Steve’s voice is so clean and clear. He could teach angels how to sing!! My all time favorite singer 🔥🔥🔥 you should do a reaction to Strung Out by Steve Perry - his solo music.
Winds of march from infinity will blow your mind. Steve's voice is like no other which is why he was dubbed " The Voice". The chemistry of journey with Steve per their musical greatness is undeniable.
You can pause and rewind Steve Perry as much as you want, in my opinion! I don't mind hearing his vocals over and over again. I was just watching a short concert Steve did with The Eels in 2014, when he was 65, I believe. He sounded better, even at that age, than most of the "singers" you hear on the radio today 🎶🎵
Never apologize for needing to appreciate this stuff by backing up! It's AMAZING. World class talent right there. Blew most everyone outta the stadium.
Steve wears a tenner jacket in some of journey older concerts. I've told many many people who do reaction videos to listen to the latest songs from Steve Perry "I NEED YOU!!!!! "IN THE RAIN!!!! "YOU BELONG TO ME!!!! These songs were made for a woman Steve Perry was deeply in love and she passed away from breast cancer and she had Steve make her a promise that he would sing again for his fans. Steve voice sounds raspy BUT he has mastered the sound just like Eddie Van Halen mastered feed back. Steve voice is bone chilling in these songs because you can feel and hear the pain in his voice
You feel about Steve Perry's voice as I feel about Steve Perry's voice. It's fun watching someone experience it the way I first did years ago. It's truly magical and there's no one specific thing in music that I like better.
This is probably my favorite Journey song now. Love the melody, lyrics, harmonies and Steve's killer vocals (and hair). When I hear these older songs by them I find myself saying...oh, I remember this song. That was Journey?!
I still get goosebumps listening to The Voice! And this song is my very favorite from Journey. They may be singing about the SF bay (originally it was about LA, but they changed it), but "the bay" I think about is the Monterey Bay. I'm from Santa Cruz, and am super homesick!
@@dana_brooke_27 What do ya mean by "outrageous"? Was he being goofy and silly? Tell me all about it. (I LOVE that guy, but never got a chance to see him in concert. 😥)
He didn't exactly quit the band. He had to have hip replacement surgery because he had injured his hip while hiking in Hawaii getting ready for the "Trial by Fire Tour" in "97" He wanted and asked the group to postpone the tour until he recovered from his hip replacement surgery. Neal Schon "supposedly" talked the band into seeking out a "sound alike" Steve Perry to go forth with the Tour! I thought that was a pretty crappy thing to do (if it's true)! They could have waited like Def Leopard did for their drummer! They still had to wait for Steve Augeri (the new lead singer to learn not just the new songs but the whole Journey catalog up to that point!) So, why couldn't they wait for Steve Perry to recover? I LOVE Journey and LOVE Steve Perry! The whole situation upsets me because I am such a HUGE FAN! Of course I may have the wrong info according to all the Stones magazines, Hollywood gossip, hear say, etc...etc... I do however respect the fact that Arnel Pineda (the new lead singer of Journey) HIGHLY RESPECTS Steve Perry.
Treat yourself and watch 'Mother Father' from the 1981 Escape Tour in Houston. Best live performance I've ever seen. The notes he hits at the end are otherworldly.
I’m so so so happy you are reacting to early Journey. This song is the ringtone on my phone! I love love the Infinity and Evolution albums. This is 1978. On repeat in my car everyday. React to Sweet and Simple...one of my absolute favorites.❤️
Wendy, you have excellent taste! Totally agree with you...the Infinity and Evolution albums are just so awesome. "Sweet and Simple" is a prime example of the range, the honesty, and the emotion Steve gave us back then. If I come across a time machine that can take me back to those early days of Journey with Steve, I'll let you know!
Jimbo Jumbo thank you!! I’ve been a diehard Journey fan for 40 years. I never tire of their amazing, one of a kind music. Steve Perry’s voice is liquid gold. I’m still crushing on him!❤️ I would love to go back in time and hear them for the first time. I consider myself among the lucky to grow up listening to them.
@@wendyhowe2178 Believe me....I completely understand your thoughts about Steve. I've had a man-crush on Steve since the late 70's. You and I are absolutely among the lucky ones who grew up with Journey albums, as they were being released. What a time to be a teenager!
This is one of my very favorite Journey songs & I have listened to it probably a million times, but seeing you react to it for the first time is the best! You have very good taste, Twon!
