  • Tommy Shaw, definitely an underrated voice in rock.

  • Well, my children, back in the Dark Ages when MTV actually played videos, I would sit for days glued to my parent's TV and would drool over all the Styx videos, especially this one! Loved Tommy to death! Hard to remember the days of limited media and exposure, so different from today! All a teenage fan had back then were teen mags and Don Kirschner's show.......

  • Great comment...miss the old days of MTV too!

  • Rocks your socks off.

  • This is a funny video =]

  • how gay are you is the question

  • As with many Styx songs, it is ruined by the effeminite Dennis DeYoung. Not a bad Tommy Shaw song.

  • is that the keyboardist?

  • I fail to see how Dennis DeYoung ruined this song...

  • I fail to see how you made your birthday pleasant to your mother.....

  • I am going to sing the first solo for my high school show choir wish me luck

  • Still in love with Tommy Shaw some 30 years later.

  • to go back to those days.....

  • one of my favoritest songs!!

  • 3:04 - crazy as a hatter! absolutely love them!

  • first band i went to see in concert

  • absolutely awesome synthesizer.

  • styx should do a concert with Rush... that would be awesome.

  • that would be cool, and kansas, camel, yes, zappa, genesis etc would be welcomed :D

  • i need to get a new keyboard and synthesizers cuz the one i have right now is close to this sound but not quite there

  • Yeah I hear ya! You can tune a piano but you can't tuna fish..lol

  • damm great jamm just classic

  • by far, one of my favorite songs, its almost like they saw the future and wrote a song about my life, expect for the part about not bein a criminal,haha

  • i saw this n concert last nite reo and bo bice and styk in jonesboro got a pick rock on

  • I was there...

    :D

    Amazing concert, I must say.

    "I'm starting to like you all in a very special way"

  • ROCK ON STYX!!!

  • This is my new favourite song!

  • I hear it on the radio... I crank it up!

  • This is good, I never seen this video until now, they are still a great band to this day, they still tour with REO Speedwagon. I like Styx better though.

  • Isn't any wonder I am not crazy? Isn't any wonder I am sane at all?

  • I agree with the guy under me

  • This deserves WAY more views than it has now.

  • tommy shaw was always my hero! i dreamed of the white les paul for years! igot it now.

  • Mmmmmmmmmmm, Chuck Panuzzo was so hot back then!! :P

  • theres somethin bout styx, i admit their shits lame, but i still bump it when im drunk

  • What's the alternative? Should they have played bars and birthday parties to develop a "local" audience instead of living the international jet set?

  • The problem with the group was that they should have told DeYoung "Stop with the Crap". Equinox, Pieces of Eight, Crystal Ball, & Grand Illusion were awesome and still are. DeYoung tried to turn the group into a Broadway stage show with Paradise and Kilroy. Most honest Styx fans are in agreement with this. Why do you think they kicked his ass out?? Actually, I like your idea of the birthday party. Think I could get them to play at mine?

  • A fair enough assessment, however this video is from 1981 and punk had started long before that...all the way back to 1969 if we're talking Iggy Pop.  And to play devil's advocate, it was the Punk movement which gave us the musical abortions Blink-182 and Good Charlotte...I'd take this "cheese" over that "pile of steamy shit" any day.

  • JY and Styx K^^L band !

  • Tommy Shaw was great as lead, but then Dennis DeYoung lamed up the band.

  • hell yeah this is my favorite Worst band!!!!

  • why doesnt it show the bass player???

  • This Song rules, Trolls go somewhere else!!!

  • Love it.

  • why doesnt anyone have hair like that anymore?

  • pissed off gradma at 2 30

  • I would love to see them perform

  • Ok~~Haters~~go away! Thank-you. Now onto the Styx band...Tommy Shaw was my crush in 1978. Many good bands ..but the girls from N.K. loved him and Styx.

    Hey crazyfuk100~~go away if you don't like the music...."holy gay hater", That is a HATE crime in USA. Stupid crazy dumb ass~~

  • Let me also add this... 10 out of 5 stars!!!!!!!

  • So Styx does this song. AWESOME! The funky piano is very catchy! "I'VE GOT TOOOO MUCH, TIME ON MY HANDS!"!!!!!!!

  • they acted crazy on stage but there still one of the best bands ever

  • crazyfuk100.....fuck you asshole....who the hell do you think created Mr.Roboto...hmmm.....Styx...so SHUT THE FUCK UP ASSHOLE.

  • STYX ROCKS!

    They are still touring and still phenomenal, but unfortunately without DDY. Larry Gowan, who is his 'replacement', is an amazing pianist, though, and his 'Walrus' cover is awesome.

  • is it just me or the keyboard player feels like a the big shit, i think hes a douche good song band is kind of wierd l..l,(o.O)

  • the keyboard player is the lead singer..

  • one of the two. he and the guitarist take turns

  • thanks! i looked it up after your reply and found out the original keyboardist is gone. i am seeing them tonight with gowan.

  • why are they so creepy in the vids? i like their songs but the videos are a bit wierd

  • Well, it WAs the late seventies...the video is nicely tongue-in-cheek. Love the look on James Young's face when he pulls out the credit cards and the women still ignore him.

  • horse dhack

  • My dad always used to infuriate me in the car with this song.. he REQUIRED everyone to clap at the clappy part.

    Now I'm grown up & have taste, and this song kicks major ass and he was damn right to require the clapping XDD.

  • who cares dilhole

  • Obviously you since you took the time to read it, process it, formulate a retarded response, and then type it up.

    Have a nice day moron. =]

  • *claps* o.o; <.<

  • david spade hah

  • man, now i want an aqua blue jumpsuit

  • LOL

  • Yeah but Styx pulled it off quite nicely

  • I like the little amazon buy me shit that pops up. I hope anyone who actually pays for anything on youtube catches the AIDs and rots from the inside out till they drop dead...

  • Interesting that in an era of socially-conscience punk rock and New Wave acts (late 70's/early 80's), it was arena/prog-rock band Styx who came up with the best songs of the time concerning unemployment ("Blue Collar Man" and "Too Much Time on My Hands").

  • Very well said.

    Ironically enough, punk rock was always about making money - one only has to look as far as Malcolm McLaren and the Sex Pistols to see this. Unfortunately, Malcolm and his bands had no talent!

    "Punk Rock" was never about making people socially aware.

    It was the start of "American Idol" and manufactured celebrity.

    Interesting indeed!

  • Of course, that's because they actually THINK when writing songs, not just yell random words at the top of their lungs, and they can actually play xD

  • This is an awesome song, man i like this kind of music!!

  • funny as hell, and it really describes me

  • Shut the fuck Micheal you little 13 year old prick this doesn't describe you at all retard

  • Memories.great song

  • Can you believe that guy will be 56 in a few weeks?? He also looks a lot better since he got his teeth fixed. Even before then he was always my favorite!

  • what high school do you go to? we are doing Mr. Roboto, AD 1928, Rockin the Paradise, The Best of Times, and this song

  • Congratulations breaker, you have given your personal information and where you go to school on a random song on youtube for the world to see without any provocation or being asked for it.

    So again congratulations, you have proven natural selection false.

    This is the only thing you will achieve.
