    Please don't hate on my comment but I intend it as a compliment. This is very reminiscent of Kansas and Perfect Lover when John Elefante was with them. This type of music is gone from any mainstream these days sad to say.

    Dave Manion, brother you nailed this performance, I don't even wanna know how many takes it took, mastery is what we were left with.. carry on my wayward son...Billy your harmony is always true, thanks for your persistence in excellence. Mike.. well enuff said, your the bar which all others must study, and if they are lucky, after 30 years of playing they can match you. But I doubt it. Thank you all for this masterpiece that is on display now.

      David Manion is a bad-ass player. That can not be denied but he did not play the keyboard parts on this song. I have no doubt that he could.This video is a "lip synch" so to speak. The keyboards are played by Mike Slamer.

It's a totally awesome song, I didn't know Slamer could write songs this good! My hat is off to him!

    It is amazing how good musicians find each other. City Boy, Kansas, and Queen were three of my favorite bands. I understand Kansas opened for Queen for several concerts. Somehow an English guitar player (Mike Slamer) ended up playing in Streets with Steve Walsh from Kansas. I saw Billy Greer and Kansas play their reunion concert with Kerry Livgren in Topeka and have the live DVD. Good music lives on!

    The old pros showing the artistic precision that has been all but lost as the generation of "I should get it all for free" throws the same level of effort into their music. This is an arrangement with a high level of difficulty, and is damn hard to play. Not just the solos, but the rhythms, counter-rhythms, and that cooler than cool, seamless transition from 6 over 2 to 6/8 for the chorus. Can't sing enough praise (not that my opinion matters anyway). Keep it coming. Someday someone from a future archaeological dig will figure out how to play this and be just as blown away!

    Nights unending, doom impending
    Seemed like nowhere left to turn
    Unforgiven, I`ve been living
    Life on edge --- with bridges burned
    Over thinking, I keep sinking
    Into deep and dark despair
    All my sences, my defenses
    Feel the danger in the air
    I`m no stranger to the danger, face it every day
    Always changing, rearranging, got to get away
    With the weight of the world on my shoulder, living life on the run day to day.
    And there`s nothing but lies as I say my goodbyes, I will survive.
    World of wonder going under
    Always come as no surprise
    Never linger, trigger finger
    Signs begin to fill my eyes
    I`m no stranger to the danger, face it every day
    Always changing, rearranging, got to get away
    With the weight of the world on my shoulder, living life on the run day to day.
    And there`s nothing but lies as I say my goodbyes, I will survive.
