Both this kid and Jimi have great voices. Where he fall shorts and what places Jimi in a world his own is how Jimi makes you feel and believe each word in the songs he sang. I appreciate and respect this kid for his talent but Jimi was so special and moved many hearts and souls as we grew through the 80s. Truely missed
The issue is not that "the kid" can't sing, he is quite good, but Jamie had a talent of being able to sing with an incredibly emotive quality so that you actually felt the words of the song....It's like when Peter Cetera left Chicago or Steve Perry left Journey...yes these guys can sing, but it is not as emotive as the original singer....
There’s simply singing a song versus being “inside” a song where the stakes are high and personal and that feeling is conveyed in the tone. Very few singers can effectively pull that off…Jamison, Mercury, Stewart and Perry are a few who can do that with conviction.
Frankie wanted to revive the Jimi that joined Survivor! I see that this boy has the same length and color hair as Jimi when he joined Survivor! He is also handsome, just like Jimi was, but I am sorry to tell Frankie that he will never have another Jimi. He was one of a kind.
Jimi isn’t here anymore. And he will not be forgotten. But this guy is a great singer!! If this we’re to be a new, starting out, band we would all be saying how amazing of a frontman this guy is. That’s the reality.
I was pissed when I saw this video and this new singer. I had no idea this band was still doing their thing. This singer wasn't even born when this song came out. Then, I heard him sing, and I closed my eyes thinking about the 3-times I saw Survivor in the 1980s LIVE, and I smiled, and I said to myself; I can't go back, but for now, this will do! Good job kid, those are some huge shoes to fill!. RIP JIMI!
I think we all have to overcome the trauma of Jimi's sudden passing, and move on to give the new brave kid more encouragement. Everyone is one of a kind. Jimi's taking an immortal place in our heart doesn't mean we can't like another vocalist, talented in other way.
Well said! There will never be an original again. All th haters need to take this for what it is......a shot to keep the dream alive and to enjoy life! This kids is good in his own skin. RiP jimi
Frankie tiene que saber que survivor termino ya, yo jamas voy apoyar a frankie, tengo todos los cd de jimi para escucharlo cundo yo quiera, no necesito escuchar sus estupidos solos de guitrra! Lee esto para que veas lo estupido que es frankie, Frankie fired Dave Bickler 6 times! He made Jimi's life a living hell for years Constantly slapping him with lawsuits over use of song rights (For Jimis solo performances.) He was the one on the night of the very "final concert in Califoria, that turned the night into hell. Jimi complained "before" the show, that his face and arms were numb (All signs of a stroke, which he succumbed to a few hours later.) He didn't feel well and wanted to cancel the concert Frankie Sullivan demanded that he go out on stage and perform the show. He threatened to sue Jimi, if he didn't do the concert! We all know the rest of the fateful night. The band should have gotten him medical attention, instead of trying to force him to perform with a lawsuit!l Jimi absolutely "hated" Frankie Sullivan! I was great friends with Jimi, and stil with his family.

