There are few people on earth who can play drums as well as Deen does and few people on earth who can sing as well as Deen does. To be able to do both at the same time puts Deen in very elite company.
I'd love to see an EEG of that dang guy when he plays and sings simultaneously... that just astounds me. Playing drums already requires virtually independent control of all fours, the sense of rhythm and tempo and being able to recall and reproduce them for each song, and recall of and vocal performance of the same. That isn't learned, IMO.
jmil2tx i agree he is definitely talented. Deen is a great singer for sure. But he was lip syncing here. Just look at 2:15 and 3:10. Looks like he got things mixed up a little
@Deen Castronovo has been clean and sober for about 5 years now. That's his biggest achievement for which he should be most proud. Musically, he's killing it and this video shows how insanely talented he is. He made Journey sound like a rock band with his monster drumming skills. And nobody has the raw, passionate, pitch perfect tone Deen has when he's airing it out. Deen wouldn't know me if I stepped on his foot, but I am really proud of his recovery. His actions are speaking much louder than any words could ever do.
Glad to hear he’s been able to overcome his addiction. It’s tough to put something down..been sober from booze for nearly two years myself. It’s no easy thing. It’ll be great to see Deen back with Journey. I was blown away by his performance on this track the first time I saw him play/sing it.
I keep coming back to this... even if Deen weren't playing drums, he would still be the best singer of this song since Steve. The fact that he's singing AND drumming simultaneously at an elite level is more impressive than most people realize.
The way he vocalizes "Chasing Thunder" at 1:40 - 1:50 is just awesomely perfect. Pitch, tremolo, just a touch of rasp, all blended with absolute perfection.
Deen Castronovo should be lead vocals more often....He is absolutely phenomenal! Sounds so much like Steve Perry. Best lead vocal since Steve left the band.
I agree but according to the media he turned it down, I'm Not against Arnel he's doing a great job in keeping this band going as well as Neil & Jonathan are Since Steve Left Which are very hard shoes to fill, when steve left, Neil & Jonathan had to start all over again! which is not easy or fun to do!
@@connieebach8608 I have to agree. He almost has that same voice sound as Steve. Still can't take anything away from Arnel. Here's to Journey keep on playing.
Every time I hear Deen sing one of the Journey songs it makes me say that he really makes them his own. He isn't a Steve Perry clone. He brings himself to the song not the other way around. Very talented, very humble and very very good....
So very true. Everytime I hear him and see him drumming for such a wonderful talented group makes me actually tingle and feel very happy for his success since highschool here in Salem.
I really LOVE Steve Perry and I really grown to love ARNEL, but now THIS...is mind blowing! I LOVE Dean...and Neil...and all of Journey really. Amazing talents and people.
I agree when steve Left the Band Us fans thought Journey was finished until Arnel and deen took over the vocals as like everything things change! but it's good to see they're still around for us! after all these years!
Deen Castronovo is in his own right a.significant part of of any band ...journey is lucky to have Deen with all the drama ... apparently even Deen can't control the narrative of these guys ..greed set in ...
I agree, his peak sounds just like steve perry, I can barely tell them apart the difference is only by watching this video! put this video on and walk away & listen you'll swear it was steve perry singing this when it's not simply Amazing!
Just my opinion, but Deen's voice sounds more like Perry then Arnel... absolutely amazing how much he sounds like Perry, it's almost spooky!.. and playing drums at the same time. In awe of this man..
The greatest singer/drummer of all time, and there is just simply no comparison/contest. Don Henley, Phil Collins, Kelly Keagy, whoever --- they all sit in awe of Deen Castronovo of Journey.
Jellybeantiger Peter Gabriel was a singer. He played drums only in his first local bands, never in Genesis, and as talented as he is at vocals, he's still a small step below Deen in range, but their styles are so different that it would be hard to compare, as there are things that Peter does that I don't think Deen can do, like the great falsetto, and I think he has a better tone than Deen, but he's a singer, not a drummer. Levon Helm had a nice vocal style, but nothing extraordinary about it --- his range & vocal control wasn't head-and-shoulders above his peers, and there are numerous times that he got pitchy even on albums, but I even like the pitchy moments.
