Exactly....Singing From the Heart!!💜 Don't nobody need bells and whistles and grand gestures. When you sing from the heart the entire world sings with you no matter who you are!!
It was their first hit and what "started the whole train a rollin' " ... Such a great song too!! I agree - the original. I hope Jamel will do Snow Blind!! 👈🎸💪😎👊
@@cindyweir9645 Different song. We are talking about the song Lady, written by Dennis DeYoung and performed by Styx. You are referring to the song performed by Kenny Rogers. 🙂
My brother! Outstanding! All my friends think I am full of crap when I say that very thing. The two, Bohemian Rhapsody and Renegade are quite complementary.
One of the best slow love songs to dance to back in the day. And I remember one of they guys I danced with to it also. Yup, one of many crushes. Ha! Love it!
@@bobthebear1246 I agree--gotta do Lady. But NOT Lady 95---find the original one! Here is the link--not live, but the original version off the Styx II album: th-cam.com/video/QumxOQganfo/w-d-xo.html
My youngest child (8) loves this song. When I play it, she has me carry her and slowly dance while she lays her head on my shoulder. It's a very comforting song for her. ❤
This song, Journey's Open Arms and REO Speedwagon's I Can't Fight This Feeling were standards at all the dances back in the day. And if you got the song dedicated to you on Slow Jams night or at the dance...oh yea, you were some kind of hot stuff and this was the love to last forever.
"Crystal Ball," brought into the band by their then-new guitarist, a teenage guitar whiz from Montgomery, Alabama named Tommy Shaw. What a helluva cut.
@music-two-my-ears Thanks man! "Why Me" is one of the great lessor known tunes and "Queen Of Spades" would be another great choice. I'm subbed and will be watching for what ever you do.
This is the voice of Styx to me...Dennis DeYoung. I love the band, and they have good singers in James Young and Tommy Shaw, but I really connect with Dennis's voice. The expressiveness, the timbre, the sheer facility that he has across the board, he was blessed as a singer. He still sounds like this as well in his 70s because he's dropped some videos of him singing his hit during the quarantine!
AS my inappropriate friend would say, " You could feel the humidity in the building rise at that moment". I have been lucky enough to see all the formations of Styx, the early years, the top of the charts years, and each version of the post break-up Styx band and the Dennis DeYoung band. All are still great in their own way. One of my favorite bands. Thx for reacting, Jamel_AKA_Jamal
This was the theme song for us gutless 7th graders in '79-'80 who leaned against the wall at the junior high canteens and only wished we would be dancing with the girl of our dreams- who was always dancing with someone else before we could even ask. Despite the negative associations, I must say I just LOVE this song. So great. Try "Fooling Yourself" next. Big hit. You will LOVE IT, Brother J!
No I guess I really didn’t know how fortunate I was to be raised on this kind of music I was just used to it always being clean and pure and I appreciate the fact that you noticed that especially with love songs
"no cussing!" great comment. When you said that it made me think of todays music. They didn't need to curse back then. Straight forward and say something nice about the ladies in your life!
Dennis DeYoung played Pontius Pilate in the Jesus Christ Superstar touring company in the early 90s and I just happened to see it because my choir director got a bunch of tickets for free because he was playing Judas. I went to be supportive of my choir director but then I'm sitting there in the audience saying, "OMG, that's the guy from Styx, I would know that voice anywhere."
This song still brings tears to my eyes even now... Way back in the early eighties, I was engaged to my future husband, he was in the Forces and I worked for the Forces in the UK.. He used to leave from Wendover Train Station, to get to London and then fly back to his Regiment in Germany... Many times this scenario happened, waiting on the platform for the train to come.. Watching him leave and walking back to the Camp I working in, with tears streaming down my cheeks and hoping a letter would come soon.. One phone call a week, on a Friday evening... We were together for 36 years and married for nearly 34 ... Now it is even more poignant as my best beloved husband passed away 3 and a half years ago, no more holding hands, kisses, or hugging.. Just wonderful memories to keep me going.. *sighs* Best wishes to you Jamel, from Wales
I traveled to South Korea in November of ‘79, that song was so popular over there that every time I hear it I remember Soul, Korea. When I returned home I discovered that they would be at a concert in Los Angeles, I bought tickets for myself my baby sister, who was their biggest fan, & her best friend. It was a blast seeing them live in concert!
