Freddie Mercury was once asked, "What is it like to be the best singer in the world?" His response was "I don't know, ask Steve Perry!"
I'm fairly certain I'm one of the very few who sees what you did there. That said, Neil Schon wearing an MTV tee shirt is too cool.
Steve Perry is far and away better than Freddie Mercury!!! Steve's voice is iconic!!!
I read it was John Farnham is the singer he said.
Absolute truth.
If you are truly just listening to Journey for the first time, what a rabbit hole you have in front of you!
he's a joke .. first time hearing Journey .. yeah .. right !!
More like a nuclear silo, 300 feet down, lol. What silliness. Has he ever been to the mall, a supermarket, the Walmart !
Yea its hard (impossible) to believe this is an actual reaction video. Got to say tho, that Journey's first 3 albums are the best.
There is no way he just heard Journey. Come even my 10 year old knows who Journey is.
Ya got THAT right!! 🤣🤣
Steve Perry…THE VOICE!! Everything he sings is golden!!
Steve Perry is a legend!!! Journey is one of the best bands in the histiry of music! In my opinion
Great 70sband! Not 8s
😅
histiry???
Steve is my legend, can never get enough of him
I have a hard time believing that there are people alive who have never heard this song… maybe not this live version but this song has been used in many movies… the Sopranos for one…
@@kenperkins7921 You've got to be mental. Majority if not all of their hits were in the 80's. I know I was there.
This song was inducted into the Library of Congress. No auto-tune, backing track or lip syncing. Pure talent. I was front row on this tour. I'm still shook from the concert 😆
Pick any live version of their songs and be amazed at the talent of this man who sounds better live then the recording.
Journey with Steve singing .. sounded better in Concert than on their albums
It's... No words makes it justice.
@@Sportsref13 So true. The man had the perfect live concert voice. It was soft, smooth, rough when it needed to be, and always sound like perfection.
@@Sportsref13 100% agree. I've seen many concerts from the 70s/80s/90s legends and Journey/Perry was by far the best live performance.
I was there, too! I remember when Steve pointed out the microphones recording the show! Here we are, 40 yrs later, thankful we were lucky enough to have been there!
His peers called him the VOICE for a reason. No auto-toon back then. Amazing vocals
auto-tune
lol auto-toon.
My favorite male voice of the 70’s!
@@lauramacky4083 No it's not!
@@jonhohensee3258 You're telling me that's not my favorite? oh ok lol
This is called Talent ... it is real, not manufactured .. Not like today's music. He is call The Voice! And he is still around!
Why is he called "the Voice"?
Yep no auto tune no bullshit just talent 😊
@@msmith6634 No bullshit?? Wow.
Steve Perry's vocals are sheer perfection. He legit had perfect pitch. This is before auto tune even existed. I highly recommend you check out more of Journey's music catalogue. Especially Faithfully.
As someone who grew up listening to Journey, I must say it is very gratifying to see a young person today who "gets it". Steve Perry was one of the greatest rock singers of all time, if not THE greatest, but everyone in that band was excellent. The synergy they had was a combination for the ages. Glad you enjoyed it.
JOURNEY FAN FOR LIFE!!!
As a person that grew up with Journey BEFORE Perry most people dont get how good Journey was without him. Perry turn Journey into a teenybopper band and eventually broke up the band.
@@BlazinRiver1 Can't agree with you entirely here. While it is true, generally speaking, that the band turned more towards pop when Perry came aboard, I certainly wouldn't call most of what they did "pop". Arena rock, or heartland rock, or melodic rock, sure. They even messed around with rhythm and blues and prog rock on a few tunes. But teeny bopper? Definitely not.
Dude, do yourself a favor and pull up their Infinity album on whatever platform you get your tunes. Get your earbuds, settle in and listen to the whole thing straight through. They've got other hits you'll be able to react to later on and that's great. But that album is an experience. You're welcome.
Please watch the movie monster.... This song made it and one of the most beautiful woman in the world (Charlize Theron) plays the first seriall killer, and the voice of Steve Perry is perfect 🙏😇🥰
This is real live music. No auto tune - but, super talented, trained musicians and vocalists. You don’t see much that anymore.
Have to look to Japan - JRock and Jmetal to find it these days.
Japan? No. Look closer. Beth Hart, Joe Bonamassa, Rival Sons and a few others
no auto tune? Look up pitch correction...our band used it in the late 70s. Some of us remember Journey when they were a hard rock fusion band. Back before they turned into a top 40 teeny bopper band.

