Steve Perry has one of the greatest voices in rock history. He helped launch Journey into superstardom.
He was the reason that anyone knew who they were.
The best Malé voice ever
With Lou Gramm, Jimi Jamison(R.I.P), Freddy Mercury(R.I.P) and Glenn Hughes and John Wetton(R.I.P)
Truthfully, people usually dismiss this guy which is such a tragedy. George Michael had an AMAZING voice also.@@werjor632
Can never go wrong with Journey. A great band with an absolutely iconic voice.
Steve perrys voice is like silk just perfect
This song was written by Keyboardist Jonathon Cain who was having issues with his marriage every time they headed out on the road. He and his wife eventually divorced. Steve Perry was one of the great rock singers of all time.
James, wasn't aware of that....thank you. Always thought it was Neil Schon job....keyboards on this is beautiful..voice....say no more. Kind regards from Northern Ireland 🇬🇧 Best wishes
Some people may think lighting lighters at concerts back then was "dorky"...
imagine being a teenager in the 1980s and seeing Journey live, hearing Steve Perry singing, "Faithfully" with thousands of lighters lit up across the arena.
That was a sight to see...
I saw Journey in Chicago when I was 17 and that was a concert memory that I will never, ever forget.
In the 70's and 80's when I went to concerts I always had a fresh filled Zippo just to do that.
Journey is definitely one of the great American bands that reached their peak of success during the early 80's. "Faithfully" is one of their best songs. When I think of the great lead singers of rock bands, Steve Perry of Journey is one of the first names that comes to mind. Incredible singer. My favorite power ballad from them that I recommend you try is "Open Arms". For something more rocking and up-tempo from Journey I recommend you try is "Don't Stop Believing"
Fantastic recommendations! 😊

But Guys Do you Understand what is Behind the Meaning of the Songthe song is about a long distance relationship. "sendin all my love along the wire". they are not together but they are able to still love each other. such an emotional song.the song is about a long distance relationship. "sendin all my love along the wire". they are not together but they are able to still love each other.

Mama knows her music 👍🏻🤟!!
I am a base player and i travelled doing 300 shows in a year. rarely was home. Fact is i was a roady setting things up for the band but because the base player had a drug problem i actually played in about 80 shows. I only did it one year because if i did it more i would of been divorced and i would never want that for my two daughters. I toured with a nameless band from jan 1989 and did the final show new years eve of 1989. I loved touring but i didnt want to lose my little family. great memories overall though
Steve sings with so much passion and sounds even better live!!
What a great rabbit hole to dive down! Steve Perry’s voice is amazing and so is Neil Schon’s guitar playing!! Fun fact: Neil played guitar for Carlos Santana around age 15!! “Only The Young” (my favorite song!), “Feeling That Way/Anytime”, “Lights”, “Wheel In The Sky”, “Don’t Stop Believin’”, “Stone In Love”, “Lovin’ Touchin’ Squeezin’”, “Be Good To Yourself”, “When You Love A Woman” are a couple of their hits!! 🤟🤟🤟
Ladies
Few years ago, my friends and I have seen Journey with their opening act, The Doobie Brothers. This is when Journey has and currently have Perry's replacement, Arnel Pineda. At 1st, I had my doubts about Arnel's singing, but hours later in the concert, I am sold!
No one compares to Steve. Arnel is good but not great like Steve
@@coralanne2464 Totally agree ! Arnel does a great job .. but he's not on Perry's level . Even Randy Jackson said he's good ! but still no Steve Perry .
Makes me smile that I was a teenager during this age of music.. Good stuff.
No one sounds like Steve Perry, no one ever will. The power, the clarity, the emotion... Steve's the best of the best.
This came out in 1983, a lot of great music happened that year
Steve Perry is the best male voice. U 2 should review all of Journey's songs and Steve Perry solo songs like foolish heart and o Sherrie etc.
Oh and they are with each other- all guys, lots of stress and girlfriends getting their noses in the bands business.
Good evening, ladies....
