Man has been using technology since the dawn of time. Computers are culimonation of many different scientific fields and hundreds of years of advancement. So to complain that we have too much technology is just, well, not very specific or interesting and comes from the mind of a layman with no appreciation for scientific thought. The actual problem is we have too many humans.
@@DougV695 Slow down there, pseudo-intellectual. You might burn out a brain cell or two with that attempt at obliviously pretentious higher thought. You only have so many to spare, after all.
It's also about the then present. Japan kicked America's ass in cars and electronic. They took the USA by storm. They were a model of manufacturing perfection.
As this song says "The problem's plain to see. Too Much technology. Machines to save our lives. Machines dehumanize". It's incredible how this verse has too much importance now.
Um. Like holy shit. I was born in the seventies and love this shit. My son was over tonight with his bass guitar playing this, and it made we wanna revisit the past, so I looked this up...... somehow I'VE LISTENED TO THIS SONG MY WHOLE LIFE, but never truly LISTENED.......This comment of yours should be viral. How have I listened to this from fourth grade through my fucking fifties living in the hell scape that is AI and social media, seeing where it's going, seeing that our IDs have no earthly idea what life was like before the screen ruled the world

@mamacitabella1759 yea there's a quote about enjoying the music when you're happy, but understanding the lyrics when your sad. Not the same thing, but it makes you think about how much great lyricism is overlooked by the masses because we're too busy consuming everything in site shallowly/superficially
I am, I got the CD for Christmas from my brother and we bought tickets to see them at the Venetian during their residency in Las Vegas on Oct 31! I'm stoked. Even though it's not Dennis De young, the other guy (I hear) does a great job with this song, which is included in the song list for the 23/24 tour. I am excited to hear it even tho I will admit, it's by far NOT my favorite Styx song...I'm more of a Man in the Wilderness, Boat on the River type gypsy soul :) Love you Tommy Shaw forever and ever!

Look forward to the days of sharing such memories with your kids cause this gem gotta get fucking shared FORFUCKING EVERRRRRRRRRRRRRBDOMOOOOOOOOOOYOOOOOOWAAAAAAAAAA
To help people that are reading, this song ( whole album, actually) tells a story! To sum it up, Mr. Roboto is about a famous rock musician named Kilroy who get thrown into prison because in the future America is a dystopia run by fascist tyrants, who outlaw and ban music. This was bad news for Kilroy, because this meant he was to be thrown into prison. Honestly I'm sure there is more to this story but thats the overgeneralised plot. The prison is completely run by, well, robots. Kilroy, (Little fun fact about the album, the title is called "Kilroy Was Here" which in this case has two meanings. One meaning is the reference to one of the first ever "memes" It was used back in the 1940's by soldiers of WWII. The other meaning is of course, referring to our protagonist of this rock opera, Kilroy.) Kilroy knocks out a robot guard when it enters his prison cell, and disguises himself inside the robot. (Hence "Somewhere to hide") Then he manages to escape prison in the suit. Thats why he keeps saying "Thank you" over and over. Thats the story of Mr. Roboto. Its not the whole Kilroy Was Here album, but its a piece of it.
An absolutely prophetic song from 1983 where it tells us about the prominence of robots and artificial intelligence... they saw the future 40 years from now, how great! ... Greetings from 2023 Chiclayo-Peru
Heck yea it is! I remember this one as a kid. I was a science fiction geek and still am, but realize it's not fiction like Elon Musk recently stated. Where did all this knowledge come from that created the 21st century future arriving? We didn't actually realistically expect to see high tech AI driven robots in the real world like we're beginning to see. The first driverless robo taxi without operator controls is set to be announced on August 8th this year. Elon Musk is the super star CEO of all time, but not sure if gonna save America and keep the world a human one that represents the will of the people for it's a global corporation that oversees all the companies, universities, countries, and everyone who was blessed to have great jobs. For the rest of us who speak truth instead of going along with whatever plan, there's not this greatest country we thought was our country for it's the global corporation of WEF.
_"The problem's plain to see... Too much technology! Machines to rule our lives... Machines dehumanize!"_ That one verse is the whole meaning behind the entire album and story!
I like how the song is 100% synth until he says that line and then it switches to analog instruments that are so processed that you can hardly recognize them as natural. It's genius.
It doesn't end for me, I started singing the lyrics to "Cold War" right on cue. As controversial as the album and the tour were, Dennis DeYoung wrote a futuristic if not timeless story and in doing so broke up the band lol so clearly it's art. If they're not in "Rock and Roll Hall of Fame" then I dispute there is such a thing.
Ser niño en los ochentas, estar viendo televisión y de repente escuchar y ver esto... Es una experiencia que, mis queridos jóvenes de hoy, no pueden ni siquiera imaginarse😊
Perdón por la dosis de realidad, pero estas canciones no se quedaron por ser buenas precisamente, eran migajas de información de lo que se vendría después, hoy 2024 tienen más sentido que hace 30 o 40 años, cuando "kilroy" esté tomando el control será tarde pensar que hubo una canción que habló justo de eso, advirtiendonos.

