I FEEL SMALL! Rush - YYZ | First Time Reaction

[@jp-johnson-writer]

If you watch the Live in Rio version, the Crowd is SINGING to an instrumental.

[@gerryweed7697]

😎👍

[@robutubemacarthur]

please please please watch the audience connect! ( add it in now)

[@kimbarry4674]

And moshing like they're in a pit....it's so fantastic❤🇨🇦

[@robutubemacarthur]

really like to know the psychology of the crowd interaction. something we risk losing as venues close.

[@GeraldMorgan-xv8km]

The fact that the audience was singing blew Rush’s minds

[@Alberto_1965_BR]

Live in Rio is the best version of YYZ "You can´t sing along an instrumental song!" Rio crowd: "Hold my caipirinha..."

[@miconis123]

Even if there were lyrics, it wouldn't be in their native language. Crazy Brazilians lol

[@pt9167]

LMAO 🤣

[@stevem-h3562]

True. Those Brazilian fans are f**kin' nuts!!!!

[@Mark_T_23]

YYZ is the call letters for the Toronto airport. The band is playing the morse code for those letters at the beginning and throughout the song.

[@Brewnoe]

rynd ann?

[@WalterBenkel]

That is right. And it's pronounced Y Y Zed. Canadian.

[@MauriceCalis]

@@WalterBenkel I thought it's pronounced Yizz, haha

[@SteveMavronis]

Thanks never knew it was the Morse code!

[@MarkMay-cr6bv]

@@SteveMavronis Alex Lifeson was on a plane flying into Toronto. A VHF omnidirectional range system at the airport broadcasts the YYZ identifier code in Morse code. Lifeson heard it, the rhythm stuck in his head and the song was born.

[@iMacMan54]

Now, you need to re-visit the song, but do the live version done in Rio. Mind blowing. The crowd actually sings the melody.

[@a.j.pinckney88]

"This. Is. Art." ... Perfectly said.

[@RCGC01]

I am actually crying watching your reaction. I have listened to this album since 1982 and it still blows me away

[@kgbigticket]

I totally did as well

[@brianglassey1537]

ME TOO! This song has always given me goosebumps. Like EVERY time I hear it. Watching someone else connect with it for the first time and obviously have the same reaction was super cool to watch.

[@dougim]

I like many of their albums-I think _Clockwork Angels_ is amazing-but this is a masterpiece.

[@kellydelay18]

Saw the concert for this album

[@thomasmyers1664]

Likewise!

[@jeffk1482]

“We’re just going to sit in silence…and admire the art.” Absolutely.

[@Heathcoatman]

A perfect example of how Rush has 3 guys all playing solos and it coming together as a cohesive song. Very rare.

[@user-xd1ze4jf6e]

Primus and Tool probably round out the trifecta

[@nickavenoso7851]

Rush were one of the only bands I know that were able to write instrumentals that felt like they had distinct sections instead of just being an opportunity to shred or show off. While they obviously do show off their chops in this, it isn’t overwhelming.

[@KyleS.1987]

I absolutely love the way Geddy plays while Alex is soloing. I'm a bass player myself, and my first instinct is to simplify my playing when someone else is soloing, but if you're a beast like Geddy or Geezer Butler you can actually increase the complexity of your line and elevate the music that much more.

[@mattc.]

I just saw a great story today about how Robert Plant and Jimmy Page from Led Zeppelin helped Neil Peart through his time of losing his daughter and wife. Robert Plant could relate because of the loss of his son. And the fact that they reached out when Neil Peart passed away. It was nice to see such a relationship between two bands.❤❤ I love watching your reactions❤❤ I am blessed to have grown up when I did and the great music I got to enjoy❤❤

[@gregbyrne743]

Totally agree BUT Rush fans continue to put Peart as the God and Bonham as the servant. Why the hate ? Don’t get it.

[@mattc.]

@@gregbyrne743 any real expert will tell you that Bonham was the god of thunder and Neil Peart was the precise meticulous musician. They both had great respect for each other and their different styles. You're right those are just haters.

[@marctownsend8798]

Enjoyed the review. Well done. It's great to find a performance that wears you out. There are some artists and pieces of music that take a lot out of me. This is one of them.

