I'm a 49 year old man and I am not ashamed to say hearing his voice again brought tears to my eyes.

It’s amazing how he sings Open Arms and any of his songs without any effort at all. His voice just comes out naturally.

I’m 79 years old, n still, in all my years, Steve Perry is the best singer ever!! His voice and delivery is captivating!! I went to a concert to see Journey w my 18 year old daughter, n that was the beginning of my admiration for him!! His CD from back then is played constantly in my car!!! He will live on forever!!! There’s only one Steve Perry!!👍❤️❤️

OMG....My tears of joy hearing this cannot stop flowing. To see Steve bouncing around stage just enjoying himself is just amazing. He is the sound track of my life.

Greatest. Male. Vocalist. of all time. I grew up on all of his music and his voice is the soundtrack of my entire life.

Steve Perry will always be " The Voice" nobody even compares to his vocal capabilities...It's so unique that only Steve Perry can lock that sound down as his own...There will never be a voice so "Awesome" in this lifetime...

If I was in the audience I will be crying like a baby!! Love this man!

At 68 Steve doesn't need to scream and go high notes,he sounds just fine at a low and mellow range. Steve has had a lot of heartache and pain a few years ago(sickness,death). Give him a break for just being up there in public again. Luv u steve

He still sounds amazing after all these years ❤

I'm the same age as Steve. I must admit I was not a Journey fan back in the day. I have fallen in love with him just recently and I have watched many concerts. This was amazing! His voice was amazing! In my 75 years, I've never heard anyone do what Steve does with his voice. I'm so glad that I got to know Steve Perry!

I have seen this before, I don't think they realize that the one he dedicated. this song and loved very much was extremely ill and had died . He sang that song with such powerful emotions an d so beautifully to her, I can't help think she heard him singing it in heaven. wow, Steve Perry did an amazing job, how lucky this audience is to be there and having Him sing to them. Steve Perry still the best singer ever!!!

This man is a living legend! One of, if not the best, most versatile singers in the world! His voice was put through an ungodly amount of stress from years of touring (luckily he had the will power of self-preservation, or he may not be here today), is damn-near 70 years old AND can still serve that magical voice! I've loved his musical abilities for 2/3 of my life and, believe me, I'd do anything within my means to go see him sing today. Hard as it may be to accept, 30+ years have passed since he hit those "reach for the heavens" high notes. I don't expect it from him and neither should anyone else, for if Steve Perry can't match Steve Perry nobody can.

I think he sounds awesome. Haters, just shut the hell up! He is one of a kind and still has a great range and tone to his voice. Please release a new recording Steve!

I imagine everyone in that audience that night silently praying "don't go away again" 😢😢😢

Still the best and sexiest male voice EVER in my opinion. Love you SP.

They absolutely know that they are watching history. That is why they are paying full attention and standing up OUT of their seats and not being DISTRACTED by screaming and making noise. They definitely not only applauded but gave him a STANDING OVATION throughout the performance. And I might add...he did almost an entire set.

TO STEVE PERRY: I hope you read this. You brought tears to my eyes, a lump in my throat and goose bumps on my arms watching you perform again.I'm 61 years old and don't have much time left on the earth. I am only one human being on this planet that has been fortunate enough to be born in the right time and era, to actually grow and follow, or in better words; journey with you and "JOURNEY." You have no idea what an inspiration and difference you have made in my life. I started drumming when I was 5. Started singing lessons in Jr. High.My goal was to be a rock & roll drummer. There was no era better than the 80's. I've followed your concerts every where I could possibly be. Anybody in this town of Twin Falls knows how dedicated I am to your music. My license plates even say Journey. I have emphysema now,can't sing anymore. Every year bands from all over play at a festival here.One band dedicated a "JOURNEY" song TO ME when they found out. I can drum to ALL or your songs( lick per lick), and have performed many on stage also. I know all the lyrics to your music. I love to sing, but wasn't stupid enough to think I could ever pass my voice off as you.Fact is NOBODY can,many try and come close but no cigar. At least they keep the band "JOURNEY" touring so many others can still enjoy and remember the wonderful songs written.When one persons music can reach another in such a way, it is truly A GIFT. Please Steve; I'm sure you've thought about not performing again.What ever the reason being, voice, age, time, critics,etc.Piss on it. We are all human, it's a part of growing old.Take it from me. When music is your whole life and your FORCED to stop by something physically. It sucks. So be reminded that a 61 year old dying man with emphysema once asked you from the bottom of his heart: WOULD YOU TO PLEASE PLAY FOR ME ONE LAST TIME STEVE ? hope your response would be, "AS LONG IS THERE IS ONE PERSON OUT THERE THAT WANTS TO SEE ME PERFORM I WILL" Thank You !

So happy he's back, he's been so very missed. No one can evoke emotions when they sing like Steve can. Traces is a broken heart exposed and it's beautiful in all it's sorrow. 💜

I love Steve Perry. Best vocalist ever.

