Hello Kim, how're you doing? Your comments caught my attention and that is why I am reaching out to you. Your fan love for me warms my heart, Thank you! It's nice meeting you here.
Steve Perry's voice cuts through me like a hot knife through butter. Makes me cry every time he goes into the upper range. It's soul shattering with ease. Takes me back to wonderful memories. That's a God given gift he has. A blessing to millions of listeners it touches.
Wait Anil ~ you're a guy who admits Steve Perry makes you cry? Yes! So cool to hear a guy admit that a singer like Steve Perry! Me too, although I'm a female! You're a rarity for sure! ☺️
@@AnilRamcharitar Great taste in music my friend. I love so many genres and there's always 1 or 2 songs from each that bring me to tears. Did you grow up in the 70's, the generation that gave us some of the greatest musicians, singers, songwriters of this generation?
@@J2000LT I agree. Yes, I am a 70s baby. Grew up in the Caribbean in Trinidad & Tobago. And this genre of music was big and still is because it’s romantic and the ladies love it. I also a Dj. So done a lot of parties, weddings and private events where bands like Journey are still requested to be played.
He is pitch perfect which not many singers are. He was and still is known as The Voice, long before the current TV show! I love this man, as do millions of his fans. Great choice, one of my favorites!
If I remember correctly, Steve recorded this in one take, no mistakes. You should hear how high he gets in 1981 singing Mother/Father. You almost confuse his voice with an instrument.
Actually he was 'The King and Master' of the Mix-Technique.. He mastered Mixing his Voice with Falsetto 'headvoice', flawless as in effortless. Amazing it is..
Steve doesn't sing in falsetto , falsetto is technically screaming . He has a 5 range octave . And on this album he does all the singing , all the backup vocals are him .
His voice HEALS me, that's how i describe it. Just like Karen Carpenter and Amy Grant. Their voices repair my soul, bring it warmth and joy. Absolutely LOVE it.
@@britturk123 yes!! Have you listened to all of her songs? People react to her very lil...I find it sad because she has so many beautiful songs...that were non hits!
@@michaelasay8587 Karen Carpenters voice can go so melancholy and even dark that even Adele seems happy and positive, even ın her most harshest break up song. There is only one Karen Carpenter when it comes to beautiful yet heart wrenching vocal ability, her voice was simply sublime.
I'm glad you mentioned that music (and certain voices) HEAL you. I've thought that way for quite some time. Music, in general, seems to have the ability (like a universal language) to touch our souls. Karen Carpenter happens to be my favorite, but I love LOTS of others as well. Karen's tone, clarity and enunciation soothes in such a special way, like she's stepping off a star. If you haven't already, check out her medley with Ella Fitzgerald. The two of them are sensational. Karen's version of "My Funny Valentine" gives me the chills. Also, Ella's duet with Frank Sinatra, "The Lady is a Tramp" is uncommonly good.
If you haven't listened to them yet, "Any Way You Want It," and "Stone in Love" are two of my favorite Journey songs that really showcase Perry's amazing vocals.
When I was about 4-5 years old and cable TV was still a pretty new thing, there were two music video channels, MTV and VH1, and I would just sit at home watching VH1 all day specifically waiting for this song to come on. This would have been about 1986-87.
Brother Shane Charlie Sheen he said at the best if I was a woman at a journey. Journey concert. Any woman learned the journey. Any woman at the journey concert? Yeah she was there if steve would ask her to went home she would have been holding hands with stevie and going You would want Stevie sway anybody. If? She s*** a book got married that. Day or a year ago or ten years ago I was wouldn't imagine she had to bend down the road with steve
Sir I always thought it was a shame that the old keyboard is when I start it like. On the song anytime anytime the dude that was saying in a lot of the songs was also playing keyboard. It was him and Steve Perry going back-and-forth back-and-forth. I thought that now that was real AHA raw wrong.😅
