Such a solid analysis on Steve's voice. He was gifted with an incredible tonal quality. Even his talking voice is easy on the ears.
Steve Perry's voice is actually electrifying. The band was tight and great all together but Steve sends that song into the stratosphere with his vocals. And notice that there are no special visual effects. I love The Who but why they needed the lasers I never knew. Also the interaction (or seeming to) by going down that catwalk into the heart of the audience just makes this performance so deeply personal and even more electrifying. ⚡
Steve Perry, he was and will always be my favorite singer! His voice still gives me goosebumps...
Shit! I am a guy and I do not like guys but his voice gives me goosebumps too! Greatness is greatness no matter who it is! "Rock!"
Literally!!!💕
You always knew it was Journey , even if it was a brand new release. That voice was heaven sent.
Always and forever!
Even now, when his voice is lower and a lot rougher, Perry still has that same phrasing and tone that tells you instantly, "That's Steve Perry".
Have a listen to some of the backing tracks, Steve hits some pretty sound notes. He does the same in the last two songs with the EELS in LA in 2014.
What a performance. I am so glad that you are here to celebrate and call attention to such greatness. Steve Perry is like Bobby Hatfield in that his gift (or whatever you want to call it, other worldly talent) sits lightly on his shoulders, just like breathing, they think nothing of it. Perhaps they just want us to think so. Whatever the case, I for one can only stand in awe of such talent and be glad that you are here to explain why it affects us the way it does. Love what you do, so glad I found your channel! Thank you Professor!
Wow, you put that perfectly! That’s exactly how you,Pegasus, explain to us and we understand.
Great job. 👏🏻👍🎶
Neal plays like Steve sings. All naturally gifted heart and soul. That's why, musically at least, they were so amazing together.
I ADMIRE YOU. YOU ARE VERY PROFESSIONAL AND VERY KIND
Thanks!

@@kenholley9431 God Bless your dad! What a guy!!
Not so much a Journey fan, but a music history aficionado? You bet.
Thanks for getting those of us on the (Pacific) west coast through some sleepless nights with your obvious understanding and interest. It’s rather contagious.
This man's voice is 🔥💯 the best EVER!!!!!!
Steve Perry is one of my all-time favorite singers. I love his voice!!
I've been on another bender today watching your videos...this is a great way to cap off my night before I head to bed!!! I've said it before, but it's so refreshing to see someone so positive who obviously loves what he is doing.
Amen!
rphnick Same and not just loves, but is incredibly knowledgeable.
I totally agree! I love that YT has created this venue for folks in situations like Fil here to broaden their reach and we can all get a dose of Fil's enthusiasm for his subject.
If you want to be blown away by his singing ability you gotta watch/listen to Mother, Father from the same 81" concert!!! He recorded it in 1 take, it's the end of the song that's incredible!! I absolutely LOVE this song & have since hearing in 81' Fil you'll love Neal's solo during this song & Johnathon Cain's piano solo at the end!! Make sure to watch the 7 minute live video
SP wrote it about his parents.
Our San Francsico hometown band. Journey played at my high school in the Bay Area, just before they hit it big. No one can replace Steve Perry.
If you only knew at the time what that meant? Awesome!
Kathy Prior I was lucky to be teenager at that moment in time, in the SF Bay Area. We got to see all the great bands.
@@sassyt1545 That was Jimi Hendrix's fav. place to perform, and his audiences there, just adored him!
You are incredibly lucky, I'm pleasantly Jealous ‼️
@ Paula Blissett There is a Jimi Hendrix walking tour in SF. 😊
I get chills when I hear Steve Perry’s voice. He is so flawless and his emotion when he sings, can make one cry. His voice is that beautiful and amazing!!!!!! He is truly “The Voice”!!!! The most FANTASTIC front man ever. Freddie Mercury would come in as number 2.
