    Personally I think this song was waaaaay ahead of its time- and now we’re living it...

    This son has multi-layered meaning. Dennis DeYoung has said that the primary influence of this song is seeing some of his friends growing up lose their jobs to automation and/or losing their jobs overseas to countries such as Japan. The lyrics in the beginning is Japanese. This song is part of a concept album, which tells the story of the rock star Kilroy, whose framed for a murder he did not commit and he is thrown in prison, as part of a diabolical plot by a religious zealot who is out to end rock-n-roll. This, too, was influenced by real life when a religious group claimed that Styx's Paradise Theater album had backward Satanic messages on it, something that baffled and upset the deeply Catholic Dennis DeYoung. The story open with Kilroy escaping from prison disguised as a Mr. Roboto - a robot that has taken over much of the work that is now done. In a dusty museum of past music, Kilroy meets Johnathan Chance, a budding young pop star and he removes his mask to show his true identity - the escaped convict (though framed) Kilroy. The whole story has a 1984 kind of feel - as it was 1983 and there was a lot of discussion at that time that 1984 was about to come and whether or not George Orwell's prophesy had come true or not. Maybe, he was a few years too early on it all. Cool reaction video I enjoyed it. Try some more Styx, as musical talents, they are among the best.

    Kilroy is a name of the main character in their rock opera "Kilroy Was Here". He defeats one of the robots that work in the prison he is in and uses it to disguise himself and escape.

    If we’re venturing into styx now there’s a lot for you to experience “too much time on my hands” “babe” “lady” “renegade” “come sail away” “blue collared man” “the grand illusion” “the best of times” “lorelei” “fooling yourself” and a bunch more that’s just off the top of my head. I’d say your next one should be renegade or come sail away

    this was one of the biggest skating rink bangers in the 80"s. I still remember friday nights flying around thunderbird roller rink yelling domo arigoto Mr. roboto.

    "Killroy" is a cartoon character in WWII, peeping over a wall with only eyes, nose&hands showing. Sign that you are being watched (Kilroy was here..👀😒

    “Kilroy was here” was a saying from the war. Soldiers would graffiti it to show American presence.

    People didn't wait until social medias to wear masks, guys. :) Plus Japanese are very good at wearing masks, their social interactions are almost based on that.

    Seeing her giggling and doing the robot was all I needed to see today. Mood altered. Thank you. 😁

    This is one of my favorite songs of the 80s. No song in history sounds like this. This song to me is about technology being used to take over the world and using a happy face to do it. Sounds pretty prophetic to me.

    To here the rockin' side of Styx try Renegade or Blue Collar Man. They were a very popular band in the late 70s and early 80s, with many hit songs and a variety of sounds.

    And this song also taught us all how to say "Thank you very much" in Japanese..

    This is completely unlike all of their other songs. To hear what Styx is best known for by their fans, listen to Renegade or Come Sail Away. If you want a romantic song, give Babe a listen.

    "Modren Man" gets me every time.

    I love the Southpark scene where Cartman does the whole rendition of "Come Sail Away" in like 30sec.
