![Styx • “Too Much Time On My Hands” • 1981 [Reelin' In The Years Archive]](/img/1.gif)
Hope you guys are having a great Friday!! Was time to check out some more STYX! Amazing employment newer production elements while still holding on to that killer rock sound, a banger for sure! Stay awesome friends! 🔥🤟🏻
Andy & Alex Good call on this classic song. One thing about Styx is when u get their albums you know what you’re gonna get. Very distinct vocals and funky grooves with distinct guitar 🎸 work.
Now....When you play PAINKILLER by Judas Priest, turn your headphones up to get the full effect of those machine gun drums at the beginning
You dudes are doing good. Keep it up.
✌🏻 out clowns!
Grand Illusion is a popular Styx tune BTW...
TBH I don't care what tracks y'all react to by STYX cause they're all great!!! Some of my favorites are Mr. Roboto, Come Sail Away, Lady, Babe, Pieces of Eight, Suite Madame Blue, Queen of Spades, Grand Illusion, Blue Collar Man...🤘😎🤘
Andy & Alex you guys should definitely do Come Sail Away by STYX, this was a great video guys keep it going!
Seen these guys in 76 at Ohio River Jam in Cincy. 9 bands $9.00, Aerosmith, Blue Oyster Cult, Black Oak Arkansas, R.E.O Speedwagon, Outlaws, Status Quo, Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, Styx and Bobby Womack. 60,000 plus Nippert Stadium Football Field. Those were the days LOL
Come Sail Away and Grand Illusion are required Styx listening...
The New Floyd The first episode of Freaks and Geeks plays “Come Sail Away” at the end during a school dance scene. It’s a perfect moment for those of us who were in high school in the late 70’s and early 80’s.
The 2 above mentioned songs are WAY better than this song. Way!
Seconding both choices
Would you not add Foolin Yourself to that list? Based on the album connection.
@@Veggamattic That's a great song. Other nice ones, from other albums, Crystal Ball, Queen of spades..
“Blue Collar Man”- my favorite Styx song. Second fave would be “the Grand Illusion”.
I used to listen to it whenever I had to get a different job. Great tune!
Agreed! Probably my all-time favorite of theirs. Tommy Shaw's songs were always my favorites.
Exellent choice. Turn it uuuppp!!!!
Blue Collar Man will always be my all time favorite song, for being FRICKIN AMAZING and for being the song that First brought me to Styx.
*"Blue Collar Man"* is my absolute favorite Styx track. But
*"Miss America"* is a VERY close second...🎸🎲🎶
Come Sail Away is probably one of Styx's biggest hits. I'd do that one next.
Definitely. Show me the Way is good too
Styx rose up when hard rock started to become glossy and mainstream. It was a trend of the late 70s, and it was the undoing of many bands, much like today. Still Styx had a talent for ballads, humor, hooks and commercial hard rock. They were hugely popular for a few years, dominating rock/pop radio in the US just before and after around 1980 along with bands like REO Speedwagon and Supertramp.
More Styx, Snowblind, Miss America, Crystal Ball and Suite Madame Blue.
Miss America for sure
You know it Joe S
Suite Madame Blue is still remarkably topical. Great song.
Joe S Miss America is such a great song.
Lorelei is great too
Suite Madame Blue absolutely goes hard as fuck
Other Styx suggestions:
Crystal Ball
Suite Madame Blue
Grand Illusion
Come Sail Away
Rockin The Paradise
Blue Collar Man
The Best of Times
Fooling Yourself, Miss America, Man in the Wilderness
Come Sail Away - Styx - Probably already heard it, but it's a top tier song
Styx was and still is one of the best bands ever.. I see them every time they come around,,
One of my favs. Saw them during their Grand Illusion and Mr Roboto tours.
FYI, guys, the lead vocalist in this song, Tommy Shaw, went on to form Damn Yankees with Ted Nugent and Jack Blades (bassist/vocalist from Night Ranger). They had 2 or 3 hits from their debut album.
Half Penny Two Penny is my favorite from this album -- that song bangs.
