Lyrics: Just a small town girl Livin' in a lonely world She took the midnight train goin' anywhere Just a city boy Born and raised in South Detroit He took the midnight train goin' anywhere A singer in a smokey room The smell of wine and cheap perfume For a smile they can share the night It goes on and on, and on, and on Strangers, waitin' Up and down the boulevard Their shadows Searchin' in the night Streetlights, people Livin' just to find emotion Hidin' somewhere in the night Workin' hard to get my fill Everybody wants a thrill Payin' anything to roll the dice Just one more time Some will win Some will lose Some were born to sing the blues Oh, the movie never ends It goes on and on, and on, and on Strangers waitin' Up and down the boulevard Their shadows Searchin' in the night Streetlights, people Livin' just to find emotion Hidin' somewhere in the night Don't stop believin' Hold on to that feelin' Streetlight, people Don't stop, believin' Hold on Streetlights, people Don't stop believin' Hold on to that feelin' Streetlight, people
All about the spirit, know many people pushing 60 and still cool, hell, my mom is turning 51this year and it's the coolest metal head woman I've met 😎 keep rocking on
My mom lost her battle against cancer.... but i keep believing in a day that the disease will be curable. But also keep believe in yourself! You are all blessed !!
Sorry to hear about your mom dude. My mother died back in 2012 with Ovarian cancer and this song was one of her favourites I tear up nearly every time I listen it. Stay strong mate! ♥️
@@paparoach007 damn..... im sorry to hear that.... it is a horrible experience that you need to go trough.... i hope you doing well now keep your head up buddy :(
When I heard this in college, I was not a city boy born raised in South Detroit. Yet this song resonated with me. I could imagine "....taking a midnight train going anywhere. Hanging out in a smokey room with a smell of wine and cheap perfume." "It goes on and on and on and on....". Don't Stop Believin' !!!
My mother passed away today due to pancreatic cancer, Journey was her favorite band. she used to sing this all the time it reminds me of her Thankfully we got to see them live before she passed. RIP mom
I'm so sorry for your loss. It was my mother's favorite song too, she passed 15 years ago. It reminds me of good times with my mom, remember those wonderful times with your's. 😊🙏🏻
My friend just recently passed away, we're only freshmen in high school. He was taken too soon, but he loved this song. I remember when we were in band together one year and he was so excited when he found out that we were going to play this song. I'll see you again someday, Christian.🕊
The Soprano!!! That ending changed everything on me now that I listen to this beautiful song again. You never know where or when your life is gonna ends so just don’t stop believing!!!
@Rachel L. Gore Yes & no. Record labels have never existed to "help" artists achieve financial goals. It's always been about how they can turn a profit by investing in bands they believe give them the best shot to do this. Thus, only a small percentage of artists ever made their money from album sales since labels kept most of it to recoup the costs of distribution and promotion. Some bands even ended up dirt poor despite having massively successful singles, etc. Artists have always made most of their money from touring and live shows--unless the label took that too. With the internet, bands can remove the middle-man and self-promote. With TH-cam bands can release music and keep all the ad revenue. They can also sell their music on itunes and Amazon for a fraction of what labels would take from them. For the first time in history we're seeing bands find success completely without the need for a record label. So, with 163+ million views, I'm guessing Journey is still making money on this song because of this channel.
I'm old. I remember when this song came out. It was just another decent song at the time. I NEVER could have imagined it would have such a resurgence after all these years. I never would have imagined that it would play every single day on the radio 40 years later and that our kids would even be listening to it. Journey was WAY ahead of their time with this one.
You are right who would have known that journey would make such an impact today 💘 Steve Perry and your not old just getting better just like 72 year old me
My music teacher in middle school was scary and demanding, but world class. When I was in 5th grade she told us to go home and listen to this song, we’re gonna be playing it for pep band. I’ll never forget going home and really listening to it for the first time that night. Music never made me feel like that before, and I’ve never stopped chasing it ever since. She died a few years ago, but I’ll never forget her. Can’t comprehend how greatly she impacted my life. Good teachers are an incredible blessing. So is this song.
This hits me hard because in my 6th grade year I had amazing teachers and they really worked hard to provide a healthy education for me and my classmates. In 7th grade however, my teaching experience greatly decreased in quality. I was very heartbroken but they actually ended up being amazing once I got about 2 months into 7th because they started having us do more soul healing and I realized that they were awesome all along and it was my view that they were not as good just because I had certain standards. Thanks for this song. We did song lyrics in 7th grade and they're meanings. I wish that we did this song. It is really beautiful.
Good music isn't hindered by any borders. Happy to hear one of my (american) favorites has reached the other side of the world. This was one of my favorites at your age, too! I think it will be for many more years... Edit: finally fixed a spelling error
My dad is visually impaired and lost his toes at a very young age. He thought he would live the rest of his life alone with no companion. Until he met my mom and she loved him for who he is. Married 36 years and now he has kids and grandkids. Don’t stop believing (:
Thank you dad for introducing me to the Sopranos. Although we never got to watch it together, I know we will be able to talk about it together in Heaven.
Believe me dude, eventually, all these memories will make you better, stronger, smarter... It's funny, but losing someone does really help to improve your life. It makes you think about everything you lost and how you can improve for the future, so you never take things for granted ever again. The beginning is rough, thou, so hang in there, it might take a while, but one of the greatest feels you will get is to remember things with joy, and a smile about how good it felt, and how great things are now thanks to that one person. I know right now it might feel like everything sucks... But believe me, this bittersweet emotion eventually will evolve in something wonderful. She or he never really leaves, it stays there, helping you to become better and better... One day, you'll do the same for someone else.
Here after running the Chicago Marathon in Oct 2024.... This was the music playing for the last mile that gave me that second wind to finish in 3hr 29... Thanks Journey 🙌🙌 DONT STOP BELIEVING
Lost my best friend recently. He was 22 and was raised to this music,lost both his parents very early but yet he was the Happiest most positive human ive ever met. Ill never encounter another soul like his. I imagined growing old with him & it fucks me up. Don't stop believing. Rest in peace Joshua 💙
Damn,that sucks and I know that that is a huge understatement but just like the song says "don't stop believing" and I really hope that you get better and DONT STOP BELIEVING

