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".

I never understood this song, but I liked how there were a lot of keyboard and guitar solos in it.

I suppose it's about either the love for a child or, my guess, the love for a child that has passed away, which would make sense since they sing I covered you with roses, and covered with joy to make their lifetime bog and bright...

it could be either way though since the song was apparently written by Neal Schon's father...

Losing a child that is still living.....

The stories behind Journey's Infinity album - by Steve Perry

Singer Steve Perry goes through his debut album with Journey, track by track.

Steve Perry talks us through the songs that made up his debut album with Journey, Infinity .

“I was standing in Griffith Park Observatory as the sun was coming up, and I could see the lights going down. It came to me like that. When I got together with Neal to write the bridge, it dawned on me that it was really about San Francisco, a city by the bay. I always wanted to live there but I couldn’t afford it.”

Feeling That Way

“Written by myself and Gregg [Rolie] as a song we could both share vocals on. Back then, they would do 25 minutes of their fusion stuff and then I would walk out on to the stage and sing the second verse after Gregg’s intro.”

“They had that intro/bridge when I joined them. Gregg and I did the layered vocals and it became a beautiful segue from the ending of the Feeling That Way a cappella line. Those two songs were played back to back on radio and became sort of hit records.”

“I do have a bit of a knack for the obvious, and maybe that was just a little too obvious. It’s not a save the world track. I guess it worked in the scope of the whole record.”

“The first song I ever wrote with the band. Herbie had flown me out to see the band in Denver, Colorado. After the show, Neal and I went back to the hotel room and we sketched out that idea. The lyrics explain that I was waiting for their [Journey’s] light to shine on me. It’s about me waiting and ready to walk out there and become part of the band.”

Wheel In The Sky

“The way they did that song with Robert [Fleischman] was different from how I was going to interpret it. In the studio in LA with Roy I sang real high falsetto notes with echo in the background while Neal was playing a beautiful solo. Roy spent hours with Neal doing what we called ‘violin guitars’ – root notes, harmonies, doubling, sustaining and providing a thick texture to it all.”

Something To Hide

“One of my favourites. When I first heard Coldplay, they had that same unique feeling and emotional promise that I felt on Something To Hide . Some people felt it didn’t belong on that record. But I loved what it was doing and the vocal/guitar stuff, singing higher harmonies than Neal. After you’ve been on tour for a while that high falsetto can wreak hell, though. That’s why that song really never made it live much.”

Winds Of March

“We were in the south and I had never experienced massive thunderstorms before – it was amazing. I had just gotten a cassette tape recorder; I opened the window and taped the rain and the incredible thunder and we used that recording at our live shows to start the song.”

“It’s funny, but I don’t really remember that song apart from the title. It’s not one that has stuck in my mind.”

Open The Door

“I always thought that there was something very Cream about it. The China Cymbal that Aynsley was playing gave it that feel and Neal did a bunch of violin guitar over it. It had a Middle Eastern edge to it, and a spiritual lyric.”

Derek’s lifelong love of metal goes back to the ’70s when he became a UK underground legend for sharing tapes of the most obscure American bands. After many years championing acts as a writer for  Kerrang! , Derek moved to New York and worked in A&R at Atco Records, signing a number of great acts including the multi-platinum Pantera and Dream Theater. He moved back to the UK and in 2006 started Rock Candy Records, which specialises in reissues of rock and metal albums from the 1970s and 1980s.

"It’s written from the point of view of being older; mortality is the constant.” David Gilmour to release Luck And Strange in September, his first new album in nine years

Think Blur had it bad at Coachella? The Jesus And Mary Chain may as well have been the Spice Girls so far as Roadburn is concerned

"I'm thrilled to share an inside look into our family's wild life through the world of wrestling and rock'n'roll": A Billy Corgan reality TV show is coming to a small screen near you

Journey : Winds of March Meaning

Winds of March Lyrics

I immediately & have always interpreted these lyrics as a Father singing to his child, tears in his eyes, telling them of the unbridled Peace & love they have brought to his life, how they are his world, how he loves them with every depth of his being & will keep them always safe & forever TREASURED. That’s what makes it so interesting to me that so many have written here that they see it being about the LOSS of a child…

My daughter, a beautiful young woman of only 26 years of age. To her when she was a few years old I dedicated this beautiful song by this favorite group of musicians "Journey - Winds Of March - 10/6/1978" My daughter was born in March, my eldest brought us so much... Her dedication to studying at school and martial arts was amazing. She became a professional in biology with the hope of continuing her study with her passion and her love for animals and continue her studies to become a veterinarian, In her mind, she thought of having an animal shelter where they don't have to rest them. (Kill them) God had other plans for her... God gave her ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis) My Daughter, my family and I fought hard to save her, but our sacrifices were in vain. My daughter had her boyfriend who loved her more than himself. He asked us for my daughter's hand in marriage so he could take care of her in our house, they got married. At her wedding, my daughter asked me to dance with her even though she could barely stand up. This was the song that she prepared to dance with me, her father. 7 years have passed since her departure, her brothers, my wife, and I, we constantly mourn the destinations that God gave her. Since then, only three times I could listen to this song... Journey - Winds Of March 15 1988 My baby

Siempre me gustó esta canción. Solo fue cuando mi sobrina de 14 anios se suicidó, pude comprender la profundidad del dolor de esa letra. I always liked this song. It was only when my 14-year-old niece committed suicide that I was able to understand the depth of pain in those lyrics.

The loss of a child and never getting over it.the author of this song must have went through losing a child

I've always interpreted as the strong, protective bond one has with their child whim is just as new to their lives as vice versa for the child, and the great abundance of love, that they have brought to each others lives.

The first stanza is not listed. It is.... I covered you in roses Like the stars at night. I covered you with love Like a blanket on a cold winter’s night I covered in joy To make your lifetime big and bright. The first two lines are about laying a grave blanket of roses on a grave. This is a song about the loss of a child and how the parents made this child’s lifetime, although short, big and bright.

This song is so about the loss of a child. If you have ever lost a child, there is absolutely no doubt. The unbearable sadness in the first part of the song and the chaos and agony you felt when you were told your child is dead,and inside everyday for the rest of your life, in the jam at the end. Trust me, the person that wrote it, lost a child.

This is a song about the loss of a child and how the writer loved him/her. The child was a powerful force in the writer's life because "the winds of march" are physically powerful. You would cover a child in roses if he/she is in a coffin. The rest of the first verse is in the past tense. It's morbid to sing this song to a living child.

I used to sing it to my now 16 year old daughter when she was a baby. To me, it's a song of a mother's unconditional, undying love for her child. <3

A man lost his sweet child whom he loves so dearly; he will be forever greatful of the time he spent with his child. "I covered you with roses" and "you are my child, you came like the winds of March...you made my life big and bright..." Heartbreaking, isn't it? It makes me cry every time...!!!! )":

Neal Schon's father, Matt Schon, is listed as one of the song writers. I believe this song can be interpreted as being about a father's love of his child.
