Sun dogs are a rare occasion....it is basically a rainbow that presents itself in a two pieces. This song was written after Neil went out on a boat ride with his daughter. Sadly, she passed on.
Not very often I see these later albums and songs from Rush's 80's era reacted to, so it's really nice to see their better stuff getting some air time. Presto is a criminally overlooked album but one of their best. Alex's guitar work sounds so ethereal and crisp. Complements Geddy's synthesiser work beautifully. Much as I love the old school Rush from the 70's, it's their 80's synth-heavy work that lifts them above everybody else. Still rocking it but it's a very sophisticated sound with top notch production. By far their best stuff.
Chain Lightning may be my favorite from this record. One of Rush's most underrated songs. That chorus flows as well as any Rush song. Flows as smoothly as Dreamline, which I think may be Rush's best song as far as lyrical flow.
Late to the game, here. This song is about an experience Neil had with his first daughter, Selena ("reflected in another source of light"/"reflected in another pair of eyes"), during an evening together rowing out on their lake to watch the sun dogs. Great song.
Having been a Rush fan for 45+ years now and listened to all their albums countless times the 2 things that still stand out are 1) I never tire of listening to them and they still fresh 2) no 2 albums sound the same. There is always progression either musically , lyrically or production wise. I don't believe that the world will see their like again
This is an exceptional album - brought to bear the zenith of skill and electronics that are blended well with acoustics and the raw power, all with next level lyrics.
Neil was a walking dictionary and just a very smart person! I miss him so much and I never personally new him! How many people can you say that about!!!!
Neil liked to use weather phenomena as a metaphor for people, life, etc. Its really taking the idea of how lightning splinters off into smaller arms of energy, and they all look the same, but also totally different patterns. A metaphor for how people are all foundationally the same, but also very different. “Reflected in another pair of eyes” is the key line in this song. We all see and experience the same things but handle it in different ways. Our paths take us in different directions, like chain lightning.
You react great keep playing Rush. To bad you never got to see them live. I got to see there first concert kicking off there presto tour in Detroit it rocked.
I first heard this album a few months after it came out and I was blown away at the beginning of show don't tell, I couldn't wait to go buy the album and I must have played it every day for 2 years
One of my favorite Rush albums, not a bad song on it. Probably my favorite band of all time. I've said it before and I'll say it again, THANK YOU CANADA!
In '89 the big gigantic case was Pete Rose and his gambling on baseball games especially his own team that he managed namely the Cinncinati Reds. Geddy Lee is huge baseball fan.
You see a lot of sun dogs in Canada during the winter when it really cold. Usually -30c A curved band of light on each side of sun. Check out a picture of it. I have seen lots as I live on the Canadian praries. Cheers🇨🇦✌
Great stuff, TB!! Those two songs are BANGERS!! And good on Rush for consistently giving fans that one-two punch, songs 1 and 2, album after album, especially in the 80's. You could always count on them to hit you with a anthemic "keynote" song to open and then a killer follow up to keep the blood pumping! By the way, Geddy Lee OWNS on these two songs from Presto! He has a solo break -- very funky and nasty on SDT -- and then he's got those sick bass "THRUM! "- notes hitting, just before the chorus starts ("Sun Dogs fire..."), that just CRUSHES! I think he was playing the Wal Bass on this album and the playing on this album is insane! TB, you do have to do at least 1 more song on this album which would have to be The Pass. It's...it's an important, emotional song. It's one of Rush's best songs, in terms of song writing and conveying emotion and a message that stays with you. Also, if you can work in one more, I am personally a huge fan of the song "Scars". That song is a sick mix of Rock, Tribal/Electronica/Trance and Alternative Rock. It's possible that the guys were checking out Nine Inch Nails at the time they wrote that song. So, check it out!! Neil Peart is a human Drum Machine on that song!
Apparently Neil wrote Chain Lightning as a reflection on a quiet night out on a Canadian lake with his daughter, while they watched a meteor shower overhead. So Neil, so poignant, so wonderful.
Other great songs on Presto are : The Pass (about suicide), Superconductor, Anagram (For Mongo), Red Tide and Available Light (my favorite on this album).
first an ambient start to the song. Bam! no this is now the funkiest shit you've ever heard, and it's from the same guys who sing metaphorically about personified *trees*. Hold on, we're getting to the bridge of the song and, what the hell? It's now adult contemporary with massive chords, and it still works with the original riff? Hold on, a sizzlin' bass solo? THE BASS IS PLAYING FUNK WHILE THE GUITAR IS PLAYING HUGE AMBIENT CHORDS!! HOW DO YOU PLAY TWO COMPLETELY DIFFERENT GENRES AT THE SAME TIME AND HAVE IT SOUND THAT AMAZING?! WHAT IS THIS BAND?!
I saw the opening night of this tour in Greenville SC at a 7500 seat general admission venue. This is a fantastic album. When I heard the premiere of Show Don't Tell on 96 Rock in Atlanta I didn't hear what they said the name of the song was and based on my first hearing of the song, I thought it was "Show Hotel". :)
Awesome man :) A sun dog or mock sun, formally called a parhelion in meteorology, is an atmospheric optical phenomenon that consists of a bright spot to one or both sides of the Sun.... I highly recommend looking up a picture. Chain Lightning is so beautiful. About two people sharing a special moment. How a moment can be special on its own, but reflected in someone else's eyes, the special moment continues. The Chain Lightning of sharing an experience and feeding off eachothers excitement.... haha exactly like whats going on when people watch reaction videos. Repond, Vibrate, Feedback, Resonate! "Sun dogs fire on the horizon Meteor rain stars across the night This moment may be brief But it can be so bright Reflected in another source of light When the moment dies The spark still flies Reflected in another pair of eyes". It is clear you (like me) love the synth era of Rush. That would be all albums from Grace Under Pressure until Roll The Bones (which is the one right after this). Roll The Bones is the last of that great synth era, but there's tons of great stuff on that and the other albums of that era for you to get to. If you feel like checking out something off of Roll The Bones, I would recommend the title track, Dreamline, or Ghost of a Chance to start with. Enjoying the reactions man! Few ever check out this era of Rush and even fewer like it so this has been awesome.
