still magical after all these years!

For 30 yrs

Right here!! Frigging love this song!!! AWESOME! 🤘

Yes!! Remembering those high school days! Great times, great music!!😁👍🏽🤣🎶🎶🥁🎸🎤🎹

machine gun

Steve Perry 🥰

Miss those days,there will never be another journey from the 80s👍

I am

Absolutely

Gen X here. The 80s were amazing.

Me too

I'm 18, I love Journey, most of the time I blast their songs! 🤘

well put!!!!!!!

Just saw them (again) 2/2/22 in Pittsburgh Pa. Missed Steve BUT it STILL was a blast from the past in the GREATEST time to be a KID....The 80's!!!

For real, it's so bittersweet.... we spend so much time when we're young looking forward to getting older and time seems to go by so slow and then as we get older time goes by faster and we want to go back...

@@marmoa yep I was born in 79...

You’re right on with that. I’m 51 and feel I grew up in the best of times

And no mobiles blocking your view

Touche ..my friend of the 80s ..took the exact words outta my mouth..long live the last of the boomers..( class of 81) best of times!

When I went and saw Journey with Toto the only complaint was the phones. It was such a good concert.

Amen 👏

That’s beautiful, man. 💯what you said. Great music can actually sustain you through difficult times. Been there. Sustained that. ✌️❤️✨✨✨

I literally lived the same bullied life as you described (just the other side of the coin from the dude’s side of it)! You wouldn’t believe me if I told you. We are the same age too. I’m glad you persevered and had great memories of Journey to look back on!

I was 19 when infinity was released. It completely blew myself and my friends away. And we lived in the SF Bay Area that was filled with excellent musical artists. This was, also, the same year that Van Halen's debut album was released.

Keep On Keeping On...🙏🏻😘

Right now you're that cool girl at a Journey concert!!!!!! Rock On, Nana!!!!!✌❤

You too? 😁

Steve is the BEST ❤

I agree.

Me too.

​@@rscarf1. Go back?? I never left!

Loved the 70s when I grew up in NJ. Different times. The 80s were great except for the nuwave music and hair bands. I loved the 90s too when I was young adult. Music has changed so much since those 3 decades.

I feel that way every day. We will NEVER have times like this again 😢

Heck Yes!! One of my very best memories!!!

Man, I so wish I had been at that concert! I actually never got to see Journey in concert, ever. So sad! 😢I do really miss the 80s!

We made the 80 s rock

-definetly !- 🔥 🤘 💯

Paul Rodgers from Bad Co has him beat hands down.

Yup! Just like a Journey virgin!

One of those rare "diamond" albums (over 10 million sold)...

Old man (62) who saw this and ROR concerts in the ‘80’s. Still fresh!!! Perry was unreal!

Shussssh 😆 rocking grannys its why we look so good haha

59 and still love me some Steve Perry and Journey and I'm ready to make out with Lisa Diserio (sounds Italian and she's probably a hottie) after listening to some Stone in Love 😍

@@johns.4331 Old lady that just knows good music when I hear it! LOL. Saw them - best concert ever! (Even though I've literally seen 100's of concerts. Steve had a God-given voice. Very rare!

@ Lisa Diserio I'm 58 and I can tell by your comments that you're still a fox!!♥️

I've been saying that for decades. He sings those high notes as if it's nothing! Hits them perfectly too. What a phenomenal voice.

@@maranderson7945 imagine what he could have done when he was truly feeling it!! Wow!!

Not to mention his patella! He has a very relaxed patella...

@Liberty AboveAllElse He's also got a very relaxed spleen...

That's the key to hitting those high notes with ease.

This song was HUGE then

It was one that I often overlooked until I went and saw them. It changed me

It’s one of my favorite Journey tunes and they absolutely slay it here

I love this song

I've always loved this song. And it was HUGE.

It's magical.

That’s what happens when you put the song first, such an underrated guitarist for sure!

