ABOUT…
I am Rebecca and I am one heck of a passionate vocal coach/singer/songwriter/impressionist/health/fitness/self- improvement/anything that makes me smile!! I love anything vocal/singing related and geek out on it every day. I want to motivate and inspire others to follow their dreams…corny? Well maybe but it’s true. So what’s motivating me?? I had a huge tumour removed summer 2017 and my ovaries and fallopian tubes. The tumour was the size of a 20 week baby!! However, despite not being able to walk for a couple of weeks, and feeling generally awful…. It has made me create and do what I love! It wasn’t an easy time but I won’t let fear dictate my life. I didn’t think ‘why me’, there are plenty of horrific issues people have to deal with…it’s not always smooth sailing. It’s true when you hear, ‘Life is short’, the crazy thing is, I am glad it happened…I appreciate life even more and practice gratitude everyday…It’s so easy to get caught up with the little things…and I do sometimes, but look at the bigger picture, will it matter in a year or two…?
Also thank you for all your support. It means a lot.

He recorded the studio version in one take. That’s how amazing Steve Perry is.
Where you hear this ??
Jon Cain said it during one of the Journey -Professor of Rock videos.
The crazy thing is.. the last 20 secs of the song sounds better live in comparison to the studio version. I swear Steve Perry is a freaking angel.
Live. It's live. Can you do this live? Wow.
Only genius can do it
I would argue that the end of that song is the greatest vocal performance ever. Steve Perry is an absolute legend. Thank you for this.
I was never sure it wasn’t a synth... that’s awesome
@@timgove5337 Journey were the kings of make out rock, LOL !!!
I would argue you have never heard Dimash Kudaibergen sing
@@rykehuss3435 I have but in my opinion He doesn't top Steve Perry
Did we just become… Brothers?
Rebecca, I was at this concert (The Summit- Houston TX) I still remember to this day walking out of the concert hall thinking I saw/heard someone so special we might not see again!
Mike P That sounds like so much fun! I'm gonna see them next year! Can't wait!
Mike, I specifically remember walking out of Rosemont Horizon, Chicago ILL 1986 Raised on Radio concert that ended with FINAL song Faithfully, I was higher than a kite. Journey live with SP was heaven. When I die I want to go to Journey heaven and listen to music until eternity 😉
You won't get STEVE PERRY. Not good
@@summermcpherson8209 im seeing them in Cleveland in May so fucking pumped even thought i grew up in the 00's
You were so lucky ! I remember watching it on HBO in 1981 and saw them myself in 1983 - Man those were the days !
This is his best vocal performance. He was untouchable this era
comicozy87 I love the live version of “Girl Can’t Help it” as well.
It ranks right up there with Sweet & Simple.
Why can't this night go on forever from Raised on Radio is a great vocal performance, one of my favorites!!
@@thomashumphrey4953 omg!! My favorite vocal on any album!
@@flightoffancylady4809 That was from the Mountain-Aire Festival 1986. "I'll Be Alright Without You" was also shot at that same show. Another amazing live version.
And to think that was probably Perry on an average night! Steve Perry is a living LEGEND and quite honestly one of the greatest talents to ever have graced this planet.
Steve Perry did sing with utter joy, and we heard him with the same joy. What a voice, like no other. Such emotion and power.
Perhaps Steve's greatest live vocal. The band was ON for this show and this song in particular. No auto-tune, no high tech. Just God given ability on stage. For me, the greatest males rock vocalist of all time, hands down. Also, one of my favorite Journey songs. Very different from their other stuff. Amazing! Could you imagine a band producing this incredible sound today, using old tech? I don't see it.
I was there and the electricity that night was magical! It's been almost 40 years and I can still remember that night!!!
@@mikep5695 I wasn't at this concert but I saw them in Virginia on same tour. It was just as incredible.
I saw them this tour and they were amazing. Thanks for the memories
Yeah. This whole album was fantastic and this performance was truly phenomenal.
@@mikep5695 WOW! Lucky you.
Neil Schon said that Steve Perry did this song in one take in the studio version. ONE TAKE!!!!
I never realized how powerful his voice was until I started watching these reaction videos....
I just knew Steve Perry's performances were spectacular ....I love how you break down his vocal technique.
I am even more impressed now with his greatness.
When it comes to tone, delivery, range and vocal stamina. Steve Perry is the first and final answer in rock. Not even Mercury can sing in the range with the finesse beauty and EASE like Perry.
first and final? nah. you need to listen to more music.
