ARNEL PINEDA should be awarded and recognized by the Music Industry atleast "Vocalist of the Year" for being legendary vacalist of Journey for almost 14 years with the band existed since 70's, or 80's.
Cdot Rey Arnel had his own band The Zoo. He was given the platform to show case his talent for that masses and he took it. He is now a big deal in Asia and the west. Not only because he can sing but because he had a heart. To all the haters he just kills them with kindness. Love that guy!
@@Meowgicnified yeah he's been homeless since his mom died and joined multiple bands just to keep his family and himself alive and now he's the lead singer in journey
Got to see def lepeord and journey they both wagered awesome 😎 rock on def lepeord and journey it was very loud and it was overwhelming for me but I had fun at the def lepeord and journey concert
For everyone hating Arnel, let me tell you this. Watch Arnel's documentary. He's 41 when he became the lead singer ( Steve perry at 42 is singing in a much lower key. Watch his live in 1991) and afterwards they are having a concert ALMOST EVERYDAY. He's been really worn out. Imagine, for a decade they've been performing. Arnel now is in his 50 ( 53 to be precise) and he's still rockin. Just think what can he do more if he was in his prime as a Journey. Watch his documentary.
He does a great job, but he is NOT as good as Perry. He does have a similar signature, which most people think of as sounds the same as. I am a fan, but technically, no one touches Perry.
Karaoke is super popular in the Philippines. I love cultures that enjoy singing in public, without shame or embarrassment or worrying about whether or not they’re “good enough”, the land of singers is a great way to phrase it
Thank you for the recognition...the land of singers.😊 We just sing our problems away.😃 We don't know about exchange rates...recession. As long as we have Karaoke, we're good. Hahaha!😂
This guy wasn’t put on the stage to sing like Steve. They put him there to sing like Arnel. And that’s the way it always will be His voice just happens to make it work for them. Plus this guy sounds amazing.
Steve perry can’t sing the way he used to that’s why he never want to sing with the band anymore and that’s a sad truth . Way to go Arnel you are such a great singer and a great person no one can be compared to you on your own way . Love ❤️ you always Arnel 🥰😍💗💕❤️
I just love Arnel Pineda! His voice is nothing I have ever heard before. It's his own unique beautiful voice. Steve Perry has his own and Arnel also has his. I could listen to Arnel all the time! ❤
I really like Arnel's voice and they chose him for their songs. So he was hand picked. What an honor for him. He started from nothing as a homeless man singing. His documentary is inspiring.
For those “no emotion” comments: Arnel was not just singing this song, he was living it. He was starting a family when he joined Journey and been away from them while touring and singing this song. Everytime I see him sing this song, his young family, pursuing a huge dream and sacrifice are all in mind. In this concert in Manila 2009, his wife was in the audience carrying their very young son in her arms. The video of Don’t Stop Believin’ in the documentary Everyman’s Journey (not the DSB video in YT) captured in his wife’s face how surreal those moments were. Then their daughter came along on his 4th year with Journey. Now, watch him again. If you don’t see and feel the emotion, oh well, keep it to yourself. 🙂
I watched the whole Journey Live in Houston online and I watched Journey Live in Manila if you close your eyes and let the music go in to your heart and soul you realize that their music speaks to your soul regardless who the singer is. I will always love Steve Perry and I also love Arnel Pineda
Yes i do closed my eyes, every time i listined to,and feel it the sounds. Am very emotional type. Love Journey Band and Of course my kababayan Arnel Pineda. Thanks for sharing!
It’s 2022 and everytime I get to see this video of Arnel singing Faithfully in their concert live in Manila 2009, I still feel that all hairs on my body are rising! My goodness, Arnel, you are such a gifted soul! Such a powerful, huge voice, soaring over those instruments! Journey is still very lucky to have you. You are such a rare gem!
@@2112musician gee, you're all over the comments with your witty replies. Musicman, huh.. is that another ultra witty reference to the lyrics of this song?
This man spreads hope and faith by just being the wonderful soul that he is..he's every bit as good vocally as Steve Perry..his passion and hard working Creed is inspiring and deserves acknowledgment and appreciation. I'm so very grateful that he was found and given the platform to show the world that love is real
Music Man your entitled to your opinion. But in a sing off Arnel wins hands down..Steve doesn't have the pipes he had then or even 10 years ago..I'm just glad the music is still being performed on a high level for people to enjoy and not pick at like a scab..but some people just gotta be negative regardless..
My deep respects to Arnel Pineda. He made his way, has charisma, feelings while he sings and has a great voice. By the way....Journey is one of my favorite groups.