Suite Madame Blue is a classic Styx tune from 1975 EQUINOX album. Light Up and Lorelei are great tracks from the album, too
Styx songs that MUST be listened to..Come sail away,Fooling yourself,Crystal Ball,Boat on the river and Mr.Roboto
Blue Collar Man
The Grand Illusion
Fooling Yourself (The Angry Young Man)
Crystal Ball
Suite Madame Blue
All of those are awesome songs. Keep up the great work, guys!
A&A, Styx is a gold mine of great music, with some serious cheese mixed in, That being said, Blue Collar Man, Crystal Ball, Snowblind, Suite Madame Blue, Fooling Yourself (hell, the entire Grand Illusion album for that matter) but most of all, for me, is The Grand Illusion. I was thirteen when it was released and very, very few songs have ever spoken to me like Grand Illusion did. The music is spectacular but the lyrics, wow. For a lost, confused teen, I felt like someone finally heard me.
Amen brother, Amen.....
Miss America, Live!!!
LOVE Tommy Shaw. great singer and guitar player
The Styx album, The Grand Illusion, provided a few excellent tracks including the title track as well as "Miss America."
"Renegade" and 'Too Much Time on My Hands" are sung by Styx's Tommy Shaw ... as is "Fooling Yourself (Angry Young Man)." Styx also had many hits - that sound way different than Tommy Shaw's songs - with his bandmate Dennis DeYoung, who sang lead on "Lady," "Come Sail Away," and the weirdly fun "Mr. Roboto."
Guys....if you like Renegade....then I recommend Blue Collar Man by Styx
Oh, man, there are so many good Styx songs out there for you guys. Blue Collar Man, Come Sail Away, Lady, Lorelei, The Best of Times, Fooling Yourself, Babe, Miss America, The Grand Illusion, and more.
Glad to see you guys getting your STYX FYX! The musical diversity of STYX is one of their greatest attributes and the Renegade/Too Much Time on My Hands is a prime example of that. I would recommend "Come Sail Away". Warning NOT, I repeat, NOT to use the "Official Video" version which cuts out the middle section of the song!!! Please listen to the 6 minute version which is the TRUE version of the song. Love the channel and keep the STYX comin'.
I remember Styx mostly in the 70's with the songs from the Grand Illusion album on the radio a lot. My favorite is Come Sail Away, but I also remember Fooling Yourself and The Grand Illusion.
Oh guys, thank you, thank you. I love Styx and always loved, loved this song. The beat pulls you in right away. It’s like a bunch of clocks ticking different times but all together. I don’t know how else to explain it; but it gets me every time. You guys made a great choice.
Sounds to me like you guys need to get introduced to REO Speedwagon! Rinding the Storm Out (live)!!
Yeah Please React To Them
REO: TAKE IT ON THE RUN - RIDIN’ THE STORM OUT -ROLL WITH THE CHANGES- Who wouldn’t love to hear LIKE YOU DO. BANGER!!
Oh yeah!
Absolutely. Also Take It On The Run. Roll With The Changes is pretty good also.
YES...YES...YES!!! Ridin' The Storm Out live (from the 1977 live album "You Get What You Play For") is ABSOLUTE REO Speedwagon listening and the cut that should be played for introducing someone to this band. This is a perfect example from my post above wincing on some of the recent song choices lately and how a wrong song can turn someone off immediately from a band and not give them another chance. If someone is curious about REO Then "Ridin' The Storm Out" is a perfect place to start because like many bands of the 70's and 80's they started out class A, arse kickin' rock n roll band and then went softer than your great grand dad's love unit!! REO is 2 different bands (see night ranger), arse kickin' rock from about 71 (noting the debut of gary richrath and his guitar & song writing skills) through 1980 and then came the other band that started writing love songs for 14 year old girls like "don't let him go" and over the cliff they fell. Buh-BY!! Richrath then tried a solo gig but the record wasn't backed well by the label. Gary also had his demons as many musicians do and it cost him his spot in REO and soon after his solo act tanked and he drank himself to death. Anyhow, REO was once a great rock band so WHOEVER decides what goes into A & A's headphones, the 1977 cut of Ridin' The Storm Out on the "You Get What You Play For" album is the ticket to the REAL REO. Git 'Er Done!!