Neil wrote this as a result of his rowboat trips on Elora Sound with his daughter Selena. They would row out together to watch meteor storms. Sadly Selena died several years later in a car accident at the age of 19. The loss almost killed Neil. He wrote a book about his journey to recover called ”Ghost Rider.”
I remember hearing Neil talk about how he wrote the lyrics for the song. The lyrics are based off a weather report that talked about two things. Sun dogs (small prisms of light) and he said that there’s was going to be a meteor shower. So, Neil went out with his daughter to watch it from the lake. He talks about it in this video: th-cam.com/video/fmq2uClK6eQ/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for reacting to these songs. I have been listening to Rush since 1981 when I was in high school. The Presto album is one of their slicker sounding albums. If you like these songs, you will also like The Pass and War Paint.
Agreed. Rush had only a couple great songs from the '80's and Available Light is one of them. Kind if seems like Rush signalled to us that they knew it would be their last great song.
So I subscribed but sat back for a few tunes, other than to tell you that the four album cycle of the synth era of Rush begins with Signals , then Grace Under Pressure, then Power Windows and culminating on Hold Your Fire. For the record, Rush basically took off in a new direction in four album cycles. They would find a sound, hone it on the second record, develop it on the third record and put forth the full Monty masterpiece on the forth effort. For your consideration. The first era consists of their debut RUSH. Neil comes in on the second effort Fly By Nite and the sound is no less aggressive, but more refined. Album three in the cycle, Caress Of Steel, expands on the sound and refinements and leads them to the end of their cycle with the Masterpiece 2112. The second cycle begins with A Farewell To Kings and culminates with Moving Pictures. Signals begins the next cycle, and Presto starts the next. The next cycle starts with Vapor trails and ends on the highest of notes in a forty plus year career with Clockwork Angels. Generally speaking, through much of Rush’s career, each four album cycle was capped by a live album, capturing the best of the cycle. Enjoy the ride. The journey is long and varied, but captivating every step of the way.
@JHC I appreciate your break down of the RUSH eras. I personally would break it down into 3 record segments. The first record no Neal Peart. Total jam record (many have said Zeppelin esqe). Fly by Night, Caress of Steel and culminating with 2112 Next would be A Farewell to Kings, Hemispheres and finally Permanent Waves Moving Pictures, Signals and Grace Under Pressure. My favorite three record offering. Moving Pictures in my opinon is where the "synth" era starts. I won't cover the whole lineage. The live record after every 4 records isn't exactly accurate as they started putting out a live record practically after every tour starting with the Grace Under Pressure tour (although they didn't release GUP Live until later down the road). Anyway I think we both have the same mindset that RUSH did have distinct eras. Cheers 👍🎸🍻🎶
Known as the “Synth Era” but IMO could be called the Lyric Era. The Professor always wrote beautifully and the words of these albums were especially poignant and for me almost personal.
I wouldn’t call Presto the synth era really. I think they started transitioning in hold your fire and found a good balance with Presto. I think of it more as a transition album. One of my favorites for the overall ambience. And yes great lyrics.
@@mpkelley20 Yeah, I agree. There’s not as much synth/keyboards here as there were on past albums. This was when they were transitioning back to more guitar driven arrangements.
Show don't tell is an underappreciated song and Chain lightning is a solid track, but The Pass is by far the best track on Presto. Also the song Scars has some spectacular drumming. 🎶🎸🥁🎸🎶🔥🙂
You can twist perceptions, reality wont budge! Eeeeye the juryyyyy! Kick ass tune man. Glad it's finally highlighted in a reaction Another reaction I can't wait for is The Body Electric from Grace under Pressure
You HAVE to do Anagram For Mongo...and see if you can catch what Neil did. Brilliant with the wordplay. Neil Peart at his best. He pulled off something no one EVER has in songwriting.
The "Presto" album happened in a low moment of my life, and therefore left less of a trace for me than its predecessors. Also, being a vinyl LP with a huge amount of music on it, the sound quality suffered, but this re-edition sounds GOOD. Thanks for bringing this back to me.
A lot of critics rip this album. Yeah, I've not much respect for critics. This entire album is fucking amazing. There's not one bad song on it. Easily in my top 5 Rush albums.
the guitar solo of chain lightning was actually recorded then the audio was reversed for the record. i haven't gotten around to reversing it back to hear what it sounded like originally
@@tonebonetelevision disclaimer... that guitar solo is 100% Alex with awesome whammy bar technique, it's not recorded backwards. You wouldn't hear the pick notes normal like that. It is very "Are you Experienced" by Hendrix wich had both forward and backwards guitar and drums and bass. Great tune by the way. I do understand why anyone would think that. That is straight up Alex being avant gard Jazz/Fusion over a simple groove and Neil Peart's off beat high tom tom hits and typical Neil Peart fill on Tom's and hi hat...
Have you heard *The Warning* ? They are 3 sisters from Mexico, now 20, 18, and 15 years old. Their cover of Metallica’s Enter Sandman went viral in 2014 (21+ million views). They have an EP and 2 indie albums out and just signed a 5-record deal with Lava/Republic. This is Sinister Smiles, from their Queen of the Murder Scene concept album, a girl’s descent into murder and madness: th-cam.com/video/Lh2eY0pe9X0/w-d-xo.html
I just wish the production of this album was stronger. Its really lacking bottom end and weight to it. Great songs and a nice darker change for them from their mid-80s kinda soaring positive happy melodies in every song but crappy production.
Hi! Please make Your 1-st time reacting to the Russian Official M/V - "Leningrad - i_$uss" (over 25 million views on TH-cam) This video has a lot of allusions, gags and hints. Be sure to click on the English translation subtitles. Thank you in advance! Good luck!
Carl Gibbons, when you step away from the MSM, you can find the truth. If your not following along the Dominion voting machines have been rigging elections for years. Venezuela’s communist regime has been running it for years. It’s cost Bernie Sanders against Hillary for 2016. And is very evident here in 2020. Dig into these issues, don’t let them feed you this garbage. Socialism is at the door, you don’t want to let it in.
My firs Rush concert was this tour. amazing. The first of many,
Always wished Rush did Chain Lightning & Available Light live on stage. Great tracks! Majorly underrated!
Sun dogs are a rare occasion....it is basically a rainbow that presents itself in a two pieces. This song was written after Neil went out on a boat ride with his daughter. Sadly, she passed on.
Not very often I see these later albums and songs from Rush's 80's era reacted to, so it's really nice to see their better stuff getting some air time.

