Alex's solo at the end with Geddy just raw and intense on the bass underneath is one of my favorite Rush moments ever.
Like in so many other Rush songs the guitar solo is also a ridiculously awesome bass solo. The music is almost too rich for a 3 man band.
Definitely
Great guitar solo. Underrated as always with Lifeson
Totally Agree!!
Completely Fantastic ending there
So Nick has such enthusiasm and Lexi is so immersed that it reminds me of how I felt when I first heard this for the first time
So glad you've added this (and thanks for the shout out). My favourite song - not just Rush song - of all time. An utter masterpiece.
This song always gets me. Thanks for giving it a listen! it just has that "Rush feel", whatever that technically means. The part just before Alex's solo when Geddy sings, "They seem oblivious..."-goosebumps every time. And then you hear them chat with each other a bit, barely audible. The tune shows their adventurous spirit and it's just magic. Digging your Rush binge! If you ever want to delve into a long tune (around 20'), side one of "Hemispheres" is a trip. A darker album that is also Rush at their proggiest (you've heard the closer!)
If you’re gonna do a full album stream, you gotta do Hemispheres. It will cement your appreciation for Rush. These reactions are great and after seeing you react to La Villa Strangiato, you must hear what precedes it. It’s worth it.
Thanks for your suggestion and support! It will be SO hard to choose which album to do a full stream with! - Lex
Can't wait for you to react to Xanadu by Rush and then react to Dream Theater's cover of this epic song. Rush asked Dream Theater to cover Xanadu for the 40th anniversary release of Farewell To Kings. It's fantastic!!
WELLLLLL THAT WOULD BE THE WAY TO DO IT YOU GUYS, JUST GO THROUGH THEIR LIBRARY BUT IT'S JUST A QUESTION OF HOW YOU WANNA DO IT IS ALL! :) LIKE THEIR VERY 1ST WITH NEIL, ( FLY BY NIGHT ) THE TITLE TRACK BUT ALSO NICK AND YOURSELF LEX WOULD MOST LIKELY LUVVVVVV : BY TOR AND THE SNOWDOG SO ANYWAY GOOD CALL :) KEEP ENJOYINGGG IT, MUCH LOVE!
I remember going out to get the album as soon as it came out in '81. This is the song that I wore out on my turntable. Blew my mind when I first heard it. The whole album is a revelation.
This was meant as a description of Neil's time while living in New York and London in the early 70's. I've always considered this as Rush's musical version of A Tale of Two Cities (without the tragedy). Just a side note but the final guitar solo was done (as was the entire album) at LeStudio in Quebec, Canada and while recording Alex tried 5 times to nail that lead lick, couldn't get it so he set his guitar down, went outside the studio for a beer and cigarette, came back in and nailed it in one shot!
As for the marathon Rush listen...HELL YEAH! Love to hear 2112 in one session! maybe after you could do Moving Pictures, Permanent Waves, etc. Just let us know and we'll be there with headphones at the ready! Peace and Thanks Greatly!
Gotta keep on risin! I often play this when I drive into New York.
Farewell To Kings lead solo is one of his best, great tune as well
Wow thanks so much for all this awesome trivia! Always welcome! :)
Also we appreciate your support and can’t wait to do the marathon projects!! Also: someone gave away the reason for your name and now I can’t unsee it! - Lex
@@NicknLex oh, and what was that reason? Was it the Jim Morrison angle of it?
@@mr.mojorisin1616 Yes!!
Finally someone is giving The Camera Eye some recognition it deserves instead of all these requests for Tom Sawyer or Red Barchetta. Perhaps some day the both of you will listen to other rarely requested songs from this group called "Vital Signs" or "Witch Hunt".
Oh yeah! Witch Hunt is one of my favourite tracks on this album with doubled drum tracks. And amazing lyrics as usual.
Btw...speaking of doubled drums...well doubled everything - do a search here on youtube for "Max Webster And Rush - Battlescar" . Max Webster was a supporting act to Rush for a while...they made that little gem together 😄
Edit: Ahh...I just saw NicknLex has already reacted to it...well done
i would listen to Limelite, Camera Eye and Witch hunt consecutively LOUDLY!!!!!
