If you like this check out Xanadu -Exit Stage Left 1981 , this is a live performance and will take you for a ride and prove these guys can do it live , this was before electronics drums , when the drummer used real percussion with his set ,
An absolute masterpiece by three music gods. My favorite instrumental ever!!
Listen to "Circumstances" on the same Rush album released in 1978 to experience the power of Geddy Lee's voice.
Exactly!
It just shows great music transcends age, creed, and color!
Facts!!!
You have been officially 'Rushified' with this one Bro! This is the song that started my Rush journey...enjoy the ride.
Rush makes we Canadians proud 👏 🇨🇦👊..happy you're discovering Rush Zay...!!
Although the Rush library is quite expansive it rarely has a bad track imo. You seem to be hitting most fans top ten list one by one… ‘Xanadu’, ‘2112’ and ‘Working Man’ gotta be next. Awesome job on the reactions Zay!
La Villa Strangiato is one of my favorite pieces by RUSH. That, 2112, and Hemispheres (both parts) pretty much round out those 'favorites' : )
People throw around “roller coaster” all the time but that song really is like one! Starts off even and slow, and then you just drop in and hang on lol. It jerks from side to side, tumbles you down, whips you round corners…the only thing that’s thankfully not like a coaster is the end, because if you stopped that suddenly you’d fly out of the car and into the log flume next door.
I listen to it every time I’m in a plane as it takes off 🥰
It's so wonderful to listen to that song for the first time again through the eyes of a young man. What a special gift you've given to all of us old timers who first encountered Rush at the same age that you are.
Geddy Lee, bass player for "Rush" was a huge fan of Chris Squire, bass player for "Yes". The last 5 seconds of La Villa Strangiato released in 1978 are almost identical to the last 5 seconds of "Everydays" released in 1970 by "Yes".
You know your stuff!!!!
In my humble opinion this one the very top songs in progressive rock. Right up there with Shine on You Crazy Diamond by Pink Floyd and Roundabout by Yes. It's on another level for sure. Grand masters of their instruments and of studio engineering.
Hell yes Hound!! So much music at that time. I feel all of us were the enlightened ones!!
What do you mean studio engineering> How about live engineering?

Dude....your reaction at the end had me laughing with pride....that you are appreciating SO MUCH....the music us older folks grew up with. Such cool validation!!!!
I play the drums, and this DAM song was always just a bit to hard to play for me..
THATS WHY I LOVE IT!!!!!!
TRY THE SONG, THE TREES ON THE SAME ALBUM..👍
Don’t feel bad, even Neil Peart said this was an extremely difficult song to play.
Witnessed it live, at Market Square Arena, in Indianapolis, on their "tour of the hemispheres"
Words, are of no value, in describing the experience.
You just had to be there.
It does my heart good, to see you enjoying it, my brother!
I was also very fortunate to see this performed live as a teenager, in concert! Outstanding! Father's of Prog Rock!!! Welcome to the Rush Nation Young man!!!!
Rush weren't the fathers of prog. rock at all. The real founders had all done their best work by the time Rush did their first prog. album.
@@psbarrow thank you
@@BoudicaAngel7359, way to stay classy! This song alone should have gotten them into the Hall o Fame
This was based on some nightmare that guitarist Alex Lifeson was having. It is in multiple parts including Monsters. It begins with the light falling asleep flamenco guitar and ends abruptly just as if you woke up from a nightmare sitting straight up and looking around to see if it was real.
I still feel that way when I listen to Rush. I got to see them live several times. One of the best live acts ever. You forget that there's only 3 guys playing.
