One funny thing that I have found during my sort time is that sometimes you can have extremely beautiful women or people in general or very talented when people mix their races. This is not even in scientific sense nothing new as different genes will make better results and lower the possibility to a genetic errors as have happened in the past when royalties across the Europe where almost all cousins or what ever between themselves and then they got this hemofilia and other severe problems. To have one of the best male singer ever and beeing a mix of asian and white tells it all. From all the other living things, people have made borders between other people and spesified others to be something else than they are and at same time some low life goose, or bear or fox or wolf goes across the border and find his or her mate and have a punch of puppies. I mean really you people??? You may think this is absurd, but think about this: ¨While we have tried for decades now to reach other intelligent beeings in the universe, what are the odds if they have any clue of what is going on here between us humans that they would ever want to contact us??? Seriously? If in your neighbour there is an abusive man or woman as it is even more common in reality in partnerships and women are also more prone to use violence , but not recorded as the damage and the pride of men makes this shade over this thing too along with the most difficult tabu ever called crib death. If we cannot be honest to ourselves and we just kill each other from decades and millenials to infinity... What intergalactic race if the travel even ever is possible would make friends with us??? Not a FUCKING ONE CIVILIZATION EVER want to make friends with us unless their planet just accidentally goes near my by in some weird free fall...
Mother, Father from this same concert is an amazing vocal. Let's be honest, everything Steve sings is an amazing but that one is a track most people outside of lifelong Journey fans haven't heard and he slays it.
My girlfriend dragged me to see JOURNEY, as I thought they weren't my style. But when I heard Steve Perry sing live, I was blown away. 40 years later, it remains one of the best vocal performances I've ever seen.
I actually saw this tour but near the end in Ca. And yes they are fabulous live. Actually I prefer them live. If you want to see him go beyond with his voice, Mother Father from this same concert
Best recommendation I can give: From the same concert, listen to Mother Father. One of the best rock vocal performances ever caught on video. Just stunning.
Please react to "Mother, Father" The live version...Escape tour '81. Incredible, incredible vocals. The best performance by Steve in my opinion. Powerful lyrics and vocals!
No video walls, no dancers, no ornate sets or 15 costume changes. Just talent and energy. That's the way it should be if you're going to call yourself a band....
Nonsense. Today’s bands are keeping up with, and taking advantage of technological breakthroughs to add even more to the concert experience. So, just like when your daddy told you that Rudy Vallee was the “end all be all”, and you rolled your eyes at him, today’s artists are rolling their eyes at you now.
It used to be that the studio helped make talented people more presentable. Nowadays they take commericial looking types and try to make them seen talented. There are exceptions, of course.
This entire concert is amazing!! I saw this as a teen back in 81' when it was shown on cable (which was a new thing at the time). My friend recorded on his (New thing at the time) VHS. We re-watched this concert a million times!!
Steve was actually a shy guy. Comfortable on stage and very natural voice. He and Neal, guitarist, complimented each other very well. The chorus didn’t happen until 2:32 into the song.
Love your reaction! Open Arms, Mother Father and Stone in Love from the same 1981 Houston. Also Lights/Stay Awhile Live Osaka 1980, Faithfully, Walks Like A Lady, When You Love A Woman, Lovin Touchin Squeezin, Wheel in the Sky, Why Can't This Night Go On Forever, etc etc. Journey with Steve Perry's vocals are 🔥🔥🔥
If you want to hear Steve's angelic voice hold a long note, MOTHER FATHER. From this SAME show. This was my first concert when I was in high school. The crap music today is really sad. I love watching people say, "How can they sound the same,, or BETTER, live?" than the released track. When musicians did NOT have computers to make them sound like they could play.
Maggie, have you listened to any recent Steve Perry? Yes he has aged and so has his voice, but he still sounds great! You need to hear When you Love A Woman, it's when Steve rejoined Journey for one last album.
