This is not about someone trying to replace a rock icon. Arnel's story is a ray of hope for an entire planet full of people who have been as far down as they can be that there is always another chapter to every story. Anyone who's ever tried to sing this material will tell you it's nearly impossible, including Arnel himself. He's humble, kind and extremely talented. I can assure you that if he wasn't worthy of taking this gig it would have never been offered to him. Honestly, I don't think even Steve could do what Arnel is doing now. Singing those high notes with power is a young man's game. I salute Arnel. Don't stop believin' brother!
If Arnel happens to be the original Journey frontman and Steve is the replacement, surely Steve will get all the hates too. People were always like that, dragging other people down even though that person didn't do them any harm.
Saw him twice here in Chile, and have to say that his vocal range its just amazing. The best thing that could happend to journey, cause he really feels the songs.
I couldn't contain myself & get over the excitement when my brother told me that Arnel Pineda is the new singer of Journey. I'm a big fan of Steve Perry & considered him as one of the greatest voices of all time. And if there's any male vocalist worth replacing him, Arnel is THE ONE.
This guy has definately earned his place. Amazing journey for him..and my respect as well. He is very good and is not trying to be Steve P...just a fan who got the oppurtunity to be in his idols shoes..
I think this was the very same set that the US Consul saw before he met Arnel in the embassy the next Monday. The consul who was very amazed of his voice's range and almost Steve Perry-like. If you think about it, he would never have his visa application approved if the consul did not hear him perform in this joint. Destiny? Cool. I'm inspired. Thank you, Arnel!
God really have a good sense of humor .. how ArnelP + Journey’s comes to fruition .. To.. NOEL GOMEZ God made you to bridge the gap between Neil S and AP . You are a blessings to AP♥️😎🇺🇸✌️
Wow what a nice voice,,, you have a wonderful voice that God give you as a Gift Mr Idol Arnel Pineda, I wish that I would meet you in Person. ❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Eto yun video kaya siya na ang lead singer nang Journey ngayon. Masyadong proud kami mga Filipino, Arnel, kaya contiuned success and God Bless you! Thank you for being so humble. Mabuhay!
Desiree is correct - this was one of the videos Schon watched - he had already auditioned two Perry clones Hunsicker and Hugo Vox (Voyager) and rejected them because they were too much like Steve Perry - he wanted someone who could do the old but "carry on the legacy" while taking the band to a new place internationally - he succeeded
I've watched and listened to Hunsicker's and the two frontmen's videos who replaced Steve Perry. Nothing against them but Journey members must have been so 'desperate' to take them on.
Hugo Vox? Sounds like a villian in a Bond movie. If the person who made the comment I am replying to is receiving a notice, isn't it surprising you are getting these things years later?
Arnel Pineda is already a legend in the LIVE BANDS music scene in the Philippines. Well-respected & a natural-born talent. I've never met him personally but my brother & his band did esp. during the AMO Band years & only heard great & overwhelming things about him. I just saw him singing a "HEART" song while passing by this club one time & I was totally blown away. It's true what they say about him. IMPAKTO talaga, 'ika nga. Mala-out of this world baga.
Let's not be too hasty judging this man's future. It's quite unjustifiable the resentment and hostility being inflicted upon this man's being. It seems apparent that he is being persecuted sharing his God's given talent to the world. Arnel has an extraordinary gift and we should be grateful that it is being shared with love and dedication. Steve Perry is irreplaceable, he was the voice behind the fame but he wasn't responsible creating the lyrics that made them legendary. (continue)
Can't wait to watch Journey tour concert here in the Midwest. I've watch Earth, Wind & Fire concert here and definitely I'm not gonna miss the Journey Tour. It would be amazing with Arnel P. as the frontman of this popular band. WOW!!!
He has an amazing voice and anyone who is a hater are jealous of his success. I agree with Jeffery Aquino, he is not trying to be like Steve, if you listen to other songs he sang by other great singers he is not trying to be like them. He is making a living for him self, people should acknowledge his success and quit complaining. If you don't like him then simply don't listen to his music and move on!
"Journey's enjoying a renaissance. Revelations is still in Billboard's top 20 after 7 weeks. The WP, TX show was ALL sold out, a feat unmatched by younger acts. Once Pineda kicked in, the crowd quickly partied like it was 1981. He has the spring-loaded enthusiasm, jumped & raced across the stage like a giddy kid. Pineda was the undeniable focal point. He won the crowd's favor & is also bringing in an entirely new fanbase. He's a killer & indeed a ringer for Perry." Houston Chronicle
Mimicking? Not at all!!! He is versatile. He sings not just journey's songs and delivers them perfectly and sounds like the original. In fact, he can deliver them better in his own expression
Most people don't understand or refuse to understand that what Arnel does is not that easy. I mean, can you believe this guy's throat? Imagine, he's the only vocalist & he sings all these high songs esp. these "HEART" songs WITH EASE. Not putting so much effort & yet the voice leaves such a strong impression. And that, almost every night for like 2-3 hours or more of singing. This guy has a SUPERTHROAT!!!
