前Styx合唱團主要人物Dennis DeYoung推推出新video給歌迷們分享
Dennis DeYoung五月22日推出一個為他的新專輯26 East, Vol. 1當中的歌"To the Good Old Days"所拍的video，歌的主唱是Julian Lennon。
這段video由DeYoung歌唱生涯和他50年婚姻及家庭生活的精采錄影與圖片剪輯而成。
Dennis DeYoung表示: "對Jules和他而言，這是一個很特別的合唱經驗"，"他主唱我和音，我太喜愛了，這首歌是我專輯裡最後一首歌，那是我對美好的往日說再見的歌，包含我的歌迷、好友、家庭和寬恕"。
在"To the Good Old Days"裡他有一段終曲"A.D. 2020"，聽得出他在演唱時的告別之意，"For time has claimed its prize,
but the music never dies / Just listen and close your eyes and welcome to
paradise"(很熟悉的曲子，Styx 的1981年專輯Paradise Theatre開場與結尾的AD1928及AD1958就是這個調子)
DeYoung表示:他替這張專輯不很好的鍵琴、鼓、貝斯、新聞和部分歌聲修飾過，噢! 真受不了! "To the Good Old Days"裡的鼓聲是我兒子Matthew打出來的。
DeYong 還說:這張專輯的第二集稍後會推出，那將是他歌唱生涯的終點。
﹤26 East, Vol. 1﹥有10首歌，其中"To the Good Old Days"是為已故披頭合唱團the Beatles團員John Lennon的兒子 Julian Lennon所寫…，(2020/02/06我曾介紹Dennis DeYoung的這張新專輯) 。
"To
The Good Old Days"
(feat. Julian Lennon)
It's so hard to say goodbye
So I promise not to cry
But any tears that might be shed
Are only tears of joy
And I thank my lucky stars
That we've come so very far
Rising up against the odds
To where we are today
Though there may be sadness
Let's all raise a glass
Cheers to us
And all that's past
To the good old days
When the world was new
When we still believed
Dreams could come true
To the good old days
And to all our friends
May the memories last
May they never end
So we'll go our separate ways
Wishing somehow we could stay
Safe again, so safe again
In all our innocence
When we all would sing along
As they played our favorite song
Dreaming of tomorrows
It seemed so limitless
So as we come together
Let's make this moment last
Here's to us (yeah, here's to us)
And to the past
To the good old days
To the sweetest years
To the ones we loved
Through the laugh and tears
To the times ahead
May we all forgive
To the good old days
Long may they live
Funny how the years have slipped away
Always there beyond our grasp
Funny how it all seems looking back
Oh, whoa
To the good old days
When we all were young
To the love we shared
May our songs be sung
To the times ahead
May we all forgive
To the good old days
May they always live