It's now says he took a midnight train going anywhere. Pass has been rewritten. Don't believe me though. Push play and hear for yourself. He took the midnight train
@@gun2424 the lyrics now say he took a midnight train instead of she. The studio recording somehow defied the Continuum of time space and came through bleeding without leaving a scar only tons of confused earthlings with memory by heart left to be labeled as crazy conspiracy theorists like they didn't just warp speed through this bitch flippity flop a 180 twice and then once more for good (huh what) good luck (sure) balls slap ass enough booty maybe clap (if it feels up to it) to get there a little too late and just in time to rewind it to the end and watch it all over for the first time
But wait there's more here comes the city boy that claims he was raised in Detroit on the Southside (8 Mile? Wait...) we're going to act like everything's fine and we never change the damn thing and all the whole rest of the song it's just the same as it always has been and you're crazy you didn't change anyting we don't have no motherfuking time machine! CERN!. Lhc?? Ahh.. what's that? Idk
I was homeless for five months living out of my car. The worst part of the experience was being perpetually tired due to fatigue. I recovered but my heart forever goes out to the homeless now because I will NEVER forget how they feel, and it's still frustrating to not be able to help anymore than I can. God love them, and I pray that someday this problem will be permanently irradicated through awareness and advocacy, especially for veterans.
When I graduated highschool, 5 fellow students got together and performed this song for us, a very fitting graduation song IMO. The instrumentals were bang on, but you can't play this song to a crowd and not expect it to turn into karaoke with everyone screaming lyrics at the top of their lungs. Their lead guitarist was a friend of mine and damn could he play. Any spare moment for as long as I knew him was dedicated time to that guitar and he was definitely showing off, playing one section with the guitar behind his back and crushing the solo. It was not meant to be a perfect performance, but was it ever in its own way, a bitter-sweet memory I'll never forget. I fully expected to see him make a living off that guitar, but sadly he passed away just 3 years later. When a friend passes away, it sucks, but this one bothers me so much more because you just knew he was going places. To the best guitarist I've ever known personally, Nick, rest in peace my friend, hard to believe it's been 10 years.
I feel you my dad was probably the best bass player I ever heard but he always procrastinated and never did anything with it and he would play this song right on maybe better he passed this past September from covid and since I picked up the bass and taught myself to play you in his memory maybe you should try in his memory even if you don't do anything with it he will know and you and that's all that matters
Such a wonderful song! I basically grew up loving Journey and this would have to be my favorite song of all time! My mom sadly passed and I tell myself I’ll never stop listening to Journey no matter what ❤
I had a paper route when i was 12 and my dad kept tight tabs on my money. I wasn't allow to freely spend it and i pretty much did as i was told for fear of a licking. One day, right after i heard this on the radio i walked down to the local Sears with $7.99 of my paper route money and bought it. I left my bedroom window open so i could toss it in and thus return home empty handed just in case my parents were in the front room. I think my dad knew but he was cool enough to understand that a bit of teenage disobedience isn't a bad thing. I grew out of the record but cherish the memories of a time when people were still excited about new music.
This song is magic. tempo beat and lyrics first class. The producers of the Sopranos couldn't have picked a better song as a build-up to the sudden darkness., which was a shock to all us Soprano fans.
I struggle with depression and severe anxiety. Music is powerful and this song in particular packs a powerful punch in all the right places. No matter how bad my depression hits, this song lifts me up and makes me want to fly!
Same Sis, i ve been diagnosed with borderline and am in an addiction therapy right now - without such music it would be much more difficult to fight depressive mood & stuff.. I wish you all the best, we can do it! Greetz from Germany:))
This song saved my dads life. Let me explain. My dad used to be a black hawk pilot in the military. He was tasked to carry some cargo at 3 in the morning after already working super hard the entirety before hand. Him and his pilot coworkers all were tired, they were going to fall asleep at any time if they even closed there eyes. Then my dad started singing the lyrics on the radio. Everyone else joined in. And for about a good 3 hours, they constantly sang this song to stay awake. My dad tells this story when its brought up, and its a great story from my dads time in the military. Thanks for reading.
@@johnnydavidson5343 He flew black hawks (Helicopters). I dont know what else to call him if there is another term for it. Unless your very specific and want me to call him a helicopter pilot.
Some songs touch ones life in ways unexplainable. This song is the history of me & my husband who died in Iraq in 2003. He was from Detroit, me from some no where southern town, both went to Las Vegas and had the remarkable fortune of bumping into each other.
RIP I'm from the metro area and all my family on my dad's side is from Detroit. My dad's brother was in the Michigan ANG and was killed in a motorcycle accident in '13
That series ending scene of the Sopranos really brought his song back. I remember when it came out originally it was huge but that Sopranos ending just rocketed this to 11. I still remember it. Great song.
Sopranos introduced me to this song and now it's all about it. When I listen to it random people start entering the restaurant and Meadow starts struggling with the parallel parking.
