@@McDerpify Yeah it's kind of like this fantastic song. It would probably be better known if there weren't so many other songs on the album that are even better.
Moving Pictures, Signals, Grace Under Pressure, Power Windows tours. Great experiences. I also enjoyed the immense sound of Clockwork Angels with the addition of the live performance of a strings section. The late '70's through mid-'80's was a great time to enjoy RUSH live shows.
NEAL PERART THE GREATEST LYRICIST OF ALL TIME AND ALEX LIFESON THE GREATEST CHORD GUITARRIST OF ALL TIME. YOU GUYS ARE IN MY HEART FOR EVER. I LOVE YOU!
Rush live at Maple Leaf Gardens 1984 sounds so Incredible. Geddy's vocals are so strong here and are the best I have ever heard him sing so confidently: the harmony and passion are heart felt, you can tell the band was totally into this show. It's got to be some of their best live work on video,
Of COURSE he does. He almost sounds like a legitimate singer here. Sure there were synths in this period but who cares? They used them well. GUP was the quintessential Rush album for me, always has been (I know this song is from MP - but it could have been on GUP quite easily). The lyrics were better, no more Ayn Rand crap, geddy's bass lines are just ridiculous in the 80s.
@@frankgross135 They were also at their adult peak during the mid-80s (31-33) from ‘84-‘86 - not surprisingly they performed incredibly during this tour through the PWs album and tour. It happens to every male, every profession. Degeneration begins at 26 so physically men are slightly down from their physical peak by 32 but are far superior cognitively ...so it’s the aggregate of having the highest cognitive/physical cohesion that causes men to peak at this age. The music they pumped out from ‘80 to ‘96 is just crazy good. They were simply neophyte’s in the business in the 70s and even better musicians in the 00’s - but were noticeably tired, lost range in voice, and lyrically a bit lost (like Hemingway in Losing it)! But hey, that’s life. Thank god they happened to meet, become friends, and create timeless music and memories for eternity! The greatest band in the galaxy!!!
Your right he sounds great here but I remember Presto,RTB,Counterparts tours where he sounded quite amazing even when he played T4E song live and listen to T4E song on Different stages live album right at the end he does that sick high pitch wail “ECHO!!!” But yeah the 80s were just sone amazing singing for him
My all time favorite Rush song...I really don't know what it is about it, considering they have so many amazing songs. This one just does it though for me. So great, wow.
+ Cygnus X-1 It may have a touch of The Police or perhaps an influence but it's ALL RUSH. Wouldn't use the word mimic at all. And if anything is remotely close, it's just the guitar. Neil only channels Copeland (who's great IMO BTW) on Digital Man as does Lifeson with Summers. Geddy and Sting...light years apart on bass playing styles.
@@bomb8406 it's become like one big song, hard to stop playing once any song off this album comes on. Especially now that Neil is no longer with us : ' (
I was lucky enough to see Rush during Moving Pictures, Signals, Grace and many more after that. Counterparts was great too. I remember Signals concert at Nassau Col on Long Island. I was in 300's, the girl I was with dragged me out of my seat and we headed down to floor. She sweet talked the guy, we made our way to about Row 15 center. One of best shows ever. The ride home was crazy-- don't know how I made it home on the Northern State PKY for you Long Islanders--- and I had to go out east far.
I just fkn love Rush like holy cow man! This is the only band which had made me drop few tears 'cuz the sound is so incredible! And Neil's lyrics are usually so spot on!
THE CLOTHING SACK OF LIFESON IS THE WAVE INFLUENCE IN RUSH. HE LOOKS AWESOME IN THAT CLOTHING SACK. THAT'S SO 80ISH. EVERYTHING WAS ARTISTICALLY DESIGNED ACCORDING TO THE SENTIMENTS, FANSHIP AND PERSONALY STYLE OF EVERY PERSON. THAT'S ART! THAT'S LOVE!
One of the best Rush performances ever.Spot on in every way. Eternally Great!!! Nothing by anyone else touches this performance and they pull it off like they’re clearing their throats. Amazing
All three are outstanding musicians that knew when to quit much respect guys enjoy your lives carrying on without Neil would have been welcomed but in a way disrespectful as you just can't replace him.
From here and throughout the 80s, Geddy became a really great singer, culminating with Presto in 89. His singing on songs like Available Light, Presto, Show Don´t Tell, as well as some of the live tracks from A Show of Hands, like Subdivisions and Marathon, is just sublime.
Wish I had a time machine. Among other things I would go back and tour with Rush for the next 50yrs. I find it hard nowadays to go to a concert. Not many groups I like and definitely will never compare to Rush. Don't know what you got till it's gone!
One of the songs that really hooked me on Rush when I heard Moving Pictures, then I went back and caught up on earlier albums. Haven't missed one since!
The best progressive rock band in history of rock ‘n’ roll rush will always be my favorite band because I played Getty Lee not just playing bass but seeing his stuff and I get sound like him and it was fun did a lot of backyard parties and people loved it did I get to meet Getty in 2019 for his book signing cool dude
