@@yuh2987 Even better than Les Claypool (Primus)? Better than Sting? Better than Paul McCartney? Can Geddy Lee play at the caliber you consider him, if he's with a different band? Don't misunderstand me: Geddy is the reason i listen to Rush for many years. i love his contributions to Rush. But i can't honestly say he "IS" the best bass player, for when you place that label on an individual, a better player comes along. He's still a favortie to listen to, and i hope he continues well into 2020.
@@circuz4167 Yeah, i concur on that one. my point was that to call one person the best without hearing every bassist that ever existed is at best ignorant. Geddy's a real good bass player, but i won't go as far as saying the best -EVER-. Does he write the lyrics as well?
Unfortunately, as much as I love Neil Peart and so does God our creator, Mr. Peart chose to reject his Creator and is NOT RESTING IN PEACE because he will spend all of eternity in hell. Not 2million years; not 10 million years but ALL OF ETERNITY IN HELL. If he could be allowed to warn Alex and Geddy to repent and turn to Jesus I am confident he would because now he knows the truth!
@@canechambis4368 That’s more than a bit presumptuous on your part. Only God is qualified to comment on where Neil’s final destination was and is. You don’t know what may have happened in the days and months leading up to his death that may have turned his thinking around. I am a Christian myself, soI understand what you’re trying to say and do but…none of us can make such a statement without knowing the details of the mindset he was in before passing. A lot can happen to a man when he’s staring down terminal illness I’m sure.
The genius of Alex Lifeson on full display in this video is, as is often the case, overlooked, because the other two guys are so fucking good. What an amazing collection of talents the three of them were.
Rush has been my favorite band for over 45 years. But "Mission" always makes me tear-up for some reason with its beautiful chord progressions and harmonies.
Hundreds of songs and every one of them is so uniquely different and appealing. With Geddy's voice in top form the band reaches ethereal levels of excellence. A band for the ages!
Every member of rush took their turn and played their instruments like a lead guitar solo from a heartfelt meaningful song in most of the music they made. Who would have ever thought that a bass guitar could be played with so much expression and emotion to match the melodic and inconcievable guitar medleys and extraordinary lead riff's that Alex brought to each and every song. And the new guy? Well the cohesive glue that moulded and held it all together along with the writing of all those amazing tracks! Still here and will never be forgotten in the hearts of all of us fans that grew up with and still take deep meaning from all the fantastic music they made for us. Forever grateful that these guy's got it together always. R.I.P Big guy, you are missed deeply through out these tough times we now live through. Big shout out to Gedddy and Alex too! Stay safe and keep well from all of us on this little part of the world called Scotland. We will love and miss you but always carry you deep within our hearts.
Three men... Three AMAZING men and all of that sound. Rush is an incredible band in a class all by themselves. And speaking of a class all by themselves... I still can't believe that Neil is gone. A local DJ said that it almost seems insulting to call him a drummer because he's on such a different level. He definitely went above and beyond and music will not be the same. This is wonderful to watch!
Nothing else to say except……… These 3 Kings are amazing in their own right & when you put them all together you get unparalleled talent from beginning to end. There will never be another RUSH.
You can't have a top 10 bass players list of all time without Geddy Lee in there somewhere. His bass playing crushes everyone. It's not just his bass playing, it's the amount of multi-tasking that he pulls off while playing his bass. It's unbelievable. As for the other guys? Well damn, what else is there to say?
I hate when asked what my favorite Rush song is... there are so damned many! This tops the final 5 though. I still can't accept that Neil is gone... but he lives on here, and more importantly, in our hearts. Thank you so much for sharing your many gifts, you're forever the GOAT (on several levels!)
Neil shows just how masterful he is at minute 3:50 when he goes from such technical drumming to just the snare drum and makes what such simplicity on a snare go into a different mode of the song!
In the eye of the the storm, - I was there, in Berlin - live -excluisive in the first line - in front of the stage! I remember this situation like it is today.
Epic song from a great album. What a treat for me to have seen these guys live so many times. hard to watch NP smashing the drums on video now knowing it will never happen again, just feel so lucky to have experienced it up close. RIP LEGEND NP .
Thankyou for sharing this. I miss their concerts so much. I feel like a part of me went to Heaven with Neil. 😢 I really wish they could play live again with the best drummer possible to honor Neil and ofcourse never fill his shoes but help bring them back live. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏RIP Neil Peart
100th Comment: The majesty, command, and awesome force from 3:48 to 4:23. It’s like this space they are creating is so sparse and open while telling us what we know is coming… their power and command as a unit is inevitable when they come out of these passages. And no other band can come close to these moments. Rest in Power Neil.
I miss seeing Rush in concert so much, hurts to know it's been almost 10 years since the last concert and I'll never see them again :( RIP the professor
When i first heard Rush i said to myself wow thats a big group to make that full and rich of a sound....imagine my suprise when i found out its just three dudes. OMG !!!
I heard that about Natural Science. They had an epic song they were trying to write and it just wasn't happening. They only had a day to finish the album and came up with Natural Science. Unreal...

