Steve Perry - Foolish Heart (FIRST TIME REACTION)

[@jorgebrahim1565]

Steve Perry the best Malé voice ever no doubt about

[@gandawesley5870]

Steve Perry and Journey are by far the greatest vocalist and Band of all time.

[@suzannestivason2933]

LOVE THIS SONG

[@cyndigirl418]

The Voice! That Voice! Oozes so much soul! I love this song and this man!!!! Steve Perry! Thank you for sharing your God Given talent with the world! You are FOREVER Loved and appreciated! 💝💝💝💝

This was from Steve's first solo album, Street Talk released in 1984. He said that he loved making this because he could sing the songs that he wanted, in the key that he wanted, and the sound that he wanted as opposed to Journey songs. He can sing anything but r&b was his first love.

[@victorialw1]

What you just witnessed was Steve recording the actual studio version for this song. Steve walked out, sat down, sang his heart out, got up and walked off. Presto, the studio version was made. This song is off the same album as Oh Sherrie that he wrote for his girlfriend at the time. Oh Sherrie was not actually Sherrie's favorite song on this album. It was this song, Foolish Heart. If you are wanting a harder rock song like journey, you should listen to Strung Out on this same album.

What fools we mortals be. Love Steve Perry, super soulful singer. One of the all time best in popular music. Journey just wasn't the same for me without him. He brought that Perry magic, lol. Try "Girl Can't Help It" official video. It's a live performance by journey and one of my personal favorites. Much love from california.

[@luisalbertocalla6649]

Steve puede cantar cualquier cosa!!! Is the Best!!! ❤❤❤

[@jillmcilwain2633]

Oh yeah!! ❤ "The Voice", Steve Perry. Enough said! Peace J ✌ ☮ 💕

[@jeannieschmidt2217]

This is my very favorite from Steve's solo career. Just absolute vocal PERFECTION - harmonies and melody. Beautiful

[@billtaylor3382]

He did this song on one take!

[@Basai7]

You are spot on. Steve Perry "makes you want to sing." 🥰🎶👍🏻✨ ...so Sing! 💕

[@cassiehowder9782]

Love this song and the singer who is singing it. Stevie never fails to make you feel the song. ❤️❤️❤️

[@elizabethgari4909]

I love the look on your face as you truly enjoy and appreciate Steve's voice. Outstanding

[@sarastromseth-troy3323]

One of Steve Perry's biggest vocal influences is the r&b singer Sam Cooke. If you listen to Sam Cooke songs, you will hear how similar they sound (especially on the vocal runs). The 'Street Talk' album was released in 1984 and there are a lot of great songs on it. He had another solo album come out 10 years later, in 1994, called 'For the Love of Strange Medicine.' It was his final solo album until 2018, when he finally released 'Traces.'

[@marymarin3277]

Steve always makes it seem soo effortlessly!😁💥 He produced this album and I believe wrote most if not all the songs. He said he was very proud of this endeavor!♥️

[@johnfarmer7119]

The lyrics are special. The voice is special. Perfect combo for a hit! Thanks for your insite. ✌

[@jillmcilwain2633]

@John Farmer 🎶💕

[@snjezanasiklic8934]

I understand your appreciation for Journey but, this time I actually like that Steve's voice was in the forefront, followed only by that soft music...so the lyrics and his beautiful vocals have grabbed the full attention, without other musical distractions. Lovely song, it sounded very personal to him..

[@terricollins4657]

One of the many best vocalist 🥰 Don’t judge what you don’t know 🌺🌸🥰

[@pambroderick4275]

Steve Perry and Neal Schon did solo projects in 1984 while the band took some time off. The song “Oh, Sherrie” (written for his girlfriend at the time), was also on his “Street Talk” album, and it made it to #1 on the Billboard’s Rock chart. I love Foolish Hearts…Steve is so soulful!

[@LVAngel10A]

Love that you’re ALL IN for our STEVE !! 😜😜❤️ - Love Love that man

[@janebeatty9472]

The live footsteps tell you he actually sang the video.

[@donellefeltham]

Apparently he did this song in one take.Strung Out is also off this album, He really rocks that one out.🎼❤️🇦🇺❤️🇬🇧🕺🏻💃🎸☘️

[@polyprinz]

His voice….the best of the best! The man with the golden voice. Rock and Roll Hall of Famer!

