Definetely this guy was born to be a singer. No need for fancy clothes or a moving stage. His voice mesmerizes the public.
I actually spoke to Steve Perry on the phone in September of 2023. It was the most surreal moment of my life!!!!
@@veryeasilydistracted4966 was he ordering pizza? 🍕
Talent like this just doesn’t exist anymore. Standing there singing, no pyro or tricks, just pure voice.
they still exist but they are now rare. most singers nowadays are using auto tune and that's exactly the reason why I don't bother listening to them.

It's not talent but hard work.
@@25756881 I think both, a very high talent as well as a very hard work.
Pure talent!! Nothing but guys, instruments and stories to tell!.. No auto tune,no light show, no back up dancers just raw talent.. What more could you ask for… More please…
We call this in Germany handmade music...not like today.
To each his own, just because it isn’t good to you doesn’t mean it lacks value. That’s the beauty of life is it’s mostly subjective.
@@jacobm1648 Modern music is objectively shitty. It's not subjective, it's a symptom of Rome burning.
This man can sing to me all day long. His voice just penetrates you to the soul. He is one the greatest singers of all time and Journey isn't Journey without Steve.
Truth
He had a thing what we used to call back
in the day as "selling the music". It comes from his soul.
I am a girl, i will always be in love with man, does'nt matter his age. ❤
Pienso exactamente lo mismo!!!!! Es único!!!!
So true
Steve is 72 now, after the love of his life passed he finally found love again! Still has incredible voice ! NO PERFORMER CAN EVER TOP THIS ANGELS VOCAL RANGE! IM 60 I GREW UP WITH HIS MUSIC,! HES A GODSEND AND A LEGEND!!!
WOW 72....I never new that. And ur rite, what a godsend and never be forgotten at least by our generation. God Bless.
Nació el 22 de enero de 1949 yo el 26 enero🤗🤗🤗🤩
Definitely a Godsend and Legend❤️
@@annabuat2007 yes❤️
C'est vrai ! 😃👌👍👏
To the younger generation, don't let Journey 's Music die 😥
we got you older brother
Despite the crap music we are exposed to, there's still hope and I'm more than proud to be part of keeping this alive to my future children
Never, Never 👍👍👍🎸👌🇵🇹
I so hope this music lives on forever. Thank you so much to those here who posted to help this carry on......my greatest wish before i go. This and many more greats from then.
born in 04, raised with 70s music
My husband and I were married on August 2, 2003, and we danced to this song at our wedding reception.
Congratullations for boths
Steve Perry's voice truly is unmatched. Very pure and clear. Live and recording are the same; no edits required.
I will say it again: Journey is not Journey without Steve Perry. He had (and still has) the most beautiful voice.
Amen
I totally agree with you to the highest we can wish for a reunion I have a very strong feeling that will never happen
Agree 💯
Of course!! Steve is Journey, period!!!!
Agree
This is his best live performance. Flawless pitch, held all the high notes, just majestic. And he’s such a good guy in general. Steve Perry is a national treasure
Steve Perry is the real reason why the Band known as Journey became as famous as they were back in the day .
True. Before him, Journey was a fairly decent band of California hippies playing music, but they didn't really have real brand or a unique sound. Steve's voice catapulted them to heights they probably had never dreamed of. Someone found an old audio recording of the first time he sang for them. I think it was some beach festival. 🤔 Anyway, the crowd went nuts.
I like Arnel Piñeda, I've got nothing against him, but when they got rid of Steve and replaced him with Arnel, who was a Journey tribute band singer -- sadly, they became their own tribute band. I don't even know if they wrote new music or not. All I ever heard them do is rehash songs that Steve made hits. 🤷🏻♀️
When Steve was no longer there, I stopped paying attention. Voice of an angel.
You said it brother and sister!! There is no journey like Steve Perry!! Never gonna be another. Arnel is okay but he ain't Steve. Period. Arnel is okay but he didn't make journey what is was back then. He could record new material but they haven't unless you count the movie with after all these years.... good movie and song but where are the other new songs. Non existent. So journey feeds off the songs of the past that Steve Perry sang. They are good songs. Love the but I desire for lots of new stuff.