Haha, TOTAL radio song. They played it constantly, but it was so catchy, I didn’t mind it too much. Alex, I was waiting to see if you’d clap along-it’s hard not to, right? EARLY 80’s realness here, gentlemen.
I love Styx. Of course, as a girl, I love their song “Come Sail Away.” Love the Hendrix shirt Andy. Great video guys.
I loved Styx! 1970s baby! We had em' all!!! So miss those days.
I grew up on this stuff. Listen to this entire album. Beginning to end. It's really a rock n roll musical. There is live version on YT I saw the other day that is just amazing! Worth the watch just to see Tommy and Dennis in their prime.
OMG yes!!! Where do I start, there are so many gems by this band. "Suite Madame Blue", "Miss America", "Grand Illusion" I could keep going LOL but I'll stop there. Way to go with the clapping Alex, spot on!
You guys obviously love Tommy Shaw’s vocals.You should check out his other band Damn Yankee’s and react to songs like Come again or High Enough.Awesome songs!
darrell wood Ted Nugent also plays in this band.
Red Miner and Jack Blades of Night Ranger.Great band IMO
darrell wood High Enough was my wedding song. Im not traditional. I needed a rock song. 😎
Glad to see CHRYSTAL BALL getting props. It's my fav Styx song. Killer harmony vocals!! It was (16 year old) Tommy Shaw's first song he ever wrote and it got him the Styx gig. Like Equinox before it, that whole album is killer and one of rocks finest albums.
Good ole 1981...only 38 years ago...LOVE this band...and your reaction...
'Suite Madame Blue' would be a great one by Styx for you to check out from their 1975 'Equinox' album. Actually, that entire album is really amazing.
Styx is SO diverse, partly due to the fact all lineups had 3 lead vocalists/songwriters with great voices. The classic lineup (1976-1983, 1995-1999) had three awesome songwriters. The Top 40 singles (they had 8 Top 10's) would be one catalog, and the album tracks would be a HUGE catalog. Collaborations of 2 or 3 of the songwriters were very cool too. The following recommendations are a mix of the above (lead singers in parentheses)
Come Sail Away (Dennis Deyoung)
Put Me On (James Young/DDY)
Queen of Spades (DDY)
Fooling Yourself (Tommy Shaw)
Great White Hope (JY)
Snowblind (JY/TS)
Man In The Wilderness (TS)
Castle Walls (DDY)
Borrowed Time (DDY)
Rockin' The Paradise (DDY)
Miss America (JY)
Half Penny/Two Penny (JY)
Cold War (TS)
And, after you pick a couple of the above more "rock" songs, you guys NEED to react to the controversial Mr. Roboto (DDY)!
Suite Madame Blue. It's no contest. Their song about America. It's epic!
Tommy Shaw (singing this and lead guitar) was my favorite Styx member. He's just so fun to watch, has a fabulous voice and his guitar riffs are the best. Ahh memories....
Young dudes...saw them 3 times in 70’s , totally Rocked!! One of arena rocks masters. Dennis DeYoung is still playing solo and Tommy Shaw still has a great fricking voice. Keep it up, living my old bones thru you young dudes, so remind me of me..😂😂😂😎🎧🤟🏻✌🏻
Saw them @ the Lakeland Civic center
Florida in early 70’s. This song rocked the place!!!
Yes, 80's production, but very early (with at least five toes hanging on to the 70's). For more STYX, check out their first hit from back in the Wooden Nickel days - 'Lady.' For later hits check out 'Come Sail Away,' Fooling Yourself' - or anything from Grand Illusion album.
One of THE best 80s bands!
Styx has sooo many great songs, here’s a few good ones, Miss America, Sweet Madame Blue, Man in the wilderness, Snow blind , Crystal Ball, Blue collar man, Superstar! Happy listening!🙌🏻
Snowblind❤
Hey guys. First off I graduated from high school in 1978 so Styx was very popular with me. Crystal Ball is one I'd love to see you guys do. Grand Illusion is another. Great work you two. Love to see the music from my era being enjoyed.
