  • Show some respect for this guy. He sang his heart out for 8 years with Journey and lost his voice because of it

  • well it really sounds like the one in las vegas

  • Isn't it true that by 2005, most of Augeri's vocals were tape backups? I don't think is live singing.

  • Say it aint so!

  • this one? i really think that you can recognize the similarity of his voice in this video and the video in las vegas 2001....

    the reason why you are saying this

  • Love this man -- great showman; stellar vocals, and a wonderful, sweet person. Funny -- Journey has a new singer; yet fans prefer to follow Steve solo where ever he goes. Pink Floyd ... when Roger Waters left the band after legally going after the Pink Floyd name and losing in court; fans flocked to see David, Rick and Nick. It seems to be the VOICE that people follow. If Pearl Jam's Eddie Vedder ever went solo; people would follow him too, and not the band if they got a new singer.

  • wow!! lots of insults here, i guess these are all better singers than any journey frontman huh? lmao my motto dont insult vocalists even if you are better, show some damn respect

  • I really liked Steve Augeri. Not only did he do justice to Perry's songs but he also brought songwriting dynamics into the mix as well. He wasn't just a sound alike, the band seemed to actually musically grow. I liked the harder edge that many of the songs took on. While I mean no disrespect to Arnel, it bothers me that the band seemas to just forget everything that Steve A. did. None of the Augeri material is performed anymore, and it seems like they're just rehashing the Perry era.

  • cant sing the old stuff its an insult.cant speak english

  • arnel sux

  • It's such a shame Augeri couldn't carry on. I think He's better ar signing Stone in Love than Pineda. and Pineda is awsome.

  • Journey fans I invite you all to stop by our page by clicking on my username and listen to this song performed by Arrival a tribute to Journey!

    Let us know your opinion.

    Thank you all.

    Jeff Salado(singer of Arrival)

  • For shits sake let it all go, SP (IS) the voice of JRNY and always will be, Augeri & Parnel are SUBS, get it! Its not there abilities or lack thereof, but the volitale but yet workable CHEMISTRY you leave out when hating on Sp, he made the hits we all love, analogy this if your wife/girlfriend were the best servers in the world for the house of blues and then by their decision or the resturants got forced into working for McDonalds or wafflehouse, would that make them let talented than they were

  • Comment removed

  • boo sir

  • Sir you are delusional at best

  • i wonder why truckers hate arnel very much lmao

  • Guys, guys! Breathe, relax, and take a chill pill. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion and there isn't any need for rude comments.

  • So what happened to this butt dart in white pants singing? This guy here couldn't carry Steve Perry's douchebag! Yes I said douchebag because that's what Perry is now...an ego maniac DOUCHEBAG...Faithfully! LOL! Journey waited for Perry long enough and it didn't work out people. Fact is the guy can't sing anymore the way he use to. It's a FACT! Now that they have Arnel on the mic they're selling out venues everywhere and kicking ass again people!! Enjoy the ride while it lasts!

  • Augeri gave Journey a certain flare.... while Perry is "the voice" and can never be replaced......Augeri rocked while he was with Journey. Arnel = good singer; wrong band

  • I'm a SOLID PERRY until the night of 30 July 2008. I was stunned, blown away during their concert in Tampa. That new guy Arnel had earned my respect. I'm glad I went out and saw them, otherwise I'm still sour griping on YT about this and that. Get out there and see them and be the judge. YT will never sound like a real concert venue.

  • im sure you tube quality doesn't even compare to an actual live performance...and dont get me wrong im not hating on arnel...the guy is good...and while he is soulful....i loved the NEW songs from the revelation album arnel sounded great....its just the older journey ones....his voice didnt have a "rock-ish" tone like Perry or Augeri ..but i catch what ur saying maybe one day i'll get the opportunity to see Arnel perform

  • sorry i couldn't tell that this wasn't steve perry. really nice voice!

  • like air supply singing journey songs..lol

  • No Steve no peace! Do Not Want

  • that is Augeri. ??

  • too bad that isn't Augeri, otherwise i'd see them

  • are you retarded, this is augeri :|

  • The sound is definately NOT taken from the 2001 dvd. I have watched the dvd many times. The ending is totally different. Augeri did a great job. Journey is finished, at least as a credible band. I guess they can continue on as a tribute band.

  • You are completely right!!!

  • i have a billion video bootlegs from 2005, and in some steve sounds awful, but in others, he just sounds amazing, but i can tell if it is live, or lip synched. Because he ad libs different, and changes some words and notes.

  • @honda71 really?

  • @honda71

    Dude, wake up. This is taken EXACTLY from the 2001 DVD. They edit-tooled it and wiped it off real nice in the studio, edited out the ending and gave a new ad-libbing for the end. Augeri goes from being VERY crisp, to sounding very rasp and cracking his voice during the "new ending." Give it up, I love Augeri, but this is 2001 DVD to a tee. Go look at any OTHER concert clips, they are exactly the same!

  • I really don't know how much of a Journey fan some people are!This sound has been taken off the 2001 dvd!Do some of you live under a rock?C'mon listen!Who ever did this needs to growup!

  • Not sure if my last comment went through. It does sound like the same track was used on this track: watch?v=NbudiAQsPJc That is Journey in Atlanta, and it sure sounds like the exact same thing as here. I wish I was wrong, I hope I'm wrong.

  • You stand correct! Some dork is trying to screw Augeri around! Some people on here know the truth! Some are just being idiots!

  • Speak your mind against Journeys screwups and get a -! Shame on you!

  • Journey won't ever be as good as when Steve Perry was with them. I wouldn't ever see them live without Steve Perry- still love 'em though.

