Arnel by far is one the best vocalist that ever emerge in Asia , He is beginning to established his singing career here in USA but the problem is no matter how good you are , people criticize where you came from, who you are, what you are . Arnel has an amazing talent and some people just cant accept the fact that he can really compete with best singers out there.
@@josedanilosimpliciano4077 please don’t forget to Thank you Noel Gomez..he uploaded all 60 videos of AP until the wee hours of the night and when uploading still a challenge at the beginning of U Tube…without his effort APs talent could have gone unnoticed…
"God freaking Bless America. Arnel's the real Rock Star.. by show end, most of the 18k fans forgot Perry. "With perfect pitch, power & amazing resonance, Arnel floored the crowd. He's an American rock star w/a swooning crowd hanging on his perfectly tenored voice. He can carry an even higher pitch than Perry's trademark wail. He merges a F. Mercury smoothness with a D. Roth rocker style. Arnel had eclipsed Perry in both talent & enthusiasm" J. Blevins, Denver Post at sold-out concert
I think the reason why we're so addicted to arnel's videos is because everytime he sings he pours out his heart and soul in every word of the song and he gives his all to perform the song well. I congratulate you, arnel!!! You're one of the lucky ones...you don't only get to do the thing that you obviously love, you get paid for it too!!!
I love this song especially if it is sung by Arnel. Here in Chile, and there are many people who love the music of Journey that Arnel only sings in this band, the feeling that puts the singing does not compare with anything heard before Arnel Grande!
I used to think only John Farnham could do this song... until I stumbled into this! You have such a beautiful range. I just wish that you could have one original hit song that could truly ever be yours. You deserve a hit, man.
PWired review con't: "For two hours, Arnel's awesome tenor voice was in perfect pitch, hitting all the high notes & delivered powerful renditions of the classics & their new songs. Couple that with his fist pumps, high kicks, spinning, twirling & running from stage left to stage right & back, Arnel never let up to the end, completely at ease. He is more confident than ever before. Journey played solidly and were totally in sync throughout the concert."
Me still watching 2024 and wow Arnel never ceases to amaze me with his voice and you reallly can feel the meaning of the song. What a gifted beautiful soul❤
Ruben Nepales, Phil. Daily Inquirer "The LA crowd was constantly on its feet, cheered & whistled its appreciation for Arnel & Journey. Due to huge demand, a 2nd show was added & both were quick SOLD OUTS! Blessed w/a powerful voice, a higher pitch than SP & able to sustain difficult notes, Arnel instantly proved he deserved the lead vocalist spot & turning out to be the most effective & successful. The crazed fans smiled appreciatively at Arnel as his solid voice reverberated."
I tried...I really tried to look for other videos to watch but I keep coming back to yours. I've seen these soooo many times but they never get old! Your voice is so captivating, AP!
Oh my goodness, I accidentally saw this video and it was a WOW performance of Arnel Pineda-- What an incredible talent this guy got, and this video was even BEFORE joining Journey as frontman !! NO Wonder N Schon the iconic N Schon of Journey pinpoint right away that HE FOUND the GUY for Journey as Lead singer the moment he saw approx 40 videos of Arnel singing -- that's how he was found--by YT !! Journey got the jackpot when they saw Arnel Pineda-- AP deserved it--now, he has been a frontman for Journey for 15 YEARS and counting !!Can't wait to see Journey LIVE Concert again soon in Florida, this April 2022 !! Journey with AP rocks!
Wow, Thank you Arnel, John is the best singer to ever happen in Australia, truly world class, and the world missed it. You nail it so well, you're now an onrey aussie ;-) Hopefully I see you next time I'm in the filo's. My wife n kids are there, and I get there at least four times a year. Also I enjoy going around and helping out the old and disabled. We have a great time, the smiles and gratitude are worth every cent xo Thank you for being such an inspiration
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.
WOW! All I can say is WOW! FINALLY Journey (one of my favorite bands in the world) has a singer again. Not since Perry has anyone been able to really fill in that spot (Augeri did an ok job, but he was all studio, like he couldn't hack it). This guy...THIS guy is the REAL DEAL. I can't wait to hear the new CD!! Best of luck man, it's a dream come true for you I'm sure!
No matter what old song he sings, he brings such a freshness and passion with it, til you can appreciate the original singer but fall in love with AP's vocals and version..the more you listen, the more you want to hear...the man is amazing.