I agree with all of you. I'd like to add that they feed off of a lot of songs that Steve wrote or co-wrote as well. Steve Perry did indeed take Journey to their height of fame. They are who they are today because of him,
and they owe their success to him. Having said that, I want to say that Arnel Pineda is and always has been, one of Steve's biggest fans, and I am truly happy for his rags to riches story. Still, Journey is only Journey to me with Steve "The Voice" Perry! There are none who can match his voice and superb vocal talent. He is a rare form of counter tenor. A tenor-altino. At least in his younger years. Steve is now 75 years old. None of us at that age are the same as we were in our younger years , but he still sounds great to me.❤ Love me some Steve Perry!
I also want to add that Steve is the richest out of ALL of the band members. They made a sweet deal for him. And he will get those handsome checks until the day he dies. Good for you, Steve! You deserve it! ❤😊
Que verdaderas tus palabras, Steve Perry merece mucho reconocimiento! fue y es un cantante de una voz exepcional! Todo mi amor para él ! @@sandrasillery4493
Nobody can sing like this....what a phenomenal gift❤
La mejor música de todos los tiempos

Arnel Pineda
Presente de Deus! 🙏🏽👏👏👏👏
@juancarlosvargas7064 👏👏👏👏
He has such a unique voice. Truely one of the greatest vocalists of all time
Agree
👍👍👍
Yes..I agree...wow..such talent..such a gift...love it
Amazingly special voice!
He has perfect tone. Never sings flat. Beautiful voice beautiful person. Never gets tired hearing his warm soothing voice.
I went to so many Journey concerts, and the reason I went was to hear Steve Perry’s beautiful voice. He had such a stage presence, it’s as if he was singing directly to each one of us. If I could meet one person, it would be him. He lived through so much adversity and continued to perform even though his heart was breaking. That takes one hell of a performer and beautiful heart to think of his fans. I was 16 the first time I saw him in concert and I am 54 now and I still adore him. I see pictures of him and hear him sing, and his eyes are like windows to his soul. His voice will always be able to touch the deepest recesses of my heart and soul. Thank you @steveperry for your amazing gift of song 🎶 and your ability to make even my darkest day so much brighter. 💖
I 44 and love journey, I have HATEBREED tattooed on me 😆
Sinto exatamente tudo q traduz.. Parabéns por definir... PRAIA DE CAPONGA-CE 🇧🇷
Lovely comment, and yes, his voice is amazing. The current singer, Pineda, no comment.
You’re so lucky to have had the chance to see him live!!!! 😭❤️
What an amazing comment. We lived through some great musical years didn’t we?
Ladies and gentlemen….the definitive example of pure talent. Never repeated.
People will watch this video and hear this music hundreds and thousands of years from now…and be absolutely AMAZED.
This isn’t just music 🎶, this is HISTORY ! ❤️
Exactly ❤
The history of out lives
Jeans, T-Shirts, sneakers, instruments that the band actually play and an incredible voice. There's no comparison. I'll take this era over todays "music" any day.
Thank you and same for me also!
Spoken like a person who hasn't left their house in 20 years!
Me too.
👍
Theres maturity in accepting other kinds of music. It has value to someone so you can’t discount as lesser. It’s all subjective.
Hardly to find such voice on mainstream chart today. This man is insanely brilliant.
I'M 57 yrs.old ... I've always loved Journey and Steve Perry, I love his voice. He sings the best love songs. Open Arms one of best love songs ever.❤
His voice transcends all others. Absolute perfection. Love this man.
Love his voice with so much feeling and emotions
Karen Carpenter fans know that his voice does not "transcend" her mellifluous singing pipes!
