I see and appreciate you being inspired... get a guitar, anything, learn, be patient with yourself, dont give up, pour your heart and soul and create something thats you.... I'm a musician (drummer, guitar, vocals... I just finished building my home studio... now is the time in history to create something new... there is a music revolution coming...
I think the video shows how much these guys put themselves into each song! Each so talented and together, unforgettable! Listen to "Open Arms" and "Stay Awhile" - "Foolish Heart" will break your heart... "Why Can't This Night Go On Forever" will make you wish this original group were still performing...sigh! Aren't we lucky that we had the chance to know Journey's talent? Keep feeling the music!
We do understand how amazing the 80's were. Pure talent no auto tune. The music was incredible. Steve Perry a beautiful man beautiful heart with. A voice so pure, so full of emotion he makes you feel every word and will bring you to tears. Welcome to the world world of steve perry aka "the voice" as he's called.
Steve Perry's voice and Neal Schon's guitar will bring you to your knees every time. If this is the first song you've reacted to by them, you're in for quite a journey young man - no pun intended.
Neil Schon is the guitarist. He broke into rock at age 16 when he played rhythm guitar for Santana. Steve Perry is the vocalist. Jonathon Cain on keyboards. Ross Valory on bass and arguably the greatest rock drummer of all time in Steve Smith. Greatest band in the world. Journey. You're welcome.
I read in a magazine back then when the song came out that the guitarist Neal Schon was going through a hard break up which caused him to cry uncontrollably from the 1st. Time it was recorded up until the band played it live during its first live performances 😢😢😢😢
Dive deep into Journey with Steve Perry 1977-1987...you WILL NOT be disappointed. My favorite band for over 42 years. They are amazing. Just as new and fresh as when I heard them for the very first time in 1981!!! They were massively popular back in their prime. Journey On.
That voice is the one and only Steve Perry. His voice is just incredible. Check out Lovin’, Touchin’, Squeezin’. Also you’ll love Open Arms if you enjoy love songs. I was a teenager the early to mid 80s and we had the greatest music
Believe me, we do understand what we had.... And what today's music is like. .. And that's why we still listen to this..... I'm so glad you got to experience it.. I was lucky enough to see them in concert. ...And Steve Perry is phenomenal!! So is Neal
This is me and hubby’s song 🎵 ❤. Check out his song MOTHER FATHER. It’s phenomenal do the live version in Houston TX. It’s special because he doesn’t perform it often. During an interview he said that his parents divorced when he was around 7 and it has followed him into his adulthood.. the trauma.
You absolutely nailed explaining our music from the 70’s. It meant something. Steve Perry is the lead singer and the guy on the piano wrote this song. Excellent! Check out Open Arms. My two favorite Journey songs.
The first time I heard this song I was at a wedding and the groom was a musician. It was there first dance song. I was overwhelmed and it has been a favorite ever since.
That, young man, was a reaction! The genuineness and heartfelt reaction from you is what we are missing in today's world. We need more of you! Keep up the good work. This is one of my all time favorite songs. The emotion and feeling that is portrayed through a song like this is simply indescribable.
Steve Perry's voice and the emotion when he sings is extraordinary!!! He brought it each and every time he opened his mouth. Neil Schon is an incredible melodic guitar player! The whole Journey Band are absolutely awesome!
That's why the 80th Music are a so great Aera... Every decade has his Heroes... our where Journey and all the orher great Legends. There music and their Talent touches our Hearts until the next 100 years... absolute amazing song...
If you never watch another video of theirs, watch "Mother, Father" Live in Houston 1981. Other songs to check out: Ask The Lonely, Any Way You Want It, Be Good To Yourself, I'll Be Alright Without You, Why Can't This Night Go On Forever, Girl Can't Help It, Separate Ways, Stone In Love, When You Love A Woman, Edge Of The Blade, Still They Ride (live or studio), Can't Tame The Lion, Only The Young... so many...