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 new singer has fans 'Believin'" "Pineda's movements, facial expressions & vocal delivery .. got the job done & the thousands of fans weren't disappointed. "He hit every high note, unlike another former Journey singer & Pineda sang to the audience, instead of over it. He made eye contact & he hit those soaring notes" Scott Iwasaki, Deseret News UT.. Indeed "the incredible pipes of their Filipino lead singer"... Arnel as admired by main industry commentator Bob Lefsetz
K. Swindell, Greenville Daily Reflector NC at SOLD OUT concert: "Pineda's vocals are eerily similar to SP & hit every high note with precision. It was an action-packed performance as Arnel bounded from one side of the stage to the other, engaging the crowd while singing. The whole show had cell phones, glo sticks and lighters raised throughout the venue. And with the new songs, Journey may just be adding some new classics to their repertoire that's been rocking since 1975."
all i can say bout this dude!HES ONE OF A KIND! what a great gift from God he had!!! and ive noticed hes not just singing by himself.but singing his songs with emotion...GALING NG TLGA NG PINOY!
Damn.... Arnel's voice is like Tsunami. It will leave your heart in the state of calamity. Cutting my nerves in pieces. Burn me into ashhhhh... that's how powerful his voice with deep emotion. Never knew what's the meaning of this song till I watched this version.. so deep...
@@rosli2869 hahaha ako naman opposite! I just found him in Twitter haha. Nakaka addict yong boses niya grabeh! Gumawa talaga ako ng fan account for him at iba din sa boys natin haha

Music Critic Kevin Johnson, St Louis POST-DISPATCH at SOLD OUT SHOW: "Arnel Pineda, the diminutive dynamo was quickly embraced by the fans and Journey knew what they were up to in bringing him on. The key to Pineda is that vocally he's a near dead ringer for the soulful Perry. Close your eyes and that's Perry again on the classic songs. But what's also interesting is that on the new songs, Pineda manages to carve out his own unique identity."

this is a god given talent,full of emotion,very soulful and its coming from the heart.After listening to Arnel,I dont want to listen to anybody else...
another strong performance by arnel. with just the keyboard playing as background, arnel's good voice quality and power are easily noticed in this song. magaling, mahusay talaga.
may katuwiran ka diyan, kapatid..kapag pinatulan mo siya( alam mo na kung sino yon), pati ikaw mahahawa sa kanyang kahibangan. Hayaan natin siyang masalimuotan sa kaiintindi ng ating panulat at siya ang magmukhang hangal. Nakakatorture din palang patulan siya..di siya papatalo hanggat may pumapansin at namumuhi sa kanya... Life is too short to delve on negative thoughts.. Mabuhay ang Journey at ang ating idolo!!
CantStopRockinDOTcom con't: "As Arnel was introduced as the thrill from Manila, there was a sea of people with cell phones & lighters lit up, swaying to the music. It was a beautiful sight. Music is so powerful and it can bring people together especially the old & new Journey fans. With the packed frenzied crowd, this was an incredible show. Arnel is a wonderful addition to Journey & he is having the time of his life."
MediaSpecDOTcom at SOLD OUT SHOW: "Journey Triumphantly Returns. It's the next evolution of Journey, and now Arnel Pineda brings a classic feel with some new energy. It's the best they've been since Steve Perry. It was all topped off by Arnel's masterful vocal work & one of his more powerful performances. The Wilson sisters & Heart even dedicated one of their biggest hits, "These Dreams" to new Journey singer, Arnel Pineda."
The great Steve P's at his Rockin' chair. That's past, new Generation's here & life's fair. If U harbor bitterness with Life & it's Journey here-there, Happiness and the sound of music will dock elsewhere. Change is the law of life & those who look only to the past are certain to miss the present & the future joys & blast. Now, it's the Arnel & life's Journey fun fling We fully celebrate as our hearts sing. Today, Let's do it Bad-2-da'Bone, at Life & Journey's Party Zone!
I have a feeling that those who are posting negative comments are his fellow Filipino musicians/artists feeling that they've been robbed somehow by Arnel. crab mentality.....
TampaBayDOTcom: "ARNEL IS THE REAL DEAL! "New lead singer Arnel Pineda worked the stage like a seasoned front-man, no small task in a steamy Florida summer night. With more & more sold out shows, he's now the face of the band. The harmonizing by the band members sent chills straight from your feet to your brain stem. Journey still performs as well today as any point in their careers. "This is the summer tour to beat right now. If this passes within 500 miles of you, go!"