Of course, but the kid is ok... the problem is the lead guitarist... this is the 4th video I watch... he keeps messing up left and right... it looks like he has some issues...!!
If the kid knew any better he'd steer clear of Frankie and band. Why play with them? Frankie must a nightmare to be in a band with. No way I'd survive without trying to take Frankies head off every night.
There's no power to his voice. I have absolutely nothing against getting a young guy. But Bickler and Jamison had power. Even if they lost range in later life, both still have much more power than this guy.
Jimi was like Steve Perry of Journey, one of a kind. That said Cameron as the voice, a few years touring on his back and he'll be awesome. Big boots to fill, but give the guy a chance!
Yeah, He's got that smoothness and Jimi's voicing "timbre". Ill bet it gets thicker /w more depth as He ages soundin more "jimi-ish". Ill be curious to hear this in 20 yrs.Frankie and I will be in our 80s... YIKES!..LOL
I agree. He's a kid and it sounds pretty damn good. Jimi wasn't Dave and this kid isn't Jimi but they all have similar vocal qualities that work for this material. I hate to say it but Jimi wouldn't sound this good today.
2:14 Love it the guitarist guiding the kid to interact with the audience. A good mentor. A man who love his band and willing to help his colleagues improve. Good job, Frankie!
The singer didn't really know what to do with himself just yet but he was young. That can be learned. This caught fire nicely and the singer sounded pretty good.
The singer definitely has a voice/range. He’s young, give him time. He’s still new at this. It will all fall in place within time. Jami would want this band to continue on with out him. Keep in mind a singer can always be replaced, not their music. As long as they stick to his legacy, they will sell shows. For what it’s worth......I’m sure Jami is smiling down on these guy’s for continuing where he left off. They’re all Survivors!
Peterik had the right vision for survivor and Jamison was the expressive singer with an outstanding voice. When a band looses such 2 important members there is only one solution (MHO): To end up the band to honour their past. Nowadays there are only the survivor-logo and JS left. Far too less to keep the old spirit alive. For me, this band-version is a joke that will never come near to the old days....
It lost more than two members. The only guy from their 80s lineup is Frankie Sullivan. Marc Droubay left in 1988 I think. Stephan Ellis left in 1987 due to illness, Jimi and Jim left because Frankie is a douche.
The kid sounds great. He's on pitch and paying a great tribute to Jimi's legacy. Singing and Performing are two totally different things. At one point the guitarist gets the singer to come out front and interact with the crowd. That's just a lack of stage experience and comes over time after doing show after show. The guitar player looks like he's still doing blow like it's 1982.
🔵 It sounds to me like the kid's being stepped-on BADLY!.... seems to be the norm in almost every concert I've seen with him singing,...kudos to him for keeping his timing and his bearing, quite hard to do with all the inconsiderate-wailing from the guitar.
Maybe we will accept that Survivor band transfers to more like Chicago band style. The kid has his own unique great voice. He 's just a kid , normal to perform like a kid, even like an idol singer. Give him more time. Life experiences will make him perform more naturally, I believe. Allow the kid walk his own way. Maybe let him get some interviews, tell his own stories. Tell everyone why and how he likes Survivor and how m any efforts he has put to perform Survivor on stage. The more we get to know a man , the better we'll like him
I give the new cat praise and good fortune but aren't we so glad we had David Beckel and Jimi Jamison from the 80's 1st. There will be no other Substitutes.
He just doesn’t have that breadth of depth and emotive tone that Jimi had. He’s a bit pitchy. Seems like a good kid, great singer, but not a good fit for these songs. Sullivan’s guitar work is so sloppy and muddy these days. Ugh! Hang it up guys.
Good god this was painful. Usually when I listen to legacy bands, it's the singers that sound like hell while the rest of the band sounds okay. Here was the complete opposite... singer is fine, but holy hell FS sounds way off
Great work! Jimi channeled Dave in many ways as was required for a flawless singer transition (both so talented) and this singer is doing a great job of carrying on a tough job. Honestly he's better than the band .
What you say is not true! Jimi was never inspired by any Dave to sing, a complete lie, Jimi had the most beautiful voice! And he sang with his own voice without thinking about anyone else's voice!
new singer got a good bollocking from the demented lookin frankie.... for being too timid I guess....JEEZ...... what a thankless gig for him..Frankie hitting a fair few bum notes too... he played like an angry old git !! singer way too young to have gained any real stage prescence!!
I think Jimi Jamison would think the world of Cameron Barton. He's holding his own here. You can't ask a singer to be somebody else, and to his credit he's not trying to. All you can ask is be on pitch, and have your "instrument" ready, including getting into the performance. He's done that, and I think he's done it well!
Growing up listning to mostly 60, 70, and 80's, it seems there's only been a handfull of groups that have pulled of an original lead singer change, Fleetwood Mac,Van Halen, Pink Floyd, AC DC, Survivor, journey(Rollie to Perry), I know I'm leaving some out, but these are for sure.
Yup. This is putrid. I think the worst part about this band is Frankie because he was playing like shit. They should kick him out and call themselves "Survived."
I can't listen to this.. I'm sorry, but Jimi's iconic voice and the band together made these songs what they became. Nobody put their heart and sole into their music and made you feel it like Jimi did. Forever missed..RIP Jimi❤
Pressing the guy in front of the public is a very wrong way of doing things. I'm sorry that Frankie was so disrespectful! And talking bad about the new singer won't bring the old one back ... Cameron is good! Good voice and interpretations. And it's not his fault that Jamison have left us...
DBG at 2:13 Frankie grabs and shoves the kid to engage with the fans out front-it looked very awkward! I’m a guitar player myself and I think with the amount of chords and notes Frankie is botching on the guitar -coupled with this behavior--some sort of substance(s) be involved--just a gut feeling-I hope not...
Cameron did a decent cover. I guess on some level I can give Frankie Sullivan a pass, he is trying to keep some of the greatest music produced in the 80s alive but with that being said.... Jimi Jamison forever!
Frankie wanted to revive the Jimi that joined Survivor! I see that this boy has the same length and color hair as Jimi when he joined Survivor! He is also handsome, just like Jimi was, but I am sorry to tell Frankie that he will never have another Jimi. He was one of a kind.
The singer is doing a good job. Jimi was one of the best singers of the 80s with that recognizable voice and really cannot be replaced. But this singer is doing as good as anybody can expect. However, musically, this was a total shit show. I have posted about this problem before -- Frankie needs to relearn the songs and play them the way we expect to hear them. They all need to dial it in, sort it out, know when to play, and know when not to play. There is a criminal lack of feel and dynamics in the musicianship. They have a good catalog and a good singer. It is a shame that they can't get the other pieces of the puzzle in place.
Although Jimi didn’t perform this song at Firefest 2010 he pperformed with H.E.A.T. and a true guitar legend Tommy Denander. Google Firefest 2010 Jimis performance has been said to be the best in its history. I watch it everyday Tommy is a great guy and so exceptional that Frankie is not fit to carry Tommy’s guitar pick
This is respectless. This was an iconic band. He should have reunited the band instead of suing Dave... He ruined a legacy. We already had the tickets for the london show 2014 when Jimi died. Then, they did not reschedule the dates for money reasons. Dave was let go. Sad to see this. They shouldnt use the name Survivor. Jim, Dave and Marc should sue back the name and play together.
"Eye of the Survivor" is my new name for them Might as well be a tribute band Now that Bickler quit and peterick is gone. Jimi had the vocals on all those hits. Give it a rest guys!!!
Survivors final sinking of the ship was bringing this singer to the band. I am really surprised Frankie would have said yes to him. It’s a shame because survivor was a great band, but finding the right piece to the puzzle wasn’t in the cards.