I always liked love songs too…I was also a tough looking dude…my friends would say…”you like this stuff ?”… this man has so many incredible rock ballads… Love to see a person of your generation listening to incredible music…raw talent…
This is my favorite all time band from the late 1970's through to the late 1980's with Steve Perry as lead vocalist then. I love his voice so much!!! He left the group due to his health concerning his vocals being affected. Plus he was tired of touring and tensions in the band. The lead vocalist now is Arnel Pineda and he sounds almost exactly like Steve Perry!!! He is from the Philippines and was found by sheer luck!!! Here are some songs to check out...Open Arms, Send Her My Love, Don't Stop Believing and Who's Crying Now. A co-worker met and actually became friends with the band. He said they were great guys! This is my Era of music!!! I am so glad you like it!!! ♥️
Doug, Faithfully is one of Journey's most iconic, beautiful, ballads! But you haven't even begun to discover the magic of Journey with Steve Perry. His vocals will blow your mind. If you love, love songs 💞 listen to "When You Love a Woman". The vocals,guitar and piano are pure chemistry, "Why Can't This Night Go on Forever", "I'll Be Alright With Out You" Live from Tokyo, 1983. Your audience will tell you Steve Perry is unbelievably better Live in concert versions, than studio recordings and it's true. He simply has a stunning vocal range. You'll never want to listen to what's out there today! Peace 🕊️
Not corny at all. What most people don’t realize is that human beings naturally gravitate to goodness. People want those things which are good, noble and praiseworthy. You should want to know what it feels like to love this way. Everyone should! It would be tragic to come to this world and live a lifetime… and never feel this way. “…we need to earn what lovers own!” Kenny Loggins
An amazing reaction to an incredible song. Makes me know that the pure music of Journey and the 80s was truly the greatest. So happy to have experienced it. It's in the blood of every 80s kid.❤❤❤❤❤❤
Hey Doug. I'm happy you enjoyed this song. I feel blessed that this beautiful music came while I was in high school. I already knew back then it was sooo Special.
Doug, I truly love your reactions- they obviously come straight from the heart. It touches me, and so many other fans, that you have such a deep appreciation and love for the talent and technical skill that was Journey. Every song is pure joy, and Steve’s voice moves me to tears. He’s simply phenomenal! Please do some more reactions to Journey/Steve Perry songs…many have already been listed here. Personally I would love to hear your reactions to Happy To Give, Summer of Love, Against The Wall, Suzanne, I Stand Alone, In The Eyes of a Woman, Love’s Like a River, When You Love a Woman, and oh so many more! You’re an old soul I do believe, and these will touch you. Forever. THANK YOU for the time and energy you spend on your videos! You’re a treasure, right along with the music.
I grew up in a huge military family and this song is very popular among military vets. My father would be gone months at a time, sometimes years, yet my mother was always here for him and they still have a great marriage after 37 years. This song reminds me of their love. Also it's not corny to love love. Although I grew up in a military family I also grew up in a gang neighborhood in San Antonio and was a gang member myself until my daughter was born. Trust me even the hardest gang bangers listen to songs like this, even if they won't admit it 🤣 You also got a new subscriber homie 👍🏼
I'm an old lady that grew up in the '60s-'80s. I believe, we had the BEST music ever!!! My granddaughter loves every song that i listen to. Journey and Steve Perry gets played A LOT!!!!!
PLEASE do more Journey/Steve Perry reaction videos (& thank you for this one)! The emotion and joy you describe at hearing them just makes all of us fans so very happy! NO-ONE beats Steve with his emotionally charged, singing to the rafters, powerhouse voice. He truly is “The Voice”.
It's cool I like all types of music but the way steve perry sings a song it hits home 70s 80s and 90s I grew up in this era rock and motown best music ever
I LOVE your reaction! ❤ We have all reacted the same way to this amazing song, believe me. I was around when this masterpiece first came out and it’s rare specialness and raw emotional power is the same now as it was back then. Great reaction and so real. ❤️🙏🏻
I was a teenager in the 60's, so I listened to all of the great groups & singers! Ours was the best Generation (Baby Boomers). It's nice to hear a young man like yourself admit that love songs are great. We also had Soul songs, the Motown Sound, Folk music and great ballads that y'all are just discovering now. Enjoy! By the way, you're WELCOME!
Hello! You NEED to search for and watch Journey's 1981 Houston Concert. They actually a CD of the entire concert you need to watch - we watch it often. You can see how truly AMAZING his voice is. This is what I grew up listening to! I personally think he sounds better in concert!
For any couple who deal with one of them leaving to support the family knows this pain and ecstasy. My husband is an OTR truck driver and even after 25 years of him driving, I still weep after he leaves, but I never let him see it. I would never hurt his heart by letting him see a single tear in my eyes. My last words are always, "Be safe and come home to me because I love you."
