i was at the cleavland time machine show and i remember when they played this every time neil hit the drums at the begining part flames shot up and you could feel them all the way in the back
Excuse me MACHINEHEAD does better than this.Where did u find that from a comic book on idiots who copy other musicians and the boneheads who are taken buy such a proposterous knowledge that they can do a better job at copying the tune.If it not for this tune would u think MACHINEHEAD could have produced this epic?Doubt it very much so go smoke somemore of that wheelchair weed and listen to yourself sing.Maybe u can learn how to sing and tell the world u are better than Geddy Lee
If in the Old Worlds does one feel a connection or is it just another passing facade that fades away? Does one feel something within those mossy stones that is ones lost civilization or not? does it surprise you that things never change?

9 million people get killed by the Christ, they get burned by stakes, got hanged or beaten to dead. Bless them. I rather be with them in hell, then with the people how laugh at the face of someone how get burned by stake in heaven. Stupidity and superficiality that is the sourch of this evil and crimes!!!
thugofire and Wrekshin, neither party is a paragon of freedom. But when you look at which party installed judges who stole the presidential election, said corporations are people, and wants health insurers to be able to dump their customers because they get sick, that would be the Republican Party -- no matter how much some Koch Brothers front group paid you to post otherwise on chat boards and YouTube.
This was the first album I ever purchased ... back when it was new [on cassette :) ]. I'm once again blown away by this music.
Some people say that really good music is still being made today and you just have to really look for it, but I have heard nothing that even comes close. Not trying to start an argument either ... if you know of anything good and new, let me know please. Until then, I'll keep listening to these classics!
my week: Monday: Listen to rush. Tuesday: Listen to rush. Wednesday: pee, listen to rush. Thursday: someone doesn't like rush. Friday: find out who they are. Saturday: My visit at the hospital. >:D
@thugofire The ones who think they know what's best for us are the Democrats. Unfortunately most "Democrat" civilians have no idea what their party stands for. This is just one of their negatives. Time to start learning everyone.
@HughGWrekshin You got that right and also too: Dems are a wild and wacky bunch, pinning their morals on modern day thoughts and not on personal convictions... They fight for the lives of serial rapists and murders on Death Row while embracing the freedom to murder unborn children... Many are atheists hating Christians because they think they know whats best for humanity and yet the atheist-- LIBERAL-- thinks the US government knows what's best... Liberals are walking contradiction.
Never has there been a band that can write lyrics like this and play instruments like this all together to create such a sound... that is why rush is the best band in the world
Yeah, you know whats even more pathetic than the cowardly bully leading a witchhunt, it's the pansy-assed beta male hiding behind him cheering him on. It's really very sad and pathetic.
I remember tearing through their catalog trying to find the first 2 parts to fear. (The Weapon, and The Enemy Within) and later ... much later Freeze.
Rush is very cool. Their songs are never the typical sex driven, heartache-broken,I'm gonna get you for leaving me, hurt you for betraying me, why don't you love me, notice me, reward me, help me, save me type content...instead they sing about observation and human experience in science, religion, psychology, sociology, anthropology, etc.
@Denizitohmp its a great cover i have machine heads new album its brilliant but their cover of this song in my opinion is lacking dynamics :O but over it its kick ass
It doesn't get no better than Rush.....a remarkable group and also tremendous talent.World class ...to say the least!And I'm young...I know this shit is real:-)
@CHROLOLUCIFER1 I hope and pray the young ones among us remember this. Of course Rush is world class. And of course this shit is real. Canadian ones they remain. This song goes way beyond us, current life? I could offer Spanish Inquisition. Fear walk hand in hand. May I offer their 600 songs or so? Saw these 3 guys 04/2011, perfectly man I am to say I shed tears over them, watched young ones among me ask if I know of their talent. I did.
They say there are strangers who threaten us, Our immigrants and infidels. They say there is strangeness to danger us In our theatres and bookstoreshelves,
That those who know what's best for us Must rise and save us from ourselves.
Quick to judge, Quick to anger, Slow to understand Ignorance and prejudice And fear walk hand in hand. will. Madmen fed on fear and lies To beat and burn and kill.
The night is black, without a moon. The air is thick and still. The vigilantes gather on The lonely torchlit hill. Features distorted in the flickering light, Faces are twisted and grotesque. Silent and stern in the sweltering night, The mob moves like demons possesed. Quiet inconscience, calm in their right, Confident their ways are best. The righteous rise With burning eyes Of hatred and ill will.Madmen fed on fear and lies To beat and burn and kill.
"The night is black, without a moon. The air is thick and still. The vigilantes gather on... The lonely torchlit hill." Look at thoughs lyrics, listen to thoughs lyric's and dont tell me that doesn't instantly set one of the coolest settings in a song ever. I bet thissong was inspired by their earlier gloomy song... the necromancer pure gold music right there
@melkorsring Learn nothing do we? This offering has NOTHING to do with "a witch". Simply how humans treat each other, nothing more. I have no idea why we can't learn. Asked this very question all my life I have. Me, tiny white 1, and? Your point would be?