Don't even get me started on Neil's stick twirling and tossing. Right here: 1:47 the camera missed a bit of it, but he flipped a drumstick up, caught it and went right back to doing his thing. There's a reason we call Neil Peart one of the greatest drummers of all time.
This is the same concert I saw at ( University of Dayton Flyers ) in 1984 . ( Grace under pressure tour) I've been a fan since 1980 and was never disappointed by any one of their concerts, for they are true artists
I have this video tape and I think this is one of Geddy’s best vocal performances ever recorded. Oh, and the vocal performance of Red Sector A at this same concert is also one of his best, based on what we have recorded.
Simplemente maravillosa, perfecta en todas sus partes. Yo creo que si hubiera estado presente me da un infarto después de llorar durante media canción.
I'll do a cover of it eventually, I mean it isn't terrible to play but you gotta stay real focused. Next to impossible to sing and play at the same time though.
When they sequenced this album, and I understand why they put Tom Sawyer first, but I would ha e reversed that and put Vital Signs as track one, this is actually my favorite song on the record, I would have ended it with Tom Sawyer. I wish they had drum cams at this time to watch Neil, this was the power of those three guys on stage magnificent.. SIP Neil 😔😔👏🏾👏🏾❤️❤️
One of my favorite RUSH songs. Feel its probable their most underrated songs. Probably underrated because it came from their best album where Tom Sawyer and Limelight were heavily played and the others not so much. I believe it was their pinnacle albums. After this I liked Power Windows and after that it went down hill. I LOVE Rush. But the older stuff. I am like that for a lot of artists. I like the music I grew up with and when music was music and not RAP CRAP or the style seems not real rock. As Bob Seger would say "old time rock and roll"
I agree, things did go down after Power Windows, and they tried to recover some of their previous greatness on Presto, but didn't quite hit the mark. Their in-between album, Hold Your Fire, had its moments with songs like Time Stand Still, though. I think what happened was they got into a comfortable groove of touring and recording the odd album, and with young families of their own, and needing to attend to family responsibilities they may not have had the time or energy to innovate like they did in their early years. I'd say they reached their nadir with the arrival of the OK-but-not-great Test for Echo. I know there are people who are huge fans of their later albums like Vapor Trails, Snakes & Ladders, etc., but for me, none of these albums had the spark and pull of 2112, A Farewell to Kings, Permanent Waves, Moving Pictures and Grace Under Pressure. I think Rush never really recovered after Neil went on hiatus in the wake of the deaths of his daughter and wife. For whatever reason, they were unable to pick up from where they left off and regain their momentum.
This is so weird, I saw this thumbnail and thought someone re-uploaded my remaster because of the mirror effect on the sides but this was uploaded years before me, yet we both applied the same obscure video effect lol - Also this sounds like the pre-2006 DVD release audio
Rush certainly has its prog credentials in order, but to me they excelled at these five-minute melodic adventures. It’s still ‘progressive’ in spirit but very tightly arranged
Growing up in the 80's wouldn't Had been the same without RUSH, thanks Alex, geddy, and Neil, best band ever
Alex Lifeson has got to be the most underrated guitarists ever. hes amazing .
I think this truth is coming to light more and more. Truly he is underappreciated and underrated overall.
Only by people who've never listened to him or watched him perform magic.
It says something when you're probably a top 10-15 guitarist all time but you get completely overshadowed by how good the other members are
@@McDerpify Yeah it's kind of like this fantastic song. It would probably be better known if there weren't so many other songs on the album that are even better.
I wouldn't call him underrated, almost every guitarist knows of him..
1984…life was so much better….wish we could go back….
Vital Signs might be Rush's greatest song
My first Rush show. Started a 40 year journey…
To live without experiencing the genius of Rush would be tragic...
used to listen to moving pictures when I was falling asleep in bed when I was 13. so this song would get burned into my subconscious.
Now I used to do the same thing with The Cranberries first record. I couldn't imagine dozing off to this. Too much adrenaline lol
NetBoySteve TOTALLY!
Similar here, but I was 15 and it was Exit: Stage Left for me. Dreaming about my uncle's country place, rumbling thunderheads and dining on honeydew.
😂😂 me toooooo
Same here I was 17
It saddens me to the core that I never got to see them live 😑 what a fuckin band! 3 man masterminds 🔥⚡🤘
3 Monster Musicians . Extremely talented and humble Canadians 🇨🇦🇨🇦🤣🤣🤣
I wish i was born earlier so i could go to these concerts :(
Me too man....Me too
Paul Murphy Cleveland was the best for concerts in the 70-80's. Blossom, Coloseum,Stadium!
Yes, you really do-thankfully, I saw them on this tour
This one is for you.
From the final concert on Canadian soil.

