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.

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.

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

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!

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)

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.

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.

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!!!

"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

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.

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"
