There is no other voice on the planet like Steve Perry’s! The range, the tone, the power, & delivery are pure magic!
OMG I get goosebumps every time I hear this man’s voice I don’t know what’s wrong with me. I was just listening to him this morning, but this one’s a great tune, one of my faves.
Amen !
Sherry640, couldn’t of said that any better!! You nailed it!!
@sylvialopez5928 does the same thing to me, every single time!! 😍
How can you not get chills? Its the voice of an angel! Effortlessly, flawless and full of such passion and emotion! Sorry, people who say Freddie is the best are smoking something! Steve is effortless. Freddie is great but you can hear it’s forced.
Billboard Hot 100 did a Fan Vote and " Steve Perry " was Voted the Best Singer in Rock History he got 67% of the Votes.
Steve Perry has an amazing voice.
His power, range and ability to so effortlessly enunciate, makes him stand out.
Journey isn't Journey without hearing the amazing vocals of Steve Perry! He's the secret sauce!! ❤❤❤❤
Steve Perry was definitely in a league of his own no one could touch his vocal ability so pitch perfect
Your reaction is the same we all have now. Pure enjoyment. But I have to admit that growing up in the 70's and 80's we had the luxury of taking Journey for granted. There were so many good groups and such diversity. And nothing beats the live performances because these groups earned their way performing in little clubs and bars. They relied on word of mouth and they had to deliver every performance. No group now can duplicate that.
Sooo true!!!
Absolutely. I honestly couldn't tell you how many concerts I saw in my late teens.
Concerts back then were affordable for all! Festival seating was cheap and fun!! Miss those days so much! We were truly blessed with all the AMAZING music from our time!!! 💜🥰💜🥰💜
We were so blessed with great music probably the best in the 70’s-80’s and we did not even realize it.
Steve Perry's voice is a true gift.
Yeah, that little man can SING. Baroque opera lost an incredible Giulio Cesare when he went into rock. Journey is basically Enrico Caruso singing Billie Holiday covers while the Rolling Stones play Brahms. Critics had no idea what to do with them.
Great comment, and very true!
Hardly a little man!!!!
My roommate sat me down, put headphones on me, and played this song. My first time hearing Journey and turned me into a huge fan in an instant.
Steve Perry's voice projects so well. It's so powerful. I love Journey.
This probably happened to many other Californians, but I remember the time I was crossing the Golden Gate Bridge driving into San Francisco when this song came on the car radio. Every time I hear "Lights," I remember how great it felt to be 18 and driving around with my girlfriends. The sun wasn't shining on the bay, though. It was really foggy.
The Voice! Amazing, no other like him.
I love and so appreciate this man’s voice.
Steve Perry and Journey are one of my all-time favorite band. Steve's voice is undisputedly one of the best angelic vocals in music history. I really Love this Band. Great reactions!!!
Steve Perry is Journey all of the time.
Steve is the best Journey's voice.
Journey had many great tunes with Steve being among the very best lead vocalist to ever perform live or recorded!
He is magical. He sucks me in. ✌️☮️✌️☮️ OH...MY...GOD! 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️ 🎸🎸🎸
After all these years Journey still one of my favorate bands. I will never get bored of watching this concert.
That’s the stuff ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
I was just thinking how great it would have been if Steve could have sung with the "Three Tenors" back in the day!
Then someone commented that opera lost a" Curuso" when Steve went into rock music! So glad the younger generations are discovering real music from the 60's ,70's and the 80's👏
I remember this tour and it was just indescribable to be there to see it. Absolutely memorable.
I was on stage, left side next to the speaker column. Joe Lewis arena
in Detroit Michigan
This tour was my first Journey show, and I was hooked.
Good song! Incredible, he's been blessed!
Never, ever a better singer, anywhere. I love your reactions to Journey and Steve Perry
Steve Perry's voice is so distinctive and it's so easy to get lost in their songs. Captivating 🎉 he went solo mid 80's and you need to listen to one of those.
@stevenrayperrymusic I live in southeastern Iowa. I graduated in 84' and your music was a part of my teenage years ♥
One of the greatest voices ever. When I was in 6th grade, a classmate used to get permission to bring his boom box during recess. We used to listen to Journey while playing kickball. I love them to this day (and, after writing this, I feel SUPER old) 😂
I'm 65! First song I heard from Journey was "Loving, Touching, Squeezing" on an 8 track player!