@@wig-pw3fj okay sure i listen to tons of music and i like what i like, Jesus
@@wig-pw3fj youre the only dissenting voice to my comment, but go off
Dude I'm sorry but Freddie in his prime is right there man....
Mark Free is...
JOURNEY was never the same after he left
Amen.
No band would be the same after losing a vocalist of God caliber.
Spot on David!
But thanks for arnel pineda
@@cyrusrocks2679 He is a good imitator but he doesn't have the soul and I have actually seen them multiple times with him and the last guy. But they also lost Perry's song writing abilities, he really was the one who steered the ship during there most successful years you could tell just how much he influenced them on his own solo stuff and the records after he left.
I believe this was filmed in Houston and the next stop was Dallas (or vice versa). I was lucky enough to be in the audience and see it performed live. The guy could hold an audience in the palm of his hand for two hours.
I saw them 2 weeks before the Houston concert. I saw them in 79’ a couple times but this particular show’s pace was incredible. On par with professional athletes. When I heard they recorded Houston, I knew then why the pace was quicker...they had to get all the songs into a certain timeline. I saw numerous rock bands in the late 79’s and 80’s and Journey was my all time favorite. Of late, I saw RUSH before they retired and their technical musicianship was par to none. RIP Professor Peart.
This was filmed in Houston 1981.
Such a timeless voice! Journeys time with frontman Steve Perry, was.. Well simply untouchable.
Well said my friend 👍👍 He is Entirely the reason I started singing.
@@Voxshadow73 👍
@@billk9628 well we have 12 now that understand.😁👍
Steve Perry is perfection. He’s an amazing performer, I envy all that got to see him perform live.
Steve Perry is unmatched....OMG...that final belt.....it was angelic.... flawless performance.
As great as this song is on the studio album....this performance was even better.
Great to see a new generation being blown away by The Voice!
Yes, that indeed was emotional for me to watch. Consider this was before computers invaded our everyday life, before you could cheat your way through a music performance with pitch correction and backing tracks. That sound you heard was exactly what those 5 people, with their voices, hands, feet and fingers created. Nothing they did there was easy to do, including singing and playing an instrument at the same time, yet they made it look easy. Takes years to be able to do that! At that point in their careers, they were probably thrilled to hit that stage night after night, to smack people in the faces with the sound they created.
Yes, you said that so well. 5 people with their voices and instruments, and that's it, nothing else. All heart and soul. Their emotions and music conveyed to us as only these 5 people can. Journey was/is one of the best rock bands to ever grace our planet!!!!!
This is live and still better than a ton recorded in a studio....amazing....I'm speechless.
Speechless indeed. There are no words. All I could do was cry.
FINALLY someone else that appreciates that end piece. Goose bump inducing!
As today..not Arnel.. not Augeri..not scott soto...nobody period can do the end of that song like Steve Perry!!! Goosebumps!!
@@joseemedina7219 totally agree /that song is breath taking.❤❤❤ 👍
@@joseemedina7219 -You forgot Deen. Deen could do that for sure. The guy in the Journey tribute band Voyage, who was at one time going to replace Perry, also does it at his shows. But, yes, Steve is a vocal miracle.
@@wordragon
He's covered the song, thy play a synth track for that end bit, Deen doesn't attempt it
Duper Super -Deen’s chest register is high enough to sing Perry’s mixed parts meaning his head voice extends high enough to sing it. I have never seen Deen sing in his head voice so he just probably doesn’t want to do it and as a drummer first wants to focus on the drumming for that part of the song.
The guy from Voyage does it pretty perfectly when they do the song.
The voice gave it 110% every show
Steve Perry is such a godsend and has an amazing gift! Effortless ❤
His voice is AMAZING but he’s also just a joy to watch. There’s a man living his dream
Steve " the Voice " Perry is the best male Voice in human History
I don’t care what anyone says. I’ve never heard someone sing every song LIVE. Better than the studio version. Steve seriously is. THE VOICE
I was a teenager in the 80's during Journey's golden age, and I'm happy to say I appreciated what I was experiencing at the time. It was just that good.
I remember vividly buying this album the summer it came out back in 81, I had just finished 8th grade and was heading to high school later that year and Journey literally exploded into the 80's with this album. The iconic Don't Stop Believing, "just a small town girl, living in a lonely world, she took the midnight train to anywhere", and Open Arms was in heavy rotation on the radio; but I loved the deeper tracks on this album that included Mother, Father and my favorite Still They Ride. I have such fond memories of the 80's, it truly was a pivotal time for me both as a teenager and a musician.
