100%. Saw them August ‘24 and Deen was by far the superior vocalist and should be their primary vocalist. Arnel was ok but sounded weak, sloppy, and didn’t have control. Deen totally outshined him.
Drummers singing deserve more credit. Compressed diaphragm being seated, being able to hold a note while physically bouncing all over the place has got to be challenging
@@jaykroska3845 Guitar and drums are the easiest to sing and play together for me. Bass is where it gets harder because I’m usually playing something to counter the melody.
Stop comparing them, they're both amazing and they're both in journey, there's no need to compare, just say "I love journey becoz they have Steve, Arnel, and deen.". My Goodness! People!
I´m a Drummer, and Deen was always one of my North. Since those all times where I used to see the HighPerformance Drumming VHS, Cacophony and Marty´s Friedman albums. And he also Sing like a fucking damm pro singer. Good bless you Deen !!!!!!
Deceptively difficult song to sing. Been slowing down the speed to get the details of various versions including several of Perry live....turns out this guy right here is by far the best, most natural controlled and precise compared to all other versions.
They did asked him but he declined, Deen was committed to his band that had just did a record and they were gonna go out on tour besides I don't think he wanted to go back to the drama? maybe?
I miss Steve Perry, but Deen Castronovo is by far the best vocalist that has tried to fill his shoes. The should get Steve Smith back on drums and put Deen in the spotlight
Deen has stated a few times that he does not want to be a frontman and would like to stay behind the drums. It’s true though that he would be the perfect Journey singer next to SP, vocal wise, if he’d even try.
I agree, his the best replacement for steve perry's voice..but come on dude, being a frontman is not only having a spectacular voice..you need also a charisma to audience and vocal stamina..he really respect and amazed what arnel does in the stage..why you guys always looking that is not there, still living in the past and why not appreciate and enjoy the present..
@@chadlong9614 it's quite boring dude , ..no movements in the stage, no audience contact..the fans will miss the frontman having fun with them ..journey doesnt's work that way, it's not their style..maybe in other bands, it will work..
Lying beside you, here in the dark Feeling your heartbeat with mine Softly you whisper, you're so sincere How could our love be so blind? We sailed on together We drifted apart And here you are, by my side So now I come to you with open arms Nothing to hide, believe what I say So here I am, with open arms Hoping you'll see what your love means to me Open arms Living without you, living alone This empty house seems so cold Wanting to hold you Wanting you near How much I wanted you home But now that you've come back Turned night into day I need you to stay So now I come to you with open arms Nothing to hide, believe what I say So here I am, with open arms Hoping you'll see what your love means to me Open arms
Please guys don't give him a hard time. He is putting his best into it . I watch the video . An I don't see much wrong with it . He's just working his voice to hard to please us . Give him a break . Let him rest ,lf that is what he needs. I think his performance is AWESOME. ❤
Stay you have been part of Journey (you are Journey) for 17 years - we saw you in Evansville IN and you had a great performance ✌🏻 hope you come back!!! Some of the performance was over powered from the one videotaping this video not you!!! You are a true American Dream come true!!! -Lisa S 🤘🏼
Deen is solid drummer and vocalist! As with anything, liking a drummer and their playing style is a personal preference. Deen is a punchy physical drummer.

I learned that whenever I have a high to hit, buckling my knees helps get me on top of it. Deen has the luxury striking a cymbal or drum to get himself there. So glad he beat his addiction. He was great on the Journey through time tour with Schon and Rolie as he nailed all of Perry's parts.

Deen Castronovo is one of the Best Drummer / Vocalist of all times! God Bless You Deen...
Absolutely!
Phenomenal drummer. His work with polish metal band Wild Dogs showed his amazing skills...
Yes, and then Roger Taylor and Phil Collins.
And Tony Macalpine, CD Premonition
An institution itself, I love his drumming but his voice is unbelievable, love you Deen!!
Deen IS the vocalist Journey needs.