Regardless of the variety of ott hairstyles this has to be the most talented musical trio to ever grace this planet. Effortlessly cool 😎

Ted Hughes I agree this show is high intensity. Age wise they were at their prime and energy level to match.
They were and always on fire!
Best 3 man rock band ever, hands down...
Great performance of one of my favorite Rush songs. I know hardcore fans look to 76-78 but my opinion is Geddy sounds best been 80-86
Of COURSE he does. He almost sounds like a legitimate singer here. Sure there were synths in this period but who cares? They used them well.

GuaranteedEtern, I agree...but I'd say his voice stayed good until RTB album (1991).
You're right. This is where his voice was the best. Early eighties.

One of the greatest vocal performances ever 👍👍👍👍
This song resonates with me like “All things must pass” by George Harrison. Something sublime. Powerful
I'm surprised at low view count. that performance was on point.
Exactly what I thought, but hey 0 thumbs down.
The reason why the views are so low is that there was another vid of this that had about 200k that got taken down, like many other GUP tour vids.
Sara Lehane 1 thumbs down now, but I hafta write it off as one hit accidentally and or carelessly!!
:)Well someone had to. Good confession though:)
It's Geddy's hair. lol
My all time favorite Rush song...I really don't know what it is about it, considering they have so many amazing songs. This one just does it though for me. So great, wow.
I like the songs where they mimicked the police's sound. Its really cool
Oh yea for sure! Im def with ya there, just amazing.
+ Cygnus X-1 It may have a touch of The Police or perhaps an influence but it's ALL RUSH. Wouldn't use the word mimic at all. And if anything is remotely close, it's just the guitar.

pfriz EXACTLY, the word mimic is condescending... It IS ALL RUSH!!!!!
My favorite Rush song is whatever one I'm listening to at the time.
Unless it's Dog Years.
Wow what is wrong with people? Only 5,602 views after almost 2 whole years.
This is one of my 7 favorite songs off the Moving Pictures album.
there are only 7 songs off the moving pictures album
I think that's the point :p
Bomb8406 well I guess he loves them all because there are only seven
As do I, as do many people, t'is a good album.
@@bomb8406 it's become like one big song, hard to stop playing once any song off this album comes on. Especially now that Neil is no longer with us : ' (

Rush esta a nivel de los inmortales de la música de todos los tiempos.
THE CLOTHING SACK OF LIFESON IS THE WAVE INFLUENCE IN RUSH. HE LOOKS AWESOME IN THAT CLOTHING SACK. THAT'S SO 80ISH. EVERYTHING WAS ARTISTICALLY DESIGNED ACCORDING TO THE SENTIMENTS, FANSHIP AND PERSONALY STYLE OF EVERY PERSON. THAT'S ART! THAT'S LOVE!
It can´t get more 80s than this. I think.
Lol sure it can. Listen to Signals.
Have you ever seen the ‘time stand still’ video? 😂
PLEASE LORD FORGIVE RUSH FOR BEING THE BAND WHO SOMETIMES COLDLY AND ALSO PASSIONATLEY SAYS THE TRUTH ABOUT LIFE.
I love how he kept the "evalate" in there!
ANAGRAM for MONGO
“Revelate.”
one of my favorite rush's songs EVER!
One of the best Rush performances ever.Spot on in every way. Eternally Great!!! Nothing by anyone else touches this performance and they pull it off like they’re clearing their throats. Amazing
All three are outstanding musicians that knew when to quit much respect guys enjoy your lives carrying on without Neil would have been welcomed but in a way disrespectful as you just can't replace him.
This is the best live version of this song it’s just fucking tight!!!
Best live era rush ever
Inacreditável como ele consegue tocar o baixo dessa maneira e cantar , coisa de gênio 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Just finished Geddys book…great read 🤘🎸
Great song off of the Moving Pictures album ! Good stuff right there my son ! Remember…. Everybody needs reverse polarity !

