I suspect about 20 years from now you will probably look back at a lot of these songs and appreciate them more🙄😄❤️ which is the usual course of things😊
If you hear any soul or R and B, note that Steve Perry shares the same birthday, but different year, as his influence the late Sam Cooke, RIP. Written by Steve Perry and Randy Goodrum. Released in 1984. Nearly 10 years before this, RG wrote You Needed Me for Anne Murray, her most famous song she sang! 😃 Also in 1984, John Waite released Missing You. In 1981, he was the singer who could have sung Open Arms but rejected it! His band The Babys broke up! 😖The keyboardist Jonathan Cain, who wrote the music to Open Arms, joined Journey. He introduced it to Steve Perry. He accepted it, wrote the lyrics and sang it! 🤯 Anne Wilson wanted to sing Almost Paradise with Steve Perry but could not because he was writing this song and other songs for his solo album with Randy Goodrum. A TH-cam video short explains this. Here is the story on how SP met. RG thought that he was going to meet the lead guitarist 🎸 of Aerosmith. But daughter of RG got her poster of Journey and pointed who Steve Perry is! L 🤣 L. Steve Perry is NOT Joe Perry, lead guitarist of Aerosmith! L🤣L This funny 😄 story is in TH-cam. Steve Perry did not want to write songs on that same day. But RG insisted. RG writes mostly country music, a style different than rock or soul, 2 styles Steve Perry writes ✍. On that day, they wrote Foolish Heart, Oh Sherrie and She's Mine. Same year, Randy Goodrum wrote Who's Holding Donna Now ? for DeBarge. Randy Goodrum sings like Paul Simon. The latest singer for Journey is Arnel Pineda. He is from The Philippines. He sang with Philippine star-singers such as Morissette Amon and Julie Ann San Jose. 1 video is below. Suggested videos 📹: 1 John Waite sings Missing You 2 Steve Perry and David Foster perform I Stand Alone. 3 DeBarge sings Who's Holding Donna Now? 4 Anne Murray sings You Needed Me. 5 Arnel Pineda and Morissette Amon sing I Finally Found Someone. Aside. Speaking of Smokey, your voice resembles Smokey Robinson. 😀
@@TheDivayenta yes 👍 Katy Elizabeth chose Perry because she did not want people to be confused with actress Kate Garry Hudson, daughter of Goldie Hawn, the David Bowie effect. (He chose Bowie in order that people do not think he was the member of The Monkees 🐒 🐵 🙊 🙈.) The Band Perry is different: the siblings are white.

Check out Journey -Mother Father live in Houston the vocal acrobatics are incredible or Wheel in the Sky live in Osaka Steve plays around with that beautiful voice of his alongside Neil's guitar
For me this is a song about being lost as a kid in a different place than I was used to I'm from Florida but in California I heard this on my school bus because I didn't know my stop, so I was the last kid
Steve did this video in a single take. He is such a wonderful singer.
That voice. THE voice. If any list of the greatest singers of all time does not have him in the top ten - it's bogus. IJS...
Steve Perry is no joke

Bringing me back to the 80s !!!!

Did you know that the Perry’s- Joe, Steve and Katy- are all Portuguese American? The real name is Pereira and Steve’s family came from the Azores.

Sharon Bryant from Atlantic Star did a good cover of this. But this is the version for me…blue eyed soul
Yep, and because we love Atlantic Starr on this channel, it won't be long before he does Sharon Bryant's version.
