“Don’t Stop Believin'” is a popular song by the American rock band Journey, originally released as a single from their 1981 album Escape. The song became a top ten hit on the US Billboard Hot 100, the UK Singles Chart and the Australian Singles Chart. Allmusic has described the song as “an anthem for the young who wanted to feel free and unrestricted”, featuring “one of the best opening keyboard riffs in rock.”
The song enjoyed a resurgence in popularity in the late 2000s, first as digital downloads became prominent, then after its use in various television shows. It is the best-selling digital song released in the 20th century.

The song reached number eight on Billboards Mainstream Rock chart, and number nine on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
The song was originally released in the United Kingdom in February 1982 and managed to peak only at number 62. However, the song, never re-released in the UK, retained a cult following and re-entered the UK Singles Chart in February 2009 at number 94, due to digital downloads. On December 22, 2009, it reached number 9 in the Christmas chart, and remained in the top 10 well into 2010, hitting a peak of number 6. It has now achieved 62 weeks on the official UK Top 75, making it the 9th longest runner of all time, and 89 weeks on the Top 100.
As of September 2010, the song has sold 4,013,000 digital units in the US.

Don’t Stop Believin’ (1981)

Is there anyone on the planet who does not know this song? It has got to be one of the most exposed tracks over the past two decades or so. And, because it’s so well known, it’s very easy to lose sight of just why this is so popular. Because Don’t Stop Believin’ is a peerless example of musical genius. Everything about it is perfect – the musicality, the singing, the simple structure, the insistent melody… hell, this is not just Journey’s best song, it’s one of the truly landmark moments of the 80s.
