The Voice.....nuff said...dude's a legend.

It's kind of a sad story. Perry suffered a bad hip injury while hiking in Hawaii. He didn't want to rush into surgery, but with a big tour coming up, his bandmates asked him to have the surgery. Perry refused, and this led to him leaving the band permanently. OF NOTE - this happened in the late 90s, WELL after the release of this song in 1984. To be clear, Steve was still in the band at the time of this song and video's release. It was just a side project he did between Journey albums, and it spawned three other hits, "She's Mine", "Strung Out", and "Foolish Heart". "Foolish Heart" is probably the one that got the most airplay besides this one.

I can definitely appreciate other male vocalists that are perhaps more technical, heck even... "better", but Steve Perry with Journey was a force beyond comprehension in how their songs felt so nostalgic even if it was your first hearing.

Steve’s voice is one of a kind. Smooth as silk and a little gritty at the same time. It’s rich and expressive, and he can do just about anything with it.

Perry is one of the greatest voices of his era. Period. Nuff said....

Great album from start to finish.

She’s Mine and Foolish Heart from that same album Street Talk is gold.

Awwww - I'm so glad you guys finally did this song - but a little sad that you didn't react to the video. There is actually a really funny one to go with it. Please please do Foolish Heart next. It's just vocal perfection. And I would still love a reaction to Journey's Don't Stop Believing.

At this point, Steve hadn't left Journey. This was just a hiatus from Journey for a solo album in 1984. He rejoined them for a couple of more Journey albums in 1986 and 1996. He recorded more solo albums in 1994 and 2018, plus a Christmas album in 2021. Basically Steve was in Journey from 1977-87 and 1995-98.

One of the very best male vocalists of all time. No ifs no buts.

We had the greatest music . Journey was a great concert and his voice pierced the sky

Love this song Steve left the band because he said in an interview he was burned out and wanted to take a break and the band wanted to keep touring he also said he was just not feeling what he was singing anymore.

When Steve did this song, he was still with Journey. I saw Journey in Seattle in 1986, and they played this song, even though it wasn't officially a Journey song. Great show. The Outfield was their opener. You might like them too.

He didn’t leave Journey at this time he just went off and did a solo album. He leave Journey a few years later over health problems. They wanted to tour for the new album and he was unable at the time. So that ended in time with Journey.

You've only just scratched the surface of Steve Perry's amazing vocal range and not to mention his falsetto like in Wheel in the sky, Mother Father you will really be amazed. I say this sincerely, I love your discovering them, I'm so grateful (for platforms like you tube and patrion) that new generations can appreciate what a blessing Steve Perry and Journey was and will always be to us all🎶🎤🎧❤️

He left because he got PTSD from overtouring and lost his desire to sing. Journey had the most punishing tours and Steve used to sing 4-6 nights in a row for 7-12 months straight for year after year.

Forever The Voice!!!

The original video is so good. I wish they would’ve watched the video cause it’s pretty funny.

In 1982, Journey guitarist, Neal Schon, was making projects outside of the band, which prompted Steve to make a solo album in 1984 (Street Talk). Returned to Journey at the end of the year, and they worked on their next album, Raised On Radio. In 1987, he was burnt out after nearly 10 years of recording and touring along with his mother dying, so he quit the band in mid-tour. He came back in late 1995, after touring for his second solo album (For the Love of Strange Medicine (1994)). His last album with Journey was released in October 1996 (Trial by Fire), and he injured his hip while hiking in Hawaii shortly after. He held off on surgery, which prompted the band to fire him 1998, after Trial by Fire fell off the charts. He holds a grudge against the members of the band, whom he felt were sticking their noses in his business with the surgery and then firing him, and he's been a solo artist ever since.

Yep... Steve comes in strong on this song!

You have to listen to "when you love a woman"....Ammaaazing song...beautiful!!

Consider taking from Journey’s ‘81 Houston Live concert; he is even better live, and you get the pleasure of observing his passion and how he works the stage and draws the audience in. The one I see highlighting his range and passion is Mother, Father; that comes from personal experience and I believe is a masterpiece that showcases just how great he is.

Journey was a band that had a singer b4 Steve but it was Steve's voice ND him that made journey global, but there was friction w/him and his band after several years but the Hawaii injury is really what did it in foe them all..

Steve Perry's voice is truly phenomenal! I would suggest you also check out his solo hits "I Believe", "Missing You", "Foolish Heart", "Captured by the Moment" & "She's Mine", as well as his songs with Journey, "Open Arms", "Separate Ways", "Stone in Love", "Wheel in the Sky", "Lights" & "Any Way You Want It".

He did how own background vocals to this song. This man is amazing.....

You will love, love, love getting into more of Journey with Steve Perry. Going all the way back to '78 with Feeling that Way/Anytime Gregg Rollie and Steve sing together on this one. "Still they Ride" is amazing "Mother Father" is a very difficult song to sing and Steve Perry recorded it in one take, but listen to the live from Houston version to the end Steve will blow you away with his vocal Range!
