@Mathew Paul basically Dennis had taken over and was just doing all his own music. More melodramatic and orchestrated. Less rock. This was kind of the epitome. After the 80s a lot of people mocked the 80s, especially for stuff like this. But now that we’re decades separated…. People can appreciate for what it is. ❤

Never heard this before. This is quite a gem

[@mikereiss4216]

I'm not surprised. It's a very underrated song these days. In fact I think after this album was out for a while this song (and album) pretty much just disappeared almost entirely. It didn't help that Styx never really had anything as commercially successful since then.

[@lindaramirez5044]

As this song says "The problem's plain to see. Too Much technology. Machines to save our lives. Machines dehumanize". It's incredible how this verse has too much importance now.

"Too much technology" is a bold claim for a synthesizer band to make.

@@danieldonoso5371 amigo entendistes mal. Kilroy queria decir lo contrario a lo que dices, kilroy was here era usado por los soldados estadounidenses parfa indicar que alli habian pasado ellos, limpiado y controlado, es decir si el protagonista era KILROY era porque el se veia como un humano que luchaba contra la dictadura de las maquinas. hace referencia a la WWII donde los soldados de USA lberaban areas antes controladas por los nazis...digamos que ese es el significado GENERICO de kilroy en la cancion..pero ahora viene el ESPECIFICO: Dennis DeYoung cuenta la historia de Robert Orin Charles Kilroy, una estrella de rock que fue atrapado por la MMM (La Mayoría para la Moralidad Musical), para luego ser enviado a prisión, de la cual escapó disfrazado de robot. La historia continua hasta que conoce a una persona llamada Jhonathan Chance, líder de un movimiento de rock underground seguidores de “Kilroy”. el rock estaba prohibido en esa epoca futura distopica senalada en la cancion, es decir en el futuro prhibirian muchas cosas...y llegamos ya a esa epoca lamentablemente

I always thought it was their best song. It has that new wave sound of the 80s, it is catchy and the lyrics were prophetic with its warnings about the dangers of technology and how it can dehumanize people which is what is literally happening now. I think what broke up the band was DYoung's insistence on having a Rock Opera concert tour and the other band members thought it was dumb.

Man has been using technology since the dawn of time. Computers are culimonation of many different scientific fields and hundreds of years of advancement. So to complain that we have too much technology is just, well, not very specific or interesting and comes from the mind of a layman with no appreciation for scientific thought. The actual problem is we have too many humans.

To help people that are reading, this song ( whole album, actually) tells a story! To sum it up, Mr. Roboto is about a famous rock musician named Kilroy who get thrown into prison because in the future America is a dystopia run by fascist tyrants, who outlaw and ban music. This was bad news for Kilroy, because this meant he was to be thrown into prison. Honestly I'm sure there is more to this story but thats the overgeneralised plot. The prison is completely run by, well, robots. Kilroy, (Little fun fact about the album, the title is called "Kilroy Was Here" which in this case has two meanings. One meaning is the reference to one of the first ever "memes" It was used back in the 1940's by soldiers of WWII. The other meaning is of course, referring to our protagonist of this rock opera, Kilroy.) Kilroy knocks out a robot guard when it enters his prison cell, and disguises himself inside the robot. (Hence "Somewhere to hide") Then he manages to escape prison in the suit. Thats why he keeps saying "Thank you" over and over. Thats the story of Mr. Roboto. Its not the whole Kilroy Was Here album, but its a piece of it.

We didn't actually realistically expect to see high tech AI driven robots in the real world like we're beginning to see. The first driverless robo taxi without operator controls is set to be announced on August 8th this year. Elon Musk is the super star CEO of all time, but not sure if gonna save America and keep the world a human one that represents the will of the people for it's a global corporation that oversees all the companies, universities, countries, and everyone who was blessed to have great jobs. For the rest of us who speak truth instead of going along with whatever plan, there's not this greatest country we thought was our country for it's the global corporation of WEF.

Totally agree! I know this album is controversial with Styx fans but I've always liked it. I love Dennis DeYoungs voice!

@@lauriecaldas This album is a masterpiece to me.

@@jasondudash5501, Right? A lot of Styx fans knock it but I really love it!

[@jasondudash5501]

@@lauriecaldas Yep. That's right! I can't believe quite a few fans hate this album. Even Styx's guitarists, Tommy Shaw and James "JY" Young hated the album themselves too! I've had this album for almost 30 years and had Styx's Caught In The Act, Live Video for 25 years, and had the DVD for 12 years plus bonus videos! I've always loved the album til this day. And I never knew that Tommy Shaw and James "JY" Young hated the Kilroy Was Here album until after I watched Styx on VH1's Behind The Music.