I'll never forget a Star Trek convention in Portland back in' 97 this song was played as a video tribute featuring the best of Mr.Data.The place went crazy.
This skng helped me get through some hard times when i was a little kid. I came from a physically, verbally, and mentally abusive home. This song spoke of the freedom and identity i myself had to hide in order to keep from being abused... So thank you very much mr roboto and styx for heping me escape yahhhhhh😢😂❤
Whenever someone says "Domo Arigato," I think of this song. I ain't gonna last a minute in Japan. Edit: one of my rival marching bands had their show be a tribute to Styx, with this as their 1st Mvt.
I really just want to say!!! THIS GREAT BAND WAS WAY WAY AHEAD OF ITS TIME!!! This band is amazing , I really wanna put it out there!! Young people may not appreciate this amazing music!!! But I’m here to tell you that this amazing band does not get the credit that it deserves!! I will be a dedicated fan till I die!!!I know you guys are still doing concerts and it is on my agenda to attend one!! Love you guys!!!
It's also hard to believe that Mr. Roboto proved eerily prophetic. The song literally thrust us all into this dystopian, almost futuristic cyberpunk science fiction world.
Not when you were a teen in the 80s. Most of the songs that I'm familiar with are from the 80s, other than "Weird Al" songs, and of course some of those are from the 80s.
Some of the best music ever came from roughly 76-77 to 83-84. Devo, Styx, the Cars, The Police, Frankie goes to Hollywood, Gleaming Spires, Men at Work, and hell, I'll even give Adam Ant an honorable mention 😀
AHH es Irratable Brain Mucus, Is That A disease or real, lol just Kidding Styxx Is The Best cuz i have to nuch time on my hands as well! Until someone wants to borrow that $$ that you never see again life is great Biden or who are again, jill who am i typing to, oh sorry.Got to get to my basement sorry!!!!
Back when IBM were big players in the computing scene, before Microsoft Windows came in and changed everything. They’re still successful today just Microsoft definitely came out stronger…
@Jesse Hoffman A lot of people think transhumanist talk is a "conspiracy theory". Bravo. I still don't see many folks on social media ever go anywhere near that topic.
I FINALLY get to see Styx next year been a fan since I was 12 (when this album came out)I know it’s not all the original members, but it’s a LIFELONG dream!!!🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

This was 30 years ahead of its time. Daft Punk did Interstella 5555 & didn't suffer the catastrophic demise that Styx did. I was a huge fan of the Mr Roboto album. I listened front to back endlessly in my 14 year old existence. Mr DeYoung has pipes!
Good one... Even China uses Northern Korean Slave Labor.. Chinese raise their noses in the air, we are now too good to bother making this consumer garbage for export..
Foreshadowing! As a Gen Z boy I can relate tremendously. We are all glued with technology. This song aged like wine. One of the best songs of all time and this song will still age well throughout the upcoming years. One of the lines in this song is true especially the rise of technology. 80s music are the greatest. I’m glad I’m into 80s music

2024 anyone? Wow has time gone by, and this song is still as brilliant as it was the 1st time I heard it!!! "Thank you very much a Mr. Roboto" and thank you very much STYX !! 🤖🤖
Occasionally, a great rock band will veer off into uncharted territory, take risks, and make something that is really weird and really amazing. This entire album from Styx was one of those occasions. We didn't know what the heck we were hearing, but we knew it was awesome.
@@RVBOY2 Wow. You must have had a poor relationship with your mama she ain't never danced with you as a child. But thanks for trying to make others feel bad!
My cousin was in the same talent show as me. I did a Cindi Lauper sing with a bunch of girls. We rocked. My cousin did this song with a Frankenstein mask on while dancing like a robot. He got a standing ovation. He won the contest. Love it!
It's so fucking perfect. Like the lyrics are just a perfect match. And, at the end when he is saying "Thank you for helping me escape when I needed to. Thank you, thank you!" He's thanking 4 entities. Just like in Mr. Robot, the father the mother, the kid, and the mastermind. They helped him escape.
@@Jimbogf Nah, if anyone, it's India. China is just the backbone of cheap manufacturing. India is the one with internet access skyrocketing and the fastest economy growth in the world (China has higher GDP, but this is because they inflate it by building useless apartments, etc.) Also, India's booming in tech, which is the industry that's leading the world right now
But Japan is Ok. Still one of the 3 strongest economies. If it was not for the opressing government and the slaves, China would never overcome Japan. When the robotics finally become relevant and affordable for anyone, Japan will return to the second position, after USA. Don't believe in China and India, they are not free countries. It's not just about economy, it's about humam development too. Japan is a very equal country. The people in general are rich, like in USA. The culture plays a very important role too.

