Steve Perry is one of the greatest rock singers of all time. No autotune and hits the notes perfectly - with POWER! Anything from this live show is worthy of a reaction.
Amen to that!!!
AMEN!!!!!!
So glad I grew up in this era!! We had actual real talent!!!
ME TOO....I was 16 years old when this came out,in 1981..I am 59 now,and I am content to listen to 80's music,the rest of my life....NOTHING COMPARES................
Oh me too!!
Steve Perry was called "The Voice"
Still is❤
I would only put Ronnie James Dio up there with him. We had EPIC level singers and musicians back in the day.
He is making a comeback too!!!!🔥
@@rachelk8937 For some reason, I thought he couldn't sing anymore.
@@jwb52z9 I might have to check, but I was watching a bunch of reactions to Journey recently and several people commented that he was going to be recording again. I didn’t check , but I hope so!
Exactly right Cliff. This is 5 dudes, no backing tracks, no post. Just pure talent 🤘
Steve Perry, hands down, best male vocalist of all time!!!
Definitely top 3 along with Dimash and Freddie Mercury. The order changes depending on the day. 😂
@@randywissler9923 Lets not forget Elvis Presley can make the old telephone book sound incredible .
Steve Perry is the greatest vocalist of all time IMHO. No one will ever match his vocal abilities. No autotune, no ear pieces just Raw untrained God given talent. Watch Mother Father from same show. It will blow your mind!! Also watch Who’s crying now from same show. Listen to Lovin Touchin Squeezin, Lights, wheel in the sky. Steve Perryhas has several solo albums also, listen to Oh Sherrie and Goolish heart, Strung out. I could go on and on. The Journey rabbit hole is deep but oh so worth it!
Steve and Freddie !
Yesss! I mentioned that, too, definitely watch ‘Mother Father’… It is an absolute masterpiece!!! Make sure you watch the live version from the concert in Houston in 1981… Same concert you watched with don’t stop believin’’.
Definitely watch them on ‘The Midnight Special’ too… it was a show that came on late at night, and always had the best & upcoming bands. Watch them do “Lovin’, Touchin’, Squeezin’“ when Steve has the red and white striped top on. It’s a great performance, and then they immediately go into the song, “City of the Angels“. Fantastic! search Wolfman Jack… He was the coolest disc jockey. -he hosted the midnight special on TV. The story of the band is amazing. The guitarist with the rad hair, Neal Schon and another guy named Gregg Rolie were in a band in the early 70s called Santana. Look up the song ‘black Magic woman’ by Santana. Greg is the one who sang this song. The band broke up but Greg and Neal started Journey after that. There is a lot of history with this band. The original drummer was called Aynsly Dunbar, and then came Steve Smith. He was there for all the high points in the late 70s and early 80s. The very first lead singer was called Robert Fleishman, but as soon as they found Steve, he was instantly the new lead singer.
Right now they are touring, yes… 2024 they are touring and the drummer is amazing. He played with Ozzy Osbourne and lots of other bands. … His name is Deen Castronovo. I graduated in 1984 and Journey was my ♥️band and still is 40 years later. Iconic!
And no auto tune. No one can sing live like this these days
Ofc said this before your post-video analysis
Dude, Steve was moving all over the stage, working the crowd and doing his thing and his voice NEVER changed. I was in high school in the 70's still like long hair, tight jeans. I thought and still think Steve is very handsome. TALENT is what our music had no fake crap, it was REAL.
I love Steve Perry and Journey. They were a HUGE part of the late 70's & 80's. I'm so happy I grew up with the 60's through the 90's. It was the most talented bands and hands down the best music. The 80's was epic.❤
His voice is amazing
Iconic song! If this doesn't make you smile, you're soul is dead
"THE VOICE" Live ! Steve Perry ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
Between ‘78 and ‘86 they were THE band! Hit after hit. No one was doing it better than Perry. He’s still in the top 5. I graduated HS in ‘86 so Journey was a huge part of my teens! Saw them 3x and the live vocals were just like this video! Shout out to Neil Schon who’s a pretty underrated guitarist.
We need more true artists like this today. So happy I grew up in the 80s with this awesome music!
Journey is my all time favorite band and Steve’s the best singer of all time. I was 20 in 1981 and have been a fan ever since. On tour was all live performances. No auto tune. No mixes. Just pure talent
This song has been my ringtone for 15 years. 5 different phones, but this song is always the first thing I download.
It’s the slight imperfections and energy that makes live rock music amazing. Too many effects drains that energy.
And they sound this polished Live!
