Yeah.. We really are! And I'm grateful to him that THE JOURNEY lives on because of him. I'm a diehard Steve Perry fan, but Arnel has kept the fire burning through thick and thin. He has so much to be so very proud of. Thank you, Arnel! (I love the Philippines, by the way - I go back there every chance I get - beautiful, beautiful people! XXXXX)
I was in the US Navy and stationed in the Philippines from 1986-1992. There was this AMO Band who played at Magsaysay St., in Olangapo City night club and I believed one of the 3 singers ( one female and two male) was Mr Arnel Pineda. At one time I heard one sailor said at the bar. " Damn' they sounds like the Originals." Yes, life is hard but just keep on doing what you think best for you.
I just stumbled across this video. Hearing Arnel so soft spoken yet his voice is so dynamic onstage. He brings soul, life and energy to the music. Amazing stage presence. I'm one of many fans who is grateful he was found and hired by Journey.
I like his long hair also, but we grow with time. He's cute anyway he is. His personality is magnetic. I hope that never goes away. Love this man. Bless him always.
Wow ARNEL you speak very fluent English You are not only a lead singer but also a very humble person that loves to entertain people Keep it up You are my idol and I'm so proud of you representing us every place you go
Very amazing and wonderful person.. He is a high school dropout and yet speaks the English Language fluently... Really unbelievable, Arnel is just a gifted person with a gifted talent... God uses him to inspire others. Don't stop believing. Just dont give up...
Arnel is SOOOOOO AWESOME!! he brought Journey back to life..No one will ever replace Steve Perry's Greatness But Arnel, is damn closest to any other singer they have had!! The Journey fans are lucky the band found you ,you are incredible !!
I grew up with instruments in my hands - and no musician's library is complete without JOURNEY. The band is greater than the sum of its parts - each member lending to the JOURNEY sound/feel/legacy. Steve Perry....what else to say.....amazing. I always loved JOURNEY. But for some reason, when Arnel joined the ranks I think I loved them more...maybe in a different way. I think it's maybe his "story"...his background...HIS journey. My wife is a filipina and we missed their last pass through the DFW area....but will NOT miss again! Rock on, ARNEL PINEDA!
arnel, I have been looking some of your latest concerts, interviews and just about anything to get to know more of you. yes you’re such a humble soul and you’ve worked so hard, belching at the top of your voice just to get to what the song requires. stay humble and God NEVER will forsake nor leave you.Mabuhay ang pinoy
Arnel without you carrying out these wonderful songs there would not be a Journey for any of us you and Steve are amazing singer's we are all blessed Thankyou
Thanks for allowing Mr Pineda into the USA. He is the best. He shook my hand in Richmond VA 2009 tour. Very down to earth. Awesome singer and human being.
I was watching the "Zoo" videos long before Neal contacted Arnel and knew he was a good singer, but never saw Journey with Arnel. I decided this year I will see them live for the first time in 15 years.
So happy Arnel is happy.. He is right about the music being the powerhouse. The writers of the music are no longer there, but the music stands on its own.
it was only now that I encountered the singing of arnel Pineda. kudos to you. so lucky to be a part of a well known American band not only a part, but a lead singer?
I love everything about you Arnel Pineda. Your life story and your whole journey. I'm one of your believers who will never stop believing in your extraordinary talent. God Blessed Arnel Pineda and more success in your life and career. what a wonderful and humble person you are.
We Filipinos are very proud of you Arnel. You are very humble. God bless you. To the Journey Band, we are very grateful for believing and taking in Arnel as one of yours.
Sonia I was disappointed to hear him say his ex-wife. She was so precious and they seemed so right for each other. That’s the down side to having a career that takes you away from home all the time.
Steve Perry made lots of money without singing and touring. Maybe the reasons why He us so kind to Arnel Pineda. But Steve Perry is also a very humble man. How life can change in a blink of an eye. Wow! I have been A big fan of Journey since childhood in and my teenage days in the 1980s. I am now fifty years old I heard of them when I was thirteen--from a radio we listened to growing up in the province of Quezon o this day.
We’re very proud of you Arnel! Even when you’re not yet a part of the Journey band, we’re already proud of your amazing talent. Stay humble. Don’t mind the bashers/ fans of Steve. You have your own style, you are the perfect choice, and most importantly you continue to bring joy to people and give justice to the existence of the Journey band. Thank you US Embassy. The legend of Journey lives on!
The pride of the Philippines for sure, but the USA fans like me also love him! like our own! Thank you Arnel for the years of awesome songs! Terrific interview about singing during his VISA interview., ha! That is pure gold, sounds like something Arnel would do!
God bless America!! God blessed Arnel Pineda! No matter what happens life is beautiful -- Never given up ! Gd luck kbabayan- nice international interviews-
Very humble person.... By the way,keep the much longer hair Mr.Arnel Pineda.... You look like a KPOP idol with that kind of hairdo...lol... Philippines and our countrymen will always be proud of you...
Keep the humility Arnel. May you be blessed on your... Journey. God bless you and keep you! Thank God for not going hungry anymore or looking for a bench on the street to sleep on. Arnel keep looking up, dear brother.
Philippines is the great choice of very talented singers as well... Congratulations to my fellow filipino brother, and to Journey of course they choose right from their new group. Godbless America and Philippines.
yeah yeah yeah bring back that long hair champ you reminded us back in the old days we love journey before we love it even more and we hate to lose you
It was one of those video uploads that Journey took notice off. Noel Gomez deserves a several million pesos as a debt of gratitude for his RUclips uploads of Arnel's performances.
