YYZ is the call sign for Toronto-Pearson International Airport. The opening of the song is a simiulation of the morse code tfansmisdion given out for aircraft transponders to recognize. Alex Lifeson, who is a pilot heard it and thought it would be a great idea for a song. The song represents the controlled chaos of a major airport. The solo Alex created has a touch of Indian influence to honor the international travelers coming through the airport. Great song!
Correct. You beat me to the explanation.
Close. Neil heard it, Alex was flying.
If you want to hear the Indian (eastern European as well) influence, listen to the Vitamin String Quartet's version.
Alex was up in the cockpit. Geddy and Neil heard it over the transponder and thought it would be cool opening to a song. they were jamming to it as Alex walked in and heard it then added his parts
I didn’t know that
Is there any other Morse Code in the song? The ending of the intro sounds like it might be.
The mastery of musicianship and mastery of tempo is off the charts with this band.
Did he say sounds like Sonic? You need to listen to more music little brother.
Only instrumental I've ever seen crowds actually sing along. What a testimony to their greatness
Well, fans of Polyphia sing along, and their song have no vocals.
People sing instrumentals and melodies of songs a lot in countries outside of the US. I’ve seen it a lot on Latin American countries and European countries especially.
My fave version of this song is on their live album Exit...Stage Left. Best drum solo by the Professor
Dean Town - Vulfpeck also but this is equal best.
Awwwww frick yeah doing some RUSH! That’s what’s up!! When you guys are feeling bold try out ‘2112’, Lex will LOVE the music, and Brad will LOVE the lyrics!! Trust! Cheers guys great video, great seeing your younger bro! 🙌🏻🔥
- Andy
Love your channel!
Even though you heard the studio version of YYZ you really need to hear the live version ,, YYZ live in Rio , 60,000 fans singing to an instrumental, And also this song was one of the top songs for Guitar Hero , With 2112 you do need the Studio version , USA the Cartoon one , a you real,y need to follow the lyrics , it would even be a good idea to check out just the lyrics first , this is about a tyrant society that does not allow music , a guy finds a guitar and try’s to convince the society leader to accept the guitar , The singer Bass player sings all the characters in this rock opera ,
Wouldn't mind seeing them do Passage To Bangkok...
You Guys need a couple more Rush songs it’s been a long break , Headlong Flight Studio version , Also-though you did the studio version of Working man Working man live in Cleveland is a must reaction , you will not regret it ,
Andy and Alex even though you did the studio version of working man you really need to do the live version , workingman live in Cleveland this is a must , Also the studio version of Headlong flight , It’s been a long time since you did Rush in my option 😏
What a live version. The whole crowd vocally matches the music.... Insane. Yes the crowd is literally beating like a heart beat.
Check out the live version from Rio. 80,000 people singing a instrumental, it’s insane!👍🔥🎧🤘🏻
I was gonna say this, but I figured someone else had commented already. Yes! Do the live version! 🤘🏼
@@evenflowsteven It is worth it and bears repeating as I did above. 😊
hey man, I just went and checked this out on your recommendation and you weren't lying, it's 100% amazing. That crowd is on FIRE. I'm going to watch the whole show, but I'm gonna wait until I get my whole home theater system set up because I want it to be as excellent as possible the first time I see it lol
Yep - *definitely* needs to be seen live! Keep in mind, this is only three guys - all those "sound effects" are being made by Alex, Neal, and Geddy as just one more part of all the rest of this energy torrent! Definitely check out the live version of this song from the "Rush in Rio" DVD - the sight of 40,000 Brazilians singing along to an *instrumental* is one not to be missed!
What Grady Said! Live from Rush in Rio.... Whole different vibe that Lex would find "LIT"
I agree, That is amazing that 3 musicians can make all that sound!
A must!
need the live from Rio YYZ to get the full effect. Crowd is pulsing,
Enthusiastically seconded!!
