what a band, awsome, i grew up in the 70 and 80's, this bad covered so many genres, i didnt like everything they did, but every album had something special, would love to see ther next album have a harder edge like they did when they started, rock and roll hall of fame, time Rush was there, great trio, the one great band i have not yet seen live, increadible body of work, i mean, how many bands have ever put out this much music
I have seen them live 19 times,... do yourself a favor, SEE THEM!! They are every bit as incredible live as they are on their albums,... TRULY one of the greatest bands of all time!
.rush has so much to offer, sounds like the influence for this was from the Police............fuck it its a good tune, first time i have heard this one.................Rush, a sound for everyone, the 80's had some cool tunes too
1 person gave into the enemy within and hit the dislike button. Clearly, they lacked the grace under pressure required to quell those inner demons and like this video!
I have to say, Rush's videos have always been pretty lackluster, but all that is an afterthought to the incredible music. It's a shame this band is so unappreciated
The Police couldn't handle this tune. No offense, I'm actually a huge Police fan. Theres a reason Rush cover bands make most of us cringe. Their just on another planet when it comes to sound and arrangement. A good Planet :)
@tintinchinty lol thats true of almost every rush song :) But yes, this one in particular. Most people haven't even heard of it and yet i would have to say that it is my favorite song by them.
What baffles me is how critics and alike cant see the brillance of tunes like this?
Its complex, it has mad melody and great lyrical content. What the hell do you want, oh yea I forgot 3 minute re-plays of the same song over and over, what was I thinking, DUH... People are just stupid...
LIke the songs says do you want to just exist or do you want to live. Are you going to give in to security under pressure ( the PATRIOT act) which strips your freedoms and liberties. Will you be part of the revolution or just part of the resistance.
Hell yeah!! I like how they tried to put a nationalist spin on that law by calling it the Patriot Act. It's ironic that a law passed that is supposedly in the defense of freedom and the American way of life did more to abridge American's rights than almost any other piece of legislation in history.

@cody6202000 The fact that you mentioned Rush and Miley Cyrus in the same statement just says that you know nothing about music... Either that or you managed to be subtle at trolling. If its the latter, congratulations, if its the prior just give up.
They really should play this one at their next tour...this one would bring the house down, with that ending...similar to "Closer to the Heart," ya think?
This song got no attention in the mainstream music circles, which makes no sense. If this song was written by Sting and THE POLICE Rolling Stone mag would spunking all over themselves saying how great it is...Political RAG
xyz321123, although, The Police is another favorite band of mine I completely agree! Magazines like Rolling Stone just cater to whatever is popular at the time. I really hate that. I could live without them and MTV too.
my fav 10 rush albums: 2112 hemispheres moving pictures permament waves grace under pressure a farewell to kings rush hold your fire counterparts signals
i'm a huge a rush fan as well....rush albums and rush songs are like my kids.......i really don't like to choose favorites because then i feel sorry for the other ones...
I'm a huge Rush fan too...but I think their best years were from 1974-1981. The only weak album in those first eight studio albums was Caress of Steel. Even that album isn't bad, but it just doesn't stack up against Rush, Fly, 2112, Farewell, Hemi, Waves and then the crowning achievement Pictures. I like their 80's stuff too but I think it takes a back seat to the 70's stuff. I find those 80's albums had 3, 4 or 5 strong tracks and the rest was filler...there were very few weak tracks early on.
Every single song on GUP is incredible. May I suggest you give "Between the Wheels" a listen. It definately stands out from all the other tracks on the album. It's great!
I honestly feel that most of Rush's albums from the 80's were unjustly maligned. I guess everyone expected them to do "Tom Sawyer" over and over ad nauseam. Oh well, their loss. I just bought this album (I've listened to it before but until now it never made it into my collection) and I must say that it's probably one of my favorites by them!
To you is is movement or is it action? Is it contact or just reaction? And you? Revolution? Just resistance? Is it living or just existence? Yeah you! It takes a little more persistance to get up and go the distance.
What a profound and talented writer Peart is. I hope Rush lives on and on and on. It will be a sad day when they finally call it quits.
the band that they are, the friends that they are, and the reputation they have, i dont think they will ever call it quitts, but yes, it will deffinately be a sad day if and when they do call it quits
I saw them on Snakes and Arrows in Boise! They are getting old but they still rock as great as ever. Just referring to the inevitable effects of age..

What a bass line! When I heard this at the first time I decided to play the bass! Geddy is such a genious like Lifeson and Peart...I love Rush...Brazil loves Rush forever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That was meant to be a positive comment, but obviously it was SERIOUSLY taken the wrong way =)
