How wonderful and touching that Rush did this with a couple of friends who knew how important this song and band is to Canada and Rush fans everywhere. They did bring this closer to theirs and our hearts; and if that isn’t what music can do, I don’t know anything. Love to them all and gold rings on all of them for treating Neil with such tenderness and total band and crew support. There is no tighter group than Rush, and when they are in the pipe going full tilt, it’s a thing to behold.

[@harolddeparis6870]

I worked with Canadians and liked them much. Canadians are cool and smart (generally speaking :). No kidding, I mean it. I loved Rush in the 70's and rediscover them now that I am retired thanks to the internet magic. I always considered them as very gifted musicians. This song is awesome. Well done Rush and Canada :)

[@Unfnation]

Perhaps the kindest band in the history of music. If you know these guys they were being sweet because of the love in their hearts. Going and playing with Rush isn't a big deal except for two things. I love that they could take an hour out of a work day and just give it to a friend of my friend. I bring my C game because how cool is that? Uncle Geddy uncle Alex and the Professor, brudding with mysteriousness byhine the hallowed kit. Ed and Mike. What ever happens in their lives they can know they are loved. Here is the recorded proof. And that my friends brings us Closer To The Heart.

[@sactownbeast9162]

This is one of the best renditions of this song I've ever heard

[@wolfie316781]

This is awesome bubbles and Ed Robinson kicking ass with Rush lol

[@peteturney2732]

My favorite version of the song. The harmonies with Ed just bring it to life. Don’t know why Rush didn’t do this a lot more.

[@hamptonbrindle7003]

My guess is Bubbles walked through a sewer pipe to be in this.

[@jonnalfaro3623]

Yeah. Julian and Ricky sent Corey and Trevor to the studio with dope to sell and they lost it. So fun fact, Julian and Ricky are waiting in a different room in said studio to sell dope.

[@tmage01]

Nice to see these guys actually playing this tune again. I'm sure they were sick of it but excluding it from their live shows wasn't right, IMO. When it's one of your bands biggest hits and is the song that really made you then you should play it for the people that pay their hard earned cash to see Rush. Much love for the band though, they seem like genuinely good people.

[@stephenebdell5968]

This is CLASS MUSIC from my youth

[@ScottMacLeodCompany]

I don't know who these guys are playing with Rush, but this is the best version of Closer to the heart I've heard. It's got the added grit the song lacked.

[@bogulans2897]

The guy with big glasses is Bubbles from the tv show called Trailer Park Boys, as I've read your comment I reckon you don't know it. As I was reading back recently, Rush was close with this show, thus one of the character from this show. There is literally an episode called "Closer to the heart", season 3, episode 5, definietely recommend to watch it to get the grasp of what's going on

[@Cogito3]

@@bogulans2897 yessirrrr they're who put me onto this song. love it. i like the orginal only because you can hear the lyrics better. if it was mastered with the original lyrics it would be MINT

Awesome!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💪🏻💪🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻

[@markmudryk6881]

The One with the glasses is Mike Smith who plays Bubbles on the Showcase television show The Trailer Park Boys, the other is Ed Robertson who is lead guitarist and singer for the Canadian band Barenaked Ladies. The origin of this performance is to have Canadian legends join their heros Rush who are also Canadian legends, Bubbles is a fan of Rush on the Trailer Park Boys.

[@enriquegutierrez186]

Thanks!​@@markmudryk6881for the info...so appreciated!. Good for the guys, and what an unforgettable experience!!

Didn't know Rush. Till I bought Cronicles. Strange but Closer to the heart felt like I heard the song before then.