His voice has been like that eversince since he started & actually even gotten better. While most prominent vocalists couldn't sing their own songs in the original key anymore or their throat is not just at its best anymore, Arnel has honed & mastered & perfected his vocal techniques/skills over the years. And only God-gifted talents with good intentions like him can do that. He is indeed 1 in a billion.
A friend told me she remembered Arnel singing in a bar in HongKong decades ago when Arnel was probably in his 20’s? the bar was always jammed packed and overflowing with audience to watch and listen to him sing. And those American Navy personnel based in the Philippines who used to frequent the bar where Arnel used to sing because they thought he sounded so authentic to them. Even then people recognised his talent.
lupit talaga ni arnel, noon pa alam ko sisikat na yang si arnel pineda 1999 guest sya sa school namin nakita ko talaga na magaling sya, kinanta nya nun eye of the tiger and 1 tagalog song, galing talaga!!!!! bangis!!!
you're really great, journey will be bigger than ever...We're proud to be filipinos from New York, can't wait for your tour here, hoping it will we i Madison Square Garden, Good luck with your success and Journey
From Music Picks: "Arnel Pineda lives his rock star fairytale as he leads Journey. Last Oct. 8, 2008, Arnel Pineda landed in Manila to be reunited with his family & fans. It was a hero's welcome after a very successful world & US tour. USA Today: "Biggest surprise of the summer concerts: the success of Journey who made $21.4 million, fronted by Arnel Pineda" Note: Sources close to JRNY mgnt, said that Arnel's take is roughly $3mil plus ongoing incentives, royalties & bonuses.
I'm really thankful that Arnel is living his dream right now - - as in world-wide - - and JOURNEY!!! It's like every Pinoy rock band's dream to just even perform side by side with their idol. And, yet, Arnel got to be the new lead vocalist. It's about time, kababayan!!! 'Coz the dream of other struggling Pinoy musicicans is living in you right now, too. Itaas mo ang bandila natin.
Plus, I heard you are a good & humble man, Arnel. And good people deserve all the goodness & blessings in this world. This is your good Karma working to the max. So, enjoy it & use it at its fullest & stay as divine as you are. GOD BLESS!!! MaLoY (Pinay singer from Germany) - - kapatid ako ni Ton-Ton - - 'yung kabanda dati nila Joey, Ray, Angie & Albert ng XPO. Hope you still remember them, Arnel. Sinasamba ka ng mga 'to. :)
Omg..this rendetion of faithfully is amazing..your not human if not touch with the feelings and emotion of AP..ill just watch this now...hes really an amazing singer..no wonder why neal schon got impressed...
steve perry is a legend no doubt he really is a very good singer but you know singer is an entertainer so just be entertained... a song is made by inspiration so lets not argue whos better with the other you like the song be inspired....
He's a gifted vocal freak of nature... in a great way.... Zoo sounds good also... Stupid dumb audience didn't know they were in the presence of Rock royalty.. asses... I would have stood up and applauded....
I read that the US Consul who approved Arnel Pineda's visa asked him "hey do you guys perform in Bagaberde"? When I read that, I thought where in the world is Bagaberde? It's only now I answered my own question:) The board behind Pineda flashes the name haha. Yeah it must be some fate for Journey and Arnel Pineda to get together.
Jeb Wright, Classic Rock Revisited (Okl): "At a sold out crowd, Pineda was entertaining & energetic with joy, happiness & passion oozing out of his body. Not since Perry has the band had this strong of a stage presence at the lead spot. One can only hope the long line of lead singers has now come to an end & Pineda remains the lead singer for years to come. Journey has finally found the right mix & are taking the Classic Rock world by storm with sold out gigs & high charting songs"
Eric Lanford, CNN News To Me: "Journey, one of rock's bad ass band is having an Arnel miracle, a true Hollywood cinderella story. Young Arnel were on Manila's mean streets but his mother gave him a gift of faith. Now this fairy tale is the summer's hottest ticket with their SOLD OUT US tour. Arnel's Chile debut had a TV audience of over 25million & over 52K tickets in Texas alone. Arnel completely rejuvenated Journey & the band members are ecstatic & excited w/the thrill from Manila"
There is one thing I don't understand about people who make negative remarks on someone really great and has proven himself already...guys, he is the lead vocalist of Journey now!!!That fact speaks for itself! You are very good Arnel!
