I was surprised that this song only went to #68 nationally, as it was VERY popular on the West Coast... And similarly "Talk to You Later" by the Tubes didn't do much on the national charts, but it was also quite a hit in Seattle...
I love this song. I'm 47 years old and this was out when I was in high school. I didn't like it back then but now it reminds me of those times that are gone. I don't know why I didn't like it then................
This song has inspired me to dig out all my old Journey, Boston, Kansas, Styx and all the other 70's rock music I have and get in my 2010 Maxima (wishing I still had my 1973 SS Chevelle) and go for a long drive and listen to all that great music.
This is one of the three songs called "Lights" that I have on my mp3 player. The other two are by the Scissor Sisters and Styx. All three are awesome, and very uplifting.
I am 13 years old and LOVE this band. All I hear these days are "Nikki Minaj", "Drake", and "Young Money" Todays new music is called "Improving". WHY IMPROVE ON SOMETHING THAT IS PERFECT! -_-"""""
95% of teens these days listen to the same crappy pop songs over and over. if your one of the 5% left who still listen to real music, thunb this up, then copy and paste it to least 5 video's. DONT LET THE SPIRIT OF ROCK&ROLL DIE
@jtmiles580 I know when im at school talkin about my favorite bands and songs everybody looks at me and has no idea what im talkin about. I love journey
@optimusprime940 No way I love Journey.I apologize after I re-read the original post I just realized you were telling folks that hate Journey you can go fuck yourself.The way I read it the first time lead me to believe the opposite....My bad...Ooooops! I get tired of seeing people on here critisize other peoples loves with junk comments and I thought that it was a junk comment so in reality I thought I was taking up for Journey and the person that posted the video.Again sorry. Hope your not mad.
Steve Perry singing this song in the stands at the Giants World Series game, on national television with the cameras panning to the crowd, and the boats anchored in Frisco Bay outside the stadium, and a cold beer in your hand, bro, it doesn't get any better than this...
When the lights go down in the city And the sun shines on the bay I want to be there in my city Ooh, ooh So you think you’re lonely Well my friend I’m lonely too I want to get back to my city by the bay Ooh, ooh It’s sad, oh there’s been mornings out on the road without you, Without your charms, Ooh, my, my, my thumbs it up =]
@cashmate10 i really love this song you just cant forget the chorus lol !!!!!! learned the whole song the first day i heard cause i couldnt stop replaying it !!! lol !!!!!

@NoJboysAPN0Journey Still guess huh?? LMAO I told you TUFFY must be your Mom's ASS!! Cause it's quite TOUGH!! BWAAAAAA Tuffy!!! What the FUCK is a Tuffy???
1st of March is Justin Bieber's birthday. This little roach has been infecting the whole world. Because of him, the world of rock is extincting
So on his birthday, we all will go to his "Baby" official video and push the 'dislike' button so that the 'dislike' bar becomes 10 times bigger than the 'like' bar
If you are a rock fan, join with me and thumbs up me, copy-paste this message to all rock videos. We have 3 months to unite and fight against this little cock
Estimated friend, if you want to listen again this song and an endless number of successes of the love I suggest you to visit Radio MUSICA PARA MIMOS - looks for his direction URL in Google ( search Musica para Mimos in Google)-. best romantic music of all the times in Internet, is great, is very good ...!!!
this is one of my favorte guitar solos of all time...this is definetely my favorite journey song, great harmonies, great guitar licks, and overall just a great song
It's sad, oh there's been mornings out on the road without you,..
