This song is an outlier of Styx songs (even though they have a wide variety of styles) like "Mr. Roboto" is not their usual style. "Boat On The River" was a big hit internationaly since it reminded so many of their folk songs, and here is a live "unplugged" version (I think from Japan 1981/1982). They also did an unplugged version of this song in their "Return To Paradise" reunion tour in 1996. I'd say even "Babe" is an outlier as a pure ballad. Styx has 3 songwriters and 3 lead vocalists, so each brings something different from their songs and to each others' songs when they collaborated. I'd suggest: "Prelude 12/Suite: Madame Blue", "Man In The Wilderness", "Castle Walls", "Lady" (and lots more). The most popular Syx songs are: "Come Sail Away", "Blue Collar Man", and "Renegade". For "Come Sail Away" listen to the album version or from the "Return To Paradise" concert in 1996, and NOT the cut-down MTV "official" video. Check out the "lockdown" video Tommy Shaw made with the Contemporary Youth Orchestra of "Fooling Yourself"(ruclips.net/video/nECouHrb6aQ/видео.html); or the live performance from a few years ago(ruclips.net/video/xpYHgbjOIq0/видео.html).

Tommy Shaw is a great songwriter/musician. Still recording today. This is a mellow song of his.

Thank you for your reaction. I hope to see more Styx.
Styx has four different lead singers and songwriters.
Lady is Styx's first hit and it has their other lead singer.
Reminds me of all the time I spent on our cabin cruiser relaxing and fishing, so peaceful.
Tommy is playing a mandolin (little guitar) Dennis is on an accordion
Want to be amazed listen to their songs - then watch their concert at blossom with the Cleveland youth orchestra. It's incredible