@@MyOneFiftiethOfADollar Excuse me?! The power alone in Steve Perry's voice puts Karen's to silence. Please do not be petty and throw out a pretty voice up against Steve when he is so much more in every way. Pretty voices are a dime a dozen. As well as being a composer, Steve's voice is a once in a lifetime many faceted miracle of beauty, power, depth, range, emotion, strength, control, vibrancy, variety, etc, etc, etc. As to Karen, she did not even want to be a singer and called herself a drummer, which was her passion. Steve was well known and accepted as one or the top rock and roll/pop singer of all time.
@@mvies77 I excuse you for your excessive and overt hero worship.
I encourage you to pursue pastimes and hobbies that will allow you to focus on your own accomplishments rather than living vicariously through the achievements of others.
"Steve's voice is a once in a lifetime" Karen's voice is once in a millennia.
The drummer BS you found during 1 minute Google search does not negate her mellifluous voice. Your specious "reasoning" that a drummer cannot become an epochal singer as Karen did, needs to be corrected.
Arnold Pineda can match “your Steve” note for note.
@@MyOneFiftiethOfADollar Here we go. But you can waste your time and words and feel superior which makes you stupid for haranguing on me . And as far as your little boy imitator, he barely has the strength to hit a note of the great songs Perry made famous. I actually laughed when checking him out in his imitation. He sounds weak and empty. But you keep your little guy. Perry will always reign and is considered still by everyone to be one of if not the greatest rock and roll/pop singer ever. Why do you think Journey was so desperate to find an imitator. Go away now.
I don’t know of another man who sings with such passion, angelic feeling, or flawless production. Steve is a legend.
LIKEWISE! I'M SO PROUD JOURNEY WAS A PART OF MY GENERATION! I'm 50, by the way. In my opinion, their new singer, Arnel Pineda, JUST DOESN'T HAVE IT.
@@AngelofAnguish Not his fault, how does anyone compare to Steve Perry? 🤷🏼♀️
Right
amen!!
I'm totally agree!!
No Auto tune just straight pure talent. ❤

私はね。亡くなった主人が聴いていたこの音楽の頃に、戻りたいですよ。五年経った今でも忘れられなく、寂しいですよ。帰ってこないのですから。どんなに待っても。でもこの曲を聴くだけで、あの頃に帰れるというか。あまりにも突然、亡くなりましたから。
Don’t think there are many singers who sound this good live. It’s sounds like it was sung in a studio. Love the tone very distinctive.
He ´s incredible. A true singer. Counter-tenor may be? That sound and tune is UNIQUE.
I saw him in the Raised in Radio tour, his last with Journey. Such an awesome performer. His voice is truly amazing!!
I would have to say Freddie Mercury’s is better Steve’s voice is fabulous too. Both legends in their own time
They created Autotune so other singers didn't feel so bad about their voices...
@@mariaclaudiamejia2650 - From a fan site:
Steve Perry has the range of a high tenor and solid alto and is considered a countertenor. He is a rare tenor altino, a rare form of countertenor..."
I get chills hearing Steve Perry sing. Open Arms and Faithfully make me teary-eyed!
Endlich mal ein Mann, der ehrlich mit sich selbst sein kann. Find ich gut 👍
Me too!!!
It's gaining Indulgences for our devotions ok thx ok
I can't really describe exactly what he has, it sounds so stunning. I have never heard an example ever that can match this. Steve was one of the rare male singers who's voice didn't really deepen. Of course girls have this range, but it's just not as powerful then. Some guys can do it but it's just not as good lol.
They were a special band
It’s such a privilege to be a part of this musical era while it was happening.
That voice is criminally underrated
Sweet Jesus
TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU JOURNEY ISN'T JOURNEY WITHOUT STEVE PERRY
Wow this is one if not the most powerful voices in history
Agree
Agree and very unique. I know who it is every time I hear him
Wow...
I remember October 9 1986 Joe Louis Arena concert. Man what a great time we had listening to this man sing! Will never forget it!
