I think they did a great job with this version. It looks like Steve produced it. The arrangement, while very chill, still sounds fresh to me and has a strong emotional quality. I liked Steve's voice in it. Interestingly (God help me, yes I checked it sitting at my piano in my home recording studio) this version of the song is only 1/2 step down from the original Journey version and the same key that Steve sang during his For The Love of Strange Medicine Tour. I really liked hearing his voice up in that register. And his background vocals were oh so smooth and sweet.
I did not see this coming, but I'm glad it came. What a treat!
Hope all of you are enjoying it to.
I suspect a new Steve Perry album for Dark Horse Records is coming this year. It feels like its time. Can't wait...