Booy, have you been missing out! Greatest band ever. The Voice and the band, phenomenal!
I love Steve Perry and all songs when he was in Journey. He has a beautiful voice. Steve belongs to a unforgetable part of my life.
And this is LIVE. Steve Perry could do anything he wanted to with that amazing voice. His voice and Neal Schon's guitar are the most potent one-two punch in rock history. They played off each other so amazingly well, and their songwriting was just incredible. There's just not music like this anymore.
Check out "Faithfully", "When You Love a Woman", "Stone In Love", "Who's Crying Now", "Lovin', Touchin', Squeezin'", and Steve Perry's solo "I Stand Alone", "Oh Sherry", and "Foolish Heart".
Steve Perry wasn't the original lead singer; that was Gregg Rolle. Then Steve came on board and he and Gregg co-sang. Then Gregg left (he was also their keyboardist), and was replaced by Jonathan Cain, and Steve Perry was the only lead singer until their final studio album in 1996, "Trial By Fire". Steve had some health issues and a guy named Steve Augeri took over vocals. After Augeri was Jeff Scott Soto, and now Arnel Pineda. And all of the singers after Perry sang his hits.
Steve Perry is awesome! Known as "The Voice!" Back then it was just pure talent! No autotune, no backing track, just 5 guys on stage absolutely killing it! In my opinion, they actually sound better live than studio. You can't say that about a lot of artists, especially today.
Journey is hands down my favorite band of all time. I love Steve Perry. I highly recomend Oh Sherrie. Cause the video depicts why he walked away at the height of his career. I would love to hear your thoughts.
The reason is, back then, their was no autotune, no digital editing....You had to be Amazing back then.
Excellent song another one to check out would be Oh Sherrie by Steve Perry, it was one of his solo tracks after he left Journey
My favorite group with Steve Perry my favorite male vocalist please please check out Journey Mother Father live in Houston the vocal acrobatics are incredible ❤❤❤❤
Live! I’m so glad I graduated in 86, When One had to have real talent to make it in the music industry!
Perry's nick name is the voice. 🙂. Pick anything from this concert. It's all top notch. Two of my favorites are l who's crying now? And Mother, Father ..but cannot go wrong with any pick. 🙂
The bands in the 60's, 70's and 80's had the vocal talent. Steve Perry is amazing. His voice is authentic and controlled. Most of today's singers have average to poor vocal talent and rely on enhanced media and computerized music to make up for the vocals as filler.
In my opinion Journey sounds better live than recorded...got to check out some more of their live performances. Steve Perry is known for being "the Voice" for a reason. Iconic..
One of the few who sounds EXACTLY the same Live as he does in Studio.
And EVERY time you break off into 'new to you music' , I'll be here for it!
I just Love you to bits! In a mom/grandma way. I'm 62. 😊
Me as well!! 62 also!!! CLIFF... If you want an unbelievable listen, react to Journey's song "Mother/Father" from the same iconic '81 Houston Escape tour. It's noted that Steve found their song "Mother/Father" to be a tough song to get through, as it has immensely challenging vocals. Apparently, he mentioned that it was a hard one to quickly recover from when continuing on while in concert. Give it a good listen to, and you'll realize why. It's a classic Steve Perry performance none the less... absolute perfection. I just love that I lived through the greatest time period for classic rock bands. My first memory was from watching my older brother put a Boston 8-track tape in his red camaro and listening while "More Than a Feeling" came blaring out. Wow! Great memories of times gone by... ❤ to you!!
Well…it’s been played at pretty much every sporting event since it came out. I’m from the Bay Area and Steve Perry is a huge San Francisco Giants fan so he would come to the games and sing this during the 7th inning stretch. We had season tickets so we saw him perform this several times. His seats were in the stands with the rest of us so they would just bring him the mic to sing. It was amazing!
What is so awesome when watching our 70’s bands and singers performing live is that it’s all them. No autotune, no lip syncing, just pure perfect music from singer to each instrument.
You’re totally right cliff!! Definitely can’t recreate this music!!
Steve has a wonderful voice!
LIVE! Thats all I have to say!
Steve Perry is known as "The Voice" and to prove that PLEASE react to
Wheel in the Sky" (Live from Osaka 1980). The intro by Steve and the interaction he has with the fans is beyond amazing! Thanks for not making fun of how we dressed back then like so many other channels do! Appreciate you! 🤠
Asked Freddy Mercury how it feels to have the greatest voice? He said, I don’t know ask Steve Perry! No auto tune! He even sounds better live. He went solo!!! More: open arms, faithfully!!!! Thanks Cliff. ❤✌️🫶🏻
@@amyaeschbach3581 I love Steve's solo work!
