Styx, 'Come Sail Away' Live From Las Vegas: Exclusive Premiere
Written by Dave Lifton
On July 24, Styx will release Live At The Orleans Arena Las Vegas, and we are pleased to have the premiere of one of the songs from the CD, “Come Sail Away.”
Recorded on July 25, 2014 in Las Vegas during last year’s Soundtrack of Summer tour with Don Felder and Foreigner, the CD features 12 songs, including such beloved Styx hits as ‘Too Much Time on My Hands,” “Blue Collar Man (Long Nights)” and “Renegade,” as well as deep cuts like “Light Up,” “Superstars” and “Suite Madame Blue.”
“Come Sail Away” was featured on 1977’s triple-platinum The Grand Illusion. It reached No. 8 on the Billboard Hot 100 and sealed down the No. 2 spot on our list of the Top 10 Styx Songs. The song was recently put back in the spotlight when a video of a homeless man performing it on a public piano went viral, causing many to donate money to help him get back on his feet.
Styx are currently on their 2015 U.S. tour as part of a triple bill with Def Leppard and Tesla. The stretch will run throughout Oct. 4.
