I'm 55 and grew up listening to Journey and Steve Perry. Steve Perry is one of the greatest singers of all time. No joke.

[@karenurbanski5004]

Definitely

[@shawncovert751]

Steve Perry is one of the greatest voices of all times!

[@Katherine_02]

I'm 62 years old and I was in the Navy when I was 17 and stationed in Italy. Journey was at the height of their success. I remember thinking then how blessed I was to be alive and young during that time because surely music could never get better than this (rock was at its appex). Turns out I was right.

[@Life-findstheway]

So true,Miss. The music was amazing in that period

[@debortahwelch9298]

I saw Journey live. Can you imagine what it takes for a singer to continue with awesome vocals as he is running around on the stage through the whole concert? Steve Perry will always be my favorite male singer. " THE VOICE" of my generation.

[@wendyhowe2178]

Lead guitarist is the legend himself…Neal Schon. He’s still out there ripping that guitar to this day. Saw Journey live in 1983. There wasn’t a stadium they couldn’t sellout. Live in Houston 1981 they were in their prime here. Love watching a new generation discovering the music I heard as a teenager on my radio everyday. More Journey please…they are still my favorite band after 42 years.

[@DeAnne1233]

Always said his full name out loud, not unlike Dave Grohl. 👌

[@Winterwraith]

Couldn't agree more. I saw them in 1986 at the Cap Center, Md. my senior year in high school.

[@karenurbanski5004]

My favorite too. Saw many times

[@markb4188]

Steve Perry AKA “The Voice” is always amazing. I had the privilege to see them in concert three times and every time they sound as good as the album. One of the greatest bands of all time. Pick an album that has Steve Perry, then pick a song off of the album and you will not be disappointed. Great memories. 😁👍🫡

[@wesner326]

Great reaction! I saw them in the early 80’s. Amazing!

[@darlenecherbak4042]

Never watched you guys before. Couple of good dudes. Journey is probably my favorite band & Mr.Perry is hands down the best singer. Even Freddie Mercury said that - high praise.

[@kellymckinney9050]

Steve's solo work is worth a listen as well. Love seeing guys your age enjoying real rock, lol!

[@reneerocha1796]

It definitely is one of the most iconic songs ever. Steve Perry was phenomenal!

[@juliabuck8235]

Journey is amazing live! Need to listen to Stone in Love, Mother Father, Open Arms, Faithfully, Wheel in the Sky... Too many to list! I was only 10 when Steve Perry joined and never had the chance to see in concert because tickets always sold out😞

[@tombanaski3251]

No auto tune, no lip sync, just pure talent. I saw them perform this live in 1983-it was incredible

[@kimberlygrimm7007]

Steve Perry with Journey is the only Journey I listen to. Great reaction! Love what you said about the song, "You're born knowing this song"! Lol

[@richardwiley8964]

When I heard this song for the first time back in 1981 I would have never guessed in a million years that it would still be relevant over 40 years later. I agree it's a well-crafted, well-performed, and uplifting song and one of my favorite songs of all time. I saw Journey live in Charlotte back in 1985 and this 1981 Houston performance was not a fluke. I'd love to know why it resonates with younger people since this song is so anti-modern. It's a pretty simple mix, no drop, and you don't even get the main "hook" until very late in the song. As for the tank tops c'mon guys it was the 80's!! You would have been wearing them too!! You should def get some for your next Journey reaction.

[@Melanie220]

"When you're born, you come out knowing it." Yep. Definition of a real classic, and this song is almost beyond classic.

[@DR-mq1vn]

Live. Raw Talent. No auto tune.

[@lado6718]

Saw them live 5 times with Steve Perry. Nothing compares!!!

[@lindarumsey3109]

Journey had the best live band performances ever.

[@karenurbanski5004]

They really did!!

[@shariherman34]

I've seen Journey live...incredible, even better live than in studio. The next song from this same concert should be "Mother, Father". One of the best live vocals ever!

