Bill Wesolowski a lot of talented kids out there but they have learned from here...he has a stupendous voice...fuck the rest

[@drg659]

Yes in the original key, that's mind blowing. Most great singers who are around and older tune down one step, it doesn't matter if you do or don't as far as quality but the older you get the harder is is to hit the high notes and/or to stay on pitch. That makes his performances here all the more unbelievable.

[@eazybeezy]

The only thing bigger than your voice Dennis is your heart. God bless....

[@tracyfrazer4014]

Agree! You are Styx, always. You were the heart that was in it! The DEEPER PERSON in the Band. Everyone felt that too. Singing from a deeper place, longing for "the music" to be more then just words, and notes. You sing from place, wrote from the place, always honoring your beloved wife. Saw you in Cincinnati in Late '90's. We were right near left of third row, up front. You pointed straight at my husband (deceased in 2005), and sang words about to become true for him. Shortly after, it was revealed an evil in his life, then passed. That night, you were singing on que from above, that's for sure. He had that chance to rethink his path for sure. He even mentioned the power, your words, you pointing right at him, just unreal. I will NEVER forget it. God Bless You Dennis Ur heart just moves people, truly

[@ElvarMasson]

...you mean his ego

[@miketanski1631]

Dennis God bless you for your goodness and this song. Im 65 years old, brought up Catholic, did the altar boy thing and lots more, I have always believed, but 25 years ago I was in my study one afternoon busy with something and I had Styx Greatest Hits on the cd player and this song came up. Something made me listen carefully to it and it shook me to the core. I thought “what the heck here this man is imploring God to help him keep the faith and I take so much for granted” well the tears started to roll and I felt so ashamed. It heralded a big change in my life and how I see God. This song has become my prayer, my mantra, my inspiration and I have listened to it hundreds of times. Its such a comfort, I can listen over and over and never tire of it. I still get a lump in the throat every time I hear it. Thank you for writing it you have no idea how it has saved me in dark times. God bless you

There is ONE and ONLY voice of STYX and it’s this man here folks, Dennis DeYoung. What a gift from God. If there was one person on Earth that got me through the tough times, was this man with his talented music, and his absolutely angelic voice. Continued success and many more blessings from God. My family and I love you my friend. 🙏

1 John 2:15-17 New Living Translation 15 Do not love this world nor the things it offers you, for when you love the world, you do not have the love of the Father in you. 16 For the world offers only a craving for physical pleasure, a craving for everything we see, and pride in our achievements and possessions. These are not from the Father, but are from this world. 17 And this world is fading away, along with everything that people crave. But anyone who does what pleases God will live forever. James 4:4 New Living Translation 4 You adulterers! Don’t you realize that friendship with the world makes you an enemy of God? I say it again: If you want to be a friend of the world, you make yourself an enemy of God."

I'd be honored if some Styx & late 70s fans would take a listen to my acoustic piano & vocal performances of WHAT A FOOL BELIEVES by Michael McDonald and WE'RE ALL ALONE by Boz Scaggs on my YT channel in tribute to that great era in music. Live acoustic with no autotune or digital editing. Peace and everybody stay safe.

[@alrossi2573]

As a musician myself ( obviously nowhere near the level of Mr. DeYoung) I can honestly say that this is a true representation of REAL TALENT! No fancy microphones, no high dollar electronics to enhance his voice. Just one of the most talented songwriters of our generation and a piano belting out a tune with the same passion and love he had decades ago. Thank you so much Mr. De Young for sharing what the lord has blessed you with.

[@blackcitroenlove]

You're one of the kindest men in the music industry. Glad to be living in the same timeline.

[@styx1981]

I had the pleasure of meeting you in 1990 right before the Edge of The Century tour. Hard Rock Cafe in Dallas.. you and JY. You signed my vinyl copy and had a good look at the sleeve and liner notes. You were so kind and funny and asked me what the best song on the album was. I said Show Me The Way. It’s going to be a big hit! Of course you knew that already. Thank you for the memories and all the great music. It’s a comfort especially in these times. A lifelong fan.

[@brucebell2170]

Dennis, I was in the hospital for 3 1/2 months and this song was very inspirational to me. I’m home now, still recovering and listen to it every day. I hope that I can see you singing in person someday. Thank you for this gift. PS- You sound as good as ever!!!!! Could you please do “this thing” again with another song?

