@@TruthSurge I don't know what pitch shifted really means or does, but you get all the inflections and ..IDK...spots right....new fan-this is as curious a thing as I have seen in a while......gotta see more
@@TruthSurge Seriously that was great ! You made it your own, your tone is fantastic it had a little twang to it that I really enjoyed.. Just awesome !
C.C. Rider yes your correct BUT, Steve did it live numerous times, easily. Back then, it was the real deal..... This is why Journey is in the Music Hall of Fame!
OMG …. WHO ARE YOU SIR?? As a die hard Journey fan and someone who believes that absolutely NO ONE should try to sing Steve (Sorry but even Arnel. He is an extremely gifted vocalist though). I've never heard anyone sing with the emotion of Steve. But you sir amaze me. The feelings and emotions I get throughout my body when I hear this song has never been duplicated with anyone but Steve until now. I watched your video 15 minutes go sir and it's still there …. thank you sir. You have a subscriber for life.
Steve Perry has one of the best vocals in the industry, but so are you my friend. You are truly an exceptional diamond in the rough and hope someone realizes that you belong on the big stage with many fans enjoying your voice. All the best and keep making them. Wow.
TruthSurge... I am truly just blown away at your vocal range. I shake my head at the end of every cover and then I search for another song that you do. Damn you just amaze us with each performance!
@@blonderider2650 TS even admitted to using the computer to make his voice sound higher. Steve Perry does not sound the same as he did in his youth but what you hear on his latest album is his voice the way it is now, NOTHING computer generated or tweaked, I happen to think this voice a little raspier sounds great !!
Wow!! Dude you need to audition for Americas Got Talent!! Journey songs are some of the hardest songs to sing and you absolutely nail it every time. I'd love to hear your version of mother father or send her my love!
thank ya. Well, I pitch my voice up so I couldn't do this live and I hate contests with every cell of my body. :) I might do another Journey tune. Did you hear Who's Cryin' Now? that I did?
Yes I did and they that's why I'm very impressed with your covers because you really nail these journey songs man, I wish I could. I mean even though you up pich your voice some it's still impressive. I mean even though you do upich it some you still have to have alot of vocal ability and range to pull off these tunes Great Job man!
I could only imagine your voice in your younger years I’m telling you something you already know your voice would of been worth millions real know real for real 👍
You made the song your own and that is awesome. We can always hear Steve Perry sing it the original way. I love your arrangement my friend. Brian, Rome Georgia
That's a great vocal performance of a very challenging song to cover well. There are lots of guys that can sing covers well, but few that can do Journey. I'm impressed!
This man did this cover for a woman he has never stopped loving. Like the ones we think about when we hear this song or sing along when we are alone pretending we are on stage singing to that one particular woman. Well done.
My wife and i danced our first song at our wedding to "Faithully" so it holds a very special place in our hearts. You brought back so many great memories with that performance. Incredible ! Thank you for posting. All your other videos are as amazing as this one.
Truthsurge, I heard this 5 years ago when you released it and it has remained in my memory because of your absolutely unmatched performance. I’ve never heard anyone rival the vocal challenges of this song like you have. I had to come back and appreciate your amazing delivery of this beautiful ballad this evening, as music is racing through my mind and my soul in my endless pursuit of excellence. You, Sir, have fed both. I truly hope you’re well. Blessings, Tom
ty! glad you enjoyed it! I had a really fun run for many years trying these old classic rock tunes. YT just gave me a little more incentive to try them since I had some outlet to upload the results. I know I screw up here and there and my singing technique is not pro but I still had fun doing them. I'm doing as well as I could expect from all the things that have transpired. best to you, too!
TS, you continue to amaze me with your musical and vocal prowess! A truly difficult song to sing, you delivered an impeccable performance. Your range is incredible. Can’t believe your hit those tweeters! Well done my friend!
I go back through your channel at least twice a month and watch the cover videos. This one is my favorite but they are all great. I enjoy them even more every time I see them. Such a killer voice!
I've been watching your videos for a couple days now. You have talent ozzing outta you. You're why Americas got talent was made. Your queen covers blew my mind. Awesome stuff.
My wedding song!! Love Journey. Met Steve Perry a couple of times working at a restaurant in North Carolina. Amazing, sweet man. This cover is fantastic!!
How do you not have over a MILLION VIEWS for every single video. Simply amazing skillz . I vote TRUTHSURGE 2020 THE VOICE WINNER. Now please go audition
Hey man, you sound awesome! In description you kinda beat yourself up a bit saying you dont sound like Steve Perry, but the thing about that is NOBODY sounds like Steve Perry, the guy is a damn vocal legend (easily top 3 vocalists in history). Watched some of your other videos and you sound pretty damn good. Shit, I wish I could sound that good. Keep these videos coming!
After watching the first one, oh Sherrie, I had to find more. Your truly an amazing 💓 man with great talent. Like they say, you dreams do come true. Your a winner no matter where you are in life. My favorite song of Journey ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
This is my ALL TIME FAVORITE SP-J hit!!! #1 in my book!!! Thanks again for allowing me to hear it in its greatness!!! (I realize at this point the likelihood of hearing Steve sing it again is null.)
I am hardcore Steve Perry but I think this guy has more soul and heart in his vocals. I could listen to this all day. Well done sir. Almost makes me want to pick up my guitar and start singing again.
Oh My... What a Heart Throb. This is one of Steve Perry's /Journey"s songs I have always Ioved. Surge My Dear Man your voice is so Beautiful! Thank You for Sharing. (Bluejean Baby)
I seriously love your videos man!! You're making me like alot of music I hadn't started to appreciate yet. As you know it's really tough right now for alot of us out here; yourself included I'm sure, with the lockdowns and such, but I truly hope you know what a positive influence your videos have on so many of our days :) Thanks for all the hard work.
They say that the road Ain't no place to start a Quiltin spree. Right down the line It's been you and me And lovin' a Quiltin man Ain't always what it's s'posed to be Oh girl, you stand by me I'm forever yours Quiltingly.
My fave Journey song and again,you would make Steve Perry very very proud. He does need to hear this. Amazing and keep doing the covers. I'm always left speechless.
i love these covers. Sounds amazing. But let's all remember...pitch- shifted.
I pinned your comment so everyone that reads these comments will know that I shifted my voice up via software. Thanks!
@@TruthSurge I don't know what pitch shifted really means or does, but you get all the inflections and ..IDK...spots right....new fan-this is as curious a thing as I have seen in a while......gotta see more
@@TruthSurge Seriously that was great ! You made it your own, your tone is fantastic it had a little twang to it that I really enjoyed.. Just awesome !
let's also remember.... original version recorded with multi-track mixing boards. everyone uses them.