I am so glad you finally got to this song! I bought their greatest hits CD just so I could sing this song to my wife......every time we go anywhere!! My special song for my special woman!
Going to try to get this to Dennis. I might have a way to get it to him. He will really appreciate this and you might just hear from him. In case you don't know Dennis DeYoung was the guy at the piano and the lead singer who is no longer in the band and that's a whole other story we don't talk about.
The seventies was a part of my teenage years....I know I can be somewhat "bias" when it comes to music....Nothing can even come close to the excitement and the amount of "rock and roll" in this genre....that is if you don't count the start of it all....The Great Fifties....SO MUCH GREAT MUSIC!!!.....
I remember my babysitter calling the radio station to request that song when it came out. ~ Nope, no twerking or swearing. Great vocals without autotune. 70's rock is a wonderful gift.
My late husband played this song for me, and 3 days later he was killed in a motorcycle accident. This song is precious to me. Thank you for playing it for us.
Dennis DeYoung has an incredible voice. I remember back in the 80's our local rock station had Dennis in the studio and the DJ (Johnny B) was so amazed how clean Dennis' voice was at 7:30 AM in the morning - no cracks, just pure clean sound.
Oh, this makes me cry. .When my (now 23 year old) son was small, he thought they were saying "James" I love you. We have always sang it that way, and it's a special song for me & my "baby boy". He now lives 3 hours away, and I'm missing him terribly today. So glad I saw this
Really enjoyed that,took me back when we had school dances in the auditorium and they would play this song,took me way way back,lol Stay safe everyone,,
And that, boys and girls, is how it's done. No fanfare, no bells and whistles, no auto tune - nothing but pure talent. Thanks for sharing this awesome video and your spot-on reaction, Jamel! Well done, as always.
I wasn't yet 10 when this song came out. I get goosies every time I hear this song because it reminds me of my dad who has to leave for work everyday and travel for about 2hrs to and from work everyday. Thanks for the memories.
This was the first record I ever bought, 45 single! Hope you like it Jamel! Another one you might like (same era, different vibe) is 'Dream Police' by Cheap Trick!
My favorite part of ALL these younger reactors.... they seem to know nothing about lip synching. These artists were sent out to make videos and perform on, like, Solid Gold... and almost all of the time they were made to lip sync to the radio version of their popular songs
You'll find that some of them made fun of not really playing while making those old videos. The Doors, Cream, the Who... Keith Moon making faces at the camera waving his sticks in the air, then suddenly going back to pretending to play mockingly. The older the band, the harder it is to find real live performances.
I live in the Chicago area and Dennis De Young still does and calls into a sports radio show occasionally to talk about sports. He’s so down to earth and such a south sider!
Love Styx! Also check out: Blue Collar Man, Too Much Time On My Hands, Mr. Roboto, Lady, Fooling Yourself, Crystal Ball, Light Up, Suite Madame Blue, Miss America, Grand Illusion, Love is the Ritual, Lorelei, Don't Let It End, and The Best of Times.
He was married in the either late 40’s or early possibly mid 50’s cuz I remember seeing a video of a concert they did in ‘79 and he said they were married 26 years at that point :)
There’s a huge difference between the “love songs” of yesterday and the “it’s only sex songs” of today. Very sad that the romance and love has been cast aside.
Jamel_AKA_Jamal the Guitarist that had the Solo Tommy Shaw, he was in Another band that was a Super Group called the "Damn Yankees" it had Tommy Shaw of Styx, Jack Blades of Night Ranger, Ted Nugent, and Michael Cartellone he later played drums for Lynyrd Skynyrd, They had some hits in the 90's, Mel check out some of their hit Songs
And Tommy Shaw’s daughter, Hannah, has a TH-cam channel where she shows life in kitten rescue. Pretty cool. She has also shared a few videos of the two of them playing and singing together.