Fun Fact: One reason he joined Journey is because his covers of Journey songs were so good, and he also loved Journey (duh), so Journey offered him a chance and he took it.
This is out of this world. Arnel's voice what's that? I haven't heard such an amazing voice um my entire life. Love him, his voice....he is great!!!!! The first time I gear Journey was Ruth Arnel as the main voice, then searched for Journey wirh Steve. It was good, but wirh Arnel is great, great, great!!!!!
Setting aside comments about Appreciations, clout, comparison and all just for once. Imagine what if you are in his shoes, now focusing about your feelings. You must have been hella proud for your country, friends, family, yourself and for GOD. You're happy indeed right? Which for a fellow human, we should also desire it to be felt by others. God has a way for all of us. Trust is key. Lastly, he shows to be gateful with regards to the opportunity so I'm really proud and happy kababayan here. Idol Arnel!
Yes Steve was great! But this guy is great as well. And his story to stardom is even greater! Found on RUclips. And when he was discovered he didn't even know how good he was. And his English wasn't the best. Give Arnel credit! He has put in the hard work. He is good enough that it keeps Journey alive and to be honest just as entertaining. Don't knock him because he isn't Steve. Acknowledge him for the talent that he has. And where he came from and what it took to get where he is at now!
John Smith Steve's shoes are far too big to reach it's a miracle they even found one who has reached his range and hit those notes. He's not trying to be "I am Steve Perry" here.
You are right BC. They really did. I remember the very first time they played on [US] national tv with Arnel, some daytime talk show I have already forgotten, and they played this song. When they finished they audience was star struck and the host (I remember it was a female) was ready to give him a BJ. Even two of the original members walked over to him and essentially bowed to him. I looked at my wife and told her the reason they were bowing to him is that this guy (Arnel) has just resurrected their careers ($$$) for another 10 - 15 years. I would have bowed too. Jackpot indeed!
2:54 - 3:00 the way he sings between the words "love" and "again" make my heart swell and make me melt. So much fucking passion and love. I can't contain it.♥️
I was lucky enough to hear him sing live in the late 80's every week when he was with Ammo Band. At the time they covered many bands of that time and he was amazing. I was not surprised he was finally discovered for the rest of the world to enjoy... to bad it took over 20 years!
Good for you! I haven't seen him/nor I've been able to watch him in the internet that time, (besides we really didn't have a computer then, you know how tough life is in the Phils.) It's just pretty sad to think that in the Phils, no matter how talented you are and with that "golden voice" - it's not really easy to be IN the circle, right away, maybe one in a million years before you could be "noticed" (same thing what happened to Charice Pempengco during the early years of her career, joining different singing contests, ). Usually the TV networks, judges would look for the "good looking mestizo/mestiza/ white skin"
So proud to arnel. Feels like crying. I like ur version much. Thank you journey for loving arnel and be part of ur band. Love love love...Mabuhay kayo.
@Valarie palacios hey 👋 there I got to see Def Leppard and journey in Augest 25 2018 both where awesome 😎 but it was very loud and overwhelming for me but I had fun at the Def Leppard and journey. Both of them are my favorite band in the world 🌎 Dude.
Phenomenal. Extraordinary. There just aren't enough superlatives to describe Arnel's vocal strengths. And he hits those high notes near then end without any falsetto. He's perfect for these kinds of songs.
Karaoke singer? You realize he and his band won a competition that pitted all the top bands in Asia? How is that a “karaoke singer”? Haters are too uneducated/unhinged.
Strange that this is said by someone who calls himself by, and let's use the real term, Hitlerjugend or in English Hitler Youth. So as well as your avatar says enough about that. Either you are a kid who doesn't know better and if otherwise change your avatar and name or I will report you. This is a fair gentlemen warning.
Im a fan..but because of the crisis, able to stay home and got the chance of watching again...boy, am s senior citizen now...my happy pill listening classic songs..of the band i grew up with....soo proud of him...
I am still listening to Journey. Love Arnel and Steve Perry and the rest of the instrumentalists that make up this phenomenal group. They have certainly stood the test of time.
Hindi ka talaga nkkasawa pakinggan Arnel! Pg narinig Kita nkka seriously feelings ko sa Mga love life ko experience esp this Time- - Pandemic Stil goin around but hopping soon will end „for the journey band esp you my dear arnel stay blessed and you will forever for us“ - Pray always - that will never fade your Talent amazing !
