      @Chairman of the Board Wrong. I'm not a native speaker of English but I do know this.
      "Whom" is never the subject (only object), but "who" can be the subject. And the sentence "who ever lived" has "who" as subject. "I know someone who can help." Answer: he (the "who" who can help). "Whom have you called?" Answer: him (the "whom" who was called).
      Look it up in a reputable source if you don't believe me. :-)

      Many casual fans of Rush often overlook Geddy Lee. The hardcore fans of Rush and of good rock music understand his musical ability is second to none.
      "I can't believe that's 3 guys" Actually Geddy is equivalent to about 3 guys with his badass bass, multiple keyboards and 3 octaves vocals.
      Geddy's backstory for starting the band is incredible as well. His father who survived the Holocaust passed away when Geddy was young and his mom who also survived the concentration camps had to work very hard to raise her family.
      Geddy started a band in their basement and dropped out of school as they got some local notice. Not wanting to disappoint his mother who had been through so much he worked extremely hard to prove to her his rock career was going to be successful.
      Canada can be very honored to have such welcoming arms to so many survivors of horrors of evil men from around the world.

    • @joshhale9355
      @joshhale9355 3 года назад +1

      Vocals have always been a major part of “instrumentation”. You can sing insanely but it always is another part of the piece. Geddy’s voice is so perfect because it was so outlandish for a rock singer to sing in that register he did, it was almost an alto when most rock singers were in the standard tenor range, he really made his voice a standard in rock and it adds so much to the music.

    I haven't seen anyone else mention it so: this song was written as a tribute to the Toronto radio station CFNY 102.1 FM. It was one of the very first 'alternative' stations, started in the 1970s. They began to call themselves "The Spirit of Radio" and were one of the first radio stations to play Rush. In return, Rush wrote this song for them, and made sure the catalog number for the 'Permanent Waves' album was 1021.
    Sadly, CFNY is now 102.1, "The Edge", and plays the same 'alternative' music (Red Hot Chili Peppers and The Foo Fighters) that everyone else plays. But longtime Toronto radio listeners will remember when CFNY was FuNnY radio, and played stuff no one else had the guts to play.

Sadly, no chance of seeing them in concert now. RIP, Neil Peart. I love how he has been described as "Your favourite drummer's favourite drummer.

      Funny timing for this video, I've had 2112 stuck in my head for about the last week.

      2112 - One of the greatest albums ever made.

    Shaq, it's Geddy Lee on bass and keyboards, Alex Lifeson on guitar, and the greatest living rock drummer Neal Peart. Geddy's voice is a high tenor/low alto and quite unique, isn't it? His voice was very powerful too. One of the great rock groups, no doubt.

    First time seeing Shaq! LoL and is the best reaction and this band is SO deserving!! RUSH is the ultimate Canadian Rock Band from the 70s.. I saw them twice in Florida 40 yrs ago and I'll never forget it!

    Yep, three dudes, that's it.
    The drummer is the one and only Neal Peart. A drum god. He's so good that he would be the dude we pointed at as a master human when aliens wonder what the hell we are. :-)

      George Thick he's definitely going to hit a million before the end of the year. He only had 200k a few months ago. He's definitely my favorite as well.

    "that emotional rollercoaster" you are riding...I wish I could relive it again for the first time.
    Listen to the song again. Visualize a radio dial and clicking on stations. Rock, Reggae (the Hawaiian music), and talk....Now read the lyrics "Glittering prizes and endless compromises, shatter the illusion of integrity" and realize that what you have just heard from three of the greatest MUSICIANS off all time and a poet writing lyrics, is that you are now viewing life THROUGH them. And that, my friend, is art.