Tell it, brother!
Music from the 70’s and 80’s were the best!!! Journey was the best of them. Steve Perry’s voice will NEVER be matched!!
Don't call Steve Perry THE VOICE for nothing!! So much emotion in his singing. ♥️
This is the music I grew up with in the 70's. Journey, Queen, Led Zep, Eagles. Couldn't get any better. *REAL* music *REAL* musicians
To see people just discovering this magic today hurts and fills me with joy. Hurts because generations missed out on it, but fills me with joy because it is still here making an impact. There is sooo much more Steve Perry/Journey to discover, you can't find a bad one.
I don't like queen, but I love Journey, Bon Jovi, and The Eagles
Chicago
Moody Blues
I graduated in 1980. I never loved Queen, although I think Freddie Mercury had an incredible voice. My all-time favorite is Journey with Steve Perry, but I also love AC/DC, Bob Seger, Van Halen with David Lee Roth, Pat Benatar, Foreigner and so many more. They just don't sound the same anymore.
Joan Jett, Heart, Kiss.
Can't forget Rush. Rush is the greatest.
Steve Perry - one of the greatest vocalists of all time. Unique! Not many could put on such a perfect performance live on stage! Great song, great performer. His replacement Arnel Pineda is pretty dang good too. Cheers Michael.
Try John Farnham 🎉
Nobody touches Steve Perry. Nobody. Except MAYBE Freddie Mercury is his prime.
He was nicknamed The Voice by Bon Jovi.

First time I heard this song I was pulling into a motorcycle shop on my Suzuki triple to buy a rainsuit. Raining HARD, soaked to the skin, I sloshed in the door and asked the guy at the counter if he had a rainsuit in a size small. I was single, sad, lonely and raising two kids by myself. We talked, I bought the rainsuit, and he called the next day (got my phone number off the check -- glad it didn't bounce!).
We've been married 40 years, and neither of us has ever stopped believin'... the best magic is real, and it's in someone's arms!
Beautiful story !! Thanks for sharing it with us!
Love this story
It's incredible for those of us who were around back in this time seeing Journey on a regular basis to see young people who've never even heard of them marvel at their talent!
Steve Perry’s voice is iconic- no one like him.. one of the best- this song is one of my favorites- you are correct- music today is not made like this anymore- this was pure raw talent-
You don't get music like this anymore because they stpped worrying about talent and started worrying about your look with auto tune they can make anyone sound good enough as long as you look the part that one song video killed the radio star and its true before the 80s it was all about talent now it's all about how you look on video but even though they can make you sound good enough but you can't reproduce the sound live
I think it is because most songs come from song writers that shop around for a singer and whatever music they have for the song was just reworked samples from other artists. These guys wrote their songs in their garage as they played.....I miss the old days of the 80's big hair bands....lol
John Farnham especially live performances . Can sing any genre . From down under
Well. Arnel Pineda is like him. :)
@@t0dd000 No he is NOT
I don't think Perry ever really messed up at a performance and typically he sounded even better live than on recordings.
Professionalism
Steve Perry had one of the very best rock voices ever.
Agree!!
He was known in the industry as "the Voice." Phenomenal.
Love seeing folks first reaction to this performance. No auto-tune, no lip sync. Stellar performance!!
The 70s & 80s music was the best . The music now just doesn't compare. I am so glad I was born in the late 60s and was able to see it as it happened . God bless!
Yes it was
The 70's totally rule!
I'll 2nd that. Best two decades ever for musical talent bar none.
me to ¡¡¡¡¡ born 65
@@marcogennaro4303 67 here
This was LIVE, with the instruments and mics plugged in and all were ON! There was no lip sync, autotuning and no auto crap! This was played and filmed LIVE back in 1981! 😀👍🎸🎹
How could you not have ever heard of Journey? Even my 24 yr old knows every one of their songs.
By the way, he's back singing as a solo artist. His voice is deeper but it still makes me melt 🫠 ! Gorgeous man, gorgeous sounds and a beautiful soul. !!!
So hard to believe that there is anyone that hasn't heard Don't Stop Believin. Wish I could hear it again for the first time.
This is why Journey is one of those bands that has stood the test of time.