@@charlie201030 I am so jealous...we live on the reservation and I never got to see a,concert but in 86 I was a sophomore in college
I dont go mad about people ....but when i see talent like this in such profundity !!! I go totally quiet ...and take it in .....God blessed him with talent that is so rare ..
Perfection,vocally, and everything else,NO ONE will EVER compare!
Hello, how are you doing? It is nice seeing you here.
Power, control, tone, perfect pitch, That was one hell of a singer,,,,
Steve Perry is the best .
He still is in 2020
@@jacquevaughn8315 No, no he isn't , it doesn't mean that he cannot sing anymore but I heard his last album and a lot of power is simply gone which is only natural given his age and his vocal style requiring a lot of power. There's no way he could song like in this video at the moment, he should lower the key and the dynamic of the song would be lost, Tone is still great, so his the pitch, control can only be gauge when the song is really demanding.
He still is at 70.
@@fabriziocamisani5477 he’s still the best singer I’ve ever heard
It's not just the pipes. It's his interpretation of the song. Brilliant.
Oh yeah I hear u sister. Amazing song.
@Dr. Perl Junior I don't want to get into a vocal technique debate but they are not airy. It's easy to hear his vocal folds are making a good seal. No air escaping. This is from strong arytenoid muscles. He is singing in a connected head voice. It's open and relaxed, well supported and resonant. And yes, these skills can be developed with a lot of hard work and an excellent teacher who knows what he or she is doing. Many a person's voice has been ruined due to poor teachers.
He feels what he’s singing. It’s beautiful.
@@Gemmarose9012 Steve ist das absolute Gesamtpaket
@@denislanza6228 this was not taught by any vocal teacher. Perry was just built this way. Natural
Steve put his soul into every song he sang they will never replace him
Wauw!!! Amazing Voice!!!! I am 1983 born. Need to listen again and again🎉🌅
My God, Steve Perry has such a BEAUTIFUL voice. His range is superb! Can't believe this was a concert from 36 years ago!!
IKR
He was the BEST of the BEST ...He Kicked ASS!
Best Male vocalist all time !
I was at this concert! Journey always put on one heck of a concert!
There's never been any other vocalist alive that could bring tears to my eyes and still make me weak in my knees like this man. It's a strange feeling, I feel as though I know him. I was 20 years old the first time I heard him sing and let's just say that it's "decades" later, and I still listen to him sing every day. I literally grew up listening to Journey until Steve left that is and I'm here to tell you, Hollywood couldn't pay me to listen to Journey now. As far as I'm concerned, Journey was no more, once they lost Steve. If you can't tell the difference between Steve Perrys voice and whoever they put in front of the microphone, you're not now and never really were a Steve Perry die hard fan. Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to marry the guy, I met my soulmate at 17, married him and unfortunately I lost him, in fact in December, same as Steve lost Kelly. In any case, after all these years, I'd love to meet him, I won't lie about it or apologize for it either!!!! Stevie, please just keep on singing!!!!
Steve Perry wasn't singing here. He was creating an experience. It's one thing to possess a wide vocal range and another to utilize that and sing like this. Beyond impressive.
Anyone listening August 2024?
Edward,from Santa Cruz de la Sierra(Bolivia)
Hell yeah!
Yep
THAT IS WHY HE KNOWN AS SIMPLY THE VOICE!!!!! l have went to several Journey concerts and met him backstage.
Unbelievable, emotional …soaring notes.. the finest singer I’ve ever heard in my lifetime. Beautiful.
😍😍
I am ever so grateful to have grown up in the greatest time in American culture. We had the best music, talent, culture, fashion, and cinema (Except for Reagan. I guess you can't have it all). Long live the 1980's!
