LYRICS:
TO THE GOOD OLD DAYS
It’s so hard to say goodbye
So I promise not to cry
But any tears that might be shed
are only tears of joy
And I thank my lucky stars
That we’ve come so very far
Rising up against the odds
To where we are today
And though there may be sadness
Let’s all raise a glass
Cheers to us and all that’s passed
To the good old days
When the world was new
When we still believed
Dreams could come true
To the good old days
And to all our friends
May the memories last
May they never end
So we’ll go our several ways
Wishing somehow we could stay
Safe again so safe again in all our
i nnocence
When we all would sing along
As they played our favorite song
Dreaming of tomorrow’s
that seemed so limitless
So as we come together
let’s make this moment last
Here’s to us and to the past
To the good old days
To the sweetest years
To the ones we loved
Through the laughs and tears
To the times ahead
May we all forgive
To the good old days
Long may they live
Funny how the years have slipped away
Always there beyond our grasp.
Funny how it all seems looking back
Oh oh oh
To the good old days
When we all were young
To the love we shared
May our songs be sung
To the times ahead
May we all forgive
To the good old days
May they always live
A.D. 2020
And so my friends
I’ll say goodbye
For time has claimed it’s prize
But the music never dies
Just listen and close your eyes
And welcome to paradise
Song written by Dennis DeYoung. Duet with Julian Lennon.
WE LOVE YOU DENNIS! ALWAYS HAVE, ALWAYS WILL! 🦊🔥🌈😎🕛🦊🔥🌈😎🕛
Dennis:
I think you are a complete artist and please continue to release more and more songs.
The old dream of “Styx” is over and very corrupted by greed and power.
We need more of your song to get us through these times and life.
Amen.
Thank you Dennis for sharing all these beautiful memories with us. And beautiful music too!
The day I met Dennis back in 2019, at a show in Alabama was absolutely amazing. My great grandmother had passed away that night, but my family told me to go to the concert anyways, so I did. I got to get a picture with him after the show. He probably thought I didn’t know any songs considering I was only about 17 then, but I’m actually a huge fan. I own every album he’s ever made. I even got his signature on my paradise theater album, which was the first vinyl I ever owned. Thanks To Mr DeYoung, and Styx.
How could anyone not want this guy in their band
Dennis, I don't care what the posers in the current version of Styx say, you, John and Chuck are and always will be the heart and soul of one of the greatest rock bands of all time! God Bless you my friend...
This is very special Dennis. While I have been a huge fan for over 40 years I have never had the pleasure of meeting you. However your mom did walk into a Tower Records in San Diego once and my wife was checking her out. She saw the last name DeYoung on the CC and shyly asked if she was in any way related to you. Your mom told her that she was your mother and my wife then spilled all the beans about what a fan I was of you and Styx. And that was it. Some time after that you mom returned to the same store and presented a poster to give to me that was from Desert Moon and you signed it. What? Mind blown. Thanks for all the years of wonderful music filled with positive lyrics and beautiful harmonies.
Dennis. Now we know a little more on how the great music came about. Lesson learned do what you are passionate about and the rest will come or at the very least you will live a happy life. Thanks for the memories and great music.
You are beloved by so many of us, Dennis. Thank you SO much. God bless!
I finally got to watch to watch this. Loved hearing your story - sounds like my family stories. Sincerest condolences on the loss of Darcy. You are as decent as you are talented. Hope to see you in concert again.
Thanks for sharing all this personal memories, Dennis.
Thanks for everything, Dennis. When I listen to you I always remember the good old days.
I PRAISE GOD ALMIGHTY THAT I LEARNED TO SING WITH DENNIS AS AN EXAMPLE OF WHAT A GREAT SINGER COULD BECOME! THANK YOU!!!🦊😎🌈🕛🔥
So sorry for your loss. My sympathies go out to you and your family. This video makes me cry every time. Lost my dad in 95. There aren't enough words to tell you how much your music means to me. Your music has always been there for me. With a voice still as crystal clear as it was back in the day, you still belt those songs out like no other. Thank you Dennis, thank you for your music. It means the world to me.
