Journey is an American rock band formed in 1973 in San Francisco by former members of Santana and Frumious Bandersnatch. The band has gone through several phases; its strongest commercial success occurred between 1978 and 1987, after which it temporarily disbanded. During that period, the band released a series of hit songs, including 1981's "Don't Stop Believin'", which became in 2009 the top-selling catalog track in iTunes history. Its parent studio album, Escape, the band's eighth and most successful, reached No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and yielded another of their most popular singles, "Open Arms".

Behind the Song: “Faithfully” by Journey
by Tina Benitez-Eves September 10, 2021, 9:44 am 1 Comment
Highway run / Into the midnight sun / Wheels go round and round / Youâre on my mind.
Videos by American Songwriter
âIn all honesty, itâs a road song,â says Jonathan Cain.
Observing the band’s touring crew, many of which didnât have the money to fly their wives and kids around with them, the Journey keyboardist felt drawn to write a song about being on the road, far removed from loved ones, and found âFaithfully,” the first lines coming to Cain one evening after a show when the band was stuck in a snow storm.
âI watched the crew take down the whole stageâthe speakers, the lights, the trusses,â Cain tells American Songwriter. âI watched the daredevils climb to the top like âOh, my God, this is like a circus performance.’ I was so touched, and I thought we didn’t have a song, but if we had a song, or we sent one home to our loved ones, like a postcard to help bridge the distance between the road and home what would it be.â
Snowed in for the night, Cain started writing the first few lines of “Faithfully” on a napkin.
“I started thinking about me and my relationship, and I was missing my new wife at the time, and we were having trouble,” shares Cain. “There were early signs that we would probably split apart. I knew I needed to do something that said, âI love you, and whether or not you want to leave me, here it is,â so I got on the bus, and there was this grey sky, and the moon was doing some kind of crazy stuff in the clouds, and it looked like the midnight sun. Then I wrote Highway run / Into the midnight sun / Wheels go round and round / Youâre on my mind.”
After starting the song, Cain downed a beer and went to sleep, awakened by the smell of diesel fuel from the band’s bus. âIn the morning, I saw the napkin sitting there on the nightstand and I said to myself, âThis is a good song, so I started automatically lining up the lines and filling it in. In 30 minutes, all the lyrics were done. Then all of a sudden, I believe the Holy Spirit sent it to me, but I thought of the line âIâm forever yours, faithfully.ââ
Cain took the napkin to the bandâs next soundcheck in Saratoga Springs, New York, placed it on his piano, and started quietly singing âFaithfully,â working out the melody and piano parts, yet never recorded any demo until he revisited âFaithfullyâ with the late producer Keith Olsen (Fleetwood Mac, Ozzy Osbourne, Heart) and finally recorded the track.
Olsen played the song for Heart’s Ann Wilson, who loved it, but it was a Journey song. By the time the band was recording Frontiers, they needed a ballad, and âFaithfully” was ready to go.
âPerry said to me âIâll sing it on one condition, you can’t be in the room when I’m singing,ââ remembers Cain. âI said, âfine,â and we cut it in three takes. We never played it before. We never rehearsed it. That’s how good Journey is.â
He adds, âNeil didn’t know what to play, and I looked at him and I said, âbe a French horn”… and the song became a classic.â
Reflecting more on the track, Cain tells American Songwriter that the circumstances around the song give it deeper meaning threaded in love, faith, and music. âIt was my first year out on the road, and I was in a really grateful place being young with a band like Journey, and grateful for how far up God had elevated me,” says Cain. âMy identity was sort of acknowledged, finally. As a writer and performer, I felt like I belonged there. I didn’t feel like, âOh, I don’t deserve this.ââ
Replacing original keyboardist and Journey co-founder Gregg Rolie, who left the band to explore new projects and start a family, Cain, then 31, began working on the bandâs seventh album, Escape , writing many of the tracks, including âFaithfully,â along with singer Steve Perry and guitarist Neal Schon in 1983. By the time Frontiers was released Cain already had âDonât Stop Believinââan encouraging phrase his father shared with him when he was youngerââOpen Arms,â and more Journey hits under his belt.
âI feel like I earned every bit of it,â says Cain of the recognition he felt by the time âFaithfullyâ was released. âAt the same time, I was grateful.
Today, the song, which originally peaked at No. 12, has never left the Journey setlist, but Cain regrets that âFaithfullyâ never found placement in a film. He can’t even get the song covered, and once approached Garth Brooks as well as Tim McGraw and Faith Hill to cover the ballad.
“I can’t get it covered,” laughs Cain. âI guess they’re afraid of the original. It is a great song.â

40 Years Ago: Journey’s ‘Faithfully’ Arrives in a Dream
With their eighth studio album, 1983's Frontiers , Journey's transition from prog-influenced rock to radio-friendly, arena-ready fare was all but complete — an evolution that included one of the decade's quintessential ballads in the Top 20 hit "Faithfully."
Written by keyboardist Jonathan Cain , "Faithfully" followed lead-off Frontiers single "Separate Ways (Worlds Apart)," which had scored Journey a Top 10 pop hit while topping the rock charts — extending an impressive streak of crossover singles that stretched back to 1979's "Lovin', Touchin', Squeezin'." Although Journey's brand of polished bombast would eventually be seen as just another ingredient in the power ballad formula that took over the Top 40 later in the decade, it was still powerfully effective; at this point, the band had already graced the upper reaches of the pop charts with "Who's Crying Now" and "Open Arms."
Still, even in the context of a catalog not without its share of softer songs, "Faithfully" stood out — particularly for Cain, who dashed it off in a burst of creativity while the band was on the road. "He told me he got the melody out of a dream," Neal Schon said in the liner notes to their 1992 box set, Time Cubed . "I wish something like that would happen to me."
"I don't think I've written a song so quickly. I mean, it was probably a half an hour," he told Songfacts . After scribbling out some lines on a napkin, he recalled feeling the rest of the composition come to him in a flood. "I'd never had a song come to me so quickly that it was anointed, supernatural. Literally, in 30 minutes I had written that song. I had the napkin in my pocket and I put it on the piano. I had a big grand piano there by the orchestra. I played through it and I thought, 'Man, this is good.'"
Clearly, Cain's bandmates agreed — and so did a number of Journey's musical peers. Not long after "Faithfully" hit the airwaves, Cain got a call from Prince , who, he recalled, played him "Purple Rain" and said, "The chord changes are close to 'Faithfully,' and I don't want you to sue me." To his credit, Cain came away from the conversation with anything but a lawsuit on his mind.
"I thought it was an amazing tune," Cain later said. "I told him, 'Man, I'm just super-flattered that you even called. It shows you're that classy of a guy. Good luck with the song. I know it's gonna be a hit.'"
As it turned out, it wasn't the only extra hit to grace the airwaves with a little bit of "Faithfully" DNA. Bryan Adams ' longtime songwriting partner Jim Vallance attributed road-induced musical osmosis to their own 1984 hit "Heaven," admitting they were influenced by that song in particular after Adams toured with Journey as their opening act.
But ultimately, it was still a personal statement from Cain — and one that, in the moment, had exactly the impact he intended. "I knew it had something," he told the Tennessean . "I knew anytime you have that innocence and that transparency and you’re able to let your guard down as a man, and tell a woman that you’re forever hers. I was having trouble with my marriage at the time, and so my wife came on the road and I played it for her. And she just gave me a big old hug. It meant a lot to her that I had written it."