@imepic1234 Your Dad must be noticing what I am of late. Music is an art form in dire need of repair. There are those offering good things of late, but no ROCK/CLASSICAL mix. This is hands down the best form of music. Rock begs one to foot to pedal, classical brings a tear from a grown man's eye?
I would say this should be the theme for the Blair Witch Project,but it would be like putting gold on a piece of crap. Obviously the rush song being the gold.
@IntoBlueMemories May I offer when I saw these 3 fine gentleman I was astounded as to the crowd. 3-4 generations were there. Kid beside me asked if I had seen them before? I smiled and said yes. His mom said I taught him well. I did not know these people, however we all regardless of age stood in awe of these guys. 12 year-old kid beside me sung these songs word-for-word. There is hope.
@superunt43 That's awesome. They really are a band passed through generations, and they've already lasted longer than (correct me if I'm wrong) any other group from that era. And by "lasted," I don't mean "are still playing." By "lasted" I mean "still play and sound amazing." Because let's face it- no other band from '74 still sounds so good.
@IntoBlueMemories 04/02 of this year, the guys bothered to grace Greensboro, NC with Time Machine. May I humbly offer they only get better, much as a fine wine.
@epona6 So then I assume you understand? I remain perfectly man enough to admit I shed tears watching these guys 04/02 in Greensboro, NC. Watching these guys do such wonderful music, make fun of themselves, Geddy admit they are "old band" with 600 songs or so and need an intermission? Personally hope they live forever and perform forever, at least until 2112, LOL.
All of the bands that you mentioned were good in their own right. They all had unique sounds. I loved Queen and Styx. ELO was good but they sold their souls to POP. RUSH on the other hand marched to their own drummer. They still do. At 50+ those three guys still put out relevant, rocking good music. Geddy's voice isn't the same but either is Erickson's blinding guitar riffs. Peart still has it. But the thing is they still Rock and Roll. Love em.
@superunt43 Good point. But then I think art rises above our mortal classifications... like pop, rock, alternative... ELO is not so easy to categorize I think. Just art in the form of music, just like Rush and this song.
Three guys made all this sound. Geddy Lee on Bass and keyboards, Eric Liefson on Guitars and the fabulous Neil Peart percussion. No band has come close to sounding this good in all of the history of hard rock. Just three Guys put out this sound. Amazing
@Ozgard13 There are 2 bands I do so dearly love, Rush and Queen. Hard choice for me to give nod to Rush. What you say is reason I give nod to Rush. I loved Freddie and Brian May. Best form of music in the world is mix of rock and classical. Takes much talent to do this. I could offer ELO and Kansas in this respect, however. I could offer Styx, loved all these bands. Rush gets the nod from me. I am severe critic of talent. I would however have to say I do so love Brian's unique sound as to guitar
read this.once u started there is no turni back. a little 10 year old girl was raped and murdured in 1945. her body was not found untill 1947.then a boy last week read this and did not copy and paste this message. the dead girl appeared in his room haunting him and killed him. if ou do not copy and paste this onto 10 videos in 30 minutes the dead girl will appear in your room tonight and haunt you and kill you. well you better start to copy and paste if you want to be safe
If we don't consider the possibility that the ones who disliked may have clicked that button as a mistake, we are nothing better than the "Vigilantes" Rush warned us about. That goes exactly the opposite to the spirit of the song.
I'd rather place the responsibilities on Google for not adding a confirmation popup for the dislike function.
@DeftCrowMk3 Oh yeah, good point (it was only a joke, though). Replacing the rating system with a lame-ass 'like/dislike' seesaw was a shining example of fixing what isn't broken.
But I still stand by my "If Rush were all Canada had to offer the world, that would be enough to make it a great nation" theory.
@bobmarleyisgod1 lol ahaha okay you got book 2 as rush's best song?? you clearly havent listened to all of rush's music. do yourself a favor and listen to the song grand designs, you might not get it at first maybe a few listens and then the sounds will click. listen to 2:40 of that song. now that is RUSH
@baconpoptarts Dictatorship (the current administration), censorship (political correctness), blatant discrimination in the name of tolerance. Yeah, that's the "United" States of America for you.
I love the picture closest, it pretty much shows how silly christianity is. Think about that, religion has actually convinced people that there is an invisible man in the sky judging us at all time. Amaizing, and Hitler was a madman.
just one of many"" HOW THE HELL DID HE DO THAT""moments..I was a teenager when this came out...I saw this show live...today i'm 47years old...""THANK YOU GOD FOR LIFE,THANK YOU GOD FOR DRUMS,THANK YOU GOD FOR RUSH....
@SweetestMalefacia i think they did that on purpose, and that's supposed to be the senseless mob portrayed by the song. or maybe I'm just not hearing it.
@1lovevideos1 lol, I'm old and had to go look it up.. check it out...
"At the beginning, the “mob sounds” were in fact the band layering sounds they made while drinking outside the studio in the snowy winter." Cool!! I was sorta close...
@mikesweet69 because all they want is bands with drug problems and such....btw, WE are the hall of fame so they have been in our hearts and mind ever since ....don't worry they are our band and not Thier's.
@williamcook95 Really? I don't think they belong. And I'm *fond* of this band. In my humble opinion, I think they lack the "soul" Also, KISS has no place in the HoF.
This song is so effin' good it brings tears to my eyes, makes my hair stand up on end, and gives me tingles in my naughty no-no places. Rush simply amazes me.
I discovered Moving Pictures at the same time I did Screaming for Vengeance and Number of the Beast. And while I love the whole album, Witch Hunt has always been my favorite, lyrically and musically. It engages Peart's love of wordplay and the band's skill for creating mood in the music perfectly for me.
It has inspired every aspect of my overall songwriting for years. A perfect rush song in my opinion.
I first heard this on the Snakes and Arrows Live DVD. I had no idea it was off of moving pictures... must have been their matured sound misleading me...
@deerdestroyer2009 I'm with you on that one, my dad has seen them on the GUP tour, Presto, Test for Echo, and Vapor Trails( I was with him for that one). I wish I could have seen them on all of their tours, oh well that's the curse of being born in 1990, missing all the good live music.
@deerdestroyer2009 you could have just went to the Time Machine Tour from last year it was the first time they played the full Moving Pictures album Live
Quick to judge, quick to anger, slow to understand,
Ignorance and prejudice and fear walk hand in hand.
Nobody writes lyrics like Peart. My fave of all time.