Every song by Journey with Steve Perry is good :-) The “Escape” concert was awesome, “Mother, Father”, “Lovin Touching Squeezing” “Open Arms” “wheel in the Sky” “ Any Way you Want it” Faithfully is for me one of the dullest songs and one of the few I like better in the original video, the video is so beautiful and emphasizes the depth of this song. Also excellent “When you love a Women” And there is so much more, Steve, the voice, is simply a gifted singer and his voice is out of this world.
Steve Perry is a Legend! "Don't Stop Believin' " is one of my all-time favorite songs. It's on my short list of when I hear this song I have to stop and listen to the whole thing and if I'm in control, I crank the volume. This is quintessential 1980's Rock.
there is only one quote that ended it all a reporter ask freddie mercury what's it like to be the best singer freddie said "i don't know ask steve perry"
This song is more popular today then back then. Live singing was the rule back then. How he can sing perfectly with his head so tilted always amazed me. I attended a concert on that tour. Lights is a great tune.
Can't pick one. Too many. Love the Lights/Stay A While combo...live in Japan, Faithfully...official video, Mother Father, from this same Houston concert, Send Her My Love...just to start with. Lol
I believe this is my favorite song of theirs. Steve is definitely one of the greatest singers ever, also Journey is an iconic band. Steve is making a comeback in 2024 after a long hiatus. Im really looking forward to be hearing from him again.
Being a professional singer, you might appreciate this article that I came across about Steve Perry, the lead singer: “Steve Perry has the range of a high tenor and solid alto and is considered a countertenor. He is a rare tenor altino, a rare form of countertenor, a voice that many consider incomparable. His voice is very recognizable and a longtime friend of Perry's, Jon Bon Jovi, gave him the nickname, "The Voice."” Bon Jovi gave him the moniker in 1989 and it stuck with him for over 20 years.” Could you please react to the Official Music Video for the song “Faithfully”, which includes live performance segments and tells the story of the song! It’s my favorite song of all ❤ Amazing song and video!!!
Just saw a Jeans and Classics with Orchestra Kentucky two nights ago. Listened / watched this reaction to be reminded just how much better the real Journey was. And what I heard two nights ago was not bad.
The most fun I've ever had was with this song. I went with my daughter's high school band to New York. We went to the Stardust, and the servers sang this song. The whole school band joined in. If was so great. It felt like even the floor was vibrating. The drinks and silverware were visible vibrating. The servers were shocked that a high school band knew every word of this song.
Steve is such a nice person as well. He lived in my area and at one point he was would sit in with local bands as a drummer and sometimes singer. We didn't know he was this level.
Steve Perry's greatest gift wasn't merely his voice, but his ability, his willingness to sell out to the moment and the audience. To give everything to the song and the emotions of the lyric. Originally Frank Sinatra was the first to be called "The Voice", but when it comes to this type of modern music Steve Perry wears the title well.
Stone in Love is probably their best rocker. I would love to hear you do that one. Faithfully and Open Arms are incredible ballads. I love Lights and Feeling That Way/Anytime when Greg Rolle was still with them.
HE WAS GIVEN A NICKNAME BY JON BON JOVI FOR A REASON! HE EARNED IT! HE IS THE VOICE! AND TRACES IS A GREAT ALBUM! WANT A TRACES 2! DOESN'T HAVE TO BE CALLED THAT! JUST DO IT THE SAME WAY ! IN YOUR BASEMENT MR PERRY!
I grew up during this time. And nobody faked it. It was all legit such a great time to grow up in! There were no backing tracks you got what you got for anywhere from $10-$20 for a ticket! Sure miss this time this music in those days great reaction and yes, Steve Perry was known as the voice back in the day
I saw them live at my first concert at 12. In Seattle, WA. It was this tour. Steve Perry the singer was my all-time crush…named my cat after him. The version you mentioned at the end was authentic lime the album…somebody else sang it the way you just did.
What should I react to next?! Sponsor a reaction on my channel here: www.maggierenee.com/book-me/sponsor-a-reaction-live
Brooks and Dunn "Believe" You will absolutely cry

From this same concert the song Mother, Father will amaze you.
