Perry's vocals and Neil on guitar hits you deep in the emotions, very very few bands are able to do that constantly.

[rubar]

that solo creeps under my skin. It's amazing.

[RVTIPSANDTRAVELS]

I thought I was the only one in the world who felt this way about this solo. It’s journeys best song, a perfect song.

[tzr]

Neal’s solo in Still the ride just confirms his creative melodic genius, very very underrated.
Prince called it when he described Neal Schon a genius.

[IAmTrillionaire]

Neal And Steve Are The Heavenly Melodic Pair In History So Far!!!

[cuddzilla]

That album came out right after a breakup with my first love. I wore out the cassette. I was 3 years into drumming and spent a lot of time with this album. That haunting solo takes me back to a cold, lonely Winter. Still amazes me how powerful hearing it all over again is. Music reaches your soul.

[rtrwing]

Neil Schon is the reason I learned to play the guitar 42 years ago!

[cory]

I cant play a lick of music but I can watch Ricks tutorials all day long. Such a cool guy.

[Valarien]

I share your love of Neal Schon's playing, vastly under appreciated IMO; Neal Schon and Steve Perry were one the greatest melodic pairings in rock history...

[sdthor]

Without a doubt, one of Journey's finest songs. Kind of gets overlooked today, but that was Journey at their peak.

[mcclane]

This is one of those absolutely perfect songs start to finish. The voice, the melodramatic guitar tone and the soupy haze of early summer concert nights listening to great music in the 80s. This is music composition perfection

[huntingsynth]

Neil Schon is in the top 10 greatest guitarists of all time….but what makes him unbelievable is the fact that in this space he is by far the most underrated…he truly adds to the songs and does not distract

[jakeaustin]

I also love Schon’s solo in Who’s Crying Now. So clean and crisp with no embellishment. Perfect for the fade out

[jayrussell]

You really know a song is special when you can replay the solo or voicing in your head, without any effort .

[marnimajor]

Schon is one of the most underrated guitar players in rock. Amazing musician.

[MrPercussionPete]

There was something magic, mysterious and mesmerizing about this Journey album. I can remember it like yesterday, playing it endlessly, it was just so beautiful.

[Chef_Kevin]

I was 13 when this came out. Beautiful solo and will always bring me back to the childhood days

[smoothpicker]

Neal schons solos always fit the song perfectly, never goes over the top with crazy guitar tricks, he keeps every note relevant to the song. Just incredible playing.

[DavidPykeVentures]

There is so much emotion in this song... ugh! You can feel it. And yes... it's a perfect solo. Makes you want to cry...

[calwells]

Neal's always been incredibly melodic. He's not afraid to slow down and play the perfect parts, even though he can absolutely fly around the fretboard. Monster player.
