WOW ... HAPPY63rd ..,.... HAPPY HAPPY BIIRTHDAY MY SWEET STEVE PERRY!!!!!!!!!! I hope you know that we MISS YOU!!! , my best wishes for you ,kisses !!!.........
YOUR FAITHFUL FAN FOR EVER AND EVER YOUR VOICE ´S AWESOME!!!
um I am not sure if any one has commented on this fact due to the fact of so many comments but as much as I love listening to Jovi, love his style of singing, and love his looks he is NOT the "very first hair metal rocker" I am an 80's teen & my fience worked the shows back then. think again & look into your hair band history deary.
People...comparing Steve Perry to ANYBODY is not fair...nobody will ever do what he did vocally but that doesn't mean they aren't also great singers. :) x
hhahahahahahaaa, Jon's vocal range is wider than Steve's? REALLY? You must be hearing voices literally!!! Without Richie Sambora, Jon is NOTHING!! Richie gives Jon his dimension and so-called register. Steve Perry doesn't need anyone to back him up, he does it himself.
@journeyfreek "journeyfreek" obviously a little bias coming into play here. Not only is your statement incorrect but it is also ignorant, jon bon jovi "nothing" "so called register", have a day off. If you had a shred of theory training you would know that JBJ's range is wider, there's no arguing that. When was the last time perry sang? exactly. I suggest a little research and musical knowledge before running down a vocalist such as jon bon jovi.
Some really stupid comments on here by people who obviously knoe F-ALL about vocal ranges. Jon Bon Jovi gave Steve the nickname 'THE VOICE', because in his opinion Steve is the greatest singer of all-time. Yet, of course you folk's would know better,LMFAO !!!! If Steve recorded and toured he would get his voice into top form as all vocalist's must do.
@rockinghell91 Don't know what year but I always date Steve Perry by his haircuts & what he wears in concert. This is definitely 1980's, he got that "shag" haircut for "Raised On Radio" album 1986 & tour, let it grow a little longer, so late 80's? I'm just beginning my "homework" on Bon Jovi, his hair length looks 1980's too. Don't know if it's this clip or not but I have heard one in which Jon says "we have a friend here tonight, Mr. Steve Perry" so I'm sure it's a BJ concert.
WHAT A JOY!!! A "double shot of my 'babies' love"!!!!! I don't know what, when, where...was Steve at a Bon Jovi concert or vice versa? Steve's hair looks like the Raised On Radio era... Anyway, simply GORGEOUS, both of them!!!
Wow two awesme singers on stage together!!! When Jon introduced Steve the whole crowd went crazy. I would love to see video footage of this concert but it seems like there is none. Thanks to idyintn we have the audio from it to listen to.
@master52394 Both great showmen & frontmen too, so yeah, that concert would be incredible! Bon Jovi's going to be in Milwaukee next month, we entered a radio contest for tickets: wish us all the luck in the world! I wasn't a fan of their music til "Slippery When Wet"; as a band, I think their last 3 or so albums are outstanding. As for Steve Perry...oh, don't get me started! Love almost everything he's ever done!
@koalajones88 Sinatra was not a rock singer. Apples and oranges. Compare him to Martin or Curtis, then you make sense. But of course, you don't know what you are talking about. (((YAWN)))......... You Bore Me.
@GoodGuitarSolos You must be kidding..they wouldnt call Steve Perry "The Voice" if not for his amazing vocal range and total greatness. Anyway, I am a huge fan of both and put them on the highest pedestal :)
@ambienmydog Watch my vocal range video for Jon Bon Jovi, and you will see what I meant. Perry has technically better voice (both of them are incredible singers) but Jon has wider range because of his strong low register.
@GoodGuitarSolos I'm 60, not a musical bone in my body but I'm trying to learn what makes "great" guitar AND vocals.Can't think of 1 singer to match Perry's range, power, purity, clarity at his peak-I wish there was more room here, he talks (Dec. ClassicRockAORmag) about how picky he was, didn't want a note or vowel "to be a nano-fraction out of pitch".JBJ: different, he didn't hit those high notes, but a vacaol coach says he has a great voice, can turn 1 vowel into 3 syllables, and he does..
