well despite nights/babyblue's stupid comments, I'll post the answers to this...

Highest charting Styx song on

Billboard Hot 100 Singles - Of course its Babe....easy. Reached #1 for 2 weeks.

Adult Contemporary - Not Babe, not Best of Times, not Don't Let It End....Show Me The Way went to #3

Rock Tracks - Believe it or not, "Too Much Time On My Hands" peaked at #2 just beating out, of all songs, "Mr. Roboto" that peaked at #3 on the Rock Chart (for all the bashing it gets, in addition to its success at top 40, it was also a huge rock track)

And of course the highest charting Styx album was Paradise Theatre, hitting #1 in 1981- the only Styx album to ever achieve the top spot. Also, Paradise has had the most charted singles of any Styx album previously or since. A total of 5 songs charted on one type of chart or another (Best of Times, Too Much Time, Rockin' The Paradise, Snowblind, Nothing Ever Goes As Planned). Although many like to say that Grand Illusion is Styx's biggest commercial album, Paradise Theatre actually had the most commercial success.

Interesting that neither camp does "Show Me The Way" right now, isn't it? It was pretty successful all around, not to mention their most recent big hit.

"Grand Illusion" strangely only had two singles.. I'm still surprised they didn't try the title track.

Well then again, "Babe" was their only number one and the current line up doesn't do it either :wink:
