DAMN, Steve! Do me like you do your microphone from 3:35 - 4:09 and then look at me that way. Could just eat him up with two spoons :P Oh yeah, his singin ain't so bad either ;)
Ah when Journey was Journey! Steve's performance is soooo heartfelt and soulful ~ the entire band is on fire. I wonder of Steve's flowy shirts in those days were influenced by Japanese kimonos? Much sexier of course ;-)
Oh my goodness, Yum! Steve Perry, you always do it to me Yum! Thee most Sensual singer ever in the world. Everybody misses you so much in the music, on stage, on radio, Everywhere. Perryon ~ 2011 and Beyond!
i know man music sucks these days! everytime im in guitar center its jus a bunch of punks slamming in low tunings haha and screaming n shit, oh man i wish the 70s and 80s music came in my time, but dude open arms is an amazing song! i love thats ong so much but this song is awesome too! i guess they never made a studio version though, but with journey most there live stuff is way better live then studio

Journey`s on the road again! And they started their tour in Japan. Look for concert tickets soon. This is a totally awesome live version. That`s why they`re still touring today because of the fact that they do sound this good live.
This song is way under-appreciated in my opinion. Neal just crushes the guitar and produces way more emotion than most most other axe men in his generation.
I'm not a huge Perry fan, but this also is one of his best songs as well. It showcases what a strong voice he had in the late 80's. Sounded like he may have forgotten the lyrics at the start there though...
It surprises me how few people seemingly like this song. To me, it has great power, great feel... Can't wait to get Departure so that I'll be able to hear the studio version, as well!

Now this is the so much better than open arms. By far the best as far slow songs and heavy... Why can't there be music like this these days.

Great song, but horrific camera work for this song at this concert........sad since the rest of the concert is pretty great camera-wise.