I first saw Journey in a small college gym when Gregg Rolie was still the lead singer, and they were going for a heavy rock sound. They were unfortunately booked between the Winters Brothers Band and Charlie Daniels, two southern rock acts. It was a very bad idea. Journey was literally booed off the stage. A couple years later, I went to see them again in another small college gym, this time after their first album with Steve Perry. A different outcome, indeed - the crowd refused to leave. The house lights actually came up, but went back down again for one last song, a FOURTH encore! It was a true encore, the only one I've ever witnessed. I'll never forget it...Steve Perry walked out and said to the crowd, "You people are f------ nuts. But we're even more nuts, so here we go again!" Then they broke into Wheel In the Sky. It was obvious that night that the Steve Perry era was going to go a lot better than the band's first endeavors.
Fil, you laid out every reason why I asked for this DVD for Christmas last year. It's just a magical performance by all members and something you just don't see anymore.
Steve “ The Voice” Perry. Greatest pipes ever. He idolized Sam Cooke and you can always hear it.
Karen Nyere Absolutely! He has taken so much from the great Sam Cooke and makes no secret of it.
One of my favorite bands of all time..
Have you ever watched Mother Father, live in Houston, 1981? Live, not studio, is by far the better version... talk about off the charts, powerful vocal acrobatics. Wow. Strongly recommend; that man's voice is nothing short of phenomenal.
Perry has power in his vocal projection. He can throw the microphone away and sing without one.
Can't get enough of Steve Perry, and now can't get enough of Fil. This video is my all time favorite of Steve performing, so happy to hear that he has returned to his studio, and still working on new music. Now we have to get Fil some help, so that he can return to recording. His songs stay with me as much as Steve's. The world needs more of his music!
After I seen Journey the first time I couldnt believe how fantastic they were live. I couldnt believe his voice, and of course I was so jealous of his pretty hair.
The one and only Journey !
No Steve Perry = No Journey ! 😎🎙
One of the greatest voices in rock ! Thank you Fil 😆🤘
always sounds so effortlessly done
Steve Perry's voice is so amazing! There could.never be another voice quite like his. His voice is WOW!
Steve Perry is my all time favorite singer. Not just the range it's the emotion in his voice. I know he models himself after Sam Cooke, his favorite singer.
You never disappoint sir. Journey was so good then, a lot of other artists and bands were very jealous of them. They used to catch so much hell it actually was a big issue for them. But, the great ones always make it look, and sound easy. Happy Holidays...Rock!
I was never a massive Journey fan,but could always admit that Steve Perry was clearly one of the great voices in the history of rock n roll
Yes, for some reason they never were my favorite. But after being a sub since about 23,000 (back in the day) I have come to appreciate Fil and his love of the music and musicianship, as well as the humanity. I've watched several live streams, usually after the fact, and I know that Fil can also do a very good cover of these songs. He has pipes as well as chops.
What an awesome song! Geez I was only 28? I was a mom and still loving this music. How did I get old so fast🤣🤣🤣
Steve Perry can come sing to me any day of the week, even NOW, he sounds great! Hail 'Journey'! and Hail to you Filip for a great analysis!!
Paula Blissett, If Steve Perry not available on Christmas Day? perhaps Fil, would sing to You and all who tune in on Livestream Tuesday?
@@drewpall2598 That would be nice...
I knew his dad Ray!..... Love Journey and Steve will melt your face with that VOICE!!
Love your analysis. I agree that, as a countertenor, Steve's range was naturally higher than most. But hitting high notes was not his greatness; it was all about technique and feeling. Mastery of the mixed voice, long legato phrases and so much feeling that Steve could have told the story without words. Not just luck or a freak of nature, but hard work got him there. Live performances were always perfect, better than in the studio. For me, he is the GOAT.
Well said.
Well said
No need to click on the video link. I've seen it countless times, literally. Unbelievably good! I love that you have so much appreciation for some of the older, classic rock, (and other genres of music) and while I'm not a musician I really enjoy listening to your analyses and it helps me to appreciate even more the music so many of us loved. Fil, you would have fit in so well back in the 70's and 80's. Rock on.
I've watched that video countless times. I adore Steve Perry. He was one of my standards when I was learning to sing, as a kid.
Aw, he's so beautiful! Watching that video again stops my heart all over again.
