Styx - Come Sail Away | REACTION

[@johnmyhres3917]

Yes, and Foreigner

When my daughter was a little girl, she loved this song. Even when she got older, it would soothe her. She had many medical problems starting at age 4 with rheumatoid arthritis. She died in April 2019. So I cried through your song today, but it is mixed grief and joy. I’ll finish with her message. Bee Kind 💕🐝

[@lisas8648]

I have been to many concerts in my 57 years but the best all around sound, lights,stage and crowd was Styx Paradise Theater tour at the Cow Palace in San Francisco I was 15 years old I will never forget thousands of people singing this song together! The show started with Dennis DeYoung coming up through the stage playing his white grand piano.. I'm so glad I grew up during this time in music. I am enjoying reliving it though watching you discover it. 😀

[@kperry1969]

Styx is incredible. You've only scratched the surface, my friend. I enjoy your reactions. Peace.

[@royal1investments]

They blow doors on Queeny which have about 4 songs that I think are good or great, Styx easily have a least a dozen songs that are good to great, in my opinion but I know I am not alone on this.

[@Starrygirl63]

Ohmygosh the memories...... 💜 I saw Styx live for their Paradise Theater and Mr Roboto concert album tours and then about 15 years ago I saw them live a third time with REO Speedwagon and Survivor. Since then I’ve watched Tommy Shaw’s “Sing for the Day” which y’all ALL have GOT to see 💖💕❤️🎶

This is a wonderful song. Dennis DeYoung has one of the best voices in the business. My personal favourites by Styx are “Lady” and “Show Me the Way.”

[@robertcartier5088]

"Lady" is beautiful! It was from their second album... their only real hit until the 4th album, Equinox, when they exploded onto the international scene with "Suite Madam Blue"! They went back and re-issued Lady after they had made it big... ;-]

Styx was my mother's favorite band. Thank's for the moment of nostalgia. A track of theirs that I personally love is "I'm Ok." From what I've read, the organ from the St James Cathedral in Chicago was used in the recording of that track.

' Come Sail Away' has always given me goosebumps. Today was no different.

[@johnlarsen2766]

Graduated high school in 1978 in Seattle. “Come sail away” was the theme song of our graduation ceremony, which was awesome! Such an appropriate tune for the occasion! Do yourself a favor and check out the title track from that album “The Grand Illusion” and “Fooling Yourself”(the angry young man). “Crystal Ball” is also a great one, and “Suite: Madam Blue”. Enjoy my friend! 🎸

It took me until age 46 to admit that I was an atheist. (I was raised Jewish, and for a long while it felt as if saying "Come on, there's no God. You think millions of innocent children would be dying in horrible pain RIGHT NOW, if some "God" could stop it?" was betraying all my cousins and co-religionists who died for their faith.) That said, I think this song is the closest I'll ever come to a religious experience. "A gathering of angels appeared above my head They sang to me this song of hope, and this is what they said" Bless you, Dennis.

Sell it to our favorite music reactor by pointing out that Derringer got Weird Al on the track that led to Al's success. And I had the "All American Boy" album back in the day, but alas, I bought it on 8-track, so naturally within a year it got munched in the player.

He loved this type of music. Me more of the southern rock and heavier sounds. Smiling ear to ear. Great times! Man I need to send this reaction to Bert I begin to tell myself. Sorrow yet still smiling a bit, memory of extreme physical pain, shaking like a leaf, crying, as I am going thru colo-rectal cancer treatment when I get the csll. No this can't be, I was just talking to him the other day. Begging my wife to tell me it's not true. Alas, God had decided that Bert was needed in heaven. Seven years ago a couple of days before Memorial Day my older and only brother was called to Heaven. Thank you for these memories. The great, the good, the sad. These are what make each of us who we are. Believe me, you have just made a ordinary night better for this old man.

I have heard this song and others many times before. It was when I was watching Jamel's reaction that they all hit, which is what made it so great. He would have loved the reaction as much as we do.

Most of the bands I like best are the ones that had multiple songwriters and multiple lead vocalists in the band.

Yeah, about 4:45, when Jamel started diggin' on the synth-"dolphin" sounds, knowing what was coming up after the second bridge, all I could think was "hold on....sh*ts about to get weird!"

[@labyfan1313]

I was thinking just wait it's not dolphins, it's aliens! lol

[@jibsydan]

One of my favorite songs. Remember singing this in the car my entire childhood with my dad

[@frankhatton2089]

We grew up to a wide variety of great music. Styx has lots of great songs.

[@bdmention]

For a little humor, check out South Park's Cartman sing this song.

[@Helenahandbasket1971]

I was coming to say this!!!!

[@LisaMarieD]

I can't listen to this without hearing Cartman!! haha

[@ltrainor4078]

I was literally just coming here to mention this. I can't listen to this or "In the Ghetto" without thinking of Cartman. Lol

[@lennyvalure5829]

Yeah as much as I love this song and that show, Cartman ruined it 😝

[@Evan056]

@@ltrainor4078 Same, but I'd add "O Holy Night" as well. lol

[@Michael-tl2yj]

We learned this song in music class, cool teacher, memories of school, must do the cars candy o, or good times rock n roll

[@SuprousOxide]

South Park had an episode where Cartman had to sing the whole song whenever he heard part of it

[@thumpyloudfoot864]

That was mine and so many of my friends introduction to Styx....

[@kathrynroat9139]

Hilarious episode!

[@jgehbinv]

Masterful music ... song of substance ....

[@x0539p]

Loved going roller skating and this music being played. Good times were had.

[@Dameduse823]

"I don't know where I heard it..." South Park, I'm going with south park

[@interceptingfist5682]

Freaks and geeks

[@thomasjohn3835]

Eric Cartmans version is actual better lmao.

[@inferiomusic]

@@nevets3164 exactly what I was gonna say

[@Wungolioth]

It was also in the season 1 finale of Cloak and Dagger, it figured quite prominently in the episode.

[@melodyrichardson5051]

Disney's Atlantis.

[@kimberlinibambini1988]

“Babe”, “Lady”.. for some of that quality time with your lovely wife-☺️😉. ❤️💛💟☮️

[@adamp2029]

Now listen to Cartman sing it!

[@jessegifford7913]

Yes. For the love of god, yes.

[@davidgessin-mccully3919]

Only if he wants to ruin it for himself forever I can’t help but hear Cartman doing it same with In the Ghetto 😂😂😂

[@robertreichle1]

I never hear any version of this without Cartman's voice taking over in my head. You guys...

[@paulmeyers4550]

YOU deserve all the respect too. Breaking down genre barriers. And it shows in your face when you have that "AHAH!" moment. Can tell by looking that a lot of it is touching your soul. Stay blessed brother!

[@sherryramirez6329]

i have heard this song live and it sounds even better. Its a beautiful song

[@jefflathrop7313]

[@NiamhCreates]

My daughter (age 7)'s favorite Styx song is "Babe". I hold her in my arms and sing it to her while dancing. ❤

[@NiamhCreates]

BTW, her name is Brigit, so if you react to "Babe", could you please give a shout-out to my daughter Brigit? ❤❤❤ Thank you!!