​@msouza94 Neal is not underrated, you're funny!! 😅😅😅😅😅😅

@@DonCummins-kf3eoRegarded as one of the best ever!

The best part of it is the awesome bass line!

Agreed. Stellar.

Neal is the best melodic shredder of all time. Anyone can play fast. Few can play fast and melodic. The only other guitarist that I put anywhere near him is "Spyder" Neil Geraldo. Exquisitely fast but precise, perfect riffs for their songs.

@@doctordetroit4339 Agreed, Neil Geraldo is superb too

Lo que me gusta de S.P es q el escribio todas sus canciones q hasta hoy se escucha,genio

@@doctordetroit4339 I would add Steve Lukather and Vito Bratta to that list. Tasteful shredding.

Yep!

Saw it live at this time .. blew me away fucking aye Neil !!!

Personally my favorite song by them

Yes

This IS my favorite Journey song period. And this live performance is amazing !

Amazing. This entire concert....Mother, Father is more than incredible

almost super natural yep beyond belief

Neal nailed the shit out of it. Steve was all over it as well!

It’s great but on this tour there are several other shows where Steve obliterates this performance

Awesome concert!

I’m 11 years old I love the 80s music it’s the best type of music😍🥰

No question! My God!

It didn't matter what musical genre you pledged your loyalty to.... Escape was seen in almost everyone's collection no matter what

90s were great too

@@ApriliaRacer14 Agreed. I am getting a new appreciate for the 90's and how much rock and roll was on the radio and good music produced in that era. Once we hit 2000, it went downhill fast.

You notice they are all having fun!!!

Well said 👊

___----::::;'''¿¿¿¿???¡¡¿

I've tried to hit those notes. It hurts.

You misspelled Paul Rodgers lol I think Steve should get stem cell treatments for his throat and work back up to it. It's the configuration of the parts that make the final instrument - nobody can sound like Steve even if they work forever because only Steve has Steve's throat. Ozzy is doing a LOT better now, maybe we can get back the tones. I am not being an ass, I want this back selfishly for me, new music played on a one of a kind instrument that can maybe now be fixed and polished back up.

Yes 👍 💯

That is one cool 😎 rock band. Steve can sing 🎤 🎸 🎶 🎹 🎧

This was at the Houston Summit - man so long ago smh

EXACTLY!!!

YES

And no "woke" virtue signaling. Just pure music.

Plays WAY too much live.

Butterlevi he's num. 2 for me, behind David Gilmore.

Best melodic guitar solos not annoying

His guitar tone is so great as well

Turns me on still

You're damn right it is. Absolutely beautiful solo...so melodic. I will never get tired of it. It was cool to see Rick Beato validate what we already know. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/maqGlKZ3qb-xqqs.htmlfeature=shared

I am the parent of two millenial adults who grew up with a first class education in classic rock. One of them, my son, is infact a professional musician. Neither of them have any love for what passes as music among their peers. We talk about bands like Journey the way other people talk about sports!

@@jtoland2333 You raised those kids to be fine citizens. Props to you.

👊❤️

The Sze Progression, True that!

Missed not one note. Amazing!

They really were "tight" sonically .

Same here

Same story, too. Only with age did I begin to appreciate how talented the band really is. After seeing their 50th anniversary concert last year, to a packed house mind you, I realized not many bands could put on a 3 hour show of literally hit after hit.

P.s. your right NOTHING COMPARE S to that era

@@maggienelson8459 Yup! I'm stuck in the 80's

Yeah girl! 60 years old, and I'm still rockin'! Those were the days!

67 years old and yearning for those days. Saw them in concert in Lakeland, last tour with Greg Rollie. The Babies, with Jonathan Cain, opened for them. Good times!

62 years old & Rockin out & dancing like I did in 80’s.

Do you really have a #1 Journey song. ?

Patrick McKee I do! My number one favorite Journey song is Open Arms.

Send Her My Love but they have a great catalogue from which to choose. So many hits......

They were all hits!

