This rendition has the most contagious groove! We can’t forget the original contribution by Steve Miller, but Arnel the guys take it to another level! An all around fantastic musical performance and video! Thx guys! 👊
Ребята, вы великолепные музыканты и аранжировщики! Желаю вам удачи! Привет из России! You guys are great musicians and arrangers! I wish you good luck! Greetings from Russia!
He is a real deal.. i watch his old videoo Long hair Arnel with his Killer Voice .... imagine in just simple mic and stage he can make a Magic through his voice
Das ist fantastisch!!! Респект Стиву Миллеру за песню, а этим парням за такую фантастическую улётную интерпретацию!!! Снимаю шляпу. Это лётчики высшего пилотажа
I wish they could do more cover or original songs with Arnel Pineda. I really enjoy watching the musicians , they’re awesome and I couldn’t count anymore of how many times I watched this video again and again. Thank you for sharing 🔥
This is an example of how to make a good '80s song not only relevant, and current 30 years after but outstanding and with a modern twist that could bring in new fans to the band.
Arnel is definitely a vocalist of any famous band in the world. From journey, toto, Chicago, name it he will fill it... he will do it even better and a different level. Cool.
@@rjordist4925 some djs are musicians themselves the turntable is a musical instrument,but I get what you are saying, always support skratchers an turntablist musicians all day an night sometimes djs.
Okay. No Kidding. I would love to hear this cover on the radio. It would be an instant hit. It was a hit back in the day. But this is way better than the original. Man this is good. They should consider getting permission from Steve Miller to release it. Great cover man. You all killed it.
Radio? Why? Your hearing it now - and you can stream it as much as you want! Plus you don't have to endure the commercials! Radio? I'm now in my mid 50s, I haven't listened to the radio since 2003... the day I bought buy first iPod and learned how to 'burn' CDs. Respectfully,... 'get with it man'!
I hated this song until now! Very cool. Funny, Billy and I used to play at the same club in upstate New York 41 years ago, The Cork and Bottle( different bands of course). Joel, you and I have met quite a few times after TSO shows when I was doing the cover band thing with Jeff. I had beers with Van after a Steve Morse show in 1990. Saw Arnel with Journey in 2017 with Jeff and Cathy. Small world indeed. Great job guys.
I've covered this with bands and even acoustically and dang gosh I mean this isn't a cover it's a whole new inspirational vision. Wow guys ...just made my day!
Это надо же-такой мощный состав музыкантов-я в полнейшем восторге!)🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉Моя любимая ❤навеки ❤Абракадабра❤!)Благодарю легендарного Стива Миллера за легендарную песню а ребят-за разрыв моей башки от этих чудовищно прекрасных нот!)🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Amazing version! Way to go guys! Truly great musicians! Arnel you have an awesome voice! You may front Journey but I think everyone knows you are capable of so much more!
Unbelievable cover version!!! Exceptional vocals and extremely talented musicians actung as back up vocalists too!! Arnel really elevated this song to a new level! Ably backed up by professional level drummer ,bass, lead guitar and the energetic guy on percussion!! Hats off to you guys!
I actually never liked this song when it came out in early 80s, but these guys turned it into a great prog.rock track. I watched it 4 times this week. Great job, guys.
This is the most amazing cover I have ever listened too and Joel put together one of the most awesome group of musicians to play this. FIRST CLASS. I love the original, but this just blew me away. AWESOME!!!!! Thank you Joel.
Wow this is awesome, I cant say I am a huge fan of the original version but this is on another level. Obviously Arnel is awesome and the guitar and bass rocks ...but that drummer is fantastic, truly awesome stuff :-)
Gone passed 50 and this original song is something I know well throughout my life. But this version is the most attractive, groovy and wonderful. You guys are world class musicians, gotta give you all that.
really arnel P ur a lagend ...even the old song u can make it alive again and this original drummer, pianist, electric guitarist they are awsome not faded....the steve miller band still magnificent...OLD IS GOLD....olalah👏👏👏❤️
The lead guitar and drummer both at another level. Arnel wow again and again proved what a great frontman he is. Group of true musicians, each a master of his craft
Abrakadabra indeed a majical song ....with these kind and talented musicians....all i can say is WOW!!!AWESOME!!!FANTASTIC!!!BEAUTIFUL!!!! PERFECT......................!!!!!!!!!!!!
Love this song already and y'all KILLED IT!!! Is there any song Arnel can't do? I don't think so!!! I hope I get the chance to see him in concert again!!!
Alisha Carter, Arnel Pineda can sing anything. Watch his old videos in you tube covering the songs of Steven Tyler, Bon Jovi, Queen, Scorpions, Led Zeppelin, etc and you will be amazed with his pipes.
Just watched again guys! Every time I enjoy it as much as first time hearing it. Honestly, you guys just sound so good together. Please consider getting together for a project. Possibly doing a record and touring together I’d buy it for sure❤️
Il just impress he memorize all the lyrics of all the songs he sung..did he install memory card in his mind????he was gifted with talent...i salute u AP...
This rendition has the most contagious groove! We can’t forget the original contribution by Steve Miller, but Arnel the guys take it to another level! An all around fantastic musical performance and video! Thx guys! 👊
👍🥰
Outfuckingstanding
When you love what you do...it will manifest itself.
Freakin A.. That was awesome!!!
@@mikegelbke8803 This rendition
misses the ENTIRE essence of the
mellow groove of Steve Miller.
If only they give a Grammy Award or anything to outstanding cover songs on TH-cam! This song will have my vote.
Best saund
I agree
Mine too..🙏
Mine’s 1000x vote too!
Ребята, вы великолепные музыканты и аранжировщики!
Желаю вам удачи!
Привет из России!
You guys are great musicians and arrangers!
I wish you good luck!
Greetings from Russia!
Journey were very fortunate to have found Arnel. This highlights that Arnel is the real deal.
Absolutely!
He is a real deal.. i watch his old videoo Long hair Arnel with his Killer Voice .... imagine in just simple mic and stage he can make a Magic through his voice
Das ist fantastisch!!! Респект Стиву Миллеру за песню, а этим парням за такую фантастическую улётную интерпретацию!!! Снимаю шляпу. Это лётчики высшего пилотажа
My god this is sweet if I’ve ever heard anything like this in my 58 years of life on this earth. Beautiful. God damn.
I wish they could do more cover or original songs with Arnel Pineda. I really enjoy watching the musicians , they’re awesome and I couldn’t count anymore of how many times I watched this video again and again. Thank you for sharing 🔥
Me too!
Love this cover, too, and I learned that the one doing the percussion is Lenny Castro (from Toto band) - Canada
I really love dis song. Amazing!
Please NO
Try watching the song of Cheap Trick's The Flame cover by Arnel Pineda. The latter sings better than the original.
This is an example of how to make a good '80s song not only relevant, and current 30 years after but outstanding and with a modern twist that could bring in new fans to the band.
My thoughts exactly!
Shows the massive talent of these guys and that Arnel is not just Journeyman...
They’re all so aggressive with their instruments. Gives the song great energy...
@pessomar I got what you did there 😏
He can siing anything...
Agreed 100% and well said
Agree, I don't even know why they label him as "steve perry wanna be" when it's obvious that he owns every song he sings
Wow!Great version!Потрясающая аранжировка,прекрасный вокал Арнела,замечательные музыканты.Очень круто!👏Tanks for the good musik!🎸🥁🎶
Arnel is definitely a vocalist of any famous band in the world. From journey, toto, Chicago, name it he will fill it... he will do it even better and a different level. Cool.
I think lots of foreign band wants arnel to sing their song,coz they know arnel can do the vocals.
I like this better than the original. The whole band brings it, and Arnel Pineda is really an outstanding vocalist.
Definitely better than the original and the instrumental take is the best I've heard for this song.
Yes but still have the spirit of the original... You know the ..."mojo"
@@eddiebaez2093 but you enjoy listening to this cover version than the original, right? LOL
They must cover the original version. I still prefer the original one.
Agree!
The original song itself is a killer, but this cover I might say is totally marvelous
OMG Billy Sheehan , Joel Hoekstra and Arnel Pineda in one song! This made my day!
アーネルがカバーすると、どの曲もすべて本人を越えてしまう❗
この実力なら、誰も敵わない?
さすがアーネル❗最高‼️
Finally! I love Arnel being Arnel and not "sort of Perry". I love this cover.
For the 60 dislikes, who hurt you so deeply that you can't enjoy great music?
There shouldn't be a dislike button for this song
Thank God we still have real musicians making inspired music these days. I can't wait to see you all back on the road doing what you do best.
yeah because most of the millenial musicians nowadays are DJs and Are'n Bee. lmao!
These days? That song is 40+ years old. But these guys are absolutely fantastic!
@@lexdunn4160 I know the song, I grew up listening to it. I was speaking about their performance.
@@rjordist4925 some djs are musicians themselves the turntable is a musical instrument,but I get what you are saying, always support skratchers an turntablist musicians all day an night sometimes djs.
@@rjordist4925 all they need really for their music to be listenable is a little abracadabra.
I love Joel Hoekstra, when he play his guitar it seem like is part of him. He look at the camera and said I got this. Amazing.
I’ve been cycling this video every day for the past weeks and just can’t seem to get enough of it! That’s some crazy shit! 👊
Awesome to see Arnel doing something outside of Journey! What a lineup! These guys could make any song awesome!
All Stars lineup! Arnel is killing it! :-)
Arnel always brings music back to life.
Okay. No Kidding. I would love to hear this cover on the radio. It would be an instant hit. It was a hit back in the day. But this is way better than the original. Man this is good. They should consider getting permission from Steve Miller to release it. Great cover man. You all killed it.