So blessed to have been a teen in the 70's and a fan of Rush since the first album.. and getting to see them 4 times in the late 70's, early 80's live... unmatched. Best band ever! #RushArmy It's so great to be able to watch you discover the music of my youth... it really was an amazing time in the world of music. Recommendations? Start with album 1 (even though this isn't Neil Peart (pronounced Peert, not Pert) there's some songs definitely worth hearing from this album and then just work your way through 40+ years of discography. Personally my favorite Rush music is the 70's into the early 80's.. but I have found quite a few songs after that period I really do like... even though they were more commercialized/radio feeling for the most part (to me, my opinion, everyone has one right?). But the very LAST SONG ON THEIR VERY LAST ALBUM brings tears to my eyes every time I hear it, it's simply beautiful. Yes, I'm purposely not dropping song names so you can research and listen to them all... the list would be very long if I started naming songs you don't want to miss. Rush Fans will be here for it if you go down this amazing rabbit hole!
Absolutely LOVE "The Garden". To me the best version of it was live in Dallas.
@@BalokLives yes... I've watched that video so many times. Wish I would have been there live.. if only.. now I live 40 minutes from downtown Dallas.. oh well.
Zay, I was lucky enough to see Rush at the NY state fair probably 8 or so years ago. Absolutely fantastic! Rush is one of the very few bands that has stood the test of time, as in their newer albums hold up to their older work. Not many older bands could do that. "YYZ" by them will literally blow your brain cells.
Not sure you'll ever see this, but shout out to you...I'm a 63 year old rocker from back when rock music was real...I enjoy your honest reactions, and the respect you give to these bands that we got to be the first to hear, appreciate, and perhaps, a wee bit o'420...thank you...and enjoy your journey down the RUSH rabbit hole...Rock ON!
I got to see Rush during their Moving Pictures tour in 1981. They are an amazing live band who can play their songs note for note as though you were listening to the studio version. This was a double Canadian shot since April Wine opened up for them. Great concert
April Wine by far my favorite name for a band that’s just so awesome
Oh man, would have loved to see them on that tour. I first caught them live on Signals...then saw the Grace Under Pressure and Power Windows tours.
Now you see why we couldn’t have a favorite band in the 70’s. There were too many excellent bands! You just picked the band you listened to by how you were feeling at that time. While I have never been a big fan of Geddy’s voice, the musical expertise of the three gentlemen was incredible. They sounded exactly the same live…the sign of a great band that didn’t need studio production to achieve their sound.
Listen to the original studio cut of "Working Man" from 1974. It will blow you away. Then listen to the live video for "Working Man" (Live in Cleveland 2011 Time Machine Tour), which they play at the END of a 3-hour show 37 years later. It will gather all your blown-away bits, put them back together, and blow you away again even more.
Other live videos to see: YYZ (Live in Rio), Xanadu (1981 Exit...Stage Left tour), Where's My Thing/Here It Is! (with drum solo, live in Dallas).
Other songs: Spirit of Radio (can't remember if you did this already), Limelight, Freewill, 2112 (with lyrics, it's 20 minutes long so be prepared, and do the whole thing), Cygnus X-1 Book I: The Voyage, Cygnus X-1 Book II: Hemispheres, Subdivisions, The Analog Kid, Red Barchetta, Territories, The Weapon, Red Sector A, Natural Science, By-tor and the Snow Dog, The Fountain of Lamneth, Countdown, Losing It, The Big Money, Time Stand Still, Bravado, The Pass, Scars, Marathon, The Mission, The Big Money....yeah, just listen to everything they've ever done.
Led Zeppelin, Rush , Alice In Chains and Tool , Pink Floyd will always do you right. Keep up the good work.
Great to see a younger generation listening to Rush.
Nice reaction. Enjoy the ride 😎
My favourite Rush tune, love Peart's drumming in the middle.
My favorite tune of theirs. And I'm glad you played the studio version, which, IMHO, is the best version. Another treat from (one of) the greatest rock bands ever.
Oh yeah. Sorry. Dude you're in. No turning back now. This is epic. Advice? Just start with the first lp. Listen in order. Grew up with all this. Learning drums with Zepp. Then Rush. Love this older Rush. So amazing. Seen them in the 70's when I was in high school. 3 times. $7
La Villa Strangiato: An Italian/Spanish mashup loosely translating to "The Strange House," this was said to have been inspired by a dream that Alex, the guitarist (I think it was his) had had one night. Let me just say, if this is a Strange House, sign me up for a house tour!