there is just something about the pleasure you get out of hitting those Sabian N.P. cymbals! Soooooo much character ! hard to explain but it is something you definitely feel when you're playing them versus everything else.
Putaa la banda csm buenaaaaa por la crestaaaaa !!! Hace años que no me gustaba tanto una bandaaaa !!!! Tan bello que es Canadá y más encima da estás magnificiencias de músicos... Notableee !!! Temazo !!!!
Alex didn't often get recognized for his multitasking, he's playing guitars and also keyboard pedals or triggering keyboard effects with his feet. He's a real team player, because I know he really does not enjoy doing that.
Question for the Rush fans (from another Rush fan), where are the keyboard pads and lines coming from? I know that Geddy normally arranges to play both, but on this video he's nowhere near his keyboards. Tracks?
I understand what you're saying but, at 0:20 in the video, you can clearly hear keys and Alex's feet are nowhere near any pedals either, like Geddy. My guess would be that the whole Intro was triggered by Neil. Just trying to figure it out, and I do appreciate your knowledge, feel free to expand on what's going on at 0:20, when we can actually see where the guys are standing, even though the keys do come in a little earlier then 0:20. Thanks!
Probably Midi'd off a sampler... as you see Peart Rim shot his TD20 to start the sequence at :08 I've read Articles where Peart didn't want to move into modern technology but he sorta did whether he knew it or not... Loops, sequencing, Triggering off Octapad...... For a 3 man band they sounded so awesome and part of it had to happen with technology.
At just after the 3:35 mark, you can see the camera pointing at Geddy Lee’s foot while operates some synthesizer pedals, so at least some of the lines are being played live. Though, there may still be lines played from a recording because, unless they have a jackhammer, a laughing girl and a Geddy soundalike who sings “rising, falling at force ten, we twist the world and ride the wind” on hand during the song, they already have a pre-recorded track playing.
That solo from Alex is so fucking unique. If the guitarist from U2 wrote this exact solo, people are so fucking head over heels for that guy and yet…Alex Lifeson is a million times better than the “Edge”

Best trio ever...miss ya guys. But we have a lifetime of music to listen to.
You can tell they enjoy playing this. Hold your fire is an underrated album
"Mission" a song that helped me in my darkest days...
It was a great album.
Some AWESOME material on “HYF”.
This one, Time Stand Still & Turn The Page are my top 3 favorites on “HYF”.
@@debj314 And still is!!
for most bands it would be their classic album. For Rush its 18th
For sure Geedy is one of the best bass player ever
+Yon Law correction... he IS the best bass player
Definitely the best bassist that plays keyboards at the same time (with his feet, no less)!

Rest In Peace Neil...Thanks for the many many memories...
This band was a force of nature and Neil was leading the way. RIP Mr. Peart and thank you for all of the inspiration---you are sorely missed.
Like a force of nature, love shines in many forms.

