You recognize the great musicianship and things like the time signature changes as well as the depth of the lyrics. I'm guessing you're a musician? God Bless

  • @lvgelfling72
    @lvgelfling72 4 ปีที่แล้ว +42

    One of the deepest songs of all time. About how we all live in our own bubbles, and we are all just so tiny compared to our country, world, galaxy, galaxies, and so on..... And how all things in life have a natural course. It's so easy to be distracted by synthetic things and people, losing sight of gratitude, primarily, for just 'being' - being alive in this time, for being just a microcosim .. This songs story sort of parallels Dr Seuss" Horton Hears a Who... We are just microcosms living where we do, not realizing we are living in an elephants ear, completely unaware of how insignificant we actually are in the galaxy.
    So glad you are back!! Thank you for your reaction.. Amazing as always

    I will never forget, in 2003, standing in the 5th row, some 20 feet away from the best live band ever, when I heard them start this song. My arms fell limply to my sides as I gazed up a little at the stage lights. I murmured to myself, "Natural Science..." and floated away for the next 10 minutes.

    Welcome back YO! Can’t express how glad I am that you’re checking out Neil’s lyrics - they will always blow you away, and are (to me) fully half the Rush experience because you’ll LEARN something from every piece. And, you surely *get* this song. Notice part 3 is the name of the album - I think it’s because those crashing waves at the end will always be here as a part of existence...be it personal or the entire universe! One of the most important things i’ve Learned from Rush, it’s to ALWAYS check out the last song on any album.
    Now, understanding this song, check out George Carlin’s ‘save the planet’ bit - he also points out just how insignificant we are, and how ridiculous our personal causes are in the grander scheme of things like.....TIME.

    After the acoustic intro, they break into a common time 4/4 signature with that sweet guitar riff, but then they break into the odd 7/8 time signature throwing everyone off. I’d like to see someone try to dance to this song with all of those time signature changes, especially to the odd ones? This particular song is a time signature nightmare, going even/odd so many times. Only Rush does this stuff.
    Rush loves that 7/8 time signature. I heard an interview where they asked Geddy his favorite time signature and he quickly answered, “7/8, of course, I’m in Rush”. I loved it. Only Geddy would have an odd signature as his favorite.
    Jay, you really do get Rush, the time signature shifts, the complexity of the bass and drums in their syncopation and you even dig deep into the lyrics, quickly capturing the message Peart intended.
    I’ve watch several of your Rush reactions and they have been some of the most insightful reactions to Rush music I have seen, which is not easy. Rush’s music just overwhelms most, who become too distracted by the busy nature of the musical stunts to catch the deep messages they contain, compared to the average “my girl just dumped my ass and I’m depressed and whining about it..... la la la”, as if there isn’t more important things going on in this world; lyrics that 99% of all other music themes are based on.
    Not that there is anything wrong with a good heartbreak song, but when 99.9999999% of all rock songs are about that, it is refreshing to listen to some Rush, who proves there is more to sing about than whining about losing your latest girlfriend.
    I mean, I had serval relationships that didn’t go the distance before meeting my beloved wife of 23 years. I may have been a bit down over losing others, but certainly don’t regret not making the mistake of marrying any of them. I can’t imagine being with anyone but my wife, so life is full of relationships, isn’t that how we eventually find that right one?
    After losing all of my intestines in an accident, both large and small (the small intestines being the ones you can’t live without), nearly losing me twice in both operations. Then having twice been in septic shock from the TPN they fed me with in the six months I lived with no intestines and every doctor told us intestinal transplants were not possible.
    They were giving me 18 months to live because the TPN was also killing me, that is if an infection did kill me first from the high sugar content of the TPN. Almost died twice from sepsis bacteremia, then a fungemia causing septic shock, fevers in excess of 105.6°F and BP as low as 41/28.
    Only my wife, who researched until she found out there were only 6 hospitals in the world who had successfully performed intestinal transplants, so I underwent the transplant in 2010. Went pretty well, until I contracted a pseudomonas, gram negative line infection while I had no immune system.
    They have to kill your entire immune system for the transplant to take initially. I was in septic shock again, this time a BP as low as 35/28, the doctors did not believe possible, so they used 3 different machines and all showed 35/28. I then spent more than 2 weeks in a coma and they perforated my right lung while intubating me. The lung collapsed. The two conditions should have killed me, but somehow I refuse to die. They told my wife I would be brain damaged because of the super low BP, but somehow that didn’t happen, thankfully. I was giving the nickname “Wolverine” by nurses and doctors because of the way I kept coming back from certain death.
    In 2013, I was diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma, an incurable and terminal cancer of the bone marrow which was caused by the Campath chemo drug they had to use for the transplant to work. I can’t complain, because the four other intestinal recipients I met at the same hospital that year have all since died from complications from the transplant. The last died 6 years ago, but I keep going.
    I also had to have a bone marrow transplant 2017 because the Multiple Myeloma had reached critical levels at 23%. It is in remission at this time, but it will be back, like the Terminator. Anyway, after all that, girl friends dumping me seems pretty trivial from my past. I sure realize there is much more to rejoice in every day.
    The fact that my wife never once left my side throughout 14 straight months in the hospital, where we witnessed many spouses bail on their spouse at the worst time. They just couldn’t handle the strain, but my wife is still around 11 years later. That’s real love, not the shit they sing about in many songs.
    I don’t mean to depress people, but to uplift them. If you haven’t had to endure any such disasters in your life, be thankful and enjoy every day. Don’t take your life because someone dumped you. There always someone better out there and something better. If I haven’t lost the spirit to go on, I can’t see why anyone should.

