"BLOWN AWAY" - Journey - Separate Ways (Worlds Apart) - FIRST TIME REACTION.

[@loredorsey2820]

Really enjoyed your reaction! Journey is my absolute favorite band of all time, and of course, Steve Perry, the voice, the greatest singer ever!

[@nnmrtin8426]

Broooo you made me cry!!! I freakin love this song!!! Your reactions are always the best!! Please watch the live performance in Budokan 1983!

[@MrRomansk1]

I also tear up when I hear exceptional music, it’s a gift to feel that imo

[@Sheliahhh69]

Love your reaction! Love your channel! I saw them twice in the late 80's. Yes, that tells you just how old I am. Ha. Keep reacting to great songs & you will go far, my friend! Sending much love, light & positivity! ❤⭐️👍

[@lesleekahler6514]

I'm a middle aged white woman, and this song came out when I was in college, my friends and I would drive down the road with the windows down and Journey cranked up. Their songs really spoke to my friends and I when we were in our late teens and early twenties. Still love their music

[@dawgsndiamonds910]

The things you sd abt Journey at the beginning- made me CRY!!!!!😅 THANK YOU for giving them the praise & recognition they SO deserve🙏, & I hope some time you’ll be able to react to the VIDEO😊-some don’t like it & say it’s ‘cheesy’😅, I frickin’ *LOVE* it!!!!!!!😂 #StevePerry🥰💘 #TheVoice🎤 #Journey🎶😁

[@heatherkealoha4137]

I don't know, man, I've seen a lot of reactions to Journey/Steve Perry but I think yours is the best. Your reactions are genuine...and with emotions! Love how you analyze the entire song. Journey and Steve Perry...you sure know good music! Keep it goin'!😉

[@carolnewsome554]

Steve and Jon wrote this song because at the time, Neal and Ross as well as some crew members were going through nasty divorces. Steve said it was very stressful for everyone. He and Jon wished there was a less hurtful and painful way to end a relationship. That is what this song is about.

[@paulreilly2428]

Hap - Love to see the emotion the song brought to you! When you are feeling it.... you're feeling it. Good on you.

[@pamelamiller3749]

I LOVE your reactions!!! I LOVE Journey!

Thank you so much!!

[@ausfuhrpramienjagar]

Only one word describes this... "Incredimazing!". Back when music was REAL! 🙂

[@dawgsndiamonds910]

OOPS P.S.!!!!!!😅-if you can, also check out the 1983 live performance in Tokyo- AMAZING!!!!!😁🎶🎤🌹😁

[@cnatview]

Amazing..... I am 65 years old. I had been married since I was 18. Moved away from where I was born and raised; went through having kids (who are now out on their own); houses; animals and a husband, all of those things that for years I had put before myself. Then I turned 64. I realized that I had lost the heart of the young person that I was all of those years ago....and that beat, that drive to go home and find her started in me...much like the beat at the beginning of this song. I was living in Arizona and I knew it would be a tremendous feat to find my way back home to New York, just south of the Canadian border but I couldn't mute the beat, the drive to do so. I told my now ex that I wanted to go home and he said he couldn't come back so I said, well... we must go our separate ways because I have to find "someone", meaning me. When I was at the airport waiting for my flight (you called it a road trip...lol) this song actually started playing somewhere close to where I was sitting on someone's laptop. I thought it was so fitting at that moment in time. First time in my life that I am living alone, listening to my own inner self. Thanks for rebooting this recent memory for me, Hap because sometimes I have moments that question myself about where I am today but this sparks that beat, that drive to continue this journey of discovery I decided to take. Woooo hooooo with your NY jacket!!!! So ironic you're wearing it with this song. lol Take care and be well.... Peace.

[@VUM.M]

@cnatview, thanks for sharing your story. That costs a lot of courage to do so, but at the end I think it’ll be absolutely worth it to stay true to yourself. Wish you all the best on your further way to „someone“… 😊🙋🏻‍♀️

[@cnatview]

@@VUM.M Thank you....I am home and life is good. Thanks so much for your thoughts. ✌️

[@LeNaInLoVe]

THIS IS.... GOOD.... MUSIC.... sound.... VIBE.... PERIOD!

[@corazonyee7717]

Steve used Bass guitar while creating this song with Jonathan Cain who used a guitar, at the backstage while on tour of Escape

[@Basai7]

Genius songwriting. That first bridge...leads you into reverie, maybe regret, then.....bam! Final chorus! "...and if he ever hurts you..." 🔥

[@fabianaalba3268]

Uh my goodness Mr perry still the voice the Rock and roll baby wow songs happy it's a same time so sand😃😃😃👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏👑👑🎶🎶❤️❤️❤️🥰🥰🥰

[@beccifeaster6624]

I’m so thankful that you feel the exact thing I felt forty years ago with Steve & Journey.

[@wendyhowe2178]

Love your reaction to this amazing song Hap. Keep the Journey reactions coming. Hoping one day you’ll say...Journey is your favorite 80s band. Still love this band for over 40 years.

