"Miss America " "Grand Illusion" so many, you really can't go wrong. Styx lyrics are pretty deep
Anything except Mr Roboto.
"Suite Madame Blue" is also a gem.
@@stlmopoet can you believe they were given a blank check to record that crap
@@aleinstein3223 Given their prior track record, yes. But it definitely was money down the toilet.
@@stlmopoet they also gave Fleetwood Mac a blank check and we got Tusk. ?
I was in Junior high when this came out and was just getting into Styx, having just discovered “The Grand Illusion” a year before. This album, “Paradise Theater” was huge. Check out “Fooling Yourself,” “Man In The Wilderness,” “Renegade.”
Me too. I was in 8th grade, and this progressive album was like no other. I'm not sure if the Grand Illusion was before or after Paradise. I know that it was a time where Pink Floyd and Queen were high up on my favorites. I may or may not have had that album handed down to me before Paradise came out. My memory just fails me on my discovery order of Styx.

Same here (grade 7 slow-dance bum-grab-song 😁 )... It seems Brad and Lex have a lot of middle aged folk fans 😲
@@CocOnUtsUniverse Middle aged folks who would be more than happy to party with these two. I figured it out, Pieces Of Eight in 78 was my introduction. I probably heard Grand Illusion too, then this album came out. The etching on the vinyl was awesome.
Renegade! I remember that from when I was little!😘👍
My son was working at a Hotel Casino a few years ago. He set up for concerts and Weddings etc. He was setting up for Styx concert, and was there for 🎤 mic check. These guys actually asked the set up crew to shout out some songs, and they sung one to them. My son said that they are the nicest guys you'd ever meet.
My class of 81 prom night theme song so much dope going around glad i survived the 80s ...
My favorite song from this album is "Snowblind". It's got a much different sound than any other Styx music.
That one really jumped out to me as well.
That was one of the few James JY Young songs. Great tune
You have to go back to some of thir earlier albums to hear other James Young led songs, but they do exist. Put Me On from Crystal Ball is one of them. I'm Gonna Make You Feel It from Styx II also hits the spot.
Good call
@@rhopsi5620 Love "Half Penny, Two Penny".
Styx is phenomenal! I’ve seen them many times and they never disappoint. Always a great show.
ruclips.net/video/XFmHEVtUh5k/видео.html
The lead singer on this song is Dennis DeYoung. He had a hit song when he went solo, Desert Moon. I think you two will enjoy it.
STYX is it!!! So many great tunes. Tommy Shaw has been one of my musical heroes since the 70's..."Rockin' the Paradise". Is a must.
Brad & Lex, I'd recommend "Too Much Time On My Hands" next for you!!
Paradise Theatre was a huge album for Styx. Looking back, it really marked the end of the 70's for me musically even though it was made in 1980. Great memories.
I remember when this album came out. We bought vinyl back then, and this one had the Paradise Theater marquis etched into the vinyl. You could see it if you held the album up to the light just right.
Wow! I completely forgot about the etching on the vinyl.
@@rintrah40 To tell the truth, I forgot too. Only when I turned on this reaction, did I recall. I guess I'm getting old, where memories just pop up at any given moment.
Got it here in the U.K. when it was released! Great album.
@@martinkulkarni3569 Seriously? I know they had a lot of albums by then, this being the tenth, but for a band from my home of Chicago, I'm surprised it was globally released right away.
@@mgordon1100 Actually, I bought it in 1981, a year after it was release, so think it you might be right. It may have only been available in the UK in 1981.
Loved this reaction to a huge Styx hit that applies more to today than it did back when "Best of Times" was first released. Gotta check out "Miss America", "Too Much Time On My Hands", "Boat On The River", "Queen of Spades", "Snowblind", "Crystal Ball", "Lorelei", "Suite Madame Blue" or "Castle Walls" next. So many hits that reflect a huge, unparalleled arc of different musical styles and variety thanks to 3 different songwriters and lead singers. Looking forward to getting into it with Styx again soon.