[@lindaward5376]

The composition of YYZ resembles the hustle and bustle of travelling through a busy airport, with a short pause in the middle to reunite with friends and family before going right back to the hustle and bustle. As mentioned countless times above, the Live In Rio performance is an absolute must-see. Have a great evening, and Rush on! 🎤 🎹 🎸 🥁 🎸 🔥 🔥 🔥

[@NM-tr6kq]

… and the middle eastern sounding guitar solo representing the airport as gateway to exotic far away places. Truly a masterpiece. Right up there with La Villa Strangiato.

ALWAYS listen to Rush(as you are) with studio versions 1st. Get to know the song a bit then move onto the live versions to see how amazing they truly were

[@bananabrooks3836]

Absolutely, well spoken.

[@ryanbeckett1175]

I'd say studio version first for all Rush, except for 2112 go with the graphic art storyline version.

[@Slugbug]

Meh, I enjoy that version of 2112 but I don't think it needs to be the first version heard. I didn't come across the graphic art version until about 6 months ago, but I had similar images running through my head since I first heard it. The lyrics tell the story without the need for the images. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy the images, but the studio version is just fine without them.

[@55montypython]

There is little difference between the studio and live. Incredible

[@sandstonestudiollc4126]

As a life long Rush fan, WELCOME! They really are incredible.

Not only they are three, but Geddy plays bass… and he plays keyboards and vocals!

[@jmsmooch]

You get it…

[@RenRabbitHole]

I'm not that guy that says "you watched the wrong version", but the Live in Rio version of this song IMHO is the best live video of any band ever. There is enough joy in that audience to heal the world 😀

[@louiszagone6730]

No! A new person hearing this for the first time should be focused on the awesomeness of the band and the music, not the awesomeness of a crowd. That can come later after one becomes familiar with the Band.

[@lechiffre5078]

The long version indeed with Peart's mind blowing drum solo from exit stage left. Trust us.

[@richardtucker4903]

Yep, the exit stage left version...... judt played it for a refresh 😊

[@MrAitraining]

Studio first. Focus on the technique. Rio is fun but Rio goes nuts for everyone. They are crazy in a good way though

[@bobrouse8634]

​@lechiffre5078 - the Live in YYZ version is good as well.

[@philstone3859]

YYZ is definitely up with the greatest songs ever. You are a RUSH GIRL now! No question about it. 😁

[@ecurewitz]

Best song in their catalog

[@domenictagliola534]

YYZ (that's "zed" as us Canadians would pronounce it) is the airport code for Toronto. They are actually playing YYZ in morse code at the beginning of the song

[@charlesgervais4673]

Yes, Canadians pronounce it Zed, but growing up in Neil's hometown and listening to Toronto rock radio, it was always YYZee.

[@TheAlanSandersShow]

Rush is tied with Pink Floyd as one of my all-time favorite bands. You are only just scratching the surface of the musical journey that will take you on an amazing adventure. I'm just happy to have found your channel so I get to enjoy watching someone discover the band I fell in love with back when I was in 6th grade. Rush (like Floyd) was the soundtrack to my life and I am so happy to see people discover them, even after they have ended as a trio.

[@axandio]

That's what happens.

[@rushfan9thcmd]

Then youd love, The Rush Tribute Project and Britt Floyd. The Tribute Project returns next month. We saw Britt Floyd again over the summer. They are both amazing tribute bands. Zepparella does a great job covering Zeppelin.

[@davidvalderrama1816]

The exact reaction you should have. When three musicians who LOVE music come together, this happens. Very rare.

[@fgs2732]

And they love each other. Best Friends till the end. All moneys were split in 3 ways, regardless of who wrote the songs.

[@riveralph3687]

Your face told the story perfectly throughout this classic and brilliant Rush instrumental. It was like you were held in a breathless trance until the really funky guitar chords came in, then you let it out and were clearly gobsmacked. Glad you heard the audio version first for a perfect reference, but indeed check out the Rush In Rio Live video version!

[@DavidNeale-d9y]

I am a drummer when this came out i locked myself in.a room with my drums and learned this album those where the best times of my life thank you to.my parents for supporting me

[@toddashton9696]

Thanks for getting to this iconic song by Rush. As many have mentioned the Rio live performance is simply amazing and well worth watching (even if you don't publish a reaction). There is a lot of greatness to appreciate in this song, which makes it satisfying to come back to and experience something new in the Bass / Drums or Guitar. I still enjoy hearing this after 40 + years. Looking forward to The Camera Eye reaction next.