@GoodGuitarSolos Part 2 Not knowing mucvh, I disagree with you so far.On a BJ doc a vocal coach saysJon can turn 1 vowel into 3 syllables/notes?( I think Perry could do 6!) and JB DOES, watch Hallelujah (Leonard Cohen's favorite cover of his own song! It slays me.) I want to learn,from people who know---when you say "technicality" I don't know what you mean! You are free to ermail me: it should be in my profile, or find Jan Odegaard on FB (I hate it) & it should be there,. It's up to you. Peace.
@jannierocks Like I stated many times before, Perry is technically a better vocalist than Jovi (who is also really good). Still, Jovi has MUCH wider vocal range.
@GoodGuitarSolos Still having confusion!. For 3 yrs I've watched 20+ DVDs of Perry, solo & w/Journey, & about 8 of Bon Jovi, paying very close attention to every detail. Both have very good "technique"? but I still think somehow Perry has wider range. Come to think of it, tho, I don't notice Perry ever going very low (I think he would now, if he'd only sing something!). Jon has never, in what I've seen, done like what SP does in the higher range; the end of "Mother, Father" an example. Next:
@jannierocks Jovi's vocal range is wider because of his strong low register. Also, the ending of "Mother, Father" has fantastic E5s, incredible passage. Jovi has gone up to E5s too though, check out my video for him to see it. For example, the ending of "Livin' on a Prayer" (better audible with only vocal track) goes up to insane Eb5s.

Jon has never, in what I've seen, done like what SP does in the higher range; the end of "Mother, Father" an example. Next::
@GoodGuitarSolos Not only does Jon Bon Jovi have a bigger and wider vocal range than Steve Perry, but he is also technically better than Perry. Steve Perry is awesome, but he is done and has been done for a long long time. Whereas Jon Bon Jovi has been producing album after album and touring year after year for almost 30 years. Too pull that off is the sign of real strength in a voice. Not to mention jon has hit notes perry never has and furthermore can hit most of them in full chest.
@GoodGuitarSolos sorry mate Steve has a really big vocal range , i love jon but he has a small vocal range if your going to compare. perry hits high e, f , even g . one of the highest male vocalist in the world .dont get me wrong i love jon , but its so wrong to say he has a bigger vocal range than perry .perry is a singers singer!! just use your ear.
@jimmycupples Steven has pretty wide vocal range but Jovi has MUCH wider range in a sense that he has gone higher and lower than Perry has. Perry is technically more skilled singer but Jovi has wider vocal range (thanks to strong lows that Perry is missing). Both are amazing singers.
@michaelmerik I AGREE!!! I rather doubt there is a video of it, dang. It's my understanding that it was a Bon Jovi concert and for whatever reason, planned or not, Perry was there and Jon brought him up on stage. Whatever, it's a great moment with two of my absolute favorite rockers!
Hey this is amazing, thanks so much for posting it, i loved it. Loved the shot of Jon at 2.25, real shame Perry hadnt done one of those shots too! lol
Steve is soooo much better of a singer than JBJ, but Jon can still hold his own. Regardless, two legends on the same stage had to have been so cool, especially since Steve has dropped off.
@milomon2000 New Jersey Tour; Mountain View, CA; April 30, 1989 ... the night after Jon and Dot eloped to Vegas! Hope she is a Journey/Perry fan -- this would have been a heck of a wedding present!
MAN! That is a bummer... Would have loved to see this performance of two of the hottest singers and performers of the 80's... Just the though of them both together on stage.... Whew!
I have searched and searched and I can't find any video of them together. That would be a hell of a find. I only found this one picture of them, I know there are more out there, but I can't find them.
Knew about this, thanks! Two BABES together---ahhhh. Perry's my #1, always; HATED "meatl/big hair" bands in the '80's, (still can't stand metal!) but recently the newer Bon Jovi has me collecting.,and Jon BJ & Keith Urban are creeping up on my list...but no one will ever top Perry!
