I believe that for the first time since he walked away from his music and his fans...Steve Perry acknowledged how hurt and saddened we the fans were at his leaving us. He said "we dig him" what an understatement. We love him passionately and waited for him patiently to return to us. We kept his music alive and he has returned to us with a new understanding of the true love we have and have always had for him. We did wait ... we have never gone away.I
He’s just so down to earth. And doesn’t realize how talented and loved he is. He has a voice , a gift we’ll never forget. And now he’s back , thank you 💖
Loved this interview!!! Steve was so comfortable and relaxed. Thank you Jim Kerr for not asking any Journey reunion questions. Steve you are beautiful inside and out and the most phenomenal singer of all time!!!
Thank you for this wonderful interview. I love Steve Perry because he is such a humble most kind hearted person that I would like to meet someday. He is an amazing singer and song writer and has been missed by so many people around the world. I am so happy he is back! All his songs on his new and past albums all have stories and meanings behind them, and that is why people just love him. He touches us with his music like no other musician can. I would love it if he would write an autobiography. Would like to hear more about his upbringing his adolescent years, the time when he was with Journey and after he left Journey when the Trial by Fire era ended. To me that was when he really went away for the last time. To me it really doesn't matter if Steve Perry tours in support of this new album, what matters to me is that he is back and I hope that he continues his new Journey with this new profound love he has found for music again.♡♡♡
When Steve sings that little song he made up you can get a little idea of his creative process. He talks a lot about a song having good "pocket". I wish there was a video of him playing drums. He is such a sweetheart. Thanks again Gary.
No Steve we don't just dig you. We simply adore you , love you, and I can't get enough of you. Your music and your personality is truly one of a kind. Know one has as much class as you Steve. Please believe that your fans think the world of you. I love your new music 🎶❤️ .and yes it's been a long time coming. But it,s been worth it. I love you Steve Perry forever and always your fan in Cleveland Ohio a million miles away from you 2020.
Thank you for this wonderful interview. I’ve never stopped listening to you Steve. You have always been my favorite. Beautiful voice, and gorgeous man. Your nose fits you perfectly. Thank you also for this new album. It’s beautiful. Do you realize how many women in this world who find you extremely attractive because you are. No worries about your nose my friend. God Bless ❤️
Gary thanks so much for this. One of the many reasons why I admire Steve Perry is because he's so humble.Unfortunately there are certain other so-called celebrities who are very arrogant and very self centred. It made me smile when Steve waved, thanked and clapped the live crowd while they were clapping him at the end.
Dear Steve, it’s the music industry that is happy to have you again ! And I feel very honored to live in a time when you get creative and are performing again , as your mesmerizing voice and charisma just makes us all feel good during the highs and the lows of our lives... So thanks again and keep doing what you do best! Hoping to one day being able to see you perform live!!! Kiss from Altea, Spain, I love it 🙌🎶🤟😉💝💪
Best interview of Steve Perry❤️...how much does he continue to pour his soul into his music to this day......so beautiful...music, at any point of his life truly never left him. We all love you, Steve!❤️❤️❤️
I have watched this a few times. I can't get enough of this man. He is so talented and his music is a blessing to my life. I just love him. Great talk sir.
Wow Gary what a great ,I hesitate too call it an interview, Steve seems so happy in his own skin now, more than he’s ever been I think and that’s why I hesitate too call it an interview it’s more like a chat ,he knows exactly who he is and he is totally comfortable with that.It makes him so much more open and I for one think he’s enjoying the bones off his resurgence. Wonderful!🎼♥️🇦🇺
I'm glad u said that cuz I was thinking the same thing. Every time I read these comments to and about Steve, and add my own, I think... "I wonder if he ever reads these. I wish I knew. I hope he does. It would be such a shame for a man to be so beloved and not know it. And all these expressions of love to go unreceived." So to hear him say that, makes me think he must have received the message. And I'm so glad. He gave 110% on stage to his fans and he's a kind-hearted humble guy who deserves to know how we feel about him. WE LOVE YOU, STEVE!!!!!
My name is Amy and I really don't think he ( Steve) has any idea how he truly makes his music makes us (the fans) feel. I went through so much truly in my life that his voice has helped me cope. He has truly helped me in so many ways for so long. Noone has or ever will take his place. I love him so very VERY much. I really want to finish my bucket list by seeing him just one time. I know uncle Steve is not getting younger and neither am I but it's nice to dream. I love you Steve and thank you for making my pain a little less. 😘❤️
As sad as it was when Steve decided to leave journey now I'm so Glad he did because like he said certain behavior, life style and Traveling the world has caused people their lives or taken a huge toll on them and they didn't age as well as Steve he's still good looking, so he had the wisdom to know when to hold em,when to fold em and when to walk away, getting old is a drag, no matter how many times he's asked the same repetitive questions about what he did the many years ago when he left journey, he's always so kind to explain over and over the same story he has told many times....
