Steve Perry didn't have to sing, just having him there was great to see....😍

Very classy of Steve to acknowledge and compliment Arnel.

The"Voice" and the best front man in Rock and Roll history.

the crowd is still standing throughout his entire speech! and I was one of them!!!

the Roar of the crowd says it all ! it says everything you need to know about this band !

You know what Steve looks like? A FUCKIN ROCK STAR! That speech showed astonishing humility with that high praise for his bandmates and that shout out to Arnel Pineda. Man ooozes pure class and greatness.

Steve giving his speech & is like he's singing, this man's voice is so smooth,,everything...

The GREATEST male voice of all time. We are not worthy

Whatever happened between these guys is irrelevant at this moment . Seeing them together on stage again is great! Steve Perry is the man in my book!

Steve Perry and Journey should have been in the Rock & Roll Hof years ago. It's great they finally are in.

Goes to show no matter what has happened to people in the past, some people have class and are appreciative of all that they have been given.

Steve Perry is really a very class individual...he was the only one mentioning Arnel pineda...he's so sincere and grateful to Arnel...and also he dont forget the original road crew of journey ...those kind words to his ex band mates was amazing...Steve is not a self centered person..he cares a lot with the people around him...what a cool guy...he really deserves that standing ovation and applaused to him...sure fans really miss him a lot...now on my own opinion...Steve is journey ...without him....their worth is not as like as before.

As always, Steve Perry is the ultimate class act! So nice he took the high road & gave props to ALL the band members, including Arnel. Oh yeah...CLASS ACT!

This man is a DIAMOND. He is the only member who did not give a long winded narrative about his own life story and verbal resume of his personal and professional life's works. He kept it about the band, the people who supported them and their achievements TOGETHER. It was very kind of him to give the shout out to Arnel. Steve Perry is an absolute class act.

It doesn't matter that he didn't sing........ it was enough that he was there. I love you Steve, always !!!

Steve Perry made Journey, one of the best vocal singer off all time

Steve will always be the voice of journey

he was so emotional,awesome front man and singer of journey,good stuff :)

Journey deserved this honor years ago, but I am at least glad if finally happened. I know the band started before Steve Perry, but let's be honest, they never would have had the success or fans that they had if Steve Perry hadn't come along. His voice is like no other. Love and miss him.

Steve your are a beautiful soul, may love and peace and Gods blessing be with you forever on.

He is a Class Act! Alway was , I Love Steve Perry, Fabulous Inside and Out.

Steve was a class act all the way around last night. Bravo!

such a sincere, genuine, beautiful man!!! so deserved this Honor! our new favorite quote " are you fuckin shittin me"!!!! love you Steve always!!! Waiting for your new music!!

This was so emotional to witness live. I had tears in my eyes. What a fantastic night it was.

Very classy, nice to include their current singer.

Steve Perry you' re the voice.

He definitely deserved that standing ovation and I wondered what the other members felt about that. He was very classy in saying all of those nice statements about his ex bandmates and manager and even to Arnel. He OWNED that moment and his acknowledgement to the fans was heartfelt and humble. I didn't get to hear the others acceptance speech but I'm guessing that Steve was the only one who also acknowledged the road crew and everyone else who helped them along the way. I love this amazing man!

Can you hear it??? That's Journey speaking.....he will always be the heart and soul of the Band. Don't get me wrong, the other guys are doing a great job, even Arnel is performing well....BUT: Steve Perry equals Journey! Congrats to you all!!

he always going to b the best singer ever

Wow. He looks great. So good to see him. And yes he is the voice. Congratulations.

Thank you so much for uploading this! Steve is THE BEST Frontman any Rock Band has been fortunate to have.

Hello Steve Perry You sure look good to me tonight. Every time I hear you sing I have to listen with amazement. Your voice is par to none. There is one voice that flies above the rest. That is the magic voice of Steve Perry. You, Steve Perry are Journey. You put Journey in the rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Journey would not be there without your phenomenal voice. Without your tireless love and consistent devotion. You've been gone a long time I know, but I want you to know, you've never not been in my heart. And I love you. Thank you so Very Much.

What a class act Steve. I love that Greg Rollie is there too!

