[@vincechampion3031]

Mother Father from this concert is absolutely amazing. His voice on this song is magical

[@marykay3489]

His voice is one of the best!❤

[@mariedelgado1613]

You will love all journey songs with Steve Perry this is one of our favorite songs he’s the voice we weren’t even born yet . Our parents got us into journey we are happy they did all journey songs but only with Steve Perry he was the first lead singer and that’s how journey got so famous.

[@timturk]

A man singing has made me cry. There is no other voice like his in this realm. Angels do walk among us.

my all time favorite LOVE SONG EVER OPEN ARMS PURE PASSION

[@wendyhowe2178]

My favorite band since 1981! Always and forever!❤️

[@marshabailey1121]

Vocal perfection; Always. Steve is one of a kind.

[@cweefy]

Yep. They were this good. Saw it live for myself.

[@lindabergman3127]

Yep outstanding

[@sharonpate5481]

During this time period bands had to be able to perform live and sound as good as their records. There wasn’t a big production with pyrotechnics or fancy lighting or auto tune. Tickets were cheap (I paid $7.50 to see Bad Company!) so a lot of us got to see live performances. What a time to live through 💜👵🏼✌🏼🌻

[@andreadeamon6419]

Most i paid for a concert ticket in the 80s was $21.50 Bullet boys Winger Cinderella Bon jovi One hell of a day!!

Singing from his heart n soul😢😂❤❤❤❤

[@karenp5333]

That is what Freddie called him

[@sylvialopez5928]

[@mandymac74]

Steve Perry was known as “the voice”. His voice was just incredible. Which is the reason it is still appreciated 40+ years later😅

[@patticampana9458]

I have seen them in concert 8 times. Wish you could have been there. Quite an experience! Nice to watch someone that has taste! Keep on rockin'! 🙂✌️

[@jackielawrence1451]

JMBOY TV you are lovely. Keep going buddy! Your smile is brilliant!!!

[@AliasMark69]

Well JM, you're learning why Steve Perry ranks among the Greatest Male Rock Vocalist Of All Time. His voice has put chills down the backs of thousands who saw this band live. Combine that with Neil's Guitar Mastery and the awesome keyboards and drum/bass.... They take you on a "Journey" each time.

[@philobeddoe8342]

Dublin California, 1982: Jr High dance, this was the song I asked my crush to dance to. Seriously sweaty palms, but it was great.....👍

[@stevefoulston]

The best love it. Peace out.

[@AliasMark69]

This is how they became rock legends. Journey - Wheel in the Sky (Official Video - 1978)

[@mandarinlearner]

You need to see the entire Journey live in Houston video. Its a masterpiece of live performance

[@michellejackson6679]

Can't even count how many times I was blessed to see this live in concert... better than the records... Steve Perry and the whole band just Had The It Factor.. Brings me back to being 16... thank you.. love it. Yes I'm old... lol

[@michellejackson6679]

Oh and another thing.. they wrote their own music ... Hair bands you can make fun of all you want but the good ones were so talented.. If you love this one... and Journey is my fav.. check out Poison.. Something to Believe In and Every Rose has it's Thorn. Great music

[@andersgranstrom7128]

Probably the best rock-band ever!!😍More, please!? Check out "Mother, father" from the same concert!! Amazing!

[@grandmarshal7539]

The Journey rabbit hole!

[@user-pz3wm7jp1z]

One of the greatest vocalists ever! I remember Mariah Carey saying she used to practice to his tracks. Amazing power and range

[@lindabergman3127]

Wow

[@scottpetty8934]

You want to hear his range ? Then check out Mother / Father from the same Houston show .Simply AMAZING vocals !!!.

[@Joseph-bq4xv]

This was my older sister and brother in law's wedding dance song.. 40 years ago!!

[@AliasMark69]

And several thousand more couples.

[@kristiefreeman5177]

Steve "The Voice" Perry!! Best voice, in my opinion. You don't just hear him sing, you feel it!

[@cog4life]

Love some Journey!! 😊this is one of my most favorite love songs..

[@caseyb4425]

My husband always takes great joy in reminding me that he was in that crowd when this video was filmed.

[@caseyb4425]

@PerrySteve HAHAHAHAHA Slide back into the swamp you crawled out of 😆

[@angelajames7917]

Every song from this concert is amazing! Please watch their official music video for "Faithfully" showing scenes from their tours around the world. I was lucky enough to see them live in the 70's and early 80's in DFW. Unmatched vocals, lyrics, and intrumentals!

[@pegajense]

This song still gives me goosebumps ❤ Please please check out Mother Father live in Houston and Wheel in the Sky live in Osaka

[@patriciatolliver4057]

Patty-I suggest Raised on Radio and When You Love a Woman. Ones fast beat, and the other is mellow. Shows his diversity in a big way. I'm a devoted Journey. So your selections make my day.

[@SnarkyLady]

My man died of covid Nov '21. He sounded JUST like Steve Perry. Used to sing this to me & oh Sherry 😢 -Cheri 🕊️Tony

[@kevincaulder20]

Just came by to check your channel. Must say that your evaluation of the band was thoughtful and very considerate for a first time listener. Two of my favorite songs by Journey include ILL BE ALRIGHT WITHOUT YOU and THE GIRL CAN'T HELP IT from the last album from their 8o's run called Raised on Radio. Hope to come back and catch more of you as your channel grows. Keep going

[@Just_Klaatu]

Steve’s biggest influence was “Sam Cook”.

