I've been listening to these guys since I was 12. I saw them for the first time this year in Niagara Falls and this was one of their best played songs. Styx is incredible
I would listen to this song on my 8 Track every morning before school when I was 16. :) The meaning of the lyrics, was as dead on about society then, as it is today. Blue Collar Man would would desribe some of todays' current issues as well. It's surprising noone writes songs like this today.
The way I see it, the message is simple - we're being lied to, told to fit a mold. Easy. Translate that how you will, but let's jsut listen to the music.
The Emerald Tablets of Thoth : "Man is in the process of changing, to forms that are not of this world; grows he in time to the formless, a plane on the cycle above. Know ye, ye must become formless before ye are one with the light."
STYX's message can be interpreted in the form of many different analogies, & metaphors, But the one constant message is one of Positivity. And Please excuse me from any debates or arguements, or conversation to the contrary! I'm to busy enjoying the Music to participate in those activities! Peace Out. :)
The message is clear here... What we have is a grand illusion...
The evil is around us all... The debt enslavement, wars for Israel, evil control of government, and the control over the media and the message that we receive.
Just remember that its a grand illusion, and deep inside we are ALL the same
I see a lot of bickering, name calling, and ignorance to the message STYX is trying to tell you / us. People Lay down your crack pipes, open your eye's, ears, minds, and try to understand the message in the music!
Mr master lee? Why don't you explain it to them? He's not asking who the the hell we are? He's asking why the hell are we here? So, answer master lee, please. Because, I'm just Lao Tsi.
Any and all thumbs up whores are part of the grand illusion...don't go listen to a certain song unless they're told to by TV, radio, or even the man in jeans...

911 was Muslims, fluoride is good, vaccines are good, chemtrails are water vapor, voting is fair, fed reserve is federal & a reserve, income tax is required by law, obama was born in Hawii & USA went to the moon, HAHAHAHAHAHA
Oh sheeple people so gullible. Sure why not, we just killed a long dead osama , LOL.
@bongojim420 I'd rather it be left to "uneducated morons" like me rather than pot-smoking commies like you who believe every stupid conspiracy theory that comes along.
@bongojim420 typical conservative. when the liberals cant clean their mess up, the EVIL liberal media caused the recession.
Actually i'm just joking with you - you're a fucking nut. Stop worrying about your stupid pseudo-intelligent controversies because you're doing just about the same amount of help then the Bush administration did for America. thanks.
yeah, ya know, i tried to attend burkley back when I was 18,. funny things happened back then too. I was liked and ready to be accepted, but you know what? after I could not attend, you know what went on to fill burkley? a gay issue to set the stage before I could get there andmake a difference the difference had to be made first. I am not the one who is confused, like i said, I like fact, instead of theory. B word? without a doubt sis/bro.
Just to make something clear if you guys wanna see them go see Dennis DeYoung not Styx! The Group Styx misses a lot of the original member and the good ol's sound! Dennid DeYound tho stil got his voice and his talent!
Meaningful Lyrics. Alot of music these days seem to enforce the illusion, back then they were singing to try to make you let go of the BS and live happier.
as someone who was there during the time, it was just called rock....it's an outstanding concept to think of it that way, i know....but leave it to others to convince you that's it's in some sort of sub-genre.....in my book, rock = rock
The lyrics make the song good. I think if this song was about sex or something shitty and pointless like that I wouldn't listen to it. It is like telling a story and you just want to know what's next. Epic band.
fortune tellers...the for-scene decline of America at its greediest??? Blind ambition although not an American exclusive we have proven to the rest of the world how truly bad it can be. With that all said, loved the song in High School (late 70's) and love it still.
wow it's a close call that 70s show or not. I myself was brought her because of that 70s show just because this music is for my time. Today radio stations unofortunately only play bad 'music'
@capthaudy Shut up, you fucking idiot. You're just some bitch trying to get thumbs up. And you didn't even try hard to make a clever comment. or even one that makes sense.
Love Styx since they first appeared at the Exhibition stadium in Toronto.
I saw their "Grand Illusion" tour, it was the best concert/show I have ever been too. Tommy Shaw was great too! Their backup was Zon, what a night to remember! Those were the days when it was inexpensive and the best bands, I saw Queen with Freddy, and Rush at Maple Leaf Gardens the following week, whew, life then was so much fun!
@investing12345 Agreed, had so much fun in the 70's when life easier, good music, good people, then today had to happen, this crap rap, stupid pop bull shit came out, now it's about the spotlight and money, back in the days music was about the talent it was true to the word, with real instruments.Wonder why I'm still stuck in the past, 50's through the 80s is the best era for anything,
the very first song I learned what the words were ;19s7sventy something, I am still me then, so so much a child and I credit STYX for the youth of Spirit.
the very first song I learnened what the words were ;19s7sventy something, I am still me then, so so much a child and I credit STYX for the youth of Spirit.
@MrNoseSnot I didn't it was on that 70s show but I do think that its great now the kids that listened Styx back in the 70s and 80 s are now the writers and producers of today
Isn't ALL pop culture artificial regardless of the country of origin? Most parts of Europe have the same infatuation with "fake" pop culture figures (I.e.- television and film actors,musicians,athletes,models,politicians,wealthy people, royalty, etc.) Ironically, m any of the figures they are infatuated with are Americans which is extremely odd. Certain parts of Asia are obsessed with Taylor Swift...a teenage girl that won a TV karaoke contest in the U.S.A. Lunacy.
@WhiteSilverAngel Well, being more of a Tommy Shaw fan, I can recommend Renegade, Blue Collar Man, Boat on the River, Crystal Ball, and Man in the Wilderness. Awesome goodness. Best album: Grand Illusion.
@WhiteSilverAngel well, theres lots of good ones, like Mademoiselle, Renegade, Come Sail Away (great one right there), Crystal Ball, Mr. Roboto, Show Me The Way, and so much more, just look up their name and youll find some songs :)
'don't be fooled by the radio, the tv, or the magazines ... that show you photographs of how your life should be; they're just someone elses fantasies' I was like 8 yrs old or so when I got pieces of 8....loved it then, love it now!
@Detlockerroom Once again, you make an incorrect and foolish assumption. You do that a lot, don't you? Also, once again, you get way too serious over something that has little meaning to anything. Just remember, it's ........... A Grand Illusion.
Yeah, I may have been building up to that over this full day.
@YouaNumbahOneRacist once gain, you accuse me of making an incorrect assumption and then you don't tell me what it is...you do that a lot don't you...and i'm getting serious over it because you keep annoying the hell out of me and i can't even go a few hours without getting a message from you in my inbox. Just fucking drop it. you have your opinion i have mine so just stop arguing!
@Detlockerroom I thought you had it figured out. The assumption that I dislike Rap. That's the assumption you make. I do that on a very rare basis, actually, but thanks for asking!
@YouaNumbahOneRacist wow, you just keep on wasting my time don't you? i don't fucking care. all you do is argue with me about defending a type of music that i like...i don't care if it's satire, irony, or whatever. Just post about the damn video instead of Rap or any other type of music. that's all i'm saying. And the fact that you keep posting and responding after me repeatedly asking you to stop flooding my freaking inbox really says something about you.
@fogghat25 I totally agree and it happens to be awesome. I was actually listening to "Living Thing" by ELO and for some reason it reminded me of this.
i love how lamb of god is getting so much advertisement they deserve it more than any other band right now ! pure american metal!