I had the pleasure of actually being at this concert in Houston! I was already a Journey fan, but this solidified it for me. I also became a huge Steve Smith fan, and now Smith is renowned as one of the greatest drummers on the planet!
Cool!
Steve’s singing is absolutely spot on!
For my money best male singer ever he is called the voice and this is why ,you should do their song Mother,Father the vocals on this song is second to none!! You are so good at breaking down songs and how good singers are you make it so simple to understand!!!!Happy Holidays to you and yours!
Thanks you too!
ONE of the best male singers. Freddie Mercury is also in the top best for me, along with Klaus Meine.
Hey, Fil! Got home from work/ last call at home bar, around 3 a.m. Played guitar for about 3 hours, now watching this at about 6 a.m. Journey is a guilty pleasure band for me. Your perspective on Steve Perry is soooo good. He is definitely under-rated. The guy had an amazing, gut-felt, tenor. You, too. Keep doing what you do, Fil, I'll keep watching! And, yeah, Steve and Neil were absolutely complimentary. Beautiful. Peace and love to y'all!
Journey my favorite band. I saw them live years ago they were great. Thank you Fil😊
Voice of steve was one of a kind, and no one replace him in way of singing he sings with heart and soul his emotion and you feel the love and contact to his fans ,thats why millions of fans loves him until now
As soon as I saw you were analyzing Journey, I said to myself "Oh this is right up Fil's alley." Haha, I was right. I love Steve's voice. I was a teen in '81, and I loved all kinds of music, from Led Zeppelin to Devo. Journey was so special because Steve's voice is once in a lifetime, he's something special.
Another great video Fil. I have always loved Journey and i aleays enjoy your shows and the history lessons on all the singers. Thank you so much.
I've heard so many musicians trash Perry, and I always thought it was stupidity or sour grapes.
He straight brought it.
Jealousy
These jealous naysayers don't have a quarter of the talent Steve has.
I discovered you by accident and I am so glad I did. I'm sixty-four years old, grew up with the music you break down, and I'm so impressed with your teaching ability. I love listening to you and I'm trying to catch up with all your videos. I've always considered Steve Perry to be the male equivalent of Streisand. He has the nose, the sinus cavities, to do what he does and knows how to use them. Keep doing what you're doing.
👍
That keyboard. That lead guitar. That hair. That shirt. That VOICE!!!!!!!! I can’t love it enough!
Thank you, Fil! Journey is one of the best bands and nobody comes close to Steve’s voice.
OH YEAH!!! The Band of the 80's!! Steve "The Voice" Perry... Journey is my 3rd favorite Band of all time (after Creedance Clearwater Revival and Pink Floyd)... great analysis as always Professor Fil.... "Don't Stop Believin'"
This is such a great performance of this song. Steve was amazing. One thing I always notice about Steve performing live is that he may move around the stage and interact with the crowd, but - when he gets to a part of the song that is a stretch or that he wants to emphasize, he stops moving and gets himself in almost perfect posture so that he can breathe as he wishes and needs to in order to achieve the desires effect. Just a great rock n roll singer.
Love Journey. Always have and always will. Glad Steve is producing music again. And I am a sucker for a man with long hair! *swoon* lol!!
Bro, I was at The Escape Tour, LA Forum, excellent lodge seats. I tell you what? Steven Perry was jaw dropping incredible, even Neil gave a we aren't worthy bow, incredible, man!
Thanks for this video, Fil!! This is one of my all time favorite bands and singer!! I truly enjoy everything you talk about in your videos! I learn something from every one of your videos I watch. That’s why your following is growing so much so fast! Enjoy the holidays'
What a voice what a band! A masterpiece of musical art like no other! Steve Perry has a voice that others could only dream of having along with Neil schons exceptional guitar playing I always believed that it was like having a second voice on stage! Cheers Mario! 😀🤘👌
'Mother, Father' IMO the best performance from this Houston concert. Yep, Steve is definitely on the Mt Rushmore of rock vocalists. Terrific analysis Fil.
Ahhh Steve Perry was blessed with a God given voice. 👏👏😍😍😍
Steve Perry is on my list of greatest male rock singers -- right up there with Freddie Mercury and Klaus Meine (of Scorpions). Great reaction, as always!