My favorite Journey song? YES. No, which one? ALL OF 'EM!

You are right on. 👍 without a doubt

Rolie was better...sorry

TRUTH!!!!!!

Amazing - this is what live performance is supposed to be. Wish I’d seen them back in the day.

Yeah I don't think I want to see Steve Perry "twerking" lol... I'm not sure why you would even say something like that with regard to Journey! Doesn't really apply...

that's so cool!

Yep. Walking around with my boyfriend at the football games. Listening to Journey Escape uptown in the hardware store parking lot with everyone else while they cruised our small town two blocks. Waving at the cops wondering if they knew who had beer and who didn't. 😁 I suddenly miss my first boyfriend!

I can do relate to what you mean ✌️😎🥳

When I graduated in 1981 I bought a 1978 Pontiac Trans Am. When my dad drove me to the car lot to pick up the trans Am I had brought with me a Journey cassette tape. As I drove my trans Am off the lot I plugged in my journey tape and stoned in love was playing. Life was good

​@@joehall5272 Perfection

Dang never really thought about how good the music was back then we had so many great singers & bands they were all great .There so many talented artists it seemed like everytime u turn the radio on there was always a good song playing when they were on tour you just saw the band on stage not like the crap that out there now .Were did the yrs go?

Not true. Steve Perry had the original version of autotune installed in his vocal chords and ears. Back then it was known as analog talent.

Steve Perry can sing period

he ia up there with the best. Beautiful voice but he lacked range. I don`t think he took any vocal lessons but I could be wrong. Great frontman for sure.

Very few as good but probably none better.

In his prime he was magical. Just listen to the KZfaq videos.

👍👍 Norte 😆

NOPE

It taught us lovvvvvvvvve and to b stone in 💘

Its unbelievable really. Youre right

👍❤️

Yup that's what always gets me with this song, is you can clearly zone in on any of the instruments or vocals... superb awesome song.

@@schultzjohnd Neal Shon even put a little headphone surprise in at the beginning trying to blow our ears out while we weren't expecting it lol.

pyroman6000 yep, pop the Escape casette in and kick it with your buddies.

pyroman6000 Thank God!

Exactly right. Everything was better in the 80s. I feel sorry for my kids that they have to grow up with political correctness and garbage music on the radio.

Tim tidball, I still have that tape, dont play it anymore, but still own it.

back when we all had great songs and real music, what is out there now, vulgar rap which is so dam disgusting, and gay hip hop talent found on tv shows..the voice..all of this shit is a joke.

No, not really

Their new song is not bad but nothing near this magic

BRAD DELP.

@@dwainsellers6453 BOSTON!!!

One of the best voices in rock history

I agree,!!!!!! but Elvis is up there too!! Steve was so awesome, and hot back then...I'm 59 and still cherish this time of my life..

Neal Schoen isn't too shabby on the guitar. Believe he played with Santana as a teenager

Why Stone in Love didn't chart higher and stay there longer is probably one of the greatest mysteries of the universe. Hell of a song, dare I say comparable/better than a lot of Journey's more well-known songs, like Send Her My Love, Wheel in the Sky, Separate Ways, Lights, Faithfully. This song should be in heavy rotation on "classic rock" formats everywhere.

Squirrel Attackspidy :. I'm stone in love with Steve Perry..

Squirrel Attackspidy. 110%. There will never be another

Only Karen Carpenter could compare.

He sure did. Is your name Mitch Davis??? You speak like him...

agreed!!!!!

i feel like a lot of us just don't discuss it. It's Journey; an entity all on it's own. There's music and then there is Journey. Nothing to discuss

Journey was the soundtrack to my life then. I would play the tapes (then replaced then with the CDs) constantly. Steve Perry was as skilled a sooner as any I've ever heard.

And still has at 71

Absolutely!!!

@@beverlybozarth3921 His voice is just amazing.

So very true. I am grateful I grew up when I did.