Other great songs by Styx are, The best of times, Lonely people, Why me, Nothing ever goes as planned, Fooling yourself, and if you like harder Rock, try, Miss America, Half penny two penny, The Queen of spades and Snowblind.
Man, LOTS of memories here - what a good feeling !! I graduated in '81 from h.school and our senior yearbook song from Styx was "The Best of Times" " - SO FITTING !!!!! Thanks again !!!! 😓
Great vocals on this track. Love the New Wave bent as well. Check out Mr. Roboto for their most experimental song.
Exactly why they should try it. It was out there, In its day.
I saw Styx for Grand Illusion. The first line sung was 'Welcome to the Grand Illusion' What a perfect way to start a concert.
Blue Collar Man, Grand Illusion, Man In The Wilderness, Fooling Yourself, Suite Madame Blue, Crystal Ball, Come Sail Away, hell all of Grand Illusion, most of Pieces Of Eight, and many others
I second that list. Especially Fooling Yourself and Castle Walls. As well as Man in the Wilderness.
Pieces of Eight is their best, IMO.
Absolutely with you there.
I saw them twice in the 70s in concert. Once was the tour for this album. They were amazing and still are!
So glad you guys enjoyed this song, A&A! It was fun seeing you get the clap part down! \|/
I saw Styx for the The Grand Illusion tour. The first line was welcome to the grand illusion, and it was. It was one of the tasteful concert and one of the best I have ever seen. I have seen over 100 concerts, and this was up there.
Check out the Styx song "Babe". Extremely divisive song amongst the fans, but I always loved that song. It was the very first song I ever fell in love with as a child. In 1979, I was 4 years old and I heard that song and instantly loved it. Some fans love it, but a lot of fans don't like it at all, even though it was a huge #1 song at the time.
One of my favorite Styx songs. Great music and hilarious lyrics.
My favorite Styx songs are "Crystal Ball" " Lady" "Come Sail Away" " Grand Illusion" " and " Suite Madame Blue.!! Keep on Rocking guys & have a fantastic day.
I remember skating with my girl at the roller rink and everyone clap clapping along with this song.
Lady (original version not the rerecording), Crystal Ball, Suite Madame Blue, Grand Illusion
YES! Crystal Ball all day!
I love watching you guys hear classics such as this, as you both bop your heads in a trance. The 70's and 80's had tons of awesome music and I think it's awesome to see two young guys like yourselves discovering the joy of these timeless hits!
check out "Superstar" off of Grand Illusion or "Castle walls"
Just saw them live in concert a couple weeks ago. They’re still stellar musicians...into their mid and late 60’s! Fun to see a couple of young guys experiencing an older generation of rock music for the first time!
OH MAN! This reaction is priceless! Like 2 bobblehead dolls!
I saw this live in concert in the late 80’s ?! Lakeland FL ! This song rocked the house!!!
Miss America and Man in the Wilderness are tops on my list.
Man in the Wilderness and Castle Walls (back to back songs from the Grand Illusion album) are my favorites. You MUST give a listen.
I’m such an old bat that I remember when all these songs first came out
Thank you guys! Brings me back to my early 20's. This was one of the songs on my 'favorite' cassette tapes (yup...I'm old!).
Crystal Ball. You'll love how it starts out slow and builds with their signature vocal sound and style of rock.
You cannot REALLY get into Styx without these songs:
1) Snowblind (Paradise Theater)
2) Suite Madam Blue (Equinox)
3) Crystal Ball (Crystal Ball), the first album with Tommy Shaw
4) Blue Collar Man
And, probably the song that launched them into super stardom: Come Sail Away (Grand Illusion)
I've become a big Styx fan over the past few months.. If you are interested into delving into the real rare progressive rock sound check out their first 4 albums from Wooden Nickel.. My favorite albums from the early days are Styx II and Man of Miracles!. A must listen to especially DeYoungs stuff especially Suzanne, Father OSA and Man of Miracles.
