[freddie7076]

[6stratostar9]

eccellente

[ivhoven]

Rihanna Get F'd. Lady Gaga, its either your breath, or your moot, coz you stink. The rest of you F-tards, can go and f yourselves. This shyte is REAL MUSIC.

[mr5us555]

what organ the singer plays

[IcyIce17]

@mr5us555 are you talkin about this guitar-like instrument? I'm not sure but it looks like a bouzouki or a madolin

[Raggage]

Amazing song.

[copycator]

everlasting song... i will listen to that song even in 70s

[zosojimmy1]

love this song!

[frankduxe]

2nd Greatest song of all time.. 1st is the Losing my religion REM

[klopanatockovima1]

kako je jebeno genijalno ! jebes turbo porno folk

this music is beautiful

[TheIronvera]

GRANDES DE LA MUSICA.

[luigicamp69]

Well technically it was a Tommy Shaw song, Styx just happened to play along (that's probably why it's not a typical Styx song). It's also interesting how the album Cornerstone, in some countries where it was released, didn't have this song in it.

[luigicamp69]

I remember when it first came out, I didn't notice right away but then I thought... oh wait, no drums! Who needs drums anyway :)

[TeoAnk233]

Who dislikes are from Mars...:D

[Bojanbrate]

fenomenalno.

[IgoOrLee]

@Bojanbrate i ja kazem :D

[MrMirtha77]

hermosa canción



[TheTiglathpilesar]

Some songs you remember as guilty pleasures. This one is just pleasure.

[dacoach1122]

not one of the greatest songs by styx, but it is ok.

[koukelichristina]

Πήγαινέ με κάτω, στο καραβάκι μου,στο ποτάμι

Έχω ανάγκη να κατέβω, έχω ανάγκη να πέσω χαμηλά

Πήγαινέ με κάτω, στο καραβάκι μου,στο ποτάμι

Και δεν θα κλαίω πια

Ο χρόνος στέκεται ακίνητος όταν κοιτάζω τα νερά της

Με γαληνεύει ακουμπώντας με απαλά

Με τα νερα που κυλάνε πίσω απο το καραβάκι μου στο ποτάμι

Και δεν θα κλαίω πια

Το ποτάμι είναι βαθύ

[sahlabouhla]

@koukelichristina Πόσο πιο όμορφο είναι να το βλέπεις και να το διαβάζεις στα ελληνικά!!!!Τέλειοι στίχοι!!

[koukelichristina]

@sahlabouhla ;-)))))

[ecsalos]

@sahlabouhla ontos teleio alla pareksigimeno sti epoxi tou!!

[koukelichristina]

Το ποτάμι αγγίζει τη ζωή μου, όπως τα κύματα την αμμουδιά

Και όλοι οι δρόμοι οδηγούν στην βάση της Γαλήνης

Εκεί που το κατσούφικο του προσώπου μου εξαφανίζεται

Πήγαινέ με κάτω, στο καραβάκι μου,στο ποτάμι

Και δεν θα κλαίω πια

Το ποτάμι αγγίζει τη ζωή μου, όπως τα κύματα την αμμουδιά

Και όλοι οι δρόμοι οδηγούν στην βάση της Γαλήνης

Εκεί που το κατσούφικο του προσώπου μου εξαφανίζεται

Πήγαινέ με κάτω, στο καραβάκι μου,στο ποτάμι

Και δεν θα κλαίω πια

[sphat22]

great singer tommy shaw ^_^.....

[godevil1313]

Don't feed the trolls.

[alankeene]

I am a boater thru and thru, so I want this song played at my memorial service, and while my ashes are being spread on the ocean!!

[kotitel]

watch?v=r5COemFCYvk Russian version for this song)))

[rommel505]

twin brother, who?

[1111111111sword]

wow it is really obvious that they are a bunch of homos

[ALLNAMESAREALLREADYT]

3 greatest one hit wonder bands were:

1.Styx-Bath on the river

2.Kansas-Dust in the window

3.Man at work- Dawn under

[1950lo]

@ALLNAMESAREALLREADYT Bath ? cant u read the title of the song?