I seen them on this tour in '81 in Las Vegas. To hear his voice live is something I'll never forget!
Some songs I will stay in the car to hear all the way through. I can’t seem to turn this one off in the middle.
Thanks for doing this live performance! Steve Perry is amazing one of a kind!🔥🔥🔥 Thank you!
Growing up in the 70's and 80's was THE BEST! As an older woman that was there, all I can say is that I wish today's generation could really appreciate our music like you do. I taught my babies to love this music. Journey, Fleetwood Mac and the Eagles were totally my youth!!!
You need to watch again and let it bridge into Stay Awhile. Phenomenal. I'm always shocked that people watch this video from this particular concert and cut it off without watching as it blends into Stay Awhile, which is an incredible vocal performance!
💯❤️🔥
You should have let the tape run into Stay Awhile, which is usually played back-to-back with Lights. As far as rock singers go, Steve Perry is the GOAT. One critic described him as a counter tenor with the warmth of a baritone. He makes it sound so easy, but what he's doing vocally is really difficult to achieve and technically flawless.
YES!!! This.❤ 🔥 🔥
Absolutely ! Stay Awhile is a fave of mine that doesn’t get mentioned much
Great point Marshal, those 2 songs have always intertwine, if you never been to a concert or never saw Houston, Frontiers (DVD), it’s such a great duo. Like Feeling that way & Anytime!!!!! One just goes hand and hand with the other☺️
@kimee910 you should listen to the Osaka concert. Lights and Stay Awhile is great in this one and actually the whole concert is AWESOME!❤️🔥🔥🔥
Journey with Steve Perry is Fire!
Steve Perry could sing the phone book . He is and was a incredible singer. I Love this man and I have since I was 17 in high school 🥰💜💋🦋
@stevenrayperrymusic I am from Alabama 🥰😘💋💜🦋
Fun fact: "Lights" has been used as a lighting cue for Oakland A's fireworks events for decades: they kill the stadium lights and set off the first firework on the repeat of "when the lights go down...."
They were Big really Big ! Oh memories seen Journey many times
He has one of the rarest voices, a counter tenor. He always sounded even better live especially at this 1981 Escape tour. Try reacting to Still they ride, When you love a woman, Faithfully and open arms. Best male rock voice ever!
A counter tenor is rare, but Steve has a tenor altino, which as a rare form of countertenor is even less common.
When you love a woman is amazing!
this was my first concert in high school. It was a few days in front or back of that show. On the floor with a girl on my shoulders for a while. Welcome to REAL music. REAL musicians with NO AUTOTUNE computer crap. MOTHER FATHER shows Steve's HIGH range at the end. Any Way You Want It. The guitarist played with Santana when he was 15-16.
"Infinity" was one of those "no skip" albums. For most it was the first time they'd heard of Journey. Though Top 40 radio was slow to embrace them Journey was an instant smash on FM album rock stations. Since you said you haven't done it you really should check out ""Feeling That Way/Anytime" (both songs together) from the same LP.
That and "Departure" may be my fave
"Feeling That Way/Anytime is/are my favorite Journey song/s. Always together.
As Jon Jovi said, he’s The Voice ❤❤❤❤❤❤
every single song on the infinity album is terrific. you should listen to the whole album. soooooooo gooooood!
Yep! This song, Hell, almost all of Journey's considerable catalog of music is "pull-the-car-over-to-the-side-of-the-road" epic, and always worth as many replays as possible.
@stevenrayperrymusic I should be thanking YOU! I'm streaming from a small town in Northern Virginia, and I grew up listening to a lot of incredible music, from Big Bands with my parents, Classic Rock with my siblings, and everything in between.
Sal, isn’t it so amazingly cool when Steve has his mouth in vibrato!!! His mouth is moving and the sound stays steady, strong, and true!!! NO ONE will ever sing like him. He is truly 1 in zillion. Truly truly beautiful!!!!!
I Love to see the younger generation appreciating these classic rock groups. Fabulous! The Best ! And Journey, Steve Perry particularly, is the Best of the Best. My kids were raised on it and now my grandkids. Awesome and never gets old !
My favorite song by Journey!
Studio version is amazing too.