Or Losing It
I saw a "The Camera Eye" and i push that like button... One of my favorite song ever 👍
Let me go a step further. That bassline during Alex's solo might be my favourite moment in music ever. 👍🔥🔥
The Rush “Rabbit hole” is deep. The journey is life changing and it’s a pleasure to be along for the ride. It took me forty years to get through their entire discography, but I had to wait for them to create it. You have the entire catalog at your fingertips and I can see you want to hear everything. I suggest you pace yourself and take time to thoroughly appreciate each track. I completely understand that you want to focus on the music and that will always be enjoyable. But with Rush understanding the Lyrics improves the overall experience exponentially. Maybe try reading the lyrics through before reacting. It will allow you to understand without being a distraction.
TBH just do this however you feel most comfortable, you are going to get a million suggestions on what and how you should react but at the end of the day we are all gonna still be watching, commenting and liking, because it’s Rush and that’s what we do. Thanks!
Wise words indeed! Rush on...
I’m still learning and discovering new things through the music of Rush , lyrics , musical nuances etc . And I’ve been a fan since 1980 . An incredible band who have been a massive influence in my life .
@John Davis I totally agree, they're layered like herbs and spices to the most fine dining experience, but musically as well as lyrically.
Yes John Yes!
Neil Peart is to me one of the Top Writers, Books,music,you name it I loved the book "Ghost Rider" What happened to Neil would have destroyed a lot of men,he is superhuman in my mind
They were so far ahead of their time, they were timeless... Don't be ashamed about getting emotional to Rush's music Nick, it just means you have a soul. it happens to me all the time!!
Rush is like a fantastic car ride through the mountains. They pull up in your driveway, you get in the car, and off you go. Their music takes you through highs and lows, twist and turns, and then brings you back home. You stand in your driveway, watching them drive away, wondering what the hell just happened?
I think that is a beautiful illustration
Speaking of car ride...... RED BARCHETTA
I absolutely loved how you said this. Especially because I have such an indescribable connection with mountains that this really brought tears to my eyes. Thank you and you’re absolutely right! Sending peace, Lex :)
I love how Dream Theater takes that influence to the next level with their brand of prog rock/metal.
Is there anything so spiritually satisfying as turning someone on to a band and seeing them just dive in headlong? Years ago, this guy I worked with asked me if RUSH was any good, because he has the chance to see them live. Of course I enthusiastically encouraged him to go. He came in the next day completely hoarse and eyes still bugging, just raving. It really felt good to help someone discover RUSH
BTW, the other two songs on this side of the album are Witch Hunt and Vital Signs, both of which are killers.
Another vote for Witch Hunt...And Vital Signs...and the rest of them...
Make that a 3rd
Indeed, in fact every single song on this masterpiece deserves its own reaction.
I'd say, one of the GREATESTS "Side 2/B"'s of all time :D.
*THIS* ⬆️⬆️⬆️
The Camera Eye: Absolute masterpiece. If you loved Alex and Geddy's final solo, just try Freewill or Analog Kid!
Geddy is a master at accentuating and the timing of his voice, always brings a smile to my face!
Very true
Neil is the Mozart of drums. He always orchestrated his Art
Rush - "Red Barchetta" is another great song that we'd love to see you react to, or review. Not to mention Tom Sawyer, Limelight, The Trees, Closer To The Heart,...
I'm new to your channel, one video and it was an INSTANT subscription. Love you two, thank you for sharing these experiences..
5 Stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐!
Neil's homage to one of his favorite novelists, John Dos Passos. Have always loved the cinematic quality of this piece.
Neil also lived in New York and London in the early 70’s.
I think this song is perhaps one of the best of Geddy's on vocals. His voice is so clear, expressive, and complementary to the music and lyrics. I LOVE the camera eye, and was the last of the marathon long songs that Rush ever did.
I love this track. So underrated. You get emotional? 😀. Welcome to Rush. All us Rush fans have been feeling like this for 40+ years.
Got to go back stage when they were playing this in LA - late 80’s. Crowd was playing along with it!!
Yep. I saw Rush on the Moving Pictures tour at Kalamazoo MI in 1981.
Some of Geddy's most melodic bass work while he sings the verses. Great reaction guys -- plus it's nice to see a female who enjoys Rush so much!
Thanks so much for your support! :) - Lex
I’m a little confused. With RUSH, the lyrics MUST be paid attention to. They are always important.
I agree, though not on a first listen. Maybe after the song is over.
Yes, sometimes the lyrics AND the music are a bit much to absorb on a first listen.
As Geddy has said - the lyrics can be a mouthful... so even he had trouble sometimes.