I have always loved Journey and of course Steve Perry.
I can still hear him singing live! I can feel Steve Smith’s drums beating within my body, Valory’s bass thumping, Cain’s flawless notes and Neal Schon shredding . .
I was so very lucky to see this show in Columbia, South Carolina. Bryan Adams opened for them. He was great as well! Then came the Frontiers Tour . . . Ahhhhh! Same venue, same great everything! And finally, the Raised on Radio tour. Seeing Randy Jackson on bass was odd because it was Valory’s spot for years but still very cool to see him years later “Dawg” on Idol.
Three of the best rock Tours that I have ever experienced in my life . . . hands down! 👍🏼👍🏼
*I had to edit because I had a brain fart! Loverboy opened for them on the ‘81 Escape Tour and Bryan Adams was ‘83 The Frontiers Tour! I knew I had seen Loverboy!
I was actually at this concert! LOL
In Wisconsin?
@@oldchick Houston
Me too! The Summit was a great venue.
@@bryanmyers1435 I saw many concerts there! Lol
@@annadoo3151 me too. There and the old Sam Houston Colosseum.✌
So great! I remember moving to San Fransisco from New Jersey in 1979 and being taken to a journey concert a few months before Steve Perry became the lead singer. I had no idea who Journey was and my new northern Cali friends had no idea who Bruce Springsteen was. In the next few years all would be revealed as both rock identities became rock legends. A jersey shore girl at heart which makes one a Bruce fan by state association I admit that Steve Perry’s voice and Journey has a pull and talent that takes them one notch above ... sorry Asbury Park but honestly Steve’s voice is hard to beat, and I love that both Journey and Bruce Springsteen and the East Street Band both sing about growing up in their respective cities. Thanks Wings Of Pegasus for another great analysis!
I love this channel! I come here to get an analysis and get a true appreciation of the art and an education to top it off! Subbed!
Thanks!
Loved Steve so much. His voice just soars! I wish he was still putting out music.
Michele Shelley he put a great new album in 2018 Traces and has new XMas song out
Hello, Fil! Have a blessed Christmas and we all look forward to the New Year with more Fil!
One of my favorite bands and Steve has a great voice! We were lucky to see them in concert in St. Louis in the early 80’s! Fil you are the greatest analyst of bands ever! I love your descriptions!
Steve was my first vocal crush at age 9 in 1981. Still love this lineup and Gregg Rolie era.
Another great analysis, Fil!! Love Journey and still put them on and rock around the house! What great music! 🎸
Steve Perry's voice is phenomenal. Journey not a band I listened to, I never cared for their material much, but the musicians and especially Perry were/are exceptionally talented. Following viewing your analysis, Fil, I am looking back at more of their live performance videos to see what I missed!
His talent and voice will appear once in a lifetime ONLY.
fil, i just love your channel. thanks for all you do and thanks for keeping it going for all these years.
Saw these guys with Steve Perry back in 1986. Great show!
Steve and Neal made magic together - The Voice and Magic Fingers
His voice sang to Neals guitar 🎸
Fantastic guitarist Neal Schon
...The most recognized song of all time perhaps....American...a dude in Nashville could sing this song nearly identical, and he was the most sought after of karaoke singers.....I simply don't know how a male can hit those high notes.......Somebody who can sing this would probably win "The Voice" contests EVERY TIME...
...Detroit is squarely in Michigan.....South Detroit would be even MORE in America....Canada is no where near....
@@LonskiBig Look at the map. Yes Detroit is definitely in Michigan but directly south is Windsor. If you go directly South from Detroit you are in Canada. So unlike what you say Canada is very close. Sarah Palin said she could see Russia from her window and a lot of people called her out for that. But from lots of places in Detroit you really can see Canada from your window.
@@LonskiBig check out a map
ozzie444 Sara Palin didn’t say that at all. It was a SNL spoof, and yes you can see Russia from Alaska look at a map.