Me & my daughter would sing along to this song in the car when she was lk 6 years old.. she would always say "Ma, let's listen to that Street Lights song" ....good times, good memories! Xx
@@muhammadhafizh8684 I had a show with my brother and we had to come up with a title for our band and we blanked out for the whole time until last minute, coming out as the bond bros
Made me think of how tough it was back in the day when my dad relocated to Australia 🇦🇺 without knowing proper English. He came with nothing but determination, striving for a better life… Shout out to all the parents and people who gave everything to escape hardship.. Cheers to you Dad in Heaven 🕊️🙏🏽
Listening to this reminds me of my childhood.. The 80s was a unique and special decade in so many different ways. A transitional period between old and new world, almost like a sweet spot in human history. Society as a whole was benefiting from all the technological advancements across the board, but life was definitely not like it is today. There was no internet, online shopping, social media... You still had to go out and meet up with friends, hang out all day at the mall, go play video game arcades, go to the movie theater...It was much harder to be isolated. At the same time, at home we started having video game consoles, computers, gadgets, futuristic toys...
Rest in Peace, James Gandolfini. We Love and Miss you! You live in the heart of your Fans, your beloved ones and of course in the heart of your Family! Hope to see you up there, Jimmy
I have never heard this song before I watched the Sopranos final episode a few weeks ago. For some reason it is so fitting there, dissolving the sadness of your favorite TV show ending in its beauty. Weird combination of emotions, but definetely the most memorable TV finale for me. Thanks, Chase
Amazing that people are still discovering the greatest show in the history of tv 16 years after it ended. I remember watching it as it aired all those years ago. Still sticks in the mind.
@@Standard_Jay especially because throughout the whole show they never really play whole songs, just a minute or so. The credits only last a minute. So here in this scene they're finally playing a full song and then suddenly *blackness*
I love singing this song every day while i'm working... love the vibe. I keep believing in myself everyday despite of everything. I know i can achieve my dreams and show myself how strong and power I AM. Thanks life, Thanks God and thanks Journey for this masterpiece.🥰
This was the song that I played on my music school recital, I felt so happy while I was playing the drums, people were cheering and clapping for me which motivated me to play the drums even more. That will be one unforgettable experience, this song means a lot to me, I will never forget this wonderful song.
Hello Stranger! If you are having a bad time right now and a lot of problems and worries always think that there will be better times and don't stop believing!! I wish you all the best!
Thank you so much. Lost a close friend in febr. '20 - he died in my arms. Sometimes I think : you' re 37 and struggled with a hard life. What the hell will come tomorrow? But listening to this makes me think : well, it could be love too 😊
Came here after watchin cold case an this playing at the end as the show was goin off...this is epic an the fact that journey sings it makes it that much more appealing to the ears! Brings so many fond memories both old an new, an makes me feel some type of way inside... 🎶 is sonethn especially comin from great artists ❤
It’s amazing how much strength this song gives me to keep going when I really just wanna give up and quit. I’m extremely glad I have this song to turn to.
Steve Perry from Journey never gets old. Maybe in life he has a birthday but the music will and always be Awesome. 1989 the end of the 80s was the end of part of my life highschool. Jorney keeps on Rockin and Rockin as time moves on. And another Steve i wonder where hes at and what hes doing. KrickAnne Wilcox
This song makes me cry- not because I have a certain memory connected to it, or I was born during the era when it was written, but simply because during every happy time in my life, this song accompanied it. With covid and all that, I feel disconnected from everyone around me, and life is hard. But, as it always has, this song gave me hope for the future. I hope everyone else has something like this song, where they can go back and be happy. love you all.
I have a very rare, chronic disease, < 90 people in U.S. get diagnosed every yr. Bangs disease is 1 name, Satan's Fever is another. It effects every systems in the body. Got it when I was 2, didn't find out till my 30's, now I'm 46 & I fight. For my family, for my friends, most of us have some type of chronic pain & the depression that goes with it. In my youth I studied medicine & martial arts, funny the pressure points I used in defense I now use for healing & have used & studied alternative medicine (herbs, energy, etc.) for many yrs. My role now is the "tribes" modern day Shaman / Wise Woman. Fight, don't give up & don't stop believing!
DON'T STOP BELIEVIN' Just a small town girl Living in a lonely world She took the midnight train Going anywhere Just a city boy Born and raised in South Detroit He took the midnight train Going anywhere A singer in a smoky room The smell of wine and cheap perfume For a smile, they can share the night It goes on and on and on and on Strangers waiting Lookin' down the boulevard Their shadows searching in the night Streetlights, people Living just to find emotion Hiding somewhere in the night Working hard to get my fill Everybody wants a thrill Payin' anything to roll the dice Just one more time Some will win, some will lose Some are born to sing the blues Another movie never ends It goes on and on and on and on Strangers waiting Lookin' down the boulevard Their shadows searching in the night Streetlights, people Living just to find emotion Hiding somewhere in the night Don't stop believin' Hold on to that feeling Streetlights, people Ohohohhhhhhhhhh Don't stop believin' Hold on (to that) Streetlights, people Ohohohhhhhhhhhh Don't stop believin' Hold on to that feeling Streetlights, people