Year I graduated high school. Always will love Journey, my tears were rewarded when they got inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
I love this, when people hear Journey with Steve Perry as Lead Singer. He’s known as The Voice, and I don’t don’t think these guy’s ever did a bad song. If you keep going with Steve and the rest of the band your in for a mighty ride, that I can promise you. 🎼❤️🇦🇺❤️🇺🇸🕺🏻💃🎸☘️
I saw this band live 4 times! Steve Perry never disappoints! Yes he really sounds like that live!!!
I'm so jealous 😊
I saw Journey at that concert. It was FANTASTIC!! I've always loved Steve Perry's voice! And what stage presence!
lucky you!
He is the VOICE!!
I was lucky enough to see Journey in concert in April 1983!! Best concert I’ve ever seen.
This is the ROCK we ROLLED to in the 80's
Steve Perry is a consumate performer and his voice is perfect. I totally love him! There's no reason this kind of music can't be resurrected today. It's possible!
Steve Perry is one of the best singers ever! Notice how he tends to tilt his head to his right to hit notes. I love that!
I had never gone to a live concert but I knew my wife's favorite band was Journey. I found out that they were coming to a town within a short drive. I bought tickets and told my wife we were going to meet her sister in that city at an Olive Garden.
She did not know where we were going until we pulled into the parking lot.
She was blown away but so was I. They were great.
Can honestly say one of my regrets is never being able to see Journey live with Perry. This had to be epic. Did finally see them with Arnel and it was pretty incredible. Great reaction - and you're right, there aren't many performances like this anymore.🙂❤
No comparison with arnell, I saw perry with journey 4 times, believe me no comparison, perry was an absolute beast.
Got to see them twice with S.P. ... AMAZING show!
I saw them in Austin on this same tour. Steve Perry was at the height of his talent. Remarkable. Stunning. 🤩😍
He is the best vocalist of all time. Go down the rabbit hole with Journey but make sure it is with Steve Perry. He made the band famous.
He does not hold a candle to Freddy M....Perry is a prick....I was listening to Journey LONG before he joined the band.
Yes and thank you for saying that. His voice is amazing. I agree 💯. Journey is the best concert I ever went to and I have been to a lot of concerts.
Exactly
Steve is the best ever vocalist!!!
You shouldn't be allowed to listen to music unless you know Steve and Freddie.
Steve Perry is considered one of the best to ever do it. Listen to Faithfully (my all-time favorite), Separate Ways, Open Arms. I grew up listening to them & am proud to say I am from their hometown. Plus, all of them are prolific songwriters and musicians.
Lol Faithfully is my favorite song of all times. I was young and impressionable when it was released it has always stuck with me
One of the best songs ever, they sure don't make them like that. ❤
There's a reason why his nickname is 'the voice.' I saw them on this tour and it really was an incredible show. Really enjoyed your reaction to this one, too. Could you check out their song "Escape." It's too often overlooked and has some great transitions; I really think you'd like it!
Finally someone who recognizes Escape for being the great song that it is. The live performance from this concert is freakin' incredible.
Totally agree!!
Great performance by one of the most iconic, recognizable voices in rock history!
Love Steve Perry and Journey.
Faithfully, mother father, open arms and many more his vocals are insane
Mother Father at the end was the best!
@@chrisr.2886 Also still they ride . patiently , winds of march , stay awhile , wheel in the sky here is a song from Trial by Fire( One More ) awesome song.
Mother, Father... My absolute favorite. Gives me chills !
Mother Father is my all time favorite! My son's favorite is Wheel in the Sky :)
@@elsieservant6963 All of those you listed, I never get tired of listening to. Journey is not the same without Perry.
My generation of music, your right, they dont make it like this anymore. An erra of music, talent, raw skill, great bands, amazing lyrics, and showmanship.
Steve Perry is known as The Voice. A moniker given to him by Jon Bon Jovi. His range spans from F♯2 to A5. Perry's voice has been described as a high 'tenor altino' somewhere between Sam Cooke and Aretha Franklin.
As part of Journey and as a solo artist, Perry has an amazing collection of hits. Everyone will suggest his Journey hits and his early solo hits like Oh Sherrie. But Perry released an album in 2018 called Traces. And his voice still shines! Check out We’re Still Here and all the rest of Traces. He is still AMAZING!!!
Very few singers give you goosebumps . He is one of them
Faithfully. Lights. When you love a woman. Must listen too. Best voice ever! Even Freddie said Steve was the best
Finally, a RUclipsr that gets it. The world just advanced. I’m shocked.
Your reaction is priceless! This voice was my youth. No auto tune. Just talent! Love me some Steve Perry
My favorite voices from that era are Steve Perry and Daryl Hall. Such beautiful, distinctive voices.