Los 80, segun Styx, devo y algunas otras agrupaciones con temática futurista , solo representaron una realidad idealista y fantasiosa que no se ha materializado hasta la fecha. Nunca será el futuro tal y como te lo vendían en aquel entonces.
This brings about extremely find memories of my baby brother. He liked this song as a little boy. I miss him so,so much and am calmly waiting 2 b reunited with both mom & lil bro.🤗❤️💋
Music videos in the 1980s were awesome. They didn't have the technology we have today to make everything look super clean and perfect but they were a lot more creative, they did a lot more with what they had and they usually told a story, they were like short movies.
They had to be awesome. These were the heydays of MTV and everybody watched MTV all day. When artists recorded songs and wanted them to be successful they had to stand out in order to get attention.
When u don't have enough resources, then u think out of the box and that's what called is creativity. There were not enough resources, but there were brains to use unlike today's generation who got a fixed mindset.
Came home one day after school many years ago and step dad gave me a big hug. Told me "Thank you". I didn't know why. He thanked me for leaving my radio out and called in and won back stage tickets to a Styx concert. Got grass seats. Dad came back with tears in his eyes. Showed us the band at the time (90's) signed both first and last names on his 8Track cassette from the band. Great concert!
@@steventalbot2505 He didn't say it was an 8 track of Kilroy Was Here. He might have gotten the band to sign an 8 Track of Pieces of Eight or The Grand Illusion or Styx II.
@@steventalbot2505 Certain albums were being sold on 8-Track Tape through record clubs up until at least 1988. And this particular album was released in USA on 8-Track Tape as a standard retail edition and through record clubs.

@@jada8047 I was born in 1979, and I remember this song ever since it came out.
@jasondudash5501 wow u lucky.. I wasn't brought up on this kinda music much from my family probably because I'm black but I like this song...
This song is going to be terrifyingly relevant in about 40 years.
xD
that's pretty much what they were saying 40 years ago.
if the world last long enough ill blat this song in 40 years
lol 40 years...oh cant you see, the re-al-ity....it's relevant now, in my opinion.
Not really we'll be dead by then.
Everyone loves the "Dōmo arigatō misutārobotto" part
This skng helped me get through some hard times when i was a little kid. I came from a physically, verbally, and mentally abusive home. This song spoke of the freedom and identity i myself had to hide in order to keep from being abused... So thank you very much mr roboto and styx for heping me escape yahhhhhh😢😂❤
Whenever someone says "Domo Arigato," I think of this song. I ain't gonna last a minute in Japan.
Edit: one of my rival marching bands had their show be a tribute to Styx, with this as their 1st Mvt.
Bolt out in song when they do..... we’re American ..... it’s not like we have a good reputation😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Yeah I hear that phrase often,said no one EVER!
You made my day 🤣
But Isn’t “Domo Arigato” Italian or Latin?
"Secret secret..I've got a secret" - You sure did...Mr. Robot.
I think Dennis is the one who had the secret.......just sayin
This song is about 50 years ahead of its time.
I really just want to say!!! THIS GREAT BAND WAS WAY WAY AHEAD OF ITS TIME!!! This band is amazing , I really wanna put it out there!! Young people may not appreciate this amazing music!!! But I’m here to tell you that this amazing band does not get the credit that it deserves!! I will be a dedicated fan till I die!!!I know you guys are still doing concerts and it is on my agenda to attend one!! Love you guys!!!
2:06 "I'm not a Robot"
This song predicted Recaptchas.
This song is absolutely prophetic.
Damn straight. My 7 year old daughter loves this and even said the same thing you did!
In addition to "In the Year 2525," top of the charts on the day man landed on the moon July 1969.
Hi I recommend an indie song called 'The Bond Villain' by Robert Nix
So true!😂
@brittanymayes6013 Your 7 year old daughter used the word prophetic? I'd definitely enroll her in a gifted school when you get the chance
they were on some good shit in the 80's