Same
This. There is nothing like hearing a crowd singing along to a song that had no lyrics to appreciate just how into it they are.
there is no crowd on the planet like Rio... it defies explanation.
Same
Not only is YYZ the airport code for Toronto, the cymbals at the beginning are tapping out YYZ in morse code.
That's part of great bands genius, They mine every possible opportunity to add another layer of informative depth to a song. Rush is one of the best at that.
So is the opening guitar riff
It's not just the tapping at the beginning. It's all throughout the song with all instruments.
musicianship is off the charts
I'm sure there are already a hundred comments below telling you that you need to see and hear the live version off of Rush in Rio. It is THE definitive performance of this track.
ya they really do !!
Must see the live version from Rio. You have to remember, this is all done by just THREE musicians. These guys are/were (RIP Neal) phenomenal players!
No sound affects just a guitar, bass and drums from three really talented musicians.
Some synth too
This particular song actually HAS some sound effects too (the breaking glass) 😉
To understand and feel the power of this band, watching this live in Rio is a must. Obviously you guys no that its an instrumental now.😂👍🎶
I am a retired Bass Player, and listen to the excellence of both The Bass and Lead Guitar riffs plus we always have the best drummer doing fills that are out of this world!!! I remember seeing huge banners at Rush Concerts In Canada That Said “ Rush The Greatest Band In The Galaxy” And I agree🎸🎸. Rush is a musicians favorite band, because if you have never tried to play a bass guitar or lead guitar or drums you really can’t fathom how difficult the music is that they are playing!! Wow
You guys need to watch the live version from Rio! Even if you just watch for yourselves. The crowd is totally vibing!
Agreed! LIVE in Rio is awesome. The crowd is singing, SINGING, the instrumental.
Yes!
Once you've reacted, you should treat yourselves and watch live versions of all their songs. They are one of those bands that sound even better live! Three elite musicians that don't need to say a word to leave you in awe! Best Band EVA! Next up, another instrumental....La Villa Strangiato! Masterpiece.
They sound better live for sure. Another reason I love to watch them perform is how their hands work 😱 Watching Alex play guitar. Watching Geddy play his bass and keyboard. And of course, Neil in those drums. So incredible to watch.
I'd say go listen to the Primus covers of those songs and get a better appreciation for the bass lines that get lost in the Rush versions. Primus somehow takes exactly what was written reproduces it very faithfully but with that Primus twang that accentuates every note to the 11th degree.
Rush is the best live playing band in the world.
Seen em 15 times live. Always jaw dropping
YYZ Live in Rio is the best. You need to go back and react to that. I've been a Rush fan since I was 11 (1981) and that video is the best version I've ever seen. It captures so much of what makes Rush fans stay Rush fans and what makes all the new Rush fans that are showing up all over the place. Thanks, you guys are great.
You should have live in Rio this one. This band should actually always be reacted to live.
YYZ was the airport code for Toronto, their home town. When they saw that on there flight itinerary they knew they was as good as home.
Still is.
Apparently the song incorporates the Morris Code (dots & dashes) of YYZ. I personally don't recognise dots and dashes in the song but then I'm rhythmically challenged (and don't know Morris Code).
I can tell Lex loves electric guitar solos....every video she gets a pretty smile on her face when the guitar solo kicks in....I do too!