[@tanaforet8684]

Great reaction as always Hap! So enjoying your ride into Journey! Steve Perry’s voice is so golden and silky smooth. Would love to see you react to Why Can’t This Night Go On Forever! Super great power ballad and one of my many Journey favorites. Keep enjoying the ride, I will be right there with you♥️

[@melissaphillips3088]

I love that you love Journey👏🏻🇺🇸💕

[@donmorton4597]

With you all the way buddy, great reaction.

[@HAP3SPEAKZ]

Legend!

[@carolgerlt7183]

It was definitely a song that the volume was cranked up on the radio when I was driving. Steve Perry has a voice like no other! One of my favorite bands.

[@katg6325]

Journey never disappoints. Enjoy your reactions.

[@debbiemiller8168]

I have always said to my son that the young now days have missed out on the good times of the 80’s. Bands popping up everywhere and making GOOD ROCK & ROLL not only great songs but all the boys in the band played their own Instruments . You don’t see that now days. It’s all computer and only one person on that stage. Journey was a great band to see and could really put on a GREAT SHOW. My god seeing Steve dance around on that stage really made a girl go home and DREAM. I saw that band every time I could. Just loved them! ✌️ from the 🇺🇸 Great Video!! And Great sing!!! Memories are spilling out of me right now and all good ones too! 😁😁 THANKS!!!

[@arthurestrada2682]

Great reaction. Stay blessed and continue to be great.

[@RustyHinge]

Many of Journey's albums featured a scarab in their artwork. Do a google search on their album covers. Infinity, Evolution, Departure, Captured, Escape, Greatest Hits, Time3 all show the scarab in different stages. It continues with Arrival, The Essential, Greatest Hits II, Generations, Revelation and Eclipse.

[@JaneSmith-lu8ol]

A great song and another great reaction by the very best reactor. Much love from Canada 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦

[@gram5751]

I am always anxious for another Journey reaction! You always go a step further in your analysis of both the lyrics and instrumentals rhan anyone else. Pleased to be a subscriber! 👍

Yo, HAP! This is my favorite Journey song EVER! I’ve been blessed to have seen them 4 times in concert and this song just electrifies the crowd and you feel through your bones! Bro, thanks for doing this reaction! Must check out more Journey. “Ask the Lonely” and “Girl Can’t Help It” are good ones to check out.

[@lauraautry6992]

I love and appreciate your reactions 🤗❤️🎶🎶🎶

[@donellefeltham]

I quit often come back and watch your videos, I never get tired of your enjoyment and reactions to people I follow. Not once or twice a lot more so thankyou for the music and the enjoyment I get out of seeing how happy these songs make you and isn’t that what music is supposed to do, I think so.🎼❤️🇦🇺❤️🇬🇧🕺🏻💃🎸☘️

[@VUM.M]

@Donelle, Same here. I often come back to his reactions just because I like his style and to see his joy and appreciation and to read such lovely comments 😉. Just to be entertained and to have a time to forget problems for a while, to enjoy and to come back kind of refreshed and new energised. Greetings from Germany 😊🙋🏻‍♀️

[@cden409]

Haps, Don’t stop believing (song) has been selected to be inducted(?) into The Library of Congress! It’s wonderful and an honor.

[@jillmcilwain2633]

Awesome song!! 🎶 Great selection Debra! Thanks for not showing the cheesy video, it is a time warp though 😅 Shot in New Orleans during Mardi Gras, for $5K and no concept, going into the shoot. Best thing to come out of the video was "Oh Sherrie", because of the fight Steve Perry and his girlfriend Sherrie Swafford had regarding the casting of the female lead in the video, not Sherrie😉 Steve is in particularly spectacular voice and the orchestration is dynamite💥. Hap your reaction is exactly 💯 appropriate. I so appreciate you not holding back on your feelings!! Peace J ✌ ☮ 💕

[@jillmcilwain2633]

@hap3speakz. "After The Fall" is another great Journey song that doesn't get the recognition it should. kzbin.info/www/bejne/nKfXgGxnrNWXgrM

What can I say!? The one and only Steve Perry and Journey! That one hit home!! But in a unrequited love situation, going separate ways is the only thing to do, reminding the other party that there is still love and are welcome to return if things don't work out. A realistic life song- FANTASIC reaction,Hap!! Wouldn't it be fun if you could see the emotional reactions of the viewers from the other side of the camera!. Take care!! 💜🎵💜🎵 Great choice, DEBRA,S. 😊

This quickly became one of my favourite reactions of you, Hap. Awesome descriptions and interpretation of the song. I cannot agree more with you. 🎵

[@johnfarmer7119]

It gives me chills when you react this way to music I grew up with. The music I listened to on albums, 8-track tapes, cassette tapes, CD's, et cetera. Sharing your musical journey (no pun intended) and seeing your reactions are so satisfying. I think about how, without the channel, you might have missed out on some of the best musical creators in history. It's almost as if I am hearing them for the first time, too. "Thanks for the memories." -- Bob Hope (circa, way before you were born). That was his theme song. ; - )

[@davidsonchris737]

Check out the Song from the Frontiers Album ( After The Fall ) & have seen His Video from the movie Quest for Camelot? I Stand Alone ? Freakin' Awesome 👌 BIG-TIME!!!