Such a tight and concise song by the Greatest Progressive group ever ! "Do you know what I am saying" ? Thank you RUSH !!!!!

back when they played the songs with vigor and correct tempos and a powerful vocal. ah..... time .
can't blame them for getting old. We all do it.
Back when we were STOKED to be able to see them (a)LIVE
@@IAm2PercentAllDay tacky.
Correct tempo? Rush??? hmmmm wait.....I was under the impression that Rush wrote this....Wth!
Side 2 of Moving Pictures. Don't sleep on it.
Everybodys got to elevate from the NORM!
Listen to the individual parts, this tune is nuts..
2:39 the connection between the two
One of the songs that really hooked me on Rush when I heard Moving Pictures, then I went back and caught up on earlier albums. Haven't missed one since!
Trying to get thru this without crying...….
Yes...This tune applies more now than ever..RIP NP 🦅
Rush fan solidarity is a beautiful thing
Why? Tears for the god who is gone is appropriate. Heavy song...
Some of Peart's most amazing drumming 💪❤️🎵
The best progressive rock band in history of rock ‘n’ roll rush will always be my favorite band because I played Getty Lee not just playing bass but seeing his stuff and I get sound like him and it was fun did a lot of backyard parties and people loved it did I get to meet Getty in 2019 for his book signing cool dude

To me this was the period when they were really at their top in terms of sound, presence, and performance.
How can you not like RUSH?
Still one of the best shows I've ever seen. Thanks Montreal .
That was my first of 24 shows too!
The concert footage documented in Grace Under Pressure Tour was filmed on September 21, 1984 at Maple Leaf Gardens, in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
@@dvdfrnzwbr Well , I wasn't trying to say this was actually Montreal lol :)
This is the same concert I saw at ( University of Dayton Flyers ) in 1984 . ( Grace under pressure tour) I've been a fan since 1980 and was never disappointed by any one of their concerts, for they are true artists
Rock on 84 Lol.😎
I THINK GEDDY IS MY RELATIVE. HE IS THE ONE I LOVE THE MOST FROM RUSH. THE GREATEST SINGLE MUSICIAN OF ALL TIME. PERIOD.
I have this video tape and I think this is one of Geddy’s best vocal performances ever recorded.
Oh, and the vocal performance of Red Sector A at this same concert is also one of his best, based on what we have recorded.
FUCKING AWESOME!!! 1,000,000,000 thumbs up to this guy!!!
Amazing performance! Only Rush can do that!
Best version live IMHO...blah blah blah..right here they were on 🔥
Saw this concert, 1984 at McNichol's stadium in Denver. Woot, so freaking good, the height of their super powers.
Simplemente maravillosa, perfecta en todas sus partes. Yo creo que si hubiera estado presente me da un infarto después de llorar durante media canción.
Felicidades! Se tenia que decir así. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
1000000 de like a tu comentario. 👍
I'm a bassist.
This is a VERY difficult song to sing and play correctly.
pffft.... there isn't a guitar solo.

THE BAND OF ALL DEEEBS. I AM ONE OF THEM. THOSE WHO SAY THEY AREN'T ARE LYING. WE ALL HAVE BEEN SOMETHING IN OUR LIFETIMES.
As we said in 1984, this shreds!
Awsome!! 😊😮 Sure miss these 3 best.
That intricate bassline while singing is fantastic
I was just thinking that too. Amazing.
Saw them once in concert wish I saw them 100 times
For those of you who have seen this band live in their prime, I envy you.
Over 20 times nothing really compares overall performance, sound, lighting, video.
That one person that disliked has no taste
They are just so freaking amazing - I love to listen to this version of the song

This song has a slight Devo vibe to it to me. Just another B side amazing song from the gods.
I always thought of the Police
The coolest drum line in history
P/G My first Rush show. Phx AZ
Why isent anyone talking about the stick throw and catch at 1:44

not the signals tour but fantastic

Oh Geddy... a Steinberger bass? Where are the sweatband around your head and the leg warmers?
I hear ya but even Geddy still rocks that bad boy