In the 90's, I had a rock band, we played out one night per week. 1 other night, we swapped out our singer and played with our sax player, and played jazz and blues, instrumentals. Eventually a singer, a black dude, soul singer, phenomenal talent could sing anything, saw us and asked us to be part of his dance/funk/disco/top 40 band, and we in fact did join forces. That eventually morphed in to our busiest work, which also paid the best. 3 white rockers as the rhythm section, and the rest were black dudes, and a black female singer. I know colors aren't important, but I'm trying to set the stage and help you visualize it. It was actually fun. Not as challenging as we wanted, and didn't really fill our appetite, but it was a great time, and we played cruises, clubs, bars, festivals, etc. Anyway, we created a sub section in the middle of of Disco Inferno, where the rest of the band dropped out, and me (percussion), our bass player, and guitar player broke in to a segment of YYZ. We kind of rocked it out a little harder though, as in a heavier metal edge, mostly to really exaggerate the rock sound and make it obvious we broke off into something heavy, but still the exact pieces nonetheless. It was very cool to see certain people in the crowd pick it up, and recognize. They'd start bobbing their heads, metal style, rushing the stage to "whoooooo, yeah man!!!", letting us know they caught the drift, and even the people dancing, of all colors, kept dancing, and always broke out in to a cheer. I could tell that many cheered because they recognized it, and the others because we broke away from the disco song and rocked out to the same tempo. I got a kick out of that and will always love that memory.
This song is an instrumental based upon guitarist Alex Lifeson's frequent dream sequences/nightmares that he has experienced, hence the rapid alteration in tempos - almost without warning - because no-one's dreams are that sequential; also, as a side note, 'YYZ' is the international morse code call sign for Lester Pearson International Airport, Toronto - RUSH's nearest for flights out of/across Canada. When I first heard this track, i thought it was just an extended jam session 😁 Keep safe, you three !!
YY Zed!!! Yes!!! Classic by Rush. Timeless.
🍁🍁🍁
Relating it to game music in Sonic The Hedgehog was interesting. I can definitely hear that connection now. This reaction may have forever changed how I hear the song. 😎
The Sonic The Hedgehog reference is pretty spot on. I feel like a lot of video game composers of the time looked to prog rock for their inspiration at the time, and it shows.
B&L- I’ll confirm for the hundredth time on this thread, “Live from Rio”. Watch 100,000 people jump up and down in unison with the beat and, top it off with them all singing the melody….wild!
Oh hell yes! This song showcases each members’ incredible talent. A masterpiece!
YYZ are the call letters for Toronto airport. Rush was coming back from a tour somewhere, and they were landing in Toronto. Neil heard the pattern for the call letters over the intercom, and thought the pattern was very cool and rhythmic. He went back and wrote this. Pretty cool inspiration.
For 80's Rush.."The Weapon" would be a very cool song to react to..
4 words "YYZ live in Rio"...🧨🎸🥁🎸
Three absolute MASTERS of their respective instruments! Rush was the BEST band ever, full stop.
Rush: Making everybody else look lazy since the 1970s
Your brother is a cool dude. He looks and smiles just like you Brad.
YYZ (YYZeta, yes Canadians say Zeta not Z)
This is the name of the Toronto airport which they named this toon after as it was the sign of coming home from a long tour.
This song had so much in it that it inspired other musicians who were following them at the time of this record's release as they were a musician's band.
Eddie Van Halen openly admitted he was listening to this album when it came out.
In fact, he was so influenced by them he started using Keyboards as well. Just listen at 3:54 and hear the keyboards then go back and play the song from Van Halen's 1984 Album "I'll wait."
Additionally, you can hear some of the beat it chords through this song as well.
I highly recommend the live version from Rio... sad that you didn't experience it first. I also loved how Brad's brother was vibing with the music with you Lex...
She rules this channel with an iron fist 👊
Word !
Now I want Brad's brother to do the reactions with them now !
@@bennytanner1962 yeah, that would be cool.
@@staciojeda4146 Now that Brad's younger brother has started getting into Rock OMG then next Brad will get him into Metal. OMG
I can't wait LMAO
@@bennytanner1962 I don't believe Brad is into Rock or Metal. He seems happier on the blog channel and Lex seems happier vibing to the music. Maybe Brad's younger brother will get him into the music?
Rush music is so complicated, I wouldn't have had fun playing live with them. You've got to be on your toes 100%, you drift and the song is done. LOL
All that from a three man band. Yep, just 3 guys rockin’ out.
Yes, it’s Toronto’s airport code. (Pronounced why why Zed)
Sometimes, it’s hard to believe there’s only 3 people in the band.