I knew Steve Perry would show up to the Rock and Roll Hall of fame! I knew he wouldn't let his former band mates down but most of all his army of fans! He was there the the Hollywood Walk of Fame and I knew he would be there for The Rock and Roll Induction. This man is an amazing wonderful human being. He is the greatest singer of all time! He deserves this more than any other singer I know. And that is why us fans voted for this band. Congratulations Journey! His speech was speechless and so heartfelt. He is a humble and a good hearted person. His momma raised him with alot of love. And for that we his fans will forever love him!!! Thank you Journey for comming into my life and my heart :>

class . thankful. not bitter ..respectful .genuine ..Steve Perry great voice. , great man ..thanks for the music with and without journey ..

What an incredibly gracious man!! An amazing example of an incredible human being. THANK YOU STEVIE FOR EVERYTHING!!!

To see all the guys together again warms my heart. And for Steve to recognize Arnel was very Cool. I Love Journey always 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

I also knew that Steve would show! For half a second, I thought...maybe not...but I turned my mind around and remembered he appeared at the WOF and loves his fans. He graciously allowed Arnel to sing and has said to Neal that "coffee is way over due."

This was amazing to see whether Perry sang or not. Will always be THE VOICE to me. Thanks for posting this

He looks so good! Aging fine isn't he ~

Even though we didn't have the pleasure of hearing his beautiful voice just once more, I'm so happy he and Journey were finally recognized for all the wonderful memories they gave us! What an awesome ride! #foreversteveperry♡

His presence says it all... his speech acknowledged it all.. he does not have to sing.. he is journey! Arnel respects him so much and he, in return acknowledges him and the journey reached its full circle! It lives on.. the band, the crew, the fans..

Wauw, the moment he stepped forward the hall exploded, the cheering and shouting, standing ovation for the Voice, wonder how the other band members reacted inside and maybe thought what if...... he maybe cannot sing most of the songs as he used to be , but his voice will still be great enough a few noches down . He can train his voice again like Roger Daltrey did some time ago , the vocal chords must be trained again. I sincerely hope for a Réunion that would be awesome .

Of all the bands I've seen and the number is considerable. Journey with Steve Perry as their front man was musically the very best. His voice is so pure it brought tears to my eyes. He even out performed Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison, Roy Orbison and I could go on and on. I was truly hoping he would sing but I can't say as I blame him. He's a class act. Journey will never be the same without him. His voice will go on forever.

Total class. No words.

I❤ watching this video over and over again and again, such a classy man with a beautiful speech thanking everyone who helped him along the way to the top. I 😍 every moment.

I love his speech very much! I was waiting for him for a long time. He has a lot of confidence and charisma as always. Hope to see him again doing some new album or something. Love the hug and recognition he gave to Arnel Pineda too.

Man just to hear him sing one more time would be a wish come true

He definitely did deserve the standing ovation. He was very gracious, and sincere. I can't believe he complimented Neal on his guitar playing. Not to mention, he thanked Herbie. That's how gracious he is. I loved this!!

oh how i remeber seeing Steve Perry sing in Journey, he made the band, I do so miss him singing

...what an absolutely incredible moment...we got to hear Steve for 6:50 minutes...so little time yet he said so much...would love to hear more from Steve...anything...his voice touches so many...back to obscurity he returned...oh how we miss him...

Steve is still very handsome. Wow what a handsome man. Wish he was still with Journey. To me he is Journey!

pure class, a great speech thanking everybody and putting the past problems aside to celebrate a monumental night for the entire band, Steve Perry is a legend

My, people miss Steve Perry. Good thing his (their) songs live on.

He definitely gave the best speech of the night. So full of emotion and passion, just like his performances. Can't wait for the new album. Sure hope he tours.

classy speech from a classy guy! first thing I noticed from the other members was not one of them acknowledged the Voice that put them in the HOF, Cain acknowledged everyone but him! Steve acknowledged and praised each and every one of them. Second he thanked his fans with such heartfelt love and appreciation. Top notch man! Now of course we all want to hear his beautiful voice again and would love to hear it with Neal's guitar but that is never going to happen. As he had told Cain, if you guys replace me there is no going back. Plus he knows this is Arnel's gig now, why would he want to hurt him or the band for that matter. Just think if he sang nobody would want to hear Arnel again and the band would be back where they started trying to get people to like the new Journey. Hats off you you Steve! As much as I wanted to hear you sing....you did the most respectable thing and walked away. I can only imagine your pain for I feel a lot of pain too. Knowing I'll never be going to a Journey concert. I will be hoping and praying for that album you've been promising. I know your a perfectionist but I'm addicted to your voice and need a fix. Please don't make me wait to much longer. I never seen you live and really, really want to see you perform again. I will always be your number one fan. Faithfully a Perry girl forever! Love that you are looking happy and healthy! May the Lord continue to bless you.