This performance literally made me cry. A testament of how music can affects your soul and touches one’s emotions. Brilliantly and wonderfully done!!! 🥰
Disse tudo, há lugares onde não coloco esta música pois derrete a gente, é uma apoteose de emoção, transborda do palco e sacode vc inteiro...longa vida ao Journey e Arnel ❤
those who disliked this performance are not totally music lover.. c'mon guys Arnel is not Steve & Steve is not Arnel. Heart not Hatred, Love not insecurity, aren't you entertained anyways?:) peace brothers.. for me it's a Big Yes! :)
❤❤❤l love u so much ur voices idol galing mo tlaga kya ala aqng pinanalampas na mga live mo concert nkaalis ng stress love u idol staysafe & godbless u always ❤❤❤goodluck🎉
Can all of you stop complaining about who Journey sucks without Steve? Sure he was great, but Arnel is not trying to be any better than him and is about the closest you can get to stoves vocals. Just enjoy that Journey has continued to perform and carry on despite Steve leaving.
And could you imagine how it'd sound for Steve, even in his prime, to sing some of the stuff from Revelation or Eclipse. He'd hit the notes, but it'd be weak and it'd not be the same. Of course, it'd still be good just different. Does that make it bad? No. So why does everyone complain so much the other way around.
He may not be tall, he may not be from the US, and he may not speak good English, but he has a big heart, he is Filipino, and his singing does not reflect any difference in language. His story is just amazing. I salute him standing for what he has accomplished. Continue to make people sing again Arnel your mother is looking at you from heaven and very happy.
Who cares if he is tall or not? Who cares if he is from the USA or not? Who cares if he does not speak English well? These are silly measurements of a person.
One of the few, if not the only band where I respect the OG and the replacement equally! Both amazing vocalists and thank goodness the legacy has been able to continue!
Hello Shenee, how're you doing? Your comments caught my attention and that is why I am reaching out to you. Your fan love for me warms my heart, Thank you! It's nice meeting you here.
He's not Steve but Steve said he loves Arnel!..stop hating on this guy, Steve loyalists! he has an amazing voice and a great replacement that saved Journey!
A lot of passion, hardwork and talent in Arnel. Great voice! Humble man too. There should not be any bias against him based on race or nationality. Even Steve Perry has spoken good about Arnel to keep Journey music alive. Respect Steve and keep supporting Arnel. He deserves everything he worked hard to achieve! God bless
Amzing I too never believed that there is any person on the whole planet who could replace Steve,however what a voice! Arnel did a great job and one can tell whole band happy he is onboard bringing new life to them
Guys music doesn't have colors it's a unique voice came from heart of a human being.let me tell you this..all racism PHILIPPINES is the Land of singers and all Filipino shouting loud and proud...
Amazing voice kuya arnel. Sana dumami pa katulad nyo nila charice, Efren Bata And Idol Manny Pacquiao 💪 kayo ang nag pa kilala sa buong mundo sa larangan ng talento ng mga pilipino.. Salute sainyo especially sayo kuya arnel
I read these comments and shake my head. Let's appreciate the songs and the way Arnel sings them. Also, understand that all the people on here saying that Arnel sounds better than Steve is going a little too far. Just remember that Steve wrote this song and all the songs that were hits. I keep saying that singing a song is the easy part with someone who has talent. Writing the songs is what makes you a legend.
@@popesatriani Because none of them sounded as close to Steve as Arnel has. If you weren't a huge fan of Journey or Steve Perry you wouldn't really question it. I can listen to Arnel and say he does well but for me, it's the passion for the song that he doesn't have.
What a great song! Closed my eyes for a little bit and tears came out... Arnel is super talented and he deserves to be where he is at. You can easily tell that this dude gave everything by singing this song!
Mr. Common sense I like Deen’s version much better than Arnel’s. He’s very talented drummer/singer/songwriter. Sang in Journey as well as Journey Through Time. ruclips.net/video/s55Py6a5YQs/видео.html
@@rafaelaarundell9417 not grater than Steve Perry he's something extreme but arnel is very good handling those songs. His rasp and bit of a vibrato gives a different taste.
"Journey" know that Ariel Pineda is well suits & capable into the position. Change happens, but for the *musician's spirit..., still, the🎹🎸🎤 *show must go on!!
Mall of Asia is an amazing place. The first time I was there I was surprised (to say the least) to see a hockey game taking place between the Philippines team and the Canada team. Who won? The Philippines team. I then learned that both teams were comprised of mostly expats from US, Canada and Europe, plus a handful of Filipinos. Imagine that... hockey in the Philippines.