It doesn’t matter how old you are or what genre of music you usually listen to...EVERYONE loves this song! It’s one of the best songs ever written or performed!!
Just yesterday finished Sopranos and from then i can't stop listening this masterpiece. Legendary song, Legendary series, Legendary David Chase, Legendary James Gandolfini.
Same bro!! I finished this great show for the first time just on last sunday and now I'm stuck with this song!! And as you said, legendary song, legendary David Chase and legendary James Gandolfini. A true masterpiece, unforgettable show. Long live to The Sopranos.
I just finished The Sopranos an hour ago. I'm so happy to have watched the whole show, but I'm sad that it's over. I love Tony so much, the whole time watching the show knowing that James Gandolfini is dead made me feel sad but I enjoyed his character even more.
Born in 1976 and realising that we didn't know when we were very young quite how awesome these times were. And the music inspirational and full of emotions
When my wife and I were dating I'd ride around listening to this on 8 track. That was 38 years ago. She died 7 weeks ago. We loved each other more than life. I can't decide if this song makes me happy or sad..
3:05 one of the greatest solos of all time. Nothing too long or complex, just short and beautiful matching the melody. Brings so much emotion, especially after watching the Sopranos
Definitely impactful, but it sounds that good because of how good rest of the song is. As a guitar solo by itself, it's nice, but I don't think one of the 'greatest of all time'...
This song tells the story as to how Journey came together as a band and the message it sends to people to not stop chasing after your dreams. Jonathan Cain was a struggling musician and hit rock bottom. He called his Dad asking if he could come live with him because he had lost hope about his dream to be a musician. His dad told him, “Don’t stop believing!” That’s how they made this song and how Cain joined the band and how Journey became one of the greatest bands ever. Don’t stop believing people, follow your dreams!
Really! It's actually a very hard concept to pull off, where it builds and builds and then just explodes. But you have to do it really well to be worth it. Reminds me of Metallica songs. Slow and easy guitar, melodic singing and you get some heavy distortion and agressive vocals and somebody outside the rock world thinks wow that was a nice song, then all of a sudden it explodes with the real good stuff. As you said it, it really makes it worth it and this song is a prime example of that. Cheers!
That was Steve Perry’s idea… move the entire chorus to the end… and it’s actually sung after the bridge… so different… it’s only sung 3 times in the entire song!!!! Brilliant arranging!!
My sister passed away in December and that was her favorite song of all times. Every time I listen to it, I can feel my ears pulsating, as if she's next to me singing it at the top of her lungs.
My mom also passed away on December. I dream about her all the time and there's music I don't listen to because it's just too painful right now, which tells me you are brave and will be fine. May God grant you consolation and have mercy on your sister!
❤❤❤❤❤❤ don't stop believe deloris holder this song is for you and anyone facing barriers And obstacles the healthcare team loves you get well soon baby girl.❤❤❤❤
Está es la primera canción de los 80's que le gustó a mi hija de 4 Años y mi hijo de 12. Su ritmo, su fuerza es un "levántate" y disfruta de su sonido......cántala a todo pulmón y siéntela. Han pasado más de 35 años cuando la escuché por primera vez y sigue causándome la misma emoción.
Just a small town girl Livin' in a lonely world She took the midnight train goin' anywhere Just a city boy Born and raised in south Detroit He took the midnight train goin' anywhere A singer in a smoky room A smell of wine and cheap perfume For a smile they can share the night It goes on and on, and on, and on Strangers waiting Up and down the boulevard Their shadows searching in the night Streetlights, people Living just to find emotion Hiding somewhere in the night Working hard to get my fill Everybody wants a thrill Payin' anything to roll the dice Just one more time Some will win, some will lose Some were born to sing the blues Oh, the movie never ends It goes on and on, and on, and on Strangers waiting Up and down the boulevard Their shadows searching in the night Streetlights, people Living just to find emotion Hiding somewhere in the night Don't stop believin' Hold on to the feelin' Streetlights, people Don't stop believin' Hold on Streetlights, people Don't stop believin' Hold on to the feelin' Streetlights, people
Lyrics: Just a small town girl
Livin' in a lonely world
She took the midnight train goin' anywhere
Just a city boy
Born and raised in South Detroit
He took the midnight train goin' anywhere
A singer in a smokey room
The smell of wine and cheap perfume
For a smile they can share the night
It goes on and on, and on, and on
Strangers, waitin'
Up and down the boulevard
Their shadows
Searchin' in the night
Streetlights, people
Livin' just to find emotion
Hidin' somewhere in the night
Workin' hard to get my fill
Everybody wants a thrill
Payin' anything to roll the dice
Just one more time
Some will win
Some will lose
Some were born to sing the blues
Oh, the movie never ends
It goes on and on, and on, and on
Strangers waitin'
Up and down the boulevard
Their shadows
Searchin' in the night
Streetlights, people
Livin' just to find emotion
Hidin' somewhere in the night
Don't stop believin'
Hold on to that feelin'
Streetlight, people
Don't stop, believin'
Hold on
Streetlights, people
Don't stop believin'
Hold on to that feelin'
Streetlight, people
For those who somehow don’t know it by heart

