presto123 Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 Forgive me if this has been brought up before but I haven't seen it on here. Listen to the Anarchist loud. At :28 and :35 the "what do you lack" is whispered again. How did I miss this? It's so low in the mix it's not hard to miss. I actually wish it was higher in the mix. Who else besides me didn't notice? Maybe it's my musician ears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trenken Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 Yeah did not notice that. It's so tucked into the background. Very easy to miss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lerxster Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 Yes, on my basement stereo system I do hear it coming out of the left speaker. My right speaker is spotty anyway. But yes, there it is. what do you lack. I believe Snaked pointed this out a week ago, and I got confused because it was morning and thought he was talking about the title track, and I killed his thread.

J2112YYZ Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 I usually listen to the album on my headphones so I noticed it during my first few listens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HowItIs Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 I missed those, too. I heard the first one just before the drums come in but not those two. Cool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OGr8imL84AD8inF8sBlackSedan Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 I was just listening to Carnies and from 3:28-3:31 you can very faintly hear Geddy screaming something that sounds like yeeeeeeeeees just before "How I tried just to get away".

bluefox4000 Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 I caught it on headphones. Kinda did a double take. Cool though. Mick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pedro2112 Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 I first noticed this a few days ago, but I didn't know what he was saying. I couldn't make it out, and I was going to make a post asking if anyone knew what he was saying. It's in the initial instrumental part in which mirrors the part after the first verse that has the "telephone effect" vocal on it. Cool stuff.

losingit2k Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 Yeah, I've heard it, Actually, Geddy anticipates the rhythm with the base prior to the actual whisper. Then the voice doubles on the bass rhythm. Its just more of what we Love about RUSH! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of little goodies bouncing around in the cans. Headphones are always the way to go. I rarely ever listen to an album for the first time any other way. You just can't hear everyting that's going on in a song otherwise. It's especially true when listening to an album the first few times. You just get a better feel and initial impression of the music that way. "What do you lack?" Edited June 24, 2012 by J2112YYZ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pedro2112 Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 What is extremely cool is that when he says "what do you lack," it mirrors the part of the song after the first verse where the Anarchist specifically states what he lacks (i.e. smiles, diamonds, love, yada yada yada). Pretty Cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