Kissed my first girl to this song! Still remember it!
Can I get some love for Lady, Lorelei and Crystal Ball 😁
What you said about songs @340 is exactly why we gotta keep the great music alive 💗
Styx with the childrens orchestra
Dennis is still married to Suzanne. They have been married for over 50 years!
That is true and amazing. They were high school sweethearts.
He wrote Lady for her. ❤️
@@CamiMack5616 Babe too
Jamel if ya love this song check out When Im With You by Sheriff and More Than Words Can Say by Alias 💗 both amazing songs too! 😀
What a wonderful story.
8th grade school dance....I’ll never forget being asked to dance to this song......thanks for listening to our music, bringing back our memories.
Me too!!!!
My hubby joined the Air Force in 80. We were high school sweethearts since 78. This was our song, and still is... we've been married now for 40 years!
Cheers to 40 years
That is a blessing!! Here's to 40 more!!! 🍷🍸🍺
This also made my day!
This came out while I was in the navy, getting ready to leave a duty station for sea duty. There was this girl... 😢
Dennis still sounds like that. One of the few singers that still sound fabulous after all these years.
I saw him in New York a couple years ago. He does still sound great
Billy Ocean just released a new album, he still sounds the same as well.
Yes he does. That's what staying married to the same woman, staying off the drugs and booze will do.. keep that voice intact!
@@heatherschroeder2962I don't know, Steven Tyler still sounds pretty good and he did none of that!
I saw him at Disney's "Eat to the Beat" during Food and Wine Festival one year. We went to all of the shows. He was great.
Welcome to Styx , go down the rabbit hole. This was a great song but they have so many great songs.
I'd like to see him review Mr. Roboto and the entire Paradise Theater album
You got THAT right! I'm 42 minutes late feeding my dog. BRB!
We were very spoiled. We didn't realize it would end. Thank God we can still listen to the old stuff.
Exactly....Singing From the Heart!!💜
Don't nobody need bells and whistles and grand gestures. When you sing from the heart the entire world sings with you no matter who you are!!
Dennis also made the song "Lady" about his wife .... also a huge hit.
It was their first hit and what "started the whole train a rollin' " ... Such a great song too!! I agree - the original. I hope Jamel will do Snow Blind!! 👈🎸💪😎👊
Lady was written by Lionel Richie.
@@cindyweir9645 completely different songs, but Lionel did write a great song called Lady, but completely different.
@@cindyweir9645 Different song. We are talking about the song Lady, written by Dennis DeYoung and performed by Styx. You are referring to the song performed by Kenny Rogers. 🙂
This was a HUUUUGE HIT In 1979 ,,
I got my very first kiss at a skating rink while this song was playing.
"couples skate". Good times.
Ohhhh couple skates, late night skate.......my existence for 7-8th grade 💗. I miss skating 😓
This was the music of my youth as well.
This skate is for couples only... All other skaters please leave the floor. 🥰😍
Ahhh... The memories of the 80s and late 70s. Great, great time to be alive and growing up.✌💜
this song and R.E. O. Speedwagon's Keep On Loving You are basically the first power ballads that sparked an entire decade of hair bands power ballads.
Styx will forever be one of my all time favorite bands ❤️
The #1 song on the billboard charts when I was born!
We were spoiled! Listen to what we got to listen to during our first loves! Thanks, you are great as always Jamel.
Yes we were
This song reminds me of roller skating in 8th grade 😂. Also love “the best of times”
I bet you’d like their song “Renegade”. It has lyrics reminiscent of the slower parts of Bohemian Rhapsody and music life the faster parts.
I sure Did 👍🏾th-cam.com/video/L8X6ScyUFM4/w-d-xo.html
My brother! Outstanding! All my friends think I am full of crap when I say that very thing. The two, Bohemian Rhapsody and Renegade are quite complementary.
@@jamelakajamal I’ll check it out now. I’d still love to see you review “Radar Love”, by Golden Earring.