Neil was a scholar and a poet and
Love your sincere joy and smiles, guys! On, Nick's observations about Neil's intentional note choices - It's really, more than anything, what he strength was. Sure, he had chops, but above all he was a composer. Particularly when you're in a three-piece group, using the drums as a *melodic* instrument brings so much. No one wrote drum parts like him - what an amazing gift he was to us.
Another masterpiece from the greatest rock trio that ever walked the earth love and respect from the uk.
You might wanna checkout something from like Power Windows or Hold Your Fire another different side of Rush. Either way it doesn't matter I enjoy them all.
I second that motion. HYF is as beautiful as it gets. “Mission” in particular is well worth a reaction!
@@billforster1010 from HYF studio I would vote for Open Secrets. I love Mission but it's the live version that shines as opposed to the studio track.
People just request the same songs like it’s the only good sounds.
Huge Rush fan here, since childhood. Unfortunately for me Rush ended after Grace Under Pressure. Similar to how I was finished with Genesis post Abacab. The fire and magic were extinguished......
@@Ontariosound You have missed out on sooooooo much great music. I’m always confused with fans that gave up on Rush. The boys had the fortitude to move on in different directions and explore new things. I for one am glad they didn’t just make the same records over and over like some bands ie ACDC.
Every stage of Rush's career is special and incredible. I don't have a favorite era with them. Each is unique and perfect for what they were doing at that time. Man I miss Rush...
love that you get emotional....many of us have and still get the same feelings as when we heard them the 1st times....its nice to re-live it through you two again....cant wait until you get to some of the live stuff.....seeing them do it live is an experience all into itself....understand your reasoning....and I was one who heard their live stuff FIRST , with Exit Stage Left being my 1st Rush album....so for me its harder to hear their studio stuff....love my live Rush...its on another level musically..... keep rocking....
One of the greatest things about Rush is the ARRANGEMENTS. When they put together a song, it seemed to be a group of musical snippets, combined with really deep lyrics often with literary references (Grace Under Pressure is one) a real storytelling insight (read Neil peart's books) and amazing technical chops PLUS dynamic range and tempo changes and composition, and finally the arranging with slight variations with each chorus or a repeated section. All the components came together on this album.
MASTERCLASS! What a beautiful and emotive solo from guitar god Alex!
My second favorite Rush track, the first being Xanadu.
Me too.
No way could I pick a favorite Rush track.
Solid!! My first is La Villa second TCE then Xanadu.
@@carlgibbons5777 I get it. My top 5 has changed so many times.
The would be great to do a marathon. I would suggest starting from their first album and follow through to see their progression and how their music evolved through the years. 🇨🇦✌
i would say start off with "marathon" XD
@@dabassboss4734 I see what you did there... nice!
@@johndavis9196 had to get that joke in there, no matter how terrible it was haha
The way that RUSH constructed there music was like a classical composer you never knew what was coming at you next.
This is my favorite song on Moving Pictures, hot take Tuesday lol
Love Geddy's voice in this tune...so unique. Plus Neil's cymbal work throughout the tune is other world.
Would be cool to see you guys try some 80's Rush. After Moving Pictures they noticeably changed styles and did it successfully. Signals started it and Power Windows they embraced it and it being the best example. Just an awesome album. Maybe you could do a Saturday full listen thru or something. All your Rush followers would be down for that big time.
They just posted a reaction to Subdivisions!
@@sethcashman1011 They did Red Sector A right before that.
Yes! Would love some Power Windows. Especially Marathon.
@@carlgibbons5777 Yep, I remember!
You guys are so awesome; thanks for following our journey! We LOVE to have you!! :) - Lex
Dude, you've got to let your girl get her points across. Sometimes she is on the brink of putting her points across, and you completely cut her off and go on a tangent and she doesn't get to hash out her point. That being said, love your reactions and choice of music to cover. ✌❤🤘
He wouldn’t do that shit with my wife. She’d tell him to shut the fuck up and let her finish. I hate interrupters. They’re basically telling you that what you’re saying is trivial and unimportant, so shut up while I make my brilliant point.
Your doing great dude..you got a hell of a good catch there..smart..
Goosebumps. Every time I listen to this one. My fave Rush track amongst a sea of golden musical magic from my favourite band. Glad you got around to this one :-) Many more still to go - as others have said, the Rush rabbit hole goes deeeeep! :-D
You can’t explain, but I know exactly what you mean. This music doesn’t need words. It goes straight to the heart.