[@kimtalley4496]

You know it's a masterpiece when it's still a banger 40 something years later.

[@stevehamilton8824]

One of the best songs ever written and an anthem that still gives me chills to this day. Steve Perry will always be Journey! Live or album there is no denying the talent that is Journey. I saw Journey in the early 80's and there aren't many that can sound like the album the way these guys do.

[@philipogden4517]

YOUR VIEW IS GOOD👍👏CAN'T WAIT UNTIL YOU YOUNGLINGS MEET UP WITH ANGUS!!!! ANGUS!!ANGUS!! 22

[@user-ts6xn5mq8q]

As others have mentioned, the guitarist is Neal Schon. A tune I HIGHLY recommend is "Mother Father" from this same concert (Live in Houston - 1981)... Steve Perry hits notes at the end that will blow your mind, Neal Schon has a guitar-shredding solo, Jonathan Cain kills it on the piano, and Ross Valory (bass) and Steve Smith (drums) rock it as well. By the way, I had the good fortune of seeing Journey back in the Steve Perry era about a half-dozen times.

[@vinnolano]

When a went to the Meadowlands NJ show in 1981 and Steve was hitting these notes on every song i knew i was witnessing something special and extraordinary. And by the way at the Meadowlands show Neil the guitarist was hit in the head with a beer. We thought that the show was going to be terminated. Thank God it went on. Of all the shows ive seen that vocal performance was tops.Steve was at his peak.

[@marysmith7886]

Saw them 4 times in the 80s… always perfect! Steve contributed so much more than just his voice to that group! He actually constructed this song, leaving the chorus till the end.. His co-writers were asking..”chorus now?” ..Steve replied.. no not yet.. Make ‘em wait for it” 💞 The group is still out there, but they are nothing like they were with “The Voice” of #StevePerry 💞 Great review guys 😊

[@SueKay-rq1lr]

In the 80s Steve Perry could wear anything, and still be hot!

[@reneeheknowsmyname6771]

I've been a long time Classic Journey, and I'm very grateful to have seen them live in concert! Journey played in Houston, Tx in 1983 for their Frontiers tour. They had 3 sold out shows. 2 of which I attended and then I saw them again in 1986 for their Raised On Radio tour. And then for Steve Perry's first solo tour in 1994. Journey back then were amazing in concert! However, Steve Perry is a Great Showman!!! He and the band just makes you feel as if you are the ONLY ONE there!!! Steve is known for making the concerts so personal! Ex.....I know he did at the shows I went to. Where he'll asked the lightmen.....'HEY turn the house lights on, I want to see my friends!! Yeah, there we go!!' And then he'll point making you feel as if he spotted you!!! He's also know to do the 'search'!! Meaning he'll put his hand over his eyes like he's searching for you!! And as you heard, he likes to change the Detroit, to the city they're playing in! You just can't go wrong with any Classic Journey songs!!

[@sueharviel6510]

I love that you mouthed the words with Steve's vocals. It makes me happy to know that your generation knows the words.

[@jimbojumbo5805]

Fellas, I was at this concert in Houston back in November 1981. I was 13 years old, and it was the greatest night ever! The best concert I've ever been to.

[@sherylhenley1931]

Last year this song was inducted into the Library of Congress as a cultural icon-well deserved honor!

[@margarethampton-pope1508]

My first concert in the 8th grade in 1978. Journey will always be my all time favorite!

[@michelecarson2360]

Get to know Steve Perry. What a life story he has. And he is the GOAT, no contest. And the top he has on, simply the style of the Era, nothing more. I have seen him and this band live, electrifying!

