This beautiful man sings like an angel, I love Steve Perry with all my heart, and he has touched me in an eternal way, he is a gift from God, and I am thankful that he shared his gift with me. yours truly angela troutt
que pedazo de voz de este genio.no hay comparacion con steve de ninguno de sus reemplazantes,con la facilidad y fuerza que llega a los tonos mas altos y derrepente se quiebra.realmente extraordinario.para mi el mejor vocalista de todos los tiempos
can't tell you how many times i saw journey at the long beach arena.. this tour saw them at long beach and the forum in los angeles.this is what a band was all about, great front man with perfect vocals and neils guitar work.. and the tone of his guitar. the first time i saw journey off of the infinity album, it was just free setting and half of the arena was empty. i stood right in front of steve perry and was sold, that he was the real deal, not a studio done guy.
don't you know I'm alive for you? I'm your seventh son... have faith, believe... :) sorry, Steve Perry's the best... the very best! everyone else filling in for him are session musicians...
I saw Journey's Escape Tour when it stopped in Charlotte, NC back in 1981....That had to be one of the loudest concerts I had ever heard with Neal Schon's blistering guitar solos.....Loved every minute of it !!!!
@MAGNUM2F, totally! Still would love to see him perform, even the Anthem!! I just love his music! Prove he's done 100's of times! Need not prove, it's about the music, passion, love of life! Fans love him all over the planet!!
you could watch this performance of this track forever and not sicken could'nt you? Perry was born to write and perform this one song. If he does nothing else, he has nothing to prove to anyone.
Such raw emotion... Heart & Soul for sure... "The Voice" miss it... Words can not express enough how much this mans talent is missed. Not only can you hear the emotion but you can feel it into the very core of ones soul...
This is my personal opinion, but I prefer Arnel to Steve. That being said, no one, and I mean NO ONE, will ever come close to Steve Perry on this song. EVER.
The meaning behind this song is heartfelt! Yes you can feel the heart and soul behind "The Voice" as well as within. Watching their faces and seeing the raw emotion in this concert is breathtaking... NOBODY can replicate, duplicate, or depict such emotional talent and magic like Journey~Steve Perry. They leave us coming back for more NO matter how many years have gone by...
4:56 The Perry-Smith unity, I love it when those two meld voice and drums, its just untouchable. Particularly from 5:05 and then on to Perry's falsetto, you cannot get any better
Journey~Steve Perry will always be remembered because of the collaboration of Steve Perry 'The Voice", Neal Schon guitar, Keyboard Greg Rolie/Jonathan Cain, Bass Ross Valerie, and Drums Ansley Dunsbar/Steve Smith.
@MAZorgJourneySPfan Paul Rogers of Free and Bad Company is known as " The Voice" Just saying.... But Steve has a voice that not many can touch on the high notes, not even Mr. Rogers (lol) Steve has such control over those high octaves but he doesnt seem able to get that raw R&R and vibrato of Rogers. But hey, we all win in this game. Would be Great to see Steve back out there again even in some type of mixed Super Group setting like Ringo's Allstars.
@TheStealer69 - good comment and i like paul rogers - BUT - i guarantee more people have heard/known/remember/ love steve perry over rogers. whenever "greatest frontmen of all time" lists are made, perry is at (or near) the top. rogers is a good singer - but he's NOT close to perry.
look at what perry has done without journey ??? nothing. as for rogers, free, bad co. the firm, fronted queen. open your ears. only journey fans care to listen to steve, and rogers is nicknamed "the voice" sorry, you just got to look it all up. and i dont think steve could pull of any of pauls stuff. he just doesnt have that r&r voice. and for laughs rolling stone has rogers at #55 and perry at #76. i guess i gotta take my gloves off for that stat. okay, i'm ready...........
@TheStealer69 - first, i'm not a fanboy or anything so i'm not going to fight. but for you to listen to rogers and perry sing and insist rogers is better is laughable. could perry sing "simple man" - hell yea. could rogers sing "the partys over" or "anyway you want it" - no. as far as perry not doing anything since journey? he's made it clear over and over that he has NOT wanted to do anything and just live a private life. i've never read a RS mag in my life - so i really don't care.
This, ladies and gentlemen, is a gift... It's a big world, with lots of people. Many have a gift - but here, this is one who's using it - and it's incredible, at least to me. As he says in other places, a voice is not like a string that's pressed against a fret, or a key that's stuck - this is human, and fragile. I happened to grow up in this time - but I'm enjoying it perhaps more now. Lucky....
Mother Father is one of their best lyrics. ALL Journey~Steve Perry songs are AWESOME!
This is one awesome song that should have been played more. It should play today. Mother Father would hit close to home with many families out there today! It would go threw the charts!
What a fucking voice..sound like girl being rape..No wonder NoSteveNoJourney like steve so much just sucking steve dick. This title should be MOTHERFUCKER.
This is one of those songs where your goosebumps get goosebumps.. Steve is always good at changing your emotions to calm/soothing to an urgent/skeery...lol back to calm emotions. Never has there been a greater singer to take your emotions on a trip and then you bring you back home again.
Indeed, Vegas 2008 Deen's version was incredible. keep supporting Journey band, I am sure you like Deen and as I do idolise Neal Schon. AP is the Chapter 6 of Journey's history book. AP himself said that he is a huge fan of SP. And Journey-Sp helped him to survive from homelessness through singing Journey SP songs in the 80's. Keep Journey band rocking!
This is one of the most demanding songs I think that Steve has ever done. Hearing this song never ceases to amaze me at his sheer talent, his overall passion and the emotions with which he puts forth to give this incredible performance. The way he appears totally wiped out at the end of this song just speaks for itself and just proves that he always strives for and reaches sheer perfection in all his music. He is just the best of the best.
I can never hear this song and keep my eyes dry at the same time, for some reason. As beautiful as the song was on the record, Steve really takes it to another level of feeling live. I agree with jumpygirl3: no one can put the passion and emotion into a song the way he does!!
This beautiful man sings like an angel, I love Steve Perry with all my heart, and he has touched me in an eternal way, he is a gift from God, and I am thankful that he shared his gift with me. yours truly angela troutt