@@ntsucobra Fair enough, just something I remembered for way back, and that could be 100% incorrect. The media hated her anyway and jumped on anything to dis her. Can't have a hot VP can you? No doubt you might see Russia from Alaska. At their closest point, Alaska and Russia are separated by only 55 miles, so yeah on a clear day it's can be seen. But my point still stands. Canada is only about 3 or 4 miles from Detroit. From the majority of area of the city of Detroit if you go due south you're in Canada.
I had the privilege of being at the first concert Steve Perry was debuting with Journey. If I was stranded on a deserted island and could have one vocalist to listen to he would be my choice hands down...
Hi Fil. Great to watch your analysis of Steve Perry's voice, which I love so much I also bought his solo albums. His vocals have an emotiveness not present in all singers.
Take care.
One of the very best rock voices of all time. Love this live performance! Even though both Steve and Neal are singing/playing what’s familiar, they had some nice embellishments, note changes here and there, which makes it so fun and interesting to listen to! ❤️
Beside music, I have a background with PT and Anatomy. So taking my years of voice I always questioned the positions to take while singing. The mouth and going inside I agreed. But as years passed I thought it needs to be progressive and Steve Perry is one that proved my point. Such a beautiful, relaxed and clear voice. He took his own body position for his inside make. Always tilting his head to the right while slightly raising his shoulder too. People have different body makeups so as to their singing it might be different too. Love ❤️ Journey
It is so live, so laid back, and is so awesome. Couldn’t have said it better myself. 🤘🏻
So glad to finally be seeing Steve Perry! Also love Neal's guitar playing... I think he's way to often underappreciated.
Thank you for this awesome review. His newest release of Silver Bells has a jazz sound to it....even though he's 70 he's still amazing!
Ugh. You'd think Perry was in his 90s. Hell, even Barry Manilow rocks harder than that crap.
@@jamesrudd8705 I still love his music... He still sounds great,. He's just mellowed a bit. He may not be Nikki Sixx but at least his voice hasn't crapped out like David Lee Roth's!!!
@@juliemosher6404
Mellowed a bit? His new music should come with a warning that it may induce a fucking coma.
Mellowed a bit? Hell, even Liberace rocked harder than this new shit Perry has put out.
Julie Mosher Silver Bells is already in the top 20, great version by Steve Perry and he hits that beautiful high note at the end.
@@deepbluesea8163 yes. I have all of his music from Journey right through Silver Bells. And I'm watching the charts. It's been raising weekly!
This just keeps getting better each day
***Infinity *** Evolution***
***Departure ***
Three of the Best Rock Albums Ever!
Bad Ass Band!
I was at that Concert in Houston And The Frontiers Concert!!
Thank You For Sparking The Memories!!
What a vocal, and asong, really good analysis as usual Mr. Fil :)
When your voice is really high to begin with, he aint using a "part" of his voice. It's pretty much all his normal singing voice. But sometimes yeah he'll do some diff tone like where he says "niiiiiiight" it sounds like he's just doing that thing (head voice?) but he has a really high voice so he's not straining on any of that. he's coasting. That's why he can sing concert after concert. There's some clips on YT of him b4 JOurney and he's just falsettoing to the moon. He had so much practice before even getting to the Journey era. He hits a C# in this with ease. Just a high range, great singing, little odd timbre and boom, you have a hit band (well, pretty much). Being kind of handsome didn't hurt, either. I think they are in E major so it's E, F#, G#, A, B, C# .
Fil... Merry Christmas !
And Steve Perry wasn't "kinda handsome," he was gorgeous!!!! I bought Journey albums starting at age 16, and had a HUGE crush on Steve!!!
Tammy F. Meh, Fil is much better looking.
@@giannafrancis5176 He IS!! Fil is adorbs so is Steve but in a different manner! I could be Fil's mom so I say this in a motherly fashion, of course.
The first time I saw them in 1983 I came home and told my friends they sounded just like the record. God knows this was the epitome of the music age! Check out Mother Father from this exact concert. Chills. Thank you for believing in yourself and your talents. We wingers believe in you!!!!!!
Thanks!
