- I had a great talk with Steve Perry about coming back to music, reuniting with Journey at the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, and about the woman who inspired his comeback.
I found Steve to be open, thoughtful, honest and articulate. Really enjoyed doing this interview, and I hope you will enjoy listening.
Thank you Steve for keeping your promise. I'm sure Kellie is so proud of you and cheering you on from Heaven. What a wonderful, humble, eloquent man and a beautiful soul.
"Your heart isn't complete until it has been broken" . . . Totally get that. We love ya Steve
He's a true romantic. Love that quality!
From the heart.. he came back because of his love & a promise for someone near to him. Not because of all the other typical reasons (money, fame, etc.) awesome!!
Greatest vocalist ever!! By a long shot!!!
Welcome Back Steve Perry. I wish you all the best in the world.
He's back!!! We're so happy that he came back on his own time and terms with his life and music..Welcome back Steve we've missed you!!
Hell ya!!
Teresa Rouse Exactly he did it his way on his own terms it's from the heart you can hear it in the song No Erasin ❤️
Steve Perry was Journey the band had to move on and they did don't really care what Steve Perry does could have come back many times but didn't
STEVE PERRY IS SO HUMBLE,,, AND OH HOW HE SHINES! ! ! 💖💖💕
I admire Steve’s humility, but he was and always will be “the voice”
yes "The Voice"
Welcome back Mr. Perry!!! You have been so missed and you are, very much loved!!!
We never stopped loving you Steve. We glad you're back. Elated actually. Glad you found a re-connection to your music.
So damn good to hear that voice again! With a tear running down my cheek, the music world is all smiles again! My heart is dancing..❤️
Beverly Riggs ❤️🙂❤️🙂❤️🙂
Steve sounds so humble, A great singer and human being.
I graduated in 1985. All of my friends knew who my group was...no doubt. I also was never ashamed to say, Steve was my favorite lead of all time. Of course I must say my entire high school years were spent listening to Journey. They we're definitely one of the very top groups of my era. So happy to hear from Steve. I have at least eight journey songs on my play list inside my cell phone. Love ya Steve. Thanks for so many great songs and I know journey is great without Steve as musicians. I give them respect but.........it was not my journey without Steve. That voice was journey for me.
Hello Wow I totally agree that Steve's Voice was Journey, for me, too! 💖
Thank you Steve Perry for coming back . You were deeply missed and loved . Love the New Song. You were never forgotten. Good luck on the future Cd. But I'm sure it's gonna be a hit. Your music has always touch my heart and soul. So for that I'm forever grateful.
AWESOME Steve!
Yea, Its a loong time coming.. As a faithful fans of Steve Perry are so excited to him to see him perform again. Looking Great, Steve🤗
I am so happy to know Steve Perry is singing again. He still gives me goosebumps. Keep doing what you're doing. Your fans have and always will be there.
We never forgot you, Steve! Your heart and soul are beautiful...always were. Your voice is a kiss from God. Thank you for sharing your new inspirations with us!
Oh how I’ve missed Steve’s voice !!! I wonder if he knows how much his Voice and Songs are such a part , a real part , of so many lives, especially those of us growing up in the 80’s !! “No Erasin” for sure! I saw him Live in April 1983 & will never forget 😍🤗😘❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
MidLife Housewife ok
Music needs you Steve, thanks for coming back. It is refreshing to have new music from you. Your voice is amazing still to this day.
' A heart is not complete until it's completely broken'. Is that what SP said? Magic!
This is a dream come true! I'm terminally ill and never thought he'd come back. I cried when I heard he was. Hopefully I will survive long enough to see him perform. I've already told my daughter to play his songs as I pass away because nothing makes me happier. I love you Steve! You are The Voice! You are the only Journey I love. 😘😘❤️❤️😍😍
Annette Brown I'm sorry you don't feel well me to I waited so long for Steve to come back out feel better
Annette Brown God bless you I pray for a healing for you in Jesus name❤️😘
Phyllis peace Thank you so much. Peace and love ❤️
Jeffrey Romualdi Thank you so much. Peace and love ❤️
Ms Brown, Keep fighting!!!! I am singing one for you!