[tpowell453]

You are truly an idiot. You just don't know do you?

[piable1]

wow really?? i hardly doubt stxy is a one hit wonder band, they have many many hits

[1969DayTripper]

is this the same band as "Come sail away" and renegade"?

[riveraluciano]

@1969DayTripper i dont know you should check the videos to the right and find out maybe

[URAJAD]

LOVE THIS SONG

[az586271sg]

голубятня

[peacefullistner]

If you get a chance to see them in concert, do it ....they are still awesome today!!

[stellitsa123]

the mandolin sounds so much like bouzouki..

[GetThyDome]

It's pretty sad how few people in my generation have heard of Styx, The Damn Yankees or Tommy Shaw in general. He is a musical genius and a sexy one at that. I love whenever he sings and Cornerstone is definitely one of my favorite albums.

[96gummyworms]

@GetThyDome I love ALL of those bands (and Tommy Shaw). Thay're coming to my town because I'm too young to get into the venue (a casino)!

[ragingval]

OMG-was Tommy Shaw, what, like 12-13 when he did this video. He looks sooooo young!

[evdo3akis]

74 ppl will be left in the middle of the river without a boat

[rexieb3]

The song kind of sounds like a Greek melody. Good sound whatever it is. Peace.

[sayringula]

tommy shaw you are my energy! your song and voice keep me going!

[meleglabtarto]

And all roads lead to Tranquillity Base...

From everione!

[meleglabtarto]

Years ago, moved from Trash was a tape include of this song. So I found a lot of music, and when it begins a search to who owns the song, what is the title. I found here, but not satisfied with this, the lyrics were looked. I translate it, and now that I understand what it is about, I feel I would be incomplete without it.

Great song! Czink A.

[TheStojcha]

My Favourite SONG - The Best Song !

[Kelleymichelle88]

can i just say that i absolutly ADORE styx.. and Tommy Shaw!! everyone yapping about deyoung come on yall... look at who wrote a good portion of thier biggest hits?... yes indeed it was tommy.. this is a beautiful song and tommy has an AMAZING voice! i saw them last year and just saw them again on the 5th and will once again see them next year in nashville. and they put on the best show ive seen i love it i always know im going to have a great time at thier shows!! <3

[zzenzero]

Beautiful song and performance. I'm still singing it as I write. I don't know Styx, other than the mythical river, but this song makes me want to hear more of this band. Nice upload. :-)

[akibubba1]

shows true musicians displaying something non-existant in the junk heard lately -talent

[jahaantarbiat]

Why is it that the most beautiful songs never become radio hits? I don't think that has ever changed in the history of pop/rock music. Anybody who thinks ABBA never made anything but sugar, punch in "I let the music speak" right now from their very last album and just listen... Could this be proof positive that the masses have no clue what beautiful music is? I appreciate that music is subjective, but my god how can anybody listen to this or the ABBA song and find something wrong with them?

[classiclistener01]

This group is "SO UNDERRATED" and "TOO MADE FUN OF!!!" Why is that? Although Styx isn't the Beatles, nor, the Rolling Stones, they are "SO GREAT" in their own special way! What a wonderful group Styx is!! I love them!!! :)

[LezaRay]

<3 One of Tommy's minstrelsy songs. <3 :-) How could I have forgotten about this song???!

[mayadeviful]

i love Tommy Shaw

[turxa]

Those who disliked this song, either didn't listen to the song or, accidently pressed the dislike button.

[BeckyLMC]

Wow...I saw through Tommys' bullshit...not Dennis! Just like any other great band when you break it up, it is shatttered and can never be put together as it was!!! What a shame! Love the old Styx...it will never be the same!

[crystal33ify]

@BeckyLMC No, "slucero 1987" is right Dennis wanted too much control in the band. That is the reason why JC left the band. You can't just impose your will on everyone else.

[madzskie]

@crystal33ify In my opinion, I would give Dennis DeYoung the right to take control of the band coz in reality of their time of heyday in the 70s and early 80s he defined the group's genre. Dennis DeYoung wanted more of a theatrical concept in their music rather a harder rock edge but he was objected by his fellow band members. In the end, Dennis DeYoung stands out as the best lead singer of Styx, and even without him, fans still clamor about Dennis vocals. I miss Dennis DeYoung's vocals.