ABSOLUTELY Beautiful Arnel... your voice is AMAZING and gives me chills literally... and SO GLAD you brought my #1 FAV band "back", Journey... you guys ROCK ON!
Ipresionante, primera vez que escucho cantar con tanta pasion y sentimiento , me emociona escucharlo cantar, sin duda alguna lo mejor que escuchado en años...
He can change his high soaring voice smooth or raspy in any song he sing. Amazing voice it's a God given talent for us to enjoy. Bravo! Arnel, cant wait to see you Live in Concert here in Houston TX.
this pinoy has a great voice,awesome passion in singing,raw talent indeed,it would really blow me away if someone would say that he has no formal training in music or voice lessons before..!!!!
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.
who could have predicted that this soul singer will become a future rockstar? Soul to rockstar? that's crazy... but it's a rockin' idea... for the dedicated bashers, God Bless you...you cannot put a good man down.
Indeed, life's a big Journey. We're vibrant w/J-symphony. Flyin high w/the Journey merriment. Old & new Gens, all as 1...God-sent. We all share the Journey fun fling We celebrate as our hearts sing Life's what we make it & we do. We got J-excitement in full view
Adam Graham, Detroit News: "Arnel Pineda is a smart choice. His wide-eyed earnestness fits in well with the band, whose sincerity & lack of pretense has always been a major selling point." Arnel delivered vocally. Journey still has considerable muscle & sounded like a certified rock powerhouse that really got the audience pumping its fists. Pineda was able to capably fill those big shoes left for him by Perry, & the audience was treated to a deft 1-2-3 punch of power ballad heaven."
"The Journey of Arnel Pineda "My respect for Journey has grown enormously. Its because they choose Arnel from total obscurity. Even a hardened old critic like myself is a sucker for a rags to riches story. This one is of particular interest to me because dammit, Arnel can SING, REALLY can sing. Revelation w/ Arnel is edgier than most of their previous stuff. The world wins, Arnel will be huge! Rock n Roll really is the last remaining street of dreams." PatrickHawkeDOTcom
"mang jaime" is so amazing isn't he guys?he still insists he knows everything..he has so much hatred in his heart,or maybe envy? I am not singer, but a good listener, I can tell by simply listening to high octaves and powerful vibratos,this pinoy is good....
mang jimmy is so proud of his kids who are doing fine in school,that's fine,there's a good chance that the kids won't grow up to be like their parents...hokey vah fafa jimbo ??come to my place,chuchupainkita !!!
it was his mimicking style Neil Schon discover Arnel P.no doubt he is a great singer with an amazing voice an amazing talent..with that style he become famous..Hurray for AP
Keep on listening, sarap Kasi pakinggan NG voice mo💞💞😊😊👏👏god is so good talaga biniyayaan ka NG gintong boses. Take care of that. And stay humble. God bless🙏🙏
The only male singer I know that can sing "HEART" songs in the original key!!! Daig pa nga niya 'yung ibang female vocalists that tries to sing "ALONE" or "WHAT ABOUT LOVE". I've listened to almost every song he has here on TH-cam & couldn't believe this guy's vocal skills. Be it Aerosmith, Bryan Adams, Air Supply, TOTO, etc. YOU NAME IT, HE CAN SING IT!!!
Right on ArnelsGirl.. The positive music industry reviews keep coming from around the world... Journey's new Revelation and lineup with exciting Arnel Pineda: "THE BEST Journey album in 25 years." Howard Cohen, Miami Herald
"It's crazy frightening what Pineda can do. What was plainly evident Wednesday night is that with Pineda, Journey has been revitalized. the sheer pleasure of 15,000 people singing along to "Lights" & "Faithfully" "All the same, Journey now performs with renewed vigor (Schon's solos soared as much as Pineda's voice), thanks to Pineda's inclusion. I think a lot of Journey fans might stop caring whether Steve Perry ever returns." Ben Wener, Orange Co. (CA) Register
S. Gibson, AllAccessMagazine at SOLD OUT Va. Beach show: "Arnel definitely commands your attention with an overwhelmingly energetic & interactive stage presence. He was jumping, interacting endlessly with all the crowd & his tornadic spinning could bring any house off its foundation. While the band was reveling with the packed crowd, Arnel returned the devotion by reaching out, shaking hands, signing autographs & embracing the fans One word for the show, AWESOME!!".