[@denikennedy6675]

What can be said? A beautiful relatable song sung by a voice that makes you feel he understands. That's the voice of Steve Perry!! Thanks for your awesome reaction!! 💜🎵💜🎵

[@cden409]

Randy Jackson said “Steve can sing anything, he is very R & B based. I think he knows more about r/b than I know” (Randy)

[@TheDivayenta]

Randy would know as he played bass with Journey in the 80’s .

[@michels.chapman9882]

I love it at about 3:45 man's face totally goes blank and he seems to forget he's even doing a reaction video he is just zeroed in on the music. Not many people can do that in the music Steven though he can do that every single time two people

[@cnatview]

This song came out right after I got divorced. Whenever I would go out to "socialize", I would play this song on my way home.....just to remind myself. lol. Always like your Steve Perry reactions. Take care and be well, Hap. Peace.

[@astridruiz2310]

Steve Perry, la voz más linda del mundo❤❤❤❤

[@daniellaplume2006]

This sat so well on radio airplay. Cheers.

[@LillyMarz777]

Love this one.

[@gram5751]

Thanks for this reaction! Love your appreciation of Steve. Fortunately there are still alot of Steve/Journey songs as i can't get enough 🙂

[@robinmahan8814]

Ah! I love Steve Perry. Have you heard "You Better Wait" ? One of my favorites. I'm old school, lol. These days, it's Home Free and Steve for me. I really enjoy how you love good music. Thanks!

[@debra7105]

Thank you! Great reaction again Hap. Cheers to one of the greatest, purest vocalist I had the pleasure to listen to in my teens. And he is so handsome.

[@VUM.M]

Woohoo, that was smooth and also very touching. Kind of a tearjerker, but you can’t go wrong with a song sang by Steve Perry and the lyrics are special too. As you said, he’s wearing his heart on his sleeve and his voice complements it wonderfully. But to deliver the lyrics in that way, it was perfect that for this reason his voice was not so distracted from the instruments 🥰. It was obvious that this song was very personal to him but also very relatable to many I think . Fantastic song, but yeah, I also miss the JOURNEY Rock touch on it. Like your analysis to it. Thanks for this heartfelt reaction🥰🙋🏻‍♀️. Great choice Debra S. 😊

[@corazonyee7717]

I melt everytime in ready to share🎧

[@xScooterAZx]

Neil Shon of Journey is on guitar there. You can see him.

[@reneeheknowsmyname6771]

Steve made this video in ONE TAKE!!!! His very first solo album 'Street Talk' is a great album, all songs are great! One of my most favorite from it is 'Captured By The Moment'. It's a song about music artist, public figures, who were takin' from us! There's no official video, but the words are amazing!! Also from this album, 'She's Mine, Go Away, Strung Out (just may surprise you!!) and Runnin' Alone!' Well heck! Again every song!!...lol...

[@korinalacount2664]

Listened to Steve Perry all afternoon,in front of my fireplace,listened on a record on my record player,playing with my 2 doxies,perfect afternoon,now a end to a perfect evening for me,thanks Hap,such a beautiful,beautiful voice!And yes I sang along to every word while listening to this

[@gandawesley5870]

Steve Perry and Journey is all I listen and sing. Greatest of all time.

[@melissaphillips3088]

[@connie5663]

My opinion some of the best music Steve ever made was this time. His solo career , he showed the real Steve Perry . And what a gift and talent we would have missed if he hadn’t showed us. I have street talks and ftlosm albums. Love Him 🎶🎤🎼❤

[@sumerfluffy]

[@Basai7]

[@peggydawson3453]

[@paolasin05]

Steve song never gets old🤘🏼

[@katg6325]

Such a great song. When I can't sleep at night, I listen to this song on my I-Pod. The music is so soothing.

[@cindybentlyewski8384]

This is a beautiful song with meaning

[@juanitaduval9856]

Nice song

[@daniellaplume2006]

Foolish, foolish heart

[@Mary-cz8pf]

He had a lot of great songs from his album. I wish someone would do a reaction to strung out. Also captured by the moment is good also. That song would surprise you because he uses a different tone. You'd never guess it was Steve Perry singing

[@cden409]

1984 solo album Street Talk and solo album 1994 For the Love of Strange Medicine is a great album Hap

[@DavidSingerSongwtr]

Oh Sherry was his first single off this solo album and number one.