MMMarvelous Grew up listening to Journey and when Deen joined I fell in love with everything he did. No doubt the best singer/drummer ever. To this day I get chills from Deen's performances.
I don’t know that that they sit in awe, nor should they. But the 3 you mentioned along with Deen, should be on the Mounr RushMore of drummer/singers. The best 4 to EVER do it!!
Always been skeptical and never I MEAN NEVER listen for more than a few seconds of anyone singing Perry's songs, but... I have to give it to him, not bad at all. Props 👍 ..! Just feels so odd, wrong, depressing 😏 lol... Love Steve
As a drummer who sings I can tell you Deen Castronovo was the real deal... One of the most underated singers. He could use pitch and tone like the best of them, while drumming.... Great stuff
Deen Cadtronovo is the best of the best! We all have a bump on the road of life. Deen will return to his drumming and singing as soon as he goes through these trials and tribulations. God is good, and he's got his hands wrapped around Deen. And this too shall pass and our Deeno will be corrected and back to his music, whichever band he choses. Whether its Journey or not. This man is too talented. Prayers for a successful cleansing and I can't wait for him to get back to his music. Deen is a music man who doesn't need Journey to be successful. He can do it on his own. Much Love to our Deeno!
Deen Castronovo has such a clear beautiful sounding voice it is such a pleasure to sit and listen to a real talent. Also to play the drums at the same time is a double amazement. Wishing him the best.
Love this! Incredible version of this song - i'm not hating on Steve - but Deen owns this song - no-one does it better! Neil is so underrated - could listen to him play all day - he puts so much feeling in every note - one of the best! Still They Ride!
No way. Dean can’t touch Steve. My dad was Jesse and this song holds a special place in my heart. He sounds great but better than Steve Perry no freakin’ way!!!
He's done Journey Through Time with Neil Schon so they're obviously still in touch and playing together. And now that Schon/Cain fired Vallory and Smith from the group and need a new bassist and drummer, who knows? Maybe they'll bring Deen back!
I adore this man!!! As a drummer he is the bomb.....as a singer...well he could do all the songs for Journey and maybe I would go see them again!!! Deen RULES!!!
A great voice with amazing range. What a great way to have a singer to fall back on if the lead goes down in a tour. Deen is in rehab and having been there, it will be a life-long process and the discipline to not put yourself in a position too fail. Those of us with a drug/alcohol problem all have nightmare memories of how we treated those close to us and I hope he is able to make amends with those people and forgive himself. Get back on your feet!!! I'm over 15 years and clean, so you can do it!!!
Deen has amazing singing chops and is a badass drummer. I miss the energy he brought to Journey live on stage. The band today just isn’t the same without Deen and Ross.
Give him a hug for us, tell him we support him, and encourage him to tour with Revolution Saints on the mic! So glad he can finally put this nightmare behind him and move on with his life.
This drummer/singer is the only reason I would go see journey. Neal better not let this guy slip thru his fingers as he's my favorite journey member. Singing and drumming simultaneously is hard, believe me, I've never done it. I can't sing or play drums so it looks hard to me
Cyndy Klenk I can't help but agree with you on that, me being a monster drummer myself. I just keep it a secret. But, I probably should make it known. Then I could make money like Dean. And, good drummers always enjoy what they're doing. Yes, indeed, Dean is a monster drummer w/quite a set of pipes.
I am a Arnel convert, especially after Steve gave him his blessing at the RRHOF ( Where Arnel got screwed by the RRHOF IMHO ) but Deen blows this out of the water. Amazing Talent and Gifted to be able to play the intricate timing of the drums on this track as created by another master, Steve Smith, one of the premier drummers on the planet. Deen incredibly delivers Steve Perry's vocals perfectly, and plays the drums perfectly, both at the same time. That, is 1 in about 8 Billion. Hats off to you Deeno, for your recovery beating the demons, and for your incredible musicianship. Rock On Sir !!!
Damn, I can't believe how good this was considering Steve Perry is impossible to replace. Nothing but respect for Deen. Never realized how solid he was Drumming and Singing. Saw them last with Steve Augeri but this piece was not covered.
