I watched this video 13 years ago and I still come back to watch it today. He interprets Steve Perry's singing with all the intensity of his soul in this beautiful song. And I'm moved to hear this song every time in my life
This is THE MOST INTENSE version of this song I have heard. There is so much emotion in his voice and the vocals are just absolutely perfect. Beautiful! 😘
Yeah I am back in 2023 , its one of thos evideos that you need to keep hearing. Ive likely listened to this cover at least 100 times since I first heard it. Its just excellent!
‘I stand by you’, this is still the best cover of this song on RUclips to date. Others DO sound beautiful and there’s some very talented vocalists singing this, but they miss the grunt, the edge, I don’t know what to call it. Keith has it.
Rem Mamusing no he’s not 😂😂😂 it’s not even a debate. It’s a literal physical, physiological, and musical fact. Arnel is nowhere near this good. You’re a common fan, I’m an educated musician.
I quit alcohol over a year ago and cigarettes about two years ago. I cannot quit this song. I fiend it like a drug and can't stop. I was just in middle of watching a documentary and stopped randomly to watch this again. I must have 100,000 of these views.
I have 2 lung diseases. Asthma at 6 mnths old. Farmers lung from working in a cereal plant. I am speechless at the capacity of air this man can control. Such an incredible voice!!!!!
"keith carmichael / faithfully" at 3:25 will always be my favorite thing ever on youtube. Absolutely amazing. Congratulations on such an amazing voice.
@@jynzl0525 Yes, it is bad of you. This doesn't hold a Candle to Steve Perry. Listen to how forced and strained this guy is. Now listen to Steve's smooth, effortless, clean, and flowing performance.
Wow.........Keith !! blown away .........getting married 1 week tomorrow and this track is our aisle song ! massive respect for such a powerful cover !
Wow!i got goose bumps hearing you sing this song! I've never heard a a journey cover sung live this by anyone....ANYONE!! AND I'VE BEEN IN MUSIC OVER TWENTY YEARS!!
Anybody know where this guy went? Dumped this amazing cover on us and a couple other vids a few years later and disappeared. This is still by far my favorite cover of this song and I return here often.
Aaron Renner I actually befriended him through social media and we met up and jammed together here in Las Vegas a few years back. We did Whole Lotta Love, I played drums. The video is on Facebook somewhere. This dude is no joke, his voice is this good live in person. He formed a tribute band called Foreigners Journey but I haven’t heard of or from him in almost 3 years. Can’t find him on Facebook or instagram. Also, his brother is the inventor of the Carmichael drum throne lol
WTF , if you close your eyes and honestly take in every note and pure sound this song we are blessed with . You ripped through this song with such intensity and pure emotion…. Very well done . Steve Perry would be honoured to hear your version of this classic time piece…. Wow very well done.
Jordan_1997 i Think you better shut up....he's one of the most espressive voices you Will probably hear in your life....if this is a grammy voice i Think you better stop listening to justin bieber...you Will instantly notice the growth of some hairs in your chest but keep calm....you're just becoming a man.
@@deepthikawijayarathne8682 To me his voice is perfect for this cover because it gaves to this song another point of view...in my opinion better than the other covers of this song in youtube...his voice tells me Lots of things but maybe it's Just my point of View.
I was fortunate to see this guy perform a few times years ago. He was active before social media was a thing, so he missed out on that easy publicity. I think if he emerged today or even became more active today, he would become huge. Dude's voice is out of this world, and he should have become a household name.
Steve Perry watched this and thought, "oh wow!" Arnel Pineda saw this and said, "oh, shit." Most may not realize it is hard enough to try to sing like Steve Perry, and even more difficult to do it and still sound uniquely different. The subtle note extensions, the gradual lead-ins and the smooth connection of words are an unmistakable separation while still amazingly complimenting the original in all it's glory, as it should. This would be an "Idol moment", even if on "the Voice". Adam Levine would be laying on the stage begging you to be on his winning team, while Blake would be kicking him trying to get to you. Mark my words. This is a special moment, seize it!
WOW...I became all choked up and teary eyes listening to you. You were born to sing this song and breath life into every word. It's just kick ass greatness. Can't believe you been flying under the radar all this time! AWESOME and AWESTRUCK!
Oh my god that was amazing! You got that all important grit down pat! The strain you hear is supposed to be there. Wonderful. Even added the ' yeah'. Beautiful.
Mr. Carmichael, I just came across this covered and I’m speechless. I didn’t think anyone could match Steve Perry but….you did. You certainly did and it was beautiful.
I know two people who can pull off the vocals of this GREAT song. Steve Perry was one and I just found the other! This was absolutely outstanding man. Kevin
I think u have only 2 cause Steve Perry cant sing this range since he left the band or before, thats why im a fan of singers with 50years old or more with same range and voices
So what lol.. There is opera singers with far greater range than this dude , doesnt mean anything when it comes to a great artist and most importantly songwriter. there is woman that have/had greater range than whitney houston but they still wont reach the pinnacle of artistry that she once had and same goes for steve perry. Your delusional
'Wow!' does not quite cut it. I wish I had the words for the emotions you just evoked in me. One of the best versions I've heard. How awesome are you.😎
HOLY SH!T!!! I knew the video was gonna be good or it wouldn't have been posted but Damn! Never expected that voice to come from him! Had goosebumps at the end!!! This guy is Phenomenal and very passionate!!!
I'M TOTALLY SPEECHLESS! I CRIED FROM START TO FINISH WITH YOUR VOICE AND PERFOMANCE! YOU ARE A GREAT SINGER - VOCALIST MAN, KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK! (y)
Holy crap! Wow! The grit at 4:07 (and elsewhere) is awesome! Did you learn that form a vocal coach? That's the one thing that I can't do- the grit. Awesome!
If I had recorded this, I would've finished the recording, taken my headphones off, got on top of the roof of the building, and with arms stretched out Titanic style, just basked in the glory of being a God. ::throws money at the screen::
That sir, was simply amazing and beautiful, I'm a musician and a Journey's fan for a long time. You did an awesome job, and damn! that tone in your voice it's just mind blowing. :'D
lol all kidding aside, if Arnel leaves JOURNEY and Steve doesn't come back, I think you should contact Neal Schon and audition lol, WOW just INCREDIBLE!!!! Best Cover I have heard of this song on all of RUclips!!!!
the best Cover for Journey's Faithfully ever!!!! friggen period . The passion was there just like steve Perry this song and lyrics sang by you and Perry gives me goosebumps.
Keith Carmichael What makes this second to STR, is, . .the 'W' put on the whoa oh part. Way Perry does w/o the 'W', just oh oh after first whoa is better. I hated that 'w' whoa whoa whoa whoa . Blech

