Even if you never heard “Oh, Sherrie” before you might be able to guess what the song could be about, and you won’t be wrong. The song was about Steve Perry’s then-lover, Sherrie Swafford.

Steve was apart of a band called Journey at that point in time. Sherrie even made an appearance in their music video. However, as sweet as it may seem, the relationship didn’t last a long time, and the couple never got married.