Two of the best voices EVER!! Steve Perry and Journey!! Doesn't get any better!!!
Two nice choices! I love the 70s and 80s! High school class of 1984 here! From Loudoun County, Virginia! Thanks for sharing! 😎😎
This is what 'REAL' singing 'LIVE' looks like and 'SOUNDS LIKE!!!'
If you really want to hear something AMAZING?! React to 'Mother Father' from this same concert!! Us Classic Journey fans call that performance a 'Masterpiece!!!'
I am so excited seeing YOUR excitrment over this best of all time songs!! You see, music really was at its best in the 70s and eighties! And Steve Perry? A LEGEND!!! ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
Dude he's one of the greatest singers to ever live. Nobody can be seen like him. He had the equivalent to Eddie Mercury if anybody. Plus he grew up in my hometown so I'm Prejudice LOL look it up Hanford California
The greatest male rock singer of all time
Sin duda
I'm always blown away (and thrilled) when young people discover the music I grew up with. Journey is one DEEP rabbit hole to go down. I hope you take the ride. This is just the beginning. Check out 'Mother, Father' performed live at the same show.
Very cool to find you discovering Journey for the 1st time. It'll be great seeing you become a hardcore fan. It is inevitable.
In college in the early '80s, all the guys knew that Journey was 'chick rock'.
We didn't know why, but we didn't care. It was pretty cool to see the ladies like great music.
This is why the eighties were the best. So glad to have been a teenager graduated in 88.
He’s the voice! Forever and always my favorite!❤️
Came across ur page and stopped to watch! Wanted to let u know, I was at this very show, I live n Houston and was with my boyfriend! Back then, I listened to Journey n my car on cassette, remember it was 1981, I was a senior n high school! Send her my Love,, and Faithfully are incredible Journey hits too!
Music that stirs the immortal soul will never go out of fashion...end of story...Ty brother for this
Journey my favorite band ever! Jump in the Journey deep end !!! The water and tunes are absolutely fantastic!!! Never a bad song. Jump in dude with both feet or head/heart first. You won’t be sorry. Journey On!
Steve Perry's voice is incredible ! ♥
He sung it like it's nothing...on a level the most can't reach - legendary!
Michael Duffy, - you are so sweet ! I am loving you and your video of one of my favorite of all time bands, - Journey. I have seen them three times - once even at my local high school in the '70's, before Steve Perry became their front man. Then in '80, and 81. 49 years later, I am still listening, albeit on the internet, now obviously. You are great, your are handsome, you are articulate and compelling. Keep on bringing us great content. All my best to you !
Most perfectly accurate live singer in the rock genre.
New sub here! Best reaction to a Journey song ever. You absolutely get it! First song I heard was "Lovin Touchin Squeezin". I wore it out on my 8track player! Saw them in concert (first row) and I have had a crush on Steve Perry ever since and I'm a 64 year old grandmother of 8! Can't wait to see your next reaction to Journey!!! Thanks for sharing!
Ahhh thanks so much means the world!!!! Thanks can’t wait to dive deeper into their catalog!! 😁🙏
Journey went through so many changes. I received a not so nice comment from a fellow subscriber. As if I didn't know about Randy Jackson. I just appreciated your reaction and my love for Journey and Steve Perry! Appreciate you! Let me know if and when you come to Texas!!!
Mike, I was at this show in 81 in Houston....amazing group, amazing vocals. "Mother, Father" from this same show is a great listen as well.
I was there... Journey was such an awesome band...for ever I am a Steve Perry fan... was so sad when he walked away. I understood...but, still... one of a kind voice!
You are absolutely right; they DON'T make music like this anymore!! I will be forever grateful for being of this era!!!!
He considered among people in rock n Roll to be in the top ten male vocalists.
I loved this! Especially the wardrobe comment! reminds me of the Charlie Murphy story, shirts vs blouses...😂 dead!! His voice will always be such a backdrop of my life!! Amazeballs!! Thanks!
If Silk Could sing it would sound like Steve Perry. It is so fun to watch these young people being amazed by the music we grew up listening to. This is only one of Steve Perry and Journey's songs, all of them are outstanding !
Steve Perry's solo album is totally incredible from beginning to end. Steve Perry is an Amazing singer song writer!
This era''s music will live on for generations long after all the rap hip off and current garbage will have long died out and been forgotten.
