Open Arms - Journey Live 2008, Las Vegas

"When one is chosen to be the new vocalist of a band for the sole reason that he sounded exactly like their former front man, it vaguely reveals mediocrity."
If the sole reason for choosing a new vocalist is to sound exactly like their former front man, then Neal should have gone ahead with Jeremey Hunsicker, Kevin Chalfant or Hugo Valenti who even looks like Perry. Their vocals are closer to Perry's singing style than Pineda's ever could. Notice when Pineda sings, he makes full use of his vibrato to give expression to a song with minimal use of melisma.

"Luck more than talent is probably what made Arnel Pineda hit the big time as he was discovered via You Tube."
Luck is discovering Pineda on Youtube.

Talent is what made Neal watch over 50 videos of Arnel displaying his vocal versatility while covering a variety of rock tunes and eventually deciding to take a chance on a relatively unknown asian singer to be the first to front a legendary American rock band.

"Strutting your wares with a not-so-famous band (a "has been" if you allow me to be harsh) while performing their old hits that were more of a trademark to its original lead singer does not necessarily spell Pinoy pride in my part."
Journey has every right to perform their old hits. Since Pineda is the current frontman, it is expected that he sings those hits.

@13tomabram Hugo Valenti is amazingly close. John Robert Murphy who took over for Hugo in Evolution is more on Pineda's level
