i smacked a kid so bad today. In the principals office the principal asked why i did it. take a guess why? yes he said "Styx? Who the fuck are styx? thats a damn retarded name!" I got approoval from my parents and the school staff!
@TobiScatbannana No matter how many witty comments any of us make, people like you don't seem to get the point...That nobody cares about your musical preferences just because you're 12. I'm 14 and I like Led Zeppelin; I'm 12 and I like Styx; please just don't bother filling the Internet with your useless crap.
The Internet isn't a truck it's a series of tubes. Please stop clogging them.
this was released right as i started blazin- i thought it was lame until other styx hits came bursting onto the 70's scene. wow- did we come to love lorelei too.
I hope they do also...Im blastin this just tha same and its after 4am..o well its a holiday.
I wouldnt go as far as greatest band but there was talent...Dennis definetly is a showman. I saw them early '73 before Tommy.. then Grand Illusion with.
Hey guys this is a great song, i was wondering if you guys could go to my page and listen to my new songs and tell me what you think! thanks Everyone its a new band named Communication Eruption!
this is one of the best songs styx ever done from the 70's. drugs, sex and rock n roll was where it was at, and this song was always included in every session.
@LoreleiTheKitten They wrote it for you Lorelei!!! Cool huh?? Probably Lady as well and Babe I could go on... These Cats had it going on!!! You have a Beautiful name...For sure!!!
@lorilynnray Your name is rather rare, you don't hear it that often. When I do I think of this song. Im amazed you meet people that can't pronounce it. But then again we have gone from Generation X to Generation Duuuuuh...
The very first concert I ever saw were these guys! 1979 in Atl. Ga. at the Omni. they were as good if not better than one could imagine.Styx was a important band for alot of people back in the 70's and 80's, brings back the best of memories. But the best thing about them is you can STILL see them live and they are very awesome to see! Check them out soon!
This makes me think of Gilmore Girls. Lorelai Gilmore lol And its funny that both Lorelai's in the show have a great taste for music and there's tons of rock music references in the show. I wonder if its a coincidence.
Great tune, great band and, yes, Styx was huge in the 70's. You wouldn't know which bands were big and which weren't by listening to classic rock stations today. It's easy to think many big bands had 2-3 songs that got air time which wasn't true. WABX, W4(when Howard Stern was there, before it went country) and WRIF in Detroit played them all back then. Certain nights, they would play an album straight through and I'd have my tape in the record setting.(I hated 8 tracks, fading out mid-song.)
you are 100% corrrect in that you'd never know who was big in the 70s and 80s by listening to retro stations or listening to who the media says was big. they play too much obscure junk on classic rock stations now....music that isn't even rock from artists no one cared about back in the 70s
@Huggins293 I understand your point. Personally, being Canadian, I like Geddy and Rush better, but this is premium epic rock and roll here. Case in point, Styx and Rush own reality. Peace/ :)
i love styx dont get me wrong, but this one i dont actually like, its not bad infact its good, but for me its to much like country music, and i hate country, so it kinda ruins the song for me :/
@naccben So was I. At one point I had Styx, Styx II, The Serpant is Rising, Man of Miracles, Miracles (1 differnt song), Best of Styx, Equinox, Crystal Ball, Grand Illusion, Pieces Eight, Cornerstone, Paradise Theatre, Kilroy Was Here, and Caught in the Act. Awesome stuff !!!!!!!!!
It's funny ----STYX is sometimes classified as a prog-rock band but this tune is pure power pop. Probably why I like it more than most of their other stuff.
@glass3sg33k You should see me during 3 months ago, when it is fav. music week at the school. Me and my friends gathering around the microphone and shouted "WE LOVE CLASSIC BANDS, BRING BACK THE 80S MUSIC! Then we played this song. Though we regreated that we should of played Reneaged, lol.
Robert Plant?The front man for Led Zeppilin? You know who Styx is and you dont know who Robert Plant is? Your membership as a serious rock n roll club member has been revoked!!!
OMG !!! my husband sang this to our baby while i was still pregnant and she kicked like crazy , so we named her Lorelai ( said the same , only spelled different )