Mother Father from this performance is absolutely my favorite. Incredible vocals
Mother, Father from this same concert is an amazing vocal. Let's be honest, everything Steve sings is an amazing but that one is a track most people outside of lifelong Journey fans haven't heard and he slays it.
My girlfriend dragged me to see JOURNEY, as I thought they weren't my style. But when I heard Steve Perry sing live, I was blown away. 40 years later, it remains one of the best vocal performances I've ever seen.
"Mother Father" from same concert will blow you away. Steve said it was the hardest song for him to sing.
You have to watch the song Mother, Father from 5his same concert. What a rocker
I actually saw this tour but near the end in Ca. And yes they are fabulous live. Actually I prefer them live. If you want to see him go beyond with his voice, Mother Father from this same concert
My fav is " When you love A Woman ".
No auto tune,no lip sync,no WAP,just pure talent.
When You Love a Woman the official video is a great song
SO great to hear someone sing along with Journey who can actually sing! Unlike so many others who try. 👍 (you know who you are!)🤣
Best recommendation I can give: From the same concert, listen to Mother Father. One of the best rock vocal performances ever caught on video. Just stunning.
Favorite song is “Faithfully”, but best live performance from this concert is far-and-away “Mother, Father”. Incredible!
My favorite Journey song is whichever one I just heard.
Yes, Mother Father is absolutely brilliant in this concert.
@@robertfindley921Well said! 🎶🎵🎶
Two words: "The Voice"
Mother Father Live from this same concert
Please react to "Mother, Father" The live version...Escape tour '81. Incredible, incredible vocals. The best performance by Steve in my opinion. Powerful lyrics and vocals!
You NEED more Journey in your life.....this entire Houston concert is on youtube as is a Japan concert.
There are no bad Journey songs but Separate Ways will always be number one in my heart and soul!
Thanks for the request, Trixie! My favorite Journey songs are "Lights", "Lovin Touchin Squeezin", and "Anyway You Want It"!
I’m Cryin’, Sweet and Simple, Mother Father, Too Late, Patiently, Still They Ride….just to name a few lesser known songs
No video walls, no dancers, no ornate sets or 15 costume changes. Just talent and energy. That's the way it should be if you're going to call yourself a band....
HOLY WORDS 👍👍👍👍
Nonsense. Today’s bands are keeping up with, and taking advantage of technological breakthroughs to add even more to the concert experience. So, just like when your daddy told you that Rudy Vallee was the “end all be all”, and you rolled your eyes at him, today’s artists are rolling their eyes at you now.
All Steve needed was a tight pair of jeans and your Aunt's favorite blouse and he was ready to roll.
It used to be that the studio helped make talented people more presentable.
Nowadays they take commericial looking types and try to make them seen talented.
There are exceptions, of course.
@@jakemaattanen Strippers with autotune...
Mother, Father live in Houston!
"Stone In Love" My fav hands down
Mother Father from this same show greatest live vocals ever IMO!
This entire concert is amazing!! I saw this as a teen back in 81' when it was shown on cable (which was a new thing at the time). My friend recorded on his (New thing at the time) VHS. We re-watched this concert a million times!!
Great song, enjoyed your reaction. Journey has a great discography, my favorite of which is Faithfully.
It's been said that this is the most played song in the world. Every minute of every day, this song is being played somewhere in the world.
I can believe it... so sick to death of this band... used to like them, but now it's over kill
Hell yes more Journey. Loving, Touching, Squeezing; Lights, Faithfully, Open Arms, and many others. Yes please.
Of course Anyway you want it Live in Houston is powerful and very energetic
My first Journey 45 was Loving Touching Squeezing
Great song
Did you know, there was a Journey arcade game. It had a tape player inside that played their music along with the game.
Wheel in the Sky , Faithfully, Open Arms in that order
Oh those jeans😂 also who doesn’t love this dude?! Lol
I saw this tour live in Hartford, CT, three nights in a row.