No auto-tune children! Listen carefully.....IN CONCERT....no auto-tune!!!! LEGEND!!!!💟💟💟
Teja Deja and almost no background singing or harmonies, just him and it’s just spectacular
amen
Teja Deja say it again! That voice is matchless
Rosalinda Young 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Yesss Ma’am! His voice is an absolutely underrated National treasure 💎💎💎...and as smooth and delicious as New York cheese cake 🍰...🎼
Chlorine Lori Right?!? I love how all the band harmonized and flowed together; but Steve Perry’s voice made Journey. So wondermous! 🥰🥰🥰 They never recaptured the magic after he left
no matter the laundry list of guys they’ve brought in to replace him...sorry Arnel...nope...I can’t listen to it, not because he’s bad, but because he can’t compare and it makes me sad. He struggles just to attempt to do what Steve made look effortless. His energy doesn’t seem rock and roll it seems manic. I look at Neal and Johnathan and I think; guys, come on. Even Arnel’s getting gray. It’s time to let that 💩💩💩 go! ☹️😢☹️
My baby! Sing it Steve for the new followers! People THIS is real music!! From the gut and heart!!❤❤❤
Hello, how are you doing? It is nice seeing you here.
I've just become a journey fan because of this song, it really hits hard when you have a friend who's far Away but is always open arms and our friendship love will never die I hope to meet him someday with open arms
Steve Perry is said to have a voice that can hit every note exactly. They say you can tune instruments by his voice. Very cool...and he still gives me goosebumps when he sings. 💖
I have not heard that before, I wish that he would let out a gutteral scream, something like in Queen.
@@joanlynch5271 he makes his fans let out guttrral screams.
@@slamecatzwell5544 my girlfriend can scream real loud.
@@joanlynch5271 well I don’t want him be Freddie they r diff. His voice does a lot more then Freddie live not that Freddie not good but he wasn’t best live
If Jesus, The Christ, wanted to sing, he would use Steve Perry's voice to do it, because he invented it. He created it to be indelible, and imbued it with a perfect phenomenologically charismatically incontrovertible sound.
His voice has no comparison. Like liquid gold…
Hello Sheila, I'm glad you're a fan. how are you doing today? It's my pleasure meeting you here. Is this your favorite track?
Steve Perry has one of the greatest voices of all times and Journey one of the best bands ever.
The voice, the band...all of them put everything in it "for the band and their fans"
Perry made this band a super group and is one of the icons of rock history.
One of the greatest ballads of the 80s!
The best
*all time
Exactly. A Zebra can't change its stripes. Steve Perry was the Heart that made the soul of Journey. Absolutely irreplaceable...
That entire band is talented. What a set of lungs he has. That was very powerful and he sings with so much passion. I love the song. 💓💓💓
We don’t search for old songs…
we search for old memories.

amen
Well said!
What a profound observation. I'd never thought about it before, but you're absolutely right.
When their manager hired Steve Perry, the other band members did not want him. They wanted a screaming rocker and they thought Steve was a crooner. He won them over and the rest is history. His vocal prowess is unmatched!
His voice is heavenly
They lost after Steve left.
@@alhambra119 100% TRUTH!!! BEST VOCALIST OF ALL TIME, HANDS DOWN!!! NO ONE ELSE IS WORTHY OF AN ARGUMENT ABOUT IT... AMAZING!!!
I agree. What a voice.
didn't know that.thanks
Nothing even remotely close anymore. One of best bands all time from the greatest era. That’s why they still play these songs everywhere. Thank you Steve, Neal, and the rest of Journey.autotune? Are you kidding me? No need.
One of the biggest reasons the 80s were absolutely awsome.
God, people in the 80's are the luckiest people, they lived through good music with Queen, Journey, Bon Jovi, etc.
No cellphones, no auto-tune, no covid, just people enjoying the pure talent and skills of musicians.
We sure we're lucky. Greatest music decade ever
💯
Michael Jackson too !
And - THEY ALL STARTED IN -- THE 60’s & 70’s!!!
It was the best of times! I wish everyone knew what it was like!
He sings from every cell of his soul and that is what makes him amazing

My sister was at this concert and I was the most jealous 16 yr old alive. Never saw Journey live and according to my sister,Steve sounded just the same live as he did on recordings. The most amazing voice ever
How come you didn't tag along with her?
