I saw them in concert. The concert ended, No Renegade! The lights went out. THEN, a light appeared on the microphone on the stage. Tommy was there, all you heard was "Oh Mama....." I literally got chills down my spine!
This video looks professionally produced. It sounds more studio than live. Nothing wrong with that. All professionally produced concert videos having editing. Just saying this is not a video made by a fan with a camcorder who uploaded the video 40 some years later.
I saw styx in 1997, 1998, 2002, 2005,2010,2015 and in 2021. All great shows. Even with lawrence Gowan as lead, I do miss Dinnis Deyoug, but times do change and he had his reasons for leaving
I saw Styx and REO Speedwagon at the old Pittsburgh Civic Arena. I'm going to age myself, but the best concert. I was so very lucky that my Daddy loved him and wanted to go to the concert, I was 8 years old. But I remember every last minute of the Elvis concert. My bubble was burst when it came over the speakers, announcing Elvis had left the building.
Where the heck did 41 years go? I was going into my senior year of high school in 1983, it seems like no time at all - we're still here! Who'd a thunk?!?
Truly would pay any amount to be able to live in these days. as an early 90s baby, I knew I was always too late for my time. This is where my soul belongs.
Shaw was waay underrated considering his massive talent. Glad decades later he finally got known to a new audience from " Supernatural" and TV shows( i.e.Ozark). Check out his first solo LP post-Styx, " Girls With Guns" had 2 hits off that in '85. Still touring with Styx.
I just happen to be watching the episode of Supernatural where that song is part of the soundtrack and I just happened to end up here. I'm part of a music circle and this song will be one that we'll cover.
So funny you mention “ Supernatural”. I just watched an episode 2 minutes ago with the boys escaping while this song plays 😂 Wanted to see a live performance!
I love the animation in the band. They seem to be really enjoying this so much. It's also funny to hear the girls screaming for Tommy Shaw, whom I never even would have pegged as a Heartthrob. So enjoyable!
I was listing to Styx's when I was 9 yo. When , I finally saw them in concert was 2017 with REO Speedwagon . It was at the old gone now Kahunaville in Wilmington, De. My home state Dennis DeYoung of course was no longer with them , But Tommy Shaw rocked them songs out. What an awesome concert.

Hey, hey Written by: Tommy Shaw Album: Pieces Of Eight Released: 1978 Lyrics provided by Musixmatch
Saw them in Myrtle Beach SC a long time ago. After the concert they went to the front of the stage, sat down, and shook hands with everyone that wanted to.
I was able to see them during the Kilroy Was Here tour with the original lineup and it was incredible. I would love to see the remaining members reunite for a final tour....
Wow what a time not a single phone insight not even a camera everytime I hear this song I think of the movie Billy Madison 😅I’m 39now I’ll be seeing them live for the first time in January in Las Vegas
I loved this song when it came out, when it was in Supernatural, my son loves it and (this will sound crazy) our bunny loves it. She loafs, closes her eyes, her ears go up and she chatters her teeth to show contentment, happiness and that she likes it.
Tommy Shaw and JY (James Young) usually traded off leads depending on who wrote the song. As I mentioned earlier, JY asked Tommy if he could play lead on this one. I know Tommy played lead on one of JY's songs but can't recall which one. My favorite Tommy Shaw song is "Crystal Ball", his first contribution to Styx. I think one of the best album was "Equinox", recorded right before Tommy Shaw joined the band. Give that album a listen sometime.
I didn't know this. I've always loved the songs I thought were all Tommy, but I could never stand that keyboard player. To me his voice was so shrill and whiny, not a fit with the rest at all. That's just me, though. Sort of like Hall and Oates, loved their voices, but hated their songs LOL
The actors Mark Hamill as Tommy Shaw Alex Trebek as Dennis DeYoung (previously played by Gabe Kaplan) James Hetfield (1988-94) as James Young (previously played by Michael Hayes of The Fabulous Freebirds) Freddie Mercury as Chuck Panozzo Don Henley as John Panozzo
you imagine correct I lived through this. Mr Roboto sucks and this changed the band. That was Dennis baby. Tommy and DY are rockers. this song is representative of the time 1977-1979 then the crap started.
@@daviddiamond1128 yep, almost every rock band veered off course in the 80s.. everything started getting pop-ish and techno-ish, disco-ish Remember the KISS videos with the head bands and they looked like aerobic workout videos?? 🤦.. 🤷... 🤬 But that was mostly pretty boy Paul and Gene just followed his lead. Almost every band made a lot of mistakes during those times after the 70s it was so sad and pathetic. And then came all the pretty boy, hair bands..

