Former JOURNEY Singer STEVE PERRY At Game 5 Of NLCS (Video)
October 28, 2010Former JOURNEY singer Steve Perry was spotted singing along to the band's classic song "Don't Stop Believin'" when it started booming over the soundsystem during Game 5 of the National League Championship Series in San Francisco on Thursday, October 21. Watch video footage of his appearance below.
In other news, Perry did a phone interview with the San Francisco radio station KNBR Wednesday morning (October 27). You can now listen to the chat using the audio player below.
In a July 2009 interview with CBC's "Q" cultural affairs show, Perry said he always thought "Don't Stop Believing" — which is the top-selling digital download of a track not originally released in this century, according to Nielsen SoundScan, having sold more than 2.8 million units since 2003 — had potential as a single. It was always a hit with live audiences, though it didn't get great radio play at the time it was issued, he said.
"When we were doing the song in 1981, I knew something was happening, but honestly, when I saw it in the film 'Monster' with Patty Jenkins, I started think, 'Oh my goodness there's really something.'"
He added, "The lyric is a strong lyric about not giving up, but it's also about being young, it's also about hanging out, not giving up and looking for that emotion hiding somewhere in the dark that we're all looking for. It's about having hope and not quitting when things get tough, because I'm telling you things get tough for everybody."
