena. Was feverish with the flu. Sucked it up and went. SOOOOO glad i did! This tune defines Rush for me. It's def prog with keys and time signature changes. And yet it his me life a runaway semi. ONLY these 3 dudes could pull that off. Neil, I am just one of the untold thousands of drummers you have inspired. It's been real, dude. Gracias!
Am I the only one who gets misty eyed watching these Rush videos? Out of the many many bands I have seen live over the years, I miss these guys the most.
In my humble opinion, this is the most melodic and memorable Rush song in history. Three of the finest musicians that rock has ever or will ever see. Incredible.
That guitar solo and reaction from the audience. They recognize art.👍 I regret not seeing Rush live whenever they came to Phoenix. Good thing there’s RUclips videos.👏
Alex's mock lead singing at the start just kills me every time I watch this. Such a goof ! Then, things get very serious for that surface of the sun blistering solo. Great dynamic changes!
Thank you rush for writing the soundtrack to all our lives. Having your music in my life for 40 plus years has been a blessing. Thank you for all the shows where for 3 hrs a night you brought together a family of the most loyal fans in the entire solar system.
May be my favorite Rush song. Alex's solo is amazing. The whole song is. But now watcing Geddy during Alex's solo and playing pedals while riffing on the bass....
Rush fan since high school (78-81) fell in love with “All the Worlds a Stage” and Hemispheres and been rocking with them since. Creativity is the name of the game and Rush had an abundance of talent and passion to go with it.
The '82 Signals Tour remains something special that will always remain near and dear to my heart. Thanks for sharing this awesome song ! I'll raise a glass to the 2 brothers that I shared the original show with back in the day ! God rest their souls they aren't with me any more !
agree Signals at Nassau Long Island was amazing... I am just sad I didn't make the last tour, seen them dozens of times and thought I would get another chance. That will haunt me now... that 2015 tour was great...
I’ll never forget the 15 year old me putting the “Signals” vinyl on my parents stereo: headphones on full volume and hearing this riff for the first time after already being blown away by Subdivisions. Life moves fast. Glad I saw every tour starting with this album.
If I could go back 40 years and buy my first RUSH album and live it over again....I would... But "MAN", what a library we have!!! Enjoy retirement Professor and thanks to all. Alex, Geddy, Neil.👍💖💪
Wow! Geddy playing the bass, while playing synthesizer with his feet, and singing. Alex is unbelievable on guitar. And can you say about Neil's drumming
NEIL PEART AT 4:45 BEATING THE FUC* OUT OF THOSE DRUMS !!!! BAM BAM BAM BAM !!!! I LOVE IT NEAL !!!!! WHAT AN EXPRESSION ON YOUR FACE !!!! BADASS !!!!!
I remember the first show EVER I must've been five or six and it was in our hometown Woodstock at Southside park was Kim Mitchell Max Webster and Glass Tiger. Thank you mom n dad fr introducing me to good music at such a precious agee 😘❤️ I always wanted to see rush but never got the chance
I've not found a specific source, but I know Alex was not entirely happy being sidelined by the synths which occupied the frequencies he operated in. I noticed that on Signals he played with a ferocity unlike previous albums, and I'm guessing it was him fighting to be heard. This solo always felt like it's full of frustration to me, and I love it. It's like he was forced to "out Alex" himself.
Signals was the soundtrack of my 8th grade middle school year. Everyone had a copy of this album (on tape) and soon Subdivisions would be in heavy rotation on MTV. Thanks Alex, Geddy and Neil (RIP) for the memories!
Seen them 5 times and never seen them play this live even though it's my second favorite song from signals after Subdivisions. It's one of my favorite solos from Alex and they kill it here. Thanks for posting this!
Utterly awesome piece of playing. Thirty years since it first grabbed me by the neck, I still can't get over how fast and accurately he plays that, it's both bonkers and beautiful :)
I have seen things...glittering guitar notes tearing apart the air...pounding bass shattering the fabric of worlds...all is lost; like tears in the rain.
My very first concert was the Signals tour. I saw them at the LA Forum back in the early 80's.. Rush was my buddies favorite band.. I was still in the mist of getting to know their music.. til this day that concert goes down as my favorite by far.. Long lives RUSH!
Signals....where to start...how about getting the record and cassette as a kid...the day it dropped... and then sending it for the next year or so in your walkman...on your way to school in the deep snow of upstate....memories! It all culminated 40 + years later at the forum...the last show...thank you to the band for being the soundtrack of my life. In the Professors honor, I will rip my red Barchetta all weekend for him, the band...and all of my fellow Rush fans...thank you.
We are an OCD bunch, us Rush fans lol- Been a drummer & Rush fan both coincidentely since 1981. Even the camera guy knows to film the fans; we know all the pushes, guitar solos, drum licks, etc & we air play them while listening like we are the ones playing :-) We love this band & all their hard work.
This song makes the body like impacted with 10,000 volts of energy, takes the soul to infinity and the solo is just an extra bonus when you can say, this to much to bear, thanks Rush
A room full of adults turned to enthusiastic children at the first note
perfectly stated, over 60 shows I attended and it was not close to being enough
noynac, i am ever stilled & humbled from first note, from hearing on live radio way back when :)
Yes
I've listened to this song over a thousand times over 40 years and Alex's guitar solo still gives me goosebumps!
Same here
It's fucking awesome. I started playing guitar when I was 15, but I heard this song and solo when I was 12 or 13 and it totally blew me away.
@@dmitryowens Hell yeah!
It is wonderful, just was listening to it and wanted to see him playing it live. Geddy Lee is rocking out too (well they all are!) but it is harder to single out the bass. Miss them! RIP Neal.

