That's true. But what people overlook, Arnel wasn't just some guy doing amateur gigs --he has been performing for 25 years in the band circuit in Manila and Hong Kong --doing it for a living since he was 15. He's got all the experience as a frontman and developed the skills and the moves over decades before the opportune moment when fate and destiny collided when Neal Schon saw that youtube video --Arnel was more than ready and had the talent to front a band like Journey. Cream rises. Mind boggling to think that a singer of that caliber couldnt make it in his own country. Real recognize real as they say and Journey saw that they had a diamond in the rough.

Arnel is practically a national hero in the Philippines. My daughter's two best friends from college are Filipina. They day after I saw Journey live in 2011, I was on phone with my daughter telling her about the concert. She asked me how the new lead singer was, and in the background I heard her roommate asking excitedly "Are you talking about the guy from Journey?" Filipinos have a very strong sense of National pride, and they all adore their countrymen who become famous.

Perry would have not lasted the whole 25 songs, Maybe 12 max 30 years ago. Who, in his right mind would just decide to disappear at the height of his career and literally leave his band in limbo for a decade? When he reappeared in 1998, he backed out and never to return again just before their scheduled concert tour, voice issues? Maybe, just like Augeri, he damaged his vocal chords. All we know is, he just did sporadic small gigs, recordings, & guestings as a solo artist.

Through it all, Steve will always go down as being one of the very best male vocalist of a band. Whatever he is doing these days, I wish him the greatest success! Period! Peace.

You all need to watch and listen to Steve's speech as they were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. His speech was awesome and he graciously acknowledged Arnel, told him he loved him and thanked him for keeping Journey's legacy alive. These two amazing men have such mutual respect and admiration for each other. Steve obviously approves of Arnel being Journey's lead singer. Hell he's already been doing it for 15 years and counting. So please... Enough with the hate and comparisons already. Do you think Steve would approve of the hate and bashing? Of course not! It's getting old and boring. We should all be happy and blessed that we can still continue to enjoy the amazing legacy and new sounds of Journey with Arnel at the helm. The band loves and believes in him so we all should too. Arnel is so talented in his own right and continues to bring that soulful, emotional and legacy Journey sound that Neal and Jon were looking for for the longest time. Let's just enjoy listening and watching these guys and their iconic music while they're still alive. They will forever be legends. Don't ever stop believing...Long live Journey!

My God... The multiple "eargasms' this performance gives me is beyond comprehension. I've already listened to this live masterpiece an unhealthy amount of times. These guys are true professionals in their fields and they came to SLAY big time! Arnel's talent is unbelievable and the emotion and passion he brings to each song is undeniably amazing. Close your eyes and you will be mesmerized. He has great stage presence and commands it and gets the crowd going and feeling every vibe. This is my favorite Journey line up ever. Neal is the man! He is so underrated. Jon on keyboards is pure magic and those intros he does is crazy. Ross is always super cool. And damn Deen... He came to SLAY! Love Steve Smith, but Deen brings power and sexiness to the band and the way he hits that drum kit blows me away, while doing a great job singing vocals too. And please... Stop the hate and comparisons. Steve will always be Steve and will always be a part of Journey. And Arnel is Arnel and he brought new life and an exciting resurgence to this iconic band. Please let's all just appreciate the fact that these guys love what they do and want to keep playing until they can't no more. Like they all say... The show must go on and Arnel helped do just that. He's phenomenal and also brings international appeal. His fellow Filipinos completely love and support him. I'm also a proud Filipina and have been a huge Journey fan since the early 80's. I'm 55 and I'm so thankful that I still get to enjoy all the magic that is Journey. Steve and Arnel both respect one another and we should take their lead. Arnel loves Steve and the band and what a blessing that he is now continuing Steve's legacy. I'm sure Steve is extremely proud. And I love happy endings. Such a heartwarming story about Arnel. A true Cinderella story for the ages and love it when good things happen to good people. And come on man, if Neal and Jon believe in him then who are we to judge and complain? They knew what they were doing choosing AP. Journey saved Arnel, but in all honesty, it was Arnel who saved Journey as they are enjoying a worldwide resurgence and love seeing this diehard band enjoying what they love and that's playing amazing music! Enjoy them while they're still alive. I know I am and will continue to love and support them until the end. Rock on Journey! Don't ever stop believing... 🔥❤️😎🤟

There is a difference when ythese guys are acting live to be recorded into a DVD, or if they re acting for a show, in a tour where they will need to deliver every single night, during a long period. Of course, in the second scenario, they do not reach nor deliver everything they have. They need to save their vocals for a long journey of shows. On the first case scenario, when live act but for professional recording, they rest more before the show(s) , and they have more time to rest after the show until the next live "tour". This means they can deliver almost all, even if they need more time to rest to recover volcals. You can see that on the live recording of Journey in Houston 81, for example. And in this example, as well, on this video. But you can check other shows, recorded by people on amateur cams, ,with both singers, in which they couldn't deliver all that much. Its normal!

Steven Stambaugh you’re not the biggest Steve Perry fan, you’re the Arnel Journey fan. It’s nothing to do with bias about Steve Perry being the best rock singer on this planet because he is.

But the best on the planet? You say that like there's no question to it. Bruce Dickinson.......Freddie Mercury......bunch of guys come to mind through the years that are just as legendary for their vocals as Perry.....if not more so. As for Arnel.....he does fantastic. And he wouldn't have to do it, were Perry to get off his ass and actually tour. But he won't.....

danimal097521 Deen Castronovo sings in the original key and is much better than Arnel vocally. Steve Perry is back with an album in 2018 and he’s still sounding amazing. I’m a new fan. There is a KZbin competition between Steve Perry and Freddie Mercury and SP blows him away. FM was the greatest showman but Steve Perry is the best live singer that existed - didn’t even use backing tracks according to Randy Jackson who toured with Journey. RJ says himself that Steve Perry and Robert Plant are the best rock singers in history. There are many rock singers who sound amazing on the album but couldn’t reproduce that quality singing live. Stating the facts is not bias. Arnel is a good cover singer using autotune and in the same league as Kelly Hansen of Foreigner. The previous Journey lead singer Augeri was caught lipsyncing, so Journey uses tech gimmicks to sell tickets, no different than any other touring senior rock bands.

Milan Rapaic I never really listened to much Maiden. But with Journey it was basically the end (ish) of their career, at least where they wouldn’t be making many more albums, so it makes more sense to have a singer that can emulate it live, especially with a legendary singer such as Steve Perry. With like Black Sabbath, and even bands like Killswitch Engage, it was in the middle of their career, so they could afford a voice-style change

Milan Rapaic He said he was burnt out and didn’t want to make any more music himself. After that long, a band like this knows whoever they move on too fans won’t appreciate as much, so they may as well find a singer that is similar (which is really hard for Perry btw).