@@fvg6421 I never listen to radio either, Music via Bluetooth it is for me.
I said to my wife last night "OMG this would be huge on rock radio... if there was still such a thing"
Of course there is still an FM radio I always listened to music while laundrying.
Have seen this countless times since it’s first posting.
The absolute best cover of any song on TH-cam, hands down! 👊
Spot on... Such talent...
Joel Hoekstra's remake of Deep Purple's Stormbringer, Awesome!!
What a singer! I love Arnel's voice so much.
Nice. I've never heard Arnel sing this raw and soulful.
I love how Joel beams the camera while Billy Sheehan looks around like he's contemplating repainting the room.
😂😂😂😂
OMG! THIS VERSION IS BETTER THAN THE ORIGINAL! ARNEL, your talents are so AMAZING!!!! BRILLIANT COLLABORATION, ALL!
I agree with you 👏
Woah it was great then Arnel took it to the roof during the awesome guitar solos about 3/4 of the way in! Everyone was amazing.
The original was always a favorite of mine, but these guys take it to the stratosphere. Great stuff guys!
Billy Sheehan, the Bass God himself. Arnel always sounds amazing, his voice just doesn't age.
I had the honor to see the amazing Joel Hoekstra live with whitesnake , and the way he plays the guitar, it's just from another World
I hated this song until now! Very cool. Funny, Billy and I used to play at the same club in upstate New York 41 years ago, The Cork and Bottle( different bands of course).

