I think it's the song playing on the radio in the car when the meteor hits the city. That's not an exact answer, but it's the best I could do. It's a shame that song wasn't used better in the film. It's a great, great song and fits the plot of the movie so well.

I have this movie on dvd, and I've seen it many times. I've NEVER heard this song on it that I can recall. I could be wrong, but I've made a mental note to listen out for it. It's one of my favorite songs! :wink:

Deen Castronovo's interview

http://www.collegian.psu.edu/archive/20 ... rts-01.asp

4. Your first song with Journey was on the Armageddon soundtrack. Come on, man, you can say it: Didn't that movie suck?

Oh, God, dude, not only was it a crappy movie, but we all went to the theater to hear our song playing, and it wasn't even in the damn movie! So that sucked. But Liv Tyler's a little hottie, so it's cool.

I seem to remember it being literally one second of the song. And it's barely noticeable if you aren't expecting it. It's one of my favorite songs, too.

It's playing on a Cab's Radio, right before stuff starts falling on the city.

Side note...that interview is pretty funny. It was done by a collegiate newspaper right before a show on their campus on the 2005 Generations Tour. Not your typical questions, and DC was the perfect guy to handle these questions. :lol:

The Soundtrack went four time platinum. Blades was a cowriter on the tune also.

Managed to get an ex-girlfriend to track it down for me!

44 seconds in! You can barely hear it. All I can hear is the very very quiet effect on Augeri voice.

Edit - after careful listening (from the ex) it says "close your eyes remember me"

Yeah. Armageddon really disappointed me with their Journey usage. :lol: :lol:

But the movie was really good overall.

Well, thanks mostly to Aerosmith and Diane Warren, the album made it into 4 million households, so Remember Me is getting some love, somewhere at least.

that was a good interview lol funny stuff

11. Describe the typical Journey groupie.

Oh boy, I'm gonna get my a-- chewed up for this one. The typical Journey groupie is between 35 and 45, absolutely fanatical -- she knows everything about everything, you know, maybe when we met two years back and where we were and what I was wearing. They are rabid. But we love 'em!

From the same interview:

3. You guys toured with Styx a few years back. You think you could take them in a fight?

The Styx guys would kick our a--!
They're brothers, though, and we love 'em, but they'd kick our a--. Although [Journey guitarist] Neil [Schon] would smoke all of 'em.



Is this true?

You're trying to verify if Styx would beat Journey in a fight?

Maybe someone else remembers, but wasn't Journey's 'Remember Me' originally supposed to play during the closing credits?
As I recall, the band coming out of their hiatus had a lot riding on this movie.
Instead, they ended up taking a far nosebleed backseat to Aerosmith.
This, combined with the early Napster leak, led some to speculate that Sony was sabotaging the band...that they were really not behind a Perry-free Journey.

I think that it was.

You might try googling it if you haven't already.

I'm trying to find out if Styx was a better band than Journey in concert back then.

Deen is just kidding around. If you ask Styx fans they'll say Styx was better, Journey fans will say Journey was better.
Ain't like either band is playing Madison Square Garden anytime soon.
They both play county fairs aplenty, that's for sure.
This year, the Styx / REO Speedwagon / 38 Special concerts look like a good ticket as far as getting a lot of bang for your buck. Last year, the Journey / Heart / Cheap Trick concerts were the big show. It's all the same.

When it comes to classic bands and how well they tour,you have Bon Jovi and U2. These are guys that can fill stadiums.
Then you have the everyone else on the next tier down (Def Leppard, Journey, Pat Benatar, Foeigner, etc.) These are the bands grabbing touring partners for the bigger shows just to be sure they fill the seats. When they perform alone, expect 2.000 to 5,000 seat arenas. I believe the place Rick is seeing Journey this year holds 2,400. The shows with Night Ranger and Heart will be in the bigger venues.

Taylor Swift, Hannah Montana and Michael Buble are the hot one's selling out 30k arenas everynight without any problems.

Not sure about that...
The consensus during the 2003 Main Event tour, even from some Journey fans, was that Styx was upstaging Journey.
Some blamed it on the fact that Journey was the last act of the night on a busy triple bill.
Crowds would leave early, and even Cain mentioned they weren't used to going out late.
For whatever reason, they didn't *bring it* nightly.
It was kinda like how during the Def tour, more people ended up talking about the opening act, (the Soto-energized lineup), than the actual headliner.

So they were saying Journey wasn't giving the effort, or was Augeri's voice already starting to deteriorate? I'm thinking he had been with the group for four years already when this tour took place.