CALLING RUSH FAMILY!!! ** IT'S FINALLY HAPPENING!! ** We are going to be listening to 2112, FULL STUDIO ALBUM!!! It will be LIVE STREAMED & we'll provide the link that we'll be using to listen to the FULL ALBUM and we all HIT PLAY at the SAME TIME!
**SAVE THE DATE, SET A REMINDER for: FRIDAY MARCH 26, 2021 @ 8pm MST// 9PM CST // 10PM EST
ruclips.net/video/Rkae7pIqC_o/видео.html
Grab some snacks and your drink of choice and let's BE THERE FOR LEX to SUPPORT for her BIG TEST she has on the day before!! This will either be a celebration or support-fest! Either way, she's thrilled that SHE HAS SOMETHING TO LOOK FORWARD TO!
We're so thankful for your support and we thought this was a great way to get together, so after listening to the FULL ALBUM, stick around to TALK ABOUT WHAT WE JUST HEARD!
Hope to see you there!!
The opening synth chords were Geddy trying to emulate Genesis, and he felt bad about the song because he didn't think it ended up sounding like Genesis. But it sounds like great Rush!
That’s really interesting - never heard that story. Pretty cocky, in a typically humble-ambitious-fanboy RUSH way. Ged wanted to pull off “The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway” and outdo Tony Banks on the keys? So glad he didn’t. The Camera Eye is one of my absolute faves.
You never heard that story, because it's not true!
@@mrjonesy2112 Incorrect. Geddy mentions it in an interview.
I remember this type of sound coming up in the intro of 1984 from Van Halen. So they were inspired by Rush?
@@Musiquesaecouter Not necessarily. It's down to the same synth being used in both songs, the Oberheim OBX. The distinctive "sample and hold" LFO feature is used in both songs and was a staple sound of the Oberheim OBX. It was used in other songs by various artists, the ending of "Mr. Roboto" by Styx leaps to mind.
This will always be in my top 10 favorite RUSH songs, and I haven’t even ever been to either city. Lol
Thank you Canada!!
Is there anything better than sharing music with the one you love? Both of you are so genuine in your discovery and expression, and it shows. I believe you have the best reaction channel there is and you are just killing it! I just wanted to share my appreciation for you both and say thank you! Another awesome reaction! Rush on!
This is so sweet; thank you so much! Comments like these really make our day and bring a huge smile to our faces. The amount of joy this channel has brought us is indescribable, truly! We love having you and sending peace, Lex. :)
Music is life!!
Well done for covering another deep, magnificent cut from the masters. There are even snippets of London street conversations interspersed. A farewell to 3 kings 😪 but let's be glad for the amazing body of work they have left us.
That is the beauty of Rush. There is 40 years of music to listen to. Their catalog will always have something to offer the listener whether young or old. I have never tired of listening to any of their songs. I even appreciate their song “Tai Shan”. It is supposedly their least favorite song and most fans agree. However, I disagree. It tells a story and conveys mood and feelings like any other Rush song. Keep listening. Cant wait to hear what you both choose next (hint- “The Garden”).
From the comments I’ve read, quite a few fans love Tai Shan. I think it’s an absolutely beautiful song, classic Neil putting sights and experiences into words and music.
Geddy made a point to enunciate every word because Neil's lyrics were such a mouthful, again they're songwriting abilities had reached a point where they're were able to weave in and out within tunes so seamlessly.
You're idea of doing complete album reactions is a super great idea, again I feel you need to get to a chronological order to get a sense of how the boys developed as time went on, the reason Moving Pictures became such a mainstream success is a culmination of what preceded this album, the SEVEN albums released before set the stage for this incredible piece of work!
Everything she said, y’all!! Well done my friend!! Be well!
The live version of this song, available through RUclips channel “ Mystic Rhythms Live” is phenomenal!! Always appreciate these reactions videos in keeping this great bands music alive! Keep up the great work!
👏👏👏👏👏 At some point you should check out Clockwork Angels, their final album. The songs are great on their own, but consider listening to the entire thing, as it is a true concept album, a continuous story with a clear beginning middle and end. And what an end!
When you are ready, check out Rush's final song as a band...The Garden from Clockwork Angels album. Now that Neil has passed on, the song takes on a powerful meaning. Great reactions!
Love Lifeson’s solo in that.
Thanks so much for your support! We’re definitely going to try to save that one for later given that it’s their last piece. But so anxious to dive into EVERYTHINGGGG!!! :) - Lex
I can't listen to The Garden without getting a lump in my throat.