Just saw this interview. 😮 Arnel has gone through alot! Being with the best band ever that was founded in 1972, is worthliving. Arnel being Pinoy and leading d band...is one of God's great miracles. 🙏🎉💕 See for God nothing g is impossible so DON'T STOP BELIEVING IN HIM🙏🙏🙏
I love Arnel’s story how he worked so hard being a musician, never giving up and getting that break that changed his and familys lives bringing them from very poor to no longer having to worry about where they will sleep or when they will eat next. I love seeing good people like Arnel get a huge break like he did. He cares more about being a rockstar to help his family and because he loves music not because he wants 15 exotic cars, 15 vacation homes and a new girl every day. He does great moral things with his wealth it’s just an amazing story and we need more people like Arnel in this world. When I hear a story like Arnel’s it restores my faith in humanity he’s just an absolute beautiful soul.
What a gift Mr. Pineda is!!How is it that he is so so humble and so very talented. So much talent. So much kindness. The love of his country and the people. What were the chances?!?! He slays it every single time! As many as 20 songs in a concert! He is a gift! How lucky are we .. Journey fans for decades! I know his mom is proud of him… what a life’s story he is living! We get to ride along and listen to him belt out beautiful songs💕xx
You would think it would be, since we used them for a base of operations, and they were allies, with the US for decades, not to mention many Filipinos fought and died for the United States, during WWII.
Good for you Arnel. Believe in yourself and keep the music moving forward I personally am looking to hear some new music from Journey new records and tours so keep up the good work!
I play myself and when I play it's only about the music nothing else comes to mind! The band and the audience come together as one. I have been a long time fan of the group. You are the front man of Journey now this is just as much your band now as it was with Steve so run with and do your songs make new records.
Mr Arnel Pineda is now one of the legend in rock and roll history music in the Philippines in America. Truly his voice is outstanding. Good for him he never stop believing from rag to richest. That's what he achieve in his life and deserve it! Keep on rockin' on this free world! Journey is one of my favorite band. I've seen them so many times. From the beginning without Mr Steve Perry yet. Long live Journeys Band. Sir Arnel Pineda is one of the greatest replacement of the band. That's why they still live on playing, performing, touring, and making new album in 2022 yeah. I can't wait to hear and see that new songs. It should be fantastic!
Im masaya na si Arnel Pineda ay bahagi ng paglalakbay sa pagkakaroon ng Neal Schon mahanap Arnel sa youtube salamat Neal at ang banda na hinahayaan si Arnel na bahagi ng banda salamat muli
Great entertainment, luv you guys.I also wanna say hello to all Administration Staffs at U.S.Social Security International & Veterans Benefits Office and Vets. Affairs Administration as well as the Management Staffs of U.S.Embassy, Manila,Pasay and Worldwide.
My middle name is Dalit... From Ilocos region - Philippines... Proud to be Pinoy having an amazing talent like Arnel Pineda who brought HONOR to his country.
I absolutely love Arnel!! I saw those early videos before Schon discovered him. I’ve been a fan of Arnel ever since! He is such a lovely, humble gracious guy!
Japan bombed Pearl Harbor and caused enormous damage not to mention precious lives and yet every single Japanese can go to States without a visa. We Filipinos, my grandfather fought with the Americans and died along with them on the Bataan death march and yet we line up on a long queue rain or shine in front of the US Embassy, dressed properly with all the documents with us only to be denied. Wow, i simply cant believe that Arnel, with just an invitation and a voice to copy someone elses made it to go through. My chipmunk voice for sure will have me arrested instead. Arnel, i must say has intelligently and beautifully answered all her questions. Proud of you kabayan. Youve got something as a person that the rest of the band is keeping you apart from the money you bring. We envy you and at the same feel proud to be of the same color as you. Our country may not be great but a few good men is enough to smile at the end of the day.

You are now officially the longest running vocalist of Journey, we are all proud of you💖
He's already a legend.
Yeah.. We really are! And I'm grateful to him that THE JOURNEY lives on because of him. I'm a diehard Steve Perry fan, but Arnel has kept the fire burning through thick and thin. He has so much to be so very proud of. Thank you, Arnel!

I got to watched him when he was with Yjos band in Shakeys pizza.
@ Osborn Roxas That's a great comment. Thank you.
You're right. Arnel Pineda was the lead singer for the AMO band.
Yes. That’s Arnel Pineda you saw in the band.
@ Osborn, thanks for sharing.
I just stumbled across this video. Hearing Arnel so soft spoken yet his voice is so dynamic onstage.
He brings soul, life and energy to the music. Amazing stage presence. I'm one of many fans who is grateful he was found and hired by Journey.
His filipino accent is so adorable. Its refreshing to hear.
Thank you America, U.S. Embassy in the Philippines and Journey - Don’t Stop Believing on Filipino talents.
Journey was in comatose and then - out of the blue - came Arnel and the rest was history. 👌👌👌
I like his long hair also, but we grow with time. He's cute anyway he is. His personality is magnetic. I hope that never goes away. Love this man. Bless him always.
Bring back your long hair
So humble. Fame never got to him. Stays grounded.
I agree ☝️
Words are not just enough how im so proud of you kabayan.Arnel Pineda! Proud to be Pinoy ❤🇵🇭
