There's no denying the greatness of Jimi's vocals and how this live version sounds like the studio version. But also, let's acknowledge how rockin' the keyboardist is and how mellow the bass player is.

The most underrated band and singer in history

It is SO hard to find someone who can actually sing as great live as in studio. This is awesome.

Jimi Jamison was an amazing singer. Jim Peterik, co-founder of Survivor, keyboardist, co-songwriter for Survivo, etc. is also really talented along with Frankie Sullivan guitar player. Jim produced and wrote the songs specifically for Jimi' voice on the album Crossroads Moment. I could listen to Jimi singing forever.

God his voice is gold. Him and Steve perry man. I can’t believe this is live.

He sounds even better live. Truly amazing voice, taken way too soon 😔

Rock Musician. He will be best remembered as the lead vocalist for the rock music ensemble "Survivor" from 1984 until their disbanding in 1989. Born Jimmy Wayne Jamison in Mississippi, he moved with his mother to Memphis, Tennessee when he was an infant. After performing in a band during his teenage years, he joined the group "Target" during the 1970s. In addition to releasing a few albums, the band was the opening act for such groups as "Black Sabbath", "Boston" and "KISS". Jamison went on to the group "Cobra", prior to succeeding Dave Bickler as the lead singer for "Survivor" in 1983. Their platinum anthem "Eye of the Tiger" (1982) had already brought them commercial success and during Jamison's time as the front-man, they scored Top-Ten hits with "High on You" (1985), "The Search is Over" (1985), "Burning Heart" (1985) and "Is This Love" (1986). During the 1990s, he achieved success as a solo artist with the hit "I'm Always Here", which became the theme song for the TV series "Baywatch". In 2004, Jamison reunited with other "Survivor" band members to record a parody of their hit "Eye of the Tiger" for a Starbucks' TV commercial. They received a Emmy Award nomination. Jamison died from a heart attack.

That part where Frankie grabs JJ on the back was so funny. That cheeky grin. Forever missed.

One of the most beautiful songs ever written.

He was arguably one of the best singers of the 80’s.

I think he beats Perry in terms of how you can UNDERSTAND the lyrics. Perry's voice distorts the words too much. Jimi is able to hold a note and be clear. I used to think Perry was it, but I think the music industry greatly underrated Jamison. Even Gramm had clearer tones than Perry, but he lost his voice as he aged (medical reasons, I think). Jamison kept his voice for the most part until his death.

Nicknamed "The Voice". That's all. Just "The Voice". God given talent. Phenomenal

Such a underrated singer

Peterik was an awesome song writer and Survivor a very underrated band at a time when the word "music" still meant something.

This song is so difficult to do. He does it as great as the album live. Amazing voice...

Most underrated band/talent of the 80’s, especially after Jimi Jamison (RIP) joined them in 1984!!

Jim Peterik so got INTO any and all performances!

They were great live in the mid eighties!

Amazed at how great this song sounds live!!

I am a big fan of Jimi since Vital Signs. If you want to hear him at age 17 with the Debuts, just search KZread for "The Debuts, If I Cry". It was his first single and his vocals were unbelieveable already at that age. It was on the Scudder label and you could tell already that he was going to have a superstar career.
