Rush-Cut To The Chase (Lyrics)

[@jeffreywilliams2240]

When Neil died I sat and drank Irish whiskey and listened to every RUSH album in the order they recorded them that weekend, so glad I did because I have rediscovered this record and this is my second listen in the past 5 days, long live Neil's memory and long live RUSH!

[@craigbeckman7911]

One of Rush's best albums. This song is an absolute gem. Alex's solo is a soaring masterpiece.

[@catsnuggie]

Agree.

[@Brettyification]

...and Neils syncopated hats hold the solo together

[@netsherrera7193]

Oh, hell yeah!!!

[@Hirn_und_Herz]

I agree with enthusiasm. "Counterparts" have been getting old very very well. Lyrics are very in concordance with what we live and experiencing nowadays.

[@garytull7730]

Came here after watching Rick Beato include this song on his "strangest guitar solo" list. Thanks Rick for reminding me of this forgotten gem.

[@RushianRichard]

I love the heaviness of Counterparts and this solo absolutely shreds!

[@kellygilford8637]

this tour was freaking amazing. Loved RUSH since I was a wee lad. Saw 9 tours and they got better every time. I can't say that about any other band that I have seen. RIP Professor.

[@astralwvz66]

one of their most underrated albums and one of the best tracks from it

[@SuperJS1974]

I can’t believe how incredible the guitar solo is. Holy cow

[@stratcaptain66]

Alex Lifeson is wickedly awesome!! Cut to the chase alright...his guitar cuts seriously deep. A master of many things...not to mention the soaring solo! Positively the most under rated guitarist of all time. It was nice to see him place 4th in guitar mag(or whatever mag that was) this year.

[@bellaangel2860]

Alex's solo is amazing in this one! Love it. What difference could one person make??? xx Thank you for upload. Love, light and peace to all here!!!

[@scifidudepeacelove8054]

Bella Angel thank you Bella rush said live love and dream

[@INDYASPHALT24]

Very interesting song. These guys are incredible.

[@stratcaptain66]

I came back...for another listen, I say once again Lifeson is the shit...Rush's secret weapon!

[@michellesupport89]

stratcaptain66 He definitely is. Neil is the master on the drums and Alex is extremely underrated.

[@mstmompj]

Just what I needed this morning! This would be a nice set inclusion for R40, eh?

[@peterbugarchich404]

The best track on "Counterparts" .. back to basics!

[@therealdaverice]

+Dave Rice Yes I agree

[@davidartreides3932]

The awards intros song are almost a Buddhist spiritualism to me. This song and the lyrics especially have helped me get on with my life.

[@Heavenoid]

Alex dedicated the solo to Eric Johnson as inspiration for the design of the solo. Cool.

[@HeidiMontross]

I do love that solo.

[@gilbertvidela7238]

I could be wrong but I thought Eric opened for Rush on one tour

[@ericjohnson6634]

That was a hell of a tour!

[@Ariel1Dominguez]

6 dislikes is a disgrace towards this channel. The editing was perfect. Greetings from Chile to the person that is behind this channel. I have joy because i cant understand english in songs that well by ear.

[@briandavid6879]

Cut to the chase en este contexto es una expresión que significa algo así como déjate de rodeos y toma la iniciativa, actúa, ve al grano o la cuestión de fondo con empeño y resuelto a actuar, propóntelo y actúa. Difícil de traducir pero así te haces una idea. Buenísima canción. 👍

[@dragonboy855]

gotta be one of their (neils) favorites....certainly one of mine....

[@tha_mexikan1752]

one of my fav song from the beginnning to the end this song kicks ass !!!!!!!!!!

[@jeffa6834]

Neil proved what a difference one person can make. Cut to the chase.

[@synthonaplinth5980]

That bridge is so damned POWERFUL....

[@itopal63]

2:51 to 3:17, that is one awesome lead.

[@travisstrabala5218]

One of my all time favorite Lifeson solos!

[@hdg4805]

Great song

[@fsharpmol2]

Upon solving Newsday' Monday Crossword (for May 13, 2024), ....this song title came to mind. You will notice what I mean right away. Appearing in the Washington Post's Puzzle and Games Site, under the heading "Stanley Newman's Daily Crosswords".