"A potent brew of crowd-pleasing hits, dynamic showmanship... Arnel proved a worthy successor.. with his continual leaping, spinning & mic flipping. Fans welcomed him with open arms, his wide smile, indefatigable stage presence & passionate performances won over any detractors. Most everyone was singing along, waving their arms, bobbing their heads and shouting along with the classic rockers." BAM, NewsOKdot com at a a sell-out crowd of 10,000 fans at the Zoo Amp.(Okla).
Long time Journey-fan. I think the band sounds better than ever. Totally not missing SP. And the word battle over whos the better singer suddenly stopped .... Strange or -)) All the best ..
Dan Stubbs, Manchester Evening News UK: "One thing was very clear: Arnel Pineda has a considerable set of pipes. Journey is a tight unit, with an arsenal of songs that range from power rock to power pop & even the occasional power ballad. Each song comes as a life-affirming blaze of glory. After the 2-hour set, most of the audience were smiling as widely as Pineda. It's a rarity for many US bands, but the concert got rock icons Brian May, Chris Squires & Jimmy Page in attendance"
MetalExpressRadio review: "Arnel at the helm is exceptional! "He protrudes quick a bit more energy on stage which gives the live setting a much needed injection of adrenaline! His exquisite melodic vocals exude an "eternal optimist" musical aura." "For the majority of die-hard Journey fans Revelation should definitely be a welcome addition. It has an upbeat melody & infectious hook-line which results in a "feel good" songs. It's a "no-brainer" must buy for all Journey fans!!! "
"Journey's uncanny new vocalist wows at Verizon" "This tireless spitfire with stringy black hair sound so eerily like Steve Perry. Words really don't do the uncanny resemblance justice. Pineda can nai, I mean flat-out perfectly nail all of Perry's helium-high notes. It's more so that he unerringly mimics everything else about his voice, the tonal qualities, the phrasing & inflections, the way it can be passionately gritty at the same time. " Ben Wener, Orange Co.(CA) Register

this is a god given talent,full of emotion,very soulful and its coming from the heart.After listening to Arnel,I dont want to listen to anybody else...
another strong performance by arnel. with just the keyboard playing as background, arnel's good voice quality and power are easily noticed in this song.
magaling, mahusay talaga.
may katuwiran ka diyan, kapatid..kapag pinatulan mo siya( alam mo na kung sino yon), pati ikaw mahahawa sa kanyang kahibangan. Hayaan natin siyang masalimuotan sa kaiintindi ng ating panulat at siya ang magmukhang hangal. Nakakatorture din palang patulan siya..di siya papatalo hanggat may pumapansin at namumuhi sa kanya...
Life is too short to delve on negative thoughts.. Mabuhay ang Journey at ang ating idolo!!

"As Arnel was introduced as the thrill from Manila, there was a sea of people with cell phones & lighters lit up, swaying to the music. It was a beautiful sight.
Music is so powerful and it can bring people together especially the old & new Journey fans.
With the packed frenzied crowd, this was an incredible show.
Arnel is a wonderful addition to Journey & he is having the time of his life."
arnel you make me cry... thanks... for this cover.. such a wonderful and beautiful voice you have.. love lots arnel..
you can really feel the song from the soul, the voice simply like heaven, and the projection delivers the meaning of the song.
MediaSpecDOTcom at SOLD OUT SHOW:
"Journey Triumphantly Returns.
It's the next evolution of Journey, and now Arnel Pineda brings a classic feel with some new energy. It's the best they've been since Steve Perry.
It was all topped off by Arnel's masterful vocal work & one of his more powerful performances.
The Wilson sisters & Heart even dedicated one of their biggest hits, "These Dreams" to new Journey singer, Arnel Pineda."
The great Steve P's at his Rockin' chair.
That's past, new Generation's here & life's fair.
If U harbor bitterness with Life & it's Journey here-there,
Happiness and the sound of music will dock elsewhere.
Change is the law of life & those who look only to the past
are certain to miss the present & the future joys & blast.
Now, it's the Arnel & life's Journey fun fling
We fully celebrate as our hearts sing.
Today, Let's do it Bad-2-da'Bone,
at Life & Journey's Party Zone!
Decades ago WAS a great SP-J excitement!
NOW w/Arnel mania, It's an absolute merriment.
Here we are mesmerized to Arnel-Journey addiction.
