Man ... this song. This song right here singlehandly got me through the remaining years of school. Rush taught me that it was OK to be different, that nothing was wrong with going against the "norm" and to not simply allow yourself to fall into a certain group to feel acceptance, all the while denying who you truly are within your own self. Rush made it OK to not have to be "cool" to standout on your own which in itself is "cool" too. Thank you Neil, Geddy, and Alex for making me comfortable in my own skin during the most brutal times of a teenager's years.

That's the thing. I was the ultimate outsider in high school, desperate to fit in with a whole bunch of people who would not have me in their clique. And these guys, with songs like this just said "hey, be yourself". Occasionally I'd run into people from high school after graduation and it was remarkable how unremarkable those "cool" people were in the aftermath of their high school glory years. The thing that I didn't get about this song in '82-'84 was the prediction that everyone would fall prey to the pressures of the homogenization, rat races and ticking traps of adult life. And then hoping to go back to the security of the nice manicured lawns and quiet streets away from both cities (bright lights) and country (far unlit unknown) were many of us grew up. A nowhere land devoid of character or history. Only to impose the same anxieties and pressures on our own children. As an adult I kept going back to this song so emblematic of my youth and still finding meaning. I was gratified to find a sort of sequel to this in "Middletown Dreams". We still dream.

Rush was (and is) always respected and held in the highest regard by other musicians - it was the music critics who took decades to warm to their music. Their record company was all up in their business after Caress of Steel failed commercially, and ordered them to write shorter, more "radio friendly" songs - so they promptly rolled out 2112, over 20 minutes long and taking up an entire album side. If they were gonna fail, they were gonna do it their way and go out in a blaze of glory. Instead it was a smash hit, and the record company gave them carte blanche to do whatever they wanted moving forward, and the rest, as they say, is history.

I grew up during the Gemini, Mercury, and Apollo space programs when a lot of us kids still wanted to be astronauts. Rush's song "Countdown" doesn't get a lot of attention, but was done to celebrate the first launch of the Shuttle. When that thing lit it's engines and shook the earth, everybody knew that we all were watching history being made and it was a BIG deal. Anyway, the official vid with the Shuttle being the "star" of the show gives me chills to this day. The Shuttle was badass back then, and still is (even though the Shuttle Program has all but ceased). I've been to the "Cape," and have gotten to watch a couple of launches. The raw power of it can't be put into words. Even at almost five miles away, that thing shook your soul. "First flight," landing on the Moon, to the first "re-useable" spacecraft...all in less than eighty years...that's pretty damn badass to me.

@@willrichardson519 yeah, the Cold War (plus Vietnam) always hit NASA and the other space programs pretty hard...the "manned" flights anyway. But, I do have to give tech improvements towards satellites their due. That was money well spent. Plus, we had the Space Lab orbiter, Hubble, the ISS, and various other planetary and deep space probes. This may sound a bit silly, but I believe all of the "made for TV" shows like Star Trek, Space Family Robinson, Battlestar Gallactica, and (ugh) Buck Rogers, inundating kids and young people several times a week kinda dampened a lot of the curiosity we all had. Dare I say, that all that made the prospect of Outer Space seem like an easy, "everyday," type of thing to a lot of young minds. And of course, Star Wars blew the lid off everything...at least the first three releases did (I bailed on everything after that...and Disney is well on it's way at ruining what "couldn't" be ruined). The last time the government sunk any real budget money towards anything space related were the Star Wars programs that came to be during the Reagan years. And, tech advancement grew at an astronomical (no pun intended) rate from the late seventies through the nineties. NASA, and much of the Space Program, seemed like victims of their own making. The Shuttle disasters didn't "help" things. Losing so many astronauts at one time was a HUGE punch in the gut for all of us. I also never figured I'd live to see space exploration and travel be privatized either. Ah, sign of the times I suppose...and that's not a bad thing. My hope is that the pendulum is swinging back towards manned space exploration again. Most people take the stuff for granted nowadays and don't realize just how incredibly dangerous it all is. Anyway, apologies for the long-winded diatribe lol. I appreciate your interest and taking the time to reply. Unlike most, I still find the concept of space exploration totally badass. Just think, as I've mentioned before, we've gone from the Wright Brothers "first flight" to landing on the Moon in less than eighty years...THAT amazes me.

One of my favorite songs by Rush is this one, and I was growing up when they came out. I never knew a band then or since who inspired people to play, air drums and pick up sticks TO learn to play as they. A truly amazing band. Neil Peart, a legend in his time, immortal now.

Neal did write all of the lyrics to all of their songs. Getty and Alex were close friends growing up, and then Neal joined the group later. They were all close friends as a group was made. Neal was the book reader, and so writing the lyrics came naturally to him, and so he filled the role. This dynamic of the band is why this band put out so many albums and was touring when they were in their sixties. That's why they are ledgens.