Doug.....you are my kind of guy....appreciate your honesty in relating so much to the songs that created an era like no other.....Steve Perry (the Original Journey).....words cannot describe the talent that he and the Original Journey had.....he was so much a vital part of that era......the 70's and early 80's........no synchronization......no manufactured music.....just pure, raw talent. I don't know what else you have heard of Journey's many phenomenal songs...check out "Don't Stop Believing" from 1981 tour concert in Houston.....as well as Separate Ways from Tokyo....just pull up all the live performances. Check out some of my other favorites.... Eagles......any song they sing, lol......particularly the 1984 "Hell Freezes Over" live performance....... Bruce Springsteen....... my particular favorite is "Born to Run"......music video from 1975.....this was performed in up state New York.....near where Woodstock was held back in the 60's. Bee Gees.......anything of theirs......Stayin' Alive.....just look up their #1's...they had #1 songs in 5 consecutive decades......Stayin' Alive was written for the movie "Saturday Night Fever" in 1977....the movie that launched John Travolta's career....the song that brought Disco alive......... There are SO MANY amazing bands to check out during the 70's and early to mid 80's.....no other music like it. Have fun!!!
Yep, we had it made back in the day. Just turn on the radio, and this is the kind of songs/music you heard. Journey was a BIG deal!! He sang with all that passion all the time. We didnt know how good it was until it was gone. And YOU, are the cutest, sweetest thing. Do not ever change!
Doug” The 80’s concerts were the’….. Out of This World Experience bro”” I’m 61 and was able to attend, nothing again will ever compare ! Peace Out My Brother “
Hi Doug, this is my first time seeing one of your reaction videos! I it was so fun to watch you react to one of my all-time favorite songs, and singers, Steve Perry! I have so much respect for your truth with music, and what you relate to, and have a hard time relating to. that is a true man to me! Keep being honest and real in these videos, let your passion for the music show, and you will have thousands more followers. Including me today! Thanks man!
I know I am late to the party, but I appreciate your vulnerability. Never be shy about expressing your love for love. It is the height of all human emotions and something none of us can live without. "all conditions in life stem from love. Either the lack of or abundance of it." I always remember that. And no ones life is complete without hearing Steve Perry belt this song out. I grew up listening to them. My mother was obsessed with them, and saw them many times in concert. Jealous that she got to see them and hear Steve Perry sing live is an understatement. I'm soo glad you loved this song. And I hope you continued to find more songs by them that touched you just as deeply.
Back in the day, you made it on talent !!!! You had to be able to make people feel what you were saying. To make people feel ìt even in the music. It all had to come together. That is what makes a hit. There was no auto tune . And live was just that LIVE. If you wanted to destroy your career, fake it and lip sink to a tape so you can dance .
Your fun. Yes I saw Journey live in 1979 when I was 14, in Oakland. Great band, but Steve Perry is one of the best singers in popular music history. Super soulful live. Try "The Girl Can't Help It" official video, which is a live performance. Also "Don't Stop Believing" the live in Huston 1981 concert video. So many great songs. Just go down that rabbit hole, you won't be sorry. Much love from California.
Faithfully is amazing song by Journy. This one, and Open Arms is my favorite. Oh Sherrie by Steve Perry, from Journey is really good as well. Turn the Page, by Bob Segar is a similar song to Faithfully, in that they are both about the dark side of the music industry.
May God bless you 🙏! I'm 60 years old and this is why the older generation says the older music was the BEST!!! PLEASE CONTINUE LISTENING TO THE OLD MUSIC!!!
Journey is just as amazing live as in this music video. Check out sone of the videos from their Escape Tour Live in Houston 1981. It's an awesome experience. Favorites are Open Arms and Don't Stop Believing as well as this one.
Doug, this group is my all time favorite. Steve Perry sings with so much emotion that you believe every word he’s singing is coming straight from his heart. Journey’s song make me cry all the time. You MUST check out their song “Send Her My Love”. That songs brings me to me knees every time I hear it!!! Steve Perry had THE best voice. No such thing as auto tune back then. Just pure talent. Again… check out “Send Her My Love”
I feel you! I love Love, too. It's a beautiful thing! I love when a song moves me! I was in my teens and twenties during Journey's peak, and it was an incredible time for music, and I am grateful for the lifetime of memories evoked from that great music. Steve Perry's voice was arguably the best of our lifetime. Thank you for the wonderful reaction!
Loved your reaction! Can't wait for your serenade. You should listen to Send Her My Love (video), Open Arms from Houston live show, ,Oh Sherrie (video) and Missing You (video).
