Steve Perry is a class of his own , that man remains unmatched

[@adam872]

Singularly one of the greatest live vocal performances I've ever heard. It's incredible.

[@jordangroff8978]

I honestly think that out of all classic rock singers (Plant, Mercury, Daltrey, etc.) nobody could sing better live than Perry. NOBODY!!

[@andrewsneacker1256]

khm..McCartney... khmm..

[@dhawkins13770]

@@andrewsneacker1256 McCartney couldn't touch Perry's tone, range or emotion.

[@andrewsneacker1256]

[@rushfan5563]

You're def right

[@nicomuller8299]

Mercury sucks and he cant sing

[@distantstorm3808]

Steve Perry is the greatest of all time. Yes, I said it.

[@rsoliz71]

I was 10 years old at this show with my Mom and sister because they couldn't find a babysitter. I became a musician because of this show.

[@frankofelko87]

The Greatest Front Man Lead Singer...EVER!!!!!!!!!

[@glendirienzo1365]

You know it.

[@terryduncan31]

Totally agree!

[@billpaladino5392]

No auto tune, pitch correction or pro tools....just plugging in and playing live. Incredibly talented, all of them.

[@tammyf.7864]

And this judge gives Steve Perry a 10 for the microphone dismount!!! 🤣 The man is a vocal genius!!!

[@briandavidson1946]

When Steve sings he makes love to the words and the songs are orgasmic. That's the VOICE!!!

[@kimknute6777]

Excellently put 👋

[@reneeheknowsmyname6771]

This is why us Classic Journey fans call this live song a 'Masterpiece!!!' It's perfect in every way! Also this song wasn't performed during the whole Escape tour. Only a few cities were blessed to hear this amazing song! Mother Father, has always been my all time favorite song from the Escape album. It's such a underrated song! Next up should be ...... 'Still They Ride!!! and Why Can't This Night Go On Forever!!!'

[@Badatitude21]

Its a special song for true old fans like us. The length of the song kept it from the charts, hence is why its that masterpiece just for us fans to enjoy.

[@reneeheknowsmyname6771]

@@Badatitude21 .... Indeed!!!

[@mikeboston421]

totally agree, and love love love 'Why Cant this night go on forever', incredible tune

[@reneeheknowsmyname6771]

@@mikeboston421 ...... Yes!!

[@mrb4749]

Im listening to music over 60 years i believe Steve is in his own league he may be the greatest singer ever especially from the late 70s thru the 80s. He was,at the top of the heap. Fortunately he's making a comeback, his stellar voice is so needed on the airwaves.

[@bradley4808]

As a tenor vocally, this song is ridiculously HARD!!!

[@tcconnection]

He thought it was one of the hardest? Cain said he did the song for the album in one take. Can you imagine doing this in one take? Broke the mould when Perry was created.

[@MetalMcfly]

Such a sad song on so many levels that a lot of the world's population can relate to unfortunately. A broken home with an alcoholic father who's addiction just tears a family unit apart from the inside out as the mother is left to care for her children .... alone. Steve is an absolute alien and the last 30 secs of this performance confirms he is not human. Incredible display of passion, emotion and vocal skill. He truly is one of a kind.

[@gram5751]

Steve has talked alot about his own family breaking up and how deeply it affected him. You can hear his emotions in this song. He is a one in a million singer.

[@MetalMcfly]

@@gram5751 Yes he has and he found solace in singing growing up as therapy to him due to how much he was affected. Very sad situation but it also molded him into the musician he was destined to become. You are absolutely correct, one in a million.