Enough comparing. He's already gone. May he rest in peace. Why don't you just agree thag he's a good singer too. He actually nailed it.
YEAH, THE KID IS NOT STUPID. HE WONT COMMIT SUICIDE LIKE STUPID JAMI JAMISON.
The good old days of survivor are over. The voice of Jim fills every survivor song. He has sing with heart.
I say give Cameron Barton a chance, it's nice the younger generation is into great 80s music
There's no power to his voice. I have absolutely nothing against getting a young guy. But Bickler and Jamison had power. Even if they lost range in later life, both still have much more power than this guy.

Why dont u audition for the lead singer!
@@tedhausermann7172 why don’t you re-read my comment and then make a sensible remark? I said he has a voice and to give him time to settle in etc
Nobody is Jimi for sure, but the kid has potential. Give him a chance!
each time i hear him . he sounds better
Boy has a great voice!
He's a great singer
Yeah, He's got that smoothness and Jimi's voicing "timbre". Ill bet it gets thicker /w more depth as He ages soundin more "jimi-ish". Ill be curious to hear this in 20 yrs.Frankie and I will be in our 80s... YIKES!..LOL

very good but jimmi sang this one with heart
I expected nothing, but got a lot! Vital Signs was my first SURVIVOR Album in the 80s ! Great Job , Boy !
Excellence voice Cameron , thanks you for continuing legacy of survivor and Jimi Jaimison, the best music .
2:14 Love it the guitarist guiding the kid to interact with the audience. A good mentor. A man who love his band and willing to help his colleagues improve. Good job, Frankie!
I met Frankie at a Concert he's awesome!
I've been a Survivor fan since 1981 and I keep coming back to hear this boy. He's adorable and a really good singer.
The singer didn't really know what to do with himself just yet but he was young. That can be learned. This caught fire nicely and the singer sounded pretty good.

Hard to replace a legend; but the kid does a great job, he needs to create his own aura. 👏🏼

I always felt that way about stone temple pilots but sometimes you have to give them a chance and be grateful that the music lives on!
Awesome job, one of the best covers I've heard.
The kid sounds great. He's on pitch and paying a great tribute to Jimi's legacy. Singing and Performing are two totally different things.

Lol 😂
Band was not that tight …
Anyone who knows anything about music knows this kid can sing. The problem, frankly, and sad to say, is the band.
True and correct!👍
I'm with you. He has a great voice but the band.... 👎
🔵 It sounds to me like the kid's being stepped-on BADLY!.... seems to be the norm in almost every concert I've seen with him singing,...kudos to him for keeping his timing and his bearing, quite hard to do with all the inconsiderate-wailing from the guitar.
He can sing but can't peform. There is a difference. HUGE difference.