We get inspired with Arnel's dream coming to fruition.
The uplifting musical aura they radiate & amplify.
Keep our dreams and goals alive, they signify.
We unite as one for this cool celebration.
Life with Arnel/J is a sizzlin' sensation.
Hey all Let's Rock on here, there.
Whoop it we will everywhere!
ROCK ON!!
I have a feeling that those who are posting negative comments are his fellow Filipino musicians/artists feeling that they've been robbed somehow by Arnel. crab mentality.....
WOW, he could belt out those high notes so effortlessly like a Rock star. Ang galing galing!!!!
TampaBayDOTcom:
"ARNEL IS THE REAL DEAL!
"New lead singer Arnel Pineda worked the stage like a seasoned front-man, no small task in a steamy Florida summer night.
With more & more sold out shows, he's now the face of the band. The harmonizing by the band members sent chills straight from your feet to your brain stem.
Journey still performs as well today as any point in their careers.
"This is the summer tour to beat right now. If this passes within 500 miles of you, go!"
ABSOLUTELY Beautiful Arnel... your voice is AMAZING and gives me chills literally... and SO GLAD you brought my #1 FAV band "back", Journey... you guys ROCK ON!
Ipresionante, primera vez que escucho cantar con tanta pasion y sentimiento , me emociona escucharlo cantar, sin duda alguna lo mejor que escuchado en años...
He can change his high soaring voice smooth or raspy in any song he sing. Amazing voice it's a God given talent for us to enjoy. Bravo! Arnel, cant wait to see you Live in Concert here in Houston TX.
I couldn't agree more. He can be raspy or smooth if he wants or depends on the song that he sings.
this pinoy has a great voice,awesome passion in singing,raw talent indeed,it would really blow me away if someone would say that he has no formal training in music or voice lessons before..!!!!
unga oklabs,,kasi dun me wrk un iba,,hindi na din pla ako pede magsabi proud to be pinay wahhhh,,
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.
madamdamin...binabalik-balikan ko talaga 'to...
who could have predicted that this soul singer will become a future rockstar? Soul to rockstar? that's crazy... but it's a rockin' idea... for the dedicated bashers, God Bless you...you cannot put a good man down.
Indeed, life's a big Journey.
We're vibrant w/J-symphony.
Flyin high w/the Journey merriment.
Old & new Gens, all as 1...God-sent.
We all share the Journey fun fling
We celebrate as our hearts sing
Life's what we make it & we do.
We got J-excitement in full view
Adam Graham, Detroit News:
"Arnel Pineda is a smart choice. His wide-eyed earnestness fits in well with the band, whose sincerity & lack of pretense has always been a major selling point."
Arnel delivered vocally. Journey still has considerable muscle & sounded like a certified rock powerhouse that really got the audience pumping its fists.
Pineda was able to capably fill those big shoes left for him by Perry, & the audience was treated to a deft 1-2-3 punch of power ballad heaven."
i can't help myself listening to this beautiful rendition of the song.. amazing!!!Arnel..please tell Neal Schon..that i like him.
grabe... AMAYA
Pinoy na pinoy. astig.
parang bigla ko nangarap na sana kambal kita/ wehehehehe
"The Journey of Arnel Pineda
"My respect for Journey has grown enormously. Its because they choose Arnel from total obscurity.
Even a hardened old critic like myself is a sucker for a rags to riches story. This one is of particular interest to me because dammit, Arnel can SING, REALLY can sing.
Revelation w/ Arnel is edgier than most of their previous stuff.
The world wins, Arnel will be huge! Rock n Roll really is the last remaining street of dreams."

Please don't ask me
what am i thinking
It's about you....Beatiful song...
hi sir ang boses mo grabi halimaw!idol ka namin lahat ng mga singer!!!mayabang nlng ang di humanga sayo!god bless
"mang jaime" is so amazing isn't he guys?he still insists he knows everything..he has so much hatred in his heart,or maybe envy? I am not singer, but a good listener, I can tell by simply listening to high octaves and powerful vibratos,this pinoy is good....
It's 2020 covid -19 era, 3:08 Ohhhh-lalah... It's still...deliciously awesome.
Incredible! I would buy your cds.
Dang in ~~~~Sooo meaningful ~~~~~beautiful rendition~~~~
mang jimmy is so proud of his kids who are doing fine in school,that's fine,there's a good chance that the kids won't grow up to be like their parents...hokey vah fafa jimbo ??come to my place,chuchupainkita !!!
