@radiowithdrawal: “Separate Ways (Worlds Apart)” was released in 1983 on the Frontiers album by Journey. Written by Jonathan Cain and Steve Perry during the bands 1982 Escape tour, the lyrics were inspired by the painful divorces that band members Neal Schon and Ross Valory were going through at the time, with lyrics describing a couple who have to separate, even though they still care for each other. The song was heavily inspired by Motown beats of the past and was thrown into random live sets to gauge audience interest, as the band was unsure about ever releasing it on an album. The song would go on to peak at number 8 on the Billboard chart. Excerpt: Here we stand Worlds apart, hearts broken in two, two, two Sleepless nights Losing ground, I’m reaching for you, you, you Feeling that it’s gone Can’t change your mind If we can’t go on To survive the tide Love divides #journey #1983 #rockmusic #80s #80smusic #1980s #vinyl #strangerthings
