    Love Styx! I remember seeing them live in the 80's when I was still in school. My wife and I took our daughter to her first concert with Styx, Journey and Night Ranger many years ago. She knew most of the songs since we had played them often while she was growing up.

    I can honestly say that from listening to them when they 1st came out to how he rocked it here, I don't hear that much difference. Its a craft that you can sound like you did live that you did on a studio version. They both sound completely the same to me. I've always like Styx, even before Tommy Shaw and Dennis DeYoung had their differences. I was upset when someone stole my CD from my CD case. Thoroughly enjoyed this. Great pick Melanie.

    That was a blast from the past! I saw Styx when they performed in our high school gym back in the 70’s before they got famous. Only about 1/2 the seats were full, and administration made them perform with all the lights on. Guess they were afraid of us getting pregnant or something during the show. Good times.

  • @melanieinnc8791

    I love this song ...it is so fast paced. It came out in 1981 and this performance was done in 1996. Styx is still performing. I can't watch this video without it lifting my mood.

  • @kennethmcdonald2987
    @kennethmcdonald2987 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    The singer Tommy Shaw is from Montgomery Alabama and along with his work in Styx and Damn Yankees is an amazing bluegrass artist also .He does a concert with some young singers and musicians you need to check out .So nice to see an artist of his caliber sit down and be joined with our young artists especially in this day and time when most artists couldn't be bothered to inspire and teach our youth ,another who does this is Billy Joel another artist to seriously check out have yet to even hear a song from him that wasn't amazing just pick any of them all of them are great

    STYX was always good in concert, plus they're very entertaining and you can tell they truly enjoy performing. So either version, live or studio, is good. Tommy Shaw has a great voice and is a very talented guitarist. I think you had reacted to their very famous song, "Renegade" which really shows his singing skills. If you haven't, I hope you do. :)

    Just a suggestion Ty, Tommy Shaw(the singer) collaborated in concert with
    The Contemporary Youth Orchestra in 2017. They cover many Styx songs.
    It is fabulous.
    The cable channel AXS TV shows it ever so often. Twice this week.
    Check it out. You won’t be disappointed.
    The CYO looks to be from 10 to 20 years of age. Spectacular what these young people are doing.

    Tommy said he wrote this song in about 10 minutes. He heard the bass rhythm on the radio on his way to the studio. He had Chuck Panazzo lay down the bass beat and monkeyed with the rest of it and they recorded it in about an hour, then it was in the bank.🤑🤑

      @bumpguitar1 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Technically, Tommy Shaw, the lead singer here was not an original member of Styx. He joined after Styx had already released five albums, replacing original member John Curulewski. Styx was already big (at least in my hometown Chicago) by then, but rose to even greater heights, thanks to Shaw's songwriting, singing, and guitar playing prowess.

Unfortunately as happens to all great singers eventually the range shrinks a little. Love that they were still having a great time doing what they love but saddened a lil at the key drop from when they first did this though completely understand why. Still more joy than sadness lol