Much as I love the old school Rush from the 70's, it's their 80's synth-heavy work that lifts them above everybody else. Still rocking it but it's a very sophisticated sound with top notch production. By far their best stuff.
I noticed that too. I heard a lot of their older stuff but was so glad I am tapping out their 80's vibe. ❤️
My favorite Rush album.
Chain Lightning may be my favorite from this record. One of Rush's most underrated songs. That chorus flows as well as any Rush song. Flows as smoothly as Dreamline, which I think may be Rush's best song as far as lyrical flow.

2) no 2 albums sound the same. There is always progression either musically , lyrically or production wise.
I don't believe that the world will see their like again
A Sun Dog is alike rainbow, but only shows at two points. This song was written when Neil and hi s daughter when out on a boat together.
This is an exceptional album - brought to bear the zenith of skill and electronics that are blended well with acoustics and the raw power, all with next level lyrics.
The opening notes of "Show Don't Tell" did indeed sound like rapid fire gunshots, much as you predicted at the very beginning of the track.
Neil was a walking dictionary and just a very smart person! I miss him so much and I never personally new him! How many people can you say that about!!!!
Neil liked to use weather phenomena as a metaphor for people, life, etc. Its really taking the idea of how lightning splinters off into smaller arms of energy, and they all look the same, but also totally different patterns.

