MR

I was looking at every Styx album trying to find something out, and it gave me a thought, bit I need more time to think about it. How about, what if you were going to make a cd, but it could only be with ONE song from every album. Just the regular releases of course, not the live one's or greatest hits, etc...
I am looking forward to what one song everyone is going to pick from every album, so everyone please make one. Please, please.
Seriously, I want to make some cd's for people and I am curious what one song everyone is going to pick from each album. So you should end up with 14 songs-although some may only do 13.

GREAT Question Here I go

Styx 1 : What Has Come Between Us
Styx ll : Lady
The Serpent Is Rising : The Serpent Is Rising
Man Of Miracles : Golden Lark
Equinox : Born For Adventure
Crystal Ball : Crystal Ball
The Grand Illusion : Come Sail Away
Pieces Of Eight : Renegade
Cornerstone : Love In The Midnight
Paradise Theatre : The Best of Times
Kilroy Was Here : Just Get Through This Night
Edge Of The Century : All In A Days Work
Return To Paradise : Dear John
Brave New World : Goodbye Roseland
Cyclorama : These Are The Times
Bonus Track: Little Suzie

I could also make a hell of a good next CD with my choice # 2 from each album!!!!!! Styx 1 : Best Thing.................

Heck,I really LIKE this question, plus (Pieces), I am kind of hoping you will burn me my CD's when I am done. I have all of Styx's CD's but I do not own a burner. Here is my second choice CD.

Styx 1 : Best Thing
Styx ll : You Better Ask
The Serpent Is Rising : Young Man
Man Of Miracles : Unfinished Song(if possible) if not:Evil Eyes
Equinox : Prelude 12/ Suite Madam Blue
Crystal Ball : Claie De Lune/ Ballerina
Grand Illusion : Man In The Wilderness
Pieces Of Eight : Queen Of Spades
Cornerstone : Borrowed Time
Paradise Theatre : Snowblind
Kilroy Was Here : Havent We Been Here Before
Edge Of The Century : Love At First Sight
Return To Paradise : Paradise
Brave New World : What Have They Done To You
Cyclorama : Bourgious Pig/ Kiss Your Ass Goodbye

PS how do you pick Dear John over Paradise and On My Way?

Froy,

You do realize that by including "One With Everything" on your list, you are admitting that Cyclorama is a "Styx" album.

Could it be that the icy exterior is melting?

I'm still thinking, but now I see how you came up with 15 songs. You included Return To Paradise. I wasn't going to because I think of that as comp or live, but I am so glad you did because otherwise, there wouldn't be a Paradise or Dear John-cry:

, that's too funny because when I said that some may only come up with 13, before counting Return To Paradise, I figured some wouldn't include anything off of Kilroy Was Here or Cyclorama.

That must suck. I am always making comp cd's or putting my albums onto my computer to turn into cd's.

Which was the hardest album for you guys to pick ONE from? The Grand Illusion was VERY difficult for me. I came up with-SIX!!
I also found it interesting, that after Cornerstone, nothing stood out and it or it was sort of hard to find one to go nuts about.... :
Their best work, to me, appears to be from Equinox-Cornerstone
Doing this all re-affirmed that The Grand Illusion is still their best album.

Man Hands, & Pieces, I might have also picked Unfinished Song, but is it really on a Styx album?? It is NOT on 'Man Of Miracles'. It is on the cartoon cover of 'Miracles' that RCA did. They even changed the name of the album. I have NEVER heard of that being done. I for one would sure like to have a CD with that song on it. Its only release was on album, 8 track, or cassette. I think it would have to be a bonus track for this question.
As for me not owning a CD burner. That,so far, has been my choice. Sort of a keep the marriage happy type of thing. My wife, plus others have wanted to purchase me one for years. I have refused, because I think I would spend waaaaay too much time burning CD's. A few years back you have no idea how much time I spent on making VHS tapes. A CD burner might only complicate my one addiction.
