top 5 un-greatest Styx Songs

Postby classicstyxfan » Fri Feb 06, 2004 12:30 pm

Here's a twist on the "list" type thread......

Name Your 5 All time Favorite Styx Songs ( or solo work if that's what you like ) Here's the catch...... They must be songs that aren't on Greatest Hits Vol I or Vol 2. For those of you who arent farmiliar with what tracks are on those compilations, you'll need to check them out at Amazon.com, or somewhere else where the info would be available.

I'll name mine this weekend, after I've given this some thought.

EXCELLENT ASSEMBLY LINE question!!!!!
5. You Better Ask- JC off of Styxll- Excellent song that is actually very funny.
4. Golden Lark- I have always loved this haunting song
3. Castle Walls- GREAT GREAT song! One of DDY's and Styx's best ever!!!!!!
2. (tie) Man In The Wilderness, and Just Get Through This Night- Two of my favorite Styx songs -EVER!!!!!
1. Born For Adventure- Styx's best song EVER in my book!!!!!!
note: I did not even consider the CD's Brave New World or Cyclorama because both Greatest Hits 1&2 were already released before these CD's came out.

Suite asks what about Unfinished Song....well as much as I like Dennis, that song isn't one of my favorites. So somehow, I don't see that being on my top 10 list, let alone number 6

Pieces Of Eight
On My Way
I Will Be Your Witness (remixed by Dennis - which doesn't exist but should)
How Should I Feel (great lyric - From 7 Deadly Zens Japanese Import)
Love Is The Ritual (this song is really under-rated and under-appreciated IMO)
