[weedmanguy420]

no RSPureRum RUSH IS the greatest band ever

[aj2fireflash]

real drummers play in the middle of the ocean

[bilderberghunter]

RUSH one of the greatest bands ever

[Rudedog0110]

It's crazy how people say the beginning is the easiest and it's probably the easiest part in the song! Everything else is crazy!

[puppetmaster6666]

how u make it animated!^%$#@!@#$%^

[mestregigolo]

why the fuck are these airplanes always passing by?

[bozhno]

@mestregigolo

Read the quote in the beginning: It is always a happy day when YYZ appears on our luggage tags.

[JediMagnusDelcarte]

@mestregigolo YYZ is the code for the Pearson International Airport in Toronto - RUSH's Hometown.

YYZ is a song about home.

[haden267]

This is amazing. All on 1 computer! Neil peart is my all time favorite drummer. Im only 15 but I live for rock, metal, and hard rock!! Rush is made of gods!!!

[mightyshrimp]

fake

[mightyshrimp]

FAKE

[ladyhysteria1]

Awesome!

[TheRickyleeds]

Nobody will ever lick his sticks - Neil Peart, The world's greatest drummer.

[system3414]

kudos to creator of this video.

freaking mindblowing accuracy

[METALLICAFREAK999]

HES ON WATER ITS THE JESUS DRUM SET!!! YYZ!!!

[CHEESEBURGER10000]

@METALLICAFREAK999 lol its cuz he did this once with this exact kit on the mp tour

[metallicazcool]

@METALLICAFREAK999 My name has metallica in it to =D

[yourdeadtomex]

why just why is he playing ontop of water is it me or is it because neil peart is jesus? cuz he is.

[Drunkwraith]

Everyone in Rush is a fucking beast at what they do, and its a shame most people don't realize it. I still get mad when I see drummers talking shit about Peart, because it just shows how little they know about their instrument. Neil, Alex, and Geddy are all monsters at making good music that flows seamlessly, no matter how many riffs there are or how technical they get, which is about as respectable a musician you can possibly be in my opinion.

[yourbuddy455]

he is like the Jesus of drums

[RyanDiamond100]

It's only now, after playing Rush sheet music for drums, that I realise just how clever Neil Peart's drumming is.

[vdbniels]

Wow, this is awesome.

[xoangela12xo]

he is lagit one of the best drummers i nthw world. trying to learn this song on drums but its very hard but i'll do it !! =] then ima popst it up ...watch out for itt it'll b bad ass

[29dave]

Can anybody tell me how to play the fill from 2:15 to 2:18 ? I've been trying to figure out exactly what he's playing (note values and sticking). Thanks....

[made4tvmovie]

[narno2546]

narno2546 neil peart is the best drummer ive seen in my life time he rocks yahooooo!!!!!

[VaughansterMonster29]

2:15 his head is huge

[Hypotiposis]

WHY!? in the HELL!!!

can't Guitar hero look like this?

[InAGaddaDaVida29]

@Hypotiposis

'Cause they're cheap ass cunts.

[mairava1996]

@InAGaddaDaVida29 I know right? This looks better than Guitar Hero and this is from the 90's

[antonioaquila]

YYZ is the airport code for toronto's pearson airport in case ure wondering

[TheDavyjr]

this is amazing  (Y)(Y)(Y)

[JCReeves235]

ty for doin that. Can you aim it so a kid can learn the moves? Please?

[grizzlyadams53]

the only bad thing about the animation is when it zooms out, he gets a huge head.

[maxthedrummer2008]

lol i noticed that too :)

[droctogonapus84]

holy crap that was awesome

[JayGOMH]

haha this is awesome, the only thing is that he looks like he's bored haha

[thecastman97]

[tanooj2]

[sdv6]

[geralives]

[GrooveThumper]

[geralives]

[GrooveThumper]

lol no actual poopage, but i had noooooooooooooooooo idea that it was morse code

Just a level of genius i was not aware of.

[geralives]

lol you just learned something new today!! :O

[pikminhero]

it was actually random letters, but at the beginning the bells are actually morse code for "YYZ"

[TheSKSpecial]

Code for Toronto Int'l Airport.

[OwNZorZ]

Spectacular lighting and effects.