This song gets me thinking of a real love story, from late in Steve’s life. While he was still very far away from the music world, he had an exchange with a friend who was working with terminal cancer patients. Steve looked through a portfolio of their photos, and saw a woman who basically stole his heart. They went on to have a relationship, even though her prognosis was that she would not recover. But before she passed away, she made him promise her something: that he wouldn’t return to that isolation before he met her, and would get back to music. And he has kept his promise to her.
Mr. Perry just walks out, takes a seat & bamm, hits you with that beautiful voice. From the first note your hooked, captivated & can't help but listen to him sing. There's no other voice like his, he melts my heart everytime I hear him❤
Hello Angela, how're you doing? Your comments caught my attention and that is why I am reaching out to you. Your fan love for me warms my heart, Thank you! It's nice meeting you here.
He was gifted with a beautiful voice. Its 100% from God. That's why he sings so effortlessly. The best singers all have great talking voices, you can't teach that.
This song is off of Steve Perry's first solo album, "Street Talk". I purchased this album as soon as it was released in 1984. The entire album is good but the most notable tracks on it (for me) is this one and these, "Oh Sherrie" (which you've already sampled) and "Running Alone". This song however, was the reason I purchased the album in the first place, only to be pleasantly surprised by the entire LP. You guys really should check out "Running Alone". Peace & Love🕊❤
They kept this video very simple or bare boned to highlight Steve's performance. You come away realizing how EPIC and non-simple his voice is as he is spotlighted in this video. I agree Amber, it is if he was performing in front of a live audience. Great video guys. Take care.
JOURNEY - WHO'S CRYING NOW / from their 1981 Escape Album studio recording, if you guys liked this song by Steve Perry then you'll absolutely like this Soft Rock song with Neil Schons Super talented Guitar sounds it's an Amazing song
I appreciate the Steve Perry years…..I first got hooked on Journey before he joined and still love those albums …..Steve voice was definitely touched by God
Dolly Pardon is coming out with a rock album featuring a list of rock icons. She is doing "Open Arms" with Steve Perry. Can't wait to hear it. There are 30 songs on this album, so check it out (will be out in November).
He's called "the voice" because even his normal talking voice sounds great, that's why he's such a great singer. People either have it or they dont. All the singing lessons in the world don't matter if your normal voice doesn't sound good.
Steve Perry, Anne Wilson, Freddy Mercury and Linda Rondstat … 4 of the best, purest vocalists of the rock era. Their range.. their emotion. 4 incredible talents that we are fortunate to have on recordings.
Steve did "I Stand Alone" for the animated film "Quest for Camelot", along with the track "United We Stand". But the other outstanding track from that film was "On My Father's Wings" by The Corrs, which I'd really recommend.
WHO DEY!! And yes, Steve Perry’s vocals are amazing. He got a LOT of inspiration listening to Sam Cooke growing up as a kid. You can hear similarities when you listen to both of their singing back to back.
I worked in a tiny neighborhood bar when this came out. One night after closing the dj let me mess around in his booth. I played this song 3 times in a row with headphones on and belting it out into the microphone. Combined with the big old drink I had while doing cleanup it was a very dreamy immersive experience. My coworkers were in the other room and let me have my moment. Then came around the corner applauding. I ❤️ Steve Perry.
Jay some of these are for you :) Feelin that Way/Anytime (Find it with both these songs together, also, this is when Steve first joined the bad and is sharing vocals with Greg Rollie on these. You can hear how and why Steve got moved to the front of this band) - Anyway you want it - Stone in Love - Keep on Runnin - Mother, Father (Live in Houston '81) - Troubled Child - Only the Young. Enjoy!
Steve Perry doesn't have a "falsetto", that's his vocal range. Per vocal coaches, Perry is one of the greatest vocalists of all time. He has 2 newer albums done in 2018 when he was nearing age 70 and he's great on both of them. Check out "Traces" and "The Seadon", his Christmas album. My favorite of all time is and will always be "Street Talk"! Phenomenal album!!!
Steve Perry, a Voice, that stands alone, forever.
If it's Steve Perry, it's amazing. No explanation needed.
My man. He is still going strong at 74. I still crush on him at 60.
Hello Kim,

