This IS a group of MUSICIANS playing a MASTERPIECE

They sound just like the album if not better! This is what music is kids!

Good lord, is it impossible for people to like both Gowan _and_ DeYoung? I do. Y'all need to chill and just enjoy the music.

One of my favorite styx songs of all time

One of my favorite vintage Styx songs

The pipe organ solo in that tune, This is from Chicago's St-James Cathedral. Yes it'a a real pipe organ sound from the synthesiser. It is my Styx preferred album.

Todd Sucherman on the kit is just a monster!

A great uplifting song when everyone around you expects you to be like them.

Who remembers Larry Gowan when he did criminal mind and strange animal when he first started out? I do. Loved criminal mind

My favorite Styx Song

Excellent performance! One of my favorite Styx songs!

Lawrence is fantastic!!! I first saw Styx in 1978. Please remember that you can now see Styx in 3000 person theaters versus the 20,000 person arenas in the 70’s-80’s.

My favorite Tommy solo, so melodic

Magnifique groupe qui a bercé ma jeunesse

The hardest working band anywhere then and today... The only loyal to idea to rock and roll kept the band Styx rockin despite being booed off stages performing DDY ideas of rock n roll during Mr. Roboto. Only one can say his voice is in every Styx Song recorded. JY what a performer and his values shared by his friend and fellow Rocker Tommy Shaw keep the show going. Even when all you complaining who is what n where. Cause they know you couldn't dream of having the talent to pick up a guitar let alone play it masterfully like they do.

Today we have so many positive inspiring song's for our youth and back in the day, this song was ours,....that simple and cool,..'I'm O.K',....right to the point, no need for anymore digging, just move on with life cuz you just said,' you're O.K....love it! in fact thought I was the only one who knew that song :)

One of my favorites ❤❤

At age 300, and 600, and 900, and................ I will be here, and I want to see all of you here, still performing rock concerts. Timeless!!! Energy Healer - Kelly

Having this played at my funeral….hopes it’s gonna be long time from now…😁😁

OMG..this performance is ridiculously awesome.each band member is excellent at what they do

Love the guitar solo!

Thank you for leaving my comment up. I am very honored Tarkus09. The mixing performed by you on this post is immaculate and has been tested on the finest of stereo equipment! I mean what I say about Dennis DeYoung and Mr. Gowan from my heart. I love both of them. I would love nothing more than to see DeYoung, Young, Shaw, and Gowan perform together. It would be Platinum! I listen to this post several times a week. 🙂

For some reason, I've always liked this song.

I’ve never heard this song live . Cool.

The best song of Styx"!!!

Saw them way back in '77 and six times since then--these guys can still rock the house big time!

Would have loved to be a mouse in the corner the day Dennis originally recorded this in the cathedral in Chicago.....

love this one and the organ music is awesome love,judy

I’ve loved this song since’78. No regrets! Lawrence nails it a little better though. Their best album by far. More polished try than the Grand Illusion.

I'm agreeing with some other people about Tommy Shaw he has an incredibly unique sound and style ; a Class Guy ,his entry in the band was a step toward great songs ;Tommy , was as important for styx ,as Steve perry was for Journey . lawrence winged it decently .

One of my all time favourites. Thank you for the music, lovit

Another great STYX performance!

These guys are having fun. They get along with one another and that's why they are still going strong today. With Dennis they were not happy. Watch the interview with them. Leave it at that and enjoy. I see them everytime their close by. STYX KICKING ASS TODAY. DESERVE HALL OF FAME BEFORE 90 PERCENT OF THE BANDS THAT ARE IN. PERIOD.

Immense guitar solo at 2.32. This song typifies vintage Styx. Used to love them.

Amazing performance!

one of my ALL TIME fave tracks . bloody brill post !!!!!

Styxs is Dennis Deyoung Dennis deyoung is styxs no more .

Lawrence is great, from his vocals to his overall performance of songs. This is the line up I grew up with as a kid and I still love them now. I hope I get the experience to see them live one day, they really do put on one hell of a show.

Tommy is still the best in that band stop fighting it's just opinions that's why America is the land of the free

The song that brought me out of a shell.

DDY who? Gowan is awesome he definitely earned his place in Styx, he sings great but he plays the keyboards like a mad man then turn around and play like a classical pianist while he sings a Freddie Mercury song that gets the whole place singing with him. Tommy is writing great stuff and the whole band are some of the best in the businesses check their resumes and it will blow your mind the talent. Just caught them in Greenville April 7th it was awesome and their sound was dead on great job sound techs.

トミーショウのギターソロの何と美しいこと！！！！

MI MEJOR BANDA DE ROCK. FELICITACIONES A TODOS SUS INTEGRANTES.

They are great in concert I saw them a bunch of times Tommy Shaw is clearly the best member in the band

Just saw them this August.. Great performance...Saw them on the Cornerstone Tour for my first time. 1979 ish.. Lawrence 👍...DDY...👍👍

Love this song. Thanks for putting it up so I can share it with my friends when they're not feeling OK. :)

Thanks for sharing ! I was very excited when I've first heard their new album in France, in 77 or 78, I don't remember exactly, Pieces of Eight. It's the same emotion today, this song was my favorite at the time, and it still is. They're all fabulous, and a special mention for Mr Todd S.

People underestimate the difference Todd has made.

Awesome tune and video!

With or without Dennis DeYoung, all due respect to Dennis, this is hands down the best performance I have ever seen from Styx! The mixing on this concert is amazing! Tommy Shaw is off the hook and James Young is Captain Cool on the Strat! Thanks for posting this Jose Luis! Well done Mr. Gowan!

This song is my anthem lately.

Yes, I'm OK!

for me the best band at now.