Dios lesbendiga siempre Bella familia hijos hique Dios lesbendiga siempre hatadas las bellas madres del mundo entero que sin hella nosotros honbres hi mujeres no estubieramos haqui love you 🥰 Happy Mother’s Day Dios lesbendiga siempre love you 🥰🏠🕊️🌍🙏🙏🥰♥️🌹🌹🥰🥰🦋🦋🦋🥰🕊️🕊️
P.S. EVERY. SINGLE. THING. they’ve ever done is beyond pure raw talent & magic🥰- if you’d like to be blown away, & in a different way even than you were with ‘Faithfully’, PLEASE🙏🙏 watch & react to the live performance in Houston, 1981, of ‘Mother, Father’… HOLY JESUS😳🌹😅
I didn't know a song could make me feel this way... LOL
No autotune , talent
It brings me to tears! So emotional & powerful…
congratulations on discovering the greatest rock group ever!
Here i am watching every reaction to the song i could find, going down a rabbit hole 😁. Can't stop
I see and appreciate you being inspired... get a guitar, anything, learn, be patient with yourself, dont give up, pour your heart and soul and create something thats you.... I'm a musician (drummer, guitar, vocals... I just finished building my home studio... now is the time in history to create something new... there is a music revolution coming...
I think the video shows how much these guys put themselves into each song! Each so talented and together, unforgettable! Listen to "Open Arms" and "Stay Awhile" - "Foolish Heart" will break your heart... "Why Can't This Night Go On Forever" will make you wish this original group were still performing...sigh!

We do understand how amazing the 80's were. Pure talent no auto tune. The music was incredible. Steve Perry a beautiful man beautiful heart with. A voice so pure, so full of emotion he makes you feel every word and will bring you to tears. Welcome to the world world of steve perry aka "the voice" as he's called.
Yes we do❤️
totally agree!
I’m 68 and this song still kills me. Every single time…Lordy!
Steve Perry's voice and Neal Schon's guitar will bring you to your knees every time. If this is the first song you've reacted to by them, you're in for quite a journey young man - no pun intended.
That long note at the end gives me chills!
Nothing corny about loving love, there's nothing higher. These songs are a good reminder to care for others.
The Voice always shined brighter live than in the studio. Steve Perry had a once in a hundred years vocal talent.
Amen to that. There will never be another voice like his.
Neil Schon is the guitarist. He broke into rock at age 16 when he played rhythm guitar for Santana. Steve Perry is the vocalist. Jonathon Cain on keyboards. Ross Valory on bass and arguably the greatest rock drummer of all time in Steve Smith.
Greatest band in the world. Journey. You're welcome.
For people in 20 years this man is a legend
Absolutely!😎💯
And it’s crazy that we knew that 40 years ago! They sing and play with such passion!!❤
I read in a magazine back then when the song came out that the guitarist Neal Schon was going through a hard break up which caused him to cry uncontrollably from the 1st. Time it was recorded up until the band played it live during its first live performances 😢😢😢😢
Dive deep into Journey with Steve Perry 1977-1987...you WILL NOT be disappointed. My favorite band for over 42 years. They are amazing. Just as new and fresh as when I heard them for the very first time in 1981!!! They were massively popular back in their prime. Journey On.
We did have the best music! I saw Journey live in 1983. Amazing times!
That voice is the one and only Steve Perry. His voice is just incredible. Check out Lovin’, Touchin’, Squeezin’. Also you’ll love Open Arms if you enjoy love songs. I was a teenager the early to mid 80s and we had the greatest music
Yeah, Open Arms and When You Love a Woman (Perry's last hit with the group before he left) will really get you!
You would love any and all songs from Journey. This is my Era of music. Always loved Journey
Believe me, we do understand what we had.... And what today's music is like. .. And that's why we still listen to this..... I'm so glad you got to experience it.. I was lucky enough to see them in concert. ...And Steve Perry is phenomenal!! So is Neal
I love your reactions to journey. We were so lucky to have them in the 70s and 80s my favorite by far.❤
Steve Perry and Journey were simply amazing back in the day. They were huge!
Always good to see a young cat be able to feel the music. Great job
This is me and hubby’s song 🎵 ❤. Check out his song MOTHER FATHER. It’s phenomenal do the live version in Houston TX. It’s special because he doesn’t perform it often. During an interview he said that his parents divorced when he was around 7 and it has followed him into his adulthood.. the trauma.
