Please stop shouting at everyone !!! All uppercase is YELLING !!! We can hear you just fine with normal typing and also, if you want them to be able to pick out the title of the song you want them to react to, then you need to use proper capitalization so they can, as in "Whose Crying Now" (with or w/o the quotes). Just sayin' ...
Journey was my first concert. 13 years old with my older brother! Journey sold out 3 shows in Phoenix in like 2 hours. Remember we had to got to the box offices and buy tickets! It was the 81 tour! “Mother, Father, Sister, Brother” from 81 Houston performance is Perry best vocal performance EVER!
"Stone In Love" is a great rocker. Reminds me of hanging with friends up at the park where everyone hungout, their car stereos blasting the music. Cheers to you both!
He still sounds Great til this day. There is a video of him in the stands of a baseball game and he is singing along with the crowd to Don't stop Believing. Magnificent. Wheel In The Sky is Dope.
This is the best journey line up. Steve Perry singing, Neal Schon on guitar, Johnathan Cain on keyboards, Ross Valory on bass, and Steve Smith on drums. They were the journey I grew up on🔥👍🏼
“Anyway you want it”, “ Be good to yourself “, “ Stone in Love”, “ The Party’s Over”, all bangers….“ Feelin That way/Anytime” also great needs to be played together Best voice in Rock
Sam Cooke is one. He was the inspiration for Steve Perry. As a matter of fact, the opening lyrics for "Lovin', Touchin', Squeezin' are from Sam Cooke song "Nothing Can Change This Love I Have For You" Listen to that and enjoy.
@@Cosmo-Kramer Steve Perry fans can tell the difference.. I know I can and yes I gave the new singers a try! Not the same! My sisters and I have been to many Journey concerts!
Oh mannn same. I worked for ticket master and ticket tron and I still didn’t get to see them and I saw EVERYONE! Oh how I miss 5$ concerts back in the 80s too. Was standard for any band to be under 8$ lol.
For Journey live "Mother Father" is a MUST!! Especially to really appreciate Steve's vocals, and Neal's shredding on the guitar!! The song totally rips, Jay!! 🤘😎
Here's the thing...normally when listening to a live version of a song, you're not getting the optimal vocal interpretation of the song, as you normally get in the studio version. When you listen to a live song, and it's just as good, if not better, than the studio version...that's when you're 'special'. This is why Steve Perry is seen as one of the truly great vocalists.
Your both kind of right. It isn't the Studio version but when you make a live album you have to "clean up" the noise from a live performance. Sometimes the recording equipment picks up drunk idiots yelling obscenities and back then breaking glass bottles and other stuff young stupid kids do for attention at live events. So live albums are recorded live but fixed or cleaned up after.
@@davideberhart9523 many thanks, great video..I remember a Radio 1 DJ here in England when he first played this on national radio, he was so blown away by the ending that he played it over again..Awesome song from a quite brilliant album and band.
I saw Journey live 4 times in the 80's & I can verify Steve Perry & the whole band sounded amazing each time. Yes Jay, you should introduce Amber to "Wheel in the Sky". Also "Mother Father" (live in Houston 1981) really showcases Steve's vocal range. "Lights" (official video), "Any way you want it", "Patiently" (Midnight Special" are a few of my favorites. If you want a more rocker song than "Stone in Love" is a great one. There are so many great Journey songs you haven't checked out yet so keep them coming!
I saw them back in 1981 in Chicago; definitely the best concert I've ever been to also! Back then, tickets were so much cheaper--I really miss those days!
Girl Cant Help It by Journey is another passionate song vocally, but with some balls behind the music - I think you two would like that one (and Randy Jackson from American Idol on bass for the video of it too lol) 😁
I was very fortunate to see Journey on: The Departure tour, Escape tour, Frontiers tour, and Raised On Radio tour! Not one disappointment, the band is phenomenal, and of course Steve Perry is so good live! Please react to Mother Father live in Houston 1981, you'll see his vocal mastery in this song and seeing it live will make you appreciate Journey as a whole! Thank you!
That's great! I have seen a lot of great bands but missed out on Journey when they were in my area. I wish I had seen the Raised on Radio tour. That album is so underrated.