[RJosephReece]

@crystal33ify | Every hit that Styx had was either written, sung, and/or produced by Dennis DeYoung. THAT tells the man with common sense something...

And JC left the band because he was sick (and passed not soon there-after)... DeYoung imposing his will??? The band was originally a trio, the Panazzo brothers and DeYoung...

[kriscrocker1]

Tommy Shaw rocks those bangs like no other man.

[ivan0201able]

prava stvar

[rhaigaizer]

@ 1:06 what a gay moment



[crystal33ify]

This is the album that brought me in as a fan when I was 12 years old. Styx is still my favorite band of all time.

[randyandy1960]

this sounds like a gypsy song....I can just imagine this playing around a gypsy campfire....something hot cooking in a big cauldron...beautiful woman, kids tripping over feet that are pointed towards the fire.....the men are just killing time for supper time but this song is a hope for the gypsies......Its AMAZING how this song is so STRONG

[man0vv]

@randyandy1960 gypsies ain't like that... they ugly, stink, rarely have beautiful women, and their music suxxx so fcukin bad.... has nothing to do with that piece of brilliance...

[mashmusic11235]

@man0vv You know nothing about "gypsies," then. Do your homework before you say things!

[man0vv]

@mashmusic11235 have you been near gypsyes? Ever?

[Dyxe47]

@randyandy1960 What a beautiful way to describe it! I agree completely.

[lordarcas11]

Fuck.. the Cello or that what ever the hell oversized bass thing gives me goosebumps...

[CaptainKing48]

I highly expected more than 860thousand people to like this song O.O

[wladosu]

under million? what gives?

[SailAwaytoStyxWorld]

Nyaw look at Tommy. He's so cute :3

[myleftear22]

@SailAwaytoStyxWorld

a million thumbs up!

[MrRockinChair65]

One of my first rock band favorites...these gents were ahead of their time, and produced some of the most unique music of their time, imo =)

[MrRockinChair65]

Trial post..

[LuikSkywalker]

Why have Styx beeen complaining about copyright infringement ? They have cause the deletion of other vids of River Boat. I would never have heard of them, not bought a download album if they weren't on here .

[xsevrinx]

Im 15, and i absolutely love this song. such an amazing tune

[superbulldog81]

This is back in the day when REAL songwriters wrote REAL songs,

and then REAL talented musicians played REAL instruments....

not computerized, mechanical noise....and REAL singers sang

songs!! I miss the carefree 70's and very early 80's!!

[DoctorAxe]

[JJI6881]

i love this song it reminds me of my dad..he was a fisherman and when he passed thissong was played at his funeral cuz it was perfect for the moment

[D3rarsch]

NO HOMO!

[Algonkin1964]

Fucking ads!

[slowdive5329]

great record - I still can't believe that people preferred the horrible mawkish Babe

[Allen83501]

@96gummyworms....Because he can?

[96gummyworms]

@Allen83501 True...

[nordlandj]

@Allen83501 lol

[96gummyworms]

Why is Neil Peart playing the accordian?

[52wbending52]

Now i now why my mom loved styx so much

[ChrisDoll44]

dude, chellos are pro

[fourReeses]

@ChrisDoll44 That's definitely a stand-up bass... and it's spelled 'cello'

[ChrisDoll44]

@fourReeses You, Sir, have no life.

[fourReeses]

@ChrisDoll44 I, Sir, have common sense and musical knowledge... and boobs for that matter

[ChrisDoll44]

@fourReeses No way you can have boobs and common sense, let's get serious here.

[fourReeses]

@ChrisDoll44 Does that make you the exception?

[nburno]

More than 30 years, I can't stop listening to this song, as am I surprised from his suspicious smile

[wqpeb]

WICKED. EXCELLENT. and damn well DONE !!

[JJI6881]

my father was a commercial fisherman and this song was played at his funeral and then played at many other funerals of men he new, it is a great song if u have ever been part of this kind of life.