[@joanfisher1079]

Guitar is Journey co- founder Neal Schon, a child prodigy guitarist who joined the Rock Band Santana at age 15 playing with legendary guitarist Carlos Santana. He and keyboardist and lead vocalist for many Santana hits Gregg Rolie founded Journey. Steve Perry was not the original lead vocalist for Journey. It was Robert Fkeischman. Steve joined the band in 1978. Escape and Dont Stop Believin waa released in 1981. The song wasn't the biggest hit off Of Escaie it took off almost 30 years later featured on the hit show the Sopranos and in the film Monster and just received entry into the Library of Congress for its songwriting and influence on pop culture. It is also the number one song download to I Tunes.

[@mikenastasi8927]

Robert Fleischman didn't sing on any Journey albums, just 1 or 2 songs on the 3 cd box set Time 3.

[@joanfisher1079]

@mikenastasi8927 I know. Dont think I said he was on any albums just Journey's lead vocalist prior to Steve. Technically, Rolie did sing on earlier recordings while performing keys. Thanks though for adding further clarification. RIP to George Tickner on his passing this week as a co founder and original Journey member.

[@idalucero1260]

Steve Perry joined Journey in October 1977

[@mikenastasi8927]

@@joanfisher1079 You had said that Perry wasn't the original singer, it was Robert Fleischman and Steve joined in 78. That's what I was trying to clear up. Even then, Fleischman wasn't with them very long.

[@garyatwood-mendez6465]

@@mikenastasi8927Gregg and Neal sang on the first three albums. The Fleischmann experiment was a no-go. The audiences hated him and he was swiftly replaced by Perry.

[@rustyhughes1372]

I’m so proud you guys know EVERY word to this song 👍. I have some friends that know most but not all the words. Great reaction guys!

[@vickyrobertson3166]

One of the greatest bands of all time. I also love Def Leppard and Bon Jovi. I grew up in the 80's. I think that was the greatest time for music.

[@tiffanytosh1569]

80’s rule!!

[@bintheredonethat]

I was in the concert biz back in the day and worked more than one show with these guys. Played them in softball once. Robert Fleischman almost trashed the speakers in my car while driving him to the airport from a party we'd been at. Those were the days... ;O)

[@meganstarling390]

Saw Journey 3 times. This tour was my 1st concert ever!!! Hollywood, FL 1981!!! ❤

[@reneleeper7296]

Saw Journey in concert in 1986. We were four rows from the stage and it was great!!

[@marilyndurham738]

I'm so happy you know this song already..❤

[@1crazyblondie]

Live performances from the 70's & 80's are phenomenal!!! 💕✌🏻🎶

[@balindayoung9771]

Kinda makes me sad this era is gone. Saw these guys twice when I was a teen along with so many others. Watching old live videos still gives me out of body vibes. I wish everyone could travel back in time to see one concert at the peak of rock. I couldnt even pick just one band to sum up the ultimate experience. Then again, it wouldnt matter... they were all legends in the making.

[@melodyszadkowski5256]

"You just come out knowing it." Love that one!

[@banksperdue1983]

i was born in 1965 so i grew up on this music and back in my day there was no auto tune or anything like that , you had to have real talent .

[@vaughnnewman8903]

I was fortunate enough to have grown up in the 80's and there was always something magical about Journey and the iconic and amazing voice of Steve Perry.

[@dcottrell6763]

i was actually at this show.. i didnt grasp the concept that id be watching it decades later.. but yeah, great show, great band.

[@RegenaCox-yy1rl]

You need to try out more Journey songs, his voice is phenomenal.

[@Eurynomea]

I was at this concert at The Sumit. My senior year in high school. They were 100% perfection. Blessed to have seen them many times.

[@jimmykinney4086]

Steve Perry is hands down, the greatest male voice of all time. There are others that are great also but nobody touches him. Watch the studio version & the live version back-to-back & see if they are not the closest sounding to each other compared to other studio/live versions.

[@ScorpioKing1]

I love your reaction....man it was killer growing up on this sound and in the 80's . We literally went from the darkness to the light in technology and the music was the greatest in the world 🌍.