@El Thompson after Raised, I lost touch with Journey and didn't really get into their replacements for Steve Perry! Arnel is a great singer, in my eyes Journey is Steve Perry, Neil Schon, Jonathan Cain, Ross Valory, and Steve Smith!
"...She needed so much more, Than I could give..." . 37 years and counting, we've both moved on to live happy separate lives; Sandra, you're out there and this one's for you. Thank you for all your positive influence making me strive to be a better person.
Lights! A classic Journey song. I worked in Oakland CA. From the parking deck of the hospital I could look and see San Francisco in the evening fog. One day as I was leaving work, this song was playing. ❤❤love
I believe this is a live/studio remix for the official MTV video. Their live in Houston concert from this era is the real deal though and I've seen other reactors do songs from that concert. I believe this track leans on the studio version more than one would think, especially considering how clean the instruments sound during the outro. That said, you guys have only done 7 Journey songs so far. You need more!
You want harder Journey? Chain Reaction. Message of Love, Line of Fire. Stone in Love, Any Way You Want It But I keep asking you to do Who's Cryin' Now. Beautiful song. Great melody. Great guitar solo. To me its the perfect Journey song.
@@Cosmo-Kramer No. It’s not. The tempo is slightly faster than the album version, and even though Perry sounds incredible and is as true to the studio version as he can be, it’s not the original.
@@bryanw4637 It's the original studio album version. It may have been altered a bit, but it's certainly not live. I've seen Journey live, and while Steve's voice is very close to how it sounds on the album, there are always going to be slight variations in a full song, from the studio cut to a live performance. And there are none here. This is *not* live.
Mother Father from Escape is one of their most emotional, deep, hard rocking tunes with Steve Perry performing unimaginable, vocal acrobatics. Absolutely what you're looking for, J.
Actually, this particular video is NOT a live performance. They used live video footage but the recording is the original studio version. They just synced the video up with the recording. Having said that, Perry could EASILY pull this off live flawlessly. The man is the greatest male vocalist to ever grace this planet; that's just fact.
There's a clip of the live version of this performance out there. And it sounds just as good. Even better in some ways, because as usually, Steve does some playing with it.
Mother Father Sister Brother live in Houston concert is the most powerful and incredible performance of Steve and he hits a high note you would not believe. 😮
I saw Bryan Adams and Journey in concert in Lexington, Kentucky in spring of 1983. A concert ticket meant saving up for several weeks but it wasn't a car payment or more like it is now, so I had also gone to their 1981 tour with Greg Kihn Band opening. Steve Perry's voice live is so strong and fills an arena easily yet he still pulls the audience in with emotion.
This song always brings me to tears. Steve's voice is not auto-tuned like so many use these days trying to achieve perfection that makes them sound so fake. Not allowing the nuances of different singers voices is just a crime. It takes the emotion out of it for me no matter the lyrics.
Greetings Jay and Amber This is why Journey will ALWAYS be one of the greatest bands of the 80s and 90s. Every one of the band members is very talented in their perspective parts. This is also why Steve Perry is / was in the Top 5 of the Best Voices of the last 50 to 80 years. If you want a more rock feel song, I highly recommend "Suzanne". It is sort of a love song with a rock beat and feel. It is my second favorite song from them. It is also a song most people forget how great it is.
I think the best way to display his vocal abilities is Still They Ride. My favorite by far of the Journey songs. Some of his solo work is amazing as well.
Journey has such amazing chemistry. The instrumentation, vocals, and lyrics of so many of their songs are proof of this. Personally, Only the Young stands out because of a segment from Behind the Music. The mother of a young fan who was losing his battle with a terminal illness wrote them a letter. Her son's last wish was to meet the band so they rushed to his bedside. They brought with them a tape player and headphones with a demo of Only the Young. He was the first person outside the band to hear the song and just melted into the bed while listening to it. He passed away the next day. It will always be his song.
Steve was the voice and will always be the voice! The whole band was so talented. I saw them many times live and his voice live never failed. Just unreal!! They’ve always been one of my fav bands! Thx guys! Much love and peace! Next …mother father live…you’ll thank me!! Lol
Love the reason of the writing of this song.Jon Cain had someone come up to him and say that one of his old girlfriends said to tell him hello.He answered back to “ Send her my love.”Harder? Try live “La Raza Del Sol” or “ Chain Reaction.”