The lyrics of this song are literally the plot of Mr. Robot. It's like Sam Esmail took this song and made a show out of it.
Descendant of Kraff I think he said he did exactly that
I came hear right after finishing the series and I wholeheartedly agree
@@thenextweek2416 me too lol
Why'd you reveal the secret to most movies ...
@@harshpherwani6590 Well, Kind of. The show is LOOSELY based off of a true story.
It's hard to imagine this song was recorded almost 40 years ago Released: February 11, 1983
Recorded: 1982
It's also hard to believe that Mr. Roboto proved eerily prophetic. The song literally thrust us all into this dystopian, almost futuristic cyberpunk science fiction world.
Not when you were a teen in the 80s. Most of the songs that I'm familiar with are from the 80s, other than "Weird Al" songs, and of course some of those are from the 80s.
WOW! Time has passed! My late sister, Adron graduated from high school in May 1983. She was 16 years old.
I feel so old
Some of the best music ever came from roughly 76-77 to 83-84. Devo, Styx, the Cars, The Police, Frankie goes to Hollywood, Gleaming Spires, Men at Work, and hell, I'll even give Adam Ant an honorable mention 😀
Awesome song from an awesome decade!! Long live the 80’s!!
Amen to that
piece of my childhood...i was 8...now,i am nearly 48...still amazing song...timeless...
Oh, so this video *IS* real! I just assumed it was a fever dream I had when I was a kid.
I wanna say loser but I feel as if something incredibly similar happened... Oh wait shit something similar DID happen
I frankly find it awesome you feverishly dreamed a Dennis DeYoung concept video 👍
That fever dream made you comfortably numb, didn't it?
No...THIS ACTUALLY HAPPENED.
Same thing happened to me. I could hear the mr roboto theme but never actually heard the song till I found it in the suggestions.
The vocals in these song do not get the credit it deserves. Most people recall the iconic chorus but DeYoung's singing and showmanship is fantastic.
Dennis DeYoung should have stayed with the band. Lawrence Gowan just doesn't cut it as lead singer now.
Lol boo
@@seg1964ca Dennis DeYoung has done everything he can to make a Styx reunion happen, but TS's arrogance sadly (and pathetically) stands in the way...

This song makes more sense now than when it was writen

Sure does with all those US drones dropping a bomb world wide every 12 minutes.
Yep
It came out when I was 12 years old and I agree it's even more relevant nowadays!
@Jesse Hoffman A lot of people think transhumanist talk is a "conspiracy theory". Bravo. I still don't see many folks on social media ever go anywhere near that topic.
I just saw Styx in concert and this song was perfection....
Hi, who was the lead singer ? TYIA
@@isaacnewton6930Lawrence Gowan sung this song when I saw them. Wish I got the chance to se Dennis
I want to go see them really badly I love the band
@@Eeveecharm Saw Styx twice in late 70's early 80's with Dennis. Really good shows. Dennis has such a distinct voice and style.
@@Eeveecharm They only started playing Mr. R. in shows after Dennis started doing it with his copy band.
I FINALLY get to see Styx next year been a fan since I was 12 (when this album came out)I know it’s not all the original members, but it’s a LIFELONG dream!!!🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Where? When?
When I fail the Captcha test
I'm able to fail captcha tests that are just the checkmark
Oh man, all that re-Captcha I'm not a robot is driving me nuts this year. Click the photos that have a bus or crosswalk in them. I can't log into Amazon, Google, or anything without this test and now it's dependent on using Android phone to verify and authorize log ons. I guess Cyber security has gone to a new level in 2020. Level 2021 is surely quite a tricky advanced level of the game.
@@TUBESPECIFIC1 Maybe the robots want to know you're a human, so they can lock you out of your accounts, and take over :P
@@Touketsuken Business software installed by IT departments works in that way running algorithms with strict parameters intended to trip up unauthorized users where security is high to protect sensitive data. A wrong password or error often triggers a lock out so employee contacts boss or IT guy to be unlocked. Malware can be a, 'bot,' that targets end users to lock them out of accounts, steal data, and ultimately money. Windows 10 has been pretty good about keeping malware and bots out that were a terrible machine slow down problem 15 to 20 years ago in earlier versions. VPN's are used to encrypt data and spoof country connecting from, but slows down connection speed. This is where any device spying on your connection can't make out what your sending and receiving for only your machine and the server you're connecting to has the decryption code and then you can set your country to almost any on the world map. Sounds complicated, (and it is a very complex process inside the computer) but it's super easy for us to do.

