    This is the Tommy Shaw masterpiece from 1978's Pieces of Eight album, and what really makes the song are Dennis DeYoung's beautiful and thrilling keyboard solos.
    I actually made this video back in 2018 (along with the Great White Hope and I'm Okay videos) but for whatever reason never uploaded it. Really, I was going to re-edit it as split-screen, so technically it was never finished, but now I think it's pretty cool as-is!

    Great job. Nice to see younger generation great musicians doing things like this. The price tag on the acoustic reminded me of Nigel.

    Couldnt help but notice "This one still has the 'ol tagger on it" 🤣
    Love this especially because Tommy Shaw wrote this for his daughter, and my kid covered it. Ha😏. It is very touching for me as it reminds me of the beautiful bond of sharing music between parent and child, and just singing for the day! the moment, and the rest of your life. ✨️🙏 warm fuzzies . Dennis I know you did this some years ago. And like everone says, you just keep getting better and better. Great job Dennis.

      Tommy didn't write this song for his daughter. His daughter wasn't born till years later.

      @datlas333 there's a RUclips video out there where Tommy is at a high school in Ohio and he tells the story of how the song came about.

    Any tips on how to make the sound for the keyboard?

    • @dennisatlas
      @dennisatlas  6 месяцев назад +1

      Most of the sounds you hear me playing come from Logic/Mainstage and a few added plugins like Native Instruments. Of all the Styx songs, Sing for the Day's synth sound is one I've never been able to quite replicate!! The original has this unique flare to it I've never found in another keyboard. That being said, I'm pretty happy with what I came up with for this video. It just came from a long time of trying different layers of synths in ES2 and Retrosynth until it sounded flutey and cool.