@@ZacCostilla White Lion sings Radar Love too, don't they?
@@Mikki44 they covered it right around 1990, but the original version from 1972 (I think) was much better.
Just plain talent is all you needed back then ,no gimmicks or shock tactics just a damn good voice !
I agree. 🙂👍
They could play real instruments too and play them well.
@@mindiorenstein663 Yes and mostly self taught !😁
@@kazshaw3945 naturally
I’ve had the privilege of seeing them in concert 3 times. Love the band, love the songs. They will stand the test of time. ❤️
One of the best slow love songs to dance to back in the day. And I remember one of they guys I danced with to it also. Yup, one of many crushes. Ha! Love it!
Lady! Blue Collar Man! Show me the way! Lorelei! Won't be disappointed with any of these. Please oh please.
Other greats by Styx:
Grand Illusion
Madame Blue
Come Sail Away
Boat on the River
Lady
mr.roboto
Too Much Time On My Hands!
Lorelei too
Man in the Wilderness
Snowblind
You forgot Crystal Ball. My favorite early Styx song next to Lady.
They have an older one they sang with an excellent piano opener called ‘Lady’ - you’d love it
Their first hit, and a great one.
@@bobthebear1246 I agree--gotta do Lady. But NOT Lady 95---find the original one! Here is the link--not live, but the original version off the Styx II album: th-cam.com/video/QumxOQganfo/w-d-xo.html
That's "Our song". Husband and I will be celebrating our 44th anniversary and I still get "goosebumps" when those 1st few chords of "Lady" start.
Absolutely melt with this song...so beautiful 🤗. Thank you for doing this 💗
My youngest child (8) loves this song. When I play it, she has me carry her and slowly dance while she lays her head on my shoulder. It's a very comforting song for her. ❤
❤💚💜💙💛
I have seen them LIVE 9 times. They never get old. Never get tired. Never fail to impress and entertain. I recommend seeing them at least once.
This song, Journey's Open Arms and REO Speedwagon's I Can't Fight This Feeling were standards at all the dances back in the day. And if you got the song dedicated to you on Slow Jams night or at the dance...oh yea, you were some kind of hot stuff and this was the love to last forever.
Styx is a great band. I seen them live they were great ..
Try Renagade , Grand Illusion , the best of times ,
I was supposed to see Dennis DeYoung at Summerfest this year. It got cancelled due to COVID-19.
Suite Madame Blue.....Mr. Roboto.....more.
My favorite band, saw them 19 times (and no I am not a stalker lol)
@@bobs.3764 No bob youre a stalker LOL just kidding . If I had a chance to see them 19 times I probably would have
@@beowulf1005 Same. There was a festival canceled here as well.
love this song!!! I remember in the 70's roller skating rinks and they would play this song and you had to couple skate....lol good times...
It’s so funny that roller skating was such a big deal in the 1970’s. Every Sunday night!
Played at thousands, maybe millions of wedding receptions. Great love songs are timeless and this is certainly one of them.
Try Don't Let it End from this group. They really have so many hits.
That's a great song, too.
Just wonderful. Absolutely perfect. I miss truly great, emotionally captivating music. Thank you again Jamel.
Always loved his voice .easy listening !
Love, love Love that song. Moves my heart what a voice!
Oh yeah Jamel came back to Styx..yessah! xoxo
You put a smile on my face again...thanks pal. 🤠
"Suite Madam Blue", "Miss America", "Lorelei", "Queen Of Spades", 'Fooling Yourself", "Lady", "Crystal Ball", "Snowblind",
"Grand Illusion", "Light Up", "The Best f Times", "Castle Walls", "Why Me", 'Borrowed Time'
"Crystal Ball," brought into the band by their then-new guitarist, a teenage guitar whiz from Montgomery, Alabama named Tommy Shaw. What a helluva cut.
YESSSS!!!!
Pretty much nails it
Born For Adventure
@music-two-my-ears Thanks man! "Why Me" is one of the great lessor known tunes and "Queen Of Spades" would be another great choice. I'm subbed and will be watching for what ever you do.