@Rachel L. Gore Yes & no. Record labels have never existed to "help" artists achieve financial goals.

They can also sell their music on itunes and Amazon for a fraction of what labels would take from them. For the first time in history we're seeing bands find success completely without the need for a record label. So, with 163+ million views, I'm guessing Journey is still making money on this song because of this channel.
My sentiments exactly, Jason.

My music teacher in middle school was scary and demanding, but world class. When I was in 5th grade she told us to go home and listen to this song, we’re gonna be playing it for pep band. I’ll never forget going home and really listening to it for the first time that night. Music never made me feel like that before, and I’ve never stopped chasing it ever since. She died a few years ago, but I’ll never forget her. Can’t comprehend how greatly she impacted my life. Good teachers are an incredible blessing. So is this song.
This hits me hard because in my 6th grade year I had amazing teachers and they really worked hard to provide a healthy education for me and my classmates. In 7th grade however, my teaching experience greatly decreased in quality. I was very heartbroken but they actually ended up being amazing once I got about 2 months into 7th because they started having us do more soul healing and I realized that they were awesome all along and it was my view that they were not as good just because I had certain standards. Thanks for this song. We did song lyrics in 7th grade and they're meanings. I wish that we did this song. It is really beautiful.
I am 15 years old and I am Japanese but this song cheers me up when I`m down.
I love journey forever!!
Good music isn't hindered by any borders. Happy to hear one of my (american) favorites has reached the other side of the world. This was one of my favorites at your age, too! I think it will be for many more years...