Yup fell for his voice first time I heard Lights fell for him when I bought the album and have just kept falling all this years. I am 61.
Steve Perry's voice is 24k gold. 😍
Absolutely 🎉❤

my two top male rock voices - Burton Cummings and Steve Perry.
AMEN!!!!!!!
Steve Perry has a voice that is excellent as soon as he sings you know he's about to take your breath away in anything he sings
@@perezynkrs1 yes!!!!
The best Malé voice ever
This man.....was born to sing! My all time favorite singer!
He is pitch perfect which not many singers are. He was and still is known as The Voice, long before the current TV show! I love this man, as do millions of his fans. Great choice, one of my favorites!
I just love the way Steve Perry's voice bounces in my heart and ears
If I remember correctly, Steve recorded this in one take, no mistakes. You should hear how high he gets in 1981 singing Mother/Father. You almost confuse his voice with an instrument.
No one could top his vocals!!
There is no falsetto whatsoever with Steve Perry. He is one of the most true tenor voices out there. Great artist and talent!
Actually he was 'The King and Master' of the Mix-Technique.. He mastered Mixing his Voice with Falsetto 'headvoice', flawless as in effortless. Amazing it is..
Steve Perry- absolute perfection!
No falsetto- Steve is a countertenor ! That’s his genuine range.
Steve Perry "Open Arms". ♥️💕👍
Journey is one of the best of all time steve perry has that voice that will absolutely make u dance out of your skin love this group
Steve doesn't sing in falsetto , falsetto is technically screaming . He has a 5 range octave . And on this album he does all the singing , all the backup vocals are him .

They haven’t yet but they need to.
And especially "Mother father" live
These 2 are so far behind on so many songs and artists.
Ask the lonely too!
Totally agree!
Steve Perry.
One of the best vocalists in modern music.
My Top 5 vocalist
steve perry and bobby hatfeild and my top 2 singers of all time
One of the absolute best voices in rock music

Steve Perry ❤ The best!!!
Greatest voice ever recorded.
The greatest solo vocal performance by Steve Perry is "Captured by the moment" for showing the vocal range .. awesome song
I always LOVED his voice! Yes, he is blue-eyed soul for sure. He has diverse fans for sure (like myself) who are R&B people.
Actually, his eyes are green.
He did this in one take.🤯🤯
He loved R & B. His inspiration was the great Sam Cooke
Steve Perry caresses the lyrics with his voice. His phrasing is outstanding. Truly a gifted, great singer.
Check out his song, Strung Out and his duet with Kenny Loggins, Don't Fight It.
Absolute perfection!
The Voice. Nuff said.❤️
THE VOICE!!!

I'd rather have 30 minutes of wonderful...than a lifetime of nothing.
Yes, I heard an interview with Perry and he told of the love they had together along with his promise to her
Yes, he did, and his new stuff is fantastic he sounds more like Journey today than Journey does No Erasin Steve Perry
@@kelliekretzmer4998 Ahhh....another Steel Magnolias fan. :)
I'm so glad Kelly told him to go back to his passion. He promised her and he's back. His last studio album "Traces" has some great songs on it.❤

Hello Angela,
how're you doing?
Your comments caught my attention
and that is why I am reaching out to you.
Your fan love for me warms my heart, Thank you!
It's nice meeting you here.
Steve Perry has one of the best voices on the industry. You can't go wrong with any of his songs.
His solo song Oh Sherrie is wonderful
Steve Perry has an amazing voice but the thing I love about him is that his voice isn’t falsetto. He can actually hit those notes. Amazing!!!
Agreed. I was wondering if anyone else picked up on that comment too. Either way though, voice of a freaking angel. ❤️
He was gifted with a beautiful voice. Its 100% from God. That's why he sings so effortlessly. The best singers all have great talking voices, you can't teach that.
I highly recommend “Mother, Father” from Journey’s live performance in Houston in 1981. Steve Perry hits notes that are just not humanly possible.
This song is off of Steve Perry's first solo album, "Street Talk". I purchased this album as soon as it was released in 1984. The entire album is good but the most notable tracks on it (for me) is this one and these, "Oh Sherrie" (which you've already sampled) and "Running Alone".