Queen of spades!!!!!! Another under rated, hard , rocker of theirs!!!! And Crystal 🔮 ball!!!!!!!!!

Just one of those special tunes that carry you back, 40 years disappears... dancing with love at hs dance...transcends like little else can or does...
Dennis DeYoung played Pontius Pilate in the Jesus Christ Superstar touring company in the early 90s and I just happened to see it because my choir director got a bunch of tickets for free because he was playing Judas. I went to be supportive of my choir director but then I'm sitting there in the audience saying, "OMG, that's the guy from Styx, I would know that voice anywhere."
WOW! What a privilege!!
My favorite band. This song... has a special and personal memory...the boy I first loved...
I saw him in the Jesus Christ Superstar play in Milwaukee. He played Pontius Pilate. He was awesome!
Wow, really? Must have been amazing. He seems perfect for that part.
I saw it in NYC.
@@antoinettelopes I just listened to it. Pilate's Dream. Almost perfect th-cam.com/video/HFTsz6q8Oec/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=DennisDeYoung-Topic
I saw him as well in the touring show. He's a true performer. Did you know he also wrote a musical for The Hunchback of Notre Dame.
I saw him in that show in Montreal, early ‘90s. Excellent.
This song still brings tears to my eyes even now... Way back in the early eighties, I was engaged to my future husband, he was in the Forces and I worked for the Forces in the UK.. He used to leave from Wendover Train Station, to get to London and then fly back to his Regiment in Germany...

Best wishes to you Jamel, from Wales
"Is this live"? Hell YES! You are now listening to one of the top 3 vocalists of all time, you decide who the other two are.
Dennis DeYoung, Steve Perry, and Lou Gramm are my top three.
I traveled to South Korea in November of ‘79, that song was so popular over there that every time I hear it I remember Soul, Korea. When I returned home I discovered that they would be at a concert in Los Angeles, I bought tickets for myself my baby sister, who was their biggest fan, & her best friend. It was a blast seeing them live in concert!
I’ve yet to see anyone react to Lady by Styx. Their first hit and awesome love song...if you do react to it please do the audio only ♥️🙏
I thought Lorelei was their first hit.
I have loved this song since it first came out, and I was in junior high school. I cannot help but sing along, it is just such a great song.
Another fantastic song
The 1st concert I ever went to in 1981. Great show! Such talent. Excellent quality show.
Rocked my kids to sleep singing Come Sail Away when they were babies. Recently danced to it with my son on his wedding day.
❤💚💜💙💛
I am so glad you finally got to this song! I bought their greatest hits CD just so I could sing this song to my wife......every time we go anywhere!! My special song for my special woman!
Going to try to get this to Dennis. I might have a way to get it to him. He will really appreciate this and you might just hear from him. In case you don't know Dennis DeYoung was the guy at the piano and the lead singer who is no longer in the band and that's a whole other story we don't talk about.

Styx put Music together so well. Love songs fast songs . They just knew how to write&compose
The seventies was a part of my teenage years....I know I can be somewhat "bias" when it comes to music....Nothing can even come close to the excitement and the amount of "rock and roll" in this genre....that is if you don't count the start of it all....The Great Fifties....SO MUCH GREAT MUSIC!!!.....

Thank you for playing it for us.
I saw DDY a few years ago... still sounds incredible! Miss you Kim.
Jamel, please react to Styx "Blue Collar Man" and "Too Much Time On My Hands" 👍😎
Saw Dennis DeYoung for 4th of July 2019 in Albany, NY. His voice is as strong as it was all those years ago. And he's still with his "Babe".
Dennis DeYoung has a studio voice. He sounds the same live as he does on an album!
I seen them in concert in 2000 with REO & Survivor. Styx sounded excellent! Crystal clear, perfect.
Dennis DeYoung has an incredible voice.
I remember back in the 80's our local rock station had Dennis in the studio and the DJ (Johnny B) was so amazed how clean Dennis' voice was at 7:30 AM in the morning - no cracks, just pure clean sound.
