Time Stand Still
Music by Geddy Lee & Alex Lifeson
Lyrics by Neil Peart
On January 7, 2020, the music industry lost a giant. Neil Peart, the drummer and lyricist for the band RUSH, lost a three and and a half year battle with glioblastoma, a form of brain cancer. Neil will forever be one of the most influential rock drummers of all time. Over RUSH’s 40 year career, his drumming and thoughtful lyrics have been part of the soundtrack to millions of lives around the globe, and his passing has created a huge void.
When SFC Tim Whalen heard the news, he was shocked and saddened. As a lifelong RUSH fan, he felt compelled to do something to honor Neil and the band that has meant so much in his own life. He immediately knew the song “Time Stand Still” would be the perfect choice.
SFC Whalen relfects, "The lyrics to this song have always resonated deeply with me, and they show Neil’s heart. I wanted to showcase the deep humanity he had in his writing. The song is about life moving too fast, due to both things we can control and things we can’t, and the desire to hold onto something just a little longer. This is such a universal message, whether it be children growing up too fast, a loved one dying, or a soldier leaving home wondering if they’ll ever see their family again.”
Neil Peart
September 12, 1952 - January 7, 2020

I'm a 64 year old Canadian who saw my first Rush concert in a hockey arena at age 14. I was able to hold the tears back through this whole song.... until the picture of Neil at the end. Then my 3 year old grandson says, "Grandad, why are you sad?". I said "you'll understand when you get older, when I introduce you to the music and lyrics of a band called Rush". To our US Army friends south of the border, all I can say is thank you. That was well done. Very well done indeed.

I hope what I went thru to be able to watch this video you never have to experience. What this song means to you isn't what it means to me. For me it goes way deeper because of my experiences and memories. I know the Rush version of this song very well and with the emotion they used in the song it was a different meaning than the Armys meaning. I'm not going to explain exactly why it was so inspiring for me because that's for me only. If this song has no meaning for you then maybe you should start listening to what music is really about. I can't imagine what it's like to be soulless antonio. There's got to be nothing but a dull, colorless, numbing feeling inside you.

@davidkrappenschitz1424 4 года назад

When you think about it, it makes total sense. The audition process to be in the army band is VERY INTENSIVE. I don't know what all it entails, but when I arrived at the 2nd infantry division replacement company at Camp Mobile in Korea 1997, one of the guys staying in our 8 man room was going to be in the 2nd ID band as a percussionist... One day I noticed he was listening to RUSH and immediately we got into a long RUSH discussion, as we were both HUGE fans. That was how we got to talking to each other, but because of the intense RUSH discussion, he didn't quite get around to telling me about band auditions, other than it was no joke and they don't just take anyone! With all that being said to describe the calibre of army musicians, you just KNOW peach and every one of them KNOW who RUSH is and what their music is all about. So with that example and the guy I met in Korea as an example, thyre all influenced by RUSH and I believe they feel they owe it to them for helping them get to where they are in the army band... that's what I think anyway

I've made so many mistakes that have hurt those that I truly love, but am working hard to be better. I have stopped to smell the flowers, finally forgiven myself for my poor choices and am taking in life. This makes me think of how my kids are growing up, how much I love my wife, and live life as if it were my last.

As an Army Veteran, and a RUSH fan since I first heard the band's music in 1974, I was both proud and touched by this tribute to Neil. He was unquestionably the greatest drummer/percussionist there has ever been; as well as being a fantastic lyricist. RUSH has been my favorite band since I first heard their music when I was stationed overseas; and that has never changed. I was very blessed to see them in concert many, many times. I won concert tickets from Pirate Radio on Thanksgiving morning in 1991 for the January 23, 1992, Roll the Bones tour concert at the LA Forum. During the pre-concert party I won a contest that included backstage passes and front/center seats. I actually got to meet, and talk with, Geddy and Alex while backstage. That night, meeting Geddy and Alex, and sitting front/center for that concert remains one of the highlights of my life. I still cannot believe Neil is gone and that I will never get to see RUSH live in concert again; but I will always listen to the music they created for us. I still can't watch this video without getting choked up because of the pride I feel seeing these soldiers do such a beautiful rendition of Time Stand Still; a song that has deep meaning for me as the lyrics truly describe my life. I spent way too much time working and trying to be successful and not nearly enough time enjoying life.

Being almost 19 years old, Rush has been an influence and a support to me throughout my entire life, thanks mainly to my dad. I still vividly remember the days back when I lived in Southern California, as a 4/5 year old kid, going to t-ball practice, listening to Vapor Trails, Test For Echo, and Counterparts through the CD player in the 2002 Toyota RAV4 that my dad was driving, that I now mainly drive, today. My dad and I have shared some of our best memories together at the 3 Rush concerts I was lucky enough to attend in my (compared to others) short exposure to Rush. This is an absolutely beautiful tribute to Neil’s lyrics. He wasn’t just an amazing drummer! He was so much more than that, to me, and millions of others. Thank you, Neil Peart. For everything.

I was never a great fan of this song... until today. At 50 years of age, and as a near life-long Rush fan, I have no qualms in proposing that these men’s arrangement has elevated this composition to the level of emotus maximus. I had never before felt the introspective sting of the lyric or the wide-eyed optimism of the underlying message. I suspect the dedication to Neil has something to do with it. But clearly, their interpretation simply nails the emotive sentiment that, at least for me, the original never did. Big, big kudos to all the personnel involved in this production.

Beautiful performance. I'm particularly pleased how this honours Peart's lyric writing over his drum talent... by excluding percussion. One of the best covers of any song I've heard.

Been a Rush fan since 1985 which was the first time I heard Neil play Tom Sawyer and was instantly hooked! I am 55 now and still listen to them daily. This version was absolutly AMAZING! Thank you for your service ladies and gentleman!

Firstly, thank you all for your service to our country. Secondly, what an absolutely fantastic rendition of an absolutely fantastic (and now heart-wrenching) song. Well done soldiers!!!! Stay safe.