Steve Perry is so awesome.. He will forever be the Voice of Journey. Arnel or anyone else can not ever sing like Steve Perry.

steve perry you are a first class act and a first class human being, THANK YOU !! been waiting all year to see this, hell yesssssss

Love Steve Perry! Thanks for being a part of the induction. You guys deserve it...

Killed them with kindness-he knows- they know group was better with Steve Perry

I am Filipina girl and I love Steve Perry. you're my one of favorite slow rock singer. and I love your song which is Foolish Heart.

An AMAZING voice and yet, So Humble..... Very Cool

Neal cannot get over Steve being there and wiped tears away. he still is posting about how great it was to see him and I have a feeling that this time...a real relationship is going to forged.

Whatever his issues are that keep him a recluse, he transcended them. The speech was long, but it was his moment, and he handled it with consummate class, including towards Arnel Pineda who does an excellent job keeping the band alive with his own amazing vocal ability. It's Steve's choice not to share the spotlight, and it's too bad he didn't do something classic and simple with them on this once in a lifetime occasion. Wish him the best, and hope he chooses to do a swan song, or whatever he wants, and not just completely fade away.

Fantastic! Well written speech 👏🏼

steve perry magnifico!

"You are the real heart of R&RHF...!"

Thank you ncisducky4ever you said it all. Great Comment! Long time Journey fan since 7th grade. I am 49 years old today and still love them ! I can''t say enough about how much I love this band. Steve Perry...You rock! Love you forever! God Bless!

I'm 50, In the 70's, I discovered Journey, immediately my favorite band, SP and Journey period till around 2000, I got into Pearl Jam, hard, so I enjoyed life with 2 favorite bands, seeing both in concert, But above all I still favor Steve Perry, after 50+ concerts of various bands and genres, the Journey show in 1986 in OKC was the hands down best music, period, people dancing, people crying, damn, then to see both of my favorite bands inducted on the same night was a pure blessing to me.

Steve is a great man.

Ahhhhhh he is was and always will be the one the only THE VOICE finally love you guys

Beautiful speech !!

I feel Perry did what a Humble Guy should had done...He showed up..with heart felt thoughts..Sing with them yes...would have been great to see...But even Perry has said he is not the Man he was 30 years ago...He had set the Bar so High..no one even comes close...and I truly feel now the 68 year old Perry can't reach it anymore...I would not have gone on stage and took the chance for all the fans to be maybe let down that Perry is not the singer of old...Go out with them remembering you as the great you were...He will release new Music on his terms and in the Range he is comfortable with...at 68..Perry will always be the Great Singer that put Journey on the Map...

He looks great

Wow!My favorite band,my favorite concerts and memories started with Journey and front man Steve Perry!! Congratulations and love to you all! Don't ever stop believing with open arms!!!-Dawn

Journey's Greatest Hits . . .only the 3rd album in history to spend 500 weeks on Billboards album chart . . .that's power.

An amazing speech. Thank you Steve!! 😍❤️🎤🎸

I am so fucking aggravated after all them years Steve didn't do a song with them because if you don't know he Steve Perry, can still hold a note. There was only one other singer like him Freddie mercury.

Top 5 best singers of all time

Still here faithfully... Love u steve!

He's till got the voice! Very strong.

So cool of Steve to shout out to Arnel.

My fav band of all time, tyvm for this! makes my heart happy to see Steve!!!!

Great speech love it. I saw Journey in 79, 80, 81, and 83. They were amazing!

He looks fantastic. Wish he would have sang but maybe someday we will see him return, even if for a few shows.

You did a great job recording this.. thank you very much for sharing!

Top 10 greatest with class! Go Steve!
