The No One At the Bridge section is one of the best pieces of music in their entire collection imo…the guitar solo is haunting and Geddy’s vocals are amazing
This is the song that made me a lifelong fan. I first heard it in 1975 & I was hooked. Caress Of Steel is their 3rd studio album and the first album that I bought as a 16 year old. I am now 66 & I still get goosebumps when I hear this song……..over 40 years later. Awesome choice. You should also listen to The Necromancer from the same album.
Niels drum Solo he's retained that level of speed all the way to the very last drum solo R.I.P. Neil. the first image of rush was this lp cover in the seventies didn't hear it until 1977 or 1978 great insights u have for a young person, glad you allow your mind for expansion that rush can give even back at the beginning's great reaction
This is some heavy shit right here. No wonder it didn’t go over too well when it was released. Not to mention these guys only in their early to mid twenties writing and playing like this.🤯🤘🖖✌️🎸🥁🎤🎸🎹
I hope you are doing the last sections, Panacea, Bacchus Plateau, and The Fountain. The whole piece is a kind of template of a complete life cycle, from birth to death.(Neil wasn't going to tackle somethng easy, lol!!) There is an end goal, a thing to aspire to, but for many of us, it is elusive. It is ironic that we can spend our whole lives trying to understand ourselves and tbe world around us, and just when the answer is withn our grasp, it is time to check out, lol!! This had an impact on me as a young teen, with my whole life in front of me, now most of it is behind and I find myself at Bacchus Plateau, with no regrets, still hoping I can do something meaningful before the end, which is coming fast. If I go out before any "meaning' can be grasped, so be it. At this stage of life one becomes impartial to winning or losing, it just doesn't matter anymore, one just jogs the last few miles and then hope youve still got a few marbles left at the end!!
A didact is a teacher and narpets is, of course, an anagram of the word “parents”. The words in this section represent (IMO) those authority figures (first part of each pair of terms) providing instruction. The second part of each pair of terms is the rebellious teen’s response. Again, this is my interpretation of this section.
@@leehammel691 I always took it as the kids being the addicts, Alex particularly if you have seen the videos of him describing how much he wanted to play the guitar to the exclusion of anything else and arguing with his parents about it. Maybe that is just me though.

Rush is da drug!

Just do what you do. We'll be here. Love the deep cuts.
I member when i got my “authentic” cassette of this from a flea market stall that specialized in “completely legitimate” cassette tapes. Wonderful.
Nice review!!! Thank you!!!! Love your reviews....
Yes Dame more Rush. 👏 This song is so good 👍
I hope you are doing the last sections, Panacea, Bacchus Plateau, and The Fountain.

I still find it incredible that Neil was only 22-23 when he wrote these lyrics.
My fav from them since the late 70s Old school for me any day
I actually like The Fountain of Lamneth more than 2112 after listening to both for many years.
Wait. Noone mentioned the fact you only did half rhe song? It's over 18 minutes. You only did half
I noticed.
Gabriel Henrique já está com clipe novo...
Why didn't you finish the song? Part 4 5 and 6 are great too
Yes, thatcwas only part of the song.
Dame you should check out Dax remix of Eminem Houdini.
Where’s the rest of the song?
@@motodork there is part 2 I have to react to
Didacts and Narpets or Addicts and Parents 😁

Didacts and narpets is
addicts and parents.
Actually it's teachers and parents
@@scott4482 they're anagrams.
You did not complete this song :)
Best band ever.
Dame, it's not the whole song...
@@ericvonsteuben7533 i know .. it was chopped up into another part
Didacts & narpits = parents & teachers… Listen!
Yes! Think of it as an argument between authority figures and young adults rebelling against them to chart their own identities!
@michaelkeller6223 the song is a journey from birth to death, and each stage school, work, love, loss and being reborn to do it again.