You absolutely nailed explaining our music from the 70’s. It meant something. Steve Perry is the lead singer and the guy on the piano wrote this song. Excellent! Check out Open Arms. My two favorite Journey songs.
I saw George Thorogood open for them in 1981 in Philadelphia. Journey was opening for the Rolling Stones. What an amazing concert!
The first time I heard this song I was at a wedding and the groom was a musician. It was there first dance song. I was overwhelmed and it has been a favorite ever since.
That, young man, was a reaction! The genuineness and heartfelt reaction from you is what we are missing in today's world. We need more of you! Keep up the good work. This is one of my all time favorite songs. The emotion and feeling that is portrayed through a song like this is simply indescribable.
Steve Perry, the rock GOAT. Seeing JOURNEY live was one of the greatest musical experiences of ever.
Steve Perry's voice and the emotion when he sings is extraordinary!!! He brought it each and every time he opened his mouth. Neil Schon is an incredible melodic guitar player! The whole Journey Band are absolutely awesome!
That's why the 80th Music are a so great Aera... Every decade has his Heroes... our where Journey and all the orher great Legends. There music and their Talent touches our Hearts until the next 100 years... absolute amazing song...
They were the best group ever! Anything in their catalog is great. Still They Ride, Stone in Love, Mother, Father, Sister all great!
If you never watch another video of theirs, watch "Mother, Father" Live in Houston 1981. Other songs to check out: Ask The Lonely, Any Way You Want It, Be Good To Yourself, I'll Be Alright Without You, Why Can't This Night Go On Forever, Girl Can't Help It, Separate Ways, Stone In Love, When You Love A Woman, Edge Of The Blade, Still They Ride (live or studio), Can't Tame The Lion, Only The Young... so many...
All of the above, including every song from Escape - especially the title track.
Music from the ‘70’s and 80’s was of my younger day and there has never been more, truly amazing generation!
Two words: "Mother, Father"
You want the live in Houston version.
You're welcome.👍
You should listen to Journey live in Houston 1981! Open Arms and Who's Crying Now. Any song from this concert is great!
I always liked love songs too…I was also a tough looking dude…my friends would say…”you like this stuff ?”…
this man has so many incredible rock ballads…
Love to see a person of your generation listening to incredible music…raw talent…
You have to understand back in the 80’s this group was one of the top bands in it’s time
Great reaction!!! You’re right, we had THE BEST music!!! That’s why we are still listening to it!!! 😊
This was called the "greatest power ballad ever written".
We were truly spoiled with all of the amazing talent and creativity of the 70s and 80s.
This is my favorite all time band from the late 1970's through to the late 1980's with Steve Perry as lead vocalist then. I love his voice so much!!! He left the group due to his health concerning his vocals being affected. Plus he was tired of touring and tensions in the band. The lead vocalist now is Arnel Pineda and he sounds almost exactly like Steve Perry!!! He is from the Philippines and was found by sheer luck!!! Here are some songs to check out...Open Arms, Send Her My Love, Don't Stop Believing and Who's Crying Now. A co-worker met and actually became friends with the band. He said they were great guys! This is my Era of music!!! I am so glad you like it!!! ♥️
Doug, Faithfully is one of Journey's most iconic, beautiful, ballads! But you haven't even begun to discover the magic of Journey with Steve Perry. His vocals will blow your mind. If you love, love songs 💞 listen to "When You Love a Woman". The vocals,guitar and piano are pure chemistry, "Why Can't This Night Go on Forever", "I'll Be Alright With Out You" Live from Tokyo, 1983. Your audience will tell you Steve Perry is unbelievably better Live in concert versions, than studio recordings and it's true. He simply has a stunning vocal range. You'll never want to listen to what's out there today! Peace 🕊️
I know what you mean!! This was out when I was too young to appreciate it but now I love it now!!!!!
Not corny at all. What most people don’t realize is that human beings naturally gravitate to goodness.
People want those things which are good, noble and praiseworthy.
You should want to know what it feels like to love this way. Everyone should!
It would be tragic to come to this world and live a lifetime… and never feel this way.
“…we need to earn what lovers own!”
Kenny Loggins
That is the power of music!! Right there.
An amazing reaction to an incredible song. Makes me know that the pure music of Journey and the 80s was truly the greatest. So happy to have experienced it. It's in the blood of every 80s kid.❤❤❤❤❤❤
You are hope and inspiration personified.
