Dave Grohl's introduction of Rush explained to me why I should have cared …. but having the progressive rock genre occupy most of my focus since the early 70s, Rush is one of the "epic" bands that never connected with me. Neil Pert has always been a drummer of the ages, and they are one of the few original bands of that era that live on and still have amazing technical chops and tightness (on par with the best of Crimson and vintage Yes), but damn…. it's always been Geddy's voice that makes my ears bleed. laugh Good for them and their fans that the R&R Hall of Fame gave them the recognition. Blah. Blah. Blah.

Yeah... Geddys voice is really shrill now. Amazing that fans don't care though. I saw him a couple of years ago and the crowd was mixed.. and he wasn't hitting the high notes. No one cared.
I think their power lies more in the music and those Yes-like mystical lyrics...
And the fact the lead singer (sole) singer plays bass... how many bands does the lead singer play bass?
Also, how many bands does the drummer write most of the lyrics?
And they sure put out a lot of sound for a 3 dude band.

I thought you were talking about Rush Limbaugh, maybe he was being inducted into the radio hall of fame.

I like the band, though, too. All three of them are very fine musicians. Geddy Lee has always amazed me at how he can sing lead and still play all those cool bass licks.

Thanks!

Let us not forget, when he's not playing bass, he's playing keyboards, and playing bass pedals/sequencer with his enormous feet.
They use some prerecorded effects, but 90% of it is live, badass musicianship.

Geddy has a shrill voice? LOL! Where have you been? :-)
Either you love it or you hate it, kinda like Jon Anderson (That chick can really sing!). :-P
Personally, I love it. INDIVIDUALITY. Nobody sounds like that.
Respect.

Check him lately... his once clear high voice is being constantly strained. Also, at the award ceremony I think he was just trying too hard and compounded the problem.

And I adore Jon Andersons voice... from Yes to King Crimson to Anderson Bruford Wakeman Howes' Union album to any other number of endeavors... but I hafta say that my fave is his effort with Vangelis... Friends of Mr Cairo.


So amazing how many stages this song goes through... with a powerful ending.





She came, as in the book, Mickey Spillane
That Saturday night dark masquerade
Had filled his friend with lead, the same, sweetheart
But then, as nothing happens quite the same
Investigation is the game
He had to check her story right away - he dead
Sam Space his buddy Archer first to go he got it - he dead
She spelt it out, how could they know the 'Fatman' got it - he dead
Her sister didn't really live at all - confusion - he dead
His chase led to the Fatman, to face the friends of Mr. Cairo!

That night, the double crosser got it right
Pretending he was really dim
He slipped to Sam a double gin (Mickey Finn)
He woke, the boys had gone, but not his gun
They'd left a note to lead him on
The chase to find the Maltese Falcon - you bet
Early thirties gangster movies
Set to spellbind population
From Chicago to Hong Kong
Via Istanbul the Talking Tong
Dirty rats thru' prohibition
Money flowed thru gangsterism
Acting out his fantasy
In Hollywoods vicinity
The best part for the best rendition
Al Capone he sent to prison
Citizen Kane came fast and quickly
Conquerin ol' New York City
Poking fun at superstition
Media became television
Give me Cagney any day
Or Jimmy Stewart for President
Or Edward 'G' and all those guys
Who always shoot between the eyes
Between the eyes
Between the eyes

Father love do you work, do you work for Mother
Chances could call, and accept that, be no other
Science as it might, disappear correspond with colour
Chance is the fruit, will outlive, what is now the brother
Call for total wealth to distribute like a picture
In black and white, give it joy, give it, let it hit you
Spoil our existence by extreme gift to population
Father love do you work, do you work for Mother
Tell me straight be the Godfather be no other
Media Kings give us now give us total movie
Now being here, being now, being here believing

One on one to talk to you
Like film stars they get close to you
You've mirrored his appeal
He wants you so, he wants to be beside you
Then you pass by giving him the other side of you
Like the mystics do
So that every time he moves, he moves for you
Soul and light can always see
The meeting of true love and she
This silent night and I,
I guess a lonely mind might see
I've seen love on the screen
I've seen a screen goddesss and me, ohhh
How often this, how often, this the power of you
And so, I must confess
Whatever I see
I'm meant to be there with you
With you with you, with you, with you

