  • OMG people thought black sabbaths other vocalists were ok !!! PLEASE DONT try to fix some thing that was fabulous . COME BACK HUN PLEASE !!!

  • who gives a shit who sounds like who or whatever the hell... THE MUSIC SOUNDS FREEKIN SWEET!!!

  • Steve Perry is a crybaby homo fuck! Get em Arnel Pineda!

  • Give this young man a tambourine .. my hell he has enough energy to make 3 Steve Perry's and an Arnel. He has great energy for Journey and I say ROCK IT to the core Journey and Don't stop Believin! and keep on Dreamin and Rockin The World

  • its so weird to watch arnel sing this song watching him try to put the emotion into it...but we all know that this song was written from real life experiences and was sung for 20+ years be the person who actually wrote it and drew from those experiences to write it. its just strange to me.

  • Loved the concert last night in Mountain View! I kept yelling "I love this song"! Only critique is they didn't play long enough because Night Ranger and especially Foreigner played long.

  • Considering he has to follow Steve Perry, Arnel is an awesome front man.

  • @rintintinification ARNEL SUCKS

  • Neal Schon you suck too. This so called Journey sucks. GOOK in the sky.

  • SUCK

  • Well if Steve ever get's a bad throat he's got a great stand in...love this guy..amazing

  • I don't care what you guys think. Arnel is SPOT on, and even though I never SAW steve, comparing what I see on YouTube and what I saw last week live, Arnel is a WAAAAY better live performer, by far. I do, however, prefer Steve in the recording studio.

  • @SlapAPear Where did you see Journer??? was it Midwest Bank Amphatheatre?

  • @SlapAPear Apparently you never saw Steve Perry live. No comparison. Arnel is good, however, Perry was magic, great in the studio & on studio recordings, but even more so on stage. It was unbelievable. Bouncing around all over as Arnel does is quite distracting and does not add to the performance IMO. Seeing both, I would definitely say Perry is WAAAAY better live performer, by far. Kuddos to Arnel, however, many prefer Steve Perry's magic, which Arnel lacks.

  • @punkchickkool i just said I never saw Steve... i've only seen online footage. and I've seen quite a few videos of Steve live.sure he sounds like what he records, but he doesnt do anything. he has no fun up there, it looks at least. Arnel on the other hand, sounds JUST like Steve, while actually having a good time and BEING a frontman. I would prefer live Arnel any day, no questions asked. But Arnel doesn't have the music writing ability that Steve had, obviously. But everyone has their 2 cents

  • I love how much energy Arnel puts into the shows...I can't wait to see Journey and Foreigner in September in Nashville!

  • @LordSlay18

    Your in for a hell of a show dude...all 3 bands are great. Im a huge foreigner fan and it was amazing. I dont wanna spoil it for you, but it is just priceless on how energetic everyone gets for the last song :P

  • I love Arnel, he has a good voice. However, this sounds 'weak' next to Steve Perry's vocals, which we have been hearing for years. It's hard not to compare Arnel, as Arnels vocals shows Perry all the more the powerhouse Perry is. There is far more to both of them than just the 'high notes' everyone talks about (which are amazing). I actually think the lower octave songs are far sexier and deeper. It is sad to see how low the album sales are for Eclipse. The 'new direction' is not working.

  • @punkchickkool Sales are "low" for Eclipse? I wonder why?

  • @AngelofAnguish People just don't like the new direction (Schon trying to go back and relive his early Journey days in the early 70's). Also, many aren't into the Schonfest going on these days. Plus, Journey just isn't Journey without the voice who made Journey famous. What is going on these days is a good imitation, to those who are okay with imitation. To many, imitation just isn't good enough. Good enough is never enough IMO.

  • I've been a Journey fan for 30 plus years. They have had a few guys who have come close to sounding like Perry but, not quite. My husband posted this video on my FB page and I was floored. I really thought they coerced Perry into coming back until I say it was Arnel Pineda. Even then, I was taken back! Journey has been through a lot of lead singers through the years. It's taken a lot of singers to convince me they're the Journey of old - I miss Perry but, I'm damn happy to hear Pineda.

  • This is one of the songs which allow someone such grounds for distinguishing Steve Perry from Arnel. The way that Steve sang this song live is ridiculously amazing and unmatched by Arnel.

  • Journey needs to go on w/ or w/ out Steve Perry .Journey is a band composing of 5 men and not one man only got it? Ilove STeve P. but i love Arnel P. too. I think Armel is the right lead singer for Journey after Steve Perry, just look at the sales folks, they are becoming stronger as ever !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • YEAHHHH!!!! JOURNEY!!!!!!

