No one can sing this song with such passion and emotion than Steve Perry. The other two that replaced Steve were fine musicians as lead singers, but, the heart and soul of Journey is still Steve.

OUR FIRST FAVORITE SONG WHAT A VOICE BEST HUSBAND FOR TWENTY YEARS AND TILL ITAKE MY LAST BREATH. WE LOVE YA STEVE SO GLAD TO SEE YOU COMING BACK FOREVER
Rolie is like Mike, Steve is like Dave, and Arnel is like Sammy. Steve is best, but they did great with steve and rolie. Still, I wish I could meet Steve or Neal, That's all I ever want.
u suck guys...not because arnel is a filipino you discriminate his personality as a singer... you fucking morons are only jealous...u dont have the right to insult arnel because if steve has godlike voice so do arnel is gifted too...so why you fucking morons always getting fucking comments like this?get lost..
@shadzZEeh Its not that arnel isn't good, its that he's not steve perry. The songs that Journey re-recorded in 2008 with arnel just didn't have the effect of the ones, Lights especially, from albums with Steve Perry.
To bashers & haters: A hater is someone who is jealous and envious and spends all their time trying to make you look small so they can look tall. They are very negative people to say the least. Nothing is ever good enough!

Steve Perry IS and will ALWAYS be "THEVOICE" of Journey!
and NSNJ can sing? bwahahahaa!! if you can sing idiot your popular right now or a member of a band...maybe you sound like a COW BEING FUCK!! Bwahahahaaaa!!! PROOOOOOOOTTT!!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
and STEVE is not 40 IDIOT hes 65 years old....do you expect that he can move and sing like Arnel do, this video says it all 35 years ago..HE CAN NOT MOVE and his voice has no BODY ....FUCKIN BRAIN DEAD!! prooooooooootttttt!!
NoSteveNoDick your idol up there looked like a GAY HAIRDRESSER..with a gay voice with zero stage presence, like watchin aflagpole singing admit it...the filipino guy voice has more body and he can move on stage like a real rocker,,,AND YOUR JUST AFUCKIN RACIST GAY FROG!!...so take this...PROOOOOOOOOOTTTT PROOOOOOOOTTTTT!!
And I can't help but be just a little offended at the assumption you made about me being talentless/tone deaf. You dont even know me. Give me a link to your youtube videos of you singing/playing an instrument before you call me talentless and tone deaf. And sorry 40 is old. You're just in denial. NiceTry. NOOB. Learn to Argue.
I've heard NSNJ sing and play, he is very good. 40 years old isn't old--that's still technically a "young adult." Trust me, NSNJ can't lose arguments.
Now, I dont know what you mean by very good because "very good" can be diff in people's ears. Now to NSNJ, show me your Videos or GTFO. lul, Young adult = early 20s-30s. 40 you would consider a mature adult, which in this case, NSNJ isnt.
Well, technically he's very good, He's on key, doesn't struggle to sing high notes, is quite a song-writer (he does write, play, and sing his own songs) and has a rather pleasant timbre to his voice. NSNJ isn't racist or anything: His remarks are geared toward an internet stalker (DeludedPerryFan1980) who has 126 alternative accounts (no lie). He LIKES Arnel personally--he just doesn't prefer him singing Journey (he's an old-school Journey fan). He's a Steve Perry fan.
Wtf? I said videos or GTFO. also hes not racist? Referring to asians as "Mongols" isnt being racist? Then if he isn't racist, then he must be the most ignorant un-educated cunt ever. Why are you brown nosing him for? The way he talks about Arnel doesnt sound anything like him liking Arnel. He's just a fan boy who's in a mid life crisis. Again, stop defending him, he's a "big boy" he can defend himself.
He's not referring ASIANS as Mongoloids (which means Retarded-not a racist word), he uses that word as a general insult! Like when you hear Middle School kids call people "fags" (they mean morons/retard, not "gay"-get it?) And I'm his friend, so yeah I often back him up in arguments. Whatever insults he says at Arnel is related to his singing--not personally.
LULLLLL. Look at this clown, You obviously are mad at Arnel because he is the new singer for Journey. You should learn to read and not just skim because I NEVER said Arnel was better than Steve. I'm Korean by the way. Let me ask you a question, IF I said Arnel was better than Steve, that'll STILL make me a FLIP? LUL, I am aware that Steve sings better but Arnel does a fine job too. Please stop calling people "FLIP" if they like Arnel's singing.
40 isnt old? what.. are you going through your mid life crisis? im 19 btw, as a paid musician I learn to enjoy alot of music almost all, except people like Lady gaga, t-pain, soulja boy, etc. I understand you're mad that Arnel is the vocalist for Journey now, but that doesnt mean you have to be racist about it. I'm going to be the bigger person and quit replying to your RAGE responses and let people enjoy this beautiful song.
Show me YOURSELF, not STEVE. Im tallentless huh. LOL. youre probably some old geezer whos just biter. lul, like i said stop bringing racism into this cunt.
one local TV station played this song over footage of the damage caused by the Loma Prieta earthquake. I'll never forget one woman who was helping to carry a firehose, purse on one shoulder, firehose on the other. her purse kept slipping and she kept pushing it back in place while struggling to carry the heavy hose. I always see that scene when I hear this song
I remember exactly where I was when I first heard this great song. I fell in love with Journey. They had the greatest fan club, Journey Force. I was a proud member. Lots of great correspondence about the guys, Christmas cards, pictures. Gave Force members special seating at concerts. Saw these great guys four times. Steve is still going strong. Glad to have him back in fine voice. Still good looking!!!
The entire Infinity album was perfectly composed and executed...it's like a single album-length 'journey'. Best album outside of Beatles ever. Steve Perry...best male vocalist.
One of the best singers of all time for sure. A tenor to soar over Schon's guitar. What memories Journey brings back for me. Late nights at the pool hall with my friend Kevin. Nights singing Journey songs at Karaoke. Sheesh now I feel old. LOL. Long live JOURNEY!
SP must have plenty of money. I hope so, because he is AWESOME! He has done so much, he deserves to relax if he wants to. I hope he is enjoying himself. If he decided to go on tour sometime, every show would be sold out!
to step5732, I agree with you, Steve doesn't need the money and he deserves happiness. He has given so much of his life to his fans and music. If he toured, shows would sell out! I'd be right there buying tickets!
They showed this on VH1 Classic one day and there was another song they showed right sfter this one and I've been trying and trying to find out what's it's called.Can someone help me out?
i know its lights i typed in city lights by journey on youtube adress and nothing came up on top but i looked down and it said lights by journey so shut up its called lights
wasn't this song used in a horror movie? if i am not mistaken it was "Don't Answer The Phone" or " Friday The 13"... Anyway, I am so pleased to find it here. TY for posting.