I had just finished 10th grade but remember that summer as you do. I also remember when this concert was shown on MTV. My friend recorded it on this thing called a "VCR" (lol) and we watched it almost everyday for months!! I lived in the Bay Area where Journey is from and got to see them 3 times on this tour. When i look back, i feel so incredibly fortunate to have grown up and witnessed in real time, Journeys' "heyday" as well as so many others.!! :-)
Who's Crying Now also had heavy airplay during that time.
@@algallego if I'm not mistaken, Don't Stop Believing, Who's Crying Now and Open Arms were the first three singles released from that album
Mother Father and Still They Ride, are 2 of the most underrated songs on the Escape album!!! And they are my most favorite on the album right next to the song Escape!!
Me too! I was 16 in 1981, and would give almost anything to go back to that time knowing what I know now!! Woww..
If you haven’t seen this entire magical concert you should! Grab some wine, light some candles and be prepared to rock! Journey, the best!!
Great review and reaction perhaps my favorite vocalist/song writer/musician. He stated in an interview that this song was the hardest to perform live and he actually hated knowing it was being recorded. He was a perfectionist. Have a wonderful day.
Arguably the best vocalist of all time!
In rock I agree but there’s plenty of other vocalists who are up there in other genres
There is no argument Steve Perry is the best. Whoever wants to argue this fact you’ve already lost before the argument even started!!!
That was him. Hitting the high note at very end of the song
Steve's voice, hard work and excellence is amazing to behold. However...he sings from his very soul...up from his feet, thru his body and out of his mouth...the osund has a clear gateway...he holds nothing back...that is why we feel it with every fiber of our being. On top of that...he is a sweet, kind and humble man. I just love him...always have. One of God's special gifts to us all
Steve Perry has an amazing voice. Can't stand Journey without him.
Thank you. Feel the same.
Agree
There is no Journey now that he is not with them.
It's a great cover band without him.
Listen to the 3 albums prior to Perry and it will change your mind. It's how Journey was mean't to be before they got commercial and pop-centric.
It’s very difficult to imitate a legendary singer like Steve Perry...anyone can sing journey song..but not as powerful and soulful like Steve Perry...❤️❤️❤️
Wanna bet? The legend can never be replaced but ck this, ever heard of voyage...
th-cam.com/video/G7WIFlYU7sQ/w-d-xo.html
Steve Perry takes singing to a whole new level - untouched / unmatched / unsurpassed to this day. Amazing. ❤️ Great reaction, his performance takes my breath away.
That's why he is called "The Voice"!
The Voice. Unmatchable. Timeless.
His voice was from other world. fantastic ¡
Journey ..... after the fall..... you’ll love it
No autotune there, just pure talent.
He is so beautiful!!!
That's why he's dubbed "the Voice "!
Paul Rodgers is called "The Voice'. I love Steve Perry also but Paul has had that nickname long before Steve. :)
@@numberonepun4126 hmm, but there is really no comparison. Steve is in a league of his own. Perry also does go well far enough when Roger's was his highest and Perry I believe represents it best being "the voice".
Love Steve Perry! He is not only the GREATEST SINGER. EVER, he is so beautiful I enjoy watching him just as much as listening to his amazing voice. I watch this video often and many others of Steve/journey. Timeless voice! Timeless songs!
I was a senior in high school in 1981. Journey and Steve Perry was IT for my friends and me. I’m 56 now and he still gives me goose bumps when he sings. The best rock singer period!!!
One of the greatest vocalist ever! Saw them in the early 80s on this exact same tour for Escape album. Incredible!
So glad Rebecca, that you enjoy one, if not THE greatest tenor rock voice in the history of rock and roll....absolutely my favorite song...power,..strength..and great pitch,..holding such high notes flawlessly...just the very best....enjoy
this is the best song of range you will ever hear in this lifetime of music ever recorded..this doesnt set the bar,,this is the bar,just be happy you were able to hear it in your life time.because there will never be any thing like this ever to be heard again,he is a comet shooting through the sky at 20,000 miles an hour and just be happy you were a live to hear it.
Mt crowley interesting do u know the name of his daughter ? ????????
Outstanding my friend. Fly the friendly skies.🙂
@@scottdavidson526 lol big time
@@scottdavidson526 hey leave it to beaver and your better than me
On the studio version, he recorded this song in ONE take. Although, the live version is incredible, to do this song in one take is amazing. Do you think he ever gets tired of being told he’s the greatest vocalist ever? 😊
Yes Steve Perry is unbelievable. He could do no wrong back then. And props to the incredible band.