[@AliasMark69]

In the 70's-80's I earned a lot of money, most of it spent on cars, women, music, concerts and always dining at the best restaurants with whoever I was with. This song in my 68 Camaro with "Danita" (6' blonde) has sweet memories

[@laraismyname821]

Aw...this gives me elementary school slow dance song flashbacks. Can picture it now: standing in a gym w/ my arms on the guy's shoulders & his hands on my waist---with about 2.5 feet of space between us while we both just rock back & forth from foot to foot--bc we were in elementary school & didn't know how to dance + touching boys/girls was still icky then. 🤣

[@lauraallen55]

Music video for Faithfully, live of Lovin' Touchin' Squeezin', But, yeah, Faithfully is killer. Steve was the GOAT! You're in awe of his voice? We all are lol! Like you said, no matter where he was in his range, he sounded perfect, clear, accurate and powerful. No one like him.

[@emmahowells8334]

Always loved this song, such a beautiful love song. Other Journey songs i highly recommend are, Positive Touch, I'm Cryin, Walk like a Lady (live version), Lovin Touchin Squeezin, Castles Burning, Mother Father, Line Of Fire, Dixie Highway, Suzanne, Edge of the Blade, Girl Can't Help It, Chain Reaction, After The Fall, La Do Da, Lay It Down, Sweet & Simple. All awesome songs I think you'll enjoy. 😎🎸👌

[@barringtongilbert9230]

When you look at the world from an open perspective...you realise....the only thing that seperates us through skin colour is politics. Music has no colour....sport has no colour....so good to see people taking art for what it is and NOT due to colour or culture. God bless you mate from a 65 yr old in the uk. xx

[@ZacCostilla]

I think you’d love his solo single “Oh Sherry”. He gave up touring and songwriting for over two decades before he got back into music. (Edited to get my facts correct)

[@aprilroy6437]

Steve Perry never married. He and Sherry broke up. She is still alive. Steve only found out he had a daughter when she was around 13 years old. He gave up music because he was not feeling it in his soul anymore. His mom passed away and that affected him greatly.

[@ZacCostilla]

@@aprilroy6437 my bad… I know he lost someone he loved. I’ll fix my comment to avoid confusion. Thanks.

[@JOHNNYSGIRL1960]

Please do more Steve Perry solo music like the song "Oh Sherrie" and "Strung Out." Also Clay Aiken with "Without You" and "Measure of a Man" and "Invisible", among others.

[@animalunleashed3812]

Give "Oh Sherry" a listen. Another love song that shows off his power. (Not sure if it's listed under Journey or Steve Perry though.) The video version is fun. :)

[@brendaclark8344]

It's from Steve's first solo album along with Foolish Heart, another good song.

[@bella-xp7qd]

Back then as previously stated they sounded like the records. It was because they could sing without computers, not like today. You go to shows nowadays they don't sound like the record. I work at an amphitheater see about 20 shows a season. Can tell the difference from older groups to the present day groups.

[@Almcingrid3663]

This song came out my Sr year. It got my 1st and me back together.

Imagine the Ladies in the clubs when this song got played, I was there so I don't have to imagine. I must have danced with a couple dozen each night in those days.

[@georgewallerlll496]

If you haven't already, you should check out the video for "Any way you want it" by Journey! It rocks, and great musicianship!

[@dougwill8850]

With you being from Houston like myself, this was recorded in 1981 at what was then called The Summit which is now Joel Olsteens Lakewood Church.

[@AliasMark69]

So the place went from Heaven to Hell.

[@dougwill8850]

@@AliasMark69 yes. Lol

[@tomsilk1235]

Saw them live in Lincoln Nebraska in the early 80’s. Bryan Adams opened. Consider reacting to Journey’s live version of “Still they Ride”. IMO, it’s the best of their live performances

[@michaelasay8587]

I saw them that year with the great Joan Jett and Loverboy!!

[@LonghopeBro-ju6jl]

Steve Perry’s vocals are great, and he deserves all the praise he gets, but don't overlook the guitar player, Neal Schon, the heart and soul of the band. When they were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Steve Perry said (paraphrasing), Neal's not just a guitar player, he's an entire string section. I went to school with him, so I'm prejudiced. I remember when he dropped out of school at 16 and turned down Clapton's offer to join Derek and the Dominos because he'd already committed to tour with Santana.

[@patrickvecchio8138]

Steve Perry might be the greatest rock vocalist ever.

[@timfrazier7589]

Steve perry and Bob Seger are the best male voice of all time 😂😂🎉🎉

That T-shirt. All of us preteen and teenagers dreamt about it at night lol. OK maybe it was just me but I know it was not

[@AliasMark69]

I first had you do "Separate Ways" knowing you would become hooked on the band, I sometimes feel like your Pusher Man getting you more addicted to Classic Rock, but I make no apologies, you seem to tolerate it well enough..... I smile again.

[@LoriandBrock99]

You have to do “Faithfully”. Please!!!
