Greatest Hits v3?

Postby JourneyFanJeff » Fri Mar 02, 2012 2:47 pm

Hey all,
My name is Jeff and I'm new to the forums, and just first off, I have to say what a great website this is. This website is literally a gem on the internet for a guy like me, so I just wanted to say thank you Andrew and anyone else who made this possible! Second of all, I figured I'd introduce myself by starting a topic. Hopefully this topic wasn't covered already...

So with the recent release of Greatest Hits Volume 2, although it is a great compilation of great Journey songs, I was kind of disappointed that no Post-Perry material was included. Now, I know that Sony doesn't have the rights to anything after Arrival, but I would have figured that they include some songs off of Arrival. I mean, what a great record! Anyway, I was curious to know, hypothetically, what you all think would be a good tracklist if a Post-Perry Journey Greatest Hits record ever came out. I probably wouldn't include more than 16 songs. Here is my opinion:

1. Remember Me
2. Higher Place
3. All the Way
4. Signs of Life
5. World Gone Wild
6. With Your Love
7. I Got A Reason
8. Faith in the Heartland (Augeri)
9. The Place in Your Heart (Pineda)
10. Never Walk Away
11. After All These Years
12. Turn Down the World Tonight
13. City of Hope
14. Anything is Possible
15. Edge of the Moment
16. Resonate
Journey on, Keep the faith alive, and Don't Stop Believin'!

I like the idea, Jeff and welcome. If I had one song I would add to your GH3, it would be Chain Of Love. I love that song.

Maybe only one Dean, but he would want us to have fun and keep on trucking on. I think we just have to be ourselves and keep his antics close to our hearts.

The only one that caught my attention was "Higher Place" and that was because it got some radio play at the time. I knew it was Journey right away as I thought that Augeri had a bit of the Perry sound at the time.

With GH2 having pretty low sales and not really making an impact on the catalog albums chart, i dont see anymore GH compilations being released. Essential Journey is still outselling GH2 in terms of weekly sales.

Any GH set post Perry would likely not be supported at all by Sony or another label since Perry wasn't involved. I think the only reason the other GH sets have seen the light of day is because Sony and Perry still have a good working relationship.

The low sales for GH2 at last clarifies Journey's situation: the masses don't want to hear anything beyond the Dirty Dozen, and that includes other Perry-era cuts.
So much for the idea that the disinterest extends only to new!Journey.

I was going to mention this earlier, but I realized I did not know it
for a fact. I know nothing about these era's except that I love Arrival...
some of those songs should've been hits!!

True, and you have to remember too, Journey already basically has a greatest hits 1 and 2=Essential Journey.