@epona6 So then I assume you understand? I remain perfectly man enough to admit I shed tears watching these guys 04/02 in Greensboro, NC. Watching these guys do such wonderful music, make fun of themselves, Geddy admit they are "old band" with 600 songs or so and need an intermission? Personally hope they live forever and perform forever, at least until 2112, LOL.

All of the bands that you mentioned were good in their own right. They all had unique sounds. I loved Queen and Styx. ELO was good but they sold their souls to POP. RUSH on the other hand marched to their own drummer. They still do. At 50+ those three guys still put out relevant, rocking good music. Geddy's voice isn't the same but either is Erickson's blinding guitar riffs. Peart still has it. But the thing is they still Rock and Roll. Love em.

@Ozgard13 May then I beg question as to ELO "The Jungle?" Pop, well, maybe, good art my friend.
superunt43 5 months ago
@superunt43 Good point. But then I think art rises above our mortal classifications... like pop, rock, alternative... ELO is not so easy to categorize I think. Just art in the form of music, just like Rush and this song.

Three guys made all this sound. Geddy Lee on Bass and keyboards, Eric Liefson on Guitars and the fabulous Neil Peart percussion. No band has come close to sounding this good in all of the history of hard rock. Just three Guys put out this sound. Amazing

@Ozgard13 There are 2 bands I do so dearly love, Rush and Queen. Hard choice for me to give nod to Rush. What you say is reason I give nod to Rush. I loved Freddie and Brian May. Best form of music in the world is mix of rock and classical. Takes much talent to do this. I could offer ELO and Kansas in this respect, however. I could offer Styx, loved all these bands. Rush gets the nod from me. I am severe critic of talent. I would however have to say I do so love Brian's unique sound as to guitar

If we don't consider the possibility that the ones who disliked may have clicked that button as a mistake, we are nothing better than the "Vigilantes" Rush warned us about. That goes exactly the opposite to the spirit of the song.
I'd rather place the responsibilities on Google for not adding a confirmation popup for the dislike function.

@DeftCrowMk3 Oh yeah, good point (it was only a joke, though). Replacing the rating system with a lame-ass 'like/dislike' seesaw was a shining example of fixing what isn't broken.
But I still stand by my "If Rush were all Canada had to offer the world, that would be enough to make it a great nation" theory.

I discovered Moving Pictures at the same time I did Screaming for Vengeance and Number of the Beast. And while I love the whole album, Witch Hunt has always been my favorite, lyrically and musically. It engages Peart's love of wordplay and the band's skill for creating mood in the music perfectly for me.
It has inspired every aspect of my overall songwriting for years. A perfect rush song in my opinion.