This song goes through my head every time I'm driving through Wisconsin and I come to the intersection of county y and county YZ
Brad’s brother knows what’s going on! I’d like to see him again from time to time!
I save this song for my last skiing speed run down the mountain, every single year since 1982.
Rush's precision is unmatched! You'd have to dig deep...
With Rush the best way to appreciate everything they do you have to watch live
2112 please! It is one of the best pieces of music ever written. Its kind of long, but totally worth it.
Side one of 2112! It is THE ultimate Rush experience. Read along with the lyrics - guaranteed to bring tears to Lex's eyes - it's that beautiful. It's about a future where music is banned. It's about oppression and liberation - more relevant now than it was in 1976.
I recommend the 40th anniversary video that came out in 2016; its comic book format can really help you to understand the storyline.
....seeing YYZ played live is
equally thrilling to the studio version.
An ear feast!!!
I'm loving the synchronised head bobbing 😃
YYZ Live(Rio) ... You must watch this video guys !! The crowd is superb , so much energy and great performance.
This song is a masterpiece. That is all. That bass line....
Cool Brad's brother came to visit, looks a lot like him, hope you're all having great time.
Wow, first time i see you're listening to an instrumental... and I was not on or around to witness it! :-/ Rush has a few, "La Villa Strangiato", "Where's My Thing", "Leave That Thing Alone", YYZ being one of the better well known. You should check out them playing this song live in Rio in 2002. Most audiences do jam along but in that Rio gig it's really special.
It starts in 10/8 time: C F# C C , C F# C C , C C F# F# ( in morse code -.--, -.--, --.. is Y,Y,Z )
YYZ (Y Y Zed) is the calling sign for Toronto-Pearson International Airport (in aviation chat) - So, what does that mean? Well for Rush - "It's Home", they're from the Toronto area.
Rush has many instrumentals, and this is one of their best, and certainly one of the most popular. For what is their most musically difficult instrumental, check out their song "La Villa Strangiatto," from their album "Hemishperes." Many top drummers, like former Dream Theater drummer Mike Portnoy, consider this to be a real effort to play properly, and that song forced Rush to give up on always making more and more complex songs as "challenges," and instead, make their songs even more musical, and led to the album "Moving Pictures," which featured "Tom Sawyer." But I still believe that the albums "A Farewell to Kings (77)" and Hemispheres (78)" saw Rush at the top of their "Progressive Rock" form.
"Makes me think of a video game". I hear this so much about music. I think the younger generation is reminded of video games by basically everything they hear.
100 or so years from now, this will be like Beethoven! They are amazing musicians 💜
You can show Rush videos without any fear o copyright strikes; they're cool like that. The video for YYZ live in Rio is one you have to watch for yourselves...the crowd is so into it!
It's A GREAT instrumental piece from a GREAT band.
You finally found the best song of Rush, congratulations! The next one to react could be The Camera Eye.
Just 3 guys, to this day they still blow my mind.
Have to check this out live. It's amazing watching the crowd come alive for this song.
One of my top favorite Rush songs. I was so impressed the first time I heard it.
Saw them on the Moving Pictures and Signals tours! Freaking epic!
An excellent introduction to Rush! Your brother looks just like you, right down to his facial expressions! Very astute observation, lil brother!
THE tightest band instrumentally! Brad, your bro is adorbs!
I'm in tears. I cant say how the professor changed every, hey white boys have no beats
Rush musical geniuses! Words , music and Neil Pert!
I was noticing that all 3 of you had the 1234 time beat in time with your head bobbin , that's awesome
Wonder if Brad was looking for the lyrics to analyze, lol. Great Rush instrumental.
This is my first time hearing this song too. Love your reactions!
im glad this is brads first instrumental ( as far as i know) cant get much better than this one
You have GOT to do YYZ Live in Rio. It usually does not get blocked & you’ve NEVER seen a more amped crowd! 😎
Rush=musical genius. Nuff said. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Rush!
