So i got my new computer and now i'm going through the arduous process of recovering all of my music from my Ipod and getting it onto my computer. i decided that in addition to this i would go through all of my cd's and rip the ones that i like too. I'm coming across all of these wierd things that a) I don't remember buying and b) I don't remember liking enough to buy. Anyways i'm finding all this wierd shit like "Chicago's Greatest hits" and "third eye blind" and "jewel" and my all time favorite "styx: the grand illusion." I think it's one thing to download "styx the grand illusion" for free from napster because it's campy, but it's a whole other thing for you to go out to the wherehouse and actually physically pick out "styx the grand illusion" and then pay full price for it, because this is actually what i did. God i fucking love styx! And so i leave you with this, Dennis DeYoung's words to live by. Ok no joke though read the lyrics, it's kind of deep in a not deep and yet so deep way.
Welcome to the grand illusion
Come on in and see whats happening
Pay the price, get your tickets for the show
The stage is set, the band starts playing
Suddenly your heart is pounding
Wishing secretly you were a star.
But dont be fooled by the radio
The tv or the magazines
They show you photographs of how your life should be
But theyre just someone elses fantasy
So if you think your life is complete confusion
Because you never win the game
Just remember that its a grand illusion
And deep inside were all the same.
Were all the same...
So if you think your life is complete confusion
Because your neighbors got it made
Just remember that its a grand illusion
And deep inside were all the same.
Were all the same...
America spells competition, join us in our blind ambition
Get yourself a brand new motor car
Someday soon well stop to ponder what on earths this spell were under
We made the grade and still we wonder who the hell we are

hey good lyrics! deep but in a not deep, yet still deep sorta way, i totally get it!
how are you ripping your songs from your ipod to your computer? i lost all my music months ago and haven't updated my ipod since cause i'm afraid i'll plug it into the PC and itunes will automatically update and i will lose all my music, thus tragically ending my life forever.