That makes 5 Styx songs so far, plenty more to go. Look down though the comments, they are there. Miss America, Suite Madam Blue, Lorelei, Grand Illusion. Crystal Ball, Too Much Time on My Hands, Rockin the Paradise, Boat on the River, and more.
"Midnight Ride" from the Equinox album, before Tommy Shaw. When Shaw heard that song, he decided he wanted to be in this band
I remember Too Much Time On My Hands from when I was little.👍😘
Styx lyrically was decades ahead of their time.
I get what you are saying but they were singing about how people really felt in the early 80s, as bad as we think things are now a lot of people felt the same way 40 years ago.
The guitar in "Miss America" is amazing!
I absolutely love this band I've been listening to them since the 70s
There were so many great bands out when Styx was around that they slipped under my radar for the most part back then, but as the decades have gone by I have learned to appreciate them more with each passing year.
A truly under-rated all time great rock and roll band.
Dennis de Young (this guy) and Steve Walsh' (Kansas) vocals were in a league of their own at their peak
Great Great vocals. And a good song here
We were incredibly spoiled musically in the 70s
Grew up on Styx! " Crystal Ball" is my fav!
When this came out in 1979, the U.S. was in a similar place as today. But we got through it then, and we will again.
It was 1981, but written during 1980 (the Carter misery index year)
Watching how giddy Lex gets to the simple things are the best moments.. you two are a a great duo to how Brad takes care of the Lyrics and Lex is left to enjoy the moment..
I grew up in Chicago. I saw them play at a high school gym before they were famous. Seeing them next month in Tampa with REO Speedwagon & Loverboy. Excited
I was in Jr high when this came out. I love Styx. "Lady" is my favorite song by them-still get goosebumps when I hear it.
The 70s were packed with amazing rock bands (non-metal), and Styx is among the greatest. Their catalog of music is extensive and they had massive radio hits for 10+ years. Dennis DeYoung is one of two lead singers...much like the Beatles or the Eagles (yes they had more than 2 singers). His voice is distinctive and he had some hits in his solo career as well. 🤘
Whoa, how did I miss this one? This was THE Prom song of 1981; there's a live video from the tour where audience members are not only singing full throat, but cuing John Panozzo's drum hits as well.
This was the cornerstone of Dennis DeYoung's most fully-realized concept album, telling the story of the decline and fall of a Chicago neighborhood. A hidden gem from this album is "Half-penny, Two-penny", which is from the tall guitarist, James Young. In concert, they would segue from that into Dennis's show-closer, "A.D. 1958". Very effective.
I was a long haired hippie from Colorado, going to college in Florida. My roommate talked me into going to see a band called Styx, never heard them before. The show was fantastic (Grand Illusion tour in...1977?) An unbelievable tight and talented band and been a fan ever since.
This was my high school graduation song back in 1984. I know, I'm old. As a result, I have very fond memories of it. Thanks for reacting to it.
It was mine too.
Pretty sure a good deal of us here are "old". Played a lot of Styx back in the day. Whew.
@@Wraithlen Still do. 😂
I love when Brad said it’s like a recipe for happiness
One of my favourite 70’s and 80’s bands. Saw them live on this tour. Simply awesome!
I was a freshman when this came out. Very much part of the soundtrack of my HS years. Slow dancing on a Friday night in the gym after the football game vibes. Sam and Lindsay Weir stuff.
Rockin the paradise starts the same way
Brad hit the nail on the head! Saw them live in 1984, Greensboro,N.C. ''Kilroy Was Here'' tour. Was amazing and they did a lot of their old stuff as well!
Another great message is "Grand Illusion" you can do that one next. The message applies today even more than when it was written!
Grand Illusion and Miss America. And Dennis Deyoung’s solo song Desert Moon.
From their Jan of 1981 album "Paradise Theater".....very much some of the music for my wife and I back in high school.
That’s Tommy Shaw doing the high pitch vocals. That’s how he earned the job as their new guitar player. Hitting the high note in “Lady”.
shaw did not sing onlady he was not in the grouop then. james young sings the highh part on this song
This song is from a concept album about the rise and fall of the Paradise theater. So when he mentions "Paradise" he is referring to this theater.