Does that crowd even realize how big of a deal this is watching him perform? It doesnt seem like it. This is incredible to hear him sing after basically disappearing from music for so long

He's still got that precise vocal control, range, and vibrato! :D Amazing for a singer in his late 60's! :D

I'm sitting here typing through tears.... it is SUCH a JOY to hear this precious man sing once again! I'll bet this living legend doesn't even know how much he has been sorely missed. No one ...I mean NO one does Steve Perry better than... Steve Perry. God Bless you Stevie...come on back, I promise you'll be met with Open Arms xoxo

This man would pack every venue with faithful fans who, like me, would crawl across hot coals on their knees even if it was to hear him sing the alphabet, backwards and in Portuguese...because he is so crazy talented! It's not just that we love his voice, we love how hearing it makes our hearts love deeper and our sorrows feel sweeter...Seeing him last night at the HOF induction made me smile...I wish him joy and peace whether he sings another note publicly or not. God bless Steve!💜

I've been watching Steve Perry perform with the eel,s in different states. And his voice keep,s getting better and better. Stronger and stronger after each show. His voice will never leave him. He has a gift for god. He,s been touched by his hands. So he can always sing I believe in his talent. Keep on singing Steve your fans love you. 2020 in Cleveland Ohio . Forever his fan.

Not only can he sing he can tell a story like no one! Just great stuff Steve we miss you!!

His confidence in himself made so much difference. Being able to be the frontman to an audience who adorned him and no contention in the band , has brought him back to us. He loves being a frontman to, and we love seeing him!

Steve talks from the heart and sings from the soul..the note he hits at the end of lovin touchin is simply amazing...can't wait for it new solo album in 2017...it's always a good day when you hear " the voice "...

Just like the old days, only thing missing is that beautiful long hair, wish he had never cut it off. He's incredible ...still got it.

Wtf is everybody talking he sounds amazing!

Would give my last pennies to see him sing live again .

He's still got that golden voice.

steve is the man. one of the best frontmans of all time

And that kids is a real singer!

beautiful voice. still got it. 😀😃

He's still definitely got the pipes!

The longer he stays on stage, the more comfortable he gets. .. miss him, miss Journey.

Am so jealous these people got a surprise of a lifetime to enjoy seeing Steve Perry perform again

No one is good as the original did..love you always steve..perry girl here❤️

He is so comfortable with a microphone back in his hands! I don't care what notes he hits...as long as I can hear him S I N G!!!!

A Beautiful man, a beautiful voice... Just had to watch it again...

I can watch this over and over!!! He sounds fantastic!! This crowd is just not rowdy enough for me! I would have lost my voice screaming and waving the whole time...his voice still melts my heart!

He’s so damn talented. He sounds very good here, especially considering his age. Would love to see him do some solo shows before he totally retires.

you haters were never SP fans....how can you say he lost it!! He sounds fantastic!!!! still so soulful. Faithfully a Perry girl!!!

What makes this band great in the presence of greatness is them putting the music above their egos.

I ❤️ Steve Perry! His song...When you love a woman , was played as I walked down the aisle at my wedding ❤️ I LOVE U STEVE PERRY!!! 😘

I love his voice and his personality so much. I could watch and listen to him every day

Steve Perry is the king of the golden voice 😇😇

Steve in his prime (and I still love the way he sounds now) however in his prime he was the best male singer in history of song - for range, pitch, tone, and emotion. Freddy was also incredible, however, the other members of queen harmonized with Freddie to get that great distinctive queen sound, both great legends of music. Steve's on the end of "why can't this night go on forever", says it all just listen...at 68 he is aging really good as well. God bless him, can;t wait to hear the new stuff.

OMG Steve Perry and Jimmy Barnes. OMFG i adore perry no matter his age. and barnsey. well enough said

Nobody sings like this man. Living legend

If I didn't know anything about SP and was just watching to enjoy the sight and sounds...I would think he is only 35 at the most...

Still got it going on. Still sexy, still one of the best voices ever!! Gotta love Steve Perry!

This morning, as I lie in my bed grinning ear to ear, I am most thankful for this little thing called KZfaq. And yes; I am 100% envious of every soul in that theatre. Lucky dogs!

I love listening to him sing, He will always be the VOICE, he did it so perfectly!!! just can not get enough of your singing Steve Perry, I will always want to hear more and more from you!! You are the best!!!

Best pure male singer of all time. Incredible range and control.

Good God is this guy an AMAZING singer. 67 yrs old and he can belt like that! Wow! Incredible singer. Come to Palm Beach Fl Steve...

I listen to this quite often and just can't get enough of him!!! listen to them pipes still!!! holy crap he sounds great!! what a humble legend!!!!

Brought tears to my eyes! THE VOICE!

Love Steve Perry he is the best of Journey,

Really... this guy can sing the phone book... Great Steve Perry!

Awesome as always Steve! Expected nothing less even after all these years. Your voice sounded as beautiful and in shape as it ever was. One of the best entertainers and showmen in the business then and now. Always a professional. Truly a golden voice like yours is a gift from God! Never "hide your light under a bushel" let it shine as you did this night. Love you

The rumors that he can't sing anymore are completely overblown, his voice is awesome!

