I've been asked why if the video is from 2007, it says 1994 in the title. I will explain: When I posted this video 14 years ago, UA-cam had the option to reply to any video with another video of your own. I was watching a video of the original band, Survivor, with the original singer Jimi Jameson (RIP). Everybody was commenting on that video how great was the original singer doing. In my opinion Arnel did the song 10 times better than the original. So I found this video, downloaded it and posted it as a reply to the original. The title you see refers back to that other video from 1994.
From Texas. I’ve watched this 100s of times. Breathtaking. Still watching Nov 15 2022. He has been the frontman for Journey 15 years now, longer than any other lead singer. Journey will be on tour again in 2023 to celebrate their 50th anniversary. They put on an amazing show and Arnel's voice still takes my breath away. He was 39 in this video, he is 55 now and wonderful performer.
The guy is a major success story grew up poor he was broke as fk before journey brought him in he definitely deserves the credit he gets music literally saved his life
It was meant to be. He did gigs in Hong Kong where a lot of casinos are, like other Filipino bands. During his stint in Hong Kong, that's when he got hooked on drugs. Lost his voice, have to go home. Poor as dirt. Decided to change. Most of the videos here were after he decided to straighten up. Might have done gigs in Olongapo where the US Naval base was and Pampanga, where the US Air Base was. You might FIND that story here on You Tube. I believe the info about drugs was from an interview with him.
The searched is over, Neal Schon found you..and now you are the longest frontman band Journey..Amazing voice and superb performsnce...Lov lots to ur Band♥️♥️♥️♥️
Arnel - Don't ever listen to the haters. Unfortunately, they happen to be the most vocal among us. Your voice has a great tone. You are the one for a reason!
C noel Gomez Ang daan sa kinatatayoan ni AP ngayon c noel lahat nag upload ng mga video ni Arnel sa mismong yt channel ni noel nung nakita ni Neil schon Kung Gano kagaling c AP nag email agad c Neil Kay noel at hiningian c noel ng details Kung panu macontact c AP at mismong c noel nagsabi nun Kay AP na iniimbitahan ka ng journey ng Isang linggong ensayo pero d naniwala agad c AP non kz Sabi pa nga nya nanloloko lng Yan mismong c AP pa Ang nagsabi na Ilang beses na kz syang na scam pero pinatatag ni noel c AP try mo lng daw Wala nmang mawawala baka ito ay totoo na inilihim ni AP Ang paglipad nya para Kung sakaling scam daw d sya mapapahiya Kaya nagpapasalamat c AP Kay noel Kung ano narating nya ngayon
i've been following Arnel since he hit the US, and yes the voice is amazing but the whole story of his finding and his life experience is what is truly amazing.
Imagine? This is the first song of Where Neil Schon the founder of Journey who listened to Arnel. They are both destined to meet. Indeed THE SEARCH IS OVER for Neil Schon to find a new lead singer of their band Journey.
Not this song, the song ever since the world began, in the video there is written "BAGAVERDE" on the screen behind him, that was uploaded year 2007 with the song faithfully, that was schon saw it
On this video AP looked drained already after singing his heart out till this wee hours. Imagined this video was almost 3 am and he still up and singing his heart out. But rewarded of once in a lifetime opportunity he could never imagined.
i keep coming back to this clip.loved his charisma.bet the one who kissed him can't believe it when he saw arnel with journey.probably feel the luckiest for daring to go upstage and kiss him.the one urging him in the background must have regrets.sabi nya...SAYANG!!!if i know pa lamang!!!lols
I love Arnel! I think it is so AWESOME that now his dream is coming true, and that he gets to sing with JOURNEY. He truly does an AWESOME job. I saw them in New Orleans, LA in Sept 2009, and have tickets to see them this Sept 2011 as well. He is an excellent entertainer! Hearing him sing this song by Survivor just shows me even more how talented he is. Go Arnel! Don't let anyone put you down.....keep living your dream! Your search is over.....keep on Rocking it out with JOURNEY!!
proud to be pinoy!!!grabe story ni arnel sana panoorin nyo sa probe!!!God Bless You Arnel Pineda and your Family...at sa taong ng-post ng mga video nya kundi dahil seo di sya mddiscover!!mabuhay ka...
you go to a live bar in stockholm, london, tokio, hong kong, geneva, dubai.. in fact every damn city in the world you'll always see filipino cover bands. yes they're that good!
I just noticed the time stamp..its 2:37am! Damn! Wonder how long he's been singing that night. When you love your job there's no time difference i guess. Amazing Arnel!!!!
Yes in the Philippines they have a certain time that they can perform on those music bars 1hr per band then change band, they won't close until customers are around, @ 3AM no more band performing just a loud sounds from variety of songs.
if Arnel Pineda is not FAMOUS maybe these people won't give any bad comments.. coz sumtyms pple give bad comments if they cant reach who'm they're giving their comments.. ARNEL IS SIMPLE THE BEST..
i have to disagree jhon is what i think... for me he nailed it! even those high notes were hit.. yes this really a difficult song but still he did it well... he did it LIVE.. im a fan of survivor and i really idolize jimi... aside from the fact that we are both goodlooking but we both loves to sing... however i watched some LIVE videos of survivor performing this song and i may say i am much more satisfied with arnel's performance.. i mean LIVE is kinda different with those recorded ones.. :)
You're a monster Arnel! You're damn good than the original version of that! Loved it! May God bless and protect you all the time. As well your family and the band...
I still admire you sir our talented international singer your the best amzingggggg Arnel Pineda our very own Pinoy has own originality style of singing even revive he can more ahigh note very very amazing take note he is very cuteeeeee
OMG... I heard Survivor sing this song live and Arnel sings it about 100 times better live. Just like the soundtrack :) Arnel sounds more like Survivor than Survivor. LOL!
Napaka brutal talaga ng song ng survivor....halos maputol na hininga n arnel...kahit sa mga live concert mg original singer ng survivor ay hihingalin mismo sa kanyang sariling kanta...pro cguro nuon yon kc ngayon iba na boses n arnel...mas may matataas na syang falsetto.