Thanks for sharing your sincere reaction. I totally agree with you. I grew up during that time. God bless you!
The music back in the day was MUSIC! its was feel good music that came from the spirit, heart, and soul. It was positive. "Lets get out and live life." "I'll be there" "You are my best friend" "I love you" "Keep going." "It will be okay". These were what the songs were about. Most people under the age of 40 cannot get that because if it's not a boy or rap band singing about taking a woman or killing something, then they think it's just dumb or something to mimic or mock. These type of songs need to be brought back. And I do not mean remade.
Journey was one of my top fave bands, the only one that I had every album. So in love with Steve Perry, his voice, and emotions. I saw Journey in concert in Hawaii, when Steve Perry had much longer, shiny black hair, swinging across his back as he sang and moved around. I was far away from the stage, loving the band, especially Steve, but thinking it’s not fair that a man has that beautiful hair!!! Gorgeous man!! And he still is a Gorgeous man, with his beautiful voice and hair!
Steve Perry on vocals - amazing. Neal Schon - guitar - amazing as well. You have to check out Stone in Love from the same concert.
Yep, Stone in Love is so underrated. It's probably my favorite Journey song, except that it's too short.
Amazing!! I was at LSU in 1981. That year LSU had a major concert on campus. 20 bands, speewagon band first time on stage. Kansas, Boston and yes Journey!!!!!. I paid 5.00 dollars, what a night. Steve Perry voice, showmanship, willingness to perform in a heavely level is something that will never forget. He was humble when he stated after the concert " I gave my all to this audience". What an amazing performer, he is out of this world 🗺
I was in high school in the 80"a . listening to journey 38 special foreigner. Great bands...❤
I was one of the fortunate ones that got to grow up with this band! They are awesome!
This song hits and will always hit.....🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥.....I get chills as soon as he says I met her in a smokey room
I grew up starting in the 50’s listening to raw, God given talent. So glad I lived through those years.
Best voice ever 💖
It's always a relevant song, no matter what the age is. I love this!
I was in the third row in Cleveland Ohio for the Escape concert this was amazing. No auto-tune straight up like the record
He has the most beautiful voice!
Saw them on this tour twice! Spring and fall! Awesome show!
Millenium Singers need to learn a lot from this. Pure talent! Real Quality Voice!
Adding Steve Perry to Journey was one of the best moves for music history ever. A good friend used to say "Journey used to make music, now they make money" regarding Steve joining the band, but without him, they'd never had made it like they did.
If this is the first time you hear this song , you must have been living under a rock. Btw. Mayonnaise belongs in a pantry if unoped or the fridge once opened.
I was there, in St Paul, MN anyway, and it was FANTASTIC! Music in the late 70's through the mid 80's was awesome.
If this is your first time hearing Steve Perry, you are going to really enjoy Journey. When I first started listening to music in my youth, I didn't really pay attention to who sang the songs. I just knew what songs I liked. But when I started to buy albums, I had to start paying attention to who sang the songs. I was blown away by the number of songs that I loved that were Journey songs. They are an amazing band and Steve Perry is a PHENOMENAL vocalist!!!!
Perfect commentary. Steve Perry is the voice of Jouney. Always will be, no matter who takes over the lead singing.
There will never be another ... Seen Journey with Steve Perry on there last tour with him . Journey in my opinion will never be without Steve.
Can't believe someone never heard this song before, lol. Nice to see your first time experience with this GOATed song.
Great band great song. You took me back to high school. Thanks for that, fun to listen with you. Steve Perry is an amazing singer.
Steve Perry is a vocal god...Journey never really reached the same pinnacles they did when he was in it. However, we have to give credit to the entire band. Steve Smith's unique and intricate rhythm carry the song and that lead guitar 🎸 👌 wow 👏...
That...AND...the poetry of the lyrics.,like you said. My favorite line "streetlight people living just to find emotion, hiding somewhere in the night." Theres a reason why this is considered one of the best songs ever written.
Growing up than all our bands are legendary. It was just our lives to go to concerts, that's what we did. 60's, 70's, and 80's . Great memories connect to bands. Where you were, who you were with. That's what us teens to young adults did. So meny concerts. Great reaction
“Can you imagine being at this!” Yes I can, I saw this tour live in 81 in Hartford Connecticut. It was just as incredible there.
Could I imagine being at that show? Brother,. I *was* at that show. Journey was amazing and Steve Perry had a voice like no other. Its always good to see a young person discovering the classics, which are called that for a reason.