You didn't want to read any more and just read enough to hear it was *intended* to be about LA, but it was changed to be about San Francisco. SF is known as 'The City'. It is part of the huge area in NorCal called the 'Bay Area'. Lyrics say '...city by the Bay' instead of 'LA'. Steve didn't like it, so decided to make it about SF instead.
Like you, Lights is one of my favorite Journey songs. I'm from the Bay Area and when I was living far from home this song made me so homesick.
Journey has many hits, a classic band with one of the best voices ever with Steve Perry. I highly recommend you continue to check out Journey tunes!
That was such an AMAZING show!
This was one of the best concerts I ever went to. They really are that good!
Fell in love with Journey in high school back in the 70's. Especially the Steve Perry vocals and Neal Schon guitar. Every song...every album. Just gotta sing along! Hadn't heard anything like them before or since. Great reaction! Keep 'em coming!
Was in Frisco last weekend...on a night cruise back from Alcatraz i played this song on my phone....happy happy moment
I love salvo's dumbfounded look about half way through.
I love your reactions of Journey. I saw your very first reaction, and everyone since. At first you wouldn't react to the live versions, but as many of your listeners told you their live versions were exceptional, now you see why for yourself! Still you have only scratched the surface with Steve Perry and Journey. So many hits and hidden treasures of songs that you've yet to discover, like I'll be Alright Without You, When You Love a Woman, Send Her My Love, Still She Cries. BTW Neal (Schon pronounciation sounds like Shawn).
The whole escape tour was absolutely amazing. Be sure to watch Live in Osaka, the version there was also great. In this line-up the band was absolutely perfect and Steve, what can I say, simply the best
Keep going! No bad songs in this show. Or ever. ❤
The whole infinity album is incredible. Anything from the Infinity, Evolution or Departure albums will always be a good choice to react to.
💯❤️🔥
Saw them in concert five times! Yep✌️
@stevenrayperrymusicNot Steve Perry!
A true love song to a great American city.
Steve's voice is Amazing.✌️
❤ journey/steve perry. Lovin' , Touchin' , Squeezen'. AWESOME!!! Please do a reaction to it. 🥰
First song I ever heard from Journey and it was on an 8 track player! I was a fan instantly!
My favorite from Infinity is Winds of March. I LOVE that song. There is a video from Soundstage in 1978 that is a live performance of Winds of March that you should check out. The whole Infinity album is great.
I must admit,
I gravitate to your Journey reactions-Who wouldn’t ?
In San Francisco, we changed LA to Bay and made it about us😂 great song ❤ Journey
Steve ist das absolut das größte Geschenk,was wir je bekommen haben ❤
Hard to believe Journey and Creedence Clearwater Revival came from the same city! One of my younger brothers was a drummer, and toured with Looking Glass (Brandy) for a year or so, and went with the singer, Elliot Lurie, to a party and met Steve. Some girls brought a Journey album, and Steve sang harmony with himself on a couple of songs. Man, I would'a loved to have been there!
If the WIKI says it's about LA it is wrong. Saw them on there first tour with Steve Perry singing and he told the story that it was about San Francisco and the lights over the San Francisco Bay. Like many others, heard it driving across the Golden Gate Bridge, very cool timing!
One thing that all great singers have in common: they know the notes they have to hit *before* they hit them. Always thinking about where the next note is.
Oh, I remember this concert. One of the best times of my life! I couldn't believe how fantastic they were live.
I ran the dances in high school. Every year we'd do a boat dance cruising on the San Francisco Bay. I'd play Lights as the last song as we were heading toward the dock. It was perfect to play a song about San Francisco by an SF band.
Stone in love, live and it may be this concert, is a great rocker.
Live in Osaka (1980) is a really great concert to react to. Any Song will do, but Walks Like a Lady, Wheel in the Sky, Im Crying, are some outstandingly ones.😮🔥🔥🔥❤️
I love Wheel in the Sky from that concert! Will have to check out the other songs from same concert! Thanks!
@donnamoskowitz4978 Watch the whole Osaka concert, it's great!! Lights merges into Stay Awhile and is really good, probably even better than the Houston 81 concert.🔥🔥🔥
@@rhondamadrid4071 Thank you Rhonda I will!
Loved this band during this era.
