  • Awesome video interpretatin of this classic RUSH tune!

  • This album opened the window to who I am today.

    (And it ain't all that bad) Possibly a higher degree of perception.

  • This song is definitely resembles Ayn Rand's Anthem.

  • how can someone not like this??!!!

  • preist's are here to anally fuck you!!

  • @dhunt25 priests*

  • 4:06 Tchaikovsky win

  • this is amazing

  • You would think both parts would have the same # of views. but i guess ppl couldnt think straight after there minds exploded from Part 1.

  • @chrisaallan I guess that accounts for about 11,000 people :P

  • @runekey Metropolis Part 2: Scenes from a memory is an 1h 17minutes...and technically it can be considered as one song because it all flows

  • 480p for best sound!

  • First time I heard this song was on my friend's old 8 track hemispheres album. Loved it ever since.

  • Only rush song I know but I love it

  • sounds uncannily like 1984 by George Orwell

  • @metallyrics411 no it doesn't.

  • @OriginalDirtyHippie yes it does, the idea of the song sounds like it's been based on 1984

  • @metallyrics411 which parts? Oracle? Where the hell is the world without love in 2112? It's about oppression of MUSIC, not love. It takes place in the year 2112, not 1984. and 2112 was released in 1976, years before 1984 came out. So how could Rush copy it?

  • @OriginalDirtyHippie ha 1984 was actally released in 1948

  • @metallyrics411 Except that it's based off of Ayn Rand's "Anthem".

  • someone should make the tornado warning sirens play this whenever the world ends

  • BEST Song of RUSH but the spirit of radio of also good

  • Glee is making a Rush episode. I am already pissed since they will touch Tom Sawyer, Limelight, and probably Closer to the Heart, but so help me God if they touch 2112 I might have to kill someone.

  • The lyrics are in too light a font. Hard to see.

  • One word. EPIC!!!

  • really great vid man

  • truley the longest song ever

  • @TheTinkerbella1901 yeah man, even echoes "pink floyd" is longer

  • @TheTinkerbella1901

    It's not even the second longest. "The Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence" by Dream Theater is over twice as long as this, and DT has at least three more songs over 20 minutes.

  • @TheTinkerbella1901 not really? most songs in metal are at least 10 minutes long!

  • I grew up listening to this on cassette and I "got it" even then. Great job putting it to video thank you so much!

  • Never get tired of great Rock. When Im an old man... Rush will still be around and I will still be listening to them.

  • I love Rush, I wish i would have been born listening to them. BUUUUTTTT NOOOOOO, had to wait 13 years :(, atleast the past 4 have been filled with awesome music

  • The 0 people who disliked this were.....oh wait.

  • @Runekey You did a brilliant job with the graphics you chose for this introspective look into the depth of "2112." Thank you SO VERY MUCH.

  • 'My friend Jon always said it was nicer here than under the atmospheric domes of the Outer

    Planets. We have had peace since 2062, when the surviving planets were banded together under

    The Red Star of the Solar Federation. The less fortunate gave us a few new moons.

    I believed what I was told. I thought it was a good life, I thought I was happy. Then I found

    Something that changed it all...'

  • It has nothing to do with democrats or liberal views. You are way off track. There will never be a red star. Communists have failed. And for mr. Gelyphish, 2012 is the supposed time of the end not 2112.. Which, is total bullshit anyway.. The band RUSH is not religious and does not think or write songs in that way.

  • @jf99151 they do work as critics of religion a lot in their songs.

  • There is no more exploring the earth, nor is there inherent. We try to comfort ourselves and move on.... Love and peace. Let's get this earth sane, then we can explore. I was given the gift of life. I don't want to waste it.

  • @runekey I got the album, cd, 8 track, casette,and real to real and I have yet to discover the mystery minute. If you can find a deep throat you will come forward with it and please upload......

  • @runekey nope the song is 21 mins long not 10 there is NO gaps sorry

  • Its like a Sci-Fi Movie into a song. SOMEONE MAKE THIS INTO A MOVIE!!!!

  • seen this live it was awesome

  • Read the book "This Perfect Day". I forget the author's name. It will make u think!

  • With part 1 and 2 you did a GREAT job of explaining the actual story to oddly a magnitude of RUSH "fans" who never really got it. Thank you.

  • I jusst downloaded this mp3 at awesomemp3s..com

  • this songs deserves more credit than it has gotten over the years.. Great vid!

  • this song is suppose to be 21mintes 12 seconds long..

  • @alpinestars11bbi the song is called 2112 because that has to do with the end of the world in the bible (revelations 21:12 or something like that) it has nothing to do with the actual length of the song.

  • @Gelyphish The entire thing is a musical version of a scifi story written by Ayn Rand...enjoy!

  • 1.50 = Mickey Mouse on roids.

  • GREAT SONG

    RUSH RULES!!!!!!!!!!

  • I love RUSH, and own all albums until the turn of the century! nice/ way with the video friend!

  • I love RUSH, and own all albums until the turn of the century!

  • Best story ever told.

  • The late 70s' in west Berlin, (The wall was still up.) I was quartered in the barracks that Hitlers old SS troops used to use, built in grand style with 20 foot ceilings. In comes 'poodle' with a new album. We smoked a blunt (we called it a 'Berliner' back then) as we were sooooo blown away by what we heard. If you are young and listening to this, you are among the fortunate few that get it. A glimpse into how we got where we are now, and where we might be going. LONG LIVE RUSH 2112

  • @rappinpat I'm 14 years old i think im one of the few who were fortunate to get it. long live rush !!!!!

  • @rappinpat ha Berliner

  • @siugi2121 the proper way to smoke a "Berliner" is make fist with your right hand. You stick the blunt between your pinkie and third fingers and then the smoke between your thumb and 1st finger. (Your hand acts as a carburetor.) My younger friends laughed their asses off the first time they saw me do this, now, they won't do it any other way.

  • @hinatagirl101 sounds interesting. But the name is still funny.

  • @rappinpat man i listened to this in like grade 5 now grade 9

  • @zackjp

    It sounds like you are off to a good start in developing your music tastes. LONG LIVE ROCK-N-ROLL

  • @rappinpat Great story! First I heard this was on a old tape deck in a car in University. We smoked two and I was blown away but not by the joints. I was use to those. The music!!!

  • amazing made me realize what this song is saying and its so right thank u

  • the views of these videos dont make up for the dedication and appreceation for rush and thier greatness. great!! thanks runekey!

  • Read Anthem by Ayn Rand....it'll give you a lot better mental picture as it was the inspiration for 2112.....2112 is just an interesting twist to it.

  • what a great video.. kind of sad only 1,674 people have seen it..

  • @jommmer 3,587

  • @austic1 Yea, this video has seemed to get a lot more popular after they announced this song was going to be in Guitar Hero 6.

  • Was this when Geddy still used an SVT amp?

  • Elena Kagan

    Trogdorman121
