This song was "for Neil," and in his absence, they chose an arrangement with no percussion. The "missing man formation." Truly brilliant, haunting, and a hilight of the transcendance of RUSH, as a band, and Neil as a musician, and lyricist. It is a beautiful and touching tribute to one of the best. Thank you for taking the time to react to this.
Absolutely gorgeous rendition of the song, and captures the sadness we all feel about Neil’s passing. And I believe many of us tear up at this and the live version of The Garden.
As a Rush fan for over 40+ years I had huge doubts about this version the first time I heard it. It’s absolutely beautiful and brings tears to my eyes every time. R.I.P. Neil and thank you to all of the soldiers in uniform past and present.
Glad you discovered this cover. It demonstrates the genius that was Neil Peart. I believe over time more people will realize his lyrical genius as time goes on. I’ve been a fan for almost 40 years. Great emotional reaction…
Tears me up every time. You need to do The Garden by Rush. The last song on their last album. Recommend the studio version with lyrics first, then do the live version on Clockwork Angels. Beautiful song! Great reaction!
This was amazing I think countries should stop fighting with guns and have a battle of the bands and if so i think could follow these men into battle. Have you done Hearts Cover of Stairway To Heaven at the Kennedy Honors Johns son plays the drums Its Really good its worth seeing
Not a cover, but a "request" of sorts, song off of the same album this was originally on - As Geddy said, "Another song from the same album. A little bit of a change of pace. This is called Mission" - th-cam.com/video/mNn3zI2bCHw/w-d-xo.html This is my go-to song for anyone interested in hearing what Rush sounded like during their heavy keyboard era.
Best cover of this by far. Had me tearing up when first released. Check Jacob Moon's channel: he has a couple of Rush covers, including this. There's another beautiful Rush song: Losing it. Check that, and then there's a nice cover here, including violin. th-cam.com/video/EQ1wNxsQwnY/w-d-xo.html

Rush just doesn't make music, they make art that transcends into infinite possibilities.