Theres a good Filipino singer/intrumentalist sa Shanghai his name is Ghadi. Tingnan nyo pag Hotel California kinanta nya. Also well rounded musician. Good like Arnel. Csablanca will Welcome The Journey with arnel as the Voice
I can't wait to buy my ticket when these guys roll thru California. I grew up listening to Journey, and it will be interesting to see how they play, and I am sure I'll be buying the new album, too. I hope they can find a way to mix in some of Arnel's original material too (he has major label recordings going back to the late 1990's -- check out his page on Wikipedia).
What's funny is that Perry never sounded this good live.. Arnel sounds exactly like the track. I mean if it wasn't for Perry I wouldn't love this song so much. Or any of Journey's hits. I hope all works out for Arnel and he gets the recognition he deserves.
He's more comfortable in a concert venue; probably nervous because he knows he's under the scrutiny of millions of US audience. His first US TV show so understandably he would be nervous, but he did extremely well under the circumstances. Like Jonathan Cain said, he's a "clutch" player...and Journey needs him now to win over the naysayers.
He chose to leave and that's history. Life goes on ... as for Schon & Co. they have chosen the right person for the job -- preserving the heritage and revitalizing their image for the future. Their songs has left memorable moments in our lives so let's embrace the heritage and not dwell upon the NEGATIVITY.
Oye como va, mi ritmo; bueno pa' gozar, mulata. If Santa Cruz was in my neck of the woods, I would be there in a heartbeat to hear that Black Magic voice. Gregg's voice is one of the smoothest voices, but with an edge ... or, as I always say, a cross between Van Morrison, Bob Seger and Ronnie Van Zant. I also view old Journey videos to watch Gregg play the piano! Talented man he is!
Be easy guys on Jimmmytt. Remember we were taught when we were kids to be kind to elderly. He's experiencing second childhood. He's just lonely because no one visits him in the old age home. Poor thing (sighs)!
I think both men are equally amazing people. While it's true that Steve Perry made the face of Journey, I think Arnel has done a great job keeping the music alive. While I prefer to listen to Perry, I don't have a problem listening to Pineda. It's Randy Jackson that I wish would shut up! :)
He's the first Steve replacement that has actually moved me like Perry did! He's incredible. And one hell of a nice guy.
This is not about someone trying to replace a rock icon. Arnel's story is a ray of hope for an entire planet full of people who have been as far down as they can be that there is always another chapter to every story.

That's right the guy has talent and has giving hope that has felt helpless
If Arnel happens to be the original Journey frontman and Steve is the replacement, surely Steve will get all the hates too. People were always like that, dragging other people down even though that person didn't do them any harm.
Eloquently stated ! Thanks !
Best comment ever! ❤🙏🏽
Saw him twice here in Chile, and have to say that his vocal range its just amazing. The best thing that could happend to journey, cause he really feels the songs.
He's amazing, and so was Steve. I personally am used to the Steve sound, but Arnel is amazing. No doubt, and much respect
amazing...his voice live sounds like a recording...wow
I couldn't contain myself & get over the excitement when my brother told me that Arnel Pineda is the new singer of Journey.
I'm a big fan of Steve Perry & considered him as one of the greatest voices of all time. And if there's any male vocalist worth
replacing him, Arnel is THE ONE.
This guy has definately earned his place. Amazing journey for him..and my respect as well. He is very good and is not trying to be Steve P...just a fan who got the oppurtunity to be in his idols shoes..
Arnel, I saw you in Concert with Journey. You deserve to be where you are. Simply amazing.
He is the reviving soul of Journey. Great talent!
Arnel Pineda, you have an amazing smooth voice I have ever heard. I salute you!
This man has an incredible voice. I found this looking for "The Zoo" by the Scorpions, and am glad I did. Fabulous.
Scott D.l
i have that CD. scorpions fan here. cheers
💯👍👍👍

This man on this videos is who saved the ass of journey dame incridible voice....
I've watched and listened to Hunsicker's and the two frontmen's videos who replaced Steve Perry. Nothing against them but Journey members must have been so 'desperate' to take them on.
Neil Schon knows talents with soul !!!
I guess it's because Neal wanted to continue the legacy of Journey band not to be identified as Steve Perry's band.
Hugo Vox? Sounds like a villian in a Bond movie.