That's true❤
Drummers singing deserve more credit. Compressed diaphragm being seated, being able to hold a note while physically bouncing all over the place has got to be challenging
I agree! And both legs are on bass as well as his arms going at the same time. Don't know hiw he does it, but I love it!
To me it seems easier to sing while drumming
@@jaykroska3845 Guitar and drums are the easiest to sing and play together for me. Bass is where it gets harder because I’m usually playing something to counter the melody.
@@jaykroska3845 Solely based on meter? Sure. Breath support and sustain? Not easier at all. It’s like singing while running a marathon.
I'm callin straight bullshit , not a chance in hell this dude is pulling this off without a lot of help , I'll leave it at that !
To be able to sit down, diaphragm compacted, deliver such a perfect tone and play drums. The guy is unbelievable!
Agreed
One of the very few guys in the world who actually pulls off a great rendition of Steve.
Deen does not get the credit he deserves for his talent.....it's way over the top talent!
Love Deen's voice! Can't believe how much he is blessed! Awesome drummer & can sing , not just sing but that guy CAN SING!
I would love to see Dean as lead singer I would have no problem filling in as their Drummer!🤘🎙🥁
Stop comparing them, they're both amazing and they're both in journey, there's no need to compare, just say "I love journey becoz they have Steve, Arnel, and deen.". My Goodness! People!
He sounds amazing!! Wow! Didn't even miss a tone while playing the drums! Truly gifted artist
What a Monster Vocalist Deen Castronovo
incredible drummer and vocalist! ...bloody awesome!
Castronovo is a beast on the drums and a wonderful singer he kills it every time
After Steve he’s the best Journey singer in my book
Wow, this is amazing 😍 I'm just stunned. I never heard Deen singing before.
Nice
Check out his band Revolution Saints. Unbelievable
Look up journey through time videos, thank me later
Deen is absolute brilliant
❤ Dean❤️ is the best👍👍👍👍It's a double attack of drums🥁 and singing🎤🙆♀️💓. I want to listen to it forever😆👍👍👍❤️
Deen sounds like the old journey I love! If I can’t see Steve again then hands down Deen will check that box! Deen is freaking amazing!
As much as I love Steve Perry and always will, Deen delivered perhaps the best performances ever on Faithfully and Open Arms
100%
Not quite...but pretty damn close
Great performance but definitely not better or close.
@@stumeister5507😂
Wow, that was so vocally perfect. No autotune, no lip syncing. Just pure vocal talent
THIS SINGER REALLY BRINGS NEW LIFE TO JOURNEYS BEAUTIFUL SONGS WOW RECORD THIS SINGER,NOT RECORDING DEENS VOICE WOULD BE TRAGIC,FANS DESERVE THIS
Deen is out of this world talented. My idol.
I´m a Drummer, and Deen was always one of my North. Since those all times where I used to see the HighPerformance Drumming VHS, Cacophony and Marty´s Friedman albums. And he also Sing like a fucking damm pro singer. Good bless you Deen !!!!!!
A beast on the skins
Too difficult to perform like that, you're the man! Best drummer and performer.. From Philippines with love..
#respect❤
Phenomenal voice
Deceptively difficult song to sing. Been slowing down the speed to get the details of various versions including several of Perry live....turns out this guy right here is by far the best, most natural controlled and precise compared to all other versions.
Yes and while sitting and playing drums... unreal....
Hands down, Deen is the best. And as noted by others, he does it effortlessly while sitting & moving all around the drum kit!
Better than Perry, or best of the other versions besides Perry? NO ONE can out do Perry at his prime.
@@Alexandersupertramp9875 yes, Perry was natural, effortless best ever.. or close.. deen is amazing anyway
Not even remotely close to Steve Perry...
Just talent overload this guy♥️
Get Deen back in Journey!
Yeesss bring back
They should have stuck with the Journey in time lineup , with Deen on Vocals
They did asked him but he declined, Deen was committed to his band that had just did a record and they were gonna go out on tour besides I don't think he wanted to go back to the drama? maybe?
@Justin Gittings he's under contract with the Dead Daisies sadly
He is with Neal and Greg Rollie. Search Journey Through time Exclusive. He is awesome !
Bless you Deen , You have talent in vocals and drums!!!! Best at both of all times!!!!
Deen brings and sells the raw and powerful emotion... He makes you really FEEL the music
I know this is a video about Deen but good grief can we not admit Jonathan Cain is one of the greatest pianist of all times? Dude is solid gold.
I didn't believe he was singing, Deen is a Beast!!!💪💪🇪🇸🇪🇸
Deen has perfect voice for journey,so powerful 👍🏼👍🏼 and while playing drum??mind blowing...insaneeeee 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼❤️
So much talent!
I love it so much when you sing , and miss you bro , I feel those songs in my soul thank you Sir
Deen is the Best vocalist and Drummer that Journey has had to date!
This guy is UNREAL!
Wow!!! Always will be a huge fan
amazing just amazing hitting those notes and banging those drums.
Man Dean sounds great

pst.... just change hands - but christ he total class!
Lol..Incredibly talented
@@frankkrank3970
38 years old and you just taught me this. Hahaha
@@timetowakeup6302 you are part of the club now Time To!
Lying beside you, here in the dark
Feeling your heartbeat with mine
Softly you whisper, you're so sincere
How could our love be so blind?
We sailed on together
We drifted apart
And here you are, by my side
So now I come to you with open arms
Nothing to hide, believe what I say
So here I am, with open arms
Hoping you'll see what your love means to me
Open arms
Living without you, living alone
This empty house seems so cold
Wanting to hold you
Wanting you near
How much I wanted you home
But now that you've come back
Turned night into day
I need you to stay
So now I come to you with open arms
Nothing to hide, believe what I say
So here I am, with open arms
Hoping you'll see what your love means to me
Open arms
He is my favorite drummer for the group. So much power all the time and the vocals!!!! I love you, Deeno!
Please guys don't give him a hard time. He is putting his best into it . I watch the video . An I don't see much wrong with it . He's just working his voice to hard to please us . Give him a break . Let him rest ,lf that is what he needs. I think his performance is AWESOME. ❤
What a voice. Unbelievable.
I am a Dean Fan!! If he ever comes to Pittsburgh Im for sure going to see him!!! What a fucking talent!! He should be a house hold name...
Just watch him sing "Maggie May" by Rod Stewart if you haven't seen it yet.
Deen Castronovo, simplemente magistral!
I love him ❤

NOV 21,2024,,,, PLAYING DRUMS WHILE SINGIN HIGH NOTES ITS VERY IMPRESSIVO BRAVOOO BRABOOOOOO MAGNIFICOOOOOO

-Amazing!!!
Totally agree ,wish he was there front man
Dude has got to be a impersonator or he just has to be greatest voice to along with Steve Perry,
Castronovo sounds like perry and Castronovo even do some crazy things with hes voice....
I learned that whenever I have a high to hit, buckling my knees helps get me on top of it. Deen has the luxury striking a cymbal or drum to get himself there. So glad he beat his addiction. He was great on the Journey through time tour with Schon and Rolie as he nailed all of Perry's parts.
The luxury? 🤷🏻♀️
El no puede ser el vocalista x .q sta en las drogas y no puede cantar muy de seguido,le cuesta,se cansa .
Wow 💪💪💪💪💪