  • Only sounds a small bit like steve but steve is the king of the sing journey wouldn be anything with out the perry man !!!!

  • The Journey will continue!!

  • @ninjaturtle205

    Yeah!!

  • why go thru all the problems of trying to get a replica of the real thing. just bring back steve perry otherwise this is a journey homage cover band.

  • perry whos steve perry lol.....you can take the journey from perry but not the perry from journey

  • perry whos steve perry lol.....

  • i am comparing the two singers and i think one difference is that Arnel might be a half or a full note lower in the songs... but mostly i think it is due to Arnel has only been part of Journey for less than a year when most of these videos were recorded... keep going arnel... close enough and plenty good enough for me to listen to your continuing the work that Steve started...

  • totally rejuvenated

  • Arnel Pineda you are very good we love ya.. you sound like Steve Perry..keep up the thing you do for Journey & for us...xxx

  • Honestly, I'd rather hear Arnel sing than Perry. You think Perry can still sing like that? I wouldn't bet on it.

  • Is that Johnathan Cain playing a guitar?

  • its awesome to see these guys still rockin after so many years. steve perry was the man(obviously) but this arnel guys isnt to shabby either.he seems to have rejuvenated them!

  • arnel can sound like anyone because of his great talent

  • steve p. would sing this song with so much ease and clarity...clearly steve will always be the one who sang his songs the best...the guy's voice is legendary..yea arnel's voice sounds very similar to steve's...but one thing I've been noticing is that he doesn't exactly hold the high notes as steve did....but anyhow someones voice has to make journey live on..so I guess arnel is doing a good job so far..would just like to here him hold the high notes just a tad bit longer when he sings

  • Steve perry can't handle this live version coz it's better than his peformace !!! Better than his

  • No one should say that Arnel can't sing. Obviously Journey picked him for a reason. But he was picked to replace a legend. No one can match Steve Perry's amazing and clear voice. It just will always seem weird someone else singing the songs he helped create.

  • I never knew Yoko Ono has that great voice!

    Seriously... great voice! Why should a epic band stop making good music cause one of the former singers left the band? So god will, my children will be able to see them still playing, when they are old enough.

  • anyone who thinks this guy is better than steve perry is on crack. i like this guy no doubt...but there's only one steve perry =)

  • @woot0kt0 I definately agree with you. Arnel is an amazing singer, but no one can ever replace Steve Perry. He is a legend for christ sake!!

  • if you watched that part 4:48 looks like neil will gonna have some orgasm lol that was fully...

  • DAMN!!! Arnel is one Hell of a find! Kudos.

  • @ANeonGenesis Arnel=Karaoke singer

  • I think Arnel sounds like Barry White.

  • Hey everyone stfu

    Steve and Arnel sound almost exactly the same except Arnel sounds younger

    now stop your bitching and enjoy the song

  • @yousuckatlifesir exactly man!

  • aw!! that was awesome... bwahhaha

  • this dude is unreal

  • FILIPINO POWER!

  • Arnel voice is why stronger than Steve Perry. Steve perry is more like a girl pitch

  • Pineda is good, not gonna deny it. But to compare him to Steve Perry AND say that he is better, shows absolutely no brain activity. You can't beat the original, only attempt to break even. The fact that Pineda is even willing to try to fill big shoes is enough for me to respect him. However, Steve was, and always will be, the best singer of all time.

  • He has the pitch, but doesn't quite capture the feeling

  • @CaptainBlaine > OH PLEEZE!!! LET'S GET REAL

  • Arnel Pineda can never replace the musical talents of Steve Perry. They sound nothing alike. A lot of people must be tone deaf.

  • @Amanda76108 I agree! In my opinion, those that've "moved on" and have accepted today's Journey, and thus, saying "Journey's never sounded better" are being "too open minded!" I'll admit, I, too, am "open-minded," but I'm not THAT "open-minded!"

  • Ganda.

  • You rock Arnel!!!!!!!!!

  • dude i'm watching steve perry and arnel pineda's version of this song..and they sound soooooooo alike! theres a difference at some ofcourse..but dang its lyk they were back in 90's sumthing haha

  • what are the chances they found that guy spot on great.

  • maganda

  • As much as I wanna hate Arnel, he is rockin this song. Live on Journey!

  • It's okay, bro. I hate Lenny Kravitz..... that mofo's so damn smooth it should be illegal :~D

  • he is fuckin amazing.

