This song is about john ponnozo dying, and dennis fucking up the band, admit it you dennis lovers, he was ruining styx, with hs love songs and theatre performances

[stmonkeys]

@NoTyOuRaVeRaGeKeViN wrong, this was written about a close friend of glen burtnik's dying suddenly, it had nothing to do with styx. nice try!

[ijnr]

Did they write this for Dennis DeYoung? Kinda wonder.

[stmonkeys]

nope- song is about death, listen to the lyrics :D

[DSmith99000]

See a lot of comments back and forth concerning DeYoung. This Styx is definately a different band than the one from the 70s and 80s. Its not worse or better, just different. Styx fans who grew up on Deyoung's come sail away type songs had trouble adjusting and I think the present line up attracts people with a little different musical taste. My only problem was that when Dennis got sick with that goofy virus Young and Shaw jumped at the chance to boot him out instead of supporting him.

[stmonkeys]

yes... but there is more to the story than that. it goes way beyond them "booting" him. dennis isn't an innocent victim here. and since the terms of the settlement will remain burried, we'll never know exactly what transpired. but i'm sure there are at least 3 or 4 sides to this story.

ok DoctorAxe....almost every vid I have watched about Styx......you have left a comment saying that they suck without DDY....they rock without DDY....he was always standing behind a keyboard or prancing around the stage like a little leprechaun....Gowan is less gay......thats why people like him.....so just stop watching these vids without him if you dont like Gowan....or Glen....just dont...

P.S: DDY is not gay....in case anybody got the wrong message...

[RUMELSKIN]

I wish Styx did performances like this once in a while. That is pretty awesome :)

As far as as I presume, D D Y was the fellow who wrote progressive lyrics such as Suite Madam Blues, etc.

without him the band ain't the same and, he seemed progressive, not this and that

I've always been a hardcore Styx fan! :D

[Yoshifire98]

I can't believe this is the only video of this song on YouTube...it's really an awesome track!

[Mr20gf]

this song is from cyclorama great album

[achoryzentwo]

@Galactimus138 but he does tend to give that appearance during his performances. (then again, so do shaw and young, and we still love both of them as well.)

[cvhoc]

Nope, it was about Michael Jackson getting into trouble on child molestation charges for the second time. 1. Listen to the lyrics near the beginning about the kids again. 2. On a Michael Jackson album that came out just before this one, there is a clip about a kid playing rock too loudly and his dad yelling at him, and then on the Styx album where this appeared the track just before it was almost identical. 3. The lyrics about everyone gets to go around one time -- talking about musicians.

Glen picks up the drama and rocks it. Lot of banter on DDY being theaterish. Well now there's a Rock of Ages stage production and who's cashing in? not Dennis but I seen Tommy and Kevin(REO) Cronin getting paid!! so maybe Dennis saw a market, Kilroy was justa moment and now we move on, it's not their final act, not till their dead. We want mre Styx and Glen,Larry are moments it's,All good, stop the hate!

I like the punk-like sound.
