Steve Walsh-The most incredibly talented progressive rock pianist and vocalist to ever set foot on the earth. Who can surpass him or out perform him? I challenge anyone to come up with a better progressive rock male voice while simultaneously playing the keyboards and jumping around, doing handstands on stage. Simply Amazing! There is no one that I could I ever find who was better than he in performing such great music! May your talent and music live on forever, Steve (and Kansas)!!!!!!!

Steve Walsh! What else can be said about this amazing and incredibly talented musician? If I could only live to see him sing, play keyboards and do handstands and cartwheels for another thousand years on stage! An amazing sculpture of energy! Take Care, Steve! We love and thank you, brother!

Fantastic. What an underrated band.

I agree...Steve is arguably THE FINEST keyboardist/vocalist/frontman ever, although his voice is gone due to drugs, i still put him in a class by himself!

I agree!

I've lived in Hungary in the 70's and it wasn't easy to get music from the west. But we could listen it on the radio! (well some of them). So I am a fan since 1975 and I managed (somehow,you don't want to know) to collect all of their records. Yes they are deeply underrated!

Unfortunately I couldn't see them in concert and I think it's too late.

Another classic underrated and underappreciated Kansas song. It seems I have written that same thing about 20 different Kansas songs. It really is a shame Kansas was overshadowed by Yes, Genesis, ELP and all the other British Prog rock bands. The more I listen to Kansas I still am amazed they didn't have a bigger following back in the mid-late 70s. I still love Kansas as much today as I did 35 years ago. And I am happy to read all the positive things other Kansas fans have to say. Thanks.

Ok, random appearance comparison, but doesn't Robbie's hair kind of remind you of Claudio Sanchez?

This is the quintessential "miss that girl" song. Incredible passion and energy. The most powerful voice I have ever heard!

[debbiechickie5]

Song starts out great, then sounds like a Coke commercial....blech.

[Tippersnore]

I like this expression of being alive! I hope it is not gone in America! Such a world I do not wish to live in with Asian gloom.

This is the second best song on Monolith and should've gotten some airplay, but I don't think it did. Monolith is the album where Kerry and Steve's song styles clearly diverged. Steve was developing his own style, still heavily keyboard-focused, but Steve's songs had more R&B influence and bounce...Kerry's were more baroque...although on Monolith, Kansas was rushed into putting out an album after 3 very hectic years of touring. I saw the Monolith concert in NYC and it was a great show.