Man of Miracles is EPIC. I don't think anyone has done a reaction video to that one, would love to see it here by A&A.
Castle Walls, Fooling Yourself, Blue Collar Man, Lorelei, Crystal Ball, Come Sail Away...so many great Styx songs.
I think you're wrong about the fun. This is from the Paradise Theater album (1980) and it marked the beginning of a rift between Dennis DeYoung and Tommy Shaw (one of my favorite guitarists). DeYoung was more experimental and kept adding theatrical elements into the music. The other members, most notably Shaw, didn't like it. It eventually led to them ousting DeYoung. They had some great hits in the 70s and 80s. I'd recommend "Come Sail Away" and "Fooling Yourself" off the top of my head. You should also give Damn Yankees a listen. It's a band comprised of Tommy Shaw, Ted Nugent, Jack Blades, and Michael Cartellone.
Damn Yankees! Whoop!
The riff between band members started after *Cornerstone* was released. Dennis was actually first fired in 1980. But the guys couldn't find a replacement for him at the time, so they asked Dennis to come back.
Even during their Wooden Nickel period though, and *Equinox,* they had problems with DeYoung. He was one of the main reasons John Curulewski left the band in 1975...
Styx toured a lot back in the day, and I can't tell you how many times I saw them. Great concert.
Styx tours more now, then they did back in their heyday. They have been on tour for the last 21 years. Although with the Corona situation, it's has curtailed them a bit in 2020...
Guys I am a huge STYX fan - please see them in concert when they start up - they are amazing. They are a tight band that brings it at every show.
Styx has many songs to explore. Come Sail Away is probably their most famous one. Other good ones are The Grand Illusion which has deep lyrics, Fooling Yourself, Castle Walls, Crystal Ball, Blue Collar Man and many others.
my fave Styx song! ♥
dudes, you'll enjoy SNOWBLIND, SUITE MADAM BLUE and my favorite STYX song, QUEEN OF SPADES, ENJOY.
Come sail away. Must listen. I so enjoy watching this younger generation enjoying all the great music that came out of the 70s and 80s. Best music ever.
Born for Adventure and The Queen of Spades will blow you away.
So glad you like them! Great live in concert! My first concert!
Gotta do Blue Collar Man...best song...great job as always guys...
You both are about my daughters age and I love that your generation is getting to experience this music. She has always loved classic rock from 60-80’s. Keep seeking out the sounds
“Babe” is a beautiful one.
Ho-hum, boring...
@@kengarner3625 that's too bad - Babe has a beautiful melody
Grand Illusion is my favorite Styx album...Songs The Grand Illusion, Fooling Yourself, Come Sail Away, Miss America, Castle Walls! All killer...
A fantastic album. Check out Suite Madam Blue, one of my favs
Love you both, and you're great taste in music....This is Tommy Shaw's song, lead singing...I just saw and got to meet Styx a few months ago and not only do they sound incredible, you would never know Tommy is 65/66, his energy, voice and looks are years younger, another plus, the entire band is humble and plays for the love of music and is so giving to their fans....if ever in your area, a truly great concert to see.....Have an incredible weekend, and Rock On!!
I started taking my daughter to see them live every year till she got married. So we have about 10 concerts together with them
ruclips.net/video/dASsnykRwm4/видео.html
Now watch this version. Done where we seen them with local musicians. My daughter almost went there but instead liked the program at Baldwin Wallace more.
I finally saw Styx at the Ohio State fair. Was one of the best concerts I remember. Iwas spoiled i was born in the 60s and was a teenager in the 70 and 80s. Awesome. PEACE GUYS!
You should react to "Rockin' in Paradise! by Styx!
Rockin the Paradise is a jam!!!
I just stumbled on this on the Saturday afternoon of a 3-day weekend ... so, when riffing on the song title you said "we've got too much time on our hands, and so do you, that's why you're watching us" I lol'ed. And TBH I haven't listened to this song since it was actually on the radio - they were never one of my favorite bands. But now thanks to you I remember why I did always kinda like them when they came on. And now that you mention Renegade I'm going to have to go check out that video, since I remember liking that one even more.
