Its been a long time since I've heard this, I really like Journey.
I grew up on this music so it was good to be able to listen again.


Why is it so horrible?
I ask all one-star reviewers, WHY is Journey so horrible if a childrens movie (Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs) has this song in its commercial? Why is Steve Perry and the gang so horrible is Glee performed "Don't Stop Believin'"? Why I ask?

EVEN MY MOTHER IN LAW (Who thinks 80's music ruined the twenty first century) LOVES THIS ALBUM!

Please, tell me why you think Journey is so awful!

Excellent
I wish the group was still together. I have been listening to Journey's Greatest Hits in my car for a couple of weeks now and I just love every song. At least they left some wonderful songs to enjoy. They are the best!!! .


Not my thing, basically, BUT.....
. . . I hate to admit it, I've heard DON'T STOP BELIEVING enough times on the radio, in the supermarket, on the freaking SOPRANOS, that, yeah, I will concede it's pretty good. And if even the lamest band in the world can have one decent song for which they are fondly remembered, what's so bad about that? Spare me the rants about how this music presaged the downfall of Western society: Madonna, Britney Spears and Axl Rose managed to do THAT far more effectively.

The worst you can say about this group and their "hits" is that it's all pretty generic, but even a generic band can have a home run.


The Ultimate Journey!!
THIS is the Journey CD that should be first on your list of purchases!!
5 STARS!! This CD showcases their best music and how talented a group this Journey Band truly was. . . HOWEVER keep in mind. . ONLY BUY the Journey CDs with Steve Perry. After all, HE is the reason for their success!! Tragically. . the rest of the band decided to throw him under the bus and found a poor imitation of Mr. Perry to take his place.

What this band has transformed into is nothing more than a "cover band" with a poor imitator trying pathetically to act and sound like Steve Perry.

Save yourself the expense. . ONLY PURCHASE THOSE JOURNEY CDs with Steve Perry(as the lead singer). There is such a VAST DIFFERENCE and while they have managed to find a poor substitute to take the lead's place. . . he DOES NOT possess the vocal range and overall talent that ONLY belongs to Steve Perry!!.