This is the best news I have heard in a LONG time!
My girl cried when she heard the news. Steve Perry is 70, so this is truly a gift to the fans and the generations from that era.
This is the most incredible and awesome news! I was happy just listening to his music he has already produced, solo work and with Journey. As a loyal fan and he is my most favorite vocalist of all time and I am walking on a cloud in Heaven. I have to say that the the promise Steve made is the most important part of the incredible news of him singing again. I am so sorry for your loss Steve Perry and you are a wonderful man to keep the heartfelt promise. You are so wonderful! Best wishes to you Steve Perry!! I will be patiently waiting to get my copy of his new album. He most certainly has been missed by me and many I know! I have a group of people that just am so excited!!! We are your fans forever Steve Perry!
I never stopped BELIEVING!!!!!
So happy for this. The voice of my generation
Welcome back, Steve! You have truly been missed. I knew one day you come back and grace us again with your voice. I knew it had to be a promise kept to Killie. I knew it would take time to heal as a whole and finally put your heart back into music. I have heard the new song and I LOVE IT! Waiting patiently for the rest of the album to come out. I've been a fan since your Journey days and from then on. I do a lot of Perry art and listen to your music daily. Your music has helped me through some of my darkest days. Somewhere there's hope will always be one of my favorite songs. Thank you for blessing us with your voice again and for giving us die-hard Steve Perry fans the gift of music to listen to! Missing you and wishing you the best of luck on new music adventure!
We've always said he could read the phone book and we'd be listening closely because Steve Perry speaks from the heart and soul just as he sings from those within. Here we've been wondering what he's been occupying himself with (other than the collaborations with other artists here and there and being a consultant for Director/Storyteller Patty Jenkins) since we last heard from him in a spate of interviews. We were past check-in time and now a flurry of great interviews on the heels of the release of "NoErasin"! What an awesome performance and what a cohesive and amazing sound with these new members of his band! Quality all around is supreme and that VOICE and here we listen to his heartfelt story picked up with the entrance of his great, True Love: Kellie. He is so philosophical and wise about life and we sit at his feet and listen fully intent on learning from this man of great character, diplomacy, wisdom, and empathy towards others. Kellie and Mary and all of Steve's Cloud of Witnesses smile with Grace upon him as he steps and stomps and whirls his way around HIS stage once again. Welcome HOME Steve Perry! Thank you Bruce for allowing Steve to be Steve and share from his heart and soul. Blessings!!!
Gabby Sojourner Beautifully said! 🤗
Heard the new single, “ No Erasin’”. It’s awesome and bought it from iTunes. It’s awesome to hear new material, however a sound that takes me back to 83/84. Steve’s vocals and the harmonies and his band he did the single with are top notch awesome!
Andrew Dean go to traces.steveperry.com/ and you can pre-order a bunch of things. Check it out! 😁
Happy, Happy, Happy!!! I love you Steve.
I could listen to him speak all day! I've heard several interviews the past few days and never get tired of it. I love his sense of humor and the heart felt stories of his Kellie!
We lost the amazing Aretha yesterday, but to know Steve "The Voice" is back and making music again softens the blow. I totally understand the need to step away from situations that cause burnout, and as much as I missed him, I'm glad that he took care of himself first. But damn, I'm so happy he's back! And his tribute to his love Kelli makes me smile. You kept your promise to her. Thank you. Thank you for being a part of the soundtrack of my life, from my junior high school days until forever. Journey remains my favorite band because of Steve. And yes, your humility in giving Arnel props. Still have goosebumps remembering meeting you in an elevator, lol. Fangirl squee!
We as fans and as a country needed this joy today. So beyond happy he's back!
I am so happy Steve Perrys come back!!
The voice on the soundtrack of my happiest moments.
Great interview. Welcome back Steve. He sounds great so happy and full of energy. Your are the best Steve.
So glad he is back. Yes I have been waiting 25 years!
Steve Perry the singer of the song of my life...Faithfully... Don'to go away again!!!