My dad is visually impaired and lost his toes at a very young age. He thought he would live the rest of his life alone with no companion. Until he met my mom and she loved him for who he is. Married 36 years and now he has kids and grandkids. Don’t stop believing (:
God bless true love knows no boundaries only acceptance and grace....
@@TheKennedy49 he was very happy to hold his grandchild in his arms :D
That's a sweet story! Thank you for sharing it!
What happened to his toes?
WHERE DID HIS TOES GO?!
Thank you dad for introducing me to the Sopranos. Although we never got to watch it together, I know we will be able to talk about it together in Heaven.
And maybe the both of you can meet james gandolfini up there.
Something I think about everyday
Believe me dude, eventually, all these memories will make you better, stronger, smarter... It's funny, but losing someone does really help to improve your life. It makes you think about everything you lost and how you can improve for the future, so you never take things for granted ever again. The beginning is rough, thou, so hang in there, it might take a while, but one of the greatest feels you will get is to remember things with joy, and a smile about how good it felt, and how great things are now thanks to that one person. I know right now it might feel like everything sucks... But believe me, this bittersweet emotion eventually will evolve in something wonderful. She or he never really leaves, it stays there, helping you to become better and better... One day, you'll do the same for someone else.

Lyrics
Just a small town girl
Livin' in a lonely world
She took the midnight train going anywhere
Just a city boy
Born and raised in South Detroit
He took the midnight train going anywhere
A singer in a smokey room
A smell of wine and cheap perfume
For a smile they can share the night
It goes on and on and on and on
Strangers waitin'
Up and down the boulevard
Their shadows searchin' in the night
Streetlights, people
Livin' just to find emotion
Hidin', somewhere in the night
Workin' hard to get my fill
Everybody wants a thrill
Payin' anything to roll the dice
Just one more time
Some'll win, some will lose
Some are born to sing the blues
Whoa, the movie never ends
It goes on and on and on and on
Strangers waitin'
Up and down the boulevard
Their shadows searchin' in the night
Streetlights, people
Livin' just to find emotion
Hidin', somewhere in the night
Don't stop believin'
Hold on to that feelin'
Streetlights, people
Don't stop believin'
Hold on
Streetlights, people
Don't stop believin'
Hold on to that feelin'
Streetlights, people

@@byoungks67449 is that not what they typed?
@@gun2424 the lyrics now say he took a midnight train instead of she. The studio recording somehow defied the Continuum of time space and came through bleeding without leaving a scar only tons of confused earthlings with memory by heart left to be labeled as crazy conspiracy theorists like they didn't just warp speed through this bitch flippity flop a 180 twice and then once more for good (huh what) good luck (sure) balls slap ass enough booty maybe clap (if it feels up to it) to get there a little too late and just in time to rewind it to the end and watch it all over for the first time
But wait there's more here comes the city boy that claims he was raised in Detroit on the Southside (8 Mile? Wait...) we're going to act like everything's fine and we never change the damn thing and all the whole rest of the song it's just the same as it always has been and you're crazy you didn't change anyting we don't have no motherfuking time machine!

I was homeless for five months living out of my car. The worst part of the experience was being perpetually tired due to fatigue. I recovered but my heart forever goes out to the homeless now because I will NEVER forget how they feel, and it's still frustrating to not be able to help anymore than I can. God love them, and I pray that someday this problem will be permanently irradicated through awareness and advocacy, especially for veterans.

Sorry to hear what you went through Kevin. Glad you are in a better place. It is a scourge.
When I graduated highschool, 5 fellow students got together and performed this song for us, a very fitting graduation song IMO. The instrumentals were bang on, but you can't play this song to a crowd and not expect it to turn into karaoke with everyone screaming lyrics at the top of their lungs. Their lead guitarist was a friend of mine and damn could he play. Any spare moment for as long as I knew him was dedicated time to that guitar and he was definitely showing off, playing one section with the guitar behind his back and crushing the solo. It was not meant to be a perfect performance, but was it ever in its own way, a bitter-sweet memory I'll never forget. I fully expected to see him make a living off that guitar, but sadly he passed away just 3 years later. When a friend passes away, it sucks, but this one bothers me so much more because you just knew he was going places. To the best guitarist I've ever known personally, Nick, rest in peace my friend, hard to believe it's been 10 years.
What if hes rocking out in Heaven
@@Larko_o I'd expect nothing less!
RIP NICK 🙏🏽
Tell his story. He's not gone if someone still remembers him.
I feel you my dad was probably the best bass player I ever heard but he always procrastinated and never did anything with it and he would play this song right on maybe better he passed this past September from covid and since I picked up the bass and taught myself to play you in his memory maybe you should try in his memory even if you don't do anything with it he will know and you and that's all that matters
Such a wonderful song! I basically grew up loving Journey and this would have to be my favorite song of all time! My mom sadly passed and I tell myself I’ll never stop listening to Journey no matter what ❤
Everything about this song is absolutely perfect. It grabs my heart. Every time I hear it is like the first time.