I was a huge Journey fan back in college, so much so that my roomie and others on my hall hid my albums for awhile! LOL
I was happy to see that towards the end of your reaction how poignant you were in recognizing how this song can not only be about touring musicians (even though it's obviously written and performed by touring musicians.) Having served in the Army for 23 years with several deployments and am now working security at an overseas embassy I've experienced some of the parallels with this song's lyrics. Sometimes one can get choked up listening to this. You hit it right on the head that not only for those at home, but those who are away also sometimes feel a level of loneliness that can only be remedied by returning home.
This, I know from experience.
Great reaction, ladies. Thank you!
Thank you Michael! Yes, so many people can relate to the song's message of being away from loved ones for an extended period of time. We deeply appreciate you and your service, and continued work overseas. Mom is an Army Brat and understands the struggles of watching her dad leave for deployment and wondering if she'd ever see him again.
“I get the joy of rediscovering you. Oh, girl you stand me!” ……❤
I saw them at Brendan Byrne Arena in 1983 during this tour, for the Frontiers album.
This was a new song and hearing Steve belt this out was.....
If you want another song about life on the road I highly recommend Bob Segers "Turn the Page" from the Live Bullet album.
Bob is a legend
Journey is my favorite. My husband is an Over the Road semi driver & I know how this feels!❤
What a great singer
I just love love love this song. Great lyrics that tell a story anyone who has been in love or been loved can understand.
I love Journey and their songs have meaning. Journey isn't Journey without Steve Perry. He made the band. His vocal range surpasses all other singers and he can still sing today. I still listen to my albumns I have of them. My boyfriend worked with a band and was on the road when I gave birth to our daughter. It was tough missing things when you're always traveling.
Hi Rebecca, I completely agree with you! I can see this song has so much meaning to you. It makes spending time together so special. 🥰
Ladies,. This song is so gorgeous 🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶
Hi beautiful Ladies 🤣.. I'm a bass player from Montana..thank you for for recognizing older music
Few songs reach a crescendo of music, lyrical intensity and vocal passion like this.
Schonn's spiraling guitar chases Perry's soaring voice to an incredible climax.
The lead guitarist used to play with Carlos Santana in the 70's before joining Journey .
Mr. Steve Perry tragically left music for many years leaving the excellent musicians of Journey without a lead singer. Steve's voice and singing is impossible to recreate. The musicians from Journey tried for years to replace Steve. He didn't marry until late in life he just lost his desire for singing. His return in recent years was after the loss of his wife, a wonderful woman he married even knowing she had a terminal disease. Mrs. Perry urged her husband to find his voice and he did after his grieving for her and it is a fantastic album without his old band.
Thank You for reacting and enjoying Steve Perry and Journey.
You are in my prayers
Hoka Hey
It must of been really difficult back then you had phones but you can't face time like we can now so you can hear their voices but long to see their faces and feel their presence.
Steve is one of the greatest vocalist, you just can't do much better than what he did. Something like magic. A once in a lifetime talent for sure!
This song came out in 1982 I was in 10th grade and went to there concert in south Florida where I grew up. I also was able to see the Eagles ,Heart ,and The little River band in the Yale stadium when I was 14 years old!!! I will never forget those times. Stay safe.
This song came from the 1983 'Frontiers' album 🙂
I was at that concert at Yale Bowl. Even though the sound system sucked it was a great concert. Can never go wrong with Eagles, Heart and LRB. Journey/STEVE PERRY always kills it.
Good evening ladies you should play who crying now open arms
Great songs all time great times
Omg Steve Perry is so handsome
Sometimes its really hard to compare which band is better, there are so many,Its like comparing which ice cream taste best.
Well said 😊
Journey is amazing! Steve Perry is the Best! You should check out his solo hit "Foolish Heart". Beautiful. Also, if you want to see another great song about "being on the road" and missing a loved one...check out "Beth" by KISS...yes, KISS the crazy loud Rock band with one of the most beautiful slow songs ever...violins, etc...about the drummer missing his wife Beth while they are constantly on the road. Great song!