Candidly, I think Alex got short shrift from a songwriting standpoint on P/G. I suspect the fallout more or less defined the band.
Geddy's vocals are perfect in this song.
I find his voice very annoying, but their music trumps all that.
True Bojan Lee voice is horrible. His Bass SUPER
@@pavelclaudiopatino419 and don't forget he's a great or super keyboardist
@@pavelclaudiopatino419 his voice is the best
Not as good as 1988 "A Show of Hands" but good.
Rush has been my favorite band for over 45 years. But "Mission" always makes me tear-up for some reason with its beautiful chord progressions and harmonies.
Mission is one of their very best. Agreed.
You’re not alone. It makes me emotional as well. As does the song Presto and The Pass
thank you RUSH for the amazing music ...just like this song....we miss you Neil Peart..Thank you for your awesome drumming...RIP

Of all the bassists I've been privileged to hear play, Geddy Lee is the best Rock bassist ever. Flea is number 2.
There is no number two. Geddy takes all.
Omg!! What a serious loss..we were so lucky to have had this..rush fans, kick its ass...
I feel blessed to have seen them twice live.
Three men... Three AMAZING men and all of that sound. Rush is an incredible band in a class all by themselves. And speaking of a class all by themselves... I still can't believe that Neil is gone.

I agree, and understand, but there is nothing wrong with being called a "drummer".
Most underrated band ever
All 3 are masters at what they do
The real question is how is this possible?
Nothing else to say except………
These 3 Kings are amazing in their own right & when you put them all together you get unparalleled talent from beginning to end.
There will never be another RUSH.
I could watch it a zillion times and it does nothing but get better and better!!! I'm so glad I got to see them and live through the RUSH Era...
Lerxts tone is so huge. Way better than the studio version.
Incredible how geddy can play so fast . That is masterly .
and his tone!!! RIP Neil
So grateful to have seen them live….. since 1983❤️❤️👏👏never missed a tour❤️my happy place🥰

I was there that night too.14th Sept.My first ever Rush show.
Neil shows just how masterful he is at minute 3:50 when he goes from such technical drumming to just the snare drum and makes what such simplicity on a snare go into a different mode of the song!
37 shows... miss those guys some much
alex makes playing guitar look like a walk in the park, what a legend!
In the eye of the the storm, - I was there, in Berlin - live -excluisive in the first line - in front of the stage! I remember this situation like it is today.
I love how dedicated these guys are, they didn't even have time to do their laundry before the show so they did it on stage!
Epic song from a great album. What a treat for me to have seen these guys live so many times. hard to watch NP smashing the drums on video now knowing it will never happen again, just feel so lucky to have experienced it up close. RIP LEGEND NP .
In my mind Rush have never written a bad song but this song has to be among my top 5 all time favourites .
This is my favourite version of this song
Cada vez admiro más la genialidad de esta banda
3 GUYS TAKING MUSIC SERIOUSLY !!!!! THIS IS WHAT WE ARE WITNESSING HERE !!!!!