  • I grew up listening to Steve Perry and I saw two Journey concerts that were amazing. I was pleasantly surprised to hear Steve Augeri with Journey a few years ago and he was impressive. Great show. Perry was great and so was Augeri. Long live Journey.

  • Ya some bands are great no matter what, I saw INXS with their new guy, and it was really good, although I would never compare the two singers.

  • I was at that show! That was so awesome how they played 2 sets (and even threw in some of the early Gregg Rolie-era stuff from the 70s as well). Journey should put out a DVD of one of those shows from the 30th Anniversary tours, since the setlists spanned the band's whole career.

  • I think I was at that show. Was this the show without Def Leppard?

  • I'm an Augeri Fan. Definatly. But this is lipped off the 2001 DVD no doubt. I compared the DVD to this, and it's identical. Notice the way Steve A is holding the microphone really really close to his mouth, but when he wasn't lipping he would hit high notes far away from his mouth. This is lipped.

  • This ain't lipped! The audio is from the 2001 dvd and this is another concert!

  • i agree that it is lipped. but i am a huge augeri fan

  • i meant that i agree that it might be lipped. i dont care if it is though

  • For what it's worth, mikekawkz is right on the money. They actually started pulling that stunt before the Generations shows and used it predominately throughout '05 and the UK/ Euro shows of '06. I don't expect the diehards to ever accept it (or 'hear' what is obvious) but having kept in touch with guys who worked with J in the Augeri era (and before) I know what went on, and why.

  • Yeah it went on cause he was losing his voice?Is that his fault or the fault of the band touring?If the guys voice went then thats the bands reputaion on the line for letting that happen!

  • so it was like he lipsync thru the shows? kind of heard all these talks & from interviews...oz SA was losing his voice, like SP lost his voice too so he didnt want to tour anymore. Yes, Journey songs are hard to sing, brutal on the voice. And with such rigid tour, it really can kill the voice box.

  • I think if its true i would blame Neal and the band!Maybe thats why he has not returned!

  • his voice Sp is probably no longer the same, like TOTO (steve Lakather) could no longer hit the high notes. Journey is sweeping the US right now with Arnel, a lot of converts now

    from Perry to Arnel. We all age. The voice fades too as we get old. We all get there. So

    let's enjoy the Journey. Good thing Neal did not stop believing, never walked away from the Journey. Theyre resurrected. Fans wants them now in SuperBowl halftime. Great!!!. They gained new Journey fans a lot more.

  • No longer the same!No shit! Better then this idiot Arnel!Sweeping the U S ? Yes they were sweeping the U S before monkey face showed up!Neal didn't Stop believin?Gee i wonder why! This is the only band that has gotten this far that he has been with! As for Arnel he can go pound salt cause i aint following this band with that joker as the singer!

  • Steve Augeri, you're fired!!! lol j/k. hmmmm. how long will JSS last with the "co-founder" of the band? Steve Perry is the best singer and don't know if ever Journey will ever get back to its highest peak (i.e. back when the lead singer was S.P.)

  • Hey! He wasn't fired, he had to quit because of throat issues.

  • Steve didn't have throat issues. Just rumors

  • OOps, sorry, I thought you were talking about Steve Perry

  • He also was kidding!MAybe you should slam the door on the person who put this together!

  • what a bunch of fannies you guys are, its a great song enjoy it for what it is.

  • I think certain people on here and on other journey forums are being totally unfair to steve augeri! HE has a superb voice and if you sang for a period as long as he did with journey dont you think youre voice would be a bit tired too? so what if they used some back up tracks??? GIVE THE GUY A BREAK!!

    he's a damn site better than the new monstrosity they have in jeff "Afro"scott soto!! He is used to belting out songs, has no melody,sensitivity and isnt journey like in anyway. i!!

  • flatcoat, that is a joke statement, even at his best, Augeri would sound decent on some of the ballads but the uptempo stuff, forget it, just never cut the mustard. You have no knowledge of Soto's career (calling him afro is pretty damn racist of you since the guy is latino!) otherwise you would know he hits the softest of the soft & the hardest of the hard, the guy can sing the phonebook! Do your homework before you rip on someone...the new Journey album will be the proof in the pudding!

  • Steve Augeri never used backing tracks. Fuck you if you think that. You're an imposter Journey fan and need to go play with some fire. Thank you :)

  • You're right. He never used backing tracks. he used canned LEAD vocals. Big difference. His career is mercifully over.

  • Notice any similarities between the lead vocals in this and the lead vocals from you Live 2001 DVD?

  • ANYONE who has listened closely to the 2001 DVD can tell that this is not even close to that. GET A CLUE before you post this crap.

  • and this clip is not even remotely like the vocals on the 2001 dvd!! get your ears tested and stop listening to the sheep!! baaa

  • The only thing similar to the vocals in this clip to the dvd is the tone and style of him singing the song.

  • I laugh at all the conspiracy stuff online now. Journey is made up of great musicians. Regarding Vocal Pitch Correction, the digital technology for correction has been used by ALL of the Pros since it became possible to do in a live concert scenario. You can easily correct anyone's voice that is off a few cents + / - (that would be highter (Sharp) or lower (Flat) to non-musicians) in nano-seconds.

  • Augeri is a legend, great singer....i wish people would stop comparing him to Perry, it was Perry that left Journey, not Journey that left Perry

  • great singer yes...legend no

  • Legend no? I say yes.Only cause JSS talks through a songs

  • ok now im just laughing because you are a retard. do you have nothing better to do than to keep posting the same comment? simple things amuse simple minds.

  • So why do you keep coming back for more?

  • perry didnt really have a choice, read up... was that mess from his hip.

    They each were great in their own way, each brought their own kind of talent to the band.

    FOr me, my favorite was steve perry. Or maybe its because my favorite jounrey songs came out while he was lead, how how, journey's been one of the best all these years!
