Rush really created a masterpiece with this song with its beautiful melody and intricate timing during the mid-section, all finished off with a passionate guitar solo from Alex that sets off a tingle at the back of the neck.
This is a cover of Mission, from the 1987 album, Hold Your Fire. It was made by the co-ordinated effort of five musicians spread over four different countries and two continents, Canada, The Netherlands, the UK and the USA.
Although we realise we will never be able to completely emulate the fantastic music produced by the source of our inspiration (Rush), we sincerely hope you enjoy our cover and that it also inspires you to go out and buy the CD and/or pick up an instrument and learn the song for yourself.

What is wrong with everyone? If there was no Geddy and I heard this song, I would say it rocks. Besides who else can sound like Geddy, well just Geddy. Likewise, only Peart/Lifeson sound like, well them. Great, Great effort and would love to hear an original from this group. Very talented as I have played for 20 years and know talent when I hear it.
ok... vocalist... NO. guitar sounds good enough. bass guitar... I admit I´ve got a problem to imagine women playing bass but this is fair enough. but the drummer is the best!
My god, this singer MUST be stopped. He took a beatutiful song and mutilated it. I got up to the first "hold your fire" before youtube stopped streaming. Giving me a chance to his pause, so i can type this and not have to listen to this guy. I am tempted to report this guy to Geddy, so Geddy can have a laugh too

I'm sure Geddy Lee would be proud of this beautiful version of this beautiful song.
So shut it!