I had a paper route when i was 12 and my dad kept tight tabs on my money. I wasn't allow to freely spend it and i pretty much did as i was told for fear of a licking. One day, right after i heard this on the radio i walked down to the local Sears with $7.99 of my paper route money and bought it. I left my bedroom window open so i could toss it in and thus return home empty handed just in case my parents were in the front room. I think my dad knew but he was cool enough to understand that a bit of teenage disobedience isn't a bad thing. I grew out of the record but cherish the memories of a time when people were still excited about new music.

This song saved my dads life.
Let me explain. My dad used to be a black hawk pilot in the military. He was tasked to carry some cargo at 3 in the morning after already working super hard the entirety before hand. Him and his pilot coworkers all were tired, they were going to fall asleep at any time if they even closed there eyes. Then my dad started singing the lyrics on the radio. Everyone else joined in. And for about a good 3 hours, they constantly sang this song to stay awake.
My dad tells this story when its brought up, and its a great story from my dads time in the military. Thanks for reading.
Your dad is a legend
A Black Hawk pilot? Someone reads too many comic books (you or your dad) or someone has pulled your leg shamelessly (your dad). :(
@@johnnydavidson5343 He flew black hawks (Helicopters). I dont know what else to call him if there is another term for it. Unless your very specific and want me to call him a helicopter pilot.

Some songs touch ones life in ways unexplainable. This song is the history of me & my husband who died in Iraq in 2003. He was from Detroit, me from some no where southern town, both went to Las Vegas and had the remarkable fortune of bumping into each other.
RIP I'm from the metro area and all my family on my dad's side is from Detroit. My dad's brother was in the Michigan ANG and was killed in a motorcycle accident in '13

That series ending scene of the Sopranos really brought his song back. I remember when it came out originally it was huge but that Sopranos ending just rocketed this to 11. I still remember it. Great song.
like the movie Monster
As a young kid the Sopranos ending introduced me to this master piece and I’m thankful it did.
The ending of the sopranos ruined this song for me
Think about tony soprano everytime I hear this song .. rip James Gandolfini
Sopranos introduced me to this song and now it's all about it. When I listen to it random people start entering the restaurant and Meadow starts struggling with the parallel parking.
Me & my daughter would sing along to this song in the car when she was lk 6 years old.. she would always say "Ma, let's listen to that Street Lights song" ....good times, good memories! Xx

One of the most iconic songs of all time, this song is timeless and one that will never get old.
No, it is getting a little old. It gets played too much at events and in TV shows and movies.
Listening to this reminds me of my childhood.. The 80s was a unique and special decade in so many different ways. A transitional period between old and new world, almost like a sweet spot in human history. Society as a whole was benefiting from all the technological advancements across the board, but life was definitely not like it is today. There was no internet, online shopping, social media... You still had to go out and meet up with friends, hang out all day at the mall, go play video game arcades, go to the movie theater...It was much harder to be isolated. At the same time, at home we started having video game consoles, computers, gadgets, futuristic toys...
Rest in Peace, James Gandolfini. We Love and Miss you! You live in the heart of your Fans, your beloved ones and of course in the heart of your Family! Hope to see you up there, Jimmy

3:05 one of the greatest solos of all time. Nothing too long or complex, just short and beautiful matching the melody. Brings so much emotion, especially after watching the Sopranos
Definitely impactful, but it sounds that good because of how good rest of the song is. As a guitar solo by itself, it's nice, but I don't think one of the 'greatest of all time'...
its great but the best one is 100% free birds solo
Nice pfp

Jonathan Cain was a struggling musician and hit rock bottom. He called his Dad asking if he could come live with him because he had lost hope about his dream to be a musician. His dad told him, “Don’t stop believing!” That’s how they made this song and how Cain joined the band and how Journey became one of the greatest bands ever. Don’t stop believing people, follow your dreams!
😭🙏♥️🎉
Fuck yeah, right on the money!
Don't know if this is true or not, but hell yes. Focus on making your dreams a reality. Live them, not just follow them.
@@THETRIVIALTHINGS Or follow 50 Cent's advice 'Die Trying' if nothing else is working. 😄