Arguably the best song about traveling on the road is Jackson Browne's Load Out/Stay off of his Running On Empty album. In it he also pays tribute to his roadies who never receive any recognition.
i agree about life on the road for this profession but nothing compares to the ordeal our service man and woman go through knowing there is a chance they will never see them again
Journey is still a great group despite Steve Perry not being there anymore, Faithfully is a beautiful song to tell her how you feel
As a truck driver this song hits deep,probably one of the Greatest Love Songs to come out of the 80s!! Still listen to Journey today,their music will live on....
Heart warming 💓
Back in the day if you went to a concert you would have three bands, The top billing band, a band on the way up or down and Journey as the opener. We would stay out in the parking lot and get our happy on and go in late just to Miss Journey . Then they changed singers and the Infinity album came out and and they were huge !! The first time I saw Journey as the Top band some up and coming band opened the show.....the band was Van Halen !!!!
Great show ,fun Friday Night Live Stream also.I just saw Tammy Wynette on the Jonny Cash Show and Midnight Special TV show is another good place for musicians.
Thonk about our soldiers.
I , was gone for ... too, long.
2 tours and loved ones passed.
That time you'll never get back.
They put it as a 'hard time' touring. So they have a GOOD TIME. Why would you feel bad for them...🤣🤣🤣
I remember in Jr high if you liked a girl you sit in front of the radio till they played this song and recorded it on a cassette tape along with other love songs than gave it to her..... God I'm getting old 😑
Steven Paul Perry Was In Love With Sherrie Swafford ,
Their Relationship Struggled With The Road Travel , Then
Their Relationship Went In To A Lengthy Hiatus ; , That
Is When Steve Perry Wrote The Song , " OH SHERRIE " ❤️
Listen To The Song " Mother , Father , Sister , Brother "
Live Concert In Houston 1981 , For A Live Album Done
Through MTV , AWESOME !!
Awesome cool song, Steve Perry was Journey 🎤🥁🎸🎸🔥🔥👍😎👌
Did it for better than 30 years. Brutal at times, but I'm married to a strong woman.
I did video work for Journey in Marin County, Calif. in the 80's. All the guys in Journey were first rate individuals including Jonathon and his wife Tawney.
Wow that's really cool! What type of work did you do with the videos?
@@generationgapreacts
Mostly taping in studio for music videos and some on the road work at concerts. I also installed some video and sound equipt, in the homes of several band members.
Every girl that I saw reacting to this song ending in love AND wishing to find something like this and Is ok
No better singer than Steve Perry
That's an opinion. What if I said Nat King Cole, Elvis, Stevie Wonder, Frank Sinatra, or even Michael Jackson were a superior singer?
This sublime song from Journey echoes the feeling from a Nobel Laureate in poetry with the following lines of "life's journey."
With the drawing of this Love and the voice of this Calling
We shall not cease from exploration
And the end of all our exploring
Will be to arrive where we started
And know the place for the first time.
Through the unknown, unremembered gate
When the last of earth left to discover
Is that which was the beginning;
At the source of the longest river
The voice of the hidden waterfall
And the children in the apple-tree
Not known, because not looked for
But heard, half-heard, in the stillness
Between two waves of the sea.
Quick now, here, now, always--
A condition of complete simplicity
(Costing not less than everything)
And all shall be well and
All manner of thing shall be well
When the tongues of flames are in-folded
Into the crowned knot of fire
And the fire and the rose are one.
The Little Gidding is the last of T. S. Eliot's Four Quartets. For a good biographical site on Eliot and some analysis of his poetry, go to the Academy of American Poet's website.
I first experienced Journey when they had just cut their first album and was on TV's "Midnight Special" along with Eddie Money. This was sometime in the late 70's ('77, '78, ?), I remember Journey played "Wheel in the Sky" and Eddie Money Sang "Hold on to Me" 😁 P.S.- Got to see Journey in concert twice, once University of Dayton arena, and the other at Louisville's Freedom Hall.
The glamour for a band really is just that couple hours on stage.
Yup. Most of the rest is constant travel, cramped quarters on the tour bus as likely as not, truck stop food, rehearsals, sound checks, and trying to stay in optimal health through all of it.
"The Voice" Nothing more needs to be said.
Another power ballad. Great channel ladies.
