MR

I know this has probably been discussed before but who cares!
Hearing boots of the guys doing some rare stuff at recent soundchecks has had me thinking a lot about what older Journey material I would LOVE to hear Jeff take a stab at.
With that said, here is a small sampling of some of the tunes "I" would love to hear Jeff sing the next time the guys roll into my town; not ALL of them but any combo of 4-5 of them:

The Party's Over
Precious Time
Sweet & Simple
Lovin' you is Easy
Still They Ride
Troubled Child
Send Her My Love
Rubicon
DIXIE-FUCKIN-HIGHWAY
Message of Love
Liberty
Why Can't this Night
And surprisingly...
Easy to Fall and Higher Place

And Hell, Bring back "Suzanne" for Deeno to sing! He tore that song up and made it likeable again

Any thoughts???

Troubled Child is #1 on my list 'cause it's never (I don't think) been done live. I think JSS could rock the hell outta that one.

would love to hear sweet & simple... especially since jss "dropped the gantlet" not too long ago!

"it's whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaat i like to do!"

that's a pretty high note there... can jss do it? };C))

um------ whats new pussycat

green green grass of home

i would love to see him do these songs i know he could make em rockers and dont go by the boots they just dont do justice you must go to the show


im so ready for this one got my
im so psyched!!

Okay...in London on March 14th 2007...can't wait!....I'd love to hear at least some of these:


1) Troubled Child
2) Rubicon
3) Precious Time
4) Daydream
5) Send Her My Love
6) Girl Can't Help It
7) I'll Be Alright Without You
Happy To Give
9) Good Morning Girl
10) Patiently
11) Why Can't This Night Go On Forever
12) Trial By Fire
13) Liberty
14) Suzanne
15) After The Fall
16) Raised On Radio
17) When You Love A Woman
18) Too Late


Also - I'd love to hear them open with Majestic - and maybe even do a version of JSS/Schon's "Believe In Me"....and by March next year maybe at least two new songs as well so the set isn't entirely backward-looking.

stay awhile and message of love

True dat. He smokes on all of the Frontiers tunes I heard him do.

I would dearly LOVE to hear the guys open with "Majestic/Too Late" and do it LIVE, not that taped BS they used in the early 80s.

LMAO

Message Of Love
Higher Place
Girl Can't Help It
After The Fall
I'll Be Alright w/o You
Send Her My Love

It's Swallow THAT Load. We were playing that in the car and it's very catchy.

Without a doubt TROUBLED CHILD, tis my fave.
I'm with Liam on DIXIE HIGHWAY as well.

Hell if I could manage to get my ars to a concert
I would be happy to see him sing happy birthday

Figured I change that to my as in their's since they seem to be too cocky.

Of what I don't think they've covered w/ Jeff yet:

La Raza
Good Morning, Girl
I'm Cryin' (f'ing 'postrophes. Hate 'em in song names) if only only to hear the real bluesman in Schon breathe
Pos Touch
Once You Love Somebody
1 More
Can't Tame The Lion
Higher Place
The Time
The Place In Your Heart
Out Of Harm's Way

Pretty much agree with your list there Matt........and would definately like to hear "Believe in Me" also. But I would take "Precious Time", "Good Morning Girl" and "Trial by Fire" off and replace with "Dixie Highway", "Message of Love" and "Where were you".

Open Arms
Lay it Down
Where Were You
Mother Father
Higher Place
Faithfully
Be Good To Yourself
Only The Young

Yes - "Message of Love" would be a good one. I forget about that. Also - I've seen Journey do "Where Were You" in the UK earlier this year so it can't be included on my 'wish they could play that one' list. And I've never liked "Dixie Highway"!

How about Deen doing "A Better Life"? I'm sure we agree on that one.....

And...they'll never ever play it in a million years and no-one seems to like it anyway...but I'd also vote for "It's Just The Rain".

I have to disagree with the "Message of Love" requests. It fell flat when they tried it as the opener on the Arrival tour...and the general mass felt it was a bland song when released to radio in '96. I personally skip over it nearly everytime.

Hehe...I've always liked Dixie Highway, love the energy Perry gave it (ya, sexy lyrics and all loved it on the Departure dvd boots and even on the FTLSM boots).....would love to see JSS powering that one up! And ok, I've seen Deen singing Where were you, it was great.......taking that one back and giving it to Deen. Also, I couldn't agree more with ya on "A Better Life!" And I think JSS has the right tone/rasp to do "It's just the rain" but you're right that one will never see the light of day in a setlist.

Lots of good lists... I would like to hear Trial by Fire, Rubicon, Lay it Down - just to name a few...

Okay, I know tat Jeff has sang some of these live, but I haven't had the opportunity to see Journey with JSS yet...so here is what I would love to hear from Jeff:

1. Edge of the Blade
2. Seperate Ways (cuz I have seen him sing this on youtube.com)
3. The Time
4. Trouble Child
5. Escape
6. Mother Father
7. Message of Love
8. When You Love A Woman
9. Higher Place
10. With A Tear or Into Your Arms (Cuz I have always wanted to hear vocals with those songs)
11. Could've Been You
12. Sweet and Simple
13. I Can See It In Your Eyes
14. Only Solutions
15. Too Late

Deb, probably missed it in the thread somewhere, but what was the year on this? Steve sounds very young.

Would love to hear :
PARTY'S OVER
TOO LATE
DO YOU RECALL
DIXIE HIGHWAY
RUBICON
REMEMBER ME
JUST THE SAME WAY (duet w. Deen)
and I think the SOul Sirkus PURPLE RAIN/FAITHFULLY medley would be cool!