Lights was the very first song I ever heard from Journey!! And that was a looonnnngggg time ago!!.....lol.... And I've been a long time fan ever since!!
@@kgunitkeese17 Yesss!! Another great one! Mannn Steve managed to changed my top male singer almost instantly when I really sat down and listened to him! Thank you Quarantine!! Lol!
@@tamerarudy6334 I'm sure you have heard Steve Perry latest songs well their a couple years old, but the 3 songs from Steve is absolutely beautiful and bone chilling because you can feel his pain first song which is my favorite new song for my wife of 34 years "I NEED YOU!!!! "IN THE RAIN!!!! last but not least"YOU BELONG TO ME!!!! These songs are for a woman who he was very much in love with passed away from breast cancer in the early 2000s. She asked Steve to make her a promise that he would sing again for his fans just before she passed away 😔
Yes sir. Journey is one of my fav's too. I loved our teen years. WE HAD THIS. I saw them in 79. They and all of the bands back then WERE SO GOOD LIVE. SO MUCH TALENT. WHERE DID IT GO?
Twon you've got to see the video "You Better Wait" from Steve's second solo album "For The Love of Strange Medicine" with Paul Taylor and guitarist Lincoln Brewster. His voice is incredible as always, and his hair is the longest we've ever seen it...beautiful, all the way down his back just gorgeous!
Oh my god…the 80’s! You have no idea the feelings that decade of music stirs up in me! Thank you youngest son! 😉 …and I love your reaction to this and knowing you love Steve and all of this music too. 🎶
This album, my favorite album by Journey (Infinity), plays as one song...best listened to that way, from Lights through to Opened The Door. Each song flows into the next.
I met a guy from San Jose while visiting my grandparents. All he talked about was Journey. He'd been seeing them at Fairs. This was before this album came out. He'd say "You gotta hear Steve Perry." He'd write every letter about Steve Perry. Finally the album "Infinity" came out he bugged me to buy it immediately. It blew me away.. I've been a huge fan ever since.
I have much love and respect for you because you are good people and you know great music when you hear it and you being as young as you are. I'm from Houston and was at those live journey concert in the early 80s. I know of many many other bands from the 80s that you would appreciate beings you have a good ear when you hear good music. You really need to listen to Steve Perry latest songs called 'IN THE RAIN!!!!! "I'm NEED!!!! Which is a song i dedicated to my wife. And last but not least "YOU BELONG TO ME!!!!!!! His voice sounds raspy BUT he has mastered it like Eddie Van Halen mastered feed back and make it sound great. These songs were made for a woman who he was in love with passed away from breast cancer in the mid 2000s. She asked Steve to make a promise that he would sing again for his fans. These songs are bone chilling because you can feel the pain in his heart while singing them. 🤜🏾🤛🏼 ✌🏾✌🏼💜💜💯💯
"Many colors of the spirit. Many lives below the sun. We are colors of the spirit. We are many, we are one." That we are ONE I can see by your reaction and by your words. Exactly the same as mine 😀😀😀 love it ❤
Stand up, rewind, play it on a loop. WHAT'S WRONG WITH THAT!!! I do that all the time! If I find something new or an oldie that comes to mind. Led Zeppelin, my all time favorite band. So don't apologize when you feel a song!!!!
Twon, don’t worry about going back to listen again- We watch Journey and Steve’s videos, over and over. Love them great talents. Thank you for playing it. CD
#NoLimitNation! 🔥 This is their love song to their home base: San Francisco. It is very special to everyone who has lived there, too, including me.. 💪🏾👊🏽😎
Love your reactions to journey this was my favorite album of theirs and their first one at that. I think I might of saw a comment where someone called your jumping out of your chair the “Journey Jump” and fitting at that 😂❤️😎👍🏻
Greatest comment I ever saw. Interview with Freddie Mercury, he was asked how it feels to the greatest voice in rock? Freddie’s response “You didn’t tell me Steve (Perry) was here also”
So refreshing to see young people enjoying Journey!! I saw them live at the fabulous LA Colosseum (twice!) with Loverboy as their opening act, Steve Perry live is a religious experience.
Steve Perry is in my top 5 greatest voices ever…the other 4 are, in no particular order, Brad Delp of Boston, Robert Plant of LZ, Bob Seger & Paul Rodgers of Bad Company…I’d really love to squeeze John Fogerty of CCR in there as well🖤🖤