@@devall1743 yes there is!, just like crindell said, Mall of Asia got ice for the ice skaters to play and to practice for sports . Only at Mall of Asia

This is probably my favorite live performance from any band of all time! One of the best songs of all time sung by Arnel in front of his Kababayans!!! It always makes me smile!!!

Me too! I’m crazy about Journey and I love Arnel’s story! His voice is just off the charts!! WOW. God bless this group, every single member. They deserve to be exactly where they’re at and Arnell with them. It’s a wonderful wonderful story. Praise God 💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌷🌸🌷🌸🌷🌸🌷🌸🌷🌸🌷🌸 All those beautiful flowers are for the whole group of Journey. Love you guys!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️🤍💜💜💜💜
Arnel is an amazing vocalist, no question!! He has incredible range and tone in his voice! Thank God Journey checked out RUclips to find him, and thank God that Arnel uploaded videos of him! Who knows...it very well could be fate that brought Arnel and Journey together! Regardless...Arnel Pineda is an amazing vocalist!!
Goose bumps through the whole song. Journey's always been one of my all-time favorite bands. Arnel, you're one incredibly talented singer. Glad you helped to keep Journey alive all these years.
As a young filipino music fan, I didn't know that one of my fellow filipino became the vocalist of that band even tho when I was a child, I'm listening during afternoon all the time of their songs. Now that I am old enough, I discovered he's a filipino through my dad. He told me that he is a filipino😯 Our country really produces great singers and I'm proud of it. Looking forward for more Pinoy singers to bloom worldwide because we have many normal people here that really is great at singing that my foreign friends thought they are pro singers when we walk through Malls with karaokes.
I love this man as the lead singer of Journey. Adam Lambert has filled the shoes of Freddie Mercury in Queen. Arnel Pineda does an excellent job for Journey. If not for him then these songs would never be sung live to the caliber again. Thank you, Arnel and Journey for carrying the torch that Steve Perry lit.
3 yrs ago at hershey this man came out side gate coverd up and gave us all front row tickets didnt no it was him till they came on stage for not being steve u cant tell amazing he kills live performances
Oh man im lucky i found this in youtube, the singer got passion in singing he delivered this song on different level, oh man i love this. crowd must be so lucky they witnessed a timeless event. amazing
My God... The multiple "eargasms' this performance gives me is beyond comprehension. I've already listened to this live masterpiece an unhealthy amount of times. These guys are true professionals in their fields and they came to SLAY big time! Arnel's talent is unbelievable and the emotion and passion he brings to each song is undeniably amazing. Close your eyes and you will be mesmerized. This is my favorite Journey line up ever. Neal is the man! He is so underrated. Jon on keyboards is pure magic and those intros he does is crazy. Ross is always super cool. And damn Deen... He came to SLAY! Love Steve Smith, but Deen brings power and sexiness to the band and the way he hits that drum kit blows me away, while doing a great job singing vocals too. And please... Stop the hate and comparisons. Steve will always be Steve and will always be a part of Journey. And Arnel is Arnel and he brought new life and an exciting resurgence to this iconic band. Please let's all just appreciate the fact that these guys love what they do and want to keep playing until they can't no more. Like they all say... The show must go on and Arnel helped do just that. He's phenomenal and also brings international appeal. His fellow Filipinos completely love and support him. I'm also a proud Filipina and have been a huge Journey fan since the early 80's. I'm 55 and I'm so thankful that I still get to enjoy all the magic that is Journey. Steve and Arnel both respect one another and we should take their lead. Arnel loves Steve and the band and what a blessing that he is now continuing Steve's legacy. I'm sure Steve is extremely proud. And I love happy endings. Such a heartwarming story about Arnel. A true Cinderella story for the ages and love it when good things happen to good people. Journey saved Arnel, but in all honesty, it was Arnel who saved Journey as they are enjoying a worldwide resurgence and love seeing this diehard band enjoying what they love and that's playing amazing music! Enjoy them while they're still alive. I know I am and will continue to love and support them until the end. Rock on Journey! 🔥❤️😎🤟
Dude definitely has it. We all know what Steve did for the band with his legendary voice but Arnel is more then capable. Just close your eyes and pretend your there. It’s pure magic.

This man could've easily made his own band but instead wants to carry out the legacy of his favorite band. Give credit where it is due. Much respect
Cdot Rey Arnel had his own band The Zoo.
He was given the platform to show case his talent for that masses and he took it.
He is now a big deal in Asia and the west.
Not only because he can sing but because he had a heart.

He was singing to survive he was homeless

He's not young he's 50 yrs old.
