They aren't trying to compete with the Who. He SAID at the start, they LOVED that music, that band, and that era. It is an honor to pay their tribute to the best rock band ever :)
They (Rush) are amazing musicians, but nothing compares to Roger Daltrey singing this song. It's not a question of being a technically good singer... BTW, Geddy Lee's voice... "raise my voice in anger"?
@lnghrndude02 You know, the only two options aren't Rush or Justin Bieber. Most people probably don't like a British 60's mod band AND a late 70's-and-on prog rock band.
@AcSouza1973 I kinda doubt that, maybe less is more? I love Keith & Neil's style & playing, but, i kinda think Mr. Moon was a little busy sometimes. If I could talk the jack-offs in my band to cover this, my style would follow closer to neil's. Just my $0.02.
I love Thunderfingers,but Geddy makes him look like a child!!!! It's about time that folks realize that Ged is the best rock and roll bass player of all time!!!!
@astrella Then I suggest you listen to "The Who - The Seeker (Vinyl)" uploaded by Vinyl Central. And if you want to see a drummer really injecting magic into the music of the group, watch any video of The Who performing, for instance, "I Can See for Miles" or "My Generation". Unlike most groups of their time, who placed the drummer at the back of the stage, Keith was given pride of place at the front, where his unorthodox but mesmeric style was highlighted. Please explore and enjoy his work
To be honest I don't think that anyone sould say that Rush or The Who is better than the other. The Who was Rough and Tough, played with tons of emotion and pulled out all the stops. Rush plays with a ton of musical talent, and wrote more "orchestral" songs with more effects. They are both tremendous bands, but in very different ways... Just my thoughts on that.
@asl1095 Its not so much that one drummer is better than the other. Mooney good go off on one and only the Ox could bring him back to the song. but he could do things that no other drummer on the planet could do. And they still cant. And I don't mean that other drummers knew what he was doing but couldn't duplicate it. They didn't even know how he was doing what he did. And they still don't.
Entiwstle considered the Jimmy Hendrix of bass guitar, Keith Moon, considered the coolest, charismatic, maniac on a drum kit of all time..Daltrey, the most masculine, howling singer ever. Listen to Eddy Vedder and anyone else that tries to cover Daltrey's voice when they cover the Who's "Love Reign O'er Me", and it PALES in comparison...
@H3r3Com3sTh3Sun Read the whole comment. It's my opinion, that Keith Moon is better. I like Moons style...It is more raw and with more feeling and less technique. But thats a matter of taste i guess
LOL!! You are clueless chief... Rush was cool when I was in 6th grade...I left them there when I started graduating to better, COOLER, GUY'S music like the Who. Getty Lee sounds like a homo singing this song compared to Daltrey... The Who are the TRUE godfathers of Punk Rock, and anti establishment music. Rush, Ingvae Malmsteen, and every other stupid ass that are the BEST "technique" musicians should be TEACHERS of music.
@Blitzt1974 Please...Before you shoot off your mouth next time, RESEARCH and actually LISTEN to the Who's albums in their entirety, especially LIVE, and THEN you can comment...Until then, put a lid on it JUNIOR...