Also, that sound at around the 4:50 mark wasn't thunder, that was just Neil applauding your choice for today's reaction.
Brava!
It was Alex, but the song was written about a recurring nightmare he had... probably don't want to go there.
Zay, I was lucky enough to see this performed live, along with “Tom Sawyer” before released a million yrs ago (70’s). The Hemispheres album is really very nice. Hope your doing “La Villa” from this record. All the intention and nuances can be found there. Love the choices and the channel. As always, shoutout to Zel. 🤘😎
I was fortunate enough to see them perform that live a few times. What a band.
Geddy Lee once said: "We have the most fragrant audience's at our shows"...I saw them in Germany in the early 80's, and you really can appreciate them even more seeing them do these songs live...it's impressive to say the least...Rock ON!
Rush have great fans and we're very welcming of new ones. This instrumental never gets old for me, and the solo? Gorgeous.
Crazy ride, written about a recurring nightmare Alex had. Like most bad dreams, it starts out light and airy, restful, then goes dark, ebbing and flowing between the dark and light, and again, like most dreams, ends before it's concluded. Stopping mid-bar as they did was musical genius! You get the sense of being jerked awake in the middle of the drama as the song is building and then just stops. SO GOOD! Peart puts on a clinic on drums, running through some of his jazzy chops; you could almost be entertained listening to only his work on the cymbals alone. Like most Rush tunes, both Alex and Geddy play multiple instruments as well as put some well-placed effects on them as they play. They're all virtuoso and "tight" doesn't even begin to describe them.
I was blessed to see Rush on July 12, 1984, 2 months before my 14th birthday. Sadly, this was not on the set list. Here is what they played that night...

One of my top 4 bands! Seen them 3x in concert, 3 of the best shows I ever saw.
my other 3 bands, Yes, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin...
Dude, I discovered that you played college hoops man that is so cool. This is a difficult composition for most people to wrap their heads around including the band members of Rush who at one point said it was one of the most difficult things they ever attempted. But I'm so glad you enjoyed it man you were tracking along with it every second and just totally got it.
I don't know what role you play in the college ball but you know you can liken it sometimes to the way this kind of really amazing music is put together. It is certainly a team effort. And if you ever take a different route or maybe even at the same time although probably later in life I would say, definitely check out being a musician, it seems like you are instinctively already in that direction.
Please watch La Villa Live in Cleveland.. One of the greatest instrumentals played by the best band ever to grace a stage. Virtuosos all!
That song has been giving me goose bumps for 40 years great reaction brother
That guitar solo is top three in my book! So inventive, emotive and smokin'......
Great reaction to a masterpiece! Doesn’t get any better than this song. One of Alex’s best solos. And Neil is killing it (as always).
It’s storming it’s ass off here now and between here and now and there the thunder in the background really adds another dimension to the song
Love it. It works
Love your Rush reactions Zay, great stuff!!
Neil Peart's favorite Drummer was Keith Moon. They called Keith Moon "The Loon". Neil took some of his stuff from Keith and also John Bohnam. Keith was the drummer for The Who. The Who did an album in 1971 called Who's Next. You gotta rate Won't Get Fooled Again and Baba O'Reilly. You will lose your shit with those two!!!!!! Trust me!!!! My love to you and Mom and your friend!!!!! Be well and stay safe!!!!!!!!!!!
Great reaction!! Your first time listening to this, is exactly what I felt when I first heard this...no words, just amazing!! Looking forward to seeing more Rush reactions.
As a guy that grew up with Rush I can say, start with 2112 and listen to the albums in succession to see how they grew in every aspect of musicianship and recording experts. Then, be amazed that they could reproduce everything live exactly as recorded. One of they very few bands that could pull that off. And they did it consistently!!!!