Well said !! If you are a rocker you miss him !! 😪😪😪😪🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🍺🍺🍺
What an awesome human being he was, and is in fact.😢
Rest In Peace Professor Peart.
Love how Alex makes Neil smile.
And how Neil keeps looking at Alex in the beginning of the song.. great friends...sorely missed
A Lerxt is a funny guy
Alex faking like he's about to sing made them all laugh I'm sure. Nice to have seen Neil smile, just a bit.
I met Alex the other day outside a Toronto Beer Store. he was loading up his truck with a few cases going to the cottage i assume.

i thought about asking for a picture together but decided that the chance to meet him in the way that i did was a memory a picture can never capture.
i also didn't want to intrude more than i already did.
i think he appreciated me not going full fantard with him.

You literally just gave me chils. and thank you for not being one of those fans who think they are owed a picture.
@@144wychwood Very cool
@@nhrocker2765 Thanks, it still gives me chills. At that time Neil was most likely suffering. Now that i think about it there was a little sadness in his smile.
There is not a guitar player on the planet that looks remotely happy as Alex. He truly loves what he's doing.
True, but check out Tommy Emmanuel. Otherworldly talent, LOVES what he does!
I love many guitarists, but Alex is my favorite. Wait... let me think for a moment... YEP, he's tops.
Too bad the world will never again see these three monster musicians live together again. RIP Neil.
Edward Van Halen...
@@RSTI191...and when asked what it's like being the best guitarist in the world, EVH replied, "I don't know. Ask Alex Lifeson."
Alex Lifeson , a true guitar god period.

He’s seriously criminally underrated as a guitarist!

From which DVD?
And thanks so much for posting ♥
One of Alex's finest solos. Perfection.
Signals...
now there’s some seriously underrated work...
Jason Lefler really?.. you consider Signals underrated?.. it’s more like the most seriously OVERRATED work
ColdfacekillerJr CFK Luckily, you still have the right to be wrong.
@@DrKFC69 when you listen carefully, yes, it is underrated.
Well, it does have Subdivisions on it, so there is that...
I consider rush to be underrated in general
Long live Neil! I'm crushed! 💔
Signals may not be their best album, but it's my favorite. Every song is a gem and it's the perfect mixture of guitars & keyboards.
Signals is definitely one of their funnest albums to listen from beginning to end.
I actually enjoyed it more than Moving Pictures. But definitely no song can top that Gem from Moving Pictures (YYZ)
It is one of my favorites as well. I like it because they didn't try to go back out at do Moving Pictures again. It takes a slight different direction and shows (once again) that they weren't afraid to try something they hadn't done before.
I first saw Rush on the Signals tour in Edinburgh, Scotland. I can even remember the date it was the 24th May 1983.

Just like the one in ‘the weapon’. My personal fav’
This was always my favorite Rush song. Even more so now that I noticed Neil is smiling when the bands starts playing. It’s amazing how easy they make this look. Especially Neil, this is an incredibly complicated song.
Was thinking the exact same thing, they make it look easy.
Peart is smiling because at the beginning of a song, Alex is lip syncing the song along with Geddy.
These guys are brilliant! But I have to point out how incredible Geddy Lee is. He’s singing, playing bass, and triggering pedals all at the same time. Wow! I have mad respect for him and all that he does. There’s no slouch in this band. They’re all incredible. Rest peacefully, Neil. Thank you, my brother. 🙏🏾👏🏾❤️
The cheers at the end of the solo say it all.