I wonder if the younger people or if anyone in this audience even realizes what an amazing opportunity it was to have Mr. Steve Perry bless them with his amazing appearance let alone his amazing, angelic one-of-a kind voice! They were so fortunate to hear him sing again. I'd give anything even to hear his voice on the phone!!! Please call me Steve! I love you yesterday, today and forever and eternity! God bless you!

Steve is timeless, simply timeless.

Wow! Steve you are still and always will be the best. THAT VOICE!

I was at this show! I loved Journey as a kid and I love the Eels as an adult, so this was an unbelievable thrill. Kudos to E and Eels for bringing Steve Perry back onstage. It was truly a privilege to be in that audience. Thank you for posting this brilliant video.

Steve Perry has still got it I like Arnel too but Steve is Journey...

Pretty amazing for a man out of vocal shape can hit those very difficult notes. We miss you Steve. You touched so many lives. Thank you!

He is so amazing, tears are falling bigtime. We miss you Steve Perry !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

he can still put so much into a song. his love is smiling from above down on him. Mr. Perry we miss you

I'm crying. I love this man so much.

This is like living in the moment all over again . His voice just memorizes you and becomes a part of you. He was a crush of mine like any female back in the eighties. The voice that is in my head.Love you Steve

He still got it

I wanna thank the guy recording this so we can watch it

the man .. the voice.. the legend!!.. He is so awesome, no voice will ever replace him. He will always be the lead singer of the most greatest 80's band Journey!. If he would return that would be awesome. The world loves him and that voice. God Bless him in his endeavors as he decides what to do, please know he would be very welcomed with "open arms" ..

still the best!

Wow...just watched that and he wld make Million$...of people happy by going on tour. Love the virtuosity of Neil Schon, but he is the reason I'm goin. I don't care how he sounds, it's good enuf for me just to see that goofy dance/strut and the soulful sway again. Plus, he's saved his voice for 20 years while on sabbatical! Do it bro...

Still got it!!!Steve perry marvellous as always.....those audience are soooooo lucky to see him sing again,very very lucky

He's so awesome.. I love Steve Perry and would do anything to meet him...

The incomparable Steve Perry. I think it's wonderful he made the decision to perform again. Doesn't sound like he has the register that he used to in this video, but no one at 65 sounds the same that they did 30-40 years ago. Or maybe just needs practice. He still has a beautiful voice! A voice that millions of his fans would surely to pay to still see. Hope he does some new music. His real fans don't care about octaves.

He still has that golden voice ❤️❤️❤️

ahhh! how LUCKY this crowd! how lucky to hear and see this guy in person. ooohhhh!!! how many are so desperate to grab a chance like this! i love this voice! it doesnt matter how old he is, he owns that VOICE! that vvvoooiiiiccccceeeee! really, lucky audience. how precious this moment is!

Steve Please Come back to us!!! We love you and miss you so much!!! I have been listening to you for 35 years. You are a big, important part to the soundtrack to my life. Please sing at the Rock Induction in April!

Pure Magic!!! That Voice is just incredible!

For anyone watching this on August 2018, Just to let you know that Steve Perry just made a Twitter, Facebook and Instagram account and just announced his long awaited 3rd Album ''Traces'', its set to be released on October 5th. Long Live The Voice.

That was fun to watch. Steve really looked like he was having a good time. Who cares if his voice doesn't sound like it did 20-something years ago. Kudos to him for getting out there again.

Steve Perry is unlike ANY man of any Band thru history! Truly a genuine, caring, gracious, humble amazing Man!!

Steve Perry has an awesome tone to his voice here. Matured sure, but crazy expressive. I really hope he sings at the R&R HoF show. Who cares if the keys need to be changed to fit the range? I'd listen to a Perry tour all day long.

Wow...just wow. I'm so glad I grew up knowing the greatness that is Steve Perry...this shit proves why...how, when, where and What...LEGEND

I keep coming back to this video! No one sounds this good live he is THE VOICE😎

I just love to hear Steve Perry sing. He is one of my favorite vocalist in the world. He can change your whole mood with just his songs. Thanks Steve.

Whoever this guy is he has talent. He could be a rock star or something.

His voice give me life, I really love him so much♥😢

Oh my God..what a voice..Every time I listen to this tears come to my eyes..That’s song, called I will never be the same, he has a magnitude of talent.. still the same SP.

I miss you Stevie!! Steve motherfucken Perry!!!! the best Voice ever!

I can hardly wait until his new solo cd is released!

Steve Perry Is Back

Outstanding! You don't need Journey Steve... They need you! What a great showman. Can still raise the crowd up to a higher plane. Best wishes in whatever you do (but please keep singing!!!)

I'm thinkin' that E has got to be standing there goin' "I am standing on stage and singing with freakin' Steve Perry! I am standing on stage and singing with freakin' Steve Perry! I am standing on stage and singing with freakin' Steve Perry!" What an awesome thing to experience as a musician.