[@gram5751]

So grateful that he shared his gift with the world 🙂❤️🙂

[@hobbiespr]

....In an interview, a reporter asked Freddy Mercury how it felt to be the best rock singer, and he answered: "Why don't you ask Steve Perry"

[@mariongeisendorf9518]

Das sind eben die ganz großen der Rockgeschichte 👌

[@stephaniewashburn7700]

My first concert! Steve has one of the most beautiful voices ever 🖤

[@freddiemercury3205]

They definitely need to upload more of Journey and Steve Perry... some like Don't Stop Believing, Separate Ways, Wheel in the Sky, Ask Lonely, Suzanne, Lights, I'll be alright without you... pfff many more is what that your fans were waiting for :')

[@idalucero1260]

"Something to Hide", "Loving, Touching ,Squeezing", Foolish Heart"...

[@jeraldjosey]

i was at this concert, i was 13 years old what a great childhood

[@joegrahe3958]

You all just watched the greatest live vocal performance ever recorded

[@cden409]

See it live ‘Still they Ride’ 1983 Japan. 1986 Philadelphia ‘Why can’t this night go on forever’ Only one like him at all.

[@jeffparker6844]

I have seen alot of epic shows in my life, and I have to say this was one of the most surreal concerts I ever went to. Lover boy opened for them and Journey was just spot on all night long. His voice and Neal's playing ,. Everything was clicking that night for sure

[@Squidette18]

Love it❤️ that folks is Steve Perry’s version of a Mic Drop 😎

[@412foto]

his voice is INSANE!!

[@jorgebrahim1565]

No body can sign like him... Steve Perry the best Malé voice ever no doubt about MR STEVE PERRY this group never be the same with out him

[@kesleycottrell1416]

Steve Perry's voice is unreal. The band is awesome. I seen them on this tour in 81 in Cleveland. They was at their best then.

[@generoberts9151]

Steve Perry at his peak. Early 80s his vocals were untouchable. Don’t sleep on Neil Schon

[@joegrahe3958]

Escape was his vocal pinnacle. And Schon is as good as there have ever been.

[@Ofthegirl09]

You may have just witnessed the greatest live vocal performance in rock music history! I was at that concert tour, and song after song the band and Steve Perry were absolutely F-lawless! This song was written by Neal Schon's father, so they wanted to do him proud and they certainly did!

[@montymcclellen1918]

Steve Perry is the goat

[@cindydd9030]

This is live..No auto tune

[@briandavidson1946]

Talk about it!!!

[@johnwebb167]

Auto tune wishes it could be Steve Perry. But never will

[@mark-be9mq]

Pretty impressive. Try anything off their Infinity album. Can't miss.

[@lilpoohbear653]

Unreal performance...live and no BS!!!! Powerful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks WolfHunters!!

[@lilpoohbear653]

Steve emotes from his toes to the top of his head...now that's singin yall...gorgeous and truly haunting

[@patricialehrke7688]

Best,most heartfelt comment ever:"My God,he can sing!" Yes indeed the man made me and the angels weep.

[@michaelhaynes6244]

I love me some Steve Perry, I would do anything for him as long as he sang while I did it, lol. There is a ton of songs by Journey to react to. I've never heard a Journey song I didn't like. Thanks for the reactions, ❤️✌️

[@paullewis7339]

Absolutely in a class by himself.

the real journey not that crap they sing now!

[@vickiadkins9844]

Masterpiece

[@sweet60]

Just stripped down, pure talent.

[@steev11]

You nailed it. Each band member is pulling their weight and then some. Each instrument and the incredible backup vocals are so on point. If that wasn’t enough, you throw Steve Perry into the mix and the song elevates into the stratosphere. They are unmatched.

[@tcconnection]

Came back to watch again, reason he's called "the voice."

[@rickrick1356]

No auto tunes here, kids. Love Journey! ❤

[@michaeldavis5610]

The "Voice,"... thanks for this one, and have a great day.

[@sooner4now]

Saw them live. Best most perfect concert ever. Flawless.

[@karlschmitt6359]

Please react to more Journey off their greatest hits cd. Separate Ways is a great banger from them, but any song you choose from their greatest hits will be a winner! Thank you!