I’m 55 myself . 15 years old when this concert happened . I know where you are coming from and could not have said it better myself

I completely agree 100%

I was lucky enough to see them 12 times in the early 80s. I definitely remember this tour vividly. Perry had a voice like God and Neal Schon was... mmmm. Good times.

Saw them twice in KC bin the early eighties n they were fantastic and sounded like their albums 😁🥰

At least we were lucky enough to witness the greatest music live on stage.They truly change my life

I am so with you. I was on the younger side and my Dad would not let me go to concerts. For the Frontiers tour they came close enough that I snuck out of my best friend's window when I was 13 and rode with her neighbor and his girlfriend we didn't get to the arena in time. Looking back I was very lucky I made it without anything happening to me. Her neighbor was much more interested in partying than the concert and got so drunk and high I had to drive home. I'm 5'2" now, I barely could reach the pedals.

Definitely, his one of a kind.

Nicht nur stimmlich 👌💖🌹

Absolutely killed it. He cranked on it for two minutes...I went back and timed it. haha

Absolfucklutely! Neil is a beast of player.

always

Phenomenal

At least you could spell his name correctly: “Neal”

Agreed. I'm amazed at how all the guitars sound like they're right off the album. They clearly had a team who knew what they were doing.

See it the other way round: studio sound was recorded without many technological embellishments, so when played back live is identical :) after all classic rock 'n roll sound is simple and straight (voice+guitar+bass+drums)

They did😁

The only other band I've ever heard that sounded this good live is Halestorm.

Although I'm not this band's biggest fan, they did write some songs that were part of the soundtrack of my youth. A couple of things that I notice here. First, everyone seems to be wireless. Given that the technology was less than 5 years old at the time, it's remarkable how well the band sounds. Second, Steve Smith, probably the most talented musician in this band, but still a ways away from his best, is already showing signs of greatness. A note about sounding like the record. I'm a huge Rush fan, and part of the allure seeing that band live was to see if they could play those complex arrangements well on stage. But I was more impressed with bands like U2 (who were just staring to take off at the time) whose live sound was vastly superior to their records'.

He was indeed the greatest. I listen to him every single day and never get tired of listening to that flawless voice.

perfection!

Journey deserves a movie; belong in the conversation with Queen and Led Zeppelin for greatest male lead singer.

@@Estrella21 He isn't dead. He stills sounds great even at 71 years old. Check out his new stuff.

@@pnuemam3330 100%

They literally tossed him to the side.

It really is. I play this on bass in a cover band and it's one of my favorites we do. How he hits notes just before the beat in the verse really propel the song. Then in the solos he does the main riff but up a fifth, which adds a really cool tension. So many guitar rock bassists just drone on the root because the guitars are so powerful and that's all they feel they can do, but Ross shows how you can keep it interesting and break through the mix.

@@kewkabe That’s nice to hear from somebody that knows. I have no music ability at all, but I could tell that bass line was special way back when I had the album on cassette. Some songs get weak towards the end, but this one has that powerful bass hook that really keeps me listening until the song fades out.

It's like there isn't a weak link in the band.

He was hitting those chords so hard when Perry came around him up front when the camera panned them, Im suprised Ross didnt rip the strings off that bass.

Yep....one of my fav drummers.....finally got to see him here in Houston when Journey toured with Def Leppard a while back.

still is......

Fuckin A he was. I used to watch his videos over and over, to learn certain techniques I can use. Even being a straight up professional metal drummer, those techniques worked so good. I took a little from every single drummer I've liked, and applied it to my style. There are too many to name been playing since I was 9 in 87'.

Steve machine gun smith....

Jonathan Cains writing was of a phenom....the ballads.....

Right on. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Sam Cooke who is Steve’s idol and inspiration. Has the same raspiness in his voice, and delivery of words.

Facts my friends. One of the all time greats. Don't stop beleive in last song on the Sapranos!

Steve Perry’s voice is pure gold

You don't think that David Lee Roth has one of the best voices? LMAO