Having a long hair makes you look young, lol
He’s not underrated you just don’t know music.
Neal schone is definitely not underrated, One of the most melodic players there is.
1:49 Christ, the "I'm forever yours, faithfully" gives me absolute chills.
GOOSEBUMPS I LOVE THIS MAN ❤❤❤❤❤🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
I'm downloading it in case it gets deleted. YT police, pls don't come and arrest me. 😡
2:54 - 3:00 the way he sings between the words "love" and "again" make my heart swell and make me melt. So much fucking passion and love. I can't contain it.♥️
Oh for sure!!!!! Soooo much passion wow!
Agree
I replay this part many times its so beautiful
love the vibes
It's different when you are performing at your hometown. The energy and passion just doubles up.
He's not Steve, but, I'll say, what a pure voice. Wow.
Totally!!
Arnel is such a talent, not everyone can sing Black Dog without sounding like crap
Agreed James! Arnel Rocks, but my heart will always be with Steve Perry : )
I can’t tell their voices apart
@@tabithasampson1206 hey 👋 there I have a question for you have you ever been to a concert I’m just wondering ok 👌 dude lol 😂
This song will never die. You picked the right guy. I wish Arnel is coming back.
I’m mesmerized by his ability to not only do the song justice but in subtle ways make it his own in the best ways. What a guy!
umm no hes no steve perry
@@BOB12349307then why are you here?😂😂
@@BOB12349307 holy meat rider steve doesn’t know you lmao
Closest Perry voice on this planet. Thanks for keeping Journey’s music alive.
I was lucky enough to hear him sing live in the late 80's every week when he was with Ammo Band. At the time they covered many bands of that time and he was amazing. I was not surprised he was finally discovered for the rest of the world to enjoy... to bad it took over 20 years!
Did you mean Arnel? You saw him singing in late 80's? Where?
@@donlabang Yes Arnel.... Olongapo City. I believe the club was called California Jam around 1989.
@@Galloway737 wow. Amazing. Good to know that u still recognize him
Better late than never, he' s now a multi millionaire.
Good for you! I haven't seen him/nor I've been able to watch him in the internet that time, (besides we really didn't have a computer then, you know how tough life is in the Phils.)
It's just pretty sad to think that in the Phils, no matter how talented you are and with that "golden voice" - it's not really easy to be IN the circle, right away, maybe one in a million years before you could be "noticed" (same thing what happened to Charice Pempengco during the early years of her career, joining different singing contests, ). Usually the TV networks, judges would look for the "good looking mestizo/mestiza/ white skin"
still crying when I watch this. im so emotional with this song, arnel's voice is haunting. deeply moving.
It really is!!! Amazing! It makes me tear up too. Loved the 80’s!
😍🤩
Me too, my deceased gf loved this song so much
This was possibly Arnel's best performance and to do it for Manila must have been very special.
Who’s listening to Journey’s songs right now? Also very proud to be a Filipino 🇵🇭
I am and do daily. Arnel is a truly great singer and a humble person

So proud to arnel. Feels like crying. I like ur version much. Thank you journey for loving arnel and be part of ur band. Love love love...Mabuhay kayo.
Never compare Arnel to any singer out there he's Arnel and that is his singing voice, already well crafted before joining Journey Band.
EXACTLY.... That's his sound what ever song he sings of 80's band.
He's not a Steve Perry wanna be.heard his song "Too Satisfied"from Zoology Album,omg you will be really satisfied.he composed the song too.
The fact that’s he’s not Steve makes it even more amazing!
If u dont get chills from this version you arent a real human....
I'm Klingon. muSHa'ghachwIj vIlegh!
I know gives me chills
@Valarie palacios hey 👋 there I got to see Def Leppard and journey in Augest 25
2018 both where awesome 😎 but it was very loud and overwhelming for me but
I had fun at the Def Leppard and journey. Both of them are my favorite band in the world 🌎
Dude.
Arnel is great, but the original recording is far, far superior to this.
I'm not a real human I'm from Mars
Ang husay kumanta ang taas pamatay ang kanta at tono pambira ang ganyan kagaling s pagkanta yan c arnel pineda isang proudpinoy the best!
Phenomenal. Extraordinary. There just aren't enough superlatives to describe Arnel's vocal strengths. And he hits those high notes near then end without any falsetto. He's perfect for these kinds of songs.
Yes..perfect for him the way he sing this tune faithfully grabe ang impact sa tao nkkakilabot amazing!!
