No problem. If you’re into this capcom music thing, the comments on that video may also be fun to read, as there are people who clearly got really into it. Stuff like:
I supported Shuttle missions from STS-26 to STS-135. It was a tradition to play “Countdown” continuously in my car as I was making my way into work on launch day. After the program ended, I would only hear it when playing “Signals” at home or in the car. Fast forward 11 years. Launch day for the newest vehicle in U.S Space Exploration, Artemis. Heading in to support the launch, a few blocks from the house, the news guy on the radio mentions the “Countdown of Artemis”. Countdown? Artemis? COUNTDOWN!!! I stopped the car, turned around, went back home, grabbed “Signals”, started “Countdown” and headed in to work. The tradition continues… Ad Astra!
Or
I have a friend who is an astronaut and has been in space. I asked him if he knew of this song, and with a wide eyed grin, he replied - “every astronaut knows this song”.
Now how cool is that!
Rush frames the excitement of the space journey so well, it had to register with these space pioneers as well!
For the record, I’ve seen Rush 23 times, beginning with GUP and can’t begin to say how impressive each and every show was.
They’re living evidence that the Mozart’s and Bach’s of the past, still exist in modern times.
TYVM!
