People give this lead singer so much flack! He truly doesn’t deserve it. Okay, okay he isn’t Steve Perry. I get that. However, he isn’t trying to take Steve’s place. He is who HE IS. He is a damn good singer and he introduces a young generation to Journey’s music. That is a good thing. I am sure that Steve, himself, would agree with that! Peace.
Very few bands have pulled off switching singers, you guys did.,. Was very close to original, but had potential to take you to a much higher level. Unfortunately, your Narcissist Guitarist who I’m assuming is the boss, squashed it all.. FYI , guitarist is very mediocre, It’s a Singer reliant band, everything behind the singer is pretty much accompany chords. Lead guitar is just a version of the melody. Joe Perry , made these songs relevant . Not saying. The band was no less involved., there’s just no band personalities 4:26
Ross and steve need to be back in that band. I love dean. Killer drummer. But there's just too much infighting and weirdness now on this band and lawsuits. It's too bad they're pissing on their own legacy.
I'm a big Journey fan since the 1980's. Let's remember these guys aren't in their 30's or 40's anymore. I still love them and love Arnel. Saw the Philly concert tonight.
I have to remind myself that the majority of comments on youtube are not kind or educated. Just people all over the world contributing to hate speak. If you dont agree then read your own post. If you want to know more about something look it up for yourself.
Schon provided personal studio live videos, during mandatory covid intiation. Which within many, playing his very nice floyd equipped strats. Runs, with his patented sustained pauses, same level effort as any live arena. I mentioned your strats are stellar, approx 20-mins later, legacy neil responded in return with "Love-em". Goes above beyond providing just pre written tracts within live shows. Pre show, also post- show, neil exceeds expectations.
At the time that Arnel was hired, I had a Filipina girlfriend. The people over there were losing their minds over this happening for a homeboy. She's been gone a few years but I remember us listening to Journey, and me showing her different songs. I'm a metal head, so they aren't my favorites, but they have some good songs.
@joekoehn98, SP does not have the Arnel Pineda quality. SP was good, though. SP receives income from journey, thanks to Arnel for keeping the legacy.Though Arnel is obviously tired, but he has surpassed SP
He keeps touching his in-ear monitors-it could be that he can’t hear well. Yes, it is bad not being able to hit the notes. Other nights he sings great. He is in his mid-50s and performs night after night.
He's A JOKE And Sounds Horrible sounds like he's screaming not pronouncing the lyrics correctly and he's not even singing to the beat of the music he will never feel or sound like Steve Perry He's ruining Journey reputation and the songs that Steve Perry sing s and made hits doing it .. Journey is not Journey without Steve Perry or His Amazing Voice John And Neil You Guys Should Be Ashamed of Yourself's ...
Happy for you comment..thank you...Aging is the key about singing Live..but their performance on stage..the energy still have... All members are Amazing.Love Journey Band and their Songs ❤️
@@lizar5341 You asked me why? When we heard a Journey song, its a high notes song that needs a powerful voice. And you think Perry can still hit those high notes he recorded 4-decade ago?
Anyone complaining about Arnels voices is not only uneducated but never saw them live. A live concert recorded on a phone doesn't translate to crisp clear sound. You also hear the crowds pathetic attempt a singing along which makes it sound like Arnel. Try again trolls
Can we stop with calling them journey or a cover band. Neal the way he dresses looks like a bag man coming out of an alley and arnell isn’t even close to steve perry so let’s call them the stray cat alley garage band orchestra. no steve, no Ross , no steve smith. Sorry ownership of the journey name shouldn’t belong to the journey “imposters”. 😂😂😂😂😂
Arnels voice is shot, holy cow. I saw them in Knoxville last year. He could still hit those high notes. Journey needs to take a brake from touring, to give arnel some time to get bearings. Still a legendary band though.
@ultimatecouponlady, then why did you not pay SP to perform there? SP would not,will not could not, because he can not anymore. why don't you give SP the income he gets everytime Arnel Pineda sings and performs with the journey?
DAMN......sad how on a whole, it sounds pretty good, but then he tries to get those high ones, and it ruins it all. No dissrespect to him, not easy thing to pull off. Why do ya think SP isn't there? He can't pull it off either.
They are hurting his voice and rebirth of the band with constant touring to pay for Neal Schon's divorces. Can't blame them, they need the $$ and do it while they are still healthy. Not a given.
I would take Journey back in 1983 over this…. Arnel has been there long enough that you would think he would have the phrasing down, I guess not. Also pick up the tempo for god sakes. Example from 1981 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Q7f5za5tz3w.htmlsi=W64MYpeQDk-Y60sg
