OT: New Steve Perry Music
Not sure if anyone noticed but Steve Perry just posted his first new song in over 20 years! Between Red Wings games and TV syncs, I feel like I've heard this guy's voice almost every day since he was actually in Journey.

He still sounds pretty good but that song is painfully terrible.
August 15th, 2018 at 3:52 AM ^
Song is horrible. And his pipes aren't quite what they used to be. I'm going to go listen to some Oh Sherrie now.

My wife an I recently saw a Journey cover band ("Departure") at a local venue north of Atlanta. Not only did the singer sound like Steve Perry, he worked the crowd in the same way. We were on the lawn about 30 yards from the stage and the area around us was packed with middle aged moms singing their lungs out. Good times.

Local band here in the tri-cities (Bay City, Saginaw, Midland) name 'The Rock Show' is a very good journey tribute band. Lead singer does Perry very well.

I've seen Journey a number of times with new singer Arnell and they are still very good. My wife is a Filipino and we have to see them every time they come around because Arnell is from her area of the Philippines. Crazy that they found him on a youtube video...

Arnel Pineda is great. And because he's young, he brings a lot of energy to the live shows, jumping around while the old guys strum their guitars.

Except he can’t hit the high notes. Saw them once and it was a terrible disappointment.
August 15th, 2018 at 2:16 AM ^
Please tell me Steve Perry recorded his new music in South Detroit...
August 15th, 2018 at 2:27 AM ^
Please tell me you didn’t stop beleivin’ . . .
August 15th, 2018 at 5:53 AM ^
I thought the lyrics were "Don't stop....bleedin' "

Misogyny

Guess he couldn't quite make it through retirement with his savings. I imagine he makes a decent amount from royalties, but he's probably accustomed to a fairly pricey lifestyle. Must be nice to make 7 figures putting out some junk like this.
August 15th, 2018 at 5:21 AM ^
I couldn’t make it through the entire song. The picture I couldn’t get out of my head was of this song playing in a montage breakup scene of a low budget Mystery Science Theater 3000 movie.
August 15th, 2018 at 4:50 PM ^
Upvote if I could. Missing me some Joel and the robots now.
August 15th, 2018 at 7:10 AM ^
I can't wait for the season to begin.

There is no erasing that song from my memory. Just terrible.
August 15th, 2018 at 7:52 AM ^
I remember his interview pieces in Journey’s Behind the Music. The dude could barely talk, and that was 15 or so years ago!
August 15th, 2018 at 8:16 AM ^
YOU SHOULD’VE BEEN GOOOOONE
August 15th, 2018 at 9:25 AM ^
No Erasin this song from my memory....woof
I can understand why he disappeared from public singing for so long, his pipes are definitely not what they were, and those lyrics were brutal. This was as bad as watching David Lee Roth doing a lounge lizard version of just a gigolo on Letterman after his solo career tanked.
August 15th, 2018 at 10:21 AM ^
I'd like to say I listened, but I didn't.
August 15th, 2018 at 10:21 AM ^
After reading the comments, I am tempted to not listen to that song, and hopefully get some better future new material from Steve Perry.
In the meantime, I am going to crank up Journey's "Stone In Love" - a closet classic from the 80s and one of the most underrated rock songs ever.
August 15th, 2018 at 10:26 AM ^
It's not going uphill from here man. Dude is in his twilight years now.
August 15th, 2018 at 10:35 AM ^
Leave Steve alone, it's not bad.
August 15th, 2018 at 11:26 AM ^
I would love to upvote this and award onto you many points, but alas.
Instead I say "thank you", though it is, still, 'pointless'.
August 15th, 2018 at 12:53 PM ^
Focus on the good times. Try to remember the times that were good. . . . And I’ll go ahead and order onion rings for the board. They're the best in the state as far as I'm concerned.
August 15th, 2018 at 6:45 PM ^
Not interested unless Arnel Pineda is doing the vocals.