Isn't ALL pop culture artificial regardless of the country of origin? Most parts of Europe have the same infatuation with "fake" pop culture figures (I.e.- television and film actors,musicians,athletes,models,politicians,wealthy people, royalty, etc.) Ironically, m any of the figures they are infatuated with are Americans which is extremely odd. Certain parts of Asia are obsessed with Taylor Swift...a teenage girl that won a TV karaoke contest in the U.S.A. Lunacy.

wow just discovered Styx, anyone suggest any certain songs that are really good besides fooling yourself?
WhiteSilverAngel 10 months ago
@WhiteSilverAngel Well, being more of a Tommy Shaw fan, I can recommend Renegade, Blue Collar Man, Boat on the River, Crystal Ball, and Man in the Wilderness. Awesome goodness. Best album: Grand Illusion.

@WhiteSilverAngel well, theres lots of good ones, like Mademoiselle, Renegade, Come Sail Away (great one right there), Crystal Ball, Mr. Roboto, Show Me The Way, and so much more, just look up their name and youll find some songs :)

@WhiteSilverAngel I'm surprised no one's suggested Suite Madame Blue, Miss America, or Lady yet, Castle Walls is also good

'don't be fooled by the radio, the tv, or the magazines ... that show you photographs of how your life should be; they're just someone elses fantasies' I was like 8 yrs old or so when I got pieces of 8....loved it then, love it now!

@Detlockerroom Once again, you make an incorrect and foolish assumption. You do that a lot, don't you? Also, once again, you get way too serious over something that has little meaning to anything. Just remember, it's ........... A Grand Illusion.
Yeah, I may have been building up to that over this full day.
YouaNumbahOneRacist 1 year ago
@YouaNumbahOneRacist once gain, you accuse me of making an incorrect assumption and then you don't tell me what it is...you do that a lot don't you...and i'm getting serious over it because you keep annoying the hell out of me and i can't even go a few hours without getting a message from you in my inbox. Just fucking drop it. you have your opinion i have mine so just stop arguing!
Detlockerroom 1 year ago
@Detlockerroom I thought you had it figured out. The assumption that I dislike Rap. That's the assumption you make. I do that on a very rare basis, actually, but thanks for asking!
psst.......
Grand Illusion.
YouaNumbahOneRacist 1 year ago
@YouaNumbahOneRacist wow, you just keep on wasting my time don't you? i don't fucking care. all you do is argue with me about defending a type of music that i like...i don't care if it's satire, irony, or whatever. Just post about the damn video instead of Rap or any other type of music. that's all i'm saying. And the fact that you keep posting and responding after me repeatedly asking you to stop flooding my freaking inbox really says something about you.

@YouaNumbahOneRacist and the fact that YOU can't figure out what i'm saying, i'll make it as clear as i can. STOP ARGUING WITH ME!
