"Stone in Love" rides on Escape, the Journey album released in July 1981, and it's a group effort from the songwriting down: Steve Perry, Neal Schon and Jonathan Cain wrote it together. Mike Stone and Kevin Elson produced, with Elson also engineering and Wally Buck assisting.

Schon's guitar does the swaggering, bright and big-toned, while Cain's keyboards and piano fill the corners and Ross Valory's bass and Steve Smith's drums and percussion keep the engine turning. Perry's voice soars up top, with Cain, Schon and Valory stacking harmonies behind him. It's arena rock with the chrome polished to a blinding shine.