Frankie on guitar doing his best C.C. DeVille impersonation during this whole concert.
Might help if Frankie quit missing notes. After 35 years you would think he could play it left handed, upside down and behind his back.
Dang. 😆😆😆
🤣🤣
Oh he's awful now
Too muddy and sloppy. Overplays.
Coke is a hell of a drug
The kid will never be as good as Jimi Jamison... & Frankie Sullivan is killing the band.. I will never see Survivor live. It will never be the same..
Nick P I agree Sir
Jimi Jamison committed suicide. Get over it
"The kid" did very well but yes Frankie was not good and seemed annoyed the whole show
Where did you hear that
Jimi didn't commit suicide! Why does he say that? His death was an accident!
At present there's still 4 of the 5 guys alive that recorded Eye Of The Tiger, Caught In The Game etc yet this is what constitutes "Survivor" now.
Survivor in the 80’s most underrated band. Now it looks like they are playing at a truck stop. Miss the Bickler Jamison Patrick days
I give the new cat praise and good fortune but aren't we so glad we had David Beckel and Jimi Jamison from the 80's 1st. There will be no other Substitutes.
He just doesn’t have that breadth of depth and emotive tone that Jimi had. He’s a bit pitchy. Seems like a good kid, great singer, but not a good fit for these songs. Sullivan’s guitar work is so sloppy and muddy these days. Ugh! Hang it up guys.

NOT REALLY- VERY MEDIOCRE VOICE. THERE'S NO COMPARISON TO JIMI .
Great work! Jimi channeled Dave in many ways as was required for a flawless singer transition (both so talented) and this singer is doing a great job of carrying on a tough job. Honestly he's better than the band .
What you say is not true! Jimi was never inspired by any Dave to sing, a complete lie, Jimi had the most beautiful voice! And he sang with his own voice without thinking about anyone else's voice!
There's no sense in being super critical of someone doing their best to honor the fallen. Shaddup and appreciate the music
He is not "honoring" someone. He is just earning money. Btw he is better than Jimi
I met Jimi twice, Really Nice Guy, RIP Jimi.
We want more!!!! The world need the band SURVIVOR!!!!!!!!
this singer is amazing and im impressed with his accuracy of notes. this singer burns the flame that jimi started.
That's true nobady like Jimmy Jamison, he was único
Give this guy a chance. He has a good vocal range to sing this songs from survivor . Jimi had a unbelievable voice and it is hard to sing like Jimi.
new singer got a good bollocking from the demented lookin frankie.... for being too timid I guess....JEEZ...... what a thankless gig for him..Frankie hitting a fair few bum notes too... he played like an angry old git !! singer way too young to have gained any real stage prescence!!
Jamo i miss you 💔
I completely agree that nobody can sing this like Jimi, but the kid is good though....
I think Jimi Jamison would think the world of Cameron Barton. He's holding his own here. You can't ask a singer to be somebody else, and to his credit he's not trying to. All you can ask is be on pitch, and have your "instrument" ready, including getting into the performance. He's done that, and I think he's done it well!
I hadn't seen this kid till just now. Not a bad job trying to fill the shoes of a legend like Jimi but a great job
I saw them again about a year later and he is definitely improving with experience
Always love this song
The kid has heart and a lot of guts to try and fill Jimi's shoes. I wish him nothing but the best, great job kid!
Jimi will never be forgotten
He is good for his age. Has potential. Nobody will ever replace Jimi.
34 people wished they’d have turned up cameron’s vocals
He is doing great, I just love survivor with the old integrants. I recently saw Dave on Icons of Classic Rock, he is just amazing!!!! ❤
Growing up listning to mostly 60, 70, and 80's, it seems there's only been a handfull of groups that have pulled of an original lead singer change, Fleetwood Mac,Van Halen, Pink Floyd, AC DC, Survivor, journey(Rollie to Perry), I know I'm leaving some out, but these are for sure.
This kid is a tremendous vocalist though, I get all the talk of "he's not Jimi" but man, he's really effin good
Frankie is hammered as usual...
He is good but Jimi were way better than him.
Jimi was way better than everybody
Frankie is crazy...Awful band!! Jesus Christ!! Good singer, but the band is out!! Jimi R.I.P!
Yup. This is putrid. I think the worst part about this band is Frankie because he was playing like shit. They should kick him out and call themselves "Survived."
Jimi Jamison committed suicide. Get over it
@@pocojoyo WHERE DID YOU GET THAT INFORMATION ABOUT JIMI???
I can't listen to this.. I'm sorry, but Jimi's iconic voice and the band together made these songs what they became.
Nobody put their heart and sole into their music and made you feel it like Jimi did.
Forever missed..RIP Jimi❤
A new generation talent voice in a journey..give a chance for a vocal talent
Wow, he may not be Jimi but he's pretty darn good.
Pressing the guy in front of the public is a very wrong way of doing things. I'm sorry that Frankie was so disrespectful! And talking bad about the new singer won't bring the old one back ... Cameron is good! Good voice and interpretations. And it's not his fault that Jamison have left us...
NOBODY CAN REPLACE THE ORIGINAL ONLY DO YOUR BEST TO CARRY ON THE LEGACY...
A reasonable comment. Lots of controversy here on the matter...
I feel sorry for him, there was no need for Frankie to embarrass him like that.
DBG at 2:13 Frankie grabs and shoves the kid to engage with the fans out front-it looked very awkward! I’m a guitar player myself and I think with the amount of chords and notes Frankie is botching on the guitar -coupled with this behavior--some sort of substance(s) be involved--just a gut feeling-I hope not...
The X factor... the emotions and feelings is not in this song. Jimi nails it. RIP Jimi
I'm watching this in 2023. Is Cameron Barton still Survivor's lead vocalist?
Cameron did a decent cover. I guess on some level I can give Frankie Sullivan a pass, he is trying to keep some of the greatest music produced in the 80s alive but with that being said.... Jimi Jamison forever!
Wow! This guy is amazing!
The kid has a great voice.
Good rendition. RIP Jimi
Frankie wanted to revive the Jimi that joined Survivor! I see that this boy has the same length and color hair as Jimi when he joined Survivor! He is also handsome, just like Jimi was, but I am sorry to tell Frankie that he will never have another Jimi. He was one of a kind.
Not the same feeling as Jimi, Jimi sang it with heart greetings from Queens, New York ✌🏻
Sounds pretty good … give him a few years to grow into the role 👍🏻
Sounds great...but the anointing is not there..thats what made Jimi so great...you felt it ...its talent but something special God gives you✌
Yes tough shoes...and he’s doing it! What a voice! This song is so insanely hard to sing.
The singer is doing a good job. Jimi was one of the best singers of the 80s with that recognizable voice and really cannot be replaced. But this singer is doing as good as anybody can expect.

