Journey just amazes me sometimes as a band, and I've never heard a band out there that has so much power and soul in their songs. I figured I'd post a thread about some of their "Darker" songs with a lot of minor chords. They're my favorite, and I think that's where Perry really shined. I'll just post a few, and leave some for you to post...hope you enjoy these songs as much as I do!

Opened the door reminds me of Kashmir.

"Troubled Child" and "What I Needed."

Great choices Jim. I too love all the songs you selected. Thanks

Patiently and Winds Of March are so fucking boring that I doubt they could crack a Disney soundtrack.

What the hell is One More about anyway?

Hell if i know... It sounds biblical and/or man versus himselfish.

good to hear Winds Of March again. I always love the song and Perrys' voice on it.

Edge of the Blade for me.

Not sure if I'd call it dark, but Daydream is quite different musically. I like it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-euFxTbfSzo

I love minor chords!
isn't the middle haunting notes in Wheel of the Sky in a minor key?

Walking Away from The Edge is a great "dark" Journey tune from Red 13. One of my favorites from the Augeri era and they've never played it live unfortunately, but I can probably understand why.

So true.

But I will go with Walking Away From The Edge, as dark as Journey will ever get.

Just a really moving song, sung beautifully by Steve Augeri.