Sir Arnel, galing mo, it is my most favorite song.. sana makanta ko rin yan, the way u do. Bata pa ako, idol na kita. MOre Power.

Keep on listening, sarap Kasi pakinggan NG voice mo💞💞😊😊👏👏god is so good talaga biniyayaan ka NG gintong boses. Take care of that. And stay humble. God bless🙏🙏
The only male singer I know that can sing "HEART" songs in the original key!!! Daig pa nga niya 'yung ibang female vocalists that tries to sing "ALONE" or
"WHAT ABOUT LOVE".
I've listened to almost every song he has here on TH-cam & couldn't believe this guy's vocal skills. Be it Aerosmith, Bryan Adams, Air Supply, TOTO, etc.
YOU NAME IT, HE CAN SING IT!!!
Right on ArnelsGirl..
The positive music industry reviews keep coming from around the world...
Journey's new Revelation and lineup with exciting Arnel Pineda:
"THE BEST Journey album in 25 years."
Howard Cohen, Miami Herald
This is a beautiful song, we gentlemen leave their bickering and enjoy the music for this is that ....
Journey is back! Arnel is beyond words in their concerts.WOW!
"It's crazy frightening what Pineda can do.
What was plainly evident Wednesday night is that with Pineda, Journey has been revitalized. the sheer pleasure of 15,000 people singing along to "Lights" & "Faithfully"
"All the same, Journey now performs with renewed vigor (Schon's solos soared as much as Pineda's voice), thanks to Pineda's inclusion.
I think a lot of Journey fans might stop caring whether Steve Perry ever returns."
Ben Wener, Orange Co. (CA) Register
S. Gibson, AllAccessMagazine at SOLD OUT Va. Beach show:
"Arnel definitely commands your attention with an overwhelmingly energetic & interactive stage presence.
He was jumping, interacting endlessly with all the crowd & his tornadic spinning could bring any house off its foundation.
While the band was reveling with the packed crowd, Arnel returned the devotion by reaching out, shaking hands, signing autographs & embracing the fans
One word for the show, AWESOME!!".
"A potent brew of crowd-pleasing hits, dynamic showmanship...
Arnel proved a worthy successor.. with his continual leaping, spinning & mic flipping. Fans welcomed him with open arms, his wide smile, indefatigable stage presence & passionate performances won over any detractors.
Most everyone was singing along, waving their arms, bobbing their heads and shouting along with the classic rockers."
BAM, NewsOKdot com at a a sell-out crowd of 10,000 fans at the Zoo Amp.(Okla).
Great..hello arnel. Ganda ng voice mo..d nakakasaw
Great voice👏❤
Very touching rendition!
Best I've heard! Other than John, of course!
Long time Journey-fan. I think the band sounds better than ever. Totally not missing SP. And the word battle over whos the better singer suddenly stopped .... Strange or -))
All the best ..
Dan Stubbs, Manchester Evening News UK:
"One thing was very clear: Arnel Pineda has a considerable set of pipes. Journey is a tight unit, with an arsenal of songs that range from power rock to power pop & even the occasional power ballad.
Each song comes as a life-affirming blaze of glory. After the 2-hour set, most of the audience were smiling as widely as Pineda.
It's a rarity for many US bands, but the concert got rock icons Brian May, Chris Squires & Jimmy Page in attendance"
MetalExpressRadio review:
"Arnel at the helm is exceptional!
"He protrudes quick a bit more energy on stage which gives the live setting a much needed injection of adrenaline! His exquisite melodic vocals exude an "eternal optimist" musical aura."
"For the majority of die-hard Journey fans Revelation should definitely be a welcome addition. It has an upbeat melody & infectious hook-line which results in a "feel good" songs. It's a "no-brainer" must buy for all Journey fans!!! "
The most famous Filipino singer of all time...right there🤟🤟🤟
Kanta to ni john fsrnham.. Galing kahit anung kanta tlaga katain mo swak n swak sa boses mo
"Journey's uncanny new vocalist wows at Verizon"
"This tireless spitfire with stringy black hair sound so eerily like Steve Perry. Words really don't do the uncanny resemblance justice. Pineda can nai, I mean flat-out perfectly nail all of Perry's helium-high notes.
It's more so that he unerringly mimics everything else about his voice, the tonal qualities, the phrasing & inflections, the way it can be passionately gritty at the same time. "
