Journey

I am bad at remembering what band did what song and blah blah blah.  My friends say that I know nothing about classic rock and that I better learn before they do horrible things.  So I mean, I know lots of classic rock songs, but I don't necessarily attribute them to any one band.  And then, I discovered Journey. 

The thing about them is, I actually love like everything they've ever done, but just never knew that they did it.  Now, you may think me an idiot, but I discovered a few weeks ago that they did Faithfully.  Who knew?  Not me...

So last night I was listening to their new singer sing it (He is filipino btw, and amazing) and it grabbed me the right way.  I am not normally emo, but yesterday was quite the emo day.  Anyway, the whole song melts my soul, especially this part:

And being apart ain't easy
On this love affair
Two strangers learn to fall in love again
I get the joy
Of rediscovering you
Oh girl, you stand by me
I'm forever yours... faithfully.

You can see the video of the band ZOO covering this song here.  Their singer is now the singer for Journey, and apparently they found him on YouTube.  Internet ftw.