Been here at least 100 times. Still the best cover under 1/2mil hits on youTube. Crazy!
I agree man, I agree to everything you said!!
They don't make good music like this anymore. Sadly this amazing music has been replaced with mostly garbage.
+Mckay «RobloxSpy» Jimbo couldn't agree more!
Same lmao. Prolly viewing this vid for 3 years.
2 years later... yep, still here. :D
This guy needs to become 2021 viral! I watched this video eight years ago and I couldn’t help but smile the whole time. Keith, do you hear me?
If you think this guy needs to become viral... watch this guy... you'll love it

RIGHT!!
this isnt a cover dude. its karaoke.

Why is this not a million yet? I may have listened to this a couple hundred times or so over the years.
Awesome vocals and control.... just amazing!!!!!!!
listening this in 2019, greatest cover ever :)
Im here again .. can't stop listening
From 3:25 is mindboggingly good! Brings tears to my eyes!
+Chris James Bravado has nothing to do with vocals...
+SlowSlowSloth point is he was commending the artist, don't take away from that with a typical know it all comment.
I'm amazed this is 13 years old and I'm hearing it for the first time. This guy is great.
No idea why this has only half a million views. By FAR the best cover of Journey's best song. Awesome job, Keith.

I can't even fathom why this doesn't have more views. Incredible! The best cover.
Oh my god that was amazing! You got that all important grit down pat! The strain you hear is supposed to be there. Wonderful. Even added the ' yeah'. Beautiful.
This is insane, I feel this version just as if Steve was singing, I do hear the difference, just love both versions.
Thanks Mr. Carmichael
Nice, great pipes at the end. Really no idea why people thumb down someone singing to show joy. Sad world.
That sir was hands down the BEST cover of a journey song I've heard! I could listen to that a million times over!
I started to hear it on my laptop and i Told to my girl, this was cover, she didn't belive, and came to check.....Well done!
OMG.....Sick.....What control
WOW!!!! I grew up listening to Journey and basically wore the cassette tape out in 1983. Absolutely amazing Keith. Brought me chills. Well done.
i have played your song 50 times and it is the best version I have ever heard. and your feeling every note. Have a great new year and keep on rockin..
Mr. Carmichael, I just came across this covered and I’m speechless. I didn’t think anyone could match Steve Perry but….you did. You certainly did and it was beautiful.
I believed every second of that note at 3:30. That was STUNNING! Crystal clear and outstanding!
The high pitched voice is cristal clear, best ever.
Best goddamn cover I've heard so far
PRSer Other than his other cover of 'Still They Ride'
His and Amy whitcomb best covers of this.
Sweet Jesus that was amazing. You did Journey proud.
That was the best rendition of this song I have seen here so far.
I know two people who can pull off the vocals of this GREAT song. Steve Perry was one and I just found the other! This was absolutely outstanding man.

Kevin O'Rourke In my opinion arnel journeys new singer can pull of any journey song and sound amazing, if not better than steve perry.
Yes, you are right about that. So now we have three!

Uh... This is great, but Steve Perry's version is legendary.
Best Version by someone not named Steve Perry.

Same here.
There is a guy named Dan Vasc that does an incredible version as well