  • Wow. Arnel is pretty fantastic. <3 No lie.

  • GASH

  • MABUHAY KA ARNEL AT ANG JOURNEY!!!

  • nice one arnel..great one..

  • they sound hevy and thats awesome

  • I think he sounds the same as steve perry

  • Arnel is amazing!! So glad one of my favorite groups is BACK. Journey you ROCK!!!

  • Pineda is absolutely good. Don't knock him guys. The guy has the voice.

  • this is the best rendition of the song...

  • face is not important the important is how he make his voice sounds like steve perry :)

  • This guy has an amazing voice, almost a total replica" vocally ", but will never be the frontman that Steve was.

  • @Libra28K > STEVE'S voice sounds gayish...pls. stop comparing!!! ARNEL is a real man!!!

  • STFU PEOPLE...stop being political about shit!!!! ARNEL IS AWESOME!!! i heard Steve's version and he sounded GAY!!!! MOFOS!!!!

  • Gotta agree with guitarman. Arnel is great in his own right, but Steve Perry was magic. Look for Perry doing this same song on youtube and I think you'll agree. I think the band was better back then too, actually.

  • yes but this is much better version..agree or not??

  • Simply cannot deny that Arnel is great! He amazingly sound soooo much like Steve. But also have to say that Steve is my favorite........he is "the voice"

  • Give Arnel a break! He went from small clubs In Asia to preforming in US arenas. Watch the video from how the members of Journey found him and where he came from(homeless @one time). Boston found their new lead singer on myspace, he's works at Home Depot .

  • JOURNEY ON OPHRAH SHOW OCT 2

  • arnel sounds really good here if you want to make some extra dollars online learn how to do it by registering free watch the video TREKPAY

  • wouldnt that have been cool if steve perry's replacement was a 7ft. 500lb. black guy? but with a voice like Arnel? That would have rocked ! Oh to dream......

  • i like more this version.. it really rocks...

  • To all my Journey fans. May 2009: Journey's "Dont Stop Believin" has become the "Most Downloaded Song" ever in music history to date! Congratulations to the band, the fans and everyone who has been a part of this big news for the guys

  • that's because that song kicks ass!!!

  • I like Augeri a little more. But so glad that Journey continues on. No doubt this is the best band of all time. !!!!

  • He's the man!!!

  • He's not the only filipino in rock band there's Kirk Hammett of Metallica. Arnel is awesome though. I've been a fan of Journey with Perry in it but Arnel has a different sound in a special new beginnings approach. I like it.

  • Comment removed

  • he sounds just like Steve Perry

  • Comment removed

  • he sounds like steve perry probably because you can't tell the difference.... but yeah he does sound like steve perry...a little bit but i think arnel is better than steve perry...but thats my opinion i don't know about you but i'm just saying...i'm 14, and i love journey...and i think arnel does a better job than steve perry or steve augeri..... i probably sound like a nut-job saying this cuz im only a teenager...but oh well journey is awesome....i have every album ever made! Journey 4 life!!!!

  • Wow, took some serious balls to say that lol... Arnel is an incredible voice, and does a wonderful job fronting the band. But Steve Perry he is not... But lets be honest, it is very rare that a band gets a new singer, and people like the new singer better. But like I said, this guy can SING.

  • @xoallnightlongox you are a nut job to say that anything is better than steve perry. steve perry has a VERY unique voice, that really nobody can match. Arnel Does a great job of singing, and i admit, when i first heard the album, i thought that was steve perry. im a teenager too. but NO BODY can ever EVER be better than steve perry.

  • @xoallnightlongox I agree. I think most of the hate towards Arnel stems from people having grown up with Perry. I'm only 15, so I've been exposed to the Arnel stuff just as much as Perry. Personally, I think Arnel has better pitch. Perry is sharp on almost every high note he hits. Also, Arnel's stage presence is far superior.

    I love Journey no matter who's singing, I'm just giving my opinion of which I prefer.

  • @xoallnightlongox If you cannot tell the difference then you are tone deaf. This GOOK is awful.

  • @txlastrebel Arnel is good, and should not be called names. However, nobody can compare with Steve Perry's vocals, stage presence, showmanship, emotion, and just pure magic. Those who say they are the 'same' apparently aren't that musically inclined.

  • @lexmarks567 > but he isn't so let's just move on & stop the comparison...Thank you ! PEACE!!

  • 3:03 ooohhh yeeeahhh! great Rythem!!

  • wow, he is great...

  • awesome arnel is the man!