@shizokiller nope we don't care wut people say. I've been a RUSH fan since 1977 (yeah a helluva long time ago) and nothing anyone says can deter my unabashed fandom.
Alex is totally getting into the intro, looks like he is enjoying himself. He and Geddy at the front of the stage during the solo is killer. Freaking awesome band!!!!!
Good ear. His and Geddy's guitar work really well, and Neil's pocket is right there.
I'll probably catch shit for this but I've been a fan since the early 70's. In other words "Oh well" : Believe, me I love Geedy's voice as a general rule, but could do without his upper register on this particular tune.
Well, if I can give my opinion though I'll probably get hate for this ^^; I prefer Rush's version of The Seeker to the Original by The Who because not only I find Geddy more Animated* AND I prefer his voice to Daltrey's one, Neil also sound to me, better than Moon. As for Alex and Townshend, they both play this song very well Peace, friends C:
Another Canuck who's a huge Who fan .This is as mentioned a very well done rendition,done with much respect.Also this is done with some vim and vigor, Rush have a different kind of vibe than the Who but you can see the links,between the two especially in the rhythm section.
As an ENORMOUS Who fan all I can say is thank you for this, Rush. This is a wonderful homage to a great band offered up by another great band. Neal Peart often said The Who inspired him to write music (and the Moon drum fill influence is clearly there). This is an excellent version of this tune. Great job from three of my favorite musicians from the Great White North...eh?
@Hyigor1996 very eloquently stated. im going to guess you are like 14? and @GiovaniB52, you are right, im not a fan, but his voice did make him millions, so i have to give him props
@CLaptonIsGod3324 I think you're to be pittied. You react with hostility and vitriol to anyone who doesn't share or at least express your exact opinions about Eric Claptons place in rock music. Admiring Lifeson's guirtar work isn't an attack on EC no matter what you think.
Please go get a life. there should be more to your existence than treadcrapping on people who celebrate good music.
@Koolkitties Agreed only because two of the original Who members have passed, and Daltrey lost his high register.After all he is in his 60s, I saw them in the mid 70s ,and they brought the roof down.
@CLaptonIsGod3324 Well that annoying voice that you say he has ,gave him fame and fortune and it works perfect for Rush, and we don't find it annoying at all. Clearly your not a Rush fan.
@CLaptonIsGod3324 Haha, that coming from an Eric Clapton fan!! Incredible! Eric Clapton's monotone drawl could be a cure for insomnia...and don't even start going on about his supposed 'virtuosity' as a guitarist. Let's just say that for all the guitarists considered the best, he's the one who most lacks flair and flamboyancy.
Rush is awesome; I love Rush and most all of their songs....but unless you haven't listened to The Who singing this; you'll know that The Who totally beats this cover of The Seeker
I do like how Getty Lee clerified that they didn't do the song however
Alex looks like John Daly, the golfer. I REALLY don't like Daly, sorry to his fans, but Alex is great, really underrated, but no wonder, Geddy and Neil are beasts.
@scartissue94 no, the Who (should of died before they got old. Keith did and John was relatively old) is over player and over rated. My opinion of course . Most Pop Culture, Music etc is craptastic. I won't worship this stuff like your average brainwashed sheeple would.
What the fuck? You're wishing death upon people them now? The Who isn't even overrated at all! Sure their stuff is played on CSI, but not much else. They're a better band than Rush.
@scartissue94 BETTER BAND ?,Yes, the WHO barely beats Rush in a homely contest . Early Who is interesting. But anything from Tommy on , PUKE !! As players, the Bass, John, and Drums, Keith, over played while Pete strums some Chords and the fumbles on the lead breaks. He smashes his guitars out of frustration of f'n up. Explosions, windmills and Guitar smashing, That's was the WHo LIVEGimmicks, and the Who at least admits it in some of their interviews. As Roger said "the HORRIBLE WHO " .
You can't be anymore wrong. Who cares what Roger says, he said that when he was feuding with Pete. The Who was one of the first bands to really rock hard!
@EarlShoes1 You clearly do not like music then, you say john and keith were overplayed, they were the best of the best, you say anything after 'tommy' is ''puke'' then you haven't heard whos next or quadrophenia then, i like rush but nothing they've done lives up the what the who did, rush wouldn't exist without the who, led zep and so on.
@warmadscot I'm an old timer who had Who's Next on 8 track , By numbers on Vinyl and Live at Leeds on cassette. The Kids are Alright on vhs. I am so sick of Baba O'reilly (I'd rather listen to Boris the Spider) and later WHO played on the radio. Click, unless I want a headache. Just tired of it. I like all kinds of music but won't worship these so-called rock gods. Voicing MY opinion on the internet is fun.
@EarlShoes1 I would suggest a music appreciation course at your local community college. Thw who never bore me, they have endless talent captured live, like Johnny Winter
@warmadscot Rush took the influence from the who and zep and made it into a brand new form of music...they are basically one of the 3 bands that brought prog out of the underground...their innovations to the genre are endless.
Geddy Lee's voice is too good for this song, but anyways, rush have lots of albums and i think they got tired, so they doin some covers....and its pretty cool
This is great- but honestly how the fuck did "politics" get onto this video. And I use the term politics loosely, you slack jawed nationalistic thugs :|
They aren't trying to compete with the Who. He SAID at the start, they LOVED that music, that band, and that era. It is an honor to pay their tribute to the best rock band ever :)

Alex looks like John Daly, the golfer. I REALLY don't like Daly, sorry to his fans, but Alex is great, really underrated, but no wonder, Geddy and Neil are beasts.

Oh, So Why I love this band! Could have blown the WHO away, but humbly plaid this song true to the WHO's version!

@fiddlestyx3006 Um, maybe they would of blown thwe 2010 Who away, but there is NO WAY Rush could even touch the 1970 Who live.

I think Geddy should have used a more aggressive tone to his voice.

Geddy's bass has an Ox-like resonance to it. Great cover.

@scartissue94 no, the Who (should of died before they got old. Keith did and John was relatively old) is over player and over rated. My opinion of course . Most Pop Culture, Music etc is craptastic. I won't worship this stuff like your average brainwashed sheeple would.

@EarlShoes1
What the fuck? You're wishing death upon people them now? The Who isn't even overrated at all! Sure their stuff is played on CSI, but not much else. They're a better band than Rush.
scartissue94 1 year ago
@scartissue94 BETTER BAND ?,Yes, the WHO barely beats Rush in a homely contest . Early Who is interesting. But anything from Tommy on , PUKE !! As players, the Bass, John, and Drums, Keith, over played while Pete strums some Chords and the fumbles on the lead breaks. He smashes his guitars out of frustration of f'n up. Explosions, windmills and Guitar smashing, That's was the WHo LIVEGimmicks, and the Who at least admits it in some of their interviews. As Roger said "the HORRIBLE WHO " .

@EarlShoes1
You can't be anymore wrong. Who cares what Roger says, he said that when he was feuding with Pete. The Who was one of the first bands to really rock hard!

@EarlShoes1 You clearly do not like music then, you say john and keith were overplayed, they were the best of the best, you say anything after 'tommy' is ''puke'' then you haven't heard whos next or quadrophenia then, i like rush but nothing they've done lives up the what the who did, rush wouldn't exist without the who, led zep and so on.

@warmadscot I'm an old timer who had Who's Next on 8 track , By numbers on Vinyl and Live at Leeds on cassette. The Kids are Alright on vhs. I am so sick of Baba O'reilly (I'd rather listen to Boris the Spider) and later WHO played on the radio. Click, unless I want a headache. Just tired of it. I like all kinds of music but won't worship these so-called rock gods. Voicing MY opinion on the internet is fun.

@EarlShoes1 I would suggest a music appreciation course at your local community college. Thw who never bore me, they have endless talent captured live, like Johnny Winter

@warmadscot Rush took the influence from the who and zep and made it into a brand new form of music...they are basically one of the 3 bands that brought prog out of the underground...their innovations to the genre are endless.

@EarlShoes1 Your opinion is worth it's weight in manure. Now I leave to escape Geddy's screeching/singing.

Geddy Lee's voice is too good for this song, but anyways, rush have lots of albums and i think they got tired, so they doin some covers....and its pretty cool
FloydMedal 1 year ago
Yes a good cover, but of course Geddy Lee's voice doesn't have the same resonance as Roger Daltry's