One of the greatest singers ever! Of course vocal performance in the 80s was greatly improved by keeping their sexy bits firmly pressed against the seam of their pants 😂 LOVE JOURNEY 🤘❤
Journey - Mother, father from this same show is AMAZING! And you will apreciate the lyrics.
Greg Rollie was the ORIGINAL lead singer / keyboard player of JOURNEY. Steve Perry joined the band on their third or fourth album which is when they REALLY took off and became the juggernaut you just saw. There was one album with BOTH on it and they sometimes shared vocals on the same songs. I LOVED that.
Kind of feel bad for Rollie - once the world heard Perry's voice the writing was kind of on the wall and he kind of just faded away.
What's REALLY funny is there was a time when it was really NOT COOL to be into Journey. That time has clearly passed and everyone pretty much universally realizes those were great days and great songs, the likes of which will NEVER be seen again.
We didn't realize how good we had it. Didn't realize it could ever go away.
It did.
Check out "Separate Ways"(music video for that one) and "Who's Crying Now". If you liked this one ...
The great thing about expanding your music knowledge, is that it can give you more ideas to work with when you're doing your stuff for the industry.
Thank you. All those 13 year old feelings are still there every time I hear this.
Journey is so very awesome. Steve Perry's voice is so beautiful! This is pure raw talent. No auto tune! Love your reaction!
Watch Steve as he walks, struts across the stage, he moves to the beat of the music 🎶. ❤
Real musicians, talent, instruments, and The Voice ❤😊.
So happy you are checking out my favorite 80’s male vocalist❤❤❤❤
Great reaction! You should keep reacting to that wonderful Journey live tour in Houston in 1981. You'll keep being surprised. Steve Perry is the best! Greetings from Tandil, Argentina! 🇦🇷🤗
The Voice - Steve Perry - my fave group of my youth and yes it never goes out of style- iconic!!! 🦠💚🦠💚 Love you Cliff Beats from Lisa a lyme and autoimmune warrior
We are not all in the same boat, but we are all in the same storm! So thankful you did not give up on YT and YT didn't give up on you! Hope everything has been resolved. Best reaction to this song I've ever seen! 🤠
This man was sheer perfection to 14/ 15 year old me. He still is to 56 year old me. I’m going to come up with some recommendations for you. I feel like you are expanding your brain and your life by expanding your musical taste. ❤ thanks for reacting to this, I was a kid again for a bit 😢
Steve Perry.....THE VOICE.....THE GOAT......in his own league!!!!
And to think that this is live! Its just as good or better than the studio version 😁😊
Best music! Thanks! I have heard that Steve Perry is going to get back on stage. He is 75 now.
Steve Perry is fantastic as a singer and a man.. Really good n honest guy...." THE VOICE."
Legend perry forever The Golden voice The Big one oregenality absolutely amazing 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
There’s a great documentary about how journey found their replacement lead singer called -
Don't Stop Believin': Everyman's Journey
Still requesting Patty Loveless “You’ll Never Leave Harlan Alive “, hoping you’ll expand your musical journey a little wider. It’s bluegrass which is a form country music. The best version is a live version that can be found on the UA-cam channel stormsontheocean. I honestly believe you’ll like the song if you give it a chance. Thanks! Love your channel 👍👍👍👍👍👍
You can watch this entire Journey Escape tour concert, live in Houston. Can't think of another live concert video that I enjoy more. Now this is music and there is no one who can take the place of Steve Perry! Thanks for the reaction.
Steve Perry just put out a new album at 74 years old! He has always been known as “The Voice.” Journey has been one of my favorite bands four times in my life. his voice is just as great now as it was then what’s awesome is he’s singing live with no autotune no bullshit and it sounds just like the record!
Journey in the 70’s was incredible. Early80’s was great. Steve Perry is a phenomenal vocalist. Neil Schon was great on the guitar. Greg Rolie was the first lead singer of Journey.
Not a lot of bands sound this good live! ❤
Greatest rock band in the world during their prime.
This song, Steve Perry’s voice, the performance, is just perfection!! 🔥🔥. He sounds exactly the same as on the album and it is amazing how effortless it looks ❤️
Mother, Father from the same concert. Steve has said it was the hardest, physically, to sing...worth a watch!
The one, The only "VOICE" Steve Perry. Loved growing up in the world of actual talent. No auto tune, no in ear and he usually sounded better live.✌❤️🤘
Thanks Cliff love when you go back in time and react to the music I listened to as a kid... ❤
You must experience "Mother, Father" from the same Live 1981 Escape Tour. Steve Perry and the entire band are absolute perfection! That is quite possibly the best live performance of any song you will ever see. It is dynamite! Steve Perry is incomparable!