Great singer! Good job!!!!
The kid is good but Jimi Jamison voice was awesome
he surprised me
GREAT SUPER AWESOME!! JIMMY SPIRIT STILL ALIVE !!!!!
This band should rename themselves Casualty instead of Survivor to reflect the big revolving door of people. This band should retire.
Saudades de Jimi Jamison, não menosprezando o novo vocalista, ninguém supera aquela voz maravilhosa de Jimi.
Amazing!!!!
Jimi must be so very proud of you boy, great vocals...keep going
Very good! The promissor young
Beeeeuuuutiful!!!!!!@
Awesome
Does this singer still perform with survivor or is he on his own? Great voice!
Cameron plays guitar and sings, solo, at bars. Mostly cover tunes, but has a few albums.
No wonder there's no one who can play like Frankie.
No one could ever replace Jami Jamison, the guitar player had a bad night
Sullivan 😍😍😍😍😍😍
It is like Pride of Lions doing Survivor stuff...
Pretty damn incredible!
Fine job young man,,,,,,,
Any original members left? Hardly survivor then
The singer is the best performer here.
Sullivan faks up quite a lot of his leads/riffs
Very thin background vocals as well
Although Jimi didn’t perform this song at Firefest 2010 he pperformed with H.E.A.T. and a true guitar legend Tommy Denander. Google Firefest 2010 Jimis performance has been said to be the best in its history. I watch it everyday Tommy is a great guy and so exceptional that Frankie is not fit to carry Tommy’s guitar pick
Some of y’all are some haters🤣 He did a great job.
Great seats Peggy! Did you happen to also get a good seat at the awesome buffet del Lago has while you were there? :O)
Yes...4th row on the left side...and lol...no buffet...we did eat at the Vine restaurant, though, and it was pretty good!
This is respectless. This was an iconic band. He should have reunited the band instead of suing Dave... He ruined a legacy. We already had the tickets for the london show 2014 when Jimi died. Then, they did not reschedule the dates for money reasons. Dave was let go. Sad to see this. They shouldnt use the name Survivor. Jim, Dave and Marc should sue back the name and play together.
"Eye of the Survivor" is my new name for them
Might as well be a tribute band
Now that Bickler quit and peterick is gone.
Jimi had the vocals on all those hits.
Give it a rest guys!!!
That guy Cameron Barton looks like a Trixter's Pete Loran clone (at the same age, of course). And by the way, the guy sings a lot!!
How the hell does Frankie still do those high high harmonies!!!
Survivors final sinking of the ship was bringing this singer to the band. I am really surprised Frankie would have said yes to him. It’s a shame because survivor was a great band, but finding the right piece to the puzzle wasn’t in the cards.
Didn't play Burning Heart at this concert. Frankie acted annoyed all concert. Cameron put on a great show though