Rush, and other groups got me through that hellish time in my life, and I'm grateful to Neil for the lyrics and to Geddy and Alex and Neil for the performance and creating this incredible music, which, pushing 60, I'm still listening to today. Its a funny thing, before "Moving Pictures"...Rush was definitely a cool secret kept by a marginal fanbase. Then Moving Pictures came out and suddenly...EVERYONE loved Rush. In a way, I was damned glad for their breakthrough but in another way I was completely contemptuous of people who had the week before considered Rush a "nerd band" suddenly on fire for them. Sigh. In my defense, I was still just a kid. lol.

Not only is this the greatest song of all time, but there is so much more to this song than meets the eye. I personally know several people who have done their Ph.D. theses on RUSH and this song specifically. Aside from its OBVIOUS meaning (i.e. people who are not considered "cool" or "popular" being cast out from society), there is actually a "double meaning" to this song. The secondary meaning is the irony of people from the big city wanting to escape to where there is peace and quiet (i.e. the suburbs) yet the people from the suburbs want the "action" and want to go down to the big city to find it/experience it. Hence, we have subdivisions socially as well as geographically. It's almost the "flip side of the coin" kind of song. The more you listen to it, the more you appreciate its many, many layers and (as always) magnificent musicianship by the greatest band of all time. Not my opinion, but simply a fact of life.

U hit it on the head, Rush is unique in so many ways. Yes, Neil wrote most of the lyrics. The guy was very literate and intelligent (in addition to being a master drummer), and that;s why Rush was regarded as the "thinking man's rock band". Couple that with the unique musical arrangement and writing, and there is a lot to unpack with this band. Their uniqueness, talent, and creativity is why they lasted for 40 years.

No girl friend, no real "Normal" friends. Never went and did things with people...just a total loner. Subdivisions saved me. It's that simple. (Years later, Test for Echo saved me again.)

After joining the band after their debut album, Neil wrote almost all of the lyrics. There were a couple of lyrical collaborations with his friend Pye Dubois (including the mega hit "Tom Sawyer"). Geddy and Alex each took a turn at lyrics on side 2 of "2112" (Geddy penned "Tears" and Alex wrote "Lessons"). After that, if memory serves me, Neil wrote all of the lyrics. A very intelligent guy. The nuances and sly wit in his lyrics become more apparent as you dive deeper into them. Enjoy your journey into the genius that is Rush, in all of their different periods!

Been a rush fan since the late 70s , they are master musicians and they transcend generations, total originals and extremely complex. There music is like a Hemingway novel it changes to suit your life experience. Great reaction y'all dive into some of the earlier work 2112 or even earlier it's all great

One of my favorite songs from them! Thanks for reacting and this one is from the 80's. I like Tom Sawyer, Limelight, and Superconductor as well.

*Nice reaction video!* It was actually this song, the first time I heard it years ago, where instantly I became a Rush fan for life.

Once he joined the band, Neil wrote the lyrics to every song except six and every song after 1980. Geddy wrote the lyrics and music for Different Strings on that years Permanent Waves album.

You all have to react to their full, long overdue RRHOF induction if you haven't already. They are unmatched in complexity of a power trio.

you also have to watch them perform this one. and just like "Lighted Stage" points out, Neil is the primary writer, but Geddy is the one that sings it and he has to tweak the lyrics so he can sing them.

I lived my teen years in the suburbs of Montreal, Canada. The average distance between houses was about 15 feet. By the 1980s, in Toronto's suburbs, where the boys in Rush grew up, the average distance between rooflines was 2 inches, meaning that those cookie-cutters "homes" stood less than 4 feet apart. This is part of the subtext and background of "Subdivisions".

This was the anthem of my teenaged years... hello 1982...this is a snapshot of Toronto and its suburbs in the 70s and 80s. The guys actually lived up the street from me in the mid-1970s... they handed out great halloween candy.

Neil wrote ALL the lyrics, with the exception of the first album. Neil collaborated on only a couple of tracks (Tom Sawyer for one), but it's mostly him. All 3 were misfits. Neil the lanky, nerdy reader. Geddy was the outcast due to his religion. Alex was probably the most 'cool' of the 3, but I think due to his ethnic (Serbian) background, he too was singled out (like Geddy), hence they formed a bond in Junior High School, and found music together. Neil remained the brainy one. All 3 devoted their life to perfecting their craft...together! 45+ year friendship that remains to this day (even with the loss of Neil, RIP)

Geddy and Alex have been friends since grade school, Neil is actually the 2nd drummer and joined for the 2nd album... Neil writes prob 95% of the lyrics and gets inspiration from books, especially Anthem by Ayn Rand (Rush's older stuff) Neil was the super-private one never getting used to the fame , "I can't pretend the stranger is a long awaited friend" Alex and Ged did all the meet-n-greets. 40+ years together, such a shame Neil passed....Ive seen every tour since 1984 or so

Rush fans have phases. I was in high school when the first Rush album came out. So in 1982, there was a whole group moving out and making families. Rush changing as well. Moving to Subdivisions

Except for their first album, Neal wrote the lyrics to the other 23 albums. He was very complicated, pretty amazing, and as a rush fan I think I can speak for all of us when I say we miss him greatly