    This is my favorite Rush song. It expresses the quintessential message of nearly all Rush songs not to mention insane musicality... Natural and endemic human honesty, compassion, integrity vs the influences of manipulation through politics, religion, marketing. Calling that honesty 'endangered'. Yet this human existential drama plays out against the backdrop of the much more massive and encompassing natural forces both earthbound and galactic, that obliterate our human concerns. Our cultural and philosophic concerns are so critical to our own human existence and lifespans, yet ultimately so insignificant in the context of those natural and universal forces.

They were singing the harmonies to a number of songs but for Natural Science, their participation emphasized the haunting undertone of the song making it, in my opinion, the best recorded impromptu collaboration between a band and the audience, definitely worth a listen.
    Oh, and once again, please react to "Headlong Flight"! Solos and drum fills and licks, oh my!

    What a great way for you to return with a banger from Rush. This is one of the best progressive songs for both the music and the lyrics. Their ability to change time signatures so smoothly and still keep the listener's ear is just brilliant. To me basically, Neil is saying nature will do it"s thing and we must learn to coexist and do our part tohelp perserve the planet .

    Welcome back and great reaction! This is high on my list of favorite Rush songs, both lyrically and musically. Glad you picked up that point for the “art as expression, not as market campaigns” line. Art certainly has its place as a product to be consumed and used in advertising, but its primal and primary function is to move and inspire us, to improve our quality of life. It’s sad to see people who don’t get that, and their only connection to art of any kind is as a product for empty consumption, then on to the next disposable experience that may bring momentary amusement, but not the kind of joy taking the time to immerse yourself in art can deliver to your soul.

    I do love your reactions, they come across as so honest and human. With that in mind, I would be very interested in your reaction to Rush’s “Nobody’s Hero,” off of their Counterparts albums. It has an excellent official video that you could watch on your own time but I don’t know if you could do a public reaction to it that wouldn’t get blocked. But the lyric video would be fine. It’s Rush at their most human & humane. Just keep up the good work. I subscribed for a reason.…

    YEAH! My all time #1 favorite Rush song! EPIC and tight jam. This song tore your face off, didn't it Jay Rah? LOVE THAT! I consider Permanent Waves to be a perfect Rush album, and this is how they closed the album.

    Jay Rah now you understand why Rush fans are forever. This band never gave into corporate greed. They made the music they wanted, true integrity. There will never be a group like Rush.

    Another lyric video you should check out from rush is losing it. It’s the only time in the career that they had a guest musician play along with them with an electric violin. The solo between him and Alex is beautiful and the lyrics will make you weep. Another song from them that had a guest vocalist is Time stand still. A good song but more popish.

    8:14 Only in a Rush song can a badass guitar solo reach it's peak and you will hear someone say "Oh, this bass!". lol
    I so get that. Alex was KILLIN' IT, but so was Geddy & Neil. You have great ears for Rush.

    Oh sure, about humanity, but it’s about how life and species evolve, come, and go. The transitions represent part of the evolution, some returning, others not heard again. It’s introspection *and* observation.

    The album, Permanent Waves, was released in January 1980 (yes, FORTY years ago!). Rush decided to forgo the concept album with side-long songs for shorter, just as powerful tunes. The album opens with the punch in the face masterpiece, "The Spirit of Radio." The band chose songs to open albums to set a mood. Listen to the 18 studio albums with Neil Peart and which songs they chose. To me, they usually are the "best" songs! Fact check me!
    Anyway, Permanent Waves had almost been completed and Rush reserved time at the end for a song to be written in the studio. That song was "Natural Science." What a way to bookend an album!! "The Spirit of Radio" to open and "Natural Science" to close! Sheer prog rock perfection! 💜💜💜

    Sir. I really appreciate your voyage with Rush.. it reminds me of myself 35 years ago. You have a very sensitive ears, a feel for complex retheme and a sharp mind while analyzing the art of Rush. It is a pleasure watching your videos. Regards from Israel...

    Now THAT is how you end an album! I bought it on the day of release, back in the first week of January '80, as a thirteen year old kid. To start with the now iconic 'The Spirit Of Radio', and finish with this progressive masterpiece blew my young mind, and set me up with a love affair with Rush that is still with me to this present day! Such sweet memories baby! 👌

    10K SOON! been with you since 1K and that really wasn't too long ago. Keep up the great work. 20K to 50 to 100 soon enough. I know you don't like the lyric breakdown but doing just a little bit of research on the band the album or song really does make your fans happy to see when you get the aha moment and understand what we understand versus asking a bunch of questions for the comment section thanks again

    YES MAN! First off, so happy to have you back 🙏 second, can’t believe you actually did Natural Science. Easily one of my favorites. I think your ready to go on the ultimate Rush journey and react to both books of Cygnus X-1

  • @RaymondBCrisp
    @RaymondBCrisp 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    First of all, great to see you back! Second, many consider this to be Rush's magnum opus and an epic track from prog rock in general. Third, great reaction! Given this song's status among Rush fans, it's no surprise you were impressed with their time signature and tempo changes, their chord progressions, Geddy's bass and synth play, Neil's masterwork lyrically and percussion-wise, Alex's smoking hot solo...basically everything about the song. Cheers!

    With Neil's passing, we lost someone so special.
    All I can say, enjoy the musical journey RUSH has given us!
    And never forget it.
    The most endangered species 'The honest man'
    Thus the world we live today!
    RIP Neil, your wisdom and lyrical genius is deeply missed.
    My heart aches!
