Once,when asked how it felt to be the greatest voice in rock, Freddie Mercury said simply, "Ask Steve Perry".

The tonal quality of his voice dose not change through the octaves . It's a rare ability that very few singers have . That is what makes unique to your ears .

Absolutely-rare quality for sure.

Nice reaction video. Steve Perry is incomparable. He stands and delivers, pitch perfect, emotion-filled. One of kind. No autotune, backing tracks, computer enhancement. Great live performance,

Steve always put every piece of his every cell to every performance ❤️

His voice SOARS like no other...

This song gave me chills when it came out and 2024 I feel the same. Best vocalist EVER! He gives you all the feels

The Best voice of all time

Nobody sings a power ballad like Steve 🎵

Steve was "The Voice". But what girl would not want Steve singing to her. I saw Journey in person and Steve was amazing.

Short song but an eternal classic !💥

late 60's to early 80's was the golden age of rock

I was at this concert. Thank you so much for providing the opportunity to relive and your reaction brings it all back.❤❤❤❤❤❤

He sounds exactly like you want him to sound in person. I was at this performance and it was amazing.

Hi!!. I subscribed to your page through Journey, especially Steve Perry, who in my opinion is one of the greatest interpreters that have ever existed and is highly underestimated. After looking at countless criticisms of Journey's performances, I haven't come across any that say Steve isn't voice privileged. I am also a fan of Mercury and even so it seems to me that it is debatable in terms of vocal capacity. Mercury was a great Showman but Perry for me is the voice. Many judge Steve for not having the reaches of before, but what would have happened if Mercury had to suffer the same judgment today? It's not fair. Steve should be recognized for what he left us and what he can provide now. He did not die and he did not have such a controversial life, he did not have a movie and the new generations know him. But, that does not detract from his unparalleled contribution to music. Hopefully and the new generations can know about him. I thank you so much for taking the time to get to know him and I hope you make him known because he deserves it. Thank you. I'm from México SO sorry for the grammar mistakes.

CHILLS! Every time - CHILLS.

It's been over 40 years but hearing this live again still gives me a chill. Saw them on this tour in 1982, and again on the Frontiers tour in 1983. You can't go wrong with any song from this concert. They played newer ones from the album and some older ones that had the crowd on its feet and singing along.

Definitely one of the best concerts I ever went to. The show was perfect. And we knew it was being recorded, so there was a lot of excitement in the air.

Neal hated this song and didn't want it on the album; there wasn't much of a guitar part for him and it was soft. He tried to distract and sabotage Steve he was laying down the vocal tracks. But Steve and Jon fought to keep it on the album. Neal didn't want to play it live; when they finally did, the crowd went crazy. This is why women threw roses - and other things - at Steve Perry in concerts and why they started to show up in droves at Journey concerts. journey is one of the bands that pioneered the power ballad and this was one of the first. Steve is flawless; never loses his cool and oversings or goes off key, just relaxed and perfect with that lovely soft note at the end. Most guys can't keep still enough to accomplish that, but with Steve it was all about the performance and making it as perfect as he possibly could. And I think you'll agree that this performance was pretty darn perfect.

Thanks for playing my favorite Steve Perry song and Journey,Steve is incomparable nobody has ever came even close to him his voice is perfect he puts his feelings into music like no other he’s the Voice, I wish we could’ve lived the 80’s and 90’s forever ❤

You just can't help singing along to Journey.

Steve's voice is beautiful, he and Freddie both were gifted to us. ❤️ Seen Journey quite a bit, didn't get to see Queen or Zep though. 🥺 Imagine...arena full of screaming people and then you have the instruments blaring and you have to sing...perfectly??!?! 😳 And we get this...sublime. Say what you will about GenX and Boomers...BEST MUSIC EVER!! 👍🏽🤩

I love Steve Perry - his voice is just magical no matter when or where. I will sit and listen with you to his voice forever if you want.

Their best concert EVER!!!!!!!!!

This was my Senior Prom theme song, a long time ago and it still gives me chills.

That concert ... incredible!

His heart just goes out and touches everyone's hearts. AMAZING.

Jonathan Cain wrote part of a song with The Babys; he showed it to John Waite, who was not impressed. With Journey, Perry was talking about wanting to create ballads. Cain played what he had, then the two of them finished the song. Schon was not sure how the song would be received. They used the song in a concert ( before it had been released as a single ) and "the place became unglued" ( Schon's phrasing )

Now we're talking! 💕 I was 10 when this song came out, never gets old. Can you believe this band has never won a Grammy?

Open arms is one of my favorite songs, done by one of my favorite singers. That man has a golden voice, and is a smoking hot human being!