If the person who made the comment I am replying to is receiving a notice, isn't it surprising you are getting these things years later?
nice!! i like it, the voice is so powerful, but sound so sweet!!!

Thank you so very Much Arnel

Poland 🇵🇱 loves Arnel
talented, talented and well deserved:)
he has pipes
arnel gives me the chills..great voice
Arnel is simply amazing. English is not his first language.
I think he isnt singing so much as he is imitating Perry's voice. Even more amazing.
Wow, ma, that was real good! Great cover!
I wonder what he's thinking when he sang this song. I wish it's me....:)And I'll be yours too, Arnel...FAITHFULLY. Crazy na talaga ako sa 'yo.

Amazing... wow. Great cover
saw you on TV this morning, your have a great story and a great voice, keep up all the great work your doing!
Congrats to him. He deserves Journey. What a great voice he'll bring to the band.
There is one thing I don't understand about people who make negative remarks on someone really great and has proven himself already...guys, he is the lead vocalist of Journey now!!!That fact speaks for itself! You are very good Arnel!
Arnel you bring such a beautiful spirit to journey equally as steve did i think you were a perfect fit rasovitsky
Arnel is good voice like a ferry tail
Napakalupet talaga

Theres a good Filipino singer/intrumentalist sa Shanghai his name is Ghadi. Tingnan nyo pag Hotel California kinanta nya. Also well rounded musician. Good like Arnel. Csablanca will Welcome The Journey with arnel as the Voice
Arnel created a new spirit of journey. A modernized one
Credit to the one who requested this song that time, it's because this is the song that change arnel life 🥰
I can't wait to buy my ticket when these guys roll thru California. I grew up listening to Journey, and it will be interesting to see how they play, and I am sure I'll be buying the new album, too. I hope they can find a way to mix in some of Arnel's original material too (he has major label recordings going back to the late 1990's -- check out his page on Wikipedia).
This guy can sing!!
Much better than most of the big acts out there these days.
What's funny is that Perry never sounded this good live.. Arnel sounds exactly like the track. I mean if it wasn't for Perry I wouldn't love this song so much. Or any of Journey's hits. I hope all works out for Arnel and he gets the recognition he deserves.
Its 2019 but im still here watching him😍🤘🤘
Me too
He's more comfortable in a concert venue; probably nervous because he knows he's under the scrutiny of millions of US audience. His first US TV show so understandably he would be nervous, but he did extremely well under the circumstances. Like Jonathan Cain said, he's a "clutch" player...and Journey needs him now to win over the naysayers.
Arnel is a great rock singer. Nice cover
He chose to leave and that's history. Life goes on ... as for Schon & Co. they have chosen the right person for the job -- preserving the heritage and revitalizing their image for the future. Their songs has left memorable moments in our lives so let's embrace the heritage and not dwell upon the NEGATIVITY.
And small minds!!
Decades ago WAS a great SP-J excitement!
NOW w/Arnel mania, It's an absolute merriment.
Here we are mesmerized to Arnel-Journey addiction.
We get inspired with Arnel's dream coming to fruition.
The uplifting musical aura they radiate & amplify.
Keep our dreams and goals alive, they signify.
We unite as one for this cool celebration.
Life with Arnel/J is a sizzlin' sensation.
Hey all Let's Rock on here, there.
Whoop it we will everywhere!
ROCK ON!!
Oye como va, mi ritmo; bueno pa' gozar, mulata.
If Santa Cruz was in my neck of the woods, I would be there in a heartbeat to hear that Black Magic voice. Gregg's voice is one of the smoothest voices, but with an edge ... or, as I always say, a cross between Van Morrison, Bob Seger and Ronnie Van Zant. I also view old Journey videos to watch Gregg play the piano! Talented man he is!
Be easy guys on Jimmmytt. Remember we were taught when we were kids to be kind to elderly. He's experiencing second childhood. He's just lonely because no one visits him in the old age home. Poor thing (sighs)!
pure power! pure voice!
Hello I’m from the future, I don’t know if you can see this, but I wonder if you made this comment before he became journeys singer
bwahahah,that was a good one,xemopiex7a.
I think both men are equally amazing people. While it's true that Steve Perry made the face of Journey, I think Arnel has done a great job keeping the music alive. While I prefer to listen to Perry, I don't have a problem listening to Pineda. It's Randy Jackson that I wish would shut up! :)
Arnel is just awesome!!!
oooh, looks like someone just got pwned. good one Brittany0414! I enjoyed this song as much as you did. Hope he does well in the future. Rock on