Iron Maiden found a simple solution for touring. Since they had their own 757 then 747-400, they simply brought their spouses and kids with them! This way they could keep their touring schedule and spend time with family in between shows. Not sure why other bands had separation issues like this.
I My job sent me all over the the mid-west/ Southeast only getting home weekends (I traveled and repaired all kinds of nasty, nobody else wants to work on/can't work on, industrial/commercial automated equipment, some of it the size of Dinosaurs). I and Sweetie always kept our love strong, actually it wasn't hard at all, we just accidentally hit life's lottery. But I've seen it many times where it did break co-workers marriages, the road has it's many temptations. 😊
Beautiful girls, good video 📸🎥
Performing 5-6 nights every week for 10-12 months
The piano player wrote this for his wife
If you want to get a taste of Steve Perry’s incredible vocal range, check out 1984 live in Houston, Mother, Father, Sister.
I worked with this band a few times. We played 'em in a softball game once. They won. One time Robert Fleischman stressed out my car speakers while I was giving him a ride to the airport. No harm done. LOL. I worked for one the biggest promoters in the country back in the day & we did shows all over the place. I was rarely home. I was in my 20s & single. Sometimes girlfriends, sometimes not. ;o)
Glad this made it to TH-cam!. I’m being lazy and copying and pasting my comment on this video from Patreon: Thank you for reacting to this incredible song! It is my favorite Journey song. Everything from Steve Perry's powerful voice to the keyboards to the guitar to the lyrics. Great song! Many years ago, I used to play one of their songs on the piano from the Infinity album. I can't remember if it was Anytime or The Winds of March. I really liked both songs. This album came out in 1977. I played it around that time period. I am very rusty on the piano and keyboard. I played the guitar as a second instrument. I should really get back into it. My mother's side of the family is saturated with musical talent from my mother to my grandfather to my great grandfather and so on. My grandfather, Jake Hart, had a group called Jake Hart and friends. They mostly played in his home state of North Carolina.
Hi Eric, great comment! It must have been incredible to grow up with so much musical talent. Hope you start playing again. 😊
@@generationgapreacts Thank you, and thank you for your encouragement. I believe I will start playing again one day soon.
I grew up on journey! Check out mother, father live in Houston. Imagine listening to this on 8 track
Another band like Journey from that era that’s great is Def Leppard. They have a drummer who has one arm and uses his feet to do what his arm would do. They have some old songs like “Armageddon It”, “Rocket”, “Pour Some Sugar on Me”, “Love Bites”, “Two Steps Behind”, Let’s Get Rocked” and some new stuff like “We Belong”, “Let’s Go”, “Undefeated”, “Kick” and “Fire it Up”. In May they are rereleasing some of their music sung with an orchestra backing them. They just released one song of the album “Animal”.
My ALL TIME FAVORITE JOURNEY song!
You should react to journey
Still they ride live 1983 in budakon
Mother father
Live in Houston Texas 1981
Wow you won't regret it
To this day the number one requested romantic song in the world is journeys open arms, it has more requests on Valentine's Day and for lovers than any other song in rock history.
Another great one. As a "rocker" little kid (AC/DC. Judas Priest, Scorpions, etc) at that time, you did not want to admit you liked Journey and especially a love song. Didn't matter, this one is timeless and ingrained in your soul. Beautiful. I agree with some of the other posts that Steve Perry has one of the greatest and most recognizable voices in rock history. Just how you know Freddie Mercury on the first word, you know Steve Perry the same. Can't compare to anyone else.
I seen Journey in the early 80's. Definitely one of the best live shows l was at. They are a close second to Rush and Peter Gabriel both bands you should check out.
Nicely said ladies 🙌🏼
Strange seeing Steve Perry with a mustache. Like Michael Caine with horn rimmed glasses.
Neal Schon was a guitarist for Santana. He and Greg Rolie quit Santana. They founded Journey. Santana, Journey and I were born in San Francisco. I grew up listening to both bands.
Faithfully was written by Jonathan Cain. He is on piano and synth. This was released in 1983.