Just Goes To Show How Amazing God Given Talent Is Always Wonderful When Shared From The Heart
Just an average pop song made GREAT by this incredible team of talented musicians....WOW
Даже не могу сказать, сколько раз я смотрела этот клип. Сто миллиардов миллионов? Нет, больше!
You have the most beautiful voice Arnel Pineda! :) I love this version! I love hearing it over and over again! :)
Guys its 2022.. and Arnel is killing it !!!WOW 🔥🔥🔥...Great Vocals.. love it 😍❤❤❤
Arnell is a powerhouse of versatility.
I've covered this with bands and even acoustically and dang gosh I mean this isn't a cover it's a whole new inspirational vision. Wow guys ...just made my day!
There is no solo like a Joel Hoekstra solo. We bow to you.
What a set of musicians! 🤘🏽Arnel sounds so smooth
This is like my tenth time checking this vid and I am sorry Joel has the skills, but this Drummer is absolutely killing it!!!!
Yes, the drummer is freakin good!
Conga player as well👌
Arnel power!! Excellent
That was exceptional! COVID Supergroup lol. Now can we have a full album of masterfully reengineered covers by these guys just for fun??👏👏
Hahaha the best music of pandemic.
if these guys have to perform just for meet a greet events, they should have name their group as covid19
Arnel really is a gifted singer. No doubt! Can sing anything!
why dont you put an collab album together.. it will be a Hit for sure..

This masterpiece was like hearing it for the first time. I'm in the Back to the 80s radio studio saying only one word... DAMN!!!!!
Damn, this is lit and Arnel's voice is a killer!🤟🔥
Unbelievable cover version!!!
Exceptional vocals and extremely talented musicians actung as back up vocalists too!!

Hats off to you guys!
I actually never liked this song when it came out in early 80s, but these guys turned it into a great prog.rock track. I watched it 4 times this week. Great job, guys.
same here. Id cover my ears whenever someone would play this. Hated it as a kid. I enjoyed this tremendously. Everyone is just so talented here.
so true! WOw! This version is so great because the musicians are world class level example Billy Sheehan on bass = GOAT
This is the best cover of any song I’ve ever heard. The new arrangement added a spark that I never knew the song needed.
Arnel is owning every song he sings. The arnel way. Superb singer. And band, what a bunch of talents. 😉
The original song is great but these cover really rock the house down..a very nice collaboration
With a song titile like this and the musicians playing it,...this was absolutely MAGICAL ! !

I'd love to hear Arnel do a cover of Still Of The Night
THE NEXT KICKASS BAND LINEUP!!

Journey songs make me cry, this one makes me dance. Abracadabra v2.0.

This is an incredible example of how a older hit can be updated and reinterpreted and improved. Amazing arrangement and musicianship.
Neal must be jealous, Arnel! You're performing with another all-star band!
I agree! This let's Arnel be Arnel. Love it. What a group of talent he's with!
Haha
In 100%! Stupid neal!
Jealousy or Faithfully?

Awesome remake of the hit song in the 80's by this collab of professional musicians.
I would pay for a download of this. Really amazing how they transformed it. Arnel rocks.
Just watched again guys! Every time I enjoy it as much as first time hearing it. Honestly, you guys just sound so good together. Please consider getting together for a project. Possibly doing a record and touring together I’d buy it for sure❤️
VERY VERY AWESOME COVER ...PLAYING ALREADY 20X TIMES STILL PLAYING IT NOW.. CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL ARTIST 👌
When magicians play their instruments...Abracadabra....Love it...
Joel is soooo good at making shredding look effortless. I'd give him a Rock 'n Roll HOF nod based on his TH-cam collaborations alone!
Yeah...i noticed that .
I am glad he is in whitesnake, one of my all time favourite band
Watching this for the fourth time in a row!
2:55 - killer Prog-Rock interlude!