Jonathan on the keyboard 🎹 and Steve’s voice are so beautiful

They are so awesome. One of the greatest bands. Keep reacting to them.

The voice!

Great video, SalvoG. Love this song. And you’re, correct, Journey ruled the Power Ballad lane when they veered into it, which was often. BTW, Epitome is pronounced Eh-PIT-uh-MEE 😉

Steve Perry's voice is beautiful and powerful. Glad you reacted to this song

Hearing this actually makes me sad with all the trouble between the members now. But Steve Perry, during his Journey time or as a solo artist, just can’t be beat. His voice is Golden! Please, please, please react to some of his songs off his solo album Traces: 1) We’re Still Here 2) Most Of All 3) You Belong To Me

Steve Perry (known as "The Voice:") is incredible. Love this song, along with so many others of Journey. Their song "Don't Stop Believing" was inducted into the Library of Congress last year. Check it out from the Houston live performance (same live performance as this one) Amazing aren't they!

Lights, When You Love a Woman, Wheel in the Sky, his solo song Foolish Heart, all gorgeous

I'm shocked none of their hits reached #1!

Excellent point about Steve and Freddy. They wore their hearts in their voices, and both had such amazing tone and power no matter the octave they were in. All beauty.

It was on the radio a LOT that winter. I’m surprised it didn’t reach #1.

Big Journey fan here & I’ve never been able to believe they NEVER had a #1.

This is a beautiful power ballad that Steve soars with his amazing vocals. You will love it!

This (1981) was made in the format for MTV. It had to be short to fit into their rotation. Please watch other videos from that concert to get a better representation of how good they were. No auto tune, thats pure Steve.

Lights and Wheel in the Sky are the two top tunes downloaded now but in those days, the top two purchased nationwide.

Suggestions for more Journey: 'Still They Ride' live in Tokyo 1983, "Send Her My Love" official video, "Why Can't This Night Go On Forever" official video.

LOVE Journey! In my top 5 bands of ALL time! 🙂👍

thank you for being moved to sing along, and not being afraid to. i sing along every time too.

Steve Perry was definitely in a league of his own no singer could touch his vocal ability always pitch perfect

Amazing song and gorgeous voice❤ love it

First concert ever for me back in 84. Bryan Adams opened for them. Great show.

I think it "hits different" because it's not auto tuned or back tracked, it's live, like real live. Even if there is the odd pitch issue, it is still there, leaving a natural beautiful voice. The way a great singing voice should sound. Great work on your channel, really liking it.

Oh the MEMORIES!!! 🎉❤ I was able to see the Escape tour 6 times!!! I saw Frontiers in Philadelphia, June 4, 1983. JFK Jam ... The Tubes, Sammy Hagar, Loverboy and Brian Adams 🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶😎 rock n roll baby!

The best Malé voice ever no doubt about MR STEVE PERRY

I agree with you about watching Steve Perry and Freddie Mercury sing. They are both so emotive….they have the gift of giving themselves totally to the song. They are certainly in my top five rock/pop singers. Queen, especially, I fell in love with only after actually watching live videos of their performances. You’re right, Sal, Freddie and Steve take it to another level live

The difference is that Steve is ALWAYS perfect; perfect tone, controlled vibrato, never off. He also took care of his voice, which Freddie often did not. If you listen to the isolated vocals you'll see the difference.

@@marshabailey1121 Helene here. I hear you and I cannot disagree. But full disclosure on my part: I don’t value perfection in vocals as the highest goal. My favorite male rock vocalist is actually Robert Plant. Often very far from perfect, but captured me nonetheless. I value Perry for his purity of tone….Plant for his rawness and charisma.

This is one of my favourite Journey songs and it touches my heart every time I listen to it. Love Journey, and Steve Perry, The Voice is the best of the best. He is in a league all by himself. Would you please react to Still They Ride from their Tokyo 1983 live concert? I think you'd really enjoy that beautiful song. As well, I recommend Oh, Sherrie and Foolish Heart from Steve Perry's solo album Street Talk. He made two music videos for those and both songs are very powerful and gorgeous as well. Thanks so much.

Ex-husband played this for me as we were struggling with some issues and trying to decide whether to go through with our 1982 wedding or not. We did. We shouldn't have, but hey, hindsight and all that. Dang you, Steve Perry! I could have saved 7 years of my life and gone a different direction, but I didn't say no when presented with this song ... Thanks, Steve. LOLOL. Kidding, all mistakes made in my life are my own. But this song really brought a single conversation in a dark car with a cassette player roaring back. Memories and music go together...