You touched so many lives Dennis. More than you'll ever know. Thank you❤
I could listen to Dennis talk all day long. It's funny, I had a '65 VW bug, and my dream car was a '68 Stingray. I ended up with a '77 Trans Am. anyway, his version of The Best of Times at home during the pandemic really boosted my spirits, and I appreciate it so much
Aside from being one of the best singers and song writers of the past 50 years, you are also one of the most loving and caring men I have seen. I can see it in your face and hear it in your voice when you talk about family and friends past and present and can see how you work to not break when talking about John. Those stories and rumors from those "other" guys are just that. I met you and You are NOTHING like that. A perfectionist, yes, but you take time out to talk to fans, and aren't rude or anything. Love you Dennis.
thanks for sharing all your memories ! i love all the AD songs
Thank you for sharing!
Альбом 2021 26 East, Vol 2 просто SUPER, SUPER, SUPER. слава и хвала тебе, Dennis. Замечательная красивая музыка, прекрасное исполнение. Вы молодец!!!
The Happy Sad thing about a long life is getting to meet and know and say goodbye to so many people.
That was Beautiful
I love both vol. 1& 2 of 26 East 💕.
To The Good Old Days is beautiful 💖
Thanks for all the music through the years!! And so very sorry about your sister Darcy. I almost lost my brother a few years ago in his 40’s due to a brain infection. Nothing prepares you for how hard it is to lose a sibling. Thinking of you and all the family.
Thanks for sharing, Dennis. I've been a huge fan of yours for 43 years. I have loved everything you have done, well maybe not the plexiglass piece of furniture, but the rest, yes! I so hope to see Hunchback one day.
Sorry for your losses.
Great video. thanks Dennis.
I loved everything this man ever did. When I was 7 years old they were recording "Man of Miracles" down the street from me in a studio in this dumpy little town I lived in. LOL I followed them for many years. This new song and video are amazing! Love it!
How about a tour with Dennis with Steve Perry and or Lou Gramm? "The real voices tour" Sounds like a license to print money to me.
This is all that matters, family. The past made you and we all got to enjoy everything you do. Please don't be last album. We may never get to another concert. I love these videos. You are the voice. Only a voice like yours ever, the best. Funny, sweet video. Make some more..
Thank you for sharing and going through your old photos & films.
I enjoy watching the music video everytime.
What a story… a life lived fully and with much joy. May God bless you and yours, Dennis!
See you in Jacksonville … soon, I hope!
This hits home, especially the beautiful images of you and your daughter. I'm at this stage right now and wish it would never end.
You are even more awesome now than you were back when I was in high school, and you were amazing back then. Thank you for continuins to share with your fans, new and ongoing.
Thanks so much for being such a big part of my teenage years during the 70's. Your incredible music and lyrics are an inspiration a gift to mankind. Thanks for sharing these photos from your life. What an amazing story! I hope you have many more great years of creativity, peace, health, and contentment.
Thanks for sharing these beautiful pics! Also, thanks for great concert many years ago in Shreveport La.
Dennis, you are so freaking funny, along with being one of my all time hero's and musicians, thanks for the fun memories. Love Ya Man. Since I was born in Chicago, I am a big fan of Italian Beef, my grandma made it from scratch, you gotta know how good that is! Peace Brother...Love Ya man...
Best show I ever saw in St.Charles, Mo few years back. And I've seen alot of shows 👍. I almost didnt go, glad i did.
I saw him a couple years ago here in El Paso Texas my God he put a hell of a good show then still hold up those notes did a good job
Thank you so much for sharing the background behind all these precious videos and photos! Little Matt reminds us of Brandon's sweet, goofy little nephew 🙂 we're sorry again for the passing of Darcy 🙏 I lost my grandfather last week, my last grandparent to pass away, and this song matches the melancholy longing for the "good old days" of fishing trips in Grampa's boat, Independence Day picnics, "Grandma's Christmas Party," my grandma's playful nurturing nature, and my grampa's quiet, witty humor ♥️
Thank you for sharing your family with us. You have had a blessed life.
