Let's Take a Journey Song

Steve Perry's "Lights"


"Lights" is a song that was written by Steve Perry and Neal Schon for the band Journey theorganictravel.com. It was released in 1978. It's a beautiful and uplifting song that captures the essence of the summer and the beauty of the outdoors. It was one of the band's most popular songs, and it's a classic that has endured since then.


Before joining Journey, Perry wrote a song called "Lights" for the group. This song quickly rose to the top of the group's songwriting portfolio, and soon became a fan favorite. The song is a love letter to the Bay Area. If you live in San Francisco, you may have heard Perry performing it at a sporting event or in a stadium.


The song is one of Journey's best-known songs, and it's one of the band's biggest hits. The band changed the song's lyrics and arrangement after Perry joined the group. The song was originally written by Robert Fleischman, but Perry's voice lent a different feel to the track.


A classic song written by a legendary singer, "Lights" is the perfect summer song. Steve Perry has a strong connection to the Bay Area and was present during the 2010 World Series. The song was released as a single and reached the Billboard Hot 100 in 1978. Since then, it's become Journey's best known song. It's regularly played at baseball games, and the Oakland A's after-game fireworks are popular places to hear it.

Jonathan Cain's "Raised On Radio"


One of Jonathan Cain's more experimental albums is "Raised on Radio." While the title may suggest that the album is about a rock band, the album isn't all about rock music. It's also about the power of love and the importance of family. The album opens with "Together We Run," a power ballad reminiscent of "America's Biggest Hit."


Cain, who is also a member of the rock band Journey, was born in Chicago, Illinois. He began playing music as a teenager and eventually joined the band, which included lead singer John Waite. When Waite's band broke up in 1980, Cain accepted a role in Journey as the band's keyboard player. He also contributed to the band's songwriting. In 1987, he joined the band Bad English, but eventually returned to Journey. Cain has been touring with Journey ever since.


The album features three songs that have become the band's signature sound. "Girl Can't Help It" is a particularly memorable track with its classic rock vibe and powerful piano riff. "Be Good to Yourself" is another upbeat track, with the band's trademark high-pitched melodies.


"Raised on Radio" is Journey's tenth studio album. While it might not be as adventurous as its predecessors, the album has become a classic in the rock world. Its name was originally Freedom. However, it was changed to "Raised on Radio" by Steve Perry in 1986. The new title is not just a recycled moniker, but rather a bold declaration that the band's sound is as broad and varied as the band's fans want it to be.

Jonathan Cain's "Girl Can't Help It"


Jonathan Cain wrote the song "Girl Can't Help it" for the Journey album "Raised on Radio." The song made the Billboard Hot 100 chart and reached the Top 40. It was co-written by Journey guitarist Neal Schon and singer Jonathan Cain.

Steve Perry's "Infinity"


Journey's first album with Steve Perry was "Infinity," released in January 1978 on Columbia Records. It was also the band's final album with Aynsley Dunbar. The album was a crossover hit, featuring Perry's wistful and soulful vocals and the band's signature sound.


Steve Perry is an amazing vocalist. Unfortunately, he was given a lot of crap to sing. While Journey's Infinity album has several strong tracks, many of the tracks are weak. Among these are the radio standard "Feeling That Way/Anytime," the song "Patiently," "La Do Da," and "Somethin' to Hide."


Perry is also an excellent songwriter. He and Neal Schon wrote "Patiently," about being away from home. Other hits from "Infinity" include "Lights," "Wheel in the Sky," and "Feeling That Way." While some critics have characterized Journey's music as overly sappy pop, the band's debut album is one of their most powerful and influential.
