This is a beautiful ballad. Performed by the most talented singer. Steve Perry is unmatched by his romantic performances; he is soulful and heartfelt. A " Rock Star " for sure but he is so much more. 🌹
Steve Perry said the hardest song he ever sang live was "Mother Father" Listen to the 1981 Live Houston Concert version. Steve knocks it out of the Park. His vocals and the instrumentation in the song is amazing. If you do any other Journey, look for live versions from Houston Concert
We lived in Hanford for 25 years and twice met Steve Perry. Once at the Sizzler and second at a Chinese restaurant. I still have his autograph! Great, kind man.
You can't go wrong with Steve Perry And this love song. He's called the voice For this this reason he can sing with the best of them . Steve has a voice that never Faulters he sings with his heart and this song yes made me cry 😭😢 .. Oklahoma ❤️🙂
The golden voice ever until the end of the world 🌍 still the one And only no body can sing like Mr perry still beautiful man unic voice legend 💯💯💯💯💯❤️❤️❤️❤️👑👑👑👑👑🎼🎼🎼🎼
I'm used to your reactions not being interrupted, always waiting till the end with excellent commentary. I loved your 1st reaction of When you Love a woman when you did it with the video in large screen. I couldn't really see the words on this one. And watching Neal play his guitar solo, the orchestra, and Steve with all his emotion soaring is what I love about this video.
Remember folks, Chod has to stay within certain parameters to stay with us. If you'd prefer to see the video, just look it up yourself. Part of the joy comes from his reaction and appreciating new tunes we've loved for some time. ✌️❤
Oh you have to do the live version. You are missing the actual passion on their faces especially Steve’s. I just love Steve Perry he is my favorite song bird hands down. I have been a fan for 44 years and will continue til my last breath ♥️
I absolutely love that song. Next to Open Arms and When a Man loves a Woman, Missing You is that song that makes me miss every loved one that has fallen asleep in death, but I can't stop listening to it!!
John, the song is about the deep love a man has for his wife, and Steve has loved women in his life but he has never married. Maybe it was about a woman in his life, but Steve has said he never married because he saw all the band members of Journey go through divorce, some repeatedly. He saw what they went through emotionally and financially and didn't want to go through that experience. This song is so beautiful and he sings it with such emotion, wish the whole world would get to experience that kind of love.
@@estills4768 Your right, I've heard the same thing in interviews from both Steve and Jonathan, although Jonathan had the melody and the theme behind the lyrics, Steve did collaborate on the song with him to complete the song. What chemistry those two had a long with Neal because most all of Journey's play list from ' 77 to the completion of Trial by Fire were mostly all written by Steve, Jonathan,and Neal. What a gift to the word!
Any Winehouse in a vid, was walking down a street with a guy, a best friend and they were shootin' the crap and during the conversation he said, hey that's like the time my Mom and I were living with her boyfriend (name} and he said ya know, I really love your Mother and I want to marry her, I'm gonna write a song for her. Don't tell her, I want it to be a surprise and we talked for a long time and he spent the afternoon writing it. It was this song. He was the lead guitarist in Journey. Forgot the story till now.
Hey now!, we all know SP is the voice. But Neal hit it out of the park with his solo also. He always does. No two pieces ever sounds the same other than kicks ass. Am I wrong?
I can't think of a better song to play for when you're best. Cousin runs away with your wife We all wrote without you by journey. If you know any bodies got a dirty dog bass cup They might want to I might want to listen to that song by journey
The history behind the Album this song debut form is amazing. "Trial By Fire" 1997 was the first album written after Journey reunited from a 10 year separation in 1987. There was supposed to be a tour but Steve Perry's health made this tour fall apart and Steve has been separate from the band ever since. The fact this song was nominated for an Emmy is a testament to what these guys can accomplish as a group even after being apart for 10 years. glad you found this song.
You should watch the official video for this song. It shows them playing the song with an orchestra and Steve Perry signing it. Very cool. Much better experience (in my opinion) than the video with just the lyrics.