This is my favorite journey song, I've never heard this version and all l can say is wow.....that guy has incredible range and the spin that he put on it is amazing.
I don't think Deen could've delivered this any better...Superb...His choices vocally, his drums. It just ALL worked on this iconic Ballad of JOURNEY'S 💖
Please don't give up on Deen. The man has amazing chops and drum skills. He would be my choice for the lead singer. Embrace him as he goes through this and help anyway you can until his return to Journey
Deen is the very best singer/drummer in the business - amazing talent - go listen to his excellent vocals as lead singer on the new album with Revolution Saints - check out the song "In the Name of the Father" - Deen is awesome !!
Just hearing he fell into drugs again. If this is true - SO SAD! He's a great person, dad, player, singer. He got clean many years ago - let's pray he gets the strength to get through this awful time and comes back to everyone.
this dude is by far the most talented individual to ever grace journeys stage!!!!! absolute shame to see him go! hope he gets his problems worked out and makes a return to journey! shit, steve smith has been in journey three different times...i guess once your family, your always family. no matter how disfunctional the family gets!!!
Ashley Simpson at 2:15 and 3:10 he got the lyrics reversed. I am still a fan and totally entertained, but.... At 3:42. you hear Bass as Russ sort of remembers to play? I wonder if all this is synched, except the drums.
As a drummer and a big fan of Journey, always wondered very much why they didn’t just do the Night Ranger thing and let Dean be the lead on so many classic Journey songs. I’ve played and sang this song so much, I know it’s a gift, just share this song .....
I had never heard this song or knew who Deen was until I saw Journey live and he sung this. I've listened to Arnel and Steve's live versions also. (Both amazing) But there's just something about when Deen sings it you feel the emotion more...
I've become enamored with his deep voice since listening to "Afterglow." It's surprising that it's not more widely recognized. Deen has a promising future ahead. Move forward, your future is luminous, and perhaps you and Stephen could collaborate.

His timing is straight on.

@@TheDude1764 Hi there, you should be very proud of yourself!!! I am very happy about Deen and for you too!
@@TheDude1764 he is back with Journey? Just as drummer or sharing singing duties with Arnel now too?

Deen should be the lead vocalist for Journey. He is right up there with what Steve Perry's voice used to be
Amazing
Deen Castronovo is in his own right a.significant part of of any band ...journey is lucky to have Deen with all the drama ... apparently even Deen can't control the narrative of these guys ..greed set in ...
just saw them last night....IN WHAT WORLD DO YOU NOT HIRE THIS GUY AS THE LEAD VOCALIST!!!!
I just came across this version of Still They Ride. Wow, this dude's vocal range on this is eerily spine tingling. Awesome!
I've known deeno since highschool in Oregon and he has always been destined for amazing wonders
I agree, his peak sounds just like steve perry, I can barely tell them apart the difference is only by watching this video! put this video on and walk away & listen you'll swear it was steve perry singing this when it's not simply Amazing!
Totally Awesome
Too good. Such an under-rated Deen . Share!
I 1000% percent again
Just my opinion, but Deen's voice sounds more like Perry then Arnel... absolutely amazing how much he sounds like Perry, it's almost spooky!.. and playing drums at the same time. In awe of this man..
Agreed, he does. Love Deen. Hopefully Jonathan and Neil can get their shit together so we can continue to hear him.
So damn good. Dude is a solid musician, and does more justice to the song than I've hears anyone other than Perry do.
Absolutely. Deen and Steve are two of the very best singers to ever to grace a stage.
every time Deen sings i get goose bumps. what a voice & performer.
No disrespect to Steve Perry, but Dean doing this song sounds better to me.
Charlie Staton Your opinion, but there’s millions of people that would say otherwise.

If you close your eyes while listening to Deen sing, you can literally drift away. Incredible voice.
💯 agreed too
He's a good vocalist but Steve Perry is the voice of Journey
@@rontalbot311 Perry cannot be compared to anyone because noone can compare to him. Totally agree.

@@glbrk303 I sooooo agree!!!
Just like he owns “Mother, Father.” Definitely his signature song.
