I saw Styx in January at the Alabama Theater. I was 7 rows away from Lawrence. I tried so hard, but the tears just burst out. He made eye contact with me and saw me bawling. This song reminds me of my grandmother and the line "and we'll try, best that we can, to carry on" had gotten me through several suicidal episodes since she died. This band has quite literally saved my life.

The Grand Illusion album from where this song comes...is nearly a masterpiece. 8 songs...39 minutes...recorded in Chicago...it was released 7-7-77. Classic Rock critic Malcolm Dome rated the title track as Styx all-time greatest song. He also rated "Come Sail Away" as the band's 7th greatest song.

A song that starts off as a sailing trip and reminiscing about childhood dreams and memories. Then turns into a message from angels. Only to turn out that the angels were space aliens and flying off in a starship. They just don't write songs like this anymore.