We all see and experience the same things but handle it in different ways. Our paths take us in different directions, like chain lightning.
"This moment may be brief, but it can be so bright!" What a great lyric. I LOVE Chain Lightning. It's fun musically, but deep lyrically.
THAT GURGLY, GRINDY, SCHLURPY, PRECISE BASS IS ASTONISHING!
You react great keep playing Rush. To bad you never got to see them live. I got to see there first concert kicking off there presto tour in Detroit it rocked.
That snare is sick,!!!
I remember buying this album back in 89 and loving it. It was in my opinion better than the previous album Hod your Fire. Quite a few good songs here.
I first heard this album a few months after it came out and I was blown away at the beginning of show don't tell, I couldn't wait to go buy the album and I must have played it every day for 2 years
One of my favorite Rush albums, not a bad song on it. Probably my favorite band of all time. I've said it before and I'll say it again, THANK YOU CANADA!

oh yes. More rush from the albums I have reacted to so far. ❤️
Show me don't tell me is a poetic refutation of Christian apologetics particularly as it relates to so called creation science.
My interpretation is that the lyrics are actually about a relationship as so many times in Rush's case.
Apparently Neil wrote Chain Lightning as a reflection on a quiet night out on a Canadian lake with his daughter, while they watched a meteor shower overhead. So Neil, so poignant, so wonderful.
Yup. I hear show don’t tell and kind of have to listen to the entire album. Total relaxation.
“Are they in court?”
😂😂😂😂😂
Finger Funk! LOL 🤣 I love it! That's the best way to describe it!!! Speaking of courtrooms Neil brings up courtrooms again in test for Echo
It's good to see you found your way back home and RUSH NATION welcomes you back with open arms...
Enjoying your journey brother!
Awesome journey it is. ❤️
Other great songs on Presto are : The Pass (about suicide), Superconductor, Anagram (For Mongo), Red Tide and Available Light (my favorite on this album).
I personally like The Pass better, but Available light is a very good one. Probably my favorite 2 songs from this album.
I agree 👍
Love The Pass!
Anagram (For Mongo), Red Tide, Presto, and of course....War Paint. Oh, and The Pass actually saved my life.
All are great, but being an OLD Rush fan "Anagram (For Mongo)" of all songs shocked me in a great way! (Signing off, a fan since 1981 born in 1973)
Really enjoyed your reaction and getting into Rush songs that I haven't listened to in a long time. Such brilliance. So cohesive. Thanks!🇨🇦❤👍
My pleasure and Thank Rush!!!!!

I believe this was around the time Alex was getting his pilot's license.

Geddy on his Wal. Love the sound of that instrument.
The Wal had the perfect song for this record.

❤️ thank you my Rush Friend!
"Witness take the stand." is the best vocal line to introduce a lead section ever.
Amazing album, very underrated. Chain lightning is one of my favorites with beautiful lyrics. Great video btw!
agreed. and appreciate your feedback!
I like Available Light from this album
I am sure I will be getting to this song. Thanks for your support! Cheers
My favorite from the album. It’s so good.
Agreed. Rush had only a couple great songs from the '80's and Available Light is one of them. Kind if seems like Rush signalled to us that they knew it would be their last great song.
Some great songs on Roll The Bones, the next album.
Not only is the lyrics great but the instrumentals in their songs just awesome.
agreed. It was like a band solo!
man, i love Chain Lightining! one of my favourites from the very first listen!

Enjoy the ride. The journey is long and varied, but captivating every step of the way.
JH Cavuoto thanks for the outline. It will help most definitely
@JHC I appreciate your break down of the RUSH eras. I personally would break it down into 3 record segments. The first record no Neal Peart. Total jam record (many have said Zeppelin esqe).
Fly by Night, Caress of Steel and culminating with 2112
Next would be A Farewell to Kings, Hemispheres and finally Permanent Waves
Moving Pictures, Signals and Grace Under Pressure. My favorite three record offering. Moving Pictures in my opinon is where the "synth" era starts.
I won't cover the whole lineage. The live record after every 4 records isn't exactly accurate as they started putting out a live record practically after every tour starting with the Grace Under Pressure tour (although they didn't release GUP Live until later down the road).