[@Brian-x1]

Love your reactions. Rush still blows my mind 40 plus years on. Would be great if you also did some live performances as well so you can see how awesome they are live - maybe add it on after the studio version.

[@jasonremy1627]

I love this instrumental so much. It's a perfect composition. Let me also join in the chorus of others that say to add the Live In Rio version to watch at a later date when you have the time. It is, bar none, the wildest crowd I've ever seen for a live performance. Three dudes have like 100,000 people in the palm of their hands and they play them like another instrument. It's insane.

[@Berliozioz]

Neil's bass-drum pedal is operating at peak-Peart on this one.

[@johntrickey7182]

[@michaelschroeck2254]

3:19 that shatter sound was made by slamming a piece of plywood onto a wooden stool. In the liner notes Neil is credited as playing “ plywood.”

[@tomr6090]

Yes sir, playing plywood! Who'd a ever thunk it! Even in one of ANY possible worlds!

[@brentwalker8596]

Lol. Nice. I never knew that or even thought about how Neil made that sound. I assumed it was something in his kit.

[@MegaSnowdog69]

Are you sure? In an interview or article around that time, Neil said it was a Chinese cymbal that he paid $10k for (a lot of money back then). He took it on the MP tour and broke it. By the time ESL came out (near the end of the tour) he substitutes 3 hits on a more traditional cymbal

I personally fell in love with the YYZ version from their next album, Exit Stage Left, which was their second live album. This has the amazing drum solo by Neil Peart.

[@cvn6555]

They were flying in a small plane back to Toronto at the end of a tour and they heard the airport broadcasting it's call sign "YYZ" in morse code on the radio. They just looked at each other and were like, "Yup, that's gonna be a song". Typical story for Rush. So many layers, so much intelligence, so much raw effing talent.

It is Full On, Maximum Vibe, High Energy, RUSH Night! They Went Off!! Made us North Americans fan look lazy. 😆

[@cozmicpfunk]

I love YYZ: it's a Prog Jazz Fusion Extravaganza! Rush on top of their game

[@cozmicpfunk]

Also keep in mind something about these guys is that they were very imaginative and creative and didn't have restrictions or limits about music and their music. All of them were self taught as teenagers and came together as friends (Alex and Geddy) with the desire to play to a standard as their mentors (example Genesis and Yes). So when Neil came along, they had someone to grow with musically without any limits, all creative to do what they loved and wanted too. They made the music they loved, regardless of the pressure to be commercial :)

[@marcsorensen1184]

Another amazing subliminal aspect of this song is the changing styles within the song, like Alexs solo that sounds middle eastern, and its because airports have people from all over the world going through them..coming and going..so the song has different feels to it as a result. Thats the brilliance of Rush. Their music can be taken for just the music itself..or it can be interpreted in an emotionally connected way. When you listen to Neils lyrics they tell a story that you get sucked into. The Trees..a song about oak and maple trees fighting over sunlight is far deeper on a social level than as just a song.

[@RumorHazi]

What a great review! I saw them seven times and each time I felt the same way. What a gift they are to the world! Thank you for your humble review and comments. It is uncommon these days. Glad to have found your channel. New subscriber!

I think you being speechless for the entire song makes for a pretty strong analysis in and of itself.

[@mikemusialowski4473]

Thank you! You nailed it. I was 14 when this came out. Bought the vinyl, still have it. It was the "deep cut" on Moving Pictures that only peeps who bought the record would know. It was (among other classic rock tunes) an introduction to orchestral arrangement, to movements of a symphony, to radical expansion of sounds from one instrument (Lifeson's guitar). You are right.. only the masters could conceive of such a journey. You are virtually never bored in this tune. The story it tells is complete, a full narrative appetizer, main course, dessert, coffee/tea/liqueur for your ears.

[@dmntd1]

LOVE this song!! It just effortlessly jams. I never really was into Rush as a kid (49 now), but beginning to discover this and many other bands I knew of, but never explored. It's great!! I agree though... this is like a real nice car you only get out on the perfect days. 😉 And the Morse code is just a mind blower.

The first time I saw RUSH was around 1977 sometime after the release of fly by night, I had not heard of them, they were one of the two opening acts. Being a aspiring young drummer I was floored. I think they opened for Billy Squire I was a fan of the band he was in earlier named Piper

Rush is my favorite band of all time. YYZ from their live album “Exit Stage Left” was the very first song I was introduced to them by. I was just starting to learn the drums.