❤
Wow. I didnt expect that. Deen just blew me away.
He's great on drums and have an incredible voice as well. I pray he'll get his life back together and come back to the group.
Ophelia he did, check out Revolution Saints

Y'all know that comment was 5 years ago right?
INDEED!! Deen ! We the fans love you!! Please keep fighting ! You are INCREDIBLE!!!
He's playing NYC homecoming concert right now
What a voice! Always liked Augieri & Pinel but Deen sounds most like Steve Perry.
+robert flynn I agree! Deen sounds so much like Perry, it's unreal.
Totally. Have always thought that too.
True. He has more of Steve's soul sound and raspy sounds.
It Pineda!
Just saw this video today and I’m amazed at how much he sounds like Steve Perry - this song brings back so many memories for me
I adore this man!!! As a drummer he is the bomb.....as a singer...well he could do all the songs for Journey and maybe I would go see them again!!! Deen RULES!!!
The thing about Deen is that he has that same soulfulness to his voice that Perry had, but he's also his own voice as well, if that makes sense.
I love Deen's version the best!love the inflections in his vocals!
I've been a true Steve Perry fan since the 1980's..... Still true until this day. However, I'm caught in a spell great performance here : )
Absolutely awesome! Deens voice is incredible!

Deen has been back with Journey for over a year now.
Glad he's now touring with Journey again. We saw him a month ago today in Las Cruces, NM, and he was amazing!
I'm from Salem and consider Deen a close friend. He's the most lovable, affable and genuine man I know.
Give him a hug for us, tell him we support him, and encourage him to tour with Revolution Saints on the mic! So glad he can finally put this nightmare behind him and move on with his life.
Yes he is!!!
Deen is a great vocalist that is quite humble and gives credit to Steve for paving the way!
I Love Journey and I Absolutely Think that the Drummer Deen is an ABSOLUTE AMAZING Singer
This drummer/singer is the only reason I would go see journey. Neal better not let this guy slip thru his fingers as he's my favorite journey member. Singing and drumming simultaneously is hard, believe me, I've never done it. I can't sing or play drums so it looks hard to me

Great voice and obviously great on the drums.
Just an amazing voice. Wow. The best version of this song. Fantastic
He is a mind blowing singer !!!!!!!!!
Neal's live soloing is so accurate to the original recordings.....he's such an amazing and inspirational player.
Nobody plays an emotional solo like Neal Schon....The master!
Luv this guy! What talent!!!
love this man , he is amazing, the song I can listening over and over.
This is my favorite journey song, I've never heard this version and all l can say is wow.....that guy has incredible range and the spin that he put on it is amazing.
what a great voice!! I can't stop listening over and over again. wowww
I was lucky enough to hear him sing keep on Running, what amazing talanet this man has. God Bless you always Deen, keep on Running!
So glad Deen is back with Journey, this man is awesome, his vocals while playing the drums is to me the best in the business!!!
Great drummer. Great vocalist. Luv this dude!
Glad Dean got his head and life straight and back in the band.
I've just recently discovered Deen and I'm obsessed! What a phenomenal talent
I don't think Deen could've delivered this any better...Superb...His choices vocally, his drums. It just ALL worked on this iconic
Ballad of JOURNEY'S 💖
Deen kills on this. Such a talented Drummer with incredible Vocals.
Please don't give up on Deen. The man has amazing chops and drum skills. He would be my choice for the lead singer. Embrace him as he goes through this and help anyway you can until his return to Journey
Deen is the very best singer/drummer in the business - amazing talent - go listen to his excellent vocals as lead singer on the new album with Revolution Saints - check out the song "In the Name of the Father" - Deen is awesome !!
Thanks for the info about Revolution Saints...love their music!
ohhhhh my gdness he is freakin phenomenal! !!!!! truly he is!!!!
Absolutely LOVE this version! 😍
Playing drums and singing like a angel,,,,this Man got a beautiful voice 💓🥁🎵🎶
Holy shit , I’ve searched for this video for ever!! THANK YOU!!!
Bucket list worthy of a man to meet and thank for his life, be it the good the bad and the divine!
