Lorelei (Styx song)

The song peaked at #27 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 in April 1976 and was the band's second top 40 hit single.^[2] Lorelei also hit number six on the Canadian charts during the weeks of May 8 and 15, 1976.

Chicago radio superstation WLS, which gave the song much airplay, ranked "Lorelei" as the 77th most popular hit of 1976.^[3] It reached as high as number eight (for two weeks) on their surveys of April 17 and 24, 1976.^[4]

Record World described the song as "a hard rocking number with overtones of The Who and Raspberries in its fiery rhythms.^[5]

"Lorelei" was one of the songs that Styx re-recorded for their Regeneration: Volume 1 EP in 2010 with James Young on lead vocals. It was re-recorded again for the 2023 CD Now Playing, a Styx compilation sold at their concerts, with Lawrence Gowan on lead vocals.

Rufinus (poet)

Greek poet of the Roman era (c. 3rd or 4th century AD) Rufinus (Greek: Ῥουφῖνος; fl. c. 3rd or 4th century AD) was a Greek epigrammatist of the Roman era. Life When Rufinus lived is unknown. He probably postdated the Garland of Philip of Thessalonica, produced under Nero.