Karaoke singer? You realize he and his band won a competition that pitted all the top bands in Asia? How is that a “karaoke singer”? Haters are too uneducated/unhinged.
only weak singers use falsetto to cover up their short comings.
Proud Filipino half blood and actually he was the perfect replacement for Steve .. Arnel had the best and fit voice for Journey
Strange that this is said by someone who calls himself by, and let's use the real term, Hitlerjugend or in English Hitler Youth.
So as well as your avatar says enough about that.
Either you are a kid who doesn't know better and if otherwise change your avatar and name or I will report you.
This is a fair gentlemen warning.

I am still listening to Journey. Love Arnel and Steve Perry and the rest of the instrumentalists that make up this phenomenal group. They have certainly stood the test of time.
Always LOVE Journey.... LOVE STEVE PERRY, I think Steve has had some Health issues.... ALWAYS A FAN EVEN IN 2020
Awesome performance of a classic!
Hindi ka talaga nkkasawa pakinggan Arnel! Pg narinig Kita nkka seriously feelings ko sa Mga love life ko experience esp this Time-

Pray always - that will never fade your Talent amazing !
No matter what they said.. you brought back the "journey" to the Journey!
arnel's energy and passion is beyond this universe..sang it beautifully... makes me cry...
This performance literally made me cry. A testament of how music can affects your soul and touches one’s emotions. Brilliantly and wonderfully done!!! 🥰
Disse tudo, há lugares onde não coloco esta música pois derrete a gente, é uma apoteose de emoção, transborda do palco e sacode vc inteiro...longa vida ao Journey e Arnel ❤
This guy's voice is EPIC. Nothing like Steve Perry, just in a league of his own. He shouldn't even get any hate at all.
@@2112musician What the hell are you talking about? This dude is legit singing with his own voice. I in no way hear a single similarly to Steve Perry.
Amen to that brother
@@UltraSaiyan419 if you really hear no similarity then you’re lying to yourself. Not the same, but similar
@@UltraSaiyan419Lol 😅yer kidding right?
Definitely a slight difference in voice but so insanely close to Steve's it's unreal
The freakin sound guy f'in NAILED it for this show!!! WOW
Agreed! Sounds is amazing! And that's everything to the mood / tone
those who disliked this performance are not totally music lover.. c'mon guys Arnel is not Steve & Steve is not Arnel. Heart not Hatred, Love not insecurity, aren't you entertained anyways?:) peace brothers.. for me it's a Big Yes! :)
❤❤❤l love u so much ur voices idol galing mo tlaga kya ala aqng pinanalampas na mga live mo concert nkaalis ng stress love u idol staysafe & godbless u always ❤❤❤goodluck🎉
Can all of you stop complaining about who Journey sucks without Steve? Sure he was great, but Arnel is not trying to be any better than him and is about the closest you can get to stoves vocals. Just enjoy that Journey has continued to perform and carry on despite Steve leaving.
agreed!
True Steve cant perform again so stop coplaining
And could you imagine how it'd sound for Steve, even in his prime, to sing some of the stuff from Revelation or Eclipse. He'd hit the notes, but it'd be weak and it'd not be the same. Of course, it'd still be good just different. Does that make it bad? No. So why does everyone complain so much the other way around.
Right! I'm agree
Right!
He may not be tall, he may not be from the US, and he may not speak good English, but he has a big heart, he is Filipino, and his singing does not reflect any difference in language. His story is just amazing. I salute him standing for what he has accomplished. Continue to make people sing again Arnel your mother is looking at you from heaven and very happy.
Who cares if he is tall or not? Who cares if he is from the USA or not? Who cares if he does not speak English well? These are silly measurements of a person.
He speaks great English
Arnel got a seriously great pair of pipes, he doesn't have to be a carbon copy of Steve Perry.
Movie
True...he is not Steve but he sounds good...Steve IS the authentic Journey sound but this guy is good in a different way
One of the few, if not the only band where I respect the OG and the replacement equally! Both amazing vocalists and thank goodness the legacy has been able to continue!
Hello Shenee,
how're you doing?
Your comments caught my attention
and that is why I am reaching out to you.
Your fan love for me warms my heart, Thank you!
It's nice meeting you here.
2022 in 5 hours and this song still UNFAILINGLY gives me the goosebumps. the power!!
I agree he added power. Another dimension which was not there before. Different but just as good IMHO.
He's not Steve but Steve said he loves Arnel!..stop hating on this guy, Steve loyalists! he has an amazing voice and a great replacement that saved Journey!