Im so impressed. Beautiful cover of a timeless difficult song to sing. Totally made it your own. God has blessed you sir.
He raped me. I'm Twrri Simm I ns his wife. I live in noca Scotia and court happens next month. He also beat me to a pulp
TruthSurge... I am truly just blown away at your vocal range. I shake my head at the end of every cover and then I search for another song that you do. Damn you just amaze us with each performance!
One of my FAVORITE songs. YOU ABSOLUTELY ARE A OUTSTANDING VOCALIST!!
Steve Perry is the best vocalist I've ever heard. Are you Steve? No. But I'll tell you, you're pretty friggin awesome. Great cover.
thx!!
@@blonderider2650 Perry also did hundreds of performances over decades that blew out his voice. TS is the MAN but let's be fair.
Steve is the best for sure. But you sure aint no slouch sir.

Yeah it was awesome !!
I will forever think about skating to this song at the roller rink
I get so choked up when you belt out these timeless hits. Keep bringing it!

Crying is good. Helps take away the stress 🙂

You sir, I salute you
Man oh man! Such a great performance on this classic Steve Perry vocal. Whew!
Amazing.!!! I don't ever comment unless it's worth it. Great.
thanks! Yeah, I'm kind of critical, too.

This isn't cheating, it's passion + love = original sound of music. Don't ever stop main man 👍
