Rush - Limelight (full cover by Brody Dolyniuk & Nina DiGregorio)

- Brody and Nina present their latest offering - a full cover of the popular Rush classic Limelight (originally released on the Moving Pictures album in 1981).
This idea began with Brody suggesting Nina add it as one of her popular "famous guitar solos covered on electric violin" series. Brody considers it a personal favorite of Alex's many great solos, and thought it would lend itself well to the violin.
Then as a birthday gift, Brody granted Nina's long-time request for a Rickenbacker bass guitar. It was a given that a Rush song would be in the near future. So, shortly after returning home after getting married in New York, the newlyweds began laying down tracks for the full song, with Nina on electric violin (a custom Mark Wood Viper 6-string model) and the Rick bass, while Brody played drums, guitar, synth and vocal.
Great care was taken to preserve the sound of the original recording....although the solo is played on violin vs guitar, and we obviously had to make do with electronic drums and plugin (virtual) amps and effects.
Brody and Nina took turns filming each other with an iPhone and the mix/edit was done by Brody in Logic and Final Cut Pro.
If you enjoyed our previous cover of Rush's 1982 song Losing It, as a tribute to the then nearly-departed Neil Peart, we think you'll also like this effort.
As always, a huge thank you to the holy trinity of Canadian rock, Geddy, Alex and Neil!
Wow, that's a Power Couple! Rock on!
yooooooooo I did NOT expect the violin solo adapt. Just fire.... FIRE I says!
Specially because it's NOT a violin. In fact I wouldn't know to say what is that.
Wow!, straight up wow! 🤘
I did not expect Nina’s solo. Incredible. You guys do it right!
This had all the components necessary for me to loathe the effort: two people playing multiple instruments/tracks and mixing, electric violin, wearing Rush shirts throughout the desecration, etc. In fact, the only reason I clicked was because I was feeling snarky this morning and thought I would entertain myself and others with some sarcastic criticism. And then. You freaking crushed it. Just lit it up. Now I have to go to 11AM mass and repent....
Yeah RUclips threw this up out of nowhere. I thought- what the heck, I'm prepared to be disappointed. Boy was I ever wrong. This was simply outstanding!
They absolutely 💯 nailed it!!What an awesome cover!
Same here. This was absolutely amazing!!!@@johnnicol8598
Amen. And amen again. They totally CRUSHED IT!!
☝️☝️☝️This!
The violin - reaLLYLLY ? BRILLIANT. That killed it for me. Thank you for such a tribute.
Check out their cover of losing it. Nina kills it on violin, just perfect.
Not a violin, but yeah, still great!
I’m entering my 40th year in show business and Brody in my opinion is the most skilled and versatile entertainer I’ve ever seen.
02:36 That violin solo was so f'n good. It deserves some kind of award !!!!
holy smokes!! I dang near fell out of my chair!!!...absolutely incredible
Nina is absolutely incredible. I haven't seen a Band yet that she can't do a cover song for.
Nina is a sight to behold. Her look at 3:18 and 3:28 melted me away🤯🤯🤯
That's not a violin. I don't know what is that. But it's insanely cool.
Wait what...she played the solo with a violin guitar? That was amazing!
That is without question the best cover of Limelight I ever heard, what an amazing duo, additionally how impressing is it to hear Alex's solo done to sonic perfection with an electric violin, FANTASTIC.
I agree with you! The vocals and instruments are spot on!
Not a violin, but cool!
After "Losing it" ...this one!
Totally Amazing!
You're both great versatile players! Brody ..you're also a good singer.
A also this time the eletric violin solo is awesome!
My compliments to you both once again!
brody is the most universal singer ive seen. from elton john to robert plant and even the canadian accented rush., his delivery is both perfect and kinda creepy!!!
That's not a Canadian accent, that's a Geddy accent. 😉
Amazing! Violin solo?!? Mind blown! You nailed it!
Watch their "Losing It" cover as well. She nailed the violin part in that song.
@@TheAgentAssassin Oh I have! That's how I found her in the first place!
Violin? No... Cool? Definitely!
Excellent and faithful reproduction
On a total different level. Absolutely amazing. Great job
Holy crap... the violin solo pushed it over the top. Is that a guitar/ violin? Mind blown.
WTF! That was fucking genius. What a tribute. I can tell they are your favourites. Just like me and so many millions who understand why Rush is so important in their lives. Looking forward to more! Thanks RIP Neil.
I needed that. Awesome. Thanks!
As a Rush fan for 40 years, you nailed it!👍😁
Ive been listening to Rush since their beginning and went to many of their concerts. Know every lyrics, notes and variations of their music even went to Neil’s house in Morin-Heights. This is the most masterful tribute I’ve heard of this unforgettable Canadian trio. Magic.
You didn't put a foot wrong, Nina & Brody. I've seen RUSH covers before, but yours is on another level - even your voice Brody, is not far off Geddy's - that's tight pitch. Nice improvisation with the six string & bow too, Nina - Hugh Syme would be proud. Phenomenal, both !!
Not only did you blow the doors off this cover you allowed the public to like I have seen in others feedback to open many people to the fact that that of true musical talent and the diversity of musicianship. Very rare in this day and age. . And as a follower and a former 80s bassist You both reinforced the essence of true musicianship , Thanks as it about quality
Wow!!
Blown away at the studio musicianship of these two great talents.
Neil and the boys would be so proud.
Just a great rendition of a monumental Rush original
👍👍😜
It does so much justice to the originals, yet lands it closer to the mainstream. Vocally Brody has the right tone to create a wider audience for Rush' music. Nina ads the right tweeks with those violin solos (yes that Wood Viper speaks volumes). "Losing It" certainly is one of the most significant songs so many discarded. Brody and Nina make it gel so well, it is absolutely magnificent. Luv it!
Musically the best cover to date. Vocals are so fire also!
Real music 🎸🚀🍻 real talent Rush
Fantastic and the violin substitution sounds amazing
People always say "I can't believe RUSH is only 3 people."
Well here are two.😁
AMAZING JOB! The violin solo was a nice treat as well.
Not even sure Geddy and Alex could pull this off without a violinist and a drummer.
Yes... 😄 ... you'll notice them doing 7 or 8 different "parts." Crazy...