Oh my gosh that sounds incredible
Back in the days when Shows were real, no Autotune no bs
Special effects,all good and Raw Work
Ya they didn't use distortion lol. Ur dumb
imagine if hatsune miku went back in time

To think Tommy started this song on piano is mind-blowing!
And at 70 yrs old he can still give it his 110% in performance & Singing voice!!!! Just Spectacular!!!! 🤣🤣💓💓👍
And was to be an acoustic number until Dennis suggested playing the riff on electric guitar and the rest as they say was history.
This song was literally written by Tommy Shaw & produced by Dennis DeYoung!
I just came back from a Styx concert just 30 minutes ago in Phoenix
I just saw them (Jan 2022). They sang this and it sounded just as good. Tommy Shaw can still belt it out ❤️🔥
He sure does.

Where did you see them in 2022?
@@JohnHernandez-vf2nx You should listen to some of the interviews with Dennis. They basically kicked him out and won't take him back. Sad.
I have seen them together with SAGA in 80´s, one of the best concerts i´ve ever been ;)
Should be in The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
WTF Why aren’t they ??
Rock & Roll Hall OF Fame doesn't really know Rock & Roll, these guys are rock & roll for fuck sake. Shame on you RRHF!!!!@@mfjosh6422
They should definitely be in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame they’re one of the all many time great rock bands
Luv this band,rrhf, dolly Parton????I rst my case
??????? really ? i thought they were in already?
MAN THESE WERE THE TIMES!!! ❤❤❤❤❤
THE BEST OF TIMES!
I’ve been a Styx fan since the 70s and I never knew that David Spade was the lead singer. True story.😂
That title goes to either Tommy shaw who's leading this
Or Dennis Deyoung
Does look like him😂
Think it goes...Tommy Spade...
OMG, I'm dying! 😂😂😂
Hilarious. D. Deyong does look very much like D. Spade. Good one!
43 years later, he still sounds great singing this
I was so astounded when I watched this for the first time cause I’ve never heard such good and stable live vocals!
Shaw sure could run around the stage in 83
But he can still rock in 2023
He is now using pre-recorded tapes like his buddy Roger Waters.
Tommy Still rocking today ..
I saw Styx, REO Speedwagon, and Journey-90 minutes each, at Pittsburgh’s old Civic Arena, all in the same night!!

You may rest in peace brother ❤
Where the heck did 41 years go?

My Beloved Steelers Play this AWESOME Song From This AWESOME GROUP, at The Beginning of The 4th Quarter, during Every HOME GAME!!!
The highlight of every Steeler’s game.
Love it how they stuck this in at the back end of Ozark.
Was in Umbrella Academy too
Watching that episode as we speak 😎
My favorite Styx song!!❤
This is one of those rare songs, that when you hear the opening chords, you KNOW what song it is!
In this case, it's the opening vocals.
True, opens with the vocal. The driving instrumentation plays along in my head all these years later since it played on our car radios... 📻
@@estherclark820Killer riff, for sure.
Tommy was underrated..
What a masterpiece
Absolutely ❤
very under rated band Styx were.
emmm, fine musicians they are Yoda...
Kansas as well
I was lucky enough to see Styx in concert several times in the late 70's and early 1980's! One of my favorites, Queen too
Loved this since it came out. Maybe their best song.
Truly would pay any amount to be able to live in these days. as an early 90s baby, I knew I was always too late for my time. This is where my soul belongs.
It's not too late! Styx is touring in 2025
Me too
Just go see one of the hundreds of regional cover bands who replicate the greats perfectly
Absolutely amazing band back in the 80s'
My #1 back in the day.
But the concert was filmed in 1983 and released on CD in 1984 and on DVD in 2007.
Yes,sir I saw them inDenver this last year for the 13th time,Ive seen alot of shows but noone is better@@!
Tommy is so good STILL
Yes they should be in the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame!! Friggin' Awesome Band! Been listening to them since the beginning!❤😂❤❤
Saw Styx past summer and they KILLED. 10/10 would see them again
This is What Rock and Roll is all about.

