Ya know, I have been reading all of this bickering since Auggie was in the band. He was not the best choice to replace Sp. I think they got it right this time. I have been a fan since Infinity. I love all of the music Perry did with this band. But now we have a lead singer that CAN sing Perry's songs quite well, IMHO, PLUS put out some more ORIGINAL music. Why can't we all just kick back and enjoy what we had then and have now? These guys wont be around forever to play ya know.

I know I have commented on this video already, but every time I listen to Schon's solo in Only The Young Can Say, I get goosebumps. The guy is so awesome.
I sincerely believe Neil took a back seat to Perry for the sake of the band and fame and fortune. When Perry took his hiatus, he decided it was time to step up and move himself along with the others forward showcasing his and the other members in an awesome direction while never changing their tremendous music and style. I, personally, would like to thank him for it. I always loved and looked forward to his solos.
@chasethedragon many thanks for sharing this wonderful vids of Arnel with Journey. Sooo amazing. goosebumps! Arnels' a great singer and performer. He's also a very humble guy and nice guy. He deserved all the success he is getting now. their concert in Honolulu rocks!
I love when the play the old stuff and throw in the new with it. This band is so Awesome Neal thanks for finding Arnel. He does the Journey Legacey Proud. And they were awesome Live.
chasethedragon@many thanks for sharing this very clear video of journey, Mabuhay ka! you're a winner. you captured the emotion of the people who watched they concert in hawaii, you're a winner! Amazing Journey and Arnel Pineda! hoper for your videos of Journey in the future!
My sentiments exactly. I'm glad someone like him breathe new life into my favorite band. Some are so quick to criticize him but unless you can sing and perform at the same level as AP can fronting a legendary band like Journey, you must realize that what he does is no mean feat.
for me it doesnt matter who's the singer, as long as he can give justice to the song thats fine with me... I love journey no matter what. but i would like to thank AP for bringing a new beiginning for JOURNEY they sounded great with arnel....
SP gay powerful tenor voice. AP hunky manly energetic versatile tenor voice. Take your pick!! Both are awesome by the way. Even if they lowered the key, it still sounds great! Besides they are touring so its really hard to maintain that voice and not strain it! SP doesnt even sound the same anymore like his prime! LoL! Still Journey lives on! W/O SP!!
I prefer SP's powerful soaring passionate tenor voice, the smoother rather than harsh stabbing sound. AP really seems to be straining there, like his tongue is stuck.
@Brokered5 Nobody has ever claimed Arnel's voice is superior to SP's. But his style and humbleness, is such a gift to Perry's desire to be the only one recognized and his constant whining. They really are a band now. Not, as Perry projected, a support band to him and his ego.
@1danrobbins Arnel is an insulting "Perry sound-alike" There is nothing humble about one who copies the hardwork and style of other artists. Perry possessed strength and humility, wrote/co-wrote all the songs, a gift to Arnel writing NONE. Perry, such an effortless voice not trained to sound like others, he delivered the songs with real emotion and feeling and Journey b/c huge b/c of him. They are just a shadow of what they used to be, with Arnel seemingly their "product" with Neal's "ego."
@Brokered5 I find little there to disagree with except for Arnel being a "Perry sound-alike". I really feel Arnel's voice is distinctively his. Are there similarities, yes. But, Perry made the decision to do the original break leaving to "retreat to my own life". This is not how a member of a "group" acts. I am sorry he left also, but I am glad they have moved on and still make great music without Perry.
@1danrobbins Too bad Perry didn't make the decision "to do the original break" sooner, all those shows from 78-84, delivering in original key. The voice "is not like the fingers." They were not considerate of that and that " is not how member (s) of a 'group" should act. Hopefully, they w/b more considerate of AP. They have not moved on for their "copycat" copied "note for note" the rerecords to assure sales & the new music is a "tribute band coup" like the insulting rerecords. The End
@Brokered5 If you think that ARNEL is an insult to Steve Perry is your problem since you are the writer of your composition no one nor ARNEL claimed that his voice is superior to SP.They both have their own style and everybody is entittled to their own opinion,thanks to SP that he made this songs a hit but ARNEL is in the band so i don't see why he can't sing this songs.let's just say we all move on ..."Change for the better".
@582sagitarius Steve Perry never had to copy. SP did not make songs hits to be mocked by Arnel who spent most of his life learning to sell himself by sounding like other artists. "Let's justy say" there is no "Change for the better." No one cares about hearing that song anyway, just the "Greatest Hits." Now, let me try again - "The End" .
@StrawberryDoctor My "pick" is SP's powerful beautiful natural voice that sold over 70 millions records as opposed to AP's "hunky manly energetic versatile" copycat 'tenor voice." "Still Journey lives on" with another "Steve Perry sound-alike" and SP too b/c AP has to sing the songs that SP made famous as close to the way SP sang them as possible. When AP starts just singing his own songs then I can tell you if he's awesome. I know SP is.........
It's a system of "in ear" monitoring...instead of having speakers blasting back at the band,each member can have exactly what"mix" they want to hear coming thru the ear pieces-i tried them once,but i think they take a bit of getting used to...you also have to trust the monitor engineer !!!
although i think journey would sell out areans around the world if they have steve perry, i still think arnel is very good!!!! the guy tht said it is a bad sign tht they dropped the key is on marijuanna!!!! who cares they still are awsome
Have they tuned down a half step? Not being critical...many bands do it. Just curious. They didn't do this for Augeri when he was having throat issues, so it's interesting if they are doing it now. Sounds great regardless. I like Arnel and the energy he has brought to their classic sound.
Journey is my favorite band and musical inspiration.......so I can be critical......yes.....they have lowered the songs a half step.....and it is a sign of the beginning of the end of the arnel era......it's sad really.....I have liked every singer they have had for different reasons....arnel is no different..like him too....but I said it months ago...they tour too relentlessly for the vocal range required for their songs...it's abuse..this is the end result...having to cheat and change the keys
I was there at this concert. They were unbelievable. Arnel is the most entertaining performer. Best replacement for Steve Perry that they will ever find. I went to the concert on Maui and both were so spectacular it was rediculous.
how many singers since perry ,have been in the band none of the 4 singers havent done anything in the band,an no success.perry put journey on the map an success.what a joke
they suck they will never get what they got with steve perry,steve perry is journey.neal so desperate for fame he will do anything,all hes doing running the name journey in the ground what a joke they never had ANY SUCCESS SINCE STEVE PERRY THE BAND NEVER BEEN THE SAMNE.they are a joke
AP finally looks 100% comfortable and confident of himself, it shows on his stage presence and the rest of the guys emote a sense of warmth and excitement on their facial expression and the way they beat their musical instruments.
Amazing energy from the band! Who said that they'll be retiring soon?, lol..watching them from this video looks like they're just starting! I love Deen terrorizing the drums, he sure whip them good!
Neal's the dragon slayer! Arnel's golden...Journey rules! Sweet! Thanks chasethedragon....And oh, Hawaii, you're a terrific host! More power to you! God bless you all....