Not a deep cut. This was there biggest single off the 1996 Trial By Fire album. Went #1 on the adult contemporary charts and #12 on Billboard hot 100. Probably could have done better but they did not tour to support this album due to Steve Perry's hip injury and subsequent breakup with the band.
P.S. they ended up releasing 4 singles from this album, the first one was "Message Of Love", Then "When You Love A Woman:, "Can't Tame The Lion", and "If He Should Break Your Heart". You should check them out.
This is almost the perfect song but I keep thinking the lyric should not have been "my searchin ain't over" It should have been " My searchin's all over"
After much debate (within myself) I personally think Steve Perry is the GREATEST singer EVER... Freddie Mercury is second best.... I do love Freddie... but Perry.... No match...
You are not showing the video, so disappointing, because his face showed every emotion, love, loss. Steve, Neal and Jonathan were an unbearable as a team
He was in agonizing pain during the shooting of that video, the dancing sequences were spliced in out takes from his Strange Medicine videos. He couldn't use any painkillers for his hip and still perform, so they just packed him in ice between takes.
Steve Perry rips your heart out and hands it to you. Spectacular.
Best compliment ❤
Steve Perry’s voice will never be replicated!
the "VOICE" Steve Perry has the best voice in the last 100 years
You just can't go wrong with Journey or Steve Perry.
Journey was robbed when they didn't win a Grammy for When You Love A Woman.
Agree
Grammy's is scam
If this was in a movie, it should've been nominated for an Oscar.
They sure were
💯 fact
A perfect ballad, a perfect love song, a perfect voice. Steve Perry and Journey. 💜
That piano opening gets me every time. Im a 41 year old man... this song puts tears in my eyes. Absolutely beautiful.
Steve's voice and Neal Schon killing it on the guitar is awesome.
Steve perry the Best male voice ever no one cant touch Steve perry voice
This is a beautiful ballad. Performed by the most talented singer. Steve Perry is unmatched by his romantic performances; he is soulful and heartfelt. A " Rock Star " for sure but he is so much more. 🌹
The music video is powerful…long haired Steve Perry.” That guitar solo is crucial”….well said.
PURE GOD GIVEN TALENT
Your wife loves this song, I can tell by her expression
Why am i crying listening to this 🎧
Same reason I’m crying listening to it.
Because it is an emotional experience w/ Steve Perry & Journey…❤ I; too, am crying!
I get a natural high when I listen to this song 🎵💕👏🏻
Steve Perry's voice and Neal Schon's guitar are the most potent one-two punch in AOR history. Possibly in all of rock history.
The video of this song is amazing and moving.
Journey has two lead vocalists. Steve Perry and Neil Schons guitar.
Steve Perry said the hardest song he ever sang live was "Mother Father" Listen to the 1981 Live Houston Concert version. Steve knocks it out of the Park. His vocals and the instrumentation in the song is amazing. If you do any other Journey, look for live versions from Houston Concert
One of the producers for that song says that the studio version of that was done on the first take. Absolutely incredible
The best singer ever from Hanford, Ca
We lived in Hanford for 25 years and twice met Steve Perry. Once at the Sizzler and second at a Chinese restaurant. I still have his autograph! Great, kind man.
You can't go wrong with Steve Perry
And this love song. He's called the voice
For this this reason he can sing with the best of them . Steve has a voice that never
Faulters he sings with his heart and this song yes made me cry 😭😢 ..
Oklahoma ❤️🙂
Steve never married.
What a voice.
Legendary band,talent you don't see anymore
Your wife's smile and sway tells it all. She is in love and feels the song.
This music never come back! Beautiful 🤘🎶
You really need to see video when you are listening to Steve and Journey it’s unbelievable
The Voice (nuff said)
Always ready for a journey/Steve Perry reaction. Thanks!
The golden voice ever until the end of the world 🌍 still the one And only no body can sing like Mr perry still beautiful man unic voice legend 💯💯💯💯💯❤️❤️❤️❤️👑👑👑👑👑🎼🎼🎼🎼
Such a great song
great album.