As they composed this masterwork they realized they needed to record it in 3 sections as it proved too daunting even for these maestros to play the whole track in one continuous take in studio, they swore off songs of this length and complexity after this album yet managed to play it (damn near) flawlessly in concert on a few tours since
Amazing group, I heard undertones of heavy metal beats in there towards the middle 6:29, way before its time.
Think of all the music you've been exposed to that came out after 1978 and try to imagine none of it existing and you being in 1978 hearing this for the first time. I was 13 years old and mesmerized. Not that there weren't a lot of incredible bands back then and prior, but this was way outside the realm of any thing I had heard to that point.
Ride the Rush! The unexpected fact there was thunder on your side(pun intended) was a Godly timing for your listening experience - for the audience that is, too bad you couldn't catch it through your headphones because it could not have come at the precise moment of the section. Hands down the best react on yt period. Been on a Rush ride for over 30 years since I was 14 years old teenager - that's 3/4 of my life now 😂. One of my personal favorites from that prime late 70s/early 80s era of Rush is the song Vital Signs from the same album Tom Sawyer is on Moving Pictures - you must check out Vital Signs!
One is only truly initiated into the Rush zone after one has ventured into Xanadu live from Exit Stage Left, and from there into the albums 2112, Hemispheres and A Farewell to Kings. THEN you are in for the whole ride, and you may never escape!!
This song was the gold standard for drummers.....Vinnie Paul of Pantera said it took everything you had just to get through it.
That is correct.. "Greatness"!!! 👍🇬🇧
I have just passed the 5-minute mark when thunder rolls and you put the caption up and then you comment on the beginning of this guitar solo that you like the sounds. I just wanted to tell you that those are known as volume swells on the guitar.
I've watched maybe five of your actions now and you're comment before that you didn't know that much about guitar but you can still clearly get into Stevie Ray Vaughan.
Alex lifeson of Rush is a fantastic guitarist. And what a volume swell is, is when you are playing in front of a live audience or of course in the studio but it's more fun in front of a live audience because it's a little riskier, but you use your pinky to turn down the volume knob of whatever pickup you've selected on your guitar. And that's a simplified version of it for sure depending upon what kind of architecture there is on the layout of your guitar in terms of the volume and tone controls and the various pickups and the combinations of them that are possible. It's actually quite the thing to figure that out for each instrument.
But a volume swell is when you reach down with your pinky and Slide the volume all the way off and then you strike the next thing with intention as you immediately start bringing the volume up with your pinky on the volume knob and you can run it back and forth to get that kind of vibrato in there like he's doing? All that stuff. And you notice the volume gets louder and louder and then he keeps the volume up and rips into the first guitar solo, but there is one coming up that's even more mind-blowing.
First, love this reaction. Second, love the storm happening. You should consider reacting to "Jacob's Ladder".
I'd do Working Man - Live in Cleveland.next. And Neil Peart live drum solos. They were my first concert in 1981 (I was 14), and it was in Dallas. My friend's brother got us the tickets, and we got 2nd row, right in front of Alex Lifeson (guitarist) in '81. You should watch the live versions of Xanadu, Closer to the Heart (live in Rio), YYZ (live in Rio). The US Army sang "Time Stands Still" as a tribute to Neil after the died. His death hit me hard, and it still chokes me up.
Welcome to the Rush rabbit-hole!
For a great live performance, Xanadu 1981 - you simply won't believe your eyes......
Flippin yes!!@ Pape and Danforth where I grew up.... first started hearing my boys 46 urs wooooo
so glad you finally got to this song. I think you might be ready to hear Yes's "Gates of Delirium"
Imagine just 3 man band absolutely mind blowing 😱😱😱they all are masters musicians 👌😁no band play like this anymore
My time of growing up! Such a fascinating time!
Dude! Didn't know you were an athlete!
I LOVE watching you discover Rush!
Yes, the instrumentals are legendary, but, their lyrics are great, too.
Check out Marathon... I'm sure, being an athlete, they might just hit you (in a great way)
Carry on, man... I really dig what you're doing!