Nice Styx need you back just saying man just saying you are The Voice
Remember stopping by at your garage with Bob Alexander and trying to get you to go out with us but you were determined to keep on practicing and, boy, did that decision pay off for you and your family!! So happy you made it big, Dennis, and you are still as sweet as you were when we first met. Take care.
THANK YOU FOR POSTING ✌ AND 💘 💘 GREAT TO SEE 👀 YOU DENNIS.
hay there he is,, hope everything is good,,
Dennis, I've been a life long fan of your story and your music. I just want to say thank you for The Best of Times:)
Dennis, thank you so very much for sharing your memories of all those photos. Honestly, as a fan of your music both with Styx and solo, I truly appreciate all of your quick stories and recollections. Thank you again. I loved seeing and learning about “the good ole days”.
What a treat, and what a rich life you have had.
What an awesome, interesting and entertaining video commentary! As a Styx fan from way back, the two albums Dennis put out in the last couple years were as good as the best from the Styx era - what a treat!
Honestly Dennis, at first I didn't think I was going to like this video...
Boy was I wrong. Enjoyed every minute of it. Thanks for sharing it with us. 👍
Dennis, thanks for this and all the great songs. 😎👍
This was fun. A great insight to my favorite performer. I could see and appreciate his losses and his love for his family and good friends. Thank you for sharing.
I used to listen your song when I was young, around 1994.. "when I wake up the morning, I turn on the news, to find that we so far to go".. later I've learnt it was a song about the gulf war.. and became one of my favorite songs of my life.. still have to turn on the news and still so far to go... Thanks Dennis. Edge Of The Century album was real lovely memory of my life. Still love to listen "Love At First Sight" and "All In A Day's Work".
Mr DeYoung gets emotional 🍻
Thats a great video. I saw you in 1977 in Yakima Washington at Yakima Valley College i have been a styx van since. Thanks art
Dennis, Please come to Milwaukee . Ive seen you at least 5 times now but have always wanted a photo with you but not sure how to achieve this off my bucket list. Your music has always been magical and always has gotten me through the worst of times. The current lineup of Styx could never compare to the magic you bring on stage, as a human being and in your music.
Thanks for sharing Dennis!! Love getting all these insights.
John played radio and TV...lol. My Dad met Paul Stanley of Kiss once. My Dad said to him, I hear you paint. Paul said yes I do. Paul replied, do you paint? Dad responded, Yes. Paul said, what do you paint? Dad said-Houses. Man, I could not stop laughing. Both guys just being honest. Thanks for sharing Dennis!
Dennis Deyoung was the member of Styx during the 1970s through 2000s. Now, he is almost an REO Speedwagon. Have a great weekend.
Enjoyed
Great video! Nice to see you wearing a hoodie from our country, a neighbour and friend. Merci! Monsieur DeYoung.
Hi Dennis! Enjoy your music through the years both in Styx and your solo work. Hope to catch your show in Alberta, Canada someday. Great hoodie by the way!
I went to High School with your daughter, she used to sit behind me in history class. Me and my buddy used to get kicked out into the hall all the time. I kinda had a little crush on her but never told her.
One day the girl she sat next to and us boys all were talking rock and roll (Sammy Hagar just joined Van Halen, but it seemed like all the kids liked RUN DMC and I hated that fact) Anyway, she asked us what our favorite Styx song was and my buddy said 'Renegade'
I said 'Lady' and I remember how her face lit up and her smile.
I was always drawn to the songs you sang and still prefere those.
My 1st concert my Mom brought me to was Dottie West at Old Chicago in '79...lol, my second my brother brought me to was Mr. Roboto in '83.
This was you Prestwick house if I remember correctly. We use to drive by trying to get a peek of you. Fortunately for us, it did happen one day. You were out washing that red Mercedes convertible and we’re gracious enough to give us a wave.
Dennis!!!!!! This is so freaking sweet! I admit, I cried listening to this song for the first time. The lyrics and sound are so powerful. Thank you so much for taking the time to give us a glimpse into your life and see you and your family. I appreciate so much that you are such a family man. I am so sorry to hear about Darcy, and am praying for you and her family.
Cheers to the memories sir.
Hey Dennis why don't you just go play music with those guys? It would bring joy to so many people. Love your art my friend.
