I lived in a rented trailer with a buddy in the mid ninety's, we had a Sony receiver, pioneer CD deck, and some really kick ass Bose speakers and would shake the entire trailer with this song.
Lol I have Bose 901s driven by a pair of 400 watt NAD mono amps and a Crown 1505w mono amp into a 21" driver....no one in this trailer park can sleep if I am drunk.....
Im 55 and when i was 8 years old this was my favorite song..Not just the harmony between the Styx members but the message of optimism and American's look to the future...
I have to say. When Styx wrote that, it was about their current time (which I didn't think that bad), and loved the Marilyn Monroe Statue of liberty. Then as it continues it seems to fit current times to a T !! That final statue sobbing, and holding her withered face, is completely disturbing 😬😱 I don't know how many time's I've watched this, and each time I'm a little more disturbed. Well done @Wraithsong 🎤🎸🎹🥁🤘🎩
@@wraithsong24-7 It fits in "really" well with the current political climate, wouldn't you say ? I won't mention which way I lean, well lean is a mealy way of stating that, as I'm definitely to the 1 side !! I'll stick to 🎶 as that is the universal language for us. None of the crap stuff they pawn off as music. I'm not talking about the newer bands I dig 🤔 Like A7X/Halestorm/Taylor and The Pretty Reckless/FFDP etc. However as much as I like them, they weren't part of what formed me when growing up !! They make the song's you choose, and the artistry you add to them so impactful 👊 ✌
@@jlaws007BD Thank you again😊. You’re very kind. I put a lot of thought and contemplation into every picture I put in a video. Sometimes I’ll have two or three videos I’m working on for weeks and I just keep going back to each one after it’s done and re-watching them and “feeling it” until it feels right, I’m mean really does what I want, I wont release it. And I’ve gotten better over the last couple years at doing that. At least I think I have lol. I go back and watch some of my older videos and it makes me cringe lol. I agree with you on your theory of classic versus contemporary. There’s a lot of newer stuff, I really like. I won’t even consider making a video because videos are so common. Every artist that is doing well has videos made now. You mentioned “pretty reckless”, she’s a good example, her videos are fantastic.
@@wraithsong24-7 Wow, I wasn't expecting an agreement on the newer music, but yeah I have a decent mix between then, and now. She's a great example, and I think Avenged Sevenfold A7X are pretty much the millenials version of Metallica lol I can tell all the work you put into them, and knew you had to have done, and redone them over and over. Bcos of the attention to detail !! It's absolutely the best I've seen on TH-cam and also the "only" videos I'll play that aren't of the band's live, or the occasional one's that are featured around some hot models 😃 I'm a sucker for a couple of them, but enjoy your material better than anything but live or a released video of them. I have an entire folder of: The Midnight Special videos for instance. However that's why I gave you so much credit, as I knew for it to come out the way you've done it ? That had to have taken hours upon hours to get it "Perfect" 💯🤘
@@jlaws007BD some of the current bands I really like; I love Avenge Sevenfold. I dig a lot of the operatic metal like Night Wish, Epica, Primitia, Burning Witches, and Beast In Black. I really dig an older current, The Dead Daisies, they have a lot of videos. One of my most favorite newer metal bands is WarKings. Also Lords of the Trident, Holter and Sabaton. And a hundred more I could list. But again all these bands are making their own videos so I wouldn’t dare even touch them. WarKings videos are freakin baddass.
Styx Grand Illustration was a very hot album in my high school days in the 70s. You seem to nail it every time with your videos. Most people who listen to this song think its about a woman. They don't realize it's about the Statue of Liberty the USA.
America is sick, Miss Liberty is crying for what she sees going on in her country. All citizens open your eyes to the truth, our brains and souls that God gave us seperates us from the animals. We must have law and order. We must protect our borders. We must have strong and competant Government officials. Who make and have stong policies. etc etc. We must have the truth.
@Wraithsong Hey I'm thru your library of song's 😂 I gotta say; if I was 16 again, instead of 63 your video's would be guaranteed, "boing" 😂 boner certified, awesome creations‼️ They are truly a new form of art, and you deserve all the kudos in the 🌎🔥🤘 Hopefully I didn't make that weird 😂 In fact, 1 of the ladies you created, looked almost identical to my 1st and only "true" love. It doesn't happen but once it seems, as I'm stuck w/her in my ❤ 44 yrs later 😢 Anyway sorry for the nostalgic bit 😬🙄🎤🎸🎹🥁🔥🤘
@Wraithsong Yep I just created my folder of your tremendous video's 🤘 I saw these guy's, and REO along with other heartland band's soo many time's 😅 Like I said, I was in the bar's at 16 !! This was like 77 so yeah I'm old now, but these still make them unbelievably new and fantastic again. Equinox was another l.p. I bought in 75-76 or thereabouts ✌
@@wraithsong24-7 When I saw your Accept song's after watching Revelations (there's no S in the book, but don't imagine Maiden cares 🙄), but I saw Accept open for Maiden on the: Live After Death tour in 85. I wanna say June 🤔 Oh it was up there with Metallica and Pantera, as for the best concert I've seen. Of course Udo's German accent was soo thick, if you didn't know the lyrics (from the cassette sleeve) you'd have not understood a word 😂🤘✌
We will see what happens when God Bless us all the Devil and the speaking part of our relationship with the Gods and I will share the wisdom with my family and friends alike. I have no plans to make any changes to the plan for me and my family alike
Revelation 5:9, NIV Lamb of God, saints and angels in heaven are right in singing, “You are worthy to take the scroll and to open its seals, because you were slain, and with your blood you purchased for God persons from every tribe and language and people and nation.” Let Your kingdom come to every tribe and language and people and nation. Deliver us from the bigotry and hatred that divide us. Help us to rejoice instead in the great diversity of Your Creation, to find and focus on the humanity we share and the freedoms we treasure.

Lets strip away all the negatives... let us bathe in the positives. Let us all come together... E Pluribus Unum.
LoL
Remember this song back in the late 70s what a song 🎵

Holy crap, the song with this video was so powerful it brought tears to my eyes
I appreciate your time and wonderful comment. To be honest, when I finished this video and watched it before uploading, it made me cry.
@@wraithsong24-7 just keep on doing the awesome work you're doing dude ✌️🇺🇲
@@wraithsong24-7 I'm so glad you did it. There was a version on here that was scrubbed. It's a very prophetic song
I weep, I wept
One of their best.