I have always loved that line too. I was once that girl but many decades have since passed.
“…and when I leave I don’t know what I’m leaving behind”
RIP NP
I have just recently discovered this song after 26 years of being a Rush fan. For some reason, this line stands out to me. Pure magic...
I can't believe that! I still know a girl just like her (where i live). Married but always my sunbrowned girl 😊@delmiller7572

Get Geddy's new book!! You will LOVE IT!
I love that Alex looked pumped and possibly yelled "whoo!" after he pretty much nailed the solo he composed 30 years earlier. And it's not like it's an easy one lol
The best live band that I have ever seen, without doubt. I`m 68 years young, and I have seen a lot of bands in my time...but these guys...incredible.
Truly in a League of their own, Nobody can touch these guys, not even Close. The Modern Mozarts of this age! LONG LIVE RUSH!!
x infinity!!!! BEST EVER
The Legends!
What an insanely talented fucking band!!
I saw this concert as a teenager with my dad. I had never heard this song prior and it absolutely floored me how beautiful it was. After this show i listened to every song rush ever made. Thank you Rush.
Alex Lifeson is one of the last guitarist of our era where the guitar solo was addressed with reverence and had to be performed as originally written.
Listen to the crowd after Alex's solo. Limelight, Kid Gloves (criminally underrated song), The Analog Kid, La Villa Strangiato, Mission.....one of many great solos from Alex.
You’re so right. I’ve played a lot of Rush for many years on guitar and in bands. While Limelight is my favorite solo to play, this song and Kid Gloves are the most fun. It took me about a month, pre-internet, cassette tape method to learn Kid Gloves. It’s such an amazing tune.🙂

Alex’s solo gives me goosebumps still to this day
Alex tearing it up on this solo👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Saw them in '82 at Pgh Civic Arena. Was feverish with the flu. Sucked it up and went. SOOOOO glad i did! This tune defines Rush for me. It's def prog with keys and time signature changes. And yet it his me life a runaway semi. ONLY these 3 dudes could pull that off. Neil, I am just one of the untold thousands of drummers you have inspired. It's been real, dude. Gracias!

In my humble opinion, this is the most melodic and memorable Rush song in history. Three of the finest musicians that rock has ever or will ever see. Incredible.
The keyboard sound in the chorus is so glorious and beautiful it could bring me back from the dead..!
I love Alex, his personality is so calm and his sense of humor is great!!! I miss these guys tremendously.
That guitar solo and reaction from the audience. They recognize art.👍 I regret not seeing Rush live whenever they came to Phoenix. Good thing there’s RUclips videos.👏
That solo from Alex gets me hyped every single time
I can see Neil smiling at playing drums..
He is a geniouse..
Miss Neil so much...
Love Rush...♥️♥️♥️🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟
Alex is one of the few guitarists I know that regularly played a Les Paul with a Floyd.
Smokin guitar solo Alex !!!😲😲😲😲😲
I listen and I'm still in disbelief... Neil Peart RIP Professor! My youth died yesterday... on we go!
3:50...Can he pull it off""
Alex: " hold my beer.."
Alex's mock lead singing at the start just kills me every time I watch this. Such a goof ! Then, things get very serious for that surface of the sun blistering solo. Great dynamic changes!
This song is already tough to play on bass, so the fact that he’s able to do it perfectly while also singing is impressive as hell
My band once had a bassist/singer also. He was amazing!

I luv that huge cheer after Alex's solo.
Signals....where to start...how about getting the record and cassette as a kid...the day it dropped... and then sending it for the next year or so in your walkman...on your way to school in the deep snow of upstate....memories! It all culminated 40 + years later at the forum...the last show...thank you to the band for being the soundtrack of my life. In the Professors honor, I will rip my red Barchetta all weekend for him, the band...and all of my fellow Rush fans...thank you.
I miss seeing these guys in concert so much!! They are soooo awesome!!!
We are an OCD bunch, us Rush fans lol- Been a drummer & Rush fan both coincidentely since 1981. Even the camera guy knows to film the fans; we know all the pushes, guitar solos, drum licks, etc & we air play them while listening like we are the ones playing :-)
We love this band & all their hard work.
Great number. RIP NEIL. greetings Dirk Belgium.
They practiced the hell outta this one! Geddy's voice was really having a good night, and Alex seems transformed back to the Caress of Steel rawness
One of Rush's most amazing songs. RIP Neil.
I think Alex joked around to loosen Neil up. Love to see a smile on his face. Miss u professor 🙏❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
One of my favorite RUSH songs. They look so dang happy jamming to this one haha
One of their greatest songs ever
Damn, I love this song. All out blistering pace. RIP NP.
This song spoke to me the 1st time I heard it, and it was so awesome to hear it live on the counterparts tour!
😢
This song makes the body like impacted with 10,000 volts of energy, takes the soul to infinity and the solo is just an extra bonus when you can say, this to much to bear, thanks Rush