Silent golden movies, talkies, technicolour, long ago
My younger ways stand clearer, clearer than my footprints
Stardom greats I've followed closely
Closer than the nearest heartbeat
Longer that expected - they were great
Oh love, oh love, just to see them
Acting on the silver screen, oh my
Clark Gable, Fairbanks, Maureen O'Sullivan
Fantasy would fill my life and I
Love fantasy so much
Did you see in the morning light
I really talked, yes I did, to Gods early dawning light
And I was privileged to be, as I am to this day
To be with you. To be with you.
To be with you. To be with you.
To be with you.

Turn up the volume so you can hear the crispness.....




State of life may I live, may I love
Coming out the sky, I name me a name
Coming out silver word "What it is?"
It is the very nature of the sound the game
Siamese, Indionese to Tibet treat the life
As a game, if you please

Coming up carabi this sense of freedom
Derives from a medative state
Movin' on, believe that's it, call it magic
Third world, it is I only guessed it

Shablam idi shablam ida
Shablam idi shablam ida
Shablam idi shablam ida

Shot to the soul the flame of Oroladin
The essence of the word
The state of independence

Sounds like a signal from you
Bring me to meet your sound
And I will bring you to my heart

Love like a signal you call
Touching my body, my soul
Bring to me, you to meet me here

Home be the temple of your heart
Home be the body of your love
Just like holy water to my lips

Hey, hey, yes I do know how I survive
Yes I do know why I m alive
To love to be with you
Day by, day by, day by day

Hey, hey
Say aye yaya oh
Yayah yaya oh
Be the sound of higher love today

Hey, hey, time, time again, it is said
We will hear, we will see
See it all in his wisdom hear
His truth will abound the land
This truth will abound the land

This state of independence shall be
This state of independence shall be
Time, time again, it is said
We will hear, we will see

See it all in his wisdom hear
His truth will abound the land
This truth will abound the land
This state of independence shall be

This state of independence shall be
This state of independence shall be
This state of independence shall be
This state of independence shall be
This state of independence shall be




And of course this will lead to Jarre and Mike Oldfield and Tangerine Dream... etc.

Crap.. I should have started a separate thread for all this JA & V.
LOL.




Outside of this and inside of that, the memory lingers so right, completely as that
We've loved a long time, be my friend, I need you

Inside of this and outside of that
There's so much more to finding out how we forever simply feel the way
The wayward-winds that hide the storms at night like the winter came,
It changed our lives and we were very merry to be there
I love, get used to being this way
I love, once again a story really true creates a sound so good, that it's true

So outside of this and inside of that
There are words that come with time like love songs they seem self written
So true, they seem so true
I work a moments time and feel this is one of life's mysteries
Bringing a smile, 'cause I know what it does to you
So I'm trying to pass it thru, trying for you

Countless variations of the memory, the state, the mere emotion of getting 'round
Crazy understandings of the way we tilt the light but it shines when we make the sound
Don't live by mistakes, we can dance to your tune
But in reaching out and touching your love
Feel those countless understandings of the countless many reasons, there are two, offer you my love
Countless understandings of a debt to starving nations, needing love, I tell no lie
Countless staring messages, has mortal life reflection, is it spelled out once or twice
But there's this whole understanding and it's coming I guess, I know
I hope that you can get into this, to this
I was there and then and then
You were there and then and then
We were there, the beginning of time
I was there and then and then
You were there and then and then
We are together in time
I was there and then and then
You were there and then and then
We were there, the beginning of time

Dave, two of my favorite songs, EVER. <3

But can you imagine hitting those high notes for 35 years+?
Jon has maintained forever, but you do know his voice is shot, and has some major problems? One of the reasons he's not with Yes anymore.
I guess I'm more forgiving for vocalists than players, that after decades of singing, it has got to take its toll…

Great videos. Thanks!

Yeah.. although I will say this cat Jon Davison has a great voice and does a super job sounding almost exactly alike. Sort of like his name is almost the same...lol.
