Journey's "Don't Stop Believin" was just added to the Library of Congress' National Recording Registry (as was Bohemian Rhapsody).

From their 1981 "Escape" album (year I graduated HS), it seemed like every other song on the radio was from that album.  Would you believe it only topped at #9?

Interesting short read from the Detroit Free Press: https://www.freep.com/story/news/columnists/neal-rubin/2022/04/22/journey-dont-stop-believin-south-detroit-national-song-registry/7396168001/

 

If nothing else, PLEASE watch this short and rare interview of Steve Perry talking about the songs origin and his feelings on the songs entry.

 

 

However, my fav from that album is "Mother, Father":

Thanks Bob Cat for that video and props to the people of my hometown Detroit for late one night providing Steve Perry with an idea. 

 

I just watched this solid video again last week. I saw Journey live 4 times. I too was a fan.

Just way too much for me to like on this thread.  My finger is getting a callous.

 

As a huge fan of the 80"s I salute you all.
