Well, here's an odd one... ;) It was requested by one of you... so here it is! It's a fun song on the drums and it shows another side of Neil which appears on the same album: the lyricist saviour for Rush! The lyrics of this song were written by Geddy and well, it's not much of a literature masterpiece... ;) So, thanks Neil! I did not spend much time learning that song so it's not quite perfect but enjoy this 33 years oldie anyway!

  • More interesting then John's ver tho. more fills, nice job astro :)

  • @IslandWreck This is Neil's version, from "Fly By Night".

  • @Astrotama I do believe it was Rutseys song yea? there is an old old vid of just Ged, alex and John playing, well before fly by night, eh I may be wrong

  • @IslandWreck Indeed, that song was created and played before Neil joined the band. I don't know why they never put it on the 1st album and waited instead to put it on Fly By Night. That is the version I play on the video.

  • how do u learn all these rush songs?

  • @philsrh0809 By listening! I usually listen to a song over and over again, learning the drumming parts visually in my head. I never learn a song by first sitting on the kit; that would be too frustrating for me. After I get a good idea on how to play it, then I sit down at the kit and just rehearse it until it becomes automatic and I can play it without any background music, just by playing the song in my head. For some fills, I need to stop and figure out the sticking on the kit. That's all!

  • Great job man! Out of every Rush song ever recorded, this has always been and always will be, my favorite Rush "drum" song! I don't care that Neil's kit and technique is light years better now, this is what kick-ass rock drumming is all about to me! Awesome! Now do 'Beneath Between Behind!' :-)

  • The 3 people who gave this a dislike will hopefully get run over by Red Barchettas.