Please buy their greatest hits cds and the live Houston concert. My favorite 😍

Been waiting for more journey thank, you still they ride live in tokyo is a good one. love your reactions to journey

Wait till you see STONE IN LOVE from the 81 Houston concert....OH MY!!!!!

I came to this with open arms. Love this.

Steve Perry is a heart breaker- fabulous!!

I couldn't wait for you to see the live concert videos, because you would then see for yourself that the songs sound better live, the vocals are much more emotional. So glad you did. Please, please react to "When You Love a Woman" this one's especially so beautiful Steve's vocals, Neal's guitar riffs and solos, Jonathan's intro, and the orchestra which takes this song to another stratosphere!

When I see him perform I wonder why I’ve not heard about him on broadway stage. He has such a moving and theatrical style.

Neil Schone and Greg Rollie were in Santana before creating Journey. Greg sang Black Magic Woman on Santana's hit song.

I graduated in 1983...Journey was/is a fave!!

This was a KICKASS show!

I never got that see Journey live, but I did see Queen, with Freddie Mercury. They’re both rock Gods to me, but Steve just melts my heart. Freddie was great, just a different style. Love them both but Steve has my heart.

One of the best live performances you’ll ever see. You have to react to Mother, Father from this concert. It is mind blowing…..Wait, you already did lol.

In 1981 Music videos were barely a thing so the fact that they have footage of their live concerts is damn awesome. Love seeing Steve in his prime. 💞

80's were all about ballads, REO, Def Leppard, Scorpions, Foreigner, and or course Journey.

I was on the edge of 17 when this album came out. Takes me right back there!!

You got a new subscriber! Also, you gotta check out "Who's Crying Now" from the same live performance in Houston. It's incredible - even better than the recorded version IMO.

The voice!! Enough said. ❤pls do Faithfully & Who’s Crying Now.

I love rediscovering this amazing music via your channel!!

As they say in Britain ~ brilliant ! This song will turn anyone's heart, trying to express their love, into sobbing knots. Been there done that, ~ Lori, you gave me Joureny ...and then you left. Yet still, my heart and arms are open all these years late ..... Peace, and love.

Back in the day when musicians were first trying to get their videos on the very new MTV… in those very early days the only videos musicians had were from their live shows!!! And I agree you can’t find better power ballads anywhere than Mr Steve Perry singing theirs to you!!! Man it was good to be a teen in the 80s!!! Our music was great… MTV was all about the music & the musicians… our fashion was crazy but we wore it with pride!!! My home stereo, my car stereo & my walkman wore out more than one cassette of every Journey album I bought over the years.

Listen to - When you love a Woman

Whenever I hear this song instantly, I am 12 years old again, slow dancing/slow rolling actually, at the roller rink.

What feels different.... That's ambiance of an original artist. They project the emotions from the soul. They move as the meaning moved them. And you feel what you're meant to feel. Something few and far between since.

I loved your reaction, dude

Oh boy. Today I was just working on some school work. I’m 17 and I’m an absolute fan of classic rock (And A7X) So here I am getting some work done working with the teacher on a laptop. Open Arms suddenly and randomly plays in my mind. I plugged in my earbuds and listened to it. Suddenly my emotions show me like I was half-sad and half happy. My left eye looks like it was gonna water and shed out a tear. Didn’t happen FYI. Felt like I just wanted to cry and sing along to this song though I was working at a desk with a teacher haha. My mother absolutely loves this song. She was born in 74’ along with my dad who’s also born in 1974. God I thank Journey for making such a memorable and greatest song ever.

steve perry is the man I want singing when I get to Heaven. Pink Floyd playing the guitar and Rush right beside Pink Floyd.

I can’t count the number of times my high school self sung this at the top of my lungs in my bedroom like I was a Journey back up singer. They were a huge staple of my childhood. Thanks for the memories.

Thank goodness for KZread so we can save the wonderful music your generation didn't get to hear!

The most underrated voices in rock.

The fact that they never had a number one hit is astonishing. This may be a testament to the music of that era.

Love Steve Perry also known as the voice. Suggest When You Love a Woman the video 🔥

In the early days, MTV actually didn’t have enough promo vids to show, hence bands having video singles from the same gig.👍😎

I have to say, I love your reactions as much as I do the music! You have an innocent intensity that puts you above the others.

"It's over already." Yep, that was how I felt about this song. I got Goosebumps, which were all over on my skin, and then the song was over.

In Journey's case, they didn't do concept videos until Separate Ways. So, yes, this was the official video.

No one can sing these songs like Steve Perry. Best voice I have Ever Heard! Concert I saw was so breathtaking! Saw them at this time, just the best!

Can you imagine if Steve & Freddie were able to sing live together as a duet?? GAAAAH! That would’ve been absolute heaven on earth.