[@dawndipierro9557]

Saw Steve on his solo tour in 94/95 3 times on his FTLOSM tour. He didn't tour for Street Talk in 84.

[@williamfisher8239]

Street Talk was a homemade to both Steve's love of Motown and R&B and his former band Alien Project. Alien Project was going to be signed to a label contract and sadly just prior to that signing the guitarist and vocalist for the band was killed in a motorcycle crash. So, Steve wrote this record quickly and teamed up with old friends and session musicians to get back to his toots and love if the R&B and Motown sound.

[@patriciatolliver4057]

Patty-The reason he did it that way is because he was paying homage to Perry Como a singer from the late 40's early 50's. He admired the man's singing style. He also admired Sam Cooke a great deal.

[@nanner3200]

I know the song. I know the words. Did I know it was him? I don't remember. HA! I did not know he went solo during the Journey days so probably just thought it was one of their songs?

[@lydialeija2427]

"Foolish Heart" by Steve Perry was released in 1984, while he was still with Journey. ❤ I love this Song, especially since since Steve Perry honesty sings about the very real 'struggle between our heart and mind.' Although this has probably not been Scientifically proven, there is a Higher Source of Conviction. A Biblical Scripture inspired by our Heavenly Father, Jehovah God, states: "The heart is more treacherous than anything else and is desperate. Who can know it?" (Jeremiah 17:9; Psalms 83:18) Whom would know us better than the one whom created us? TY. 🙂🙏🙏🙏

[@tammyf.7864]

Hey, Hap! Steve Perry sang in a mostly-R&B style before joining Journey. And if you want to hear him rock an R&B-style song with Journey, watch the video for "I'll Be Alright Without You" here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/npuydpp6pdWXbM0 (And yep - that's Randy Jackson on the bass. Also, Neal Schon plays guitar in a bluesy, R&B way during this song.) Also, Steve Perry's musical hero was the R&B singer Sam Cooke. Listen to a few of Sam Cooke's songs such as "Cupid," "You Send Me," or "Another Saturday Night," and you can certainly hear that influence in Steve's voice. Through Steve in this song "Foolish Heart," you can really, really get that Sam Cooke vibe.

[@lisalockwood7095]

Check out his new album it's amazing

[@sandyhutzler9799]

Beautiful! play more with “journey “ and Steve Perry. “Open Arms” is only one of great songs! WATCH video!

[@terricollins4657]

You crack me up!!! Yeah Try Star Spangle I Banner please and thank you 😊

[@patriciahopkins99]

Have you given Brooks & Dunn “neon moon” a listen?

[@khishalalfitrah437]

how are u brother alipers here please react new song alip ba ta SEPUR TUA(OLD TRAIN) INFECTED CT43 🥰☕🇮🇩

[@sarahm.5356]

I love this song and your reaction. I want to share my theory with you. I think Steve Perry was a big fan of the singer Bobby Caldwell. Bobby had a big hit in 1977 called "What You Won't Do For Love". I think Steve Perry consciously was inspired by it when he wrote "Foolish Hearts". In fact there's another song on that Bobby Caldwell album that sounds like a different song on Street Talk. Anyway, this is the video for "What I Won't Do For Love." Even the videos are similar. m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/eWm8YYaQp7WXjpI

[@karolyn8644]

What a marvelous voice, one of the best, in my opinion. The title reminds me of a song from the soundtrack of my youth, My Foolish Heart, another beautiful song, this one from the 1950s. Would you be willing to react to the version by Billy Eckstine? I adored his voice back in the day & still do. Everything he did is worth a listen. Many singers have covered it. Jose Feliciano gave it a wee bit of Latin flavor, and Cliff Richard just sang it very sweetly. Here's a link to the classic Eckstine version: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hZa2n59sjt5sZrM

[@deborahkessel489]

Try strung out that was a good song

[@lancethompson218]

Steve perrybis the greatest singer in rock history...unfortunately this record did nothing to prove his greatness. Boring bland production. Underwhelming (for Steve vocals) listen to frontiers and raised on radio and be BLOWN away. Escape is unbelievable. His earlier works virtually any of his stuff smokes this.