Can’t get through The Garden without tearing up
@@25newrush
When they played The Garden live with the string ensemble I saw them in an outdoor amphitheater with a warm summers night breeze blowing. I got chills when Alex’s solo started. It was a magical moment.
I really like to see a couple discovering Rush together.
Always Always do it with lyrics please
Nothing deep just describing two different cities like looking through a camera eye.
New York and London to be exact.
Vocês são demais! Brasil aqui...
This was so awesome to hear “live”. We heard it on the 2010-2011 tour and then again on RUSH last tour in 2015.
Yes, caught them on that tour in Albuquerque. It was absolutely amazing.
Gotta let Lex react to the 20 minute journey of the masterpiece 2112. That was my intro to Rush in '77 by a friends older brother. I was 11. I'm gonna bug you two about Jinjer -Teacher Teacher until you check it out. 🤘 Check the official vid. It's paramount. Cheers! 🍻
2112 Was my favorite Rush album for so long. That's their hard rock album, that one really is for the stoners and when I was a young wasted youth skater, that album was definetly a big part of my soundtrack! Really really good, but later I found so much more to love about this band!!! Once they did Permanent Waves they really began to speak their own language man. The songs just became so much more touching and sincere as they matured into the 1980's.
This song went from my least favorite on the album to my most favorite over time. It holds up to repeat listening so well..and oh that crunchy bass tone!
I Just stumbled on your channel and love seeing new ******RUSH****** Fans. I've been following them since 1975 and have seen about 90 total concerts only missing the vapor trails tour and test for echoes tour. On the final tour my wife and i seen them in Tampa Fla then Alpharetta GA and finished in Greensboro NC. Watching you two remind me of my wife and I. I wish you could have seen RUSH in the 70s and 80s those were the best times to see RUSH in concert. I subbed to your channel and ENJOY you guys getting into RUSH...What puzzles me is the number of fans that don't have the STAR MAN as an Icon like me for their channel.
Has to be 30 years since I last heard this song ... brought tears to my eyes
Rush has always had this amazing ability to pull so much emotion out of me with their music, the lyrics, the tempo changes, the melodies, the aggressive changes, the individual talents of 3 amazing musicians... so good.
The first song on side B, an underrated piece from Moving Pictures or any Rush songs in general....IMO.
Next song is a doozy as well. Witch Hunt. You can guess what it's about. The lyrics still apply today. One of Neil's finest lines in this song. "Ignorance and prejudice and fear walk hand in hand". Welcome to America. smh
See that was the great thing about Rush. I'm a musician so more so perhaps for me but with Rush they always kept me wondering what kind of killer bass riffs and synth, drum and guitar sounds would they dream up on the next album. And then of course all the live performances, the show production. Ever evolving which was necessary. Of the over 5000+ shows they did they kept it fresh and interesting. Saw a video here a few days ago that asked was Rush scripted. Not to the full extent. They used improve a lot which was necessary to keep it interesting and challenging to play night after night. Yes they had bad nights/shows but they shrugged it off and said to themselves we'll do that much better next show. So any way my thoughts. I like seeing your giddiness. :D!
Thanks for your support! :) - Lex
It's refreshing to see younger people reacting to music I basically grew up on. I discovered Rush in the late 70's when I was just getting into music...back in the days when I was buying albums based on the album art and the name of the album. "Farewell to Kings" was my introduction to Rush and I've been a loyal fan since. Great review!
Just want to know if RUSH is in your top 5 of all time Bands!!!!! You guys are so much better than other reactions. See if can tell us Love DH.
This song transports you to NYC, and London. This truly is a masterpiece both in lyrics and sound. GOT RUSH!
Hey love u guys there are 2 songs necromancer and The fountain of Lambeth u mite want to check out because wants u get past Singnals it is going to be slim Pickens for big time Rush fans, seen them 24 times and I know Rush fans after singnals it goes down hill just trying to u guys. Great job
Have you tried anthem by throwing the snow dog a fell on the Kings trees hemispheres Spirit of the radio free will Tom Sawyer red barchetta YYZ vital signs witch Hunt big money list is endless half the world driven working them angels roll the bones dreamline bravado Marathon mission leaving so many out 2112
Nick, take care of Lex. As unique and special as Rush is, so to is a woman who appreciates Rush. Lex is 1 in a billion.
One of Geddy's best bass moments.
Can u guys PLEASE say WHO'S BETTER THAN THE GREAT RUSH BEFORE U MOVE ON BE COURSE I RESPECT THE GREAT LEXX.