I was at the concert in Philadelphia, PA on the same tour. HE IS INCREDIBLE IN PERSON!! I'm sorry you didn't get to go. Nothing will ever top Journey w/ Steve Perry. When Steve started singing again, I was praying to every music god I could think of that he would get with Journey again. COULD YOU IMAGINE THAT??? THAT WOULD BE THE BIGGEST BAND REUNION EVER!!!!
You got one lucky sister
Lying beside you, here in the dark
Feeling your heartbeat with mine
Softly you whisper, you're so sincere
How could our love be so blind
We sailed on together
We drifted apart
And here you are, by my side
So now I come to you with open arms
Nothing to hide, believe what I say
So here I am, with open arms
Hoping you'll see what your love means to me
Open arms
Living without you, living alone
This empty house seems so cold
Wanting to hold you
Wanting you near
How much I wanted you home
Now that you've come back
Turned night into day
I need you to stay
So now I come to you with open arms
Nothing to hide, believe what I say
So here I am, with open arms
Hoping you'll see what your love means to me
Open arms
Oh man after all these years you'd think that listening to the same person singing the same songs, over and over again, would get old and stale. Not by a long shot, in fact I don't listen to anyone else, in the house, into my car and on my phone and sometimes I think I must be losing my mind, but I'm Stoned in Love with You Steve. What else could it possibly be, after 30 years, I've never met him, seen him in concert and I just can't get enough of that voice. From then and now, he's like a damn drug and I am addicted. I've heard an awful lot of music and different musicians in my life and not one has affected me the way he has with the way he puts his whole heart and soul into every single thing he's ever done. There will never be anyone like this guy in the music business again.
The REAL DEAL!

This song is incredible....and so is Steve Perry. There is nobody more authentic than he is. Steve Perry's voice is as deep and smooth as he is. Just a beautiful man full of authenticity and emotion, who was bold enough to walk away to work on himself in recovery. He got so much shit for it, but don't ALL OF US TAKE SHIT IF WE CHOOSE TO BE AUTHENTIC.
Amen to that!! His voice touches the deepest recesses of my soul. There’s been a lot said about why he left the group when he did. I imagine the other members of the band weren’t happy about it, and the fans were likely upset, too. There may still be bad blood with the bad. I remember it like it was yesterday. I was so sad. Thinking about it now, though, I believe in my heart that it was absolutely the right thing for him to do. Stopping when he did saved his voice and likely saved his life. It was a gutsy, incredibly smart move to make. It amazes me that he had the foresight to do what he did, and I commend him for it. I’m glad he’s still around to grace us with that beautiful voice when he’s so moved to do so! ❤️
When I hear this I get the chills. I'm only 16, I have no words. I wish I was alive then to see these guys perform together. Favorite band ever
P Wee exactly how I feel (I'm 16 too)
It was amazing I saw them live in 1980's when I was only 17 went with my GF at the time had so much fun never forget that night.
And guess who else has also been born after Journey's concert in Houston? Me, Rebecca Leonard. I was born in the late 1990's!
Same i love this song so much
You’re a smart 16yr old!!

What your love means to me
Open arms
Living without you
Living alone
This empty house seems so cold
Wanting to hold you
Wanting you near
How much I wanted you home
But now that you've come back
Turned night into day
I need you to stay
So now I come to you
With open arms
Nothing to hide
Believe what I say
So here I am
With open arms
Hoping you'll see
What your love means to me
Open arms
By Journey
Thank you❤
Steve Perry still the best vocalist of all time, he is a legend
There are only 3 bands I like more than Journey: Styx, Queen, and foreigner. And I still can’t disagree w you that Steve perry is the best live vocalist of all time. Dennis deyoung’s voice was magical, probably best put on display in come sail away. Freddie’s voice was beautiful but was very different live from the recording. Lou gramm was just a flat out beast all around. But Steve, Steve sounded just like the recording whenever he sang. Truly remarkable
It is so sad that Journey junked like garbage, without Steve Perry they would not ever reach the top
If Jesus, The Christ, wanted to sing, he would use Steve Perry's voice to do it, because he invented it. He created it to be indelible, and imbued it with a perfect phenomenologically charismatically incontrovertible sound.