There is so much positive energy in this song!
gP Wish there was more in the comment section though
Hell yeah
ok
this song sucks nerds
I love how the "dont stop believing" part is until the end of the song. Makes you wait for it but the wait is worth it. Great build up.
Really! It's actually a very hard concept to pull off, where it builds and builds and then just explodes. But you have to do it really well to be worth it. Reminds me of Metallica songs. Slow and easy guitar, melodic singing and you get some heavy distortion and agressive vocals and somebody outside the rock world thinks wow that was a nice song, then all of a sudden it explodes with the real good stuff. As you said it, it really makes it worth it and this song is a prime example of that. Cheers!
That was Steve Perry’s idea… move the entire chorus to the end… and it’s actually sung after the bridge… so different… it’s only sung 3 times in the entire song!!!! Brilliant arranging!!
Great observation.
They planned it that way they wanted to build it up then hit you hard with it!!
Wdym the whole song fucking amazing not just that part
Man, 80's music makes me so happy

まだ小学生だった頃、亡き父親の車で良く聴いた曲。
聴きながら目を閉じれば、
日で熱くなった車のシート。
少し臭い、芳香剤と煙草の匂い。
走る車を縫って窓から入ってくる、
生温い風。
当時は不快に思っていたものも、
懐かしい思い出としてやってくる。
20数年たった最近、やっと見つけられて思わず涙が出てしまった。
最近夢に向かって頑張れていなかったから、また走っていこうと思います。
My sister passed away in December and that was her favorite song of all times. Every time I listen to it, I can feel my ears pulsating, as if she's next to me singing it at the top of her lungs.
i hope she is on a better place now
My mom also passed away on December. I dream about her all the time and there's music I don't listen to because it's just too painful right now, which tells me you are brave and will be fine. May God grant you consolation and have mercy on your sister!
My condolences to you
Sorry for your loss
I hope she is Jade, such a nice thought. All the best.
No matter what songs you like, this song brings everyone together.
I love rap but this song will always be a great fuckin song
and that is because it is rock, no other latin pop rap or bs
Where did these songs go, now songs are just about heartbreak and being bad
So true 🎯🎧🎶

My Grandmother was a square with music, but whenever this song came on she cranked it up to 11/10. She just passed away, that's why I'm here.
I’m sorry for your loss, at least you had good memories of her.
I'm sorry for your lost hope she's doing good up there and hope you alright :)
I am sorry for your loss, Mr.Smith. May God bless her with heaven. Ameen. Love from Pakistan.
im so sorry for your lose
What do you mean, a square? Like what music? You're probably underestimating the musicians by a great deal.
Está es la primera canción de los 80's que le gustó a mi hija de 4 Años y mi hijo de 12. Su ritmo, su fuerza es un "levántate" y disfruta de su sonido......cántala a todo pulmón y siéntela. Han pasado más de 35 años cuando la escuché por primera vez y sigue causándome la misma emoción.
Just a small town girl
Livin' in a lonely world
She took the midnight train goin' anywhere
Just a city boy
Born and raised in south Detroit
He took the midnight train goin' anywhere
A singer in a smoky room
A smell of wine and cheap perfume
For a smile they can share the night
It goes on and on, and on, and on
Strangers waiting
Up and down the boulevard
Their shadows searching in the night
Streetlights, people
Living just to find emotion
Hiding somewhere in the night
Working hard to get my fill
Everybody wants a thrill
Payin' anything to roll the dice
Just one more time
Some will win, some will lose
Some were born to sing the blues
Oh, the movie never ends
It goes on and on, and on, and on
Strangers waiting
Up and down the boulevard
Their shadows searching in the night
Streetlights, people
Living just to find emotion
Hiding somewhere in the night
Don't stop believin'
Hold on to the feelin'
Streetlights, people
Don't stop believin'
Hold on
Streetlights, people
Don't stop believin'
Hold on to the feelin'
Streetlights, people
Roedolf Maritz Thanks!
I know the lyrics so I sing my butt off every time
Thanks. I was just going to search for the lyrics. Great song. Genius
It's not SHE took the midnight train...it's HE both times. ;)
Charles Seymour don’t worry he just copied it of the description it’s In Most songs
This gives me hope for the future.
The Legends of the past are not here with us but surely their legacies (through music) will change our future.
Eh, I' m not so hopeful. After all, WAP exists and is actually quite liked. This is real music.
Something we all need
Me too
A legendary song that will never go out of style, it’ll go on and on and on and on…..
you correct it will never go out of style
funny you used the words on and on and on n
And recently memorialized into the National Recording Registry.
@@iamnobody406 I always do that pun on words. 🤣
I sang this song at a karaoke bar one summer, it was such a blast.. People were so into it and the entire place was singing along. An epic night!