He has such a huge vocal range and style. I can listen to Steve Perry all day. His solo work is also really amazing. “She’s Mine” “You Should Be Happy” “Foolish Heart” “Oh Sherrie” “You Better Wait” and “Young Hearts Forever” ...
His range is about 2 to 2 1/2 octaves.
James Rudd nope 3 octaves F#2-A5 www.concerthotels.com/worlds-greatest-vocal-ranges
There isn't a video for it but just a audio but check out Journey Sweet and Simple if you want to hear Steve Perry's range
Love that song! Dixie Highway too!
One of my favorite songs and one of my favorite bands ever
I saw Journey during this tour in 81 in Hampton VA. Concert was sold out 15k seat arena but we managed to sneak in...what a thrill and what an amazing show even from behind the stage!
Your energy and passion is so contagious! I love it! And to think that Journey with Perry played upwards of 200 shows a year for a decade. No wonder the pressure eventually got to him. I've heard him compared to world class opera singers who perform a few shows a year to preserve their voice.
yes Rebecca youre right, we WILL say he is the best. he just is
I grew up listening to Journey and also have watched the documentaries of this band. It's difficult to believe Steve Perry was out fixing chicken/turkey coups and he was about to quit performing before he got hooked up with Journey.
Also Steve wasn't only a front man. He wrote and helped write a lot of Joirney's music. He's definately gifted.
Aaron Wilcox he also produced the albums Raised on Radio, Journey Greatest Hits 1 and 2 as well as his solo albums Street Talk and Traces.
Song SWEET AND SIMPLE WLL BLOW U AWAY.
I feel this song was his best performance I've ever heard. Masterful and bold yet sweet and caring . You can tell he knows he can blow your mind with his amazing voice any time he wants and hit all the notes perfectly:o I'm so thankful I got to see them in the early 80's.
Ohhhh Steve Perry has always been one of my favorite singers❤️. His voice is just freaking phenomenal and the emotion that comes through his singing is just amazing. I don't know why I always focus on when he gets those belter notes out he tilts his head to the right side. I'm like yeah dude whatever gets those beautiful notes out! I always love watching him sing Foolish Heart and Open Arms...all the feels!
Always thought the very end “angelic voicing” as you put it was synthesized until I saw them in concert. Perry is absolutely special.
Steve Perry is a legend. Unique, fantastic, phenomenal, incredible voice. 👌👌👌👌👌 Euphoric sensation to listen to him, as you mention in your video. You bring back great souvenirs and feelings in some of our minds with this post. He is not only good technically, but he has that "magic touch and tone" that optimizes the emotions that he literally "throws violently" to his audience and this is SO AMAZING to feel that while listening to a voice! I really loved this reaction / analysis video, thanks for sharing this with us! I hope that other great singers can bring that level of magic eventually! Best Regards from your friend François in Montreal, Canada! 🎼🃏🎶🎵🙏👍👍👍👏👏👏👌👌👌💛😁🌠
He’s still releasing music today, I would recommend you check it out. The tone is still there 20 years later.
You should listen to how his voice is now. I recommend "We're Still Here" off Steve Perry's solo album Traces. At 70 years old, he still blows away a bunch of other singers more than half his age, even if his voice is a bit raspy now.
Agreed.
He can barely sing now. Sounds like an awful lounge act. Really bad.
@@jamesrudd8705 Oh please. Get back under the bridge you nasty troll. lol
@@oscarjetson128
His voice is shot. He refuses to even try to sing live. His new material is boring.
He was great. No doubt about that. But those days are long gone.
James Rudd you’re such a jealous jerkwad. I’m a new fan and bought 3 songs from Traces. His voice isn’t shot.
Steve Perry is a phenomenal vocalist Rebecca, he is unique among rock singers.
I couldn't agree with you more. Unfortunately his voice isn't as strong anymore due to lack of use for personal reasons. You can still tell its him when he sings though.
@@twizz8754 I know he's had issues for a while now with his voice, but what a voice.I suppose there is no halting the age process.
@@shargram That's true. I think I also read/heard that while he was still with Journey, he was singing in quite a high key which didn't help matters. Still a distinctive voice though.
@@twizz8754 His range was incredible, crystal clear and precise delivery, no one could hope to maintain that kind of standard.
@@shargram You're right there. I still love his voice now even though its weakened. There will never be another voice like it.
Been listening to Journey for 40 years, they're my all-time favorite group. This will always be Steve Perry's best vocal performance. "Mother, Father" is a BRUTAL song to sing and he acts as if it's a stroll through the park. I always wished we'd have gotten to hear more of Steve's beautiful falsetto voice, but the style/genre of Journey just didn't lend itself to that sound at the time.
