  1. 1. Do you like Steve Perry's voice?



Recommended Posts

Steve Perry, a vocalist of a band Journey is widely considered as one of the best rock vocalists. But somehow I couldn't get into his voice, I just don't like it and I always find his singing irritating. I enjoy much more Geddy Lee's vocals than Perry's. Maybe my opinion is unpopular, but so it is.

 

What are your opinions?

I must admit AOR is not a good kind of rock music! It was always something much closer to POP-ROCK than HARD ROCK. And overplaying of certain songs on radio stations is one of main characteristics of AOR.

 

that's cool dude. i love AOR.

 

i just love it's melodic sense......but i totally get it's not for everybody, lol

He's a great singer. Amazing range. Emotive.

 

But I don't like his voice.

 

But it's a great voice I just don't like his tone.

AOR Bands may have the best melodic sense around. or very close anyway.

"You make me fee-EE-eel...

Like I wanna di-ie

Just when...

You said we'd try-y-y

Lovin', TOUCHin', squee-eezin'

Each o-othe-er"

 

One of the best. :)

Yeah I feel

The same about Bobby Kimball.

 

Snap.

 

Both have qualities I admire. Toto fortunately never focused on just one singer (Tambu aside). And I wouldn't touch a Kimball solo album.

Well....yeah.

 

I also like Neil Peart as a drummer.

Next up, "Do you like Eddie Van Halen's guitar work?:

 

And then, "Ever been in a Turkish prison"?

Yeah but the album feels a lot like a Lukather solo album. Its my second favourite Toto album so I have no issue with that haha

 

Or third...Isolation has gone way up for me

Most of the time, yeah. Used to hate it, though...back when it was cool to hate Journey.

 

"Faithfully" gets me every time.

 

I remember it being so very cool to dislike Journey. It was okay to like 'Wheel', but nothing romantic, ever.

 

Even so, I liked his voice and frankly I liked many of their hits. I don't know anything other than the hits, so I can't fairly comment on Journey. But Perry's voice? Most excellent.