Elvis is also a legend. If not more a legend
Absolute truth
Such a gorgeous voice. Music from the 70’s & 80’s were the soundtrack of my growing up years. Real music, real singers, no auto tune-just gut busting talent.
What a voice! I swear he is one of the great voices of the century.
This is why they called him, “The Voice.”
We also called John Farnham the voice in Australia check him out singing the Beatles song "Help" live with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra. His vocals are crazy and he's an entertainer, the way he interacts with the crowd is awesome. John Farnham is an Aussie icon.
Isn't that Michael Bolton?
@@georgeibrahim7945 Bon Jovi named perry the voice not that Farnham isn’t good too it’s diff kinda voice. I’ve heard Farnham sing good just diff.
amber rodriguez Steve Perry is one of the best to and his vocals are very unique clear and crisp I love his voice to he’s one of my favourites.
amber rodriguez have you heard of Dimash? He can sing in 12 languages and has the most insane vocal range in the world. Listen to him sing “SOS” a French song and “Sinful Passion” he sings in Russian this dude is insane
Truly hope Steve Perry realizes how many people's hero he is. Wishing him a VERY HAPPY BIRTHDAY tomorrow on the 22nd of January 2022, turning 73. May he have such joy and happiness as he has given to all of us, his fans, throughout the years. Lots of best wishes and love, Steve Perry !!!!!
This song is one of my most favourites ❤
I'll say it again he is the ABSOLUTE best singer I have ever heard GOD BLESS HIM and his AMAZING VOICE.
Hello, how are you doing? It is nice seeing you here.
I am doing good and hello to my very favorite singer. God Blessed you with an amazing voice. My God is good.
@@louiselasiter648 I’m glad and feel honored to know I’m your favorite singer Louise, and it’s a pleasure to have you here. Well I know you must be surprised to receive a message from me right?
Yes I was but it was a very nice surprise I have been along time FAN of yours. I don't get these kinds of surprises very often.
@@louiselasiter648 Thanks for being a committed fan over the years Louise. Well I decided to reply you privately because I appreciate your love and support towards me and the band.
God this song still gives me chills! His voice, there will never be another Steve Perry!
You can feel the emotion in his voice. He is "the voice". This was Journey had heart and soul. Steve was the glue that kept the hits coming year after year. Their songs are timeless and they will always be the greatest band ever.
Hello, how are you doing? It is nice seeing you here.
Nobody is like him. Journey can be transformed, but Steve is unique
He is one of a kind ! Thank you for the greatest songs and the happy memories ! Steve and Journey was and is magical ❤
Always will be a great song. Steve Perry could really sing. I'm 61 and listened to it as a youngster.
Hello, how are you doing? It is nice seeing you here.
I get goosebumps every time I hear this song. Steve Perry's vocals cannot be matched. I feel so lucky to have gone through my teens in the 80s. That was the best decade ever.
Yessssss
@karma20241 You bet. I did too and it was a time that there IS NO WAY YOU CAN COMPARE TO NOW. We use to have so much fun!!!!
Totally agree and ten years too. ❤
THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME! Im only 25 & im so thankful my dad grew me up on music like this, journey became one of my favorite bands when I was a toddler 😂 he passed away a couple years ago & had this old journey - don't stop believing shirt that I inherited & it's one of my prized possessions! Steve can't be beat, his voice is simply perfect
What was going on in the early 1980s in the united states with the depth of phenomenal male lead vocalists? Steve Perry, jimi jamison, peter cetera, kevin cronin, brad delp......those voices were incredible
Who's here 2024 😢
❤

March 24th 2024. I've been on a two day Steve Perry binge and I can never get tired of hearing his voice and looking at him singing.
Me..❤