I'm glad you loved it so much, Rebecca! Love your channel!
What an outstanding performance and brilliant vocal range and capability shown by the one and only Steve Perry. Thank you #
RebeccaVocalAthlete for bringing the unforgettable songs of Rock music once again to the TH-cam realm (:
His voice on Good morning girls is unbelievable.
Definitely agree on that - would love to see Rebecca react to Good Morning Girl.
Thanks!!! Love that you actually saw my request on this!!
Love this! Steve Perry has amazing vocals and showmanship! So admire the explosive talent in this band! You should check out their live version in Largo 1980 Like a Rock/Line of Fire. So good!
Another good one to check out from Journey is “Somethin’ To Hide”.
Finally, a review of one of Perry's best live performances! Love it.
I told you this song was a Masterpiece!!!! The ending always gets me, when he tries to pry the mic away from his mouth!!! I'm so glad you reacted to this song!! You should react to Who's Cryin' Now from the same concert!!!!!!!! ............ I love my Steve Perry!!
First time hearing Steve? Yeah he does that to me too.
Saw them in concert. Steve’s energy was freakin’ amazing! Journey was never the same once he left.
Same can be said for Dennis Deyoung Styx not the same since his Departure (Ha ha Journey connection and pun)Fan of Both...Rock On!!👍👍👍👍
Tina Reid I'm so jealous! I love Journey! What was your favorite song they sang?
Goosebumps!!! Love you Steve ❤️❣️❣️
I saw them live in 81 and 86....unbelievable live performances!
The best live performing album or CD, as we call it today, is Captured. You will definitely enjoy that one vocally, and Schon rips on the guitar as always ;) lol. Oh yes, and on that CD, you will love Dixie Highway for sure ;)
I was HOPING you'd get around to critiquing this performance!!! YAY!!! You validated what I've always felt about this special live performance of my favourite rock singer.
One of my favorites...I’m an old dude...been listening to them since the 70’s...yeah I’m old. I was touring same time.... I saw them live n Steve made me cry! I’m lucky to have lived from rocks infancy to its end...I’ve seen the best....love ur analysis....take care and bless and ur family...
In an interview someone asked freddie mercury what it was like being the best vocalist in the world. Freddie replied "I don't know, ask steve perry"
Not true. He never said that. And only Perry loons would actually believe that.
Wow, what a compliment....I think so but sure is great to know Freddy agreed!
@@anncain1104
Freddy never said that. It's amazing people can be so gullible as to believe that.
James Rudd He actually DID say exactly that. The interview is not even hard to find. It’s on TH-cam.
James Rudd Why call someone gullible without even verifying if the footage of Freddie saying it existed? Like I said, it’s easy to find.
I'm so happy you enjoyed this performance! It's one of my favorite Journey songs!
check out his song I stand alone.. so great.!!!!
Just love Journey, Steve has such a great voice. Yes, their musicianship is great.
I watch this video constantly. Made me a huge Steve Perry fan.
Can't get enough of that song!
He has such an amazing voice.. Not many can compete
Robert Rowton no one can compete after this breathtaking performance.
Steve Perry is blessed with the gift of a golden voice ! You should listen to " People Are Places " When Steve , Greg Rolie & Neil Schon all trade leads.
David Ellis thats kind of a deep cut most people wouldn’t like lol .. but it is a great track and they did do it live :)
My fave from the band.
@@Jihavoh777 Yes it definitely has the Roy Thomas Baker Production & yes they pulled it off live & that would probably be what she would react to. People & Places !
David, you're a true fan. Good suggestion.
That was one of my favorite Journey songs.
Thanks for doing another Journey song, so many really.
Best vocalist ever!
I was extremely lucky to see their last concert together before Steve left! Simply awesome!!!
Foolish Heart is in-cred-i-ble!! Give it a listen
I absolutely love your enthusiasm while watching this vid..... brilliant and hard not to be utterly impressed with Steve Perry
Haha glad you finally took notice of my many requests for you to check this out - Steve “The Voice” Perry, just wow. Job done, thank you. X
I love watching people get as excited about a song as I do.
Rebecca you are fun to watch! Nice to see the reaction(s) you have!!
This is the one I was waiting for!
"...angel...!!"
"Is that him??!"
Nuff said.
Steve perry has always been my vocal idol! I've done this song when I was in a cover band. It's an amazing song! And no one sings it better than steve perry!
Steve Perry, Geoff Tate and Miljenko Matijevic my three all time favorites and you've covered them all.
An impeccable historic performance that will *never* be surmounted!