Dude you GOTTA react to STONE IN LOVE! The HARDEST Rockin Journey Song EVER!!
Osaka concert is a must-see if you do anymore reactions to Infinty or Departure!❤️🔥🔥🔥
Caught this tour with Billy Squire and Toronto opening.
My favorite male vocalist of that era. I have always loved Journey. I've seen them in concert twice, but unfortunately never with Steve. I was too young when he was with them. I've seen them with their current vocalist of the last 16 years, Arnel Pineda. He is excellent as well!
Was lucky to catch one of 6 sellout concerts in MPLS in 1981. Tickets went fast. They just kept adding concerts.
This is from the concert that was actually shown on MTV!! Yeah they played music a long time ago…I actually got to see them on this tour. Fun fact, they play this at SF baseball games.. there is clips of Steve at the game & leading the crowd!!
Ya I was surprised to hear it was about LA. I only ever remember people calling the City by the Bay SF growing up there…
The live, in Osaka, performance of Lights/Stay Awhile is one of my faves. Would enjoy watching your reaction, but just hope you check it out...even just for yourself.
💯❤️🔥🔥
"Lights" is one of my favorite Journey songs, too! Next I would suggest you check out "Lovin', Touchin', Squeezin'".
Awwww........ Wished they played the rest of the song, the next song was 'Stay Awhile'. These are songs that are on 2 completely different albums!! 'Lights' is on the Infinity album (1978) and 'Stay Awhile' is on the 'Departure' album (1980). And both songs just fit together, as if it were just one song!
'Lights' was my very first Journey song, I when I was 9 years old!! It was his voice that caught my attention! Perry is and will always be my all time favorite singer!! He's my guy, I just love him!
"SUZANNE" by Journey will impress you. It's on the 'Raised On Radio"
I love Journey! Anyone who hasn’t seen this before, please watch the video without the lines through it so you get the full effect of the band. ☮️❤️😎
I saw this concert in Columbus, Ohio at the old Vets Memorial Auditorium in 1978. It wasn’t a huge place, but that made it all the better. We were in the fifth or sixth row and to see this incredible band perform from that close of a distance was just unbelievable. Steve and all of the members gave it everything they had. To this day, it was the best concert I ever saw, and I don’t think anything could ever beat it.
Always liked this song, but seeing them do it live was amazing. Brendan Byrne Arena May '82 during the Escape tour.
Patty-You should check out a solo he recorded for soundtrack for Quest for Camelot. Its called I Stand Alone. Hes a little older but still Rocks it.
First time hearing journey 1978 they were opening act for foreigner
If you like the live version, you'll love the studio version! My favourite song by Journey of all time.
Please please check out Wheel in the Sky and Walks Like a Lady live in Osaka he plays around with that beautiful voice of his 😊
Yes, THE 1980 Osaka concert!
My favorite Salvo line………..”oh, ok!”
My favorite song that Steve Perry and Journey play.
I know he originally wrote it about LA, but it fits San Francisco (where Journey is from) so much better. I'm a native Northern Californian and have lived in San Francisco and the Bay Area. I'm in Florida now and hearing that makes me a bit homesick.
Saw them on this tour…fantastic……check out their Midnight Special concerts from then from around 1977 when Perry was the new guy….unbelievable
Love Journey🎸🎼👏🏻♥️Thanks!! ✌️🌷
Que voz ❤❤❤❤
mother father from this same concert. Truthfully the whole concert is FIRE
In your pre-read of the song he originally wrote it about LA but didn’t like how it sounded. Then awhile later when he joined Journey and moved to San Francisco where they were based changing the line to “and the sun shines on the bay” made more sense and sounded better so that became the song
Ah ha! When Salvo read that the song was about LA, I was like no way. I'm from LA and I had always assumed Perry was singing about San Francisco cuz that's the city "by the bay" and the lights never go down in the city of Angels.
@@bearballin I always thought it was San Francisco too.
My favorite Journey song as well. Lots of memories when I hear this song. It makes me miss the old days of growing up in Southern California!✌🏻
You might like "Still They Ride" from the Escape album. One of my favorites of theirs.
That IS my favorite Journey song
Neil & Steve used to practice together. OH & BTW It was Steve Perry who made all the late 70's all the 80's & first part of the bands most famous. Steve Has some new ones out on his own. Couple of albums.