G.O.A.T!!
Their best 2 songs are
Mother father live in Houston Texas 1981
Still they ride live in Tokyo 1983
Both are fire 🔥 😊
Hey Doug. I'm happy you enjoyed this song. I feel blessed that this beautiful music came while I was in high school. I already knew back then it was sooo Special.
Doug, I truly love your reactions- they obviously come straight from the heart. It touches me, and so many other fans, that you have such a deep appreciation and love for the talent and technical skill that was Journey. Every song is pure joy, and Steve’s voice moves me to tears. He’s simply phenomenal!
Please do some more reactions to Journey/Steve Perry songs…many have already been listed here. Personally I would love to hear your reactions to Happy To Give, Summer of Love, Against The Wall, Suzanne, I Stand Alone, In The Eyes of a Woman, Love’s Like a River, When You Love a Woman, and oh so many more! You’re an old soul I do believe, and these will touch you. Forever.
THANK YOU for the time and energy you spend on your videos! You’re a treasure, right along with the music.
That means a lot to me, I really do appreciate that 💙💙
I consider this possibly the best song of all time. Really enjoyed your reaction! Thanks for sharing!
I grew up in a huge military family and this song is very popular among military vets.
My father would be gone months at a time, sometimes years, yet my mother was always here for him and they still have a great marriage after 37 years.
This song reminds me of their love.
Also it's not corny to love love. Although I grew up in a military family I also grew up in a gang neighborhood in San Antonio and was a gang member myself until my daughter was born.
Trust me even the hardest gang bangers listen to songs like this, even if they won't admit it 🤣
You also got a new subscriber homie 👍🏼
I'm an old lady that grew up in the '60s-'80s. I believe, we had the BEST music ever!!! My granddaughter loves every song that i listen to. Journey and Steve Perry gets played A LOT!!!!!

All of them
The thing about Steve Perry is all his music is raw and honest song writing and he sings it with real emotions
I was a teenager in the 60's, so I listened to all of the great groups & singers! Ours was the best Generation (Baby Boomers).
It's nice to hear a young man like yourself admit that love songs are great. We also had Soul songs, the Motown Sound, Folk music and great ballads that y'all are just discovering now. Enjoy!
By the way, you're WELCOME!
Steve Perry is tops! Yes we had the BEST music!
Steve Perry. Incredible. You can go on and on about this gentleman. My favorite.
Hello! You NEED to search for and watch Journey's 1981 Houston Concert. They actually a CD of the entire concert you need to watch - we watch it often. You can see how truly AMAZING his voice is. This is what I grew up listening to! I personally think he sounds better in concert!

Steve Perry "the voice"
Best reaction to the best music!
It is Neal schon playing the guitar.
I'll Be Alright Without You and After The Fall by Journey are 2 of my favorites and Steve Perry solo songs Strung Out & Oh Sherry are 🔥🔥
For any couple who deal with one of them leaving to support the family knows this pain and ecstasy. My husband is an OTR truck driver and even after 25 years of him driving, I still weep after he leaves, but I never let him see it. I would never hurt his heart by letting him see a single tear in my eyes. My last words are always, "Be safe and come home to me because I love you."
Listen to " Winds of March" by Journey, it's one of their earlier songs.
Doug.....you are my kind of guy....appreciate your honesty in relating so much to the songs that created an era like no other.....Steve Perry (the Original Journey).....words cannot describe the talent that he and the Original Journey had.....he was so much a vital part of that era......the 70's and early 80's........no synchronization......no manufactured music.....just pure, raw talent. I don't know what else you have heard of Journey's many phenomenal songs...check out "Don't Stop Believing" from 1981 tour concert in Houston.....as well as Separate Ways from Tokyo....just pull up all the live performances.
Check out some of my other favorites....
Eagles......any song they sing, lol......particularly the 1984 "Hell Freezes Over" live performance.......
Bruce Springsteen....... my particular favorite is "Born to Run"......music video from 1975.....this was performed in up state New York.....near where Woodstock was held back in the 60's.
Bee Gees.......anything of theirs......Stayin' Alive.....just look up their #1's...they had #1 songs in 5 consecutive decades......Stayin' Alive was written for the movie "Saturday Night Fever" in 1977....the movie that launched John Travolta's career....the song that brought Disco alive.........
There are SO MANY amazing bands to check out during the 70's and early to mid 80's.....no other music like it.