Listening to this song...is a spiritual experience.🙃 I used it as a pregame pump up as well (way back in the day)
Alex’s nightmare. The guitarist came up with this out of a dream. The opening guitar part in the live version is insane.
lmao....yep...that's the way I felt the first time I heard it at midnight when the album was released.
You could do Subdivisions. Its a great song. Fun fact, When I lived in Uxbridge my neighbor down the road was Alex Lifeson and my other neighbor in the opposite end of the road was the Dark Lord himself Hayden Christensen.
The thunder outside was a nice touch
Lightning crashes as the song goes atmospheric...right on
Heard this song 100s of times, maybe my favorite Rush song, but never seen this video. I found it sadly ironic with all the brain scan images that brain cancer is what robbed the world of Neil Peart.
Check Working Man. It's the one that broke them. Badass
I. Buenas Noches, Mein Froinds!
II. To sleep, perchance to dream…
III. Strangiato Theme
IV. A Lerxst in Wonderland
V. Monsters!
VI. Danforth and Pape
VII. The Waltz of the Shreves
VIII. Never turn your back on a Monster!
IX. Monsters! (Reprise)
X. Strangiato Theme (Reprise)
XI. A Farewell to Things
Cygnus!!!! He's ready for the journey !!!
If you like the drums on this you should do reaction videos on the drum cover for this. There are some good ones out there and you get to see how complex the arrangement is.
Now you see why Rush fans are loyal to their band!!!
Love your photo 📸 😆🤣😂😃
Good luck with the ballin sir👍🏻
O ly saw them live once, they did a medley with part of this, but I never got to hear the whole song live. We used to try and play it when we were young, it was a mess lol
What you just heard was progressive rock at its best. Rush are among the elite when it comes to prog rock bands. You should listen to the album this song is off of, Its called hemispheres. You will be thinking it's impossible that only three people are in this band. In the meantime check out Xanadu from their 1981 concert in Montreal to see how three people can do this
An Excercise In Self Indulgence.
You say that like it’s a bad thing.
Hey Zay. Missed your live take on La Villa.....is this song not THE BOMB??!!! Other than a few of their more keyboard influenced albums in the 80's.....their whole catalogue just straight kicks ass!!!! Just like THIS song.
I saw Rush 5 times, and they did this live , just three guys....
Rush has a tendency to melt your brain. There's a lot going on for 3 guys. I highly recommend The Necromancer. Will make this one look tame.
ZAY, For the STRANGIATO name of this song, you pronounce the “G” soft- like a “J”-like in the word “strange”. But you pronounce the (1st) letter “AN” soft as well.. as in the word “pawn”. So, it sounds like this:
Strawn - jee- Otto
Stran-gi-ato
we only have to listen to this nightmare, alex had to dream it repeatedly! :) EVH was being interviewed and was asked what it felt like to be the greatest rock guitarist on the planet, and he said he didnt know and to go ask alex lifeson. alex is THAT good
Please do there epic 2112. Trust me when I say, it will blow your mind.
I don’t so much like Geddy Lee’s voice but their instrumentation is 10/10 so this and YYZ are perfect for me
No choice but to Surrender to the musical madness!
Please review Rush Working Man live in Cleveland.
xanadu by rush will blow your mind
Homes, are you blown away or what?!!
Could you imagine them writing a score for a really good movie
Check out 2112 👍🏼 Powerful
They tried recording this as one piece and couldn't do it. They had to break it up into 3 sections in order to get it right.
Should have done official video.
CULTURAL APPROPRIATION!
they play this song at live and they are only tree men, they had to practice and study a lot because it was not easy
YOUR OVERLOADING BRO
Since you like progressive music you should try a tune called "Cruise Control" from the Dixie Dreggs album Freefall
hehehe and just to freak yourself out a little more.... you should see them do it live.
Zay.... dont get to used to that version... listen to it on the live album... RUSH..... Exit Stage Left.... you GOTTA listen too THAT version specifically brother.... seriously... check it out... PEACE