[@marcieharreld286]

One of our greatest gifts from the Music Gods....Steve Perry and Journey!!!🎶🎼🎵🥁🎧🎹🎤🎙🎸🤘

[@RadioRoswellTV]

I saw this live in Philly in 1982 . I will never forget it . It was in my top 5 concerts of all time.

[@kurtsaxton823]

Also seen this tour in California, they were amazing.

[@cden409]

Wow 🤩 would have loved to see them in concert. I had babies to take care of and of course we had no extra money for squat.

[@Karen-qc2xo]

Unbelievable!! I thought he was the best singer of all...last part of the song his voice is beyond anything I ever heard!! Your rite like an angel!! His voice unreal!!!

[@marisolburgos8563]

Wooooooow, this is my favorite song by Journey. Thanks for reacting to this song!

[@Sighlense]

Steve Perry - often imitated, never duplicated. 🤘

[@lilpoohbear653]

Never!!

[@vanessa4u4evr]

That's what you call ANGELIC! Gifted and rare. Steve's voice is now studied in universities. His voice is considered to be an anomaly.

[@keithconnell8460]

People never talk about the rest of the band a whole lot, but Neil Schon was playing guitar for Santana when he was 16. It's Neil you see at the beginning of Black Magic Woman. Steve Smith is regarded by many as the GOAT rock drummer. There's always the argument of him or Neil Pert from Rush. You could do a lot worse than either of them. What makes Steve so phenominal is the fact that rock isn't even his first love. He plays jazz and other genres too. Jonathon Cain on keyboards is a fantastic song writer and keyboardist. Ross Valory is solid, sometimes great on bass. I think Perry was the magic piece they were missing. Once he joined the band it all came together. Greatest band in the world IMHO.

[@ericnelson7524]

You can NEVER go wrong with Journey whether classic or current!!

[@robertwalker1803]

The notes he hits at the end do not seem real…

[@Christatum411]

I was at this exact show (16 yrs. old) , was a great one

[@newfiemom8696]

They sound like an a orchestra! It was brilliant having Steve be in the center of them all belting out those 🎶 notes!

[@dannyjarrell9625]

Guys I swear was back stage and front at this concert. Driving limo for group that night. The memories back in the day. 🤗

[@branch42]

YOU HAVE TO HAVE PERFECT MATERIAL TO WORK WITH FIRST.....but who the heell mixed this live recording??????????? a master soundman, that is who.

[@karlmoles6530]

There were only two singers I practiced their songs to hone my voice when I was young. Steve Perry and Rob Halford.

[@randyqualls8743]

Was 3 rows back from the stage at this show, was an amazing concert

[@jimbojumbo5805]

I was there too...I would have been about 75 feet further back, on your right side...in the middle of the lower level seating. Man, what a great night that was!!

[@DennisSpitler]

You commented on the musicianship and are absolutely correct. They were all such accomplished musicians to begin with. Neil Schon played with Santana at age 16. Cain was with the Babys with multiple hits. Valorie was based in Rock/Jazz fusion. Then the voice....wow

[@roselaineabraham7774]

Steve Perry é único. Até hoje não apareceu ninguém que chegasse perto da potência vocal dele. Ele canta, ao vivo, mil vezes melhor do que em estúdio.. Chega a ser insano. A voz... 🤍🤍🤍💜💜💜

[@stephenparks6002]

I always say this on reaction videos: this song, the album recording,-was his FIRST TAKE! imagine that

[@glendirienzo1365]

Also, listen to Steve Perry's solo work. Phenomenal vocals.

[@ltrenum]

Not my favorite song of theirs but never fails to amaze. Perry is a vocal god and Schon brings out the song’s pain and tension masterfully. Great band.

[@vanderhoff80]

Steve without a doubt is fabulous! The rest of Journey was unbelievable. Neal Shcon was a beast at Gutar, Gregg Rolie key boards.

[@melodyszadkowski5256]

Great reaction. Next time you check it out don't cut off Jon Cain's piano solo off the end. It's gorgeous.