Best voice ever!!! ❤❤❤❤❤ His voice is soothing, controlled and AMAZING!!
I love Steve Perry
A generational voice, the voice of a million young ladies hearts. We were blessed to have heard it.
They kept this video very simple or bare boned to highlight Steve's performance. You come away realizing how EPIC and non-simple his voice is as he is spotlighted in this video. I agree Amber, it is if he was performing in front of a live audience. Great video guys. Take care.
JOURNEY - WHO'S CRYING NOW / from their 1981 Escape Album studio recording, if you guys liked this song by Steve Perry then you'll absolutely like this Soft Rock song with Neil Schons Super talented Guitar sounds it's an Amazing song
Steve Perry is Journey, without Steve Journey would have never been a known band. He is "The Voice"!!
His best song as a solo artist, imo.
I grew up on Journey. In the 80’s I remember riding in my uncles TransAm and hearing this song. Talk about nostalgia.
You two should really listen to anytime and feeling that way.
Just a reminder that "Mother Father" from Journey's '1981 - Live in Houston' showcase's Steve Perry's vocal range like no other.
I appreciate the Steve Perry years…..I first got hooked on Journey before he joined and still love those albums …..Steve voice was definitely touched by God
Love Steve Perry! I can listen to his voice all day every day! 🎶❤🎶. I can’t wait to hear his duet with Dolly on her new rock album!
I think it's going to be phenomenal. Reminiscent of Kenny and Dolly... with a twist.
Yes! I'm so looking forward to that!
Check out his duet with Kenny Logins "Don't Fight It", if you haven't already.

The best voice in rock n roll ever!!!!!
First heard him on We Are The World which led me to this song and i've been hooked since
As they say 'he could sing the names in a phone book' and it would be flawless !!!! 👏🏼 🤗
The song “Mother, Father “ live. You’ll be blown away by his voice
Yes please! Houston 1981 concert.
Journey “who’s crying now” studio version is the next group song you should check out.
One of my all-time favorite Steve Perry songs.... amazing vocals and lyrics
That's one of the MANY reasons he's called "The Voice!" He's just AMAZING at any type of song he sings!
I was goin to say the same thing!!!
From what I understand Jon Bon Jovi started cashing him that and it stuck... I'd love to hear from anyone weeks who may now the truth or more in depth
@@txtamaman That's what I've heard and read as well. It fits Steve PERFECT!
He's called "the voice" because even his normal talking voice sounds great, that's why he's such a great singer. People either have it or they dont. All the singing lessons in the world don't matter if your normal voice doesn't sound good.
Please do Mother Father live in Houston. You won't believe how good it is! Steve Perry is The Best vocalist of all time!
Thanks for the comments and and for liking my page , Support you showered on me, I hope you never stop listening to my music
You're so welcome! I will always be one of your top fans!
That's not Steve Perry😂
Get a life fellah. What kind of person goes around trying to act like Steve Perry😂 weirdo
Steve Perry, Anne Wilson, Freddy Mercury and Linda Rondstat … 4 of the best, purest vocalists of the rock era. Their range.. their emotion. 4 incredible talents that we are fortunate to have on recordings.
Steve has another solo song that I absolutely love. Called "I stand Alone". Its a beautiful song, and his vocals are incredible! 😊
Agreed, love that one. And Strung Out as well.
@@cjpew I would love to hear Still They Ride. Great vocals on that one.
and Sherrie is really good!
@@lamusiclover2264 It is - they already did that one about a year ago.
Steve did "I Stand Alone" for the animated film "Quest for Camelot", along with the track "United We Stand". But the other outstanding track from that film was "On My Father's Wings" by The Corrs, which I'd really recommend.

