For the Love of Strange Medicine is the second solo studio album by American singer and songwriter Steve Perry, released on July 19, 1994, through Columbia Records. The album came after a lengthy eight-year hiatus following the breakup of his band Journey. The first single from the album, "You Better Wait", received radio airplay, reaching the top 10 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock chart and peaking at No. 29 on the Billboard Hot 100. The album was certified gold by the RIAA in September 1994 and was followed by a tour from 1994 to 1995.

The song "Young Hearts Forever" was written by Perry as a tribute to his late friend, Thin Lizzy frontman Phil Lynott, who died in 1986.
