Noontime Nostalgia: Life in the Styx
Posted on January 7th, 2009by april
Once in a good long while, a song will emerge that is not to be forgotten. In 1977, that song was “Come Sail Away” by Styx. Although it only reached #8 on the Pop Singles Chart in its day, it embedded itself into our culture, which you can see with one quick scan of the song’s Wikipedia page. Perhaps the ultimate nostalgia indicator can be found in another television show (that in many ways provided us with even more memories), South Park. Can you remember the last time that this song came on and it DIDN’T turn into the Wayne’s World style Bohemian Rhapsody sing-a-long? Exactly. Perhaps another lip-dub by the ladies of TMI Weekly is in order?
This Noontime Nostalgia brought to you by epic power ballads, piano intros and your friend’s Styx themed tumblr post.

We didn’t think that Styx was still taking up any space in our (admittedly small) brains. Gee Thanks!