What a gift Deen brings to Journey his voice is awesome
A great example of beautiful open-vowel (Ah) singing on the sustained notes. Vocally, he is undeniably relaxed. Love this ❤️
Beautiful song and voice
I've watched this 100X and I'll keep doing it over and over again...simply the best vocal performance by a drummer...period.
This man absolutely NAILS this song. A dead ringer for Steve Perry. So amazing!
Beautiful song and amazing performance by Deen (and the rest)!
So glad he’s back in the band… had to come back and check out this masterpiece. More like a master class!!
Amazing....I'm speechless.
So effortless....so beautiful....DEEN your a rock GOD!!!
Two thumps way up for Deen 👍🏼👍🏼.
He's got some pipes, amazing!!!
A good singer, A good drummer. Ill never understand how you can do both at the same time.
I don't know how the Hell U drum and sing either.....Deen certainly shows how tho'!
Just hearing he fell into drugs again. If this is true - SO SAD! He's a great person, dad, player, singer. He got clean many years ago - let's pray he gets the strength to get through this awful time and comes back to everyone.
What a voice! He's awesome!
Dean Castronovo sounded a lot like Steve Perry. I miss both.
still i ride a motorcycle in my dreams memmories wich will never fade omg this is what i needed today
this dude is by far the most talented individual to ever grace journeys stage!!!!! absolute shame to see him go!
hope he gets his problems worked out and makes a return to journey! shit, steve smith has been in journey three different times...i guess once your family, your always family. no matter how disfunctional the family gets!!!
unbelievable talent to be able to pull this off
I still can't believe how well he sings this. I wonder how much (if any) was touched or tuned up in post production.
he is legit- seen him live he is amazing
Beautiful
Ashley Simpson at 2:15 and 3:10 he got the lyrics reversed. I am still a fan and totally entertained, but.... At 3:42. you hear Bass as Russ sort of remembers to play? I wonder if all this is synched, except the drums.
It's too perfect.
None
These are tough shoes to fill but DEEN you wear them better then anyone else!!! Thank You
I love Dean's voice. He has a tremendous voice. His vocals are AMAZINGGreat voice!!!!
I love Steve Perry as much as the next person, but let's be fair, there is something about Deen's voice totally impressed!
I love his singing....it soothes my soul!!
This ole town, ain't the same,
Now, nobody knows his name.
Times have changed,
Still he rides. Ride on Deeno, head up high,
Into the night.
Like having two Ace pitchers. Unstoppable!
As a drummer and a big fan of Journey, always wondered very much why they didn’t just do the Night Ranger thing and let Dean be the lead on so many classic Journey songs. I’ve played and sang this song so much, I know it’s a gift, just share this song .....
Im now a fan of Deen Castronovo. Beautiful voice beautiful name
OMG.. 2019 & HEARING DEEN SING FOR THE FIRST TIME.. I love this song and I can't believe how great he sings it.. Amazing..
I had never heard this song or knew who Deen was until I saw Journey live and he sung this. I've listened to Arnel and Steve's live versions also. (Both amazing) But there's just something about when Deen sings it you feel the emotion more...
wow what a great take of this song. . .very true to feel.
Love this!! Deen is so underrated
I've become enamored with his deep voice since listening to "Afterglow." It's surprising that it's not more widely recognized. Deen has a promising future ahead. Move forward, your future is luminous, and perhaps you and Stephen could collaborate.
Shallow comment ahead.... I like Deen's hair better with his natural curls than his straightened spikes. UH-MAZING PERFORMANCE
Brutha is phenomenal!!! Doesn't even sound winded at all from playing too.Smooth as frikken butta.
Beautiful voice and drumming.
LOVE THIS SONG.....DEEN SOUNDS AWESOME🎸🎸🎤🎤
Love this! He's fantastic!
Dean is finally out front on vocals with a new band "Revolution Saints"
Sorry if I don't know the whole story. But how did DEEN not become the best Journey singer??? OMG so much "soul" in his voice.
Hat´s off Mr. Deen Castronovo. Many compliments sir
the most talented member of Journey
We all go through shit. He's still one of the very BEST.