@@terrigaines1812 … I was wrong. It’s VHS I have them on. I think I have a couple CDs too. Haven’t listened to or watched them in a while, except on RUclips. My VHS player quit working and I haven’t gotten another. Not even sure if I can get one now. Thought I had a DVD of them too though, but I can’t find it. Note: Just found my DVD. IT’s Journey, GREATEST HITS 1978-1997.
I love Journey. Steve Perry is my favorite vocalist of all time! He soothes my soul! Try listening to Mother Father in Houston 1981. His voice is unreal!
Alright my babies..... Legend has it that no auto-tune was used nor needed, let alone invented yet, for exceptional top-tier talent like this ‼️🔥💯🔥💯🎼🎶🎹🎸😎👍🏼
You should have heard them live when they were in their prime. His voice was beautiful, better than studio!!! Even his band members would look at him in amazement.
Steve Perry is one of the best male singers of all time. You can't go wrong with Steve Perry! Have you heard their song, Any Way You Want it? Stone In Love is another great song that shows off Steve Perry's excellent vocal range.
One of my favorite Journey songs. Stone in Love is great as is Only the Young. Really a fantastic catalogue. There is a reason Steve Perry is known as "The Voice." So glad I saw them on the Escape tour in 1981. Memories do remain.
I'm recommending "Anyway You Want It" as Journey's next song you should listen to. Only because I'm pretty sure you've heard "Don't Stop Believin" already. AYWI is one of Journey's best rockin' tunes.
I got to see Journey back in 1976. It was the "Infinity" tour. They were showcasing their new lead singer-Steve Perry. It was a great concert, the opening act was Montrose and their lead singer was Sammy Hagar , maybe you've heard of him.
"You're welcome!" "Stone In Love" by Journey would be to Jay's liking! If you want to hear Steve Perry now, listen to his album "Traces" and react to " Easy to Love", "We're Still Here" and "No Erasin'". Most of this album was written for Kellie Nash, Steve's girlfriend who died of cancer in 2012, and he had promised her he would get back into singing, whether she survived or not. Steve began creating the "Traces" album in 2015. Thank you, Kellie, for sharing Steve with us once again. RIP & God Bless. x
I remember watching this music video on MTV at my girlfriend's house in the Summer of '86. Two months later, we went to the Journey concert together (The Outfield opened). The next day, I left for college. Shortly after that, we broke up. Nearly 40 years later, this remains one of my fondest early adulthood memories. I hope you are well, Cindy. Callin' out her name, I'm dreamin' Reflectiions of a face I'm seein' It's her voice that keeps on haunting me
Any way you want it will always remind me of the scene in Caddyshack where Rodney Dangerfield rips a piece off the front of his golf bag revealing a car stereo and that song comes on full blast across the golf course. lol
No matter who you are, when you hear Journey you become a small town girl living in a lonely world!! Steve Perry sounded exactly like this live! And yes those were lighters the crowd was holding up. I burned my fingers many times at concerts in the 70s and 80s.
I saw them live in a stadium. I went to the Raised on Radio tour, in 1986, at the Seattle Coliseum, later renamed The Key Arena. Best concert of my life.
You both need to react to some of their older hits from a time when Steve Perry and Gregg Rolie shared lead vocal duties. Their harmonies were legendary.

They called him The Voice. Yeah he has awesome vocals
Journey "Mother Father" live 1981 Houston is Steve's greatest vocal performance ever. Be sure to wait for piano solo at the end.
Suggested more times than I can count, hopefully they will see it some day!
Oh, that one is phenomenal!!! I'd also love to see them do "Still They Ride", it gives me goosebumps every time!!!
@@cjpew I just suggested it too.
Yes please you’ll not believe your ears!!

A phone book would sound good!!!!!
@@mikehardesty98 Yeah, I've always said that he could sing the phone book and get a gold record out of it.
Hell yeah. Forever
“Only The Young” is a one of my favorites.