Flawless voice, he was running up and around the stage. Phenomenal.❤❤
Steve Perry and Rik Emmett of the band Triumph, had(have?) a mutual admiration society for each other's vocal abilities. 😊
This is so awesome! No auto tune. Just pure raw talent. They did not call him "The Voice" for nothing! Love your reaction!
Open Arms and Faithfully for their slow songs 👍
Lights
Lovin' Touchin' Squeezin'
Who's Crying Now
My favorite is "I'll Be Alright Without You"
If you think about them doing 270 shows a year, probably for 15 years or more, the ease onstage becomes much more ordinary.......for them.
You should check out Lights and Stay Awhile, played together Live in Japan 1980. You can hear more of Steve Perry's range
Saw them live 1985,,,outside concert started lightly raining, Steve said if yall are not leaving, we'll play. 3 hour concert. It was awesome.
Steve was actually a shy guy. Comfortable on stage and very natural voice. He and Neal, guitarist, complimented each other very well.
The chorus didn’t happen until 2:32 into the song.
Favorites to me are "Faithfuly" and "who's crying now"
Forbes magazine said this is the most successful song of all time.
Love your reaction! Open Arms, Mother Father and Stone in Love from the same 1981 Houston. Also Lights/Stay Awhile Live Osaka 1980, Faithfully, Walks Like A Lady, When You Love A Woman, Lovin Touchin Squeezin, Wheel in the Sky, Why Can't This Night Go On Forever, etc etc. Journey with Steve Perry's vocals are 🔥🔥🔥
"wheel in the sky". Classic Journey
If you want to hear Steve's angelic voice hold a long note, MOTHER FATHER. From this SAME show. This was my first concert when I was in high school. The crap music today is really sad. I love watching people say, "How can they sound the same,, or BETTER, live?" than the released track. When musicians did NOT have computers to make them sound like they could play.
Don't have to imagine. I have seen them 4 times in concert. Love there music.
Maggie, have you listened to any recent Steve Perry? Yes he has aged and so has his voice, but he still sounds great!
You need to hear When you Love A Woman, it's when Steve rejoined Journey for one last album.
Every song by Journey with Steve Perry is good :-)
The “Escape” concert was awesome, “Mother, Father”, “Lovin Touching Squeezing” “Open Arms” “wheel in the Sky” “ Any Way you Want it”
Faithfully is for me one of the dullest songs and one of the few I like better in the original video, the video is so beautiful and emphasizes the depth of this song.
Also excellent “When you love a Women”
And there is so much more, Steve, the voice, is simply a gifted singer and his voice is out of this world.
Steve Perry is a Legend! "Don't Stop Believin' " is one of my all-time favorite songs. It's on my short list of when I hear this song I have to stop and listen to the whole thing and if I'm in control, I crank the volume. This is quintessential 1980's Rock.
Love this song
From a musical, lyrical and vocal performance standpoint... my favorite is absolutely "Mother, Father" from this same 1981concert in Houston.
there is only one quote that ended it all a reporter ask freddie mercury what's it like to be the best singer freddie said "i don't know ask steve perry"
Favorite song Open Arms for Performance Mother Father live in Houston the vocal acrobatics are incredible ❤❤❤❤
Love my Journey! Sounds so good! Woohoo!
This song is more popular today then back then. Live singing was the rule back then. How he can sing perfectly with his head so tilted always amazed me. I attended a concert on that tour. Lights is a great tune.
Can't pick one. Too many. Love the Lights/Stay A While combo...live in Japan, Faithfully...official video, Mother Father, from this same Houston concert, Send Her My Love...just to start with. Lol

"faithfully" and "when you love a woman" are my fav Journey tracks... Steve Perry is awesome!
As a drummer gotta shout out the great Steve Smith on Skins… IMHO the best Journey drummer. Great reaction and review 👊🏻
I agree! Love Steve Smith
Just saw a Jeans and Classics with Orchestra Kentucky two nights ago. Listened / watched this reaction to be reminded just how much better the real Journey was. And what I heard two nights ago was not bad.
