Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Which is not a STYX song?

Answer: Kilroy Was Here

All the rest are songs on the "Kilroy Was Here" album. The album had no title track.
2. Which song is not the title track of a Styx album?

Answer: The Best Of Times

"The Best Of Times" is on the "Paradise Theatre" album.
3. What makes "Unfinished Song" different from all other Styx songs?

Answer: It appears on on a compilation album, and a re-release album that is not an official part of the discography

It only appears on "Miracles", which is an RCA retitled re-release of "Man Of Miracles". It does not appear on any release of the album with the original name and art work.

"Music Time", "On My Way", "Paradise", and "Dear John" do not appear on any studio album, but do appear on live albums as original studio tracks. "Little Suzie", and "It Takes Love" appear on "Styx Greatest Hits - Volume 2", but not on a studio album.
4. Which of these songs does not belong in this group?

Answer: Haven't We Been Here Before?

Not just because it's the only title with a question mark. All of these songs are ballads. All were recorded by the same Styx line-up. Only two appear on the same album. The difference? "Haven't We Been Here Before?" is a Tommy Shaw Ballad. The rest are Dennis DeYoung.
5. Which, of the following, is NOT a Tommy Shaw ballad?

Answer: Too Much Time On My Hands

"Too Much Time" is a Tommy Shaw rocker, not a ballad.
6. Which song is the odd one out?

Answer: High Enough

All are songs with Shaw on leads, but "High Enough" is from his stint with Damn Yankees, not Styx.
7. Which of these songs is NOT on the "Cyclorama" album?

Answer: On My Way

"On My Way" is on the "Return To Paradise" album. It matches the distinct "Cyclorama" sound PERFECTLY, which would indicate Tommy had a definite plan for the new direction of the Styx sound WELL BEFORE DeYoung's departure.
8. Which song doesn't belong in this group?

Answer: Paradise

Only "Paradise" is a Styx song. The rest are from DeYoung's solo album, "Desert Moon".
9. Which song is the odd one out?

Answer: Lady

"Lady" is the only one that (a) doesn't rhyme, (b) was released on Wooden Nickel with the original line-up, (c) doesn't deal with drug use.

(If you said "Heavy Metal Poisoning" because it's the only one that sucks, you get half credit!)
10. Which of these songs does not share the same melody with the other three?

Answer: Rockin' The Paradise

True, the intro to "Rockin' The Paradise" does share this melody. But, the intro is listed as a separate track (or song), with a separate title: "AD 1928". (Even though the word "paradise" overlaps from one song to the other.)