Gives me chills every time I watch or listen to a live version, but especially this one; so sublime. Masterful songwriting and dynamics.
I never knew Dr. Stranglove had such a high pitched singing voice!! 🥸
My master Neil Peart, I miss you and that's the only way to overcome this longing. Rest in peace! Always eternal Neil Peart!
Meaningful song for me. Woke up to this song playing 9/12/2001 after America was attacked the day before. We won’t be scarred like that.
This Band is Geniously!!! LEGEND!!! Love : The fan from year 1980! 👏👏👏🤗🤗🤗
Geddy killing it on bass
RIP Neil Peart Legend ! They only come once in a life time.
I miss seeing Rush in concert so much, hurts to know it's been almost 10 years since the last concert and I'll never see them again :( RIP the professor
NEIL PEART. ONE OF THE GREATEST DRUMMERS THE WORLD WILL EVER SEE & ONE OF THE BEST BANDS(along with YES & KING CRIMSON) THE UNIVERSE WILL EVER KNOW.
Have loved these guys for nearly 40 years and hope Neil is soaring the heavens.
When i first heard Rush i said to myself wow thats a big group to make that full and rich of a sound....imagine my suprise when i found out its just three dudes. OMG !!!
Magnífico Quuw buena Banda. Saludos desde san luis Potosí. México.
Futuristic songs have always set rush ahead of every band out there.
this song......goosebumps....
This music is legend.
The song to listen to when there's a storm!
Thank you. I forgot What a great song this is! (Thanks again!)
I read somewhere that they wrote this song "in ten minutes", as they had space they needed to fill on the album. Anyone else hear that?? :)
I heard that about Natural Science. They had an epic song they were trying to write and it just wasn't happening. They only had a day to finish the album and came up with Natural Science. Unreal...
WOW,the HD of this video is just INCREDIBLE!!! Thanks so much for posting this!!!
My favorit band
Best Band Ever..
Good, very very good.
Clássico do rock mundial
wow perfection!!!
This is rediculous. All 3 are absolutely insane in their musicianship
1st time i heard TIME STAND STILL i was hooked R I P MR PEART
This is just pure fucking awesomeness . Just everything about it.
I only got to see Rush once at Blossom in 2007. Best show I've been to. I'll miss them.
My dad was a big fan and iam he passed away on 9-12 -2016

OMG !!!!! MOVE OVER AXL ROSE !!! RUSH KICKS YOUR ASS IN THE JUNGLE BABY !!!

"Force Ten"
Tough times demand tough talk
Demand tough hearts, demand tough songs
Tough times demand tough talk
Demand tough hearts, demand tough songs
Demand...
We can rise and fall like empires
Flow in and out like the tide
Be vain and smart, humble and dumb
We can hit-and-miss like pride
Just like pride
We can circle around like hurricanes
Dance and dream like lovers
Attack the day like birds of prey
Or scavengers under cover, under cover
Look in... to the eye of the storm
Look out... for the force without form
Look around... at the sight and the sound
Look in, look out, look around...
Tough times demand tough talk
Demand tough hearts, demand tough songs
Demand...
We can move with savage grace
To the rhythms of the night
Cool and remote, like dancing girls
In the heat of the beat and the lights, and the lights
We can wear the rose of romance
An air of joie de vivre
Too tender hearts upon our sleeves
Or skin as thick as thieves
Thick as thieves...
Look in... to the eye of the storm
Look out... for the force without form
Look around... at the sight and the sound
Look in, look out, look around...
Tough times demand tough talk
Demand tough hearts, demand tough songs
Demand...
Look in... to the eye of the storm
Look out... for the force without form
Look around... at the sight and the sound
Look in... look the storm in the eye
Look out... to the sea and the sky
Look around... at the sight and the sound
Look in, look out, look around...
Tough times demand tough hearts
Tough times demand tough talk
What a great ride
We miss you Neal. ❤
Rush and very cool 🤘🤘🤘🤘
I was thinking about his song when I first saw the picts of Hurricane Florence. Hang in there east coast!!!
Fantastic I love it ❤❤❤

Do these guys know they’ve touched multiple generations and healed wounds
Awesome
2020 - Let's celebrate Canada and Rush - the rhythms of the night.
I see three regular dudes playing extraordinary music.
impresionante.
One of the toughest songs for Geddy...had to be. Power fingers😮

Professional musicians. Remember for future reference
GODS
3 men that look hipper and cooler as the trends , decades and genres go by. Who else pulls that off? Prince? James Brown? Usually, it’s the opposite
Watching this I just had an intense wave of sadness that Neil Peart is gone.
Makes Me Dance!
That solo from Alex is so fucking unique. If the guitarist from U2 wrote this exact solo, people are so fucking head over heels for that guy and yet…Alex Lifeson is a million times better than the “Edge”
And ow yeah , we can do that style to !
i'm the 500 like ...Welcome to the show
STARTING AT 3:49 WOW !!!! AND I MEAN WOW !!!!
That would be more appropriately called ‘Force Three’!