[@Chelle627841]

That song is so relevant today. I lost my father earlier this month, of all things, the flu. I couldn't see him for 15 days and we barely had a funeral. I have thrown myself into my work and have tried to not grieve because of my mom and my brother. I never ever thought that I would live in a world with so much confusion and fear. Your song brings comfort just as it did 30 years ago. Thank you

[@bowieblondie]

Love and prayers to you 💙

[@sabrinan4792]

You want to be strong for family members, but if you don't let yourself break down, you'll never recover from the loss. Working hard isn't the answer and not worth it in the long run. Grieve now. It will help *you* later on. Take care of yourself, be well. 🌹

Dennis that was so beautiful as ever you only could have sung it. I'm a Canadian and the last "Gathering" my wife and I attended was the Styx concert in Edmonton Alberta last year. I'm 58, a truck driver for 32 years.......been such a fan of you forever my friend since the 70's. Just the other day, a friend and colleague (Age 32) stopped in for supper and he helped me lift my outdoor shed out of the frozen base it was in, so of course Val made supper and we had a few beers and played crib after (5 bucks a round lol). So Val decided to play some old CD's she found in the shed in a plastic tote that we've been packing around since who knows when and one was a recording of Styx songs.....yours bud.....and my friend asks me who is this? I laughed and of course named the song and was singing along word for for word......but I sat back and realized......he absolutely loved it. He had never actually listened to it the way I have. It was an emotional moment for me. It sent me way back on an epic journey with Styx legendary songs....and my life. My friend......I can't ever thank you so much. You are amazing.

“Come Sail Away” is the most meaningful song of Styx. That was a song playing as I was driving to Atlanta May 1997 for my new job in radio research, Arbitron Radio Ratings. I was 29, and I was so excited to spread my wings and tackle young adulthood on my own. This song literally started playing just as the Atlanta skyline came into focus on the horizon. It for me attributed to me only (no couple).... I just love it. It was playing on 96Rock.... and then many years later I worked there!!!!!! Exciting days. Grew up with Styx!!!!! I’m 52 now with a 12 and 10-year old (late bloomer), and they love your music. Keeping it goin’. Such great melodies!

I just want you to know what this song meant to me for all of these years and i did not know how to reach you till this and your last video that you sang best of times in ... your music has done this for many people I am sure ... but I wanted you to know that this song got me up and made me search out what I was slowing dying without and did not care for a good while ...

DeYoung has the voice of an Angel! When we all get to heaven, I expect he will be in THE Band…. along with Elvis, Mozart, and king David (playing the harp).

We are not God's counselor or his adviser. We do not speak for God. We do not have the authority to say where or what any of us will be or what we will be doing. Eternity will not be about any of us or what we did. It will all be about Jesus Christ who died on a cross to save us from our sins. We all deserve hell and then the lake of fire that burns with sulfur and fire on judgement day.

[@lisaathens1629]

@@JohnSmith-uy7sv We all deserve hell, but thankfully as you said, loved so much that God sent his son to grant us forgiveness and everlasting life! Rejoice in the Lord and do all things as service unto the Lord, be it with gift of voice, instrument, painter’s brush, or writer’s pen. I am no scholar, just in awe of God’s beauty, creations, and gifts of talent and creativity. I may be wrong, but seems God made these things for eternity, for his eternal glory, not just for our brief moments on Earth. Seems we will always learn and be in awe of God, but certainly will NOT complain if I am wrong ;o)

You can hear the further he goes in the song the more he's warming up. Such a powerful voice. Only you, Mr. DeYoung and Mr. Steve Perry have shown that if you don't abuse your voice, you don't lose it. Thank you, sir.

[@allysontrionfo815]

You are so right....am a fan of Steve and Dennis....they both have such iconic voices that will just never be replaced!!!

[@johnthomas3596]

Dennis, I've been listening to your music since I was 9 years old(I'm 58 now). You can still belt out the music. God keep you and your wife safe! Thank you for sharing your gift of music to the world.

[@robertpatrick9128]

A perfect tune.I pray this constantly. You were Heavenly inspired when you wrote this song Mr. DeYoung. You put to music what millions pray. Well done Sir !!!

[@dannys813]

Back in the late 70's early 80's I didn't know your name or group. But I remember as a young black male falling asleep with my radio playing listening to "Lady". Every young crush I had was treasured through that song. Now, fifty years later I am reacquainted with a voice that was my friend so long ago. And yes, it did help. God bless you sir.

[@sandrafavre375]

Just beautiful, moving , inspiring, the voice of an angel, sincere and heartfelt!!

[@mrleetheteacher]

Although you wrote “Show Me The Way” 30 years ago, it has stood the test of time as a song for finding our way through troubled waters. Thank you for your music and the meaning it gives us. I wish you continued good health and happiness in your life. Your music has made the world a better place. Even “Mr. Roboto” 🤖 (Just kidding - I love the Kilroy Was Here album!)

[@noahreaves8235]

Sean Morrison on KZbin I bet. His channel is just bashing Dennis for anything he does. His recent video what's making fun of Dennis for singing this and for his appearance. He is an awful person. Dennis is one of the greatest people to walk the earth.