[@darleneatkinson3906]

This song gets people out of any depressing mood that people might find themselves in uplift the human spirit that why it is so popular song great voice great guitar just all-around great song. I think almost everyone in U.S. A. heard it at least once. Me I heard it at least 1,000 times or more love this song and Journey the band we are on our own journey in this life that why it so relatable song. thanks for reaction video.

[@pegajense]

You should check out Mother Father live in Houston the vocal acrobatics are incredible!

[@johnny1968]

Neal Schon is the guitarist, and it is Stephen Ray "Steve" Perry

[@YouTooTube100]

He sound the same way live, I loved there concert many many moons ago.

[@yyzwdm]

I was fortunate enough to see this tour in Memphis, TN just a few days before this performance in Houston. It was the very first concert I went to.

[@michellejackson6679]

I was 15..the first time I saw Journey in concert.. My Mom made me go with my sister's b... he was 19 and a good Christian boy.. he hated the concert.. he loved Genisis... but he took the pill and took me to see Journey (my first time).. and he got thrown up on.... from the upper deck.. lol... the lead guiatarist is Neil Schon... Amazing guitar player.. I've heard he actually gave lessons to Eddie VanHalen

[@gladyswashington5171]

Journey "Lovin', Touchin', Squeezin'" is a damn good song.

Yup, saw them live decades ago, they were amazing.

If you really want to see the musical range of all of the band, watch “Mother, Father”. It will blow you away!

Saw them on the same tour but later, early 82. Fantastic concert! As for their clothes, that was the fashion back then. Careful, it could come back

Thank you for listening to some of the best musical talents ever. Thats how we listened to this music, bobbing our heads with our eyes closed at times, just getting lost in the music. Much success to you both.

one of the best voices...melting 😛💝🙌🙌🙌

[@rothed16]

My older sister was at that concert. Houston native. In one of the songs you briefly see her face😂. We would try to pause it back in the days so should could see, but it was next to impossible lol. Her fave band. Shes seen them probably 20x Neil Schon is an expectional guitarist. Not thought of as a Top 10 Great, but dude was above the curve and could really jam. One of my faves

[@pennyanderson3475]

More Journey live please!! In fact anything from this concert is fantastic.

[@juliestogner2542]

Seen Journey Three times...Steve Perry years. The whole band was fantastic 😍

[@eidetecker]

I saw this tour on Halloween night, 1981 in Mobile, AL; just a week before this show. Steve was wearing that same weird-ass shirt whilst the rest of the band wore Halloween regalia. High school was a blast that year, man.

[@bethhill2610]

I was 16 when this song came out. Best time to be a teenager.

[@psrandy1]

I saw these guys along with almost every group from the Beatles thru the mid 70s with Grand Funk and more than I can list. They LOVED DETROIT and Detroit in my days was the center for music, period. Motown started it going and IF YOU STUDY it you will see how many great groups/entertainers came from Michigan. Journey was NOT one of them but they L.O.V.E.D. DETROIT. In fact this song was written by Perry looking out of his hotel room in Detroit. He said he saw people below walking through the streetlights looking like shadows and it inspired him. The words to the song actually go "Just a small town boy, born in raised in South Detroit" (which FYI there is NO South Detroit, there is a area called Downriver)THEY WERE AWESOME. In my day we had great music, great entertainment. No Autotune, No great sound enhancements, NO back up tracks. You went out played your best and it wasn't correctable if ya F'D up. You had one shot at the songs. Mixing Board could only do so much. Just RAW AWESOME TALENT

This song was just declared the Most Popular Song of all time by Forbes

[@geneaikenii1092]

LOVED Journey back in those days. Still liking em today. And boys...hate to say it, but you are correct about the top. Many rockers wore ladies stuff, just because, usually it had more flair. I do believe that is a females blouse. Otherwise this was a wicked killer top notch live music video, as far as I'm concerned. Big shoutout from this old, longhaired, hippy dude in the mountains of East Tennessee. Thanks, guys. Peace. Later.