Dennis, this is an awesome shared video, and a in look into your life, and where you get the music. I've always been a Deyoung fan, and Styx hadn't been the same. I saw you on the paradice tour in Peoria and probably the best show over the years I've seen. Thank you again for all you do.
We love you Dennis! ALWAYS HAVE, ALWAYS WILL!!!😎🕛🌈🦊🔥
my dream in life is to see you in person since I was little I have been listening to your music sounds because my dad keeps playing all your songs on styx even now I keep going over and over and over and over to your songs, I hope you can read this I'm from the Philippines, you're a great idol, I'd like to take a photo with you in person, that's my dream, because I don't have the money to pay to see you, you're the number 1 fan in my heart, even though I always have a photo of you, sir idol ❤️
Where are you, Dennis? Been following your music since Desert Moon.
Thanks Dennis! Love getting these insights. :)
Love hearing the memories.
Good stuff!
Hey, Mr Dennis deyoung ,we haven't heard from you in 7 mo's. What's the latest, hope your healthy and all is well. Henry in CT.
Give us a tour of the wall please!
Dennis, I always enjoy your posts. I'm curious about whether or not you'll be touring soon? I miss not being able to see you live. Wonderful song! Never let the music die Dennis! Cheers! From, Utah.
You mean to tell us that you don't really dwell amidst Magritte's trees, stepping forward out of the darkness on the rocks and water like a modern (or modren?) mythological character? My childhood has just been hopelessly upended. 😭
Hey Dennis! 💜💜💜
Dennis DeYoung for the next upcoming videos, I would like to see you do some reaction videos to your other music videos. The ones that came out back in the '80s.
I want to see a reaction video of you reacting to your first solo song, which became a huge hit and it's music video Desert Moon.
I also want to see you do a reaction video to the music video, don't wait for heroes. I also want to see you do a reaction video to the music video of call me, I also want to see you do a reaction video to the music this is the time. And of course I want to see you do a reaction video, to the music video boomchild.
Dennis I hope you can do these as new upcoming videos for your RUclips channel, that would be so nice if you can do that for me and the rest of your fans
Dennis DeYoung for another upcoming video, can you do a reaction video of you reacting to the music video proof of heaven ?
It would be so nice if you can do a reaction video of proof of heaven as well, I love that song and of course I love the music video. It's really good, it also featured rock legend and guitar player Jim Patrick.
Please make sure to do a reaction video to that music video as well, for another upcoming video for your RUclips channel. Please do this for me and your fans Dennis
:)
Hi Dennis. When did you realize that you had a great singing voice?
Maybe you could do some country music too 😀
I want to meet with you in heaven so we can sing together to God Almighty! You can worship UNBRIDLED up there! I know, I have been there!!!🌈🦊🕛🔥😎
Hello Dennis, I thought you have done this music video reaction from before.
I don't understand, did you decide to repost this video reaction ?
I'm really confused, what happened ?
PROPHET BRADLEY U-TUBE IS WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING FOR!😎🕛🔥🌈🦊😎🕛🔥🌈🦊
The other night I was surfing the tv channels and came across Lady Gaga's salute to Tony Bennett. When the almost 100 year old Tony Bennett came out to sing, I immediately thought of old man Dennis DeYoung. (Actually, Tony Bennett looks about 10 years younger than Dennis although he is actually 20+ years older.) Tony also sung great and his voice didn't show any degradation unlike DDY. althoughDDY is a tenor. It's funny how some musicians age more than others.
Hi Dennis - this reaction video was just posted. I think you'll really enjoy their reaction - especially of you :) ruclips.net/video/zuU-zaMmu20/видео.html
I want to meet you in Heaven! Will you please accept Lord Jesus Christ as your PERSONAL SAVIOUR? I need to know that you will be there!!!😎🕛🌈🦊🔥
WE LOVE YOU DENNIS! ALWAYS HAVE, ALWAYS WILL!!! 🔥🌈😎🕛🦊
John played radio and TV...lol. My Dad met Paul Stanley of Kiss once. My Dad said to him, I hear you paint. Paul said yes I do. Paul replied, do you paint? Dad responded, Yes.
