Everyone listens to music... I don't care if it's your Italian grandparents and they listen to Bobby Vinton they still listen to music. Not all people have the same taste in music. Some people like rock, rap, country, classic rock, or gay R&B. But for some reason there are just certain bands that you either like/love them or just absolutely hate them. I believe Journey and Styx to be two of those bands.
Most days at work in the back on the line we have speakers in which we listen to music. Our boss usually hooks his phone up to the stereo and we listen to Pandora Music Radio. Most of the time we listen to classic rock which typically includes bands such as Journey and Styx. Everyone gives me shit during work cause I can pretty much sing along to any song on these stations. This is a product of my parents and their various bands they listen to. My boss flat out asked me one day how i know the lyrics to all these songs and I really couldn't give him a good answer ha ha. But long story short I sing to Journey and Styx and totally get made fun of.
Most people don't understand that Styx has pretty some badass songs. Like take the song Renegade for example... some of the lyrics are
Oh mama, I've been years on the lamb and had a high price on my head
Lawman said get him dead or alive now it's for sure he'll see me dead
Dear mama, I can hear you crying you're so scared and all alone
Hangman is coming down from the gallows and I don't have very long
I mean how badass is that. He's telling his mom that he's gonna die and he is still not giving up. You would understand this if you listened to the song. But no since like they say on Big Daddy "all critics are cynical assholes" who actually talk about Styx. I suggest everyone go home and download a few Styx songs such as Renegade, Too Much Time On My Hands, and Mr Roboto. You won't be disappointed. Ps Too Much Time is a total wedding reception song.
Ok listen up you Fuckers! Journey is an amazing band I don't give a shit what you say. You don't know my life... Anyways, Journey does in fact have some very good songs, plus they will melt your woman's heart. (if you have a woman... I only have a piece of a rabbit fur that I call my GF) But anyways Journey has some very feel good songs such as Don't Stop Believin, Only The Young, and Faithfully. I think these songs along with dropping girls panties (ha ha jk) just make you feel better about the day. Like I used to listen to these songs when I drive if I was like sad and wanted to become uplifted to have fun later or something. The band Journey has more purposes than just slow dancing to their songs at the JH sock hop.
This doesn't mean I don't enjoy my angry white music... I just enjoy other genres also. So next time you think about dissing these bands just remember... that there is a lonely boy somewhere singing along to them ha ha.
This blog is dedicated to those coworkers that call me gay for singing these songs at work.