[@reneeheknowsmyname6771]

Well, my friend! You are now almost done with the first side of the Frontiers album. The next 2 songs are.....'After The Fall and Chain Reaction!' And then you have the whole other side to react to!!! I'm so glad you're becoming a Classic Journey fan!!!

This reaction was absolutely fantastic. You're the best Hap. I hope that one day, Steve Perry and Journey see your reactions to them sometime soon. You just never know. 🙂 Cheers Hap!

[@gracek4309]

Great song!! Loved the meaning behind the lyrics. Thanks for ur awesome reaction on top. 👍

[@gram5751]

Walks Like a Lady live in Osaka 1980 is great early Steve Perry Journey. Escape from Houston 1981 is an underappreciated song. And Missing You, Foolish Heart and What Was are solo Perry gold!

[@VUM.M]

Oh what a powerful upbeat song. Since I'm more used to hear a kind of ballads from them, this is really a firework- WOW 🤩🔥. This has to be one of my favorites so far. I love your always honest reaction HAP. No reason to hold back. I jammed and rocked with you and hid a tear because of the very true and deep lyrics. But I guess that's life sometimes. Great reaction 🤩. But now I'm curious what you're hiding underneath 🤣🙋🏻‍♀️. Great song selection Debra S.👍

[@k_salter]

Great song and great reaction! Glad you didn't watch the video cuz it's kind of cringe-worthy; even Journey wasn't thrilled with it. So many good recs here, and I'll add their song "Escape" to the list. Be sure to check it out. Thanks for this one.

[@marianclough8577]

I love your reaction!!! And....you make me laugh so often!!!

[@sarahm.5356]

Is there anyone else who would like to see someone react to "Captured by the Moment"? Although idk if only people of a certain age appreciate it :)

[@Srrrrrrr...]

It's funny how people's mindset differs. It puts you on a road to Las Vegas with that special someone. It turns me into Batman... a lonely troubled hero on the streets at night. :)

[@nancywyatt821]

That's why Steve hated MTV, the listeners should make their own images in their heads.

[@melissaphillips3088]

Hap there is a wonderful song by Journey called Still She Cries that is a beautiful romantic ballad. Listen to it and see if you like it . ☀️

[@mmay2669]

The MTV video that was made for this song is so cheesy, but the song is so great it's probably the most parodied music video in history. There are some really hysterical videos out there.

[@donellefeltham]

Now you’ve heard the song Hap, look up the Video on KZbin, you won’t be disappointed it’s a great video which set’s the scene for Separate Ways. Really Journey we’re before their time and have remained a one of kind group even now in 2022 they are still relevant to this day, as far as groups go there were none better and the original group still to today knock you out with their music.🎼❤️🇦🇺❤️🇬🇧🕺🏻💃🎸☘️

[@cynthiachilders3942]

And now Stranger Things 4 uses this song in their trailer… it sounds awesome!

Take a listen and react to journeys "escape" always been my favorite

[@philgonzalez5953]

Try the band Boston

[@cathytobias4722]

There is a song in Scarface that sounds very similar to this! 😁 Sadly there are times you don't have a choice but to go your separate ways, if it's meant to be you'll find your way back to one another!😢

[@brenzoetorres7860]

Please react to " Edge of the Blade" or "Frontiers" from Journey!!!👋🇵🇷

[@tippygirl773]

Hey, Hap! I'm loving your reactions to Journey's music and the way you show your feelings. It's refreshing. Also, would like for you to react to the live version of Journey performing a mash-up of their songs "Hopelessly in Love" and "The Party's Over" live in Tokyo in 1981. Of course, Steve sounds phenomenal, but at around minute 3:58, you get to hear how amazing guitarist Neal Schon, drummer Steve Smith, and bassist Ross Valory truly are. At one point, you can see how much fun Ross is having when he smiles as Neal and Steve Smith are 'in the zone.' This is the link kzbin.info/www/bejne/h6CzYnSBmNOZqJo

[@julianneduplessis5645]

Please listen to some of their more underrated songs like Suzanne or Escape (Live in Houston), Steve Perry's vocals are insane, running around a stage and the rest of the band are just on point ❤‍🔥👏

[@eviep2]

Have you listened to the remix of the same song done for the series " Stranger Things" ? It is simply a masterpiece.

[@williamfisher8239]

Edge if the blade is another song about the nasty dog races and break ups at the time if Frontiers even more rocking than separate ways with schon's guitar work and Steve's driving vocal power with Smith in Drums. The song drives through the whole way. Work h the listen.

[@brianpercival1829]

Dissapointed you didn't do the MTV video version.

[@Woman....]

Ver una reacción es mejor con el vídeoclip ya q está disponible ,así es bastante aburrido

[@darksword1]

You have to listen to Journey 2008 live Las Vegas with Arnel Pineda. Separate Ways. IMHO, better than Steve perry's. I know, it's sacrilegious to say but that's my opinion.

[@lawrenceadkins2924]

Arnel Pineda, the current Journey singer, ruins this song by replacing the last note with an ascending slide.
