For me, this is the BEST Survivor song ever: the lyrics, the melody, the message, the voice, the conviction - you can feel all this in this song! Jimi Jamison's rendition will always be outrageous, incomparable!

[@lehcaraz1]

I feel the same about Ever Since the World Began. Bickler did it first I think for the Rocky three soudtrack. Jimi did his own version for another Stallone film Lock Out. I wish I could buy a copy of Jimis version but the only one released any Survivor album is Bickler. Jimis version is just better. Jimi has a lower voice that can reach with power to the high notes in that song without going shrill and keeps the lower manly power as he goes. Bicklers is lighter, and a little less control when he hits the high nots. Tommy Shaw did a version later and the same thing. It is good and I love Shaw but his voice is also too high and loses the power and lower tone into the high notes that Jimi could carry.

My heart goes out to you and to your family, and I wish you all peace.

I saw the Jimi interview here on You Tube where he discussed his love of music and how he felt it was a higher art form than any other. He felt music touches a spot in a persons sould that nothing else can match. He couldnt imagine doing anything else with his life than singing. It was everything to him and you could tell that because every song he ever sang sounded like he wrote it and it came directly from his soul.

This is one of the most beautiful songs I've heard. Plus Jimi sing his soul out in this song. It's become another of his heartfelt songs that I also love only he could sing ❤️❤️ this song. He was not only an amazing singer who could really sing. This man was heart stopping gorgeous so talented. I so much miss you Jimi. Every highway leads me back to you. 2020 Cleveland Ohio loves Jimi jamison forever. I will always charrish you 💞💞🔥🔥💋💋.

Esta cancion en particular, siempre que la escucho, me hace llorar, y yo se porque, porque llega a lo mas profundo de mi corazon y del alma. Tambien por la voz angelical de Jimmi. Algo que no puede lograr la musica de ahora. Que privilegio el de haber tenido artistas como los de los 80s y sus canciones, en particular Survivor, Journey, etc

[@grecosandrino3784]

Yo tambien carino

[@hernanrivera1706]

Amiga, no eres la única que se emociona con esta canción, Jimi Jamison, Q.E.P.D,tenia una voz maravillosa, un encanto para interpretar, sin dudas, un verdadero artista, que nunca será olvidado por nosotros sus fans, que pena tan grande que se fuera tan joven, el mundo de la música, debería homenajearlo por su legado y por dejar tan hermosas melodias, tuve la suerte de verlo de cerca en el aeropuerto de Santiago de Chile, un tipo muy simpático y humilde, siempre se te extrañará jimi.

[@marcelosoto1030]

El gran Jimi con su personalidad humilde y carismática reflejó en su voz sublime lo que era. Gracias Jimi por tus interpretaciones en Cobra, Survivor y como solista. Tu legado seguirá intacto por siempre.

[@marcelosoto1030]

Les recomiendo la balada "lost" y el álbum "empires", gran álbum donde transversaliza el rock el hardrock y la balada rock, tremendo disco.

[@marcelosoto1030]

Por último, algo que se me olvidó, si es que no conocen la canción de survivor "ever since the world began" cuando el vocalista era Dave Bickler, escuchen la versión de Jimi... La interpretó magistralmente para la película condena brutal de Stallone, en ese momento me di cuenta que Bickler era cantante "solo" para el "ojo del tigre".

Jimi's vocals are out of this world here. God his voice can move you and take you away. Not too mention the stunning visual that he is. Just beautiful. Am I biased? Of course...there will NEVER be another Jimi Jamison ever...He was too SPECIAL. I still miss him every single day💔💔💔💔💔

"Now the road grows long, but the spirit's strong, and the fire within still burns..." that's my favorite part of that song. That was one of those songs that came at a time when I needed it.

80's....... best era ever

[@Verschlimmbesserung]

This is a masterpiece. I wonder why this band never struck mainstream popularity for what they really were...

[@Lemopalm]

They did.

[@litlredhen]

As I understand, it was partly poor promotion by one of their record labels.... Jim Peterik mentions that (& a lot of other interesting details) in his bio, "Through the Eye of the Tiger". I agree, so many of their songs (besides Eye of the Tiger) should have been even bigger. Luckily you can check out most of them here on YT, well worth the dive.

[@mariajoseavila2126]

Nunca se valoro a Jimi como se debía, pero, siempre recordaremos esa maravillosa voz, muchísimo mejor que las actuales, Viva la buena música !

[@aleloveboygeorgehernandezh5842]

Maria Jose Avila si sin duda era un grande de la musica y totalmente de acuerdo no como los q cantan ahora q ni son canciones por siempre Jimi Jamison

[@sachmo3]

A cool note from the liner notes of one of the greatest hits compilations - They had Jimi lay down the vocals first, expecting to do multiple takes - as is normal. However, after the 1st take, Peterik said "we're not getting a better vocal than that" so they went and put instruments around the vocals and that's a wrap!

[@crystalfreeman9295]

Wow Jimi was so good at what he did. He was a beast his voice was so amazing. I wonder if he ever knew how good he really was 😂😂. Knowone did it better than Jimi Jamison knowone. 2021 A Ledgen.