Steve Perry is the voice. A true talent. I could listen to him ALL DAY LONG.
The guitarist never gets enough credit. That guitar can make you soar in your spirit!
Neal Schon. Has some of the best guitar work of all time
Jay & Amber, you'll love their "Don't Stop Believin' " !!!
I’m pretty sure they know that song. Anyone who doesn’t has probably been living under a rock. 😅
This is my favorite song from Journey. There's just something about it, especially the chorus. Melancholy yet powerful.
Gotta agree with you there. So many amazing songs by Journey but this is so powerful!!
Neal Schon's best guitar solo.... hands down
@@joegaydos2951
They were one of the few mega-groups. Not many groups have so many hit records
Its the voice and the guitar but the voice sounds so haunting. The greatest singer ive ever heard.
"Stone In Love" is a great rocker. Reminds me of hanging with friends up at the park where everyone hungout, their car stereos blasting the music. Cheers to you both!
Absolutely! If they want to near Journey rocking out, that’s a great choice.
Agreed!
My favorite.
We would cruise the shopping center in town. Everyone would hang out for hours, jamming to all the great music.
Yes!
... simply gr8 voice...
And such a sweet story!!
He still sounds Great til this day. There is a video of him in the stands of a baseball game and he is singing along with the crowd to Don't stop Believing. Magnificent. Wheel In The Sky is Dope.

Jonathan Cain
Much better with Gregg Rollie on keyboards. The songs were much better too.
This is journey
@@txrojas agreed
Yeah, couldn't agree with you more. Greg Rolle contributed and certainly will always be remembered but, THIS IS JOURNEY!
“Anyway you want it”, “ Be good to yourself “, “ Stone in Love”, “ The Party’s Over”, all bangers….“ Feelin That way/Anytime” also great needs to be played together Best voice in Rock
Why cant this night go on forever
Patiently
Happy to give

You can't compare his voice to ANYONE'S!!! SO UNIQUE! Powerful and beautiful.

Umm, the band has actually replaced him twice with singers that sound almost indistinguishable.
@@Cosmo-Kramer Steve Perry fans can tell the difference.. I know I can and yes I gave the new singers a try! Not the same! My sisters and I have been to many Journey concerts!
Any Way You Want It or Stone in Love are both BANGERS
One of my regrets is never getting to see Journey live back in the day. Such a top quality band and Steve Perry is unmatched.
I was so lucky that I got to see them twice with Perry. And 5 times since.
Same here, they only came to the UK once or twice and missed every occassion :(
Oh mannn same. I worked for ticket master and ticket tron and I still didn’t get to see them and I saw EVERYONE! Oh how I miss 5$ concerts back in the 80s too. Was standard for any band to be under 8$ lol.
Journey is fantastic live. I loved their concert.
You'll get over it.
Journey- “Anyway You Want It” if you want a banger.
Stone in love.
"Any way you want it" is older but good, you really get to hear Steve belt it out and Niel on guitar 🎸 👍 awesome older song.
100% truth - seeing Journey live was like being in the studio with them. Steve Perry was ridiculously flawless.
For Journey live "Mother Father" is a MUST!! Especially to really appreciate Steve's vocals, and Neal's shredding on the guitar!! The song totally rips, Jay!! 🤘😎
Journey "ONLY THE YOUNG" is my favorite song by them. ❤

"Mother Father - Live in Houston 1981" is an absolute MUST! And for a banger, "Stone in Love" also from the "Live in Houston - 1981"
You should have heard them live when they were in their prime. His voice was beautiful, better than studio!!! Even his band members would look at him in amazement.
Steve Perry was known as The Voice! And this is my favorite Journey song. I cry every time I hear it.
Steve Perry is one of the best male singers of all time. You can't go wrong with Steve Perry! Have you heard their song, Any Way You Want it? Stone In Love is another great song that shows off Steve Perry's excellent vocal range.
One of the BEST Journey shows I ever got to see. This tour, and the Escape Tour were outstanding.
One of my favorite Journey songs. Stone in Love is great as is Only the Young. Really a fantastic catalogue. There is a reason Steve Perry is known as "The Voice." So glad I saw them on the Escape tour in 1981. Memories do remain.