This was great. Nina nailed that solo.
Wow! This is incredible. Honestly the BEST cover of Limelight I've ever heard. Vocals SO DAMN SPOT ON!
And the fact that Nina is rocking the Rickenbacker bass makes me happy 😃
The joys of Rush - well done beautiful humans.
Damn, that was incredible!
Best cover I have ever heard of Limelight!!! Great job to you both!!
Completely blown away. Especially with the solo.
not everyone can keep up w Neil and Alex. And that violin!!!! WELL DONE.
Nailed it! Awesome job!
Superb!
Awesome!
Perfect cover, excellent video and a brilliant voice.
Damn! If I closed my eyes and had someone play this for me, I’d swear it was actually Rush.
you mean you can’t hear the awful electronic drums? 😂😂😂😂
Très belle interprétation !
Tout est parfait !
❤
Absolutely spot on. Brody is, as I've written before, a vocal chameleon like no other. Violin solo was also surprisingly enjoyable.
One of my favorite songs ever, by one of my favorite bands ever. And yes, they absolutely NAILED IT. I’ve seen Rush live 14 times and I appreciate any artist that attempts to cover them. There are a million Rush covers out there and this is one of the finest. For real. The solo, omg. What can I say. Never seen an electric violin solo before. Alex Lifeson would be proud. Moved to tears by the solo and by seeing the poster on the wall. WE MISS YOU SO MUCH NEIL!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I also saw them 14 times! And I agree, love this cover. 🙌
Brody rockin the drums, guitar, & vocals. Nina rockin the bass and flawlessly performing the haunting & emotional solo ON VIOLIN!! It doesn’t get much better than this…
OK,... now I'm crying.
I cried as well. For real.
Amazing. I’m inspired. From Ontario Canada..
Amazing. Bring back great music 🎶🎶
Best Rush cover of limelight I've ever heard

WOW !!!! This GREAT . . . What a piece of JAMZ . . . .

Righteous...right in the pocket of the original track. Bravo!!
All the tones of the bass the violin guitars spot on. Huge kudos
I have been listening to RUSH since 1976...and that performance was absolutely fantastic. Well done for keeping it alive
HOW do these geniuses only have 13K subs?????????? Todays generation doesn't put a premium on talent - these guys are insanely talented, that was note for note EACH INSTRUMENT. !!!!!! HELLO!!!!!!!?!?!?!!!
Awesome! Just awesome. Best Rush cover of this song I’ve EVER heard. 👏👏👏👏👏
God gives us voice to make a joyful noise...... it's AWESOME !
