Though Journey has had many members over the years, 19 in total, the most famous lineup consisted of Steve Perry and 4 other greasy, hairy men.
Perry, who looks a bit like what you'd expect the child of the Joyce DeWitt from Three's Company and Robert Carlyle from Trainspotting to look like, went on to have a solo career after leaving the band, then joining the band, then leaving the band. No one cared.
For sure, Steve-O. Tying your shirt at your belly is a manly look.
Though having a career spanning several decades and having performed many songs that became huge hits, the band is most notable for being an eclectic blend of suck and awesome. Suck in that they suck, but awesome in that you will sing along with their music when you hear it because you can't not do that.

Cracked Talk on | Journey
Journey's songs are simple and empty. They didn't DO anything culturally, and, as we just saw, children can play the damn songs. They are catchy songs that everyone sings to, but there's nothing about their music that's commendable, as opposed to, say, Metallica or Nirvana, both of which essentially created an entire genre.
WOW, you said that Journey wrote catchy and simple songs, unlike Nirvana? That is either very clever jab at Niravna or you are an idiot. And what genre did Metalica start? I can't wait to see this.
I conceded the songs are very singable and they are awesome, but if you're arguing Don't Stop Believin is a good song, I'm forced to conclude you're either quite insane, or one of those 19 band members. Journey is a pop culture joke.
Why do you hate America and love cancer?
No, Hannah "gonna get pregnant and snort a line" Montana is a pop culture joke, along with screamo and Cher(I mean seriously, why the fuck is she famous?)
I know of no one who DOESN'T like "Don't Stop Believin.'" I assume you'll pull the nonconformist card on me here, but it's kind of an awesome classic song.
I agree with you OneSolution. I've enjoyed Journey since they first began. They have some good album's with a lot of good songs. And many of their songs climbed pretty high on the charts.
IMHO I think they are one of the best groups America has to offer.And it was always wise to have their music in your car when your taking a babe out on a date. You pop in the music and your girl will be heating up fast and the next thing you know your in heaven with a smile dynamite can't remove.
There's no way Journey sucks.they are one of Americas best creations.Who ever wrote this article needs to turn up their hearing aids volume or go get their hearing checked. Because something must wrong with ears.
