What an interesting vibe and presentation for that video. It's like what I'd expect a Tony Bennett (or someone like that) arrangement to look like, lol. Motley assortment of musicians too. Anyway, I don't think the song could possibly have lived up to the brief but intense hype of those first few posts, but yeah, it's a nice tune. Something worth checking out, though definitely not the best thing I've personally heard this year. ;)

But nice.

Sounds great. Great vibe. I'd like another  'Street Talk ' style of album from him, that soulful style suits his voice perfectly. Bare in mind he is nearly 70 years old, so another Journey sounding,  rockier album is probably doubtful at this stage in his career. There are plenty of other bands doing that in this genre anyways. Welcome back Steve. Look forward to hearing the rest of it.

Nice tune, well produced and Steve sounds pretty good.  If I'm being honest it doesn't really do much for my personal tastes though and isn't something I'll be buying.

It's nice to see him back making music though and I'm sure it will appeal to many.

I think it's a marvellous tune. Could have been lifted straight off Street Talk. Becomes even more appealing after several listens.

Really like the lyrics, vibe.

great example of AOR perfectly executed by the master.

I see a couple comments here that are kind of negative ;) LOL. Were probably safe doing that here. But OMG dont you freaking dare even hint at something close to criticism on his Facebook page. :eek:  Before the new song was even posted anywhere Perry posted this and I responded "after all these years weve been waiting and thats all your going to say". LOL  And the women there almost ripped me a new one. Even sent me message's on Facebook messenger. But I should have expected nothing less from groupies. LOLimage.thumb.png.4ea9d92fa5bc470f0ff9ff44d25fbe72.png  I like the song, its a decent tune. But of course it doesnt have the power behind it like when he was with Journey. I'll probably end up buying it. Maybe. ;) LOL

well it was just a PR build up I guess.

He's said quite a bit really quickly since ;)

At the end of the day you can't compare this to Journey. It's Perry solo which has always been lighter, but still classy and well written

This is a nice enough tune but...to be brutally frank...would be a throwaway track with any other name attached to it.  Don't get me wrong - I'm super stoked to hear a new Steve Perry solo album but this track doesn't really set my ears on fire.

Never thought I would type that topic title.

So happy :)

Well, how could you have ever guessed the album title?

Loving the new track but according to Andrew’s pre-review over at Melodic Rock.com is that 8 of the 10 new tracks are ballads...sounds like a Michael Bolton type of release. ??

I can see a 1/2 and 1/2 split because it is Perry but only 1 rocker other than No Erasin’ has really made my excitement diminish.

I pretty much assumed it would mostly ballads.

    • Doubtful. Most fans will favour Slippery and New Jersey. Hell, for many years 7800 was considered a weak album by many. The first and second album would only be chosen by the absolute die hards.
    • Roll On Down the Highway-BTO
    • I feel like the fans voting would result in more songs from the first two albums.
    • Looks like a pretty nice compilation to me. That said, this sort of stuff doesn't interest me at all anymore.  There was probably a time it would've but now it's just too easy to make your own playlists in spotify to bother.  
    • Thankfully newer songs are at a minimum, but I really can't see fans voting for stuff from the new album even if they were the two best songs on that album
    • Final track listing revealed. Time to see if it is a genuine vote or the band/label putting in shit from the newer albums DISC 1 1 Livin' On A Prayer リヴィン・オン・ア・プレイヤー 2 It's My Life イッツ・マイ・ライフ 3 Born To Be My Baby ボーン・トゥ・ビー・マイ・ベイビー 4 These Days ジーズ・デイズ 5 In These Arms イン・ジーズ・アームズ 6 Always オールウェイズ 7 Have a Nice Day ハヴ・ア・ナイス・デイ 8 Runaway 夜明けのランナウェイ 9 You Give Love a Bad Name 禁じられた愛 10 I'll Be There for You アイル・ビー・ゼア・フォー・ユー 11 Keep The Faith キープ・ザ・フェイス 12 Bed Of Roses ベッド・オブ・ローゼズ 13 Bad Medicine バッド・メディシン 14 Wanted Dead or Alive ウォンテッド・デッド・オア・アライヴ 15 Blood on Blood ブラッド・オン・ブラッド 16 Legendary レジェンダリー DISC 2 1 Never Say Goodbye ネヴァー・セイ・グッドバイ 2 Someday I'll Be Saturday Night サムデイ・アイル・ビー・サタデイ・ナイト 3 She Don't Know Me シー・ドント・ノウ・ミー 4 Lay Your Hands On Me レイ・ユア・ハンズ・オン・ミー 5 Dry County ドライ・カウンティ 6 This Ain' t A Love Song ディス・エイント・ア・ラヴ・ソング 7 Wild Is the Wind ワイルド・イズ・ザ・ウィンド 8 Tokyo Road TOKYOロード 9 Everyday エヴリデイ 10 I Believe アイ・ビリーヴ 11 I'd Die for You アイド・ダイ・フォー・ユー 12 Living Proof リヴィング・プルーフ 13 Bounce バウンス 14 We Weren't Born To Follow ウィー・ワーント・ボーン・トゥ・フォロー 15 Something for the Pain サムシング・フォー・ザ・ペイン 16 One Wild Night ワン・ワイルド・ナイト DISC 3 1 Raise Your Hands レイズ・ユア・ハンズ 2 Living in Sin リヴィング・イン・シン 3 Thank You for Loving Me サンキュー 4 Last Man Standing ラスト・マン・スタンディング 5 Undivided アンディヴァイデッド 6 Lost Highway ロスト・ハイウェイ 7 Wild In The Streets ワイルド・イン・ザ・ストリーツ 8 Just Older ジャスト・オールダー 9 Because We Can ビコーズ・ウィー・キャン 10 This House Is Not For Sale ディス・ハウス・イズ・ノット・フォー・セール 11 Who Says You Can't Go Home フー・セズ・ユー・キャント・ゴー・ホーム 12 Captain Crash & The Beauty Queen From Mars キャプテン・クラッシュ&ザ・ビューティー・クイーン・フロム・マーズ 13 Only Lonely オンリー・ロンリー 14 I Am アイ・アム 15 Burning For Love バーニング・フォー・ラヴ 16 Hey God ヘイ・ゴッド 17 Stick To Your Guns スティック・トゥ・ユア・ガンズ 18 Any Other Day