Steve Perry the voice of the 80's
The smile and the head tilt say it all - beautiful song
I'm used to your reactions not being interrupted, always waiting till the end with excellent commentary. I loved your 1st reaction of When you Love a woman when you did it with the video in large screen. I couldn't really see the words on this one. And watching Neal play his guitar solo, the orchestra, and Steve with all his emotion soaring is what I love about this video.
You're companions' expression say's it all. Priceless!!! I felt that through her smile 🥰
Neil Schon is the most melodic guitarist in rock.
Definitely. The other one I can think of Steve Lukather of Toto.
There is not a singer or guitarist from today's young generation that could even dream of performing this song!
Great voice great song! Always have been a Steve Perry fan.
Jon Cain makes all perfect JOURNEY ballads possible!
A must play song at every wedding
I love how guys totally geek out over this song.
Glad I am not the only one.
Journey and Steve Perry FOREVER
Beautiful voice
Remember folks, Chod has to stay within certain parameters to stay with us. If you'd prefer to see the video, just look it up yourself. Part of the joy comes from his reaction and appreciating new tunes we've loved for some time. ✌️❤
Oh you have to do the live version. You are missing the actual passion on their faces especially Steve’s. I just love Steve Perry he is my favorite song bird hands down. I have been a fan for 44 years and will continue til my last breath ♥️
You should have watched the original video of them in concert. They are great live.
it's about a wife, "There's a band of gold that shines" referring to a wedding band(ring).
He has a stadium voice!!! It’s incredible… right there with Freddy Mercury and George Michael, he can sing anything
Missing You is a must hear by Steve Perry
I absolutely love that song. Next to Open Arms and When a Man loves a Woman, Missing You is that song that makes me miss every loved one that has fallen asleep in death, but I can't stop listening to it!!
You have great taste!
Johnathan Cain the piano player, Steve sings
I think it is about his wife, thus the band of gold reference. Definite great wedding song.
John, the song is about the deep love a man has for his wife, and Steve has loved women in his life but he has never married. Maybe it was about a woman in his life, but Steve has said he never married because he saw all the band members of Journey go through divorce, some repeatedly. He saw what they went through emotionally and financially and didn't want to go through that experience. This song is so beautiful and he sings it with such emotion, wish the whole world would get to experience that kind of love.
I thought he was married. My mistake. I know he had a longtime girlfriend (Sherrie).
I believe Jonathan Cain(keyboardist) wrote the lyrics for this song, and he was married at the time.
@@estills4768 Your right, I've heard the same thing in interviews from both Steve and Jonathan, although Jonathan had the melody and the theme behind the lyrics, Steve did collaborate on the song with him to complete the song. What chemistry those two had a long with Neal because most all of Journey's play list from ' 77 to the completion of Trial by Fire were mostly all written by Steve, Jonathan,and Neal. What a gift to the word!
@@estills4768 Cain wrote the song for his then-wife, Tane McClure. She is actor Doug McLure's daughter.
Steve Perry would win hands down any and every singing competition he enters!
Any Winehouse in a vid, was walking down a street with a guy, a best friend and they were shootin' the crap and during the conversation he said, hey that's like the time my Mom and I were living with her boyfriend (name} and he said ya know, I really love your Mother and I want to marry her, I'm gonna write a song for her. Don't tell her, I want it to be a surprise and we talked for a long time and he spent the afternoon writing it. It was this song. He was the lead guitarist in Journey. Forgot the story till now.
listen to perry sing "we're still here" - hard to believe it's a SEVENTY year old man singing that song!
STEVE PERRY the best Malé voice ever no doubt about MR STEVE PERRY this group never be the same with out him
Hey now!, we all know SP is the voice. But Neal hit it out of the park with his solo also. He always does. No two pieces ever sounds the same other than kicks ass. Am I wrong?
Got to do the live version, so much more powerful 👍👍
There isn’t one. Steve Perry left the band after this album was recorded.
3:24 Steve Perry doesn’t play the keys and sing this song. That’s Jonathan Cain on piano.
You should have done the live "official video" to this song..