Have fun!!!
Best reaction ever!
Yep, we had it made back in the day. Just turn on the radio, and this is the kind of songs/music you heard. Journey was a BIG deal!! He sang with all that passion all the time. We didnt know how good it was until it was gone. And YOU, are the cutest, sweetest thing. Do not ever change!
Doug”
The 80’s concerts were the’….. Out of This World Experience bro””
I’m 61 and was able to attend, nothing again will ever compare !
Peace Out My Brother “
Hi Doug, this is my first time seeing one of your reaction videos! I it was so fun to watch you react to one of my all-time favorite songs, and singers, Steve Perry! I have so much respect for your truth with music, and what you relate to, and have a hard time relating to. that is a true man to me! Keep being honest and real in these videos, let your passion for the music show, and you will have thousands more followers. Including me today! Thanks man!
Dude it’s NOT corny. Also Steve Perry was like that too
If you love love songs, try Journey's Open Arms and Whose Crying Now. Steve Perry at his best.
I know I am late to the party, but I appreciate your vulnerability. Never be shy about expressing your love for love. It is the height of all human emotions and something none of us can live without. "all conditions in life stem from love. Either the lack of or abundance of it." I always remember that. And no ones life is complete without hearing Steve Perry belt this song out. I grew up listening to them. My mother was obsessed with them, and saw them many times in concert. Jealous that she got to see them and hear Steve Perry sing live is an understatement. I'm soo glad you loved this song. And I hope you continued to find more songs by them that touched you just as deeply.
Amazing reaction!
Doug, point of interest! Journey had a bass guitarist who was amazing!! Look it up! He was totally I tink one of their best bass guitarists!

Back in the day, you made it on talent !!!! You had to be able to make people feel what you were saying. To make people feel ìt even in the music. It all had to come together. That is what makes a hit. There was no auto tune . And live was just that LIVE. If you wanted to destroy your career, fake it and lip sink to a tape so you can dance .
Your fun. Yes I saw Journey live in 1979 when I was 14, in Oakland. Great band, but Steve Perry is one of the best singers in popular music history. Super soulful live. Try "The Girl Can't Help It" official video, which is a live performance. Also "Don't Stop Believing" the live in Huston 1981 concert video. So many great songs. Just go down that rabbit hole, you won't be sorry. Much love from California.
Faithfully is amazing song by Journy. This one, and Open Arms is my favorite. Oh Sherrie by Steve Perry, from Journey is really good as well.
Turn the Page, by Bob Segar is a similar song to Faithfully, in that they are both about the dark side of the music industry.
You aren't alone😢😊
May God bless you 🙏! I'm 60 years old and this is why the older generation says the older music was the BEST!!! PLEASE CONTINUE LISTENING TO THE OLD MUSIC!!!
Journey is just as amazing live as in this music video. Check out sone of the videos from their Escape Tour Live in Houston 1981. It's an awesome experience.
Favorites are Open Arms and Don't Stop Believing as well as this one.
It’s so great to see someone so young appreciate “my” music. I got to see Journey 10 times at least. Memories made and cherished.
I nominate TB to be an honorary Gen-Xer! He gets us
This music kept me married for 40 years, and still going strong
yeah bro... sums it all up.... head set drop. heard this song a thousand times, and it still gets me
Doug, this group is my all time favorite. Steve Perry sings with so much emotion that you believe every word he’s singing is coming straight from his heart. Journey’s song make me cry all the time. You MUST check out their song “Send Her My Love”. That songs brings me to me knees every time I hear it!!! Steve Perry had THE best voice. No such thing as auto tune back then. Just pure talent. Again… check out “Send Her My Love”
You like all of the right things, my friend.
The song and clothes are still here, journey will be one of the best forever, and ever and ever ❤.
I feel you! I love Love, too. It's a beautiful thing! I love when a song moves me! I was in my teens and twenties during Journey's peak, and it was an incredible time for music, and I am grateful for the lifetime of memories evoked from that great music. Steve Perry's voice was arguably the best of our lifetime. Thank you for the wonderful reaction!
Steve Perry aka "the voice".

You should be proud of yourself, you're so insightful!
I've been listening to this song as long as I can remember - and I *STILL* cry when I hear it. Definitely a classic/fave.
Loved your reaction! Can't wait for your serenade. You should listen to Send Her My Love (video), Open Arms from Houston live show, ,Oh Sherrie (video) and Missing You (video).