Steve Perry was nicknamed "The Voice" by other singers
What a voice!! On the radio non stop in my youth. You had no doubt who was the singer. Please go down the rabbit hole. So many hits
Mother Father from Live in Houston 1981 should be your next reaction. A masterpiece.
It's LIVE man !! Friggin' LIVE.
Growing up with the music of Journey, was pure Magic! Thank you for your reaction, nice to know you appreciate this music! Thanks for sharing! Have a Blessed weekend!
Thank you for getting back to giving the world uplifting music reactions!
This is from an era of absolute true talent; no techno , no autotune, no fake tracks. Anything after the '80s is just a person in front of a mic that relies on computers and electronic equipment to even make them sound even tolerable----talentless hacks.
I was there The Summit!!! This was my first concert. I'll be 56 next month and I miss those days.
Great reaction, my friend. This is a song from my high school days, but I get to experience it again for the first time through your eyes and ears. So cool to see your enjoyment of this classic.
I was at that concert...it was incredible
They put on an amazing show
The Voice Steve Perry. Loving Touching Squeezing is a great song and a must from this concert. Great reaction as usual my friend and Peace out 🙏 ✌️ ☮️ Another Standing ovation...we're getting to Cliff ya'all 😂
Saw Journey in concert in 1983. Steve Perry’s voice was and still is incredible!! Also, Brian Adams opened for them. Incredible show!! I miss the 80’s, the music the concerts. Such a great time.
Who's Crying Now and Open Arms and Seperate Ways are all classics of theirs as well
I saw journey in concert, and their songs sounded just like the albums...awesome ❤ Great reaction ❤
So many memories come flowing back with this one,. Thanks for your reaction. And thank you for reaching out several times when I was at my low point Things do get better.
Shout out Cliff 🤘. My dad & Mom listened to journey. Steve Perry with journey was fantastic. Arnel Pineda can sing as well 🎤👍 thanks Cliff enjoyed 👏👏🫡
Yes, people had actually TALENT back then. Please watch Mother, Father and Who's Cryin Now from this same concert. Other musicians called Steve Perry "The Voice " and for good reason.
I am 14 when this somg came out. I grew up with 70, 80, 90.
Thank you!
So many great Journey songs but my personal favorites are "Open Arms" and "Faithfully" ❤
FYI, Perry had the flu during this show in Houston and still was perfection.
This song always gets me wanting to bop along and be productive 😂💜 steves voice is so fantastical. Always have loved it. Ren also has that amazing breath control 💜
Journey is one of THE greatest bands ever!
Technology is replacing talent.
If you want a music education, us boomers will definitely help you out. We had the best music ever. From the late 50's through the 80's, all analog, all real voices, and kick ass musicians who really knew their stuff. Music from the 60's and 70's are still used in commercials and movie soundtracks. We love sharing our music, answering questions, and turning you on to the very wide selection of absolutely great music. There is another hip hop artist, Black Pegasus, that has taken on this journey, and it is a joy to watch him expand his horizons, and he is loving every minute of it! I hope you can have the same experience.😊
His voice is INSANE 😳
I am glad you are spreading your wings 💖
They didn't have, in your ear, voice monitors. They had wedge monitors on the stage pointed at the band. Steve Perry has a golden voice!!
Got to see them on this tour and his voice was unbelievable!! Amazing band live
This is SO good!!!
Journey has been my top band since the 70's when Steve Perry became their lead singer. Steve Perry is in my top 5 male singers to this day.
I'll get crap for it most likely but I want to recommend 2 bands of brothers. They're music is incredibly similar because they often shared songwriters and styles. The Osmonds and The Jackson 5. The Jacksons tended more to Motown style and The Osmonds more towards Pop/Rock. Both had little brothers (Donny & Michael) who had great solo careers as well. Donny started doing solo albums in the early 70's while MJ started a bit later. Us preteen and teenage girls in the late 60's & 70's adored both of them.
One Bad Apple - The Osmonds (#1 Pop 1971)
ABC - Jackson 5 (#1 Soul/Top 100 in 1970)
You hit the nail on the head. I never thought of it that way but they HAD to be that good and disciplined and train your voice or you didn’t have a career. Period. And they tried brand new things that weren’t heard yet and experimented. They didn’t have the tech to make any sound.
Cliff so funny with all these hair accolades. MIght have to direct him into more of the hair bands 🤣