There's a bootleg somewhere here in TH-cam with DDY singing some Led Zeppelin in a live radio guesting with Tommy Shaw.

Showgram!!!!
One of my all-time fave songs from my youth. So pretty.
Oh, this makes me cry. .When my (now 23 year old) son was small, he thought they were saying "James" I love you. We have always sang it that way, and it's a special song for me & my "baby boy". He now lives 3 hours away, and I'm missing him terribly today. So glad I saw this
RIP to my dear Uncle.This was his favorite song.He used to play this song all the time when I was growing up.
Beautiful song ! Their only big hit in the UK in 1980.
Its from 1979
Really enjoyed that,took me back when we had school dances in the auditorium and they would play this song,took me way way back,lol
Stay safe everyone,,
Have you heard Lady by Styx? It came out in 73, I think, but they re-recorded it with Tommy Shaw in 95
"Lady" is a must - Also written about his wife.
And that, boys and girls, is how it's done. No fanfare, no bells and whistles, no auto tune - nothing but pure talent. Thanks for sharing this awesome video and your spot-on reaction, Jamel! Well done, as always.
BABE I LOVE YOU! Bro you gotta voice J Thanks Babe!😊
I wasn't yet 10 when this song came out.
I get goosies every time I hear this song because it reminds me of my dad who has to leave for work everyday and travel for about 2hrs to and from work everyday.
Thanks for the memories.
This was the first record I ever bought, 45 single! Hope you like it Jamel! Another one you might like (same era, different vibe) is 'Dream Police' by Cheap Trick!
Dennis DeYoung's voice can make me either have chills or cry. There's such a quality in his voice that I seem to be at a loss for words...
I hope that I'm not the only one that believes Jamel needs to listen to Mr. Roboto, by Styx.
Nope; you're not. It's still a damn good song.
Heard it on the radio a couple weeks ago and had that very thought.
I wrote that on another Styx video he did. Lol. No, you're not alone.
Never Alone!!😍🎶
Domo Oregato,Mr. Roboto....
Go back in time to the 60s and 70s
That's where the great music is

I've skated couples to this song many many nights. I still love it. I wore out a few copies of this 45 back in the day.
I live in the Chicago area and Dennis De Young still does and calls into a sports radio show occasionally to talk about sports. He’s so down to earth and such a south sider!
One of the all-time great love songs, and so wonderfully, quintessentially ‘70s.
Love Styx! Also check out: Blue Collar Man, Too Much Time On My Hands, Mr. Roboto, Lady, Fooling Yourself, Crystal Ball, Light Up, Suite Madame Blue, Miss America, Grand Illusion, Love is the Ritual, Lorelei, Don't Let It End, and The Best of Times.
Agreed. I would add Renegade. Not sure if he has already reacted to it.
@@kbusby4824 Yes he did that one already.
Beautiful love song for sure. His voice is so pure. Thanks for playing all the tunes even us older people maybe haven't heard in a while.
He's still with his girl. I believe they got married in the 70s. He's in his 70s now. (Dennis DeYoung).
He's a decently normal guy with an amazing voice. I love listening to him, even today.
@@surfeit5910 me too
He was married in the either late 40’s or early possibly mid 50’s cuz I remember seeing a video of a concert they did in ‘79 and he said they were married 26 years at that point :)
Wikipedia has the wedding date of 1-17-1970. Nearly 51 years.
One of the great vocalists.
Honestly I would take him over Freddie Mercury Freddie is great but I find him way overrated I would put Jim Morrison over Freddie
There’s a huge difference between the “love songs” of yesterday and the “it’s only sex songs” of today. Very sad that the romance and love has been cast aside.
Remember this son well and it was a huge hit for them. I was 19 at the time and life was beautiful.

"We'll never have to say goodbye again" by England Dan and John Ford Coley
He definitely needs to go down THAT rabbit hole
Agree
True Talent. Ballads, rock, they could do it all.
They have many hits to follow up Babe, play “Lady”.