@@sPi711SAME!
Love styx❤
in 2019 Pittsburgh Steelers were playing Chargers in L.A. and at end of third quarter someone paid the sound guy and he played Renegade.
Listen to amazing Maestro John Panozzo on those drums!!
Just what every rock anthem needs. Audience clapping along. 😔
I love the animation in the band. They seem to be really enjoying this so much. It's also funny to hear the girls screaming for Tommy Shaw, whom I never even would have pegged as a Heartthrob. So enjoyable!
talent can make someone irresistible regardless of physical looks
@@ingloriousbetch4302, I think he is cute and has become a handsome mature man. I'd say he is better looking now.
Tommy was THE heart throb of the band. No doubt. And most of the other guys in the band were glad to let him have it.
If you’re not having fun, the audience won’t either.
His musicality is sexy as hell
Tommy Shaw is one talented Mother Huncher! So cool seeing him back in his 20s !!! God I Love You Tube!
Tommy Shaw......GOAT
What a fucking band!!!
Also, I love RUclips for 'randomly' dropping gems like this on me.
One of the best live bands you'll ever see. Don't pass on the chance...
Thanks to my dear sister who gave me the album Pieces of Eight for my fourteenth birthday back in the day. Still love Styx!! Love you sis. 🙂❤️
Tommy STILL looks and sounds AMAZING ❤
Tommy Shaw…… effortlessly pumps out vocals like the Gods designed his larynx better than everyone else’s lol!
This music should come back....there was a lot of musical talent...like!! to this video...
They don’t make music like this anymore.
Chicagos finest

Great band ‼️👍 I love my tele' but the whammy bar on a strat is what makes a strat 🎸‼️👍
Just saw these fine folks in a small venue. Their sound was crisp and they had so much energy! Not a farewell tour, I sure hope. What a great band!
Tommy is certainly easy on the eyes as he on on my ears.
Styx they stood at the beginning of soul music and will remain so. There will be no others.
This was their Mr. Roboto tour, my one and only Styx concert. I remember our seats were not close.
Tommy Shaw still rocks my world
Styx - Renegade Lyrics:
Oh Mama, I'm in fear for my life
from the long arm of the law
Lawman has put an end to my running
and I'm so far from my home
Oh Mama, I can hear you a-cryin'
you're so scared and all alone
Hangman is comin' down from the gallows
And I don't have very long (yeah!)
The jig is up, the news is out
They finally found me
The renegade who had it made
Retrieved for a bounty
Nevermore to go astray
This'll be the end today of the wanted man
Oh Mama, I've been years on the lam
and had a high price on my head
Lawman said, "Get him dead or alive"
I was for sure he'll see me dead
Dear Mama, I can hear you a-cryin'
you're so scared and all alone
Hangman is comin' down from the gallows
and I don't have very long
The jig is up, the news is out
They finally found me
The renegade who had it made
Retrieved for a bounty
Nevermore to go astray
The judge will have revenge today
On the wanted man
Oh Mama, I'm in fear for my life
from the long arm of the law
Hangman is comin' down from the gallows
and I don't have very long
The jig is up, the news is out
They finally found me
The renegade who had it made
Retrieved for a bounty
Nevermore to go astray
This'll be the end today
Of the wanted man
The wanted man
And I don't wanna go
No, no
Mama, don't let 'em take me!

Damn love Shaws rocking attitude w audience
They were fantastic this summer!
One of the most identifiable voices in music 🎶...IMO
This song never gets old!
Agreed. This is one of those songs you can listen to infinite times and never get tired of hearing it.
At 3:54 Tommy’s screaming in F to G and screaming in G for 10 seconds straight.
Beautiful performance. Cheers!!!
Now that's putting on a show!
Classic never ending
Just saw them yesterday in Green Bay WI…they are still friggin rocking it.
The harmony though,makes that drop soo fuckin special
I was able to see them during the Kilroy Was Here tour with the original lineup and it was incredible. I would love to see the remaining members reunite for a final tour....
Can't picture that happening. Lots of bad feelings in the band.
Iconic
Love me some Tommy Shaw! ❤ Seeing them in Tampa on 20 July. 😎

Saw them on Grand Illusion tour. Great show! James Young is a great guitarist!
Ahhhh college days and the great music abounds
I saw them at the S.C state fair in the fall of 2011 or 2012. What a performance.
great chicago band
I saw them at the California Jam
Now that's what I call land back jam
the whole band is great, Tommy Shaw adds a great voice and connection to audience that you kinda cant ignore