Saw them in Vegas last year. Met up with the bass player in a restaurant by chance afterwards. Very sweet man, but he wouldn't let us go. A little out of his head I believe. You're a kid one day, the next your idols are old and punch-drunk. Love them still.
7th grade dance theme..."The Best of Times." Played this toward the end of the dance...slooooowwwww danced with this really cute 8th grade girl, Paulette... Good times, good times... 😎
Lex looks so cute in Pink. "She is pretty in pink"
Styx is still on tour on they Kick Ass! Lawrence Gowan is now on keyboards and he is phenomenal.
Styx , what more could Ya want , They are top shelf rock n roll , great lyrics , great vocals , great guitars everything a great band should be . Ya look nice dressed up Lex . Ya'll Rock On !
The guitar solos from the song has a bit of Isley Brothers "Voyage to Atlantis" and Babe was another one. One of the things people don't realize about Styx is. They're were one of the few rock bands or maybe the first since from that period to mixed R&B into their songs that is considered just a rock song. That's rare. Queen was another rock band that had the same caliber to do it but don't even come close like Styx has. Tommy Shaw and James Young didn't understand or realize from that period how much Styx with Dennis meant to the a lot of people until it was too late. Hope Styx gets induct to the Rock n roll Hall of Fame because they deserve it.
That shirt you are wearing is beautiful and suits you perfectly!!!! Love you guys!!!
STYX a class act there music will last the test of time always happy upbeat feel good !!
Outside of the NFL, nobody rocks shoulder pads like James Young (rhythm guitar) does.
When I got my first car at 16 in 1982 I went to Record Bar and bought four cassettes. Foreigner 4, REO Speedwagon Hi Infidelity, Journey Escape, and Styx Paradise Theater. If you haven't listened to Too Much Time On My Hands you need to. I think Lex would like that one.
I saw Kansas warm up for Styx, both very awesome. The man in green was Tommy Shaw who later was part of Damn Yankees.
The album this song came from (Paradise Theatre) is an amazing piece of rock history. Absolutely underrated.
Lex with the stank face on that guitar solo!! Love it hahaaa
Suite Madame Blue and Castle Walls are must hear Styx
My first ever concert was this 1981 Paradise Theater tour!
Wasn’t really a Styx fan, but I saw them on this, the Paradise Theater tour in NJ and was better than I expected..
We use to listen to this at the end of music class in school.
This song is also a lead in to one of their best songs, on this tune " A.D. 1928/Rockin' The Paradise" check it out, it really is ROCKIN!
I love the Italian guy singing it in "Big Daddy."
His voice is so clear and piercing, I love it! Great lyrics and harmonizing as well. Great reaction!
come on lex that familiar feeling Brad's talking about with that song.... it's the both of you together through life
Lex - that was hilarious - and the look on Brad's face - priceless !!! 🤣
You guys are on a roll lately playing my favorite songs from different bands.
Brad's face at the end cracks me up. :D
DeYoung is my favourite singer of Styx. Such a great voice. And the chorus too.. great band👌
Crystal Ball or Suite Madame Blue are bangers! Styx is my favorite American Classic Rock band seen them in concert. They are coming to Pittsburgh Pa and with Reo Speedwagon and im going!
Fess up Brad, you felt warm and fuzzy. 😄
Dennis DeYoung still has that powerful voice. Need to react to Too Much Time on My Hands (Tommy Shaw/guitarist sings lead), Lady '95, Babe, Don't Let it End, Rockin' the Paradise.
Great list of songs, they've already reacted to Lady '95, check it out 👍 I'd add Miss America to the list as well.
“Fooling Yourself” is a must listen.
Ive seen Them in concert 4 times they always are great
Styx is my all time favorite band.
They use the first stanza of this song to open the song 'Rockin in Paradise '. That may be where you heard it before.
