A nice rendition of Panacea. This duo also does other covers too.

This instrumental of his is quite nice.

 

 

Very nice. Just enough deviations from the originals to make it interesting. Man, I would I could fingerpick like that!

The 8 Bit Hemispheres aside, I think this is my favorite so far ... makes me wonders why RUSH ignored this song - I wish they would have put it on Caress Of Steel instead of I Think I'm Going Bald

I wish they would've put it alongside I Think I'm Going Bald!

Jacob Moon's (I think that's his name) acoustic version of Subdivisions is pretty good. Rush themselves were impressed. That's the highest praise possible

 

Yeah it's this one. Pretty damn good and original way to perform the song.

Here's Nelly Furtado's infamous Time Stand Still.

You know, this is the first I am even hearing of this cover. So I went to YouTube intending to listen and to read the comments (which I already knew would be priceless). I just could not get myself to hit that "play" button, but the comments were pretty funny. :)

It was the worst Rush cover I've ever heard. It sounded like the theme music to some shitty 80s teen tv drama...especially the "freeze this moment..." part: I imagined the crappy, teeny bop actors/actresses giving their signature pose smiling to the camera as their real names flash.

 

The live version she does for it is completely different. I had never heard this studio version. The live version is pretty good.

That is not half bad. Wow what a difference. A little Duran Duran/Rush mashup. I wonder if the kids in the audience have a clue. If I had been to her concert not knowing she did the song I'd Tai Shan my pants!

Nope, still does nothing for me. It's a wimpified version of a song that was light to begin with. It's not as bad as the studio version but I could've still done without it.

Back in the 80's there was a GREAT band hugely talented... in Central Jersey, Prophet.... did all sorts of prog rock but the ONLY band that did Rush. And did Rush to. the. T!