Understanding how difficult this song is makes your cover all the MORE impressive and I was already totally staggered by it. Loved seeing a live version with enough variation that it made my brain perk right up! Thanks!!
One of my favorite bands. It is amazing how much music - the bands, songs, singers really define our lives. How a song just takes you back to that time in your life and all of a sudden memories flood your mind. It is instantaneous. Music has the ability to interact with our brains.
''Open arms'' is my favorite Journey's song and his voice is fantastic :-)
Nice going Fil, enjoyed this Journey performance and your analyses, Jeff in LA USA
Saw them on this tour at Bryne Arena in East Rutherford, NJ in the summer of '82 on this tour. Great show!!!
this voice takes me back to a wonder land and a great time and place. timeless . thanks
Yeah, I have to admit I've been geeking out a little bit on Journey lately. Their live performance is - pardon the phrase - Fire!
Steve Perry is one of the best male vocalists ever end of story. Hugo Valentine and the Long Island journey tribute band Voyage is doing a great job paying homage to this band. Sounds and looks incredibly similar always has. A must-see
Normally inspired by Neal Schon's guitar playing (a handful of tunes I cop) one vocal performance I really love from Steve is Winds Of March. I believe its the second verse where he ends with the "....wind rushed thru the trees...." line. No breath !!! amazing.
Oh, Neal screams on this, too.
Steve Perry was/is Journey. I'm glad he is singing again. The voice is the same after all these years
Jerry Streeter yes, he sounds amazing. He’s aged gracefully and his new material is great.
Those B4s are fire! This song is so difficult to sing, it's constantly in the upper fourth octave
Great video.Journey is one of those bands critics put down ( stupidly). The truth is the band was tight, Steve Perry was amazing, and Neal schonn is a world class guitarist. Those who can’t play, become critics
You have got to be the best vocal analysis youtuber I’ve ever heard!! Rock on!!I
know it’s country, but please please please analyze Garth Brooks “The Dance”. Such a genuine guy, pure voice and unbelievable ability to connect with people!!!
Also A couple more requests (hope I’m not pushing my luck lol); Def Leppard Love Bites, Steve Perry Oh Sherie, Journey Faithfully, Styx Man in the Wilderness and Boat on the River, SRV and Double Trouble Texas Flood and Tin Pan Alley, John Cafferty and The Beaver Brown Band, Steelheart I’ll Never Let You Go, lastly a girl singing a Russian folk song, River- Diana Ankudinova (possible misspelle)
You’re awesome, I’m learning a lot from your analysis, so thanks for what you do!🎸🎼🎹💿🎤🎧🕺🙌🏻🤩. Much love coming from Music City, Nashville Tennessee
My understanding is that Steve said "Mother Father" was the most challenging song for him.
I love that song ❤️
No, he didn't say that. His lunatic fan base made that up.
@@jamesrudd8705 Interesting...that's why I prefaced my statement with "my understanding". That reminds of the "who said who was the greatest guitarist" claims that floated around the internet for years.
I remember back in the early 1980s when Journey was touring in the USA and the day that their tickets became available for the Phoenix, AZ concert, the tickets sold out so fast that they added an additional concert date for Phoenix. Those tickets also sold out quickly, so they added a third show. I think the third show sold out within a couple days. They were that popular. And these sellouts happened way before the Internet existed :)
So glad you finally mentioned Valory and Smith towards the end of your excellent assessment. The drum lick line that Smith plays throughout is a great example of how a drummer can play notes to compliment the melody of the song. Smith asked himself "how do I make the song better" while Perry Schon and Cain did their own thing.
Thanks Fil, so great to hear a great analysis of a great performance of a great song by a great band and now we're rockin' on into a great New Year! Like 737. /:-)
🙂👍🏻 Well done, Fil. Thanks for all the research, technical knowlwdge and hard work you put in to your channel and each upload. 🌟🎶
Journeys greatest hits, great make out music👍
I tell everyone I saw Journey in 82 when I was 14 years old. To this day, Steve Perry is my all time favorite singer. I would rank him 1, Elvis 2, Freddie Mercury 3 and george michael 4. I love the guys with powerful voices that can stand without the music.