[drumbeast129]

false

[mikeprtnoy]

wow...neil peart and joey jordison compared equally! I need a drink! On the one hand a guy years ahead of his time with technique and composition...onthe other hand a moron with a double foot. By the way this animation rocks

[Devr0ss]

lol

this coming from Mike Portnoy, the fool would be wise to listen!

[mikeprtnoy]

listen to what fckstick? portnoy is not flawless but he is an exceptional drummer and you are an exceptional fcknut

[Devr0ss]

no man, I meant the other guy was the fool and he should listen to YOU because your name was Mike Portnoy who is a drumming god. Love Dream Theatre, saw them umpteen times.

;p

[mikeprtnoy]

cool man, my mistake :) peace

[nablore4]

if hes gonna have that much drums and cymbals he should buy him self a rack

[MADdrummer971]

NICE VIDEO MAN

[alerotunno]

FANTASTIC!!!

[animemonarch888]

[TheThundermonkeys]

[MickeyLove01]

Canada is a nice place, when I was there I noticed the beggars were better dressed than me.

[thomas1231235]

[LesPaulLiberty]

[strum21]

Rush 4 Ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

[strum21]

Rush 4 Ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

[digitalmckracken]

RUSH LIVES!!

[jdrizd2]

Wow! very nice I love that song and this made it much more enjoyable! Thanks!

[nfera]

neil peart, rush, and ESPECIALLY YYZ can lick my SACK!

[turtleman0307]

Fuck You

[Boredom732]

No one wants to lick your sack, and no one ever will. Get over it.

[Boredom732]

That isnt my mom. It was in your dreams when that one hobo guy that lives downtown would do it for anything, but when you asked him in real life he said "Where is it?"

[nfera]

ohemgee you're a comic fucking genius. i'm giving you a thumbs up. hope your life doesn't suck as much as i assume it does.

[Uglycannibal]

Look out guys, its the internet tough guy, he will beat you up if you disagree with him on the internet. SRSLY

[fearmissnemo]

you think you're insulting him by complimenting his mother?

sure, you may be calling her a whore and all, but you obviously like her.

[nfera]

explain the compliment. i simply can't see it. "Hey your mom is a whore." "Gee thanks bud! Your mom's a swell lady too!"

[fearmissnemo]

there was obviously some good reason you wanted to fuck her. :[

[nfera]

whoa whoa i didn't say i fucked her. i said she licked my sack. i know better than to put anything of mine in there! (if i ever want to see it again)

[fearmissnemo]

why don't you deal with their video being on youtube? :[

rush is one of the greatest bands there ever was.

[nfera]

because I'm an ASSHOLE! *sigh*

kay fine i'm done. sorry.

[animemonarch888]

and still is.

[hammer1165]

good animation, well done.

how many drummers does it take to change a light bulb?

answer 2

one to screw in the light bulb, and the other to say how Neil Peart could do it better.

[nndsmc]

funkeh

[Gunjanamoli]

i really liked the video

great work guys

keep it up and best of luck

[hungryhungryhippo77]

where can u download this video?

[mikefiore6]

Why is he playing on lake ontario? He better not fall in, he will most likely become mutated

[Stratocasterinferno]

Rush is an awesome band, and YYZ is just awesome, I like the flamenco influence on this song

[bogerdude]

yy f ing z rocks way before my time but this song is timeless great befor a sk8 or boadyboard

[grhyrrggrhfhfh]

Awsome!!! what program did you use?

[oriz0r]

Umm, yeah.

This rocks.

What I know though, is how in the flaming bejesus would one go about making something like this? (That is, without it taking more than 5 years of hard work)

[maibalzich]

its not rush nor yyz, its god......he did all this.......yyeeeaaaaaaaaaa

[TheKingOfBassGuitar]

It's by Rush dude if your gonna be on this page you shouldn't be on it at all if you think the bands YYZ. Sorry but.. yea.

[greenfro8888]

dude best song by yyz and like a 18 piece drum set freakin awsome

[srklgk]

great:D

[devilgirlpk]

i love it

[rajtherat]

wow do u play drums also cuz you know where he hits perfectly!

[Magician396]

I have a video of me doing part of this song on the drums and the intro to one of my band's songs!

[oneidea2112]

rocking man i am sure that took a lot of work

[woodytfc]

Ah man that was absolutely awesome. Incredible work and detail. Thanks for sharing your talent.

[blueeyedmadman]

dude this video was amazing mainly bcuz YYZ is my favorite rush song of all time. but, on the first drum solo it looked like neils head was a bit big for his body lol just to tell ya lol

[jacknitz]

What are you talking about? Tapping the symbols. I think you need to watch it again and open your eyes this time.

