#7 Best Styx Video

Postby Toph » Mon Aug 08, 2011 4:17 am

People either love it or hate it, but there is no denying it brought forth some personality and humor of the brand that hadn't been seen in a video since TMTOMH.

To say and say again, this video was very much in the vein of a huge number of videos done at the time. It is silly and over-the-top but a lot of videos from this era were and there were many of them that I liked. They put a smile on my face, as this one does.

Sign of the times indeed.
Sounds like Styx doing Brit pop,Squeeze on speed.
Was Tommy waving goodbye there at the end.?

I think it was more of a show to appease fans... like he was still a part of the band, but is just doing a solo album.

I can't ever watch this without feeling very embarrassed for all the guys. We've heard so much from the three principles about how things were then; Chuck has touched on it a little; what I would love to know would be what John thought of everything.

I thought Tommy was no longer even in the band when this was shot; they were keeping the state of the band, as a whole, hush-hush, and he filmed his 1 second separately just to fulfill a contractural obligation.
Sometimes it makes no sense at all.

IMHO this is the worst Styx song of all time. It's just awful.