It takes alot of courage to quote'walk away from bad behaviors' good for you steve, we all know that there is too much of that going on in the world today, and its so sad that there is 'help for others' but they dont want to take it. We all know or lost a loved one to 'bad behaviors' as you call it
It's so inspiring that he regained his passion for music after so much time had passed. To everything there is a season. Sometimes you just have to be patient. So glad he's writing, recording and singing again.
STEVE PERRY👑 STILL THE KING'. I LOVE❤ THIS INTERVIEW.YOU DO ROCK. YOU AND ONLY YOU, ARE THE VOICE. A LEGEND. ALL YOUR FANS DIG YOU. AND WE ARE STILL HERE.🎙🎬🔊📀📽🎼🎵🎶🎼🎵🎶🎼🎵
Thank you Steve for continuing to do what you love 💕 which is making, writing and playing rock n roll music 🎶. Your parents, grandparents, stepdad, and true love 💕 would be so proud of how hard you worked to become successful and of the man you have become. I love 💕 you and your music 🎼 so much
I agree with the others, I think this is the best interview I have seen so far. Thank you for posting. He seems so comfortable and open. Jim Kerr is an excellent interviewer -- enjoyed the interview he did with Steve for his own radio program as well. I liked that the focused the questions on the current album versus Journey questions. Also, I am beginning to wonder if perhaps he might do another album and then maybe do a tour of that album, Traces and some of his earlier work. He talks in a lot of his interviews about having a lot of other material he wants to do. I would love to see him live. I would prefer he does smaller/more intimate venues versus stadiums. Maybe do a few nights at certain locations or even if he does a residency somewhere. What do you think?
Love this interview. It's one of the best ones. And yes Steve.....WE DIG YOU! You're so goofy😘 Can't wait for the tour. Looking forward to seeing you in Honolulu 2019❤🎶🎤🤙=^..^=
I am going to meet this incredible man one day! I just love you Steve Perry! You inspire me! Your music and life's philosophy remind me of my dreams and that indeed, dreams do come true. However, I love your humility! It is very sobering. Welcome back and please do not go away again! BY-the-way, I am a counselor too!!! Oh, and a former publicist. Holler, if you need anything! You rock!
Oh Geesh, I'm Always Late And A Dollar Short When Steve Perry Is Live On Radio Talk Shows....Arghhhh. Welcome back to music my love. You have been missed more than you know.
At 4:55 he starts singing A snippet of Under the Boardwalk from the Drifters and he sounds incredible, of course. There are still a few haters out there who claim that Steve can’t sing anymore and that the Traces album was recorded many years ago. SMH are you deaf?
Thanks Gary. It's good to see Steve chat. This will get me through the rest of my week. I know of some haters that are really going to try to go nuts over this video. I always tell them to dazzle us with their "Better than Steve Perry album" and we'll talk. Have yet to hear any of their tries. Steve definitely speaks for himself and if people just listen to all the interviews, I think they will get most of the answers that they spend so much time speculating on. Thanks again Gary. This was awesome.
Steve perry has always been one of my favorites as a teenager in 1987. His new album really is great. Thanks for your music. Your singing really helped me to feel comfortable to sing by myself as I really wanted to sing. I did go through alot of similar situations as per your interviews. Luv you man .looking forward to your new songs
Loved this interview so much. Steve's clearly enjoying himself in this interview. He looks upbeat and relaxed. He looks fab. Thank you Gary for sharing this with us. Keep up the great work.
Steve perry always gives such great radio interviews. He always says the most honest and heart felt thing. I love to listen to him. I learn new things from him every time he speaks. Steve you are perfect in everyway. Sometime what you think you need. Ain,t what you should have . Is something you said years ago. Still mean so much too me. I get so much good advice for you. And you don't even know it. You speak the truth. You missed your calling you should of had a phd.l will always love you Steve you are the man. I am your forever ❤️😻❤️ fan in 2020 Cleveland Ohio loves you. A million miles away from you.
Love him so much. oxoxox He makes me laugh because he always says he owes someone money for complimenting him. He is so humble and treats his fans with such love and that radiates right back to him. I do believe we would buy his biography if he would write one.
I believe that for the first time since he walked away from his music and his fans...Steve Perry acknowledged how hurt and saddened we the fans were at his leaving us. He said "we dig him" what an understatement. We love him passionately and waited for him patiently to return to us.

GOSHHH what a personality!!! He sounds like he would be fun to hang out with! A rare quality for celebrities nowadays

Totally amazing 😲
When Steve sings that little song he made up you can get a little idea of his creative process. He talks a lot about a song having good "pocket". I wish there was a video of him playing drums. He is such a sweetheart. Thanks again Gary.
Yes that little spur-of-the-moment song was powerful and he still has it.
What a great interview! Steve is so genuine! Love the Traces album and I hope to see him someday. ❤
Yes Stephen, we ALL dig you!!! And we'll ALWAYS love you!!!

"People dig me..".Oh how awesome was that statement by SP! I am glad he realizes that! Lol.
I'm glad u said that cuz I was thinking the same thing. Every time I read these comments to and about Steve, and add my own, I think... "I wonder if he ever reads these. I wish I knew.