Thanks for helping me "fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way" ;-)
Styx had three singer/songwriters during their heyday.
You've listened to two songs sung by Tommy Shaw. This may be a different tact for the two of you, I suggest you listen to three songs in a row, one from each singer.
Suite Madame Blue (Dennis DeYoung circa 1976, Miss America (James Young - 1977) and Blue Collar Man (Tommy Shaw - 1979). Three unique songs by each guy in the band. You won't regret it. :)
Oh, and a constant supporting them were twin bothers Chuck and John Panazzo on base and drums/percussion.
J Wine still pushing you do this, maybe a Friday or Saturday eve. 😎
You ought to see them live. They are incredible. Every song is different.
Check out the song Riding The Storm Out by REO SPEEDWAGON! You will probably be one of the first to react to them! You will dig it for sure!🤘🏼
Songs and their memories, priceless. Hope this gives y’all some good memories
You should react to Styx "Fooling Yourself"! The entire Grand Illusion album is a masterpiece! I was 13 when it was released and I've loved the album ever since!
I love this whole album (Paradise Theater). I love this song in how the keyboard sets the beat and then the drums come in on the off-beat. One of my favorite Styx songs. Next song you gotta hear, "Come Sail Away". It's Styx' most iconic song.
Can't believe you have not heard "Come sail away" DO IT! I can't stand most of the eighties either. The 60's was a lot of sanitized pop in the beginning which begun to become experimental with the Beatles. That experimentation along with better instruments and recording led to what I feel is the best rock era from about 67- 79. So much variety, so much experimentation, a wider variety of instrumentation and use of sound, and better craftsmanship of instruments. I sorely miss that era, and it is a joy for me as a 61 year old to see you men such as yourselves appreciating the music.
@JD Chase Most politicians in Washington are how you describe Donald Trump. I support Trump not for his personality, but for his draining the swamp. What is draining the swamp? The politicians in DC come to DC with modest wealth and steal the over taxed people of this country's money. They set their children up in unethical if not illegal situations to make them rich such as Hunter Biden. They continually raise taxes thus destroying job opportunities for the middle class. They have run up the national debt to the point our economy is in danger of collapse. The political system in DC is corrupt and evil. Donald Trump is trying to reverse and restore the system of this country that once made us the richest nation on earth, not the most indebted nation on earth. I suggest you read more widely for a better understanding of the issues than the current left wing talking points being used to brainwash the masses.
Maggot Brain by Funkadelic with the late , great Eddie Hazel on guitar. Produced by George Clinton , of Parliament / Dr. Funkenstein fame. Really awesome guitarworks !
Some other great Styx songs are "Lady", Mr. Roboto" "Lorelei" and "Show me the way" to name just a few 🤘😎
😂
For a Chick....YES !!!!!
Oh my! Forgot about Lorelie! Going to listen to it right now. Thanks!
Love that you guys are coming back to Styx. Styx has a wide variety of styles
Lorelei
A Day
Man of Miracles
Grove of Englatine
Father OSA
Are some of their older stuff from before they got super big that often gets overlooked.
Great that u picked up the difference in the music. Most agree that their older stuff was much harder and substantial
You guys have such a great energy together. You seem like really good friends who are really in sync.
Just watched your Boston - More Than a Feeling video. Been aware of your content for about 3 weeks now and see you're doing great. Some treasures are for discerning listeners and you definitely qualify soooo. Challenge: Of the following which do you like more? Edgar Winter - Frankenstien or Boston - The Launch. They are both nonvocal instrumental so the music is the message. Give those two a listen and I'd love to watch your reaction and hear your thoughts. Requirement. Serious volume on both.
I bought "They only come out at night" , when I was 12 or 13, specifically for Frankenstein. It was the first album I bought, and it took me awhile to save enough allowance to buy it, but well worth it. Free Ride was a bonus. I'm now 56, and it remains one of my all-time favorites. I love rock instrumentals, like Hocus Pocus by Focus(a little yodeling, but no lyrics, YYZ by Rush, and Outta Space by Billy Preston(more funk than rock), but it STILL rocks.
