YYZumbi Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 I was listening to the R30 live album just now (bluray-rip) and when the song Resist started, I started to cry like a baby. I have never cried like this to a song before, but Geddy´s voice on this song... it´s just so beautiful, and I love when they just have 2 acoustic guitars. It´s a perfect song... And when the whole live album was done. I listened to this song again... then I cried again... Have this ever happened to you? That you have cried to a Rush song?

Geddy's Soul Patch Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 I have had Rush's music bring me to tears many times 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Not Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 Have this ever happened to you? That you have cried to a Rush song? 2010, Bacchus Plateau.. Had a good cry to it one stressed high school night. As I grow older I cry less and less, it's kind of concerning me actually... I don't think I've had a good cry in the past two years now. Oh well. :boohoo: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. JD Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 I think Resist was one of the best done songs on the R30 tour. I've gotten emotional over a few Rush songs. Mission gets me every time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cygnus 2112 Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 I cried during Losing It, in Vancouver. They should of put it after Subdivisions. It took me out of the concert atmosphere, and the 20 minute break was well needed. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digital Dad Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 Yes. R30. Subdivisions. Where I had my HS Graduation. You would cry too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disembodied Spirit Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 Bravado got me on the CA tour. Not sure what triggered it, but me getting older, and the thought life is slowing down, plus the band possibly saying goodbye...Pissed me off, because I had mostly ignored RTB for 20 years....

JohnnyBlaze Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 No, never even close. I'm saying that only as a matter of fact. I've cried plenty of times making speeches at family birthdays, anniversaries, and weddings but never for any song or movie. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EagleMoon Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 I've been awestruck, amazed, thrilled, depressed and a plethora of other emotions but have never cried listening to one of their songs. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue J Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 Everyday Glory almost always does it to me. It's always in the same spot, too. It might seem odd, but it's the repeating phrase, "No matter what they say". I don't know why. There are certain other times that I have, at other songs. But that one almost always gets to me. Happened just yesterday, as a matter of fact. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Babycat Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 It's brought me to tears a few times, but I've never actually cried. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Segue Myles Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 I thought I was alone with the effects from Everyday Glory! I find Presto a very emotional album as well. Never cried at a Rush song. Been close. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Losing It was about 45 minutes shorter and it hit much less hard considering it was about fictional characters and not illustrative of a band that had fallen so far in under 10 years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnEggplant Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 Pretty much through the entirity of Roll The Bones. I was thinking "How could the same people who went from such musical highs as Hemispheres and 2112 come out with this...". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JARG Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 No Rush song has ever moved me to tears, but I have a hard time listening to MFH without remembering the crappy relationship I was in at the time it came out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeanMeanPride Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 Saw this acoustic version of Resist on the Vapor Trails tour - my first concert ever. What a great idea! I love it too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Look to Sirius Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 No Rush song has ever moved me to tears, but I have a hard time listening to MFH without remembering the crappy relationship I was in at the time it came out.I have gotten misty eyed on several Rush songs. Some for the power of the lyrics, and some while watching them live when I'm swept away with joy. I replied to your post mainly to second your MFH comment. Same experience. I ended up moving out and Moving To Bohemia the next year- my new bachelor pad apartment I christened 'Bohemia'. I said goodbye to suburbia, and I no longer had to cut the lawn.. and when friends came over, the beer was free. That was my theme song for a few years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexMike Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 I don't think any one song has made me cry, but listening to the mix of CA makes me WANT to cry. Regarding Resist acoustic though, it is very nicely done and makes the song more effective overall than the album version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clearly this refers to Hemingway: The writer stares with glassy eyesDefies the empty pageHis beard is white, his face is linedAnd streaked with tears of rage. Thirty years ago how the words would flowWith passion and precisionBut now his mind is dark and dulledBy sickness and indecision And he stares out the kitchen doorWhere the sun will rise no more Edited October 22, 2015 by ctbadger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
