I have always been a fan of Journey and Steve Perry's but I have become an even bigger fan of Arnel Pineda! He has the voice of and angel, a beautiful, humble spirit and his background story is such an inspiriation. I wish people would quit comparing him to SP all the time. He does an excellent job staying true to the "classic" Journey sound but has a quality & tone that is all his own. Let go of the "ghost of Christmas past" and enjoy the new version of Journey. Arnel voice is a gift - to us!
Why can't the Perry lovers move on? This guy has a wonderful voice and I, for one, am glad they found him. Can you imagine if Schon hadn't of found him? What a waste to think he would never of been discovered and we would never of been able to listen to this wonderful voice.
Every body who comments on Arnel videos they either hate him or love him. They comment on how "Arnel is the greatest thing to happen to this band since SP left the band", but they always forget to mention how great Augeri was.
@xodia7: Fair enough... but I am sure you know many passes and clean ups are done when recording at a studio for a music album. For a likely shortly rehearsed one-off chance to sing this song (as a birthday wish granted)... I'd say it is better... esp. if you were there to see/hear it live. Even "unbelievers" were converted that evening.
i'm a big fan of journey before but now that Arnel P is the Lead VOX for JOURNEY, i'm a bigger fan now. Happy Bday Arnel. more power to you. Make the NOYPI proud
thank you Mr. Bombon... I am in heaven hearing this two songs.... wish I could have been there, but your vids is awesome, so clear.... Ap's voice is so tender, soulful, yet powerful.... haaay
many thx madylv. Given the audience responses the two nights at AC, it is a winner ending from now on. Let's hope they include these on their upcoming CD release!
OK Steve can no longer sing in his youth, but I I like both and Arnel continuous live Steve through the songs and he has the talent to get to sings Steve Perry
@wesnnewt I agree Augueri Was a good singer they Never let me down when at live show's I saw Augueri 4 times and everytime he was great. Thanks SA if for all you did to keep Journey alive for the fans.
I like the voice of AP and the total harmony of the band. without the piano playing of Jon Cain, guitars of Neal and Ross and the drums beating of Deen, then there's no Journey.
Arnel wsn't brought into the group to sound like Steve perry, he was brought in to sing Journey songs with the passion and range that Perry had. ... there's nothing like Steve Perry from 1978 but if I can't have that, I have no problem listening to this!
why you say that? of course he's older, but I believe Chris was stating all the memories Steve left us with and all the wonderful singing he has already done.
THIS IS VERY GOOD BECAUSE Arnel is being and always compared to PERRY. Which means, ARNEL can compete SP even at Perrys Prime. Why? Arnel has the soulful Masculine/tenor voice and Perry has the feminine/tenor type of voice. IF THEY DUET TOGETHER? Who will prevails? watch clearly and observe...hehehe definitely it will be arnels strong voice and perry will just be a background. THATS A FACT. we call it timbre in music.
That was Steve's first song that Neal and he wrote together, it was about his desire to be accepted by the fans, letting him live his dream I can't believe that they would sing that, Arnel is a good singer but its Steve's song.

It's like watching them in person. Your video is so great and I can see their facial expressions. Thank you for sharing.
I agree with you 100% Tamara. Arnel is awesome.
Very nice, Very Impressive but... I will Always LOVE Steve Perry's voice over any other! But Arnel has done one hell of a job in his stead!
Thanks to Arnel we can go to see Journey live again!!!!

Goosebumps
Thanks for sharing. Gracias!
OK Steve can no longer sing in his youth, but I I like both and Arnel continuous live Steve through the songs and he has the talent to get to sings Steve Perry
goosebumps overload! arnel's sooooo hot!!!
GBS!!! - Goose Bumps Surplus. Hello Ross.
What a version of AP... Wow... this is far more better version than SP... So emotional
AMEN!
@wesnnewt I agree Augueri Was a good singer they Never let me down when at live show's I saw Augueri 4 times and everytime he was great. Thanks SA if for all you did to keep Journey alive for the fans.
Like a boss. Nailed it.
I like the voice of AP and the total harmony of the band. without the piano playing of Jon Cain, guitars of Neal and Ross and the drums beating of Deen, then there's no Journey.

why you say that? of course he's older, but I believe Chris was stating all the memories Steve left us with and all the wonderful singing he has already done.
How about this .... Steve Perry and Arnel on vocals, Neal on guitar and Jon Cain on keyboards for one song on the next Journey CD??
love this song by journey liked his voice than perry
awesome♥♥♥
THIS IS VERY GOOD BECAUSE Arnel is being and always compared to PERRY. Which means, ARNEL can compete SP even at Perrys Prime. Why?

OMG!
Arnel is a cool cat!
Shi+!!!! He nails it again!! Journey Rock even better!!
wow
this is a first!
Sue: I think that was me who also yelled "Happy Birthday" after you! Hehehe...
be nice to hear more of 'why can't this night' but oh well...
You got the word right "was" beyond great. no can't sing like he used to. :( Just move on. it is 2013!
That was Steve's first song that Neal and he wrote together, it was about his desire to be accepted by the fans, letting him live his dream I can't believe that they would sing that, Arnel is a good singer but its Steve's song.
Thx SoulMan. Likewise, I think he (Perry) would be too!
its a step lower from the original but its damn extra ordinary!
cause he's trying to make the song his not how steve used to sing it
Arnel is OK, but Journey will always be Perry, his voice was beyond great.
I don't know guys he comes awful close to the old Journey . As we say in the south he's cooking with peanut oil on this .
Sorry to say this Chris.. but SP can't sing like he used to.
Lei? Is that you?
i can actually sing it better than arnel so give me that,
What a version of AP... Wow... this is far more better version than SP... So emotional
