Styx Compilation for overnight drive

[classicstyxfan]

For this thread ( but not in real life ) I'm making a Styx CD to put in the
Car Stereo to help me stay awake on an "all-nighter" drive. It cant include any slow songs ( First Time would drive me right into the ditch ! )
or even songs with a slower start.

Here are the songs that jump to mind for me:

Midnight Ride
Born for Adventure
Put Me on
Jonas Psalter
I'm gonna Make You Feel it
You need Love
Miss America ( edit out opening keyboards )
The Grand Illusion
Lords of the Ring
Blue Collar Man
Rockin the Paradise ( edit out DDY in the beginning )


What am I missing ? and for fun, if you want to make a 2nd CD featuring other bands, go for it !