Do 2112!!! Its the best for me!!
Love your reactions Nick and Lexi Keep in mind they were in their early 20s when this was written and played they were already master musicians
You must listen to Spirit of Radio by Rush.The changes are insane.
Its about time someone does this great song off an incredible album Moving Pictures! Vital Signs, Camera Eye, Limelight.
One of my favorites. That being said, Dream Theater - The Glass Prison!!!
Which 2 *f***ers didn't like this!! This is AWSOME !!☮☮☮
Love your reactions, especially Rush!, Give a listen to Rush - 'The Pass' from their 'Presto' album 1989. it's a great song.
Thank you so much for your support! :) - Lex
The Pass is one of their best songs. Not as showy as their earlier work, but it definitely shows another side of their sound.
I hope you can also do a live stream reaction to Dream Theater's discography as well.
I'M A HUGE RUSH FAN! When I was living in North Carolina, I never missed a single RUSH concert over all the years!
Back then ( I am 55 yrs old ) we had time, made time, spent time, friends together and music, before cell phones, before MTV. We didn’t have so many distractions.
This is one Alex's best guitar songs of his career. Surprised buy so little love for him, buy you both.🙁
Also if you like Led Zeppelin & Rush, you should try UFO, a contemporary of both and masterful hard rock band. Love to Love, Rock Bottom & Lights Out would be perfect for you 2. 😊
Hey guys. Can’t help but tap into your emotion. Some day you might want to check out The Garden ; Rush’s swan song. The last song off their last album.It will choke you up. Given Peart having to quit playing then his ultimate demise it is emotional to say the least . Regarding 2112, if you haven’t heard it at all yet, it is darker and more powerful. A stark difference than the ones you’ve heard lately. They let it all hang out in this one
"FREEWILL" , off Permanent waves
Moving pictures is my favourite rush album
Your reviews are my favorite. Do more Rush! Bravado or Marathon live are amazing :)
Thanks so much for your support! :) - Lex
No other group can write a long duration song the way Rush does. You never get bored, they have a way of taking you through it and keeping it interesting the whole time.
I've been married twice and neither wife liked Rush. You're a lucky guy if you're girl likes Rush.
If NickNLex wanna dive Real Deep into Rush do 2112 and/or Hemisperes Cygnus X1, Books 1 and 2. Mind blowing Sci Fi/Fantasy.
The deep cuts are what makes Rush such a beloved band. The song that never made it to radio for whatever reason are so rich in melody, creativity and most of all top tier musicianship. Then you add the meaning instrumentally and lyrically, and you have a formula for songs that will stand the test of time.
In regards to doing a Rush album marathon, Id love to see that. Another idea would also be to do Rush's "Fear" series in one take. The Fear series consist of 4 song which ironically starts with Moving Pictures "Witch Hunt" and continues on successively from album to album. The songs were written in reverse chronological order, comparative to album release. Witch Hunt (part 3), The Weapon (Part 2), The Enemy Within (Part 1). The last song in the series is called "Freeze" and doesn't follow the album release pattern. In regards to this series of song, the lyrics are some of my favorite by Peart. I understand, it's hard to concentrate on the lyrics while listening to such great musicianship but since it's a marathon, have the lyrics available to discuss briefly after each song. Thus far when it comes to reactions, you'd be the first to tackle the series in one take.
I'm loving the Rush reactions, keep em coming. Cheers.
Thank you!! You nailed a whale of a song. I've been asking.
If you traded this for Dream theatre IMO you got the best end of the deal
Saludos desde Argentina amigos muy bueno
This song ALWAYS brings back memories of the Exit: Stage Left video. It was playing in the background at the beginning of the video.
Nick, I love how you break down the instrumentation of this song. Also, thank you for your transparency. You got caught up in the documentary and are reacting in such a deep way to their music.
Thanks man! I couldn’t hold back after knowing them on a different level now. Thank you for your constant support! - Nick
@@NicknLex Absolutely! Your reactions always bring a smile to my face! A wonderful way to relax at the end of the day.
Been listening since 1981,I am 53.. It is ok!
I get emotional on like every Rush song the older I get,no lie... You guys Rock!!!
Awe, Thank you for the heart, {tear}
You should check out "The Necromancer" on A Farewell To Kings. It is of a darker mood, adventure and you could follow that up with Witch Hunt.
The Necromancer is off Caress of Steel. Still, Great song