I love their Manila video concert. So clear and sounds so good❣️❣️❣️. Long live journey and thank you for such a beautiful music❣️❣️❣️😍😍😍😇😇😇
Philippines 🇵🇭 is the land of the great singers! And you cant deny it.
I know i’m not the only one that comes back to this every once in awhile
#Facts
A lot of passion, hardwork and talent in Arnel. Great voice! Humble man too. There should not be any bias against him based on race or nationality. Even Steve Perry has spoken good about Arnel to keep Journey music alive. Respect Steve and keep supporting Arnel. He deserves everything he worked hard to achieve! God bless
3:41 Listen to the filipino crowd sing in rhythm, gold wow they're like backup singers of the band 👍👍👍
they did the same in Ed Sheeran concert, the biggest impromptu choir he said..
That's what I've noticed too, the crowd sung in harmony.
we all know majority of them filipino can sing..
❤️
wow superb, Arnel with the band what a great concert
an extra ordinary and amazing Arnel
God bless
and keep safe and healthy
Amzing I too never believed that there is any person on the whole planet who could replace Steve,however what a voice! Arnel did a great job and one can tell whole band happy he is onboard bringing new life to them
Guys music doesn't have colors it's a unique voice came from heart of a human being.let me tell you this..all racism PHILIPPINES is the Land of singers and all Filipino shouting loud and proud...
Yes No color ,I enjoy Music love Musis,,Art of Music😘
Its the music and not the singer. Having new talented vocalist that brings art to music just realizes the real meaning of the word JOURNEY.
It has to be the song and the singer.
Amazing voice kuya arnel. Sana dumami pa katulad nyo nila charice, Efren Bata And Idol Manny Pacquiao 💪 kayo ang nag pa kilala sa buong mundo sa larangan ng talento ng mga pilipino.. Salute sainyo especially sayo kuya arnel
I read these comments and shake my head. Let's appreciate the songs and the way Arnel sings them. Also, understand that all the people on here saying that Arnel sounds better than Steve is going a little too far. Just remember that Steve wrote this song and all the songs that were hits. I keep saying that singing a song is the easy part with someone who has talent. Writing the songs is what makes you a legend.
The question is, if its just the song then how come the other replacements wasn't able to revive journey like Arnel did?
@@popesatriani Because none of them sounded as close to Steve as Arnel has. If you weren't a huge fan of Journey or Steve Perry you wouldn't really question it. I can listen to Arnel and say he does well but for me, it's the passion for the song that he doesn't have.
Jonathan Cain composed this song.(solo)
@@aracelidelapaz6548 You are correct. That was the only song on the Frontiers album that he didn't have credit for.
One of the greatest rock ballads of all time.
What a great song! Closed my eyes for a little bit and tears came out... Arnel is super talented and he deserves to be where he is at. You can easily tell that this dude gave everything by singing this song!
My no.1 idol journey it's very amazing ferformance ever ❤️❤️❤️

@@lucidam7722 can you sing?
Mr. Common sense I like Deen’s version much better than Arnel’s. He’s very talented drummer/singer/songwriter. Sang in Journey as well as Journey Through Time. ruclips.net/video/s55Py6a5YQs/видео.html
If he was there before Steve, All those haters will say he's awsome
facts..
all arnel haters can't even carry a note haha
Yes it's true...arnel pinedas performance is better than the former soloist of this band👌👏👏👏
@@rafaelaarundell9417 not grater than Steve Perry he's something extreme but arnel is very good handling those songs. His rasp and bit of a vibrato gives a different taste.
But he wasn't.
Arnel is a great singer with a great voice, Journey have a new air with him. Excellence performance
Arnel has a great voice . We went for a concert to San Francisco. Was a great experience .We loved it.❤️❤️❤️
Faithful fan of Arnel here. Thanks for keeping the love and your music alive. Take care of yourself and your voice like what Tom Jones has been doing.
WOW arnel sings very good. some artist dont sing high notes live but arnel pineda sings like a BOSS!!!!!!!!!
.wow beautiful voice arnel my inspiration l love
"Journey" know that Ariel Pineda is well suits & capable into the position. Change happens, but for the *musician's spirit..., still, the🎹🎸🎤 *show must go on!!
Mall of Asia is an amazing place. The first time I was there I was surprised (to say the least) to see a hockey game taking place between the Philippines team and the Canada team. Who won? The Philippines team. I then learned that both teams were comprised of mostly expats from US, Canada and Europe, plus a handful of Filipinos. Imagine that... hockey in the Philippines.