WELCOME BACK STEVE PERRY!!! Been alooooog time waitin!! You have a HUGE heart and an amazing voice! Look forward to hearing the album! Have already pre-ordered it from Amazon!

Karrin Jordan welcome back Steve. You have been missed
Steve is a great guy; such nice, gracious comments he has in this interview.
LOVE "No Eracing" great song thank you Steve
My Heart is Full once again!!❤️😎
I remember the exact moment the most incredible voice I'd ever heard graced my soul...Lovin' Touchin' Squeezin' was the song. It was in 1978-79 and I was sitting in my car in my driveway getting ready to pull out...and I couldn't because I was mesmerized by this Voice. Since that moment Steve Perry has been my favorite singer...ever. I think that's around 40 years.
Life just got a whole lot better. Thank you Steve.
OMG..share did miss you..love this new album..your voice is so beautiful in every time in your life. It has changed all the different times but still with each time your voice still remains beautiful..
THE Real Voice of JOURNEY

His talent is God given! Amazing man. So thrilled to hear he is back! 🖤 Met him at Disneyland once! Definitely mind blowing!
Bubbles n Lipgloss mine would have been blown to. Always dreamed of meeting this beautiful man and voice
Bubbles n Lipgloss You are so right His Voice is I agree God Given.
Bubbles n Lipgloss
No god is proven to be real, so why do you need to attribute an unproven existence as the cause for someone who has done something extraordinary?
Did you observe the claimed-yet-unproven god you believe in actually existing? If you have, then you're delusional, unless you can present an actual existing god as proof.
Great interview...such transparent and touching statements... Steve will blow the doors off this country with his comeback!
Love you , Steve faithfully
GREAT RESPECT - THE VOICE!!
🤘🏅🏅🏅🎼🎵🎶🎶🤗😎🌈
Steve Perry is back and all is right with the world. I'm giddy with joy!!
“Your heart isn’t complete until it’s completely broken”.....DAMN, so true! Kudos for making and keeping that promise, Steve!
Will always love and support you Steve. So sorry for your loss. You are and always have been the greatest rock singer. I will buy your new album. ❤️❤️😁😁 I’ve always loved you. Have all of your music. Also don’t ever think you were the last guy. Journey are great musicians but it was you that made them. I give arneil credit to but you can’t be replaced
Steve it's good to hear your vouce again. And Im sincerely sorry for your loss of Ms. Kelly Nash. I think we can all identify and sympathise with you over your love loss Mr. Perry. Its so good to hear you singing again sir. I have missed your talented tones and inflections.
I'd give anything to talk to this man lol hes my vocal hero! I learned most of my vocal ability from him
jessie mann me to I would give any thing to meet steve
You are the voice of journey steve no one else is and he's back loving it
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 No Erasin kicks ass!! Steve looks and sounds the same as he did in the eighties and early nineties. Journey lost out, no offense Arnel, but noone is better than Steve!! I am sooo happy he's back! No Erasin is awesome!! It's a great day and Steve looks and sounds like hes in his 40s..it's terrific!!!
Jennifer Bradt From what we've heard from Arnel in interviews about Steve, I'll bet Arnel is happy about Steve's return! 😊
So excited to hear the energy radiating from your interview. Totally thankful that you found your love for music again! That voice should be shared because of the great joy it brings to the world, and most importantly to you again!!! 💖🎤🎶

STEVE PERRY IS JOURNEY!
patrick mcglone ..... Well he doesn't think so. He has a new solo record???? Soooo. He doesn't think he's journey.
He doesn’t need Journey he’s incredible and they are nothing without him
Steve Perry is Steve Perry. Journey continues to go forward. It is 2018, stop living in the past
larry thomas well you're entitled to your opinion as am I. And I'm not living in the past, I've been a journey fan since the onset of Steve. And I like journey with him. I've heard journey with arnel and seen them in concert in Atlantic City years ago and to me it's not same. And because I'm entitled TO MY OPINION, doesn't mean I'm living in the past. It just means I like what I like!
Yes he is ?