✌️(thank you,)

The music is all that matters

OK here it is, the ultimate DDY-Gowan solution. Styx should take a page from Foreigner's book, have the main tour with the main guys, and at certain venues do an extended set with DDY making guest appearances on certain songs with Gowan playing a supporting role during these songs. From my seat it worked great for Lou and Kelly in Foreigner, and the sold out crowd went nuts. Its a win-win. The younger guys can play every night it they want, and DDY gets to go on stage only when he wants, and the fans get to witness the entire evolution of the band.

I love them Lawrence Gowan is very nice

Todos los que estamos en base 5 (o casi 6),hemos disfrutado de esta gran banda

As an unabashed Tommy fan, I truly miss Dennis, and I just hope and pray that before it's all said and done that they could do an Eagles like "When he'll freezes over" tour, . I think Tommy and JY, as well as Dennis owe it's fans that much. And if they labeled it a farewell tour, they could probably sell out the stadiums like they did in the 70's.

Ive seen styx AROUND 11 times 5 times with dennis and i don't REMEMBER every hearing them play this song!! But its ok lol

i have to move on you got him you will never leave him

Todd Sucherman is a monster on the kit….!!!

It's so crazy to have all these discussions about DeYoung vs. Gowan. This is Styx. JY + Shaw is more Styx that Dennis alone. JY and Tommy have surrounded themselves with great muscians that may ultimately be together longer than any other lineup. I saw Styx in 83 and loved them. This lineup, in my opinion is better. I have seen enough of DeYoung's Music of Styx on KZfaq that I will probably never go out of way to see him.

Nobody beats Dennis Deyoung....he originally wrote & performed All Styx Music 🎶

my idol

All I can say is dope

Better than ever!!

The B side to the 7" of Babe

Gowan is a keyboard wizard. If you don't recognize that you know zero about playing keyboards. And he is a very good vocalist. Have you heard the albums he cut of his own material? He was a major star in Canada before this gig. There are like ten solo albums of live and studio material. And they do not sound much like Styx. But this is his job now and he is damn good at it. Dennis DeYoung was and is still a remarkable player and singer. He deserves every bit of credit for his contributions to this band. And Gowan does not hesitate to give him props. This crap about who is better is exactly that. A waste of human energy. Tommy and JY can get along with Gowan, they can't get along with Dennis.This is Styx, for better for worse, that's not going to change. They are still one of the tightest bands around. If you don't like it, go see Dennis's band with his Tommy lookalike and second keyboardist. They are quite good. Dennis is a showman and always puts on a great show.

I WOULD RATHER HAVE DENNIS BUT GOWAN IS DOING PRETTY GOOD HERE. HE IS HITTING THE NOTES O.K AND NOT CUTTING THEM OFF SHORT. NOT BAD.

I LOVE LAWARENCE!!!!!!!

Good

Gowan fills in where Dennis should be,. A musical genius Canadien style.

shit that sounds good!!!

You know it

I guess 14 people aren’t ok

Why the tug of war over the past and who was in the band? the only point you have to accept is if they couldn't perform together and get along they wouldn't perform. You would never have had a chance to see them. Which do you actually prefer?

Gowan does it well. But I prefer the wonderful voice of Dennis.

i would ghave to have play room

胸の真ん中をギーッと開いた、跡を見た看護婦さん→何だたいしたことないじゃないの

Styx is just not Styx without Dennis

Riding DDY as usual.

DDY

Is tommy recognized as a guitar god?

Grande Dennis

Julie an Jenny belong to me thay have been arrested thay are getting life

This song is so good you'd have to be a truly awful singer to ruin it. Lawrence Gowan isn't doing anything special with it, and is definitely inferior to Dennis DeYoung, but it's still great to hear it dusted off and played live.

This wouldn't be here - and Gowan either - if it wasn't for Dennis De Young. Copying someone is nothing like creating it from fresh. So phooey on this, no matter how much it might sound like the original. Give the credit where it really is due, to the guy forced out of the band and not here.

I call them "Twigs' now days and will never go to see them even for free The new lead singer should never be allowed to sing this song again, though he can pull some of Styx songs at least half way decently.

Good song, but why do this? Why kick Dennis out of the band then fill half the concert with someone else singing his songs? If he's so horrible, then do a concert without his songs. If you're going to do his songs, then let him back in the band! It's as if they're saying well we hate HIM but not his songs and we want to continue making money off of them, just not with him. That's just mean, unfair and wrong. Do your own songs! Oh wait I forgot, this guy has one, JY has 1 and Tommy has like five or 6 good songs- guess that won't fill a set. Greedy backstabbing disloyal posers who wouldn't be able to make a dime today if it weren't for Dennis and this is how they re-pay him.

with out Dennis, is not Styx

Hate to say it but Gowan Blows Dennis away ....way more talent!!!

Wow. This guy sounds more like DeYoung than DeYoung.

Gowan does a way better job!!! Cheers

Tommy should have gone solo. He does have talent at singing. Not much at putting together a band.

Lawrence is so much better then ddy! And don't have that ego crap! Just my opinion.

the guy singing sounds like the head munchkin

Sorry ...Lawrence isn't able to carry Dennis Deyoungs keyboard case and not even half the vocalist..You can have Dennis without Styx but not Styx without Dennis.......Go out under a different name ...

Stole the name from DDY.

He will NEVER be Dennis DeYoung and the great productions are being ruined imo. It's okay to do this but they should have invited Dennis DeYoung back for this type of performance. Most are all his songs from Pieces of Eight. LG is flat and nasal sounding..not my cup of tea. I am a huge STYX fan...and I just can't handle hearing him singing Dennis songs.