A voice like arnel is a true gift from God..to be shared
two in the morning, with this camera and sound quality and yet his voice is still shining! just wow!
2:00 in the morning, after singing 3 to 4 hours before doing that song, which was the last one on their set list. That level is insane.
Arnel - Don't ever listen to the haters. Unfortunately, they happen to be the most vocal among us. Your voice has a great tone. You are the one for a reason!
This is the video that made Neil Shon says "Wow".:)
Jimi.jameson smile upon in heaven while watching and hear arnel sing his masterpiece
Even with the bad sound quality it's quite clear arnel's got an amazingly strong and clear voice. Glad Neil Shoen found him! Long live Journey

Yes
Yes, arnel is a perfect match for journey as they lead singer
Mali kundi dahil Kay noel Gomez walang Arnel sa journey

@@beermoyvlogs1377 ang sinasabi niya yong song na nkita ni Neil Kasama nung faithfully Hindi yong Kung sino nag upload
Napakahumble talaga ni Arnwl,dj mayabang kahit sikat na sikat na🥰kaya mas lalong bine bless at minahal ng mga tao..
Omg this man has an incredible voice. It'd be an honor to see him sing live with Journey ♥️
Di nakakasawang pakinggan,1000x na ata 😍 ,april 26,2022
Best version of this song period …drop the mic still come back to it ever year
the best!!!! its breath taking!!! i cant help not to fall inlove with this performance!!!
I'm already in love hearing all his covers (kung puede pa nga ako manganak, baka napaglihian ko si Arnel Pineda)
His performance is trully breath taking, his versatility is phenomenal
This is just so good😍. Very hard song to sing only AP gave justice to it👏👏👏
This guy should do a cover album his covers of this and November rain are spot on
Beautiful voice! I have much love for Arnel!!!
Watching u idol from Athens Greece. Still watching January 2022.
Fantastic voice range and right on tune and pitch -effortless.

What a voice!!! Magical. I just hope him being on the Journey band wagon is not ruining it....
From Toronto I love listening to when arnel is singing