I'm going to see Journey March 28th. I'm taking my granddaughter named JOURNEY! This will be her first rock concert,
More Journey please!! Mother, Father, Only the Young (you'll like this one Jay)
I'm recommending "Anyway You Want It" as Journey's next song you should listen to. Only because I'm pretty sure you've heard "Don't Stop Believin" already. AYWI is one of Journey's best rockin' tunes.
Steve Perry’s voice is is so clear and pristine. Reminds me of glass…glass that is fragile and at any moment ready to shatter
Saw Journey on their last tour with Steve and they were simply amazing. One of my all time favorite concerts.
Back then there wasn't auto tune and the singers generally could sing. He sounded as good live as he did on albums. One of the best voices ever!
All of the Journey and Steve Perry you've done I can't believe you haven't done Dont Stop Believing
Journey songs were the epic slow dance songs at middle school and high school dances :)
I got to see Journey back in 1976. It was the "Infinity" tour. They were showcasing their new lead singer-Steve Perry. It was a great concert, the opening act was Montrose and their lead singer was Sammy Hagar , maybe you've heard of him.
"You're welcome!" "Stone In Love" by Journey would be to Jay's liking! If you want to hear Steve Perry now, listen to his album "Traces" and react to " Easy to Love", "We're Still Here" and "No Erasin'". Most of this album was written for Kellie Nash, Steve's girlfriend who died of cancer in 2012, and he had promised her he would get back into singing, whether she survived or not. Steve began creating the "Traces" album in 2015. Thank you, Kellie, for sharing Steve with us once again. RIP & God Bless. x
I remember watching this music video on MTV at my girlfriend's house in the Summer of '86. Two months later, we went to the Journey concert together (The Outfield opened). The next day, I left for college. Shortly after that, we broke up. Nearly 40 years later, this remains one of my fondest early adulthood memories. I hope you are well, Cindy.
Callin' out her name, I'm dreamin'
Reflectiions of a face I'm seein'
It's her voice that keeps on haunting me
Nice to see the youngins appreciate our music 🎵🎶😊👍👍👍👍👍
This is one of my favorite Journey songs! I hear it from time to time on the radio and I love it! I don't hear it often, but it's so beautiful!
I love watching you two discover new music. If you love Perry that much, try his two big solo songs from '84. "Oh, Sherrie" and "Foolish Heart".
Also, I Stand Alone. Love that one!
"Anyway You Want It" is a banger! Also, "Escape" really showcases their composition skills--and it's high energy too!
Yes, if you haven't reacted to it it is definitely a great show case of his vocals, and it's definitely a rocker.
Any way you want it will always remind me of the scene in Caddyshack where Rodney Dangerfield rips a piece off the front of his golf bag revealing a car stereo and that song comes on full blast across the golf course. lol
Please do “Why can’t this night go on forever”…one of Journey’s most underrated songs and my all time favorite. Beautiful and nostalgic.
Love that one!
My favorite song by them
Lighters were a sign of understanding. It means 'we're with you,' we can connect with where you are.
No matter who you are, when you hear Journey you become a small town girl living in a lonely world!! Steve Perry sounded exactly like this live! And yes those were lighters the crowd was holding up. I burned my fingers many times at concerts in the 70s and 80s.
This is my favorite Journey song! It's just so beautiful! ❤️😌
A tremendous, heartfelt song... beautifully sung by the majestic Steve Perry.
Still great! My wife and I listen to Journey on our road trips...one hit after another... fantastic!
I saw them live in a stadium. I went to the Raised on Radio tour, in 1986, at the Seattle Coliseum, later renamed The Key Arena. Best concert of my life.
I saw that tour in Buffalo - will never forget it! 🖤
Send Her My Love is my favorite Journey song. Love love love this. Steve Perry is The Voice ❤️
You both need to react to some of their older hits from a time when Steve Perry and Gregg Rolie shared lead vocal duties. Their harmonies were legendary.
Thats my favorite Journey song. Its got alot of sentimental value from back in the day. Thank yall for reacting to this one.
"Mother. Father" from Journey will mesmerize Rob!
The first time I saw Journey was on this tour and they did, in fact, sound that good live.