[ExpiredDream]

very grateful I got classic rock radio station in my country 

[fuckoffplan]

Fuck VEVO!!!

[MrMoronsrus]

Loved this song the first time I ever heard it and, to this day I feel the same way.

[SrubskaNadenica]

20 ppl have never sailed a river by a boat

[RebelNiki]

Timeless Song !!!

[manny667]

Del Cornestone

[96gummyworms]

Wow... Dennis and Tommy are really lost in each others eyes, aren't they...

[DreamTheaterandrest]

@96gummyworms yes they are... the band is a gay-band... but what difference does it make?

[96gummyworms]

@DreamTheaterandrest

No difference!

But in this time, only Chuck was gay

[superficker2000]

@96gummyworms live and let live but you can see to have your teeth in good shape is very important.tommy shaw back then had a terrible jaw condition.

[bobaillie]

@DreamTheaterandrest Dennis has been married to his wife for over 30 years now. He is NOT gay!

[jacbueno]

Gosto muito dessa banda é um clássico !!!!

[slucero1987]

The smile between Tommy and dennis almost seems genuine in this video.

We saw through your bullshit, dennis.

[BismuthWasTaken]

I feel a very high concentration of melancholy.

[zabijaq123]

Why the FUCK is everybody complaining about ads.

STFU, close your eyes and just listen.

[Klingonmastr]

Stupid ad's again ruining this video. I don't need Vevo telling me about some stupid new Katy Perry video. Lady Gaga is so much more talented and so much better than Katy Perry.

[amozoness6]

@Klingonmastr Better yet, download adblock and listen to a group that easily supersedes the both of them combined: Styx

[hamchannell]

Vevo - your adds really are stupid and i will never buy anything your advertisers promote using your site to ruin the video experience - and on a subconscious level - i can only imagine that these negative feeling for your adds before watching the video will attch itself to those very products that are being spammed at me - have a great day (translates to eat crap and die)

[hamchannell]

Vevo - your adds really are stupid

[archimedesnation]

Nice

[pkidro]

this song brings me so many sad memories :( ... but i can't not listen to it

Styx rocks

[SteelWeed2010]

Doesnt Tommy look like Luke Skywalker?

[snakeshan]

They just dont make music like this anymore.

[demonhoopa]

@snakeshan you'll be happy to know they do. Check out Mumford and Sons. They're pretty awesome.

[keltmd01]

Одному мне  это напоминает песенку Наутилуса "На берегу безымянной реки"?

OOOO TI KOMMATAPA!!!

[kytarista1313]

Britney stinks :-! 

[aginsj]

Wow, musicianship that is severely lacking these days in popular music. This song features mandolin, accordian, upright/string bass, tuba. And, these guys know how to play these other instruments, learning their craft. Nowadays, hacks play guitar with no skill, have bad/odd voices, and their adulated. Sad to see. I hope to see the days of skilled musians prevailing music.

[myp410up]

@aginsj Oh tell it like it is! Right on!!

[VeganWTF]

@aginsj They can "hire" one or two people to "program" the music today. Yesterday, we had a "team" of fantastic producers, engineers, musicians, . . each of which had their important talent that when combined together, produced great music. Now they don't do that anymore. They can get one person to program everything, and even produce and engineer the whole thing themselves because of "advances" in music technology.

[bennea1000]

great song.

[stohlk1]

thanks!  my favorite song from Cornerstone

[xioxitozona19]

BUENISIMA, STYX, UNA DE LAS SUPERBANDAS DE LOS 70,S.

[eduncho]

Take me back to a boat to the past, when there was no Lady Gaga!

[Dmdmello]

No VEVO, iam not interested in watching lady gagas judas

[davidcufc]

Is it a deliberate policy of VEVO to have the volume too low?

[gdhgeorge]

That's ART!! It was a time when REAL musicians dominated the world of music. Nowadays, it's enough if you have a decent voice (or less -you know who-) and spend 75% of your time taking care of your hair, skin, eyebrows, lips and clothes to have the looks of a hip pop idol. Poor signs of our times: All we've got is MTV, Bieber and Iglesias dominating YouTube..!!

[canavra]

This was the song of my childhood. :)
