    Whenever I get a request from patreon I use the direct links provided to make sure there is no confusion! It is the shorter version but I still LOVED it! We can do the full version in the future!👍

      Hey man! That’s not the whole song! There’s another 2 minutes to the song that you missed! The song is 6:05! Go listen that one! That’s the actually version to the song! Not this crap where they take half the song out!

    The long version with the instrumental section does a lot toward setting the sailing mood... eerie sounds that could be whale song, could be interplanetary, but still very musical and well fit to the rest of the song. It's a must-listen.

    The full 6 minute version from the album is the ACTUAL "Official" version, the one that was released on the radio. It has the awesome and trippy instrumental version that gives the final verse its context! Please, do a reaction to the full version. Thank you. Really enjoying the channel.

    I absolutely love this song! The instrumental that is missing from this version really IS the cherry on top of the sundae, though. I saw Styx in concert twice, and they did an amazing job with this one live. Of course, it doesn't hurt to have ten thousand people-plus singing along with you. Another great Styx song is "Blue Collar Man".

    You MUST listen to the full version. If you loved what you heard you will realize you were robbed when you hear the full version. I was waiting for your reaction for the part that was cut out and couldn’t believe it wasn’t played.

    This was my class song in 1981! The principal had said the song could not be rock! We thought we had pulled a fast one because the student council took it in to the principal so she could hear it and approve it. She just listened to the first part. We were quite pleased with ourselves. Lol

  • @tigerbait2617

    Great tune. I wore this cassette out in the 70's. Now that I'm older i just chuckle thinking of the South Park episode where anyone singing the beginning of this song triggers Cartman to sing the rest of the song in its entirety super fast. lol

    It was so fun to see this reaction. I've been a HUGE Styx fan since 1978 when I first heard this song on the radio. It's been my ALL-TIME FAVORITE song since. I bought every Styx album when they came out and saw them 3 times in concert. The Grand Illusion album came out on 7-7-77 on Dennis DeYoung's 7th wedding anniversary. Forever a Styx Fan!! Thanks for the great reaction!! 😁👍

    By doing this version you are missing around 98 seconds of the actual studio version. Many artists pre MTV used radio edit versions in their promo videos. An absolute must that you listen to the studio version. Thanks and God Bless.

    Saw them twice, back in 1978 & 1983.
    You can't help singing along once the piano starts, you knew what was coming. Guilty both times, along with 2,000 & 20,000 respectfully others.
    Dennis DeYoung has a great voice. I've seen Freddie Mercury, Ann Wilson and Steve Perry, probably 3 of the greatest vocalists in rock. Dennis falls in behind them.

    @reverts3031 Рік тому +9

    I'm a fan of instrumentals, and you have to listen to the long version! Watching them perform and listening to the vocals bring me a great joy. Glad to know you find them entertaining. Yes, Styx is one of my faves! The 60s and 70s had some great instrumental hits. I wish more reactors took the time to listen to them. You could always hear bands like Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass - who had many great hits; Deodato (Also Sprach Zarathustra); Apollo 100 (Joy); Henry Mancini (Elephant Walk, Pink Panther). These examples are more of the Jazz variety, but I'm sure you would discover something new and your audience would enjoy them too. When the song Frankenstein came out (Edgar Winter), I was in heaven! Nevertheless, bring on more Styx!!!

    Great reaction! I love STYX. In my top 2 bands. STYX and Def Leppard are tied for first. I am here whenever you react to either band. Sometime after you get deeper into the STYX catalog, just sit and watch the Return To Paradise concert on YT. It is one of my favorite jam concerts to watch. It would be a nice one to react to, but I doubt YT would allow it except on patreon.

  • @susangille7255
    @susangille7255 Рік тому +1

    Oh boy, does this ever bring back the memories. Used to watch a local band playing in small rock venues all over Chicago. It was Baby Styx before they made it big. In the early 80s I bought a sailboat and went cruising for 3 years. Played this song as we were leaving Harbor each time. Thanks for your reaction. Didn't realize it was the shorter version until the end and I hadn't heard that amazing synthesized sound and crescendo. Still very satisfying though.

  • @traci4187
    @traci4187 Рік тому

    I can no longer hear this song without thinking of South Park. In one episode, either Kyle or Stan (can't remember which) proclaims that "you just can't hear the first lyric" of this song ("I'm sailing away...") without it being finished. He then proceeds to sing the line and Cartman about loses it, trying to resist singing the song... and then he launches into a frantic singing of the rest of the song. It's HILARIOUS!!!!