Great suggestion 💖
Best male voice ever....period! His live version of the song Patiently is phenomenal!
Yepppp the best
This is one of Steve Perry's solo work... I think. Such a great song.
Great pick, you can never mistake Steve Perry’s voice, so sexy!
There was only one of these...Steve Perry.
I love his voice, and I will never get tired of it. Thank you for reacting to him ❤❤❤
Steve Perry’s vocals will forever be some of my all time favourites ❤ if I could sing like him, I’d never not sing. I’d sing-order my coffee!
Steve Perry is and ALWAYS will be Journey, PERIOD.
WHO DEY!! And yes, Steve Perry’s vocals are amazing. He got a LOT of inspiration listening to Sam Cooke growing up as a kid. You can hear similarities when you listen to both of their singing back to back.
This song is full of that Sam Cooke influence.
Certainly one of the great voices of the 20th century. Never bad. Always filled with feeling. Loved the reaction.
I see that you have redecorated the wall, nicely done! Perry just has one of those pure voices for sure
You hit it on the head … “… it’s soothing, it’s warm like a blanket”. So right!!!!!!
One of the best male voices of the era.
One of my favorites- Please listen to send my love
Steve is definately in my top 5. I like in this video how it's just simple. He walks on. Sings amazing. Then walks off.
His voice is GOAT!!!
Steve Perry Oh Sherrie
There's an old clip of Randy Jackson (American Idol) talking about Steve having soul in his voice.
I worked in a tiny neighborhood bar when this came out. One night after closing the dj let me mess around in his booth. I played this song 3 times in a row with headphones on and belting it out into the microphone. Combined with the big old drink I had while doing cleanup it was a very dreamy immersive experience. My coworkers were in the other room and let me have my moment. Then came around the corner applauding. I ❤️ Steve Perry.
Steve met Kenny Loggins while recording "We Are The World". They go on to record a duet. You will ❤ ❤ ❤ "Don't Fight It". ITS A MUST!😊
No other voice like Steve's. His solo work is excellent. Still has the same Journey feel, which is NEVER a bad thing.
Jay some of these are for you :) Feelin that Way/Anytime (Find it with both these songs together, also, this is when Steve first joined the bad and is sharing vocals with Greg Rollie on these. You can hear how and why Steve got moved to the front of this band) - Anyway you want it - Stone in Love - Keep on Runnin - Mother, Father (Live in Houston '81) - Troubled Child - Only the Young. Enjoy!
Steve Perry is totally awesome. No other voice can compare to his. Absolutely love him.
He is almost always on everybody's list of best male voices of that era. I think of Freddie, Perry, Delp, of course Barry, and a couple of others
One of my favorite songs has such a nice feeling to it
I remember this song constantly on the radio growing up. Silky smooth adult contemporary music. Still is.
Love this song beautiful
My other favorite of his is Oh Sherrie
Amber & Jay, here are some Journey songs to check out: "Edge of the Blade", "Rubicon", "Stone in Love", "Still They Ride".
YESSSSS this one is a classic and his voice is undeniable. 👏👏👏💯💯💯
Steve Perry doesn't have a "falsetto", that's his vocal range. Per vocal coaches, Perry is one of the greatest vocalists of all time.
He has 2 newer albums done in 2018 when he was nearing age 70 and he's great on both of them. Check out "Traces" and "The Seadon", his Christmas album.
My favorite of all time is and will always be "Street Talk"! Phenomenal album!!!
If I remember correctly this was his follow up to "Oh Sherri" a hit at the time but sounded kinda Journey-ish.
Phenomenal song. Steve Perry vocals. .. gets me in my feels.