Always A Soulful Taste of Romanticism! Harmonies Deeply Interwoven, With Those Master Piece Lyrics Along For The Ride- Styx Has Always Had A Great Sense For Their Audience -
Growing up in the land of styx'.... michiana..... whether it was Dennis or Tommy, styx' was always my favorite band in the early 80's....so many hits, so many memories
You and you’re mom lol. You’re a hoot Lex. Luv y’all’s reactions. 🤘🏻
It was a concept album regarding a real theatre (sorry! theater if you are American), Paradise Theater in Chicago. It opened in 1928 but closed only thirty years later 1958.
Saw them live, absolutely amazing
Tommy Shaw is so good...man...so good. My Favorte Styx artist, if not one of my favorit artists.
1983...My prom theme too. Thornridge High School, Dolton, IL
One of my favorites from them. I really enjoy Mr. Roboto and Too Much Time On My Hands.
These boys have alot of uplifting songs. Great musicians. They owned the radio for a time.
You need some Styx bangers. Shooz. Miss America. Born For Adventure. Put Me On. Crystal Ball🤘🏻
It felt familiar, cuz “It’s always, You and Me against the world, when you truly Love each other”……Since the beginning of time. ✌️
MOST of Styx songs have a great positive feel to their stuff, their lyrics, etc. It's hard not to smile at their songs. And their harmonization was always second to none.
Another song along this line is "Paradise Theatre"
That 'little man' is Tommy Shaw, my dear! One of the greatest singer/songwriter guitarists ever!!! If you really want to hear him shine, check out their song "Man in the Wilderness" That is my #1 fav by Styx closely followed by "Crystal Ball" which is another Tommy song.
Brad, you're with Lex... that makes it the best of times for you!
Brad and Lex, I love you guys! I really enjoy your expressions and break down for the songs/music you play together on videos. Keep it up and thanks for posting!
I had me a few STYX albums in the late 70s and early 80s.
I saw Styx play at a high school in CHICAGO in 1976. Tickets were $1.50. 😆 Please react to their song “Little Fugue in G/Father O.S.A.” Great memories! You will love it! Keep up the good work! 😎🎶❤️
the young man all dressed in green is Tommy Shaw...great guitarist plus I love when he does lead vocals!! he also went on to be part of the band Damn Yankees who's big hit High Enough is a great listen!!
Dennis DeYoung was the heart & soul of Styx, and what made them really unique. Unfortunately his ungrateful, greedy former bandmates JY & Tommy Shaw used his serious health issues in the late 90's to kick him out of the band he founded (nah maaan, they just want to rock!!) Since then Styx has done nothing memorable of note while Dennis is still making great music. For an at-home pandemic version he did of this a couple years ago check out ruclips.net/video/vVzx-VO0RpI/видео.html
Similar to when Journey kicked out Steve Perry, Styx sucked after they kicked out Dennis DeYoung
A bunch of Chicago kids made good!! One of their best tunes!!! Thank you!
Miss America is a must. Just saying..
Thanks for doing this channel 🤘
Right now is all we have and it’s the best. Love😂
Tommy Shaw on guitar. I believe he started with them when he was 16 years old if I'm not mistaken. Great band.
There’s a word for it Brad;
Anemoia. It’s a nostalgic sense of longing for a past you yourself have never lived. It is nostalgia for the “good ol' days”; more specifically, the good ol' days you are too young to have known.
This was the first song they played at my sister's graduation, as they passed out diploma's.
Lex making a good stank face on the guitar solo 🤣
I'm glad you guys started showing the band in the video again you can still see the lyrics as well as the band I'll re- subscribe now
This song fits in today's world! end of paradise
They were a treat to see live, true pros. There's so much from them
MORE STYX PLEASE. Blue Collar Man , Castle Walls , Snowblind ,Crystal Ball.
When Lex makes that "stink face" during a guitar solo, you know she's totally immersed in the music. Great song pick! Check out the song "Rockin' the Paradise" from the same album - Paradise Theatre.
Hit after Hit. Great in Concert!
