'Subdivisions' is THE SONG of my life. It changed EVERYTHING I thought about music and being a musician! My Dad gave me the 'Signals album for my 16th birthday in 1982. I had heard of Rush, but I hadn't caught the BUG yet. Some songs have to grow on you, not this one! From the second the Keyboard started I was in AWE!! When I looked at the sleeve of the record and only saw three men I couldn't believe it. This song made me a Rush fan for life. Geddy Lee's mind blowing Bass playing made me a Bassist. It taught me that not every song has to be in 4/4 time or about SEX, DRUGS, and ROCK and ROLL. It made me a better song writer. I have owned ALL of their studio albums and love all of it, but 'Subdivisions' will always be MY Rush song!! :)
@motorlife70376 жыл бұрын
Exactly, mine too, when I hear it I am back (in my case 1985, when I heard it first) the intro turns back time into my innocent teens, when I was exploring music, and this made me buy all Rush records, I just started from the first one. I become guitarist and have great respect to their creativity, now I see how complex and evolving their music is. One of these bands you just can listen to over and over. Pink Floyd is another (but I wish they were as good musicians as rush in the beginning)

People forget that in much of Rush's heyday, 1975-1995, the average North American teen could not access more complex popular music or lyrics with deeper ideas in their everyday life. So Rush was really a cultural lifeline for the more intellectual kids, especially ones that could identify some structures in the music or follow the lyrics and ideas. This was especially true if you were outside the big cities. I was in a small town without even a record store. We only had network television (later cable), top 40 radio, newspapers, and records/cassettes/8 track (no internet, Spotify, KZbin, Netflix, etc). So Rush was like a secret pathway, a shibboleth, and sometimes you'd even meet someone who had the tunes and rhythms in their psyche. A few blocks away, there was a friend and his brother (massive fans) with the sheet music, and so help me, except for the band itself, their playing was the best I had heard in an unfinished basement, with a 2112 banner in the background, in the corner of a square state somewhere in the middle of the US, deep in winter... magical

Neil Peart is the most "busy" drummer I've ever seen in my lifetime. He don't just keep a beat like a lot of drummers do, he is constantly in motion hitting his high hat, working it with his foot, and using all the other cymbals, rolling on the toms, changing the beats, etc. I didn't really pay attention as much as I have since he passed, but lately I have really been listening to a lot of Rush and watching their videos, and paying particular attention to Neil's drumming. He was a beast on the drums and in my opinion he's the best ever.

+Carlos Rafael Suzzarini You said it!This is where it all began for me. Heard this when I was 15 years old in 1982 and it was like a hammer blow. I remember thinking 2 things - who are these guys and how the hell do they know about me! Not sure what hit me first, the musical virtuosity or the lyrics. It defined me to a tee at that time. Then of course I went backwards through their catalog and moved forward with them. Been a GIGANTIC fan for 33 years and I have loved every minute!

I was at this show, great seats to the side front of the stage. It was utterly amazing. But, still not quite as good as their R40 show, which was other worldly. I've been a Rush fan since 1978, there will never be a better band in my humble opinion. RIP Neil, and thank you for all the amazing music and lyrics.

We live a short drive from Lakeside Park in Port Dalhousie that of course inspired Neil's lyrics to the song...where he worked as a teenager at the summer fair. The willows in the breeze are still there, as is the lighthouse and (newly re-constructed) pier. And now they have a new *Peart Pavilion* named in his honor at the park - a beautiful facility. RIP Neil - your legend will live on for generations. Your lyrics and rhythms were a huge part of the soundtrack of my youth and great memories.

It is great to watch Neil work that massive kit. I'll repeat what I've remember hearing during the 80s: Neil Peart may not be your favorite drummer, but there is a good chance he is your favorite drummer's favorite drummer. He was nicknamed "Professor" for good reason.

A very good Friend of mine was riding in my car on day and he asked " man do we need to listen to Rush"? I said no we don't! I pulled the car off the road and stopped. He said what are you doing? I said letting you get out and walk because I'm listening to Rush. You see it doesn't matter what anyone says about Rush good or bad. And it sure doesn't matter what is said about Geds voice. I've heard it all. But since 1974 when I 1st heard them on WMMS I was hooked. True fans who love rush as I do just don't care what anyone says about them.

It's amazing to see the enormous impact that Rush has had over the decades. From watching this amazing video, I was able to see the "old timer" debut album Rush fans that were in their 50's and 60's and then the newer generations, late teens up till early 30's. It was fucking incredible!! I myself started to get into Rush in '82 when I was 12 and never looked back. Since Neil's unfortunate passing Rush's music has meant even more to me and I would be willing to bet millions of other loyal fans!!!

Since I was born in 1973 Rush has always been one of my favorite bands and this is one of the baddest ass rock-n-roll songs of all time. It is what I would call classic rock for my generation and pretty untouchable by today's standards. I think it is insane how talented they are. Alex Lifeson is an underrated guitar player & one of the best ever.