There ain't no ice here boi
The Filipinos were used to keep the bench warm!😂😂😂
@@devall1743 yes there is!, just like crindell said, Mall of Asia got ice for the ice skaters to play and to practice for sports . Only at Mall of Asia

This is probably my favorite live performance from any band of all time! One of the best songs of all time sung by Arnel in front of his Kababayans!!! It always makes me smile!!!
What a fantastic voice, so pure and magically flows with the band.
Oh wow he is just getting better and better. He has gotten so good that this version of his voice is almost operatic with hint of a tenor.

Arnel is an amazing vocalist, no question!! He has incredible range and tone in his voice! Thank God Journey checked out RUclips to find him, and thank God that Arnel uploaded videos of him! Who knows...it very well could be fate that brought Arnel and Journey together! Regardless...Arnel Pineda is an amazing vocalist!!
Goose bumps through the whole song. Journey's always been one of my all-time favorite bands. Arnel, you're one incredibly talented singer. Glad you helped to keep Journey alive all these years.
amazing..high note your vioce arnel..im so pround of you..stay safe god bless every day and your family.we love you!
As a young filipino music fan, I didn't know that one of my fellow filipino became the vocalist of that band even tho when I was a child, I'm listening during afternoon all the time of their songs. Now that I am old enough, I discovered he's a filipino through my dad. He told me that he is a filipino😯 Our country really produces great singers and I'm proud of it. Looking forward for more Pinoy singers to bloom worldwide because we have many normal people here that really is great at singing that my foreign friends thought they are pro singers when we walk through Malls with karaokes.
Same hha
naka ka proud maging pilipino...we love u journey also my kababayan
I love this man as the lead singer of Journey. Adam Lambert has filled the shoes of Freddie Mercury in Queen. Arnel Pineda does an excellent job for Journey. If not for him then these songs would never be sung live to the caliber again. Thank you, Arnel and Journey for carrying the torch that Steve Perry lit.
Sara n
Phenomenal. Absolutely Phenomenal.
Now Arnel is going down in history as one of the greatest singers ever and he deserves it because he save Journey BIG time...and we all know it.
It's 2021 listening to his interpretation Arnel made this song his own 'tagos puso' proud to be Filipino!💕😍😍😍
Sobrang tagos sa puso nkkakilabot sa sobrang galing nya sa pagkanta grabe parang ako ung nappagod sa taas ng boses nya hahaha..
Amazing voice! Arnel brings a richness to this song that I've never heard before!
Incomparable! Is this your favorite song?
3 yrs ago at hershey this man came out side gate coverd up and gave us all front row tickets didnt no it was him till they came on stage for not being steve u cant tell amazing he kills live performances
Oh man im lucky i found this in youtube, the singer got passion in singing he delivered this song on different level, oh man i love this. crowd must be so lucky they witnessed a timeless event. amazing
100000000000000000%%%%%%%
My God... The multiple "eargasms' this performance gives me is beyond comprehension. I've already listened to this live masterpiece an unhealthy amount of times. These guys are true professionals in their fields and they came to SLAY big time! Arnel's talent is unbelievable and the emotion and passion he brings to each song is undeniably amazing. Close your eyes and you will be mesmerized. This is my favorite Journey line up ever. Neal is the man! He is so underrated. Jon on keyboards is pure magic and those intros he does is crazy. Ross is always super cool. And damn Deen... He came to SLAY! Love Steve Smith, but Deen brings power and sexiness to the band and the way he hits that drum kit blows me away, while doing a great job singing vocals too.
And please... Stop the hate and comparisons. Steve will always be Steve and will always be a part of Journey. And Arnel is Arnel and he brought new life and an exciting resurgence to this iconic band. Please let's all just appreciate the fact that these guys love what they do and want to keep playing until they can't no more. Like they all say... The show must go on and Arnel helped do just that. He's phenomenal and also brings international appeal. His fellow Filipinos completely love and support him. I'm also a proud Filipina and have been a huge Journey fan since the early 80's. I'm 55 and I'm so thankful that I still get to enjoy all the magic that is Journey. Steve and Arnel both respect one another and we should take their lead. Arnel loves Steve and the band and what a blessing that he is now continuing Steve's legacy. I'm sure Steve is extremely proud. And I love happy endings. Such a heartwarming story about Arnel. A true Cinderella story for the ages and love it when good things happen to good people. Journey saved Arnel, but in all honesty, it was Arnel who saved Journey as they are enjoying a worldwide resurgence and love seeing this diehard band enjoying what they love and that's playing amazing music! Enjoy them while they're still alive. I know I am and will continue to love and support them until the end. Rock on Journey! 🔥❤️😎🤟
