The Hidden Faith Behind Don't Stop Believin | San Jose News

The song you think is just a feel-good anthem? It’s actually a spiritual message. Jonathan Cain, co-writer of Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believin’,” reveals the track was inspired by his father’s faith and his own near-death experience as a child. His dad told him God had a plan for him in music — a radical idea back then — and that belief kept him going when he almost quit. Now, as Journey prepares to say goodbye on tour, Cain credits divine intervention for his rise from Chicago to crafting a global hit. The lyrics? Maybe they’re not just about holding on — they’re about holding on to the Holy Spirit. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