Steve Perry is one of the top 3 singers with bon Jovi and Bobby Hatfield
JOURNAY cause I got the song for when your best cousin touch you WIFA on vacation for 2TWO wakes. W e k s thank god the song for the😊
I can't think of a better song to play for when you're best. Cousin runs away with your wife We all wrote without you by journey. If you know any bodies got a dirty dog bass cup They might want to I might want to listen to that song by journey
😮 I stayed here. Hey, better watch this best coz. And I'm gonna take thit's a psychotic lot. Cause hez w I f a y o y w o w o w she's already who am I
It's just a matter of time before you get 100,000 it just takes spreading the word.
I'll be alright. I'll be alright without you. Is the song. It's journey journey. Does I be all right
Steve Perry was known as The voice. There was another singer known as The voice his name was Frank Sinatra! Nuff Said!
Sinatra was overrated-- Mr. I did it my way baloney!!!!
@@algallego I remember my mom saying the same thing! She thought Dean Martin blew him away! Lol
Don't forget Paul Rodgers holds that title as well.
Journey puts into lyrics and music what a man's pride, fear, and foolishness won't let him say to the love of his life.
The history behind the Album this song debut form is amazing. "Trial By Fire" 1997 was the first album written after Journey reunited from a 10 year separation in 1987. There was supposed to be a tour but Steve Perry's health made this tour fall apart and Steve has been separate from the band ever since.

glad you found this song.
Well said.
Grammy, not Emmy.
You should watch the official video for this song. It shows them playing the song with an orchestra and Steve Perry signing it. Very cool. Much better experience (in my opinion) than the video with just the lyrics.
And that hair down to his butt! ❤
Need the video
Better to watch the video....
Ma'am...respectfully....lyrics say "there's a band of gold that shines".
I don’t think “cute” describes this song.. it’s spectacular
Watch Missing you Steve perry from love is medicine!!
Their only Grammy nomination….shame.
Not a deep cut. This was there biggest single off the 1996 Trial By Fire album. Went #1 on the adult contemporary charts and #12 on Billboard hot 100. Probably could have done better but they did not tour to support this album due to Steve Perry's hip injury and subsequent breakup with the band.
P.S. they ended up releasing 4 singles from this album, the first one was "Message Of Love", Then "When You Love A Woman:, "Can't Tame The Lion", and "If He Should Break Your Heart". You should check them out.
And it was nominated for a Grammy
Journey infinity album and evolution are the best with Steve perry..
My top 5 are: Robert Plant; Steve Perry; Bono; Freddie Mercury; Axl Rose. Let yall debate in which order, or if someone else belongs.
She’s still here
My top voices of all time George Michael and Steue Perry
i thought beaver was your #1
This is almost the perfect song but I keep thinking the lyric should not have been "my searchin ain't over"
It should have been " My searchin's all over"
Sorry, he doesn't play the keys on this. That's Jonathan Cain.
😁👍
Hi, coming from a Journey fan you should listen to the album Trail By Fire 🔥
Watch the beautiful live video.
No video?
After much debate (within myself) I personally think Steve Perry is the GREATEST singer EVER... Freddie Mercury is second best.... I do love Freddie... but Perry.... No match...
W I f a yoh ma ha ma wow , w o w e r e y e pay
I'd definitely bumped up prescription and hit the notifications. Well , i'm not looking how I look
She would be so sonos on a cold winter's night. Think about it , you wouldn't even have turned a lot on to say this fun , baby
You are not showing the video, so disappointing, because his face showed every emotion, love, loss. Steve, Neal and Jonathan were an unbearable as a team
He was in agonizing pain during the shooting of that video, the dancing sequences were spliced in out takes from his Strange Medicine videos.
He couldn't use any painkillers for his hip and still perform, so they just packed him in ice between takes.
you should watch the video,so much better!!!!
wtf, is that guy speaking english?
Your voice sounds is very low
If you liked this, you will really like Bryan Adams..Have you ever really loved a woman?
If that was your wife, she's was great, not so much for you