The NO. 1 Canadian band that ever was and ever will be!
That's why Neal Peart is rated one of top 5 drummers of all time.... can hear tools Danny Carey gets his influences from him.
Omg lil bro have insight with the sonic reference hahaha
One of the pieces where the late Chris Squire's influence on Geddy Lee's bass playing is evident.
Li' bro is a star. Needs to be on the show all the time.
If you want to turn some onto rush, start with subdivisions in the car at night with the windows down
One can hear the staccato influence of the earlier Genesis song, "Watcher of the Skies". In that one, Peter Gabriel is an alien exploring an abandoned planet Earth, wondering aloud about the people who built all the wonders that he sees, and then disappeared.
Should have done the live in Rio video, the energies of the crowd just lifts this song so much. Thanks again Rio for being so awesome for Rush.
Probably a tough listen for non-Rush heads. All instrumental, very angular and lots of meter changes.
The musicianship is incredible, and Alex's guitar solo in harmonic minor, which is uncommon in Rush music, is just legendary.
I've never heard this compared to a Sonic the Hedgehog level while you're running through, but I'm ok with that lol! This is my favorite Rush song. Good to see those heads bobbing and welcome lil bro!
Many people believe that "Moving Pictures" was Rush moving away from prog rock into the mainstream... but that's simply wrong. Rush made a decision to write shorter songs, which took their musicianship and creativity into a more 'compact' presentation. "YYZ" is a magnificent prog song, it just didn't need to be 15 minutes long.
This is "the song that was never ment to be a song". Neil (drummer) and Getty (bass) were jamming out one day. Alex (guitar) came in and upon hearing it wanted in on it. He laid down his guitar track over top of what they were doing. It was ment to be a 2 person Jam which is why the give and take solo's in the song are only the bass and drums.
this song is one long lifeson solo
This was an absolute masterpiece! Rush tells a story in everyone of their songs.
*This is pretty much a Jam Session....try these if not done so already; Freewill__Temples of Syrinx__Fly By Night__Red Barchetta__Tom Sawyer.*
Live and in person.....you gotta check out YYZ Live in Rio, not just for a great performance, but an amazing crowd who actually sing the lead guitar parts.
You had to watch this live in Rio! As I mentioned before Rush must be watched live.
the live version of this song in brazil is amazing !
Ahhh you really need to see the live version. , YYZ live in Rio it’s a blast 60 ,000 fans singing to a song with no lyrics 😄
South American fans are always very good live crowds. Buenos Aires has the best crowds in the world I would say.
We're talking about the GOAT when it comes to drummers here! RIP Neil Peart
Another great Canadian band that have some instrumental songs is The Planet Smashers.
My fav instrumental is their song “2 Souvlaki Pita, 1Fry”.
You definitely NEED to see the live version of this, specifically Live in Rio. It will blow your mind!!
You really need to hear the live version from their Exit, Stage Left album…not the video from the tour that’s different…the one from the audio only album…you will hear an incredible solo by Neil Peart!
Wow your running wild to night internet brother love it God bless
Definitely one of those instrumentals you have to watch to enjoy it even though it’s still amazing listening to it
You should check out the Concert Footage of YYZ from RIO.
Jazz prog rock. Great song, band.
Oh, you really must watch the concert video, the crowd is Huge, and they actually sing along with the song!!! No words, an instrumental, but the crowd just couldn't contain themselves, they were singing to it!!! The band is so great to watch in concert, they don't miss a beat. And they love it, they love the crowd.
Definitely need to check out the live version from Brazil....awesome!
Just a cool jam! This is what the character in "Red Barchetta" has playing in his uncle's shining car as he is violating the motor law and fleeing the alloy air-cars
Nah, he's got The Spirit of Radio cranked up! Haven't you seen the TSOR vid? :P
@@RaymondBCrisp no but I will look for it!