[@chebrneck]

why you all bobbin so much? I know you don't understand anything you just watched. very cringe

[@coachbigdawg41]

Check out journey Still they ride

[@rsw1227]

STEVE PERRY deserves ALL the praise he gets but I feel the whole band gets taken for granted. They all play for the song, not for their egos or to "flex" their abilities. This is especially true of Neal Schon's guitar playing. He is praised by other guitarist from different genres as a "musicians, musician." His playing is both technically flawless and his solos add another "voice" to the song. Not a surprise that he makes his guitar actually "sing." I read a long time ago, that he approached his guitar parts as if Aretha Franklin was singing them! That explains why each note he plays has meaning and not just a reason to play, just to play. It really has/adds emotion. There are MANY examples of his playing but check out an early JOURNEY song, "Of A Lifetime." This is the original version of JOURNEY before Steve Perry. They were more of a Progressive/Jam Band. It blew my mind as a young kid in the 70's & 80's, going to a record store and "discovering" this version of one of my favorite bands. I'm so glad I grew up without the internet. Ha!

[@dougdeshazo948]

It’s difficult because d5 and greater throughout the second part of the song. Can’t think of an aria that has that.

[@mjcole12]

Nice reaction! A bit disappointed the video you chose cut out the ending with the piano solo! The whole song is a work of art...it starts with a piano and ends with one! Cutting out the piano at the end of the performance is just like taking a Van Gogh painting and cutting the edges off of it so it fits in an old smaller frame instead of just getting a frame built specifically to fit it!

[@robbijohnson4614]

When they recorded this song for the album Escape Steve Perry sang this song in one take.

[@willemvanderwerff4569]

I don't care who you are perry live is better than the studio and no one can even come close to his vocal ability, having said that as a band they were unbeatable schon a legend in his own right but i think what a lot a people miss is how fantastic of a drummer smith is he blew the doors of that

[@89801wink]

If nothing else for yourself check out post Steve Journey with the drummer Deen Castronovo on vocals while beating the skins. Also incredible.

[@PaulJoeTX]

Yo Dawg hope you see this. Yo love Journeys vibe and bluesy jazz because a few of the guys left Santana when they were babies after Carlos Mentored them. They went and formed Journey. Neal Schon dropped out of high school and Santana asked him into the band. Schon was 15 and playing at Woodstock! 🤣🤣🤣🔥🔥🔥. Steve Perry was working on pops chicken farm. Mom made him fight for his dreams. Journey made the call to him. Bro i saw Journey at least 11 times. One of the groups i traveled to see!!! 70-80’s were fun and lit!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😎😎🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾

[@michaelschaeffer5322]

Im glad I grew up during this era . I was fortunate enough to be able to see this in concert live in Philadelphia. Looking at things today makes you appreciate what Steve Perry was back then . I love the 80’s Music we had so many wonderful bands back then to listen to . Generation X is the best my opinion

[@louiscarpenter1934]

I can agree 👍 I would like to add Paul Rogers as an honorary mention

[@dongracey343]

Love how yall break this song down, and it's done live! That's the kicker!!! Love

[@427IEI]

Recorded the vocal track in one take in the studio

[@chopperdeath]

Good lord who can play this live?!?

[@LSwick-ss6nm]

How about that note Steve hits at the end?

[@maryday8465]

Perry was and always will be the goat

[@MrIceman2307]

Steve said this was his most difficult song to sing...can see the energy spent on his face at the end of the song...EDIT: posted this before your reaction mentioning the same at the 3:30-3:40 mark. Great reaction!

Journey was my very first concert. 1986, I was 16, a senior in high school. They were amazing.

I was at this concert in Houston Tx MTV with 5 VJs was getting big and every Saturday night they broadcast a concert and they were there At this big arena in Houston Joel Olsteen has gigantic church and my wife and Daughter live in Houston area and I go down to visit we go to church there and always look where Journey was close my eyes and remember so much

[@darrenmiller6927]

Great band, they all really shine here. Steve Perry, amazing.