This song just makes everything alright.
This song cheers me up.😊
This was 30 years ahead of its time. Daft Punk did Interstella 5555 & didn't suffer the catastrophic demise that Styx did. I was a huge fan of the Mr Roboto album. I listened front to back endlessly in my 14 year old existence. Mr DeYoung has pipes!
This song is about 40yrs old, and talking about exactly what’s going on today. This song is truly futuristic
Predicted now and Predicted tomorrow on.

@@BopDiva yes machine want rule I don’t allowed 👍📵
Dam this song is so old. Parts were still made in Japan and not China...perhaps that's the reason this song stood the test of time lol

Foreshadowing! As a Gen Z boy I can relate tremendously. We are all glued with technology. This song aged like wine. One of the best songs of all time and this song will still age well throughout the upcoming years. One of the lines in this song is true especially the rise of technology. 80s music are the greatest. I’m glad I’m into 80s music

2024 anyone? Wow has time gone by, and this song is still as brilliant as it was the 1st time I heard it!!! "Thank you very much a Mr. Roboto" and thank you very much STYX !! 🤖🤖
Occasionally, a great rock band will veer off into uncharted territory, take risks, and make something that is really weird and really amazing. This entire album from Styx was one of those occasions. We didn't know what the heck we were hearing, but we knew it was awesome.
Great, insightful comment!
I think George Michael’s Freedom 90 is like that. He took a lot of chances musically and boldly not being in the music video.
I was mesmerized by this son & the album art as a 12 year old. Still am to some degree.

Heard this on the radio the other day. Instantly my new favorite song
My cousin was in the same talent show as me. I did a Cindi Lauper sing with a bunch of girls. We rocked. My cousin did this song with a Frankenstein mask on while dancing like a robot. He got a standing ovation. He won the contest. Love it!
Did you ever hear cyndi Lauper sing "Manic Monday?"
There is on UA-cam ? I will love to see it
It's so fucking perfect. Like the lyrics are just a perfect match. And, at the end when he is saying "Thank you for helping me escape when I needed to. Thank you, thank you!" He's thanking 4 entities. Just like in Mr. Robot, the father the mother, the kid, and the mastermind. They helped him escape.
@Ar Ar if I understood it correctly, the viewer is the real Elliot.
Domo Arigato! Listening this in 2024.
Styx what the heck i love this song!!!!!!!!!! THANK GOODNESS FOR THIS RIGHT HERE.
Back when we thought the Japanese were going to take over the world economically
Now it's China.
@Steve Fox many years after. And after we rebuilt their manufacturing industry, especially automotive.
@@Jimbogf Nah, if anyone, it's India. China is just the backbone of cheap manufacturing. India is the one with internet access skyrocketing and the fastest economy growth in the world (China has higher GDP, but this is because they inflate it by building useless apartments, etc.) Also, India's booming in tech, which is the industry that's leading the world right now
But Japan is Ok. Still one of the 3 strongest economies. If it was not for the opressing government and the slaves, China would never overcome Japan. When the robotics finally become relevant and affordable for anyone, Japan will return to the second position, after USA. Don't believe in China and India, they are not free countries. It's not just about economy, it's about humam development too. Japan is a very equal country. The people in general are rich, like in USA. The culture plays a very important role too.
economically??? technologically!!!
You can't help but love this. Long live the 80s!!!

Los 80, segun Styx, devo y algunas otras agrupaciones con temática futurista , solo representaron una realidad idealista y fantasiosa que no se ha materializado hasta la fecha. Nunca será el futuro tal y como te lo vendían en aquel entonces.

It was so ahead of its time , it was like they time traveled or something.
Music videos in the 1980s were awesome. They didn't have the technology we have today to make everything look super clean and perfect but they were a lot more creative, they did a lot more with what they had and they usually told a story, they were like short movies.
They had to be awesome. These were the heydays of MTV and everybody watched MTV all day. When artists recorded songs and wanted them to be successful they had to stand out in order to get attention.
When u don't have enough resources, then u think out of the box and that's what called is creativity.
There were not enough resources, but there were brains to use unlike today's generation who got a fixed mindset.
Prophetic song

Came home one day after school many years ago and step dad gave me a big hug. Told me "Thank you". I didn't know why.
