Best song on Journey Greatest Hits

All those Raised on Radio singles are underrated. I choose "I'll Be Alright Without You."

So OTM! ROR had even more gloss than Journey's earlier discs, and it sounded great. I think it was their last disc with Steve Perry, right?

This thread makes me (slightly) less ashamed to be a Journey fan!

"Wheel In The Sky" is the only song I can stand on that album.

You can argue with the intent, but this is a rock band at the height of its powers:

we've got armadillos in our trousers

the absence of "stone in love" bums me out too -- my favorite journey song by a mile -- but i went with "who's crying now" because i like those neon space-age ballads.

Lovin Touchin Squeezin

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

Onion rings all round

hahahahah

See, that comparison upthread is interesting but I'm not sure that the arrangement tricks in DSB are really that much more subtle than in "New World Man". Are you sure it's not just that you like it better? (e.g. I think it's pretty obvious that the distorted guitar takes over the piano figure when it comes in.) And who replicated and exceeded Rush? Triumph?? Dream Theatre?? I kind of have to question in what sense "Stone In Love" is the most complicated song dave q ever heard as well! I love both songs though.

"Faithfully" was played on Delilah tonight, I really felt it

I keep thinking about how I want to poll the Journey singles without "Believin'" the same way I polled the R. Kelly singles without "Ignition"

I will never understand why people like "Don't Stop Believin."

TWO FUCKING HEARTS

I've been listening to "Be Good to Yourself" a lot over the past few weeks because, for as much as it's basically a musical "Hang In There" kitten poster, it does lift my mood.

Separate Ways has started to become the new DSB to me in terms of overplay (cos it's done a lot at the karaoke bar by this uber-mega rock tenor friend of mine).

I really like "Who's Crying Now", especially Steve's vocal, but the atmosphere is so "rainy evening" and that piano is fantastic.

now THIS is the core, the heart music

nowadays I would vote for "Who's Crying Now"

I'd probably vote for "Any Way You Want It". I like Journey but this phenomenon is curious to me. This compilation was released in 1988. "Don't Stop Believin'", a 1981 song which people were already hearing on classic rock stations, although maybe not more than "Lights" or "Lovin', Touchin', Squeezin'", and certainly not more than "More Than a Feeling", was used in a popular TV episode, and everyone suddenly decided that it was a universally beloved anthem, to the point that sales of this compilation was revived and it remained a big seller for over a decade?

*were

“lights” all the way

“who’s crying now” is great

i think "faithfully" is the only journey song i can stand anymore

totally "Who's Crying Now?" or "Send Her My Love"

if I hear "Don't Stop Believing" anymore I'm destroying a Buick dealership

"Who's Crying Now" evokes rain beating against a window pane while some dude finds an item his now ex left behind in his apartment and he starts losing it.

i have a lot of warm memories of hearing this tune play when riding in the folks' Oldsmobile