Drums by Steve Smith. 🥁 Same year, 1983. Faithfully song sounds like Heaven. Written by Bryan Adams and Jim Vallance. BA needed a drummer to record Heaven. His drummer Mickey Curry was not available because he was required by a prior contract to play with another musician. Steve Smith happened to be in town, New York. Thus, Heaven sounds like Faithfully.
Steve Perry was the lead singer.
The lead singer now is Arnel Pineda. Neal Schon discovered AP on the Internet!
In 1984, the late Prince called Jonathan Cain to have him listen to Purple Rain because he thought it sounded like Faithfully and didn’t want to step on any toes. JC said Purple Rain was inspired by Faithfully but not copied. JC gave a big thumbs up! 👍RIP Prince.
Suggested videos: 1 Journey performs Open Arms live. 2 Steve Perry sings Foolish Heart 3 Bryan Adams sings Heaven.
TY one of my favorite song of all time!
Ladies during this time period there was also Bryan Adams, you have to list the live version at Wembley when he does EVERY THIND I DO..... ITS A MUST
Just discovered you guys. Enjoying your reactions. You really need to react to any of the live in Houston concert videos. Especially Don’t Stop Believing or Mother, Father.
The keyboardist Jonathan Cain wrote the entire song for his then wife. Unfortunately, they ended up divorcing sometime in late 80's.
Watching this video makes me wonder if bassist Ross Valory told Steve Perry what Deep Purple's legendary keyboard player Jon Lord (RIP) told then new arrival and future Whitesnake superstar David Coverdale: "Only one person in Deep Purple is allowed to have a moustache, and that person is me!"
Don Henley of the Eagles has a staff of over 60 people scouting for people who use their music. He just doesn't get the idea of Fair Use
Great reaction..try mother, father by journey….or try Pink Floyd Mother
I will check it out 😊
@@generationgapreacts if you do mother father live in Houston is the best, and still they ride live in Tokyo
A lot of guys could only wish to sing like steve perry but most of us sing like banshees.
Perhaps, but certainly not Eric Clapton, Robert Plant, Eddie Vedder, and Mick Jagger.
BACK TO THE DAY WHEN BANDS ACTUALLY WROTE GOOD SONGS.
Great reaction, ladies! React to Disturbed, “The Light” official video…great song and a great message!
Can u 2 review all of Steve Perry songs like o sherrie and foolish heart and Journey songs?
Eagles are notorious for blocking their videos.
Very nice reaction, girls.
If anyone is wondering why they can't see a live stream, it may be that you need to use a VPN and access Gap's channel from OUTSIDE of North America. e.g. Can't get Momma Gap's Birthday stream in Canada or the USA; go to Germany and it 'magically' pops up. This may also be true for more than just live streams.
Don’t forget about the military who are away from home a lot and Sonoma don’t come home. Oh and thank you for remembering pilots because I am a pilot.
Now you will know how us truck drivers feel for weeks at a time
So true! Truck drivers are not given enough credit for all their work!
Steve Perry experienced burnout... He just could not do it anymore. He's human like all of us. But.. Journey gave us alot of great music during the early 70's and 80's...
Back in those days that how they did their job.
Please react to Barry Gibb and Barbra Streisand live
singing Guilty. Also Kenny Rogers singing live Lady.
or Lionel Richie and Diana Ross singing Endless Love ?
Truck drivers do it constantly
I drive a tractor trailer. Being gone can be hard
🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡
Steve Perry is known as the voice In your neck of the woods, and down under we call John Farnham the voice. Both singers up there if not regarded as the best
Still think this is there best song. Well this and Separate Ways
Now try this song . I'll never let you go by steelheart
He's known as the voice for obvious reasons I fell in love with this band in the 80s and I'm ashamed to say they got me into quite a few sexual encounters
Listen to if tomorrow never comes by Garth Brook
Listen to I'll hold your hand very sad
If you are in the mood for something different, please react to Patty Gurdy's cover of 'Bad Habits' by Ed Sheeran. Oh, and if you want to hear nore from Chance in Home Free, he's heavily featured in their cover of 'In The Blood' and 'Think A Little Less'