I love the Show Don’t Tell just punches you in the face right off the bat.

I definitely recommend war paint, the pass or available light from Rush presto album. You won’t be disappointed
Show don't tell is an underappreciated song and Chain lightning is a solid track, but The Pass is by far the best track on Presto. Also the song Scars has some spectacular drumming. 🎶🎸🥁🎸🎶🔥🙂
You can twist perceptions, reality wont budge!
Eeeeye the juryyyyy!
Kick ass tune man. Glad it's finally highlighted in a reaction
Another reaction I can't wait for is The Body Electric from Grace under Pressure
A lot of 80's Rush to get to!!!!!
The Body Electric - one of my favourite Rush songs. Nobody reacts to it - maybe we should keep it secret?
"ahh, song's too short"
the song right after you say that: "let's try to keep it short"
Ged really starts to sing with a different attitude he is awesome!!!
You HAVE to do Anagram For Mongo...and see if you can catch what Neil did. Brilliant with the wordplay. Neil Peart at his best. He pulled off something no one EVER has in songwriting.
Such a creative band.
That’s nice.......you’re damn right.
The "Presto" album happened in a low moment of my life, and therefore left less of a trace for me than its predecessors. Also, being a vinyl LP with a huge amount of music on it, the sound quality suffered, but this re-edition sounds GOOD. Thanks for bringing this back to me.
Thanks for watching BB. 🤟❤️🤟
Good reactions keep burrowing down the Rush hole, you have hardly scratched the surface!
will do. thanks CB!
Just coming off Hold Your Fire, this is a very different sound, and a great one at that! PRESTO is a great album! 😎👍
reverse chorus is what Geddy called them lol
A lot of critics rip this album. Yeah, I've not much respect for critics. This entire album is fucking amazing. There's not one bad song on it. Easily in my top 5 Rush albums.

I very much enjoy your commentary, not only Rush is smooth here, chill.
At 9:54 "Hope (Hicks) is epidemic"
The "message"" of Show don't tell is epistemological.
Do Available Light from the same album. Outstanding.
I am sure will get to that one. Its very hard not to keep on going through every song. Trust me!
Its Show Don't Tell not "Shoe" Don't Tell ! ;-) Great reaction !
Hahaha. Just saw that. whoops
Underrated as usual.This on par with Moving Pictures.
In fact.. Better.
Superconductor is the song you need to try next. Best song on the album if you ask me.
Nice collection of guitars. Guitars are like lays potato chips aren’t they haha.
I have a problem. ❤️🤟❤️
ToneBone Reactions I have a drum problem as well as a guitar problem haha
@@k-popplayinklown5473 haha ❤️
🔥My reaction to "losing it" by Rush was blocked but is posted on my Instagram here --- @tonebonetunes
While your on this album, you got to do Available Light. Underated song.
Show Me Don’t Tell me concerns opinion and how people force them on you. A very relive that song these days
Awesome ending
Its Rush baby
Hell yes!!!!
This album had an additional keyboard player
What is SHOE don't tell??
That is my dyslexia ❤️

I stand corrected . ❤️🤟
But on this entire album, the lows were not adequate!
I just wish the production of this album was stronger. Its really lacking bottom end and weight to it. Great songs and a nice darker change for them from their mid-80s kinda soaring positive happy melodies in every song but crappy production.

You're gonna get sued for showing the NFL in your broadcast.
At least it wasn't a Trump cult rally. LMAO!
Haha. Brady got his ass kicked in that one!
Carl Gibbons, Show Don’t Tell is fitting for what Trump team is going to do to right this election.
@@waynethera2712 What is team Trump going to do? Show NOTHING and Tell LIES like they have been doing for 4 years? LMAO!
Carl Gibbons, when you step away from the MSM, you can find the truth. If your not following along the Dominion voting machines have been rigging elections for years. Venezuela’s communist regime has been running it for years. It’s cost Bernie Sanders against Hillary for 2016. And is very evident here in 2020. Dig into these issues, don’t let them feed you this garbage. Socialism is at the door, you don’t want to let it in.
"I, the Jury" is a book by Ayn Rand. I haven't read it. Let's be blunt: I shan't ever read it...
