      Not sure what to feel when I hear/watch this.
      Brings back an upwelling of emotions…….not only gratitude seeing them 1982 in Pasadena at the Rose Bowl, but being the soundtrack of my youth.
      So damn thankful I got to witness this iconic singer and band. Thankyou boys for your dedication to craft. One hell of a ride

    I love Journey my first song I heard from them was Lights. I was stationed in Western Germany on a mission of peace. We had to do a tour of several months at an undisclosed location. My friend was sitting in the stairwell after we took care of something important for our country. So there I was in a stairwell in some foreign land and I’m glad we had music like Journey to enjoy

    This performance, as well as this entire show in particular, has to be one of the best live vocal performances of any artist. Steve's raw talent appears flawless and without effort. He could sneeze and it would be multi-operatic. Love him so much, so happy he has decided to return to music after all these years.

I have a brain injury from a motorcycle accident so it's hard for me to recall the exact years but I saw them last with Arnel in Reno and he was almost as good morning as Steve Perry, but I have saw them with every lead singer and by far Steve Perry was the best and Arnel is the best replacement singer.

His special Charisma and Spectacular Vocal Capabilities make him a Top Showman who is uniquely, a "One Of A Kind" in the Rock-N-Roll World. I know Steve Perry's sincere and heartfelt Voice has certainly touched my life and heart, in a special way. Love "Lights" and many, many more Perry favorites. Thank you, more than you'll ever know. 🥰🎙🎶❤️🤗💜👏👏

    I first heard this in 1978. I liked it but I knew of Journey and wasn't a fan. It wasn't until I heard the album "INFINITY" (which includes this song) that I realised this guy wasn't like old Journey and could belt out a fucking tune. Just listen to "La Do Da" and you are blown. GREAT SINGER, POSSIBLY THE BEST EVER.