[mrsiix]

make one of subdivisions

[jamesduer24]

this kid james duer's the best drummerr ive ever seen

[Hollywood2112]

Going to see Neil and RUSH at the end of the month on their new Snakes and Arrows Tour at Virginia Beach!!!!!WHOOOOO HOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!

[prissboy91]

holy shit this is  especialy cause thats like my all time favorite drummer.

[DynastyLang]

who ever made this has talent, and should apply to Pixar. The only thing i saw the could be improved was he could drive right thru the symbles when he hits them and not just tap them. but other than that excellant work.

[jacknitz]

I love it. Can anyone tell me who originally made this? I see a lot of copies on you-tube and I really want to know who actually did the animation. What a fucking great job!

[Avionik]

Here is the website for the creator: bobbysbrane dot com

[LarsUrlic8]

that's amazing!!!

[olurcho]

FOOKIN'SUPERB! "Now that's all,Folks!" :-))))

[professionnel111]

It's really an amazing animation. Now I know how to play certain blasts!

[bassplyr331]

who does tim alexander play for?

[charlesdalmer]

primus

[Hannibal222]

Tim Alexander is the greatest drummer of all time

[ralafriz]

tim's pretty good, and i'm a fan. but i wouldn't say he's the greatest...

[Hannibal222]

I know, I was being a little facetious. Good to know there are other fans out there :)

[prissboy91]

nah neil peart is so much better

[givemeaname55555]

uhh that is neil peart

[prissboy91]

do u think i no that? its not like it has his name on the name of this vid

[KirikBaget]

mike mangini,dave lombardo...

[forevrdisturbed]

i agree wit Skaflar,that would be awesome to see one of these of joey jordison!!!

[Skaflar]

That was so ball stomping, I would like to see and animation of Joey Jordison my good man!

[thephilmingo]

this is soo frikin crazy good!

[Terentek]

Well that was an excellent watch.

That really must have beena labour of love.

I am also a HUGH Rush fan.

Ir eally liked the attention tod etail,are you a drummer I wonder???

Much respects to you,you are a very talented man.

Nigel.

[hantipants]

Neil Peart...good but no match for Keith Moon!

[wingnutrules]

Rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrright. Moon is Peart's janitor.

[macbeardy]

Totaly You Tubeular dude

Peart is a ledgend

[crablord]

haha this is so tight. it was on drummerworld for a while.

[Alghazanth]

Yep, its stupid

[carpcake]

I got such a kick out of this the first time I saw it. The animation is "technically" correct. I believe the cracking noise during the lightning bolts was done with a piece of paneling snapping, if I remember my rush history.

[Alghazanth]

that is so stupid

[andrex1212]

how do you figure? just cuz you aren't as uber as danethical? this is an amazing video!! YOU are stupid for that comment.

[WillyWonkaIsSatanic]

i liked the video cause i play around with maya modeling and im a drummer.. so this is like a double treat for me lol .. good job on both

[marcelomarcel]

Neil is an alien! He plays drums like a robot. One hell of a musician !!!

[Tamaerick]

i love the stick throwing during the last bass solo

[s0rdax]

cool,snyggt gjort.

[CameronCrazy357]

amazing

[Miros89]

thats so badass.

[tesshusama]

you cant force music taste on anyone! non the less, this is a musical masterpiece!

[DPerry2112]

Very nice. Thank YOU.

[ayesoundmate]

i dont like the song, but the animations cool.

[eman1967]

you know nothing of music

[82895150]

Why is he so highly regarded I dont get it. He's a drummer just liek every other drummer to me.

[shailey8]

Yea. and YOU can't spell like. He is the best drummer around. Just like any. Ha that's a good one. Can you play this one?

[fulmetlroses]

you have no taste in music if you cant see he is obviously the best

[andrex1212]

not necessarily the 'best' because you can't define the best, BUT he is of the highest skill in his genre by FAR! I love Rush just for their musical talent ^.^

[mikeysnipa]

i was gunna say "lame" but then as i started watching lol i thought different haha

[Casperthedopestghost]

niiiice. thats awesomely tight.

[itdudntwork]

Go to Neil Peart's website, the guy who made this did it on 3D Studio Max 3 (The 8th version is out now,) and he air drummed the whole thing with motion capture.