Love you Maggie, thank you for the joy you bring with such a lovely smile
They are Epic live, Stone in Love is my favorite Journey song
Second the Stone in Love selection!
Faithfully 😊
Journey live 1984 was amazing
Can't pick a favorite of theirs, they're just that damn good
I saw them in Dallas just a day or two after this very performance in Houston. Just an unbelievable show.
The most fun I've ever had was with this song. I went with my daughter's high school band to New York. We went to the Stardust, and the servers sang this song. The whole school band joined in. If was so great. It felt like even the floor was vibrating. The drinks and silverware were visible vibrating. The servers were shocked that a high school band knew every word of this song.
This is #1. Then Faithfully
Famous for being one of the best concert bands ever. Regret never seeing them. Thanks Maggie!
Wheel In The Sky, Lights, Stine In Love, Separate Ways
'Faithfully'from the same concert is amazing but if you want head melting vocals listen to "Mother, Father' from this show
So enjoy watching Maggie's reactions. Her love and appreciation for music is evident, and she makes me happy even my day sucks. Thank you for that.
Lights, Mother,Father and who's crying now...all live please 🙂
I’ve always liked this song, and this live performance is terrific. Great reaction, Maggie.
Steve is such a nice person as well. He lived in my area and at one point he was would sit in with local bands as a drummer and sometimes singer. We didn't know he was this level.
"Lovin, Touchin, Squeezin" and Faithfully are my favorites 😍 ❤️ ♥️
in the 80s there wasnt any band any better...nice reaction....
Send her my love.... my favorite
I saw them live in Detroit in 1986 I was a Senior in high school sssssssoooooo awesome
Steve Perry's greatest gift wasn't merely his voice, but his ability, his willingness to sell out to the moment and the audience. To give everything to the song and the emotions of the lyric. Originally Frank Sinatra was the first to be called "The Voice", but when it comes to this type of modern music Steve Perry wears the title well.
Faithfully is really great too.
Great band, and Steve Perry is incredible. My favorite Journey song? "Lights".
Favorite Journey song is "Girl Can't Help It", from their album "Raised on Radio".
A legendary song for eternity!
Oregenal journey man The Golden voice The Best special singer forever Soo sweet smooth sounds already ❤❤❤❤
Stone in Love is probably their best rocker. I would love to hear you do that one. Faithfully and Open Arms are incredible ballads. I love Lights and Feeling That Way/Anytime when Greg Rolle was still with them.
Just watch the whole concert, my favorite 0pen arms
Mother Father, same tour- will melt your face. At the end, you tell me if he’s In Soprano territory….cause …..yeah it is😊❤
HE WAS GIVEN A NICKNAME BY JON BON JOVI FOR A REASON! HE EARNED IT! HE IS THE VOICE! AND TRACES IS A GREAT ALBUM! WANT A TRACES 2! DOESN'T HAVE TO BE CALLED THAT! JUST DO IT THE SAME WAY ! IN YOUR BASEMENT MR PERRY!
Favorite is Faithfully, Wheel in the Sky, wow … too many to mention
It's Steve Perry. He was always killing it.
WOW!!!! WHAT A TUNE LOVE THIS SONG.
Feel fortunate to see Journey in the early 80s Live. Heck of a show!
I grew up during this time. And nobody faked it. It was all legit such a great time to grow up in! There were no backing tracks you got what you got for anywhere from $10-$20 for a ticket! Sure miss this time this music in those days great reaction and yes, Steve Perry was known as the voice back in the day
Faithfully is my favorite.
I saw them live at my first concert at 12. In Seattle, WA. It was this tour. Steve Perry the singer was my all-time crush…named my cat after him. The version you mentioned at the end was authentic lime the album…somebody else sang it the way you just did.
This is weird, I think I was at that show. Summit Houston Tx. 1981. I might even have the ticket stub in an old box in the basement. 😊
November 6, 1981. What a night.
