I’ve gotta admit I’m one of those die hard Perry fans and after 12 years, I just happened to have Arnels UA-cam page pop up on my feed and saw he was singing an oldie fav of mine. I’ve been sitting here watching one video after another of him singing some of my favorite songs from the past. Made me appreciate him in a way I never have before. I’m so sorry for all the comparisons everyone makes and honestly all the comparisons I’ve made myself. I see him now as a humble and beautiful singer with an amazing voice who is able to tackle so many genres and such a variety of singers and songs. I’ve realized he’s a super talented man who deserves so much more credit than he gets. I’m sorry Arnel that u were given such an impossible task to replace such a popular frontman…. Impossible situation for any singer to be put in. You are truly talented and I’ve loved every song I’ve sat and watched u sing this morning. I’ve seen comments ppl have made on Arnels performance on the Rock n roll hall of fame induction ceremony, but if we r being honest, Steve Perry can’t hit all those high notes he used to hit either. Sometimes I wonder if that’s why Steve really never joined back up with Journey. Ppl behind the band have always worked both Steve and Arnel like a work horse. They never got enough time off to rest their voices. A lot of greedy ppl behind the music ( or possibly Neal ) want the money to keep pumping out and it can ruin even the very best of voices or cause them to have a bad performance. It’s time for everyone to recognize what a treasure Arnel is and just enjoy his singing. You are pretty dang awesome Arnel !! Much love 💕💕💕💕💕
Your comment of Arnel made me cry because it's so lovely, sweet, kind, and thoughtful, most especially because you're a die hard Perry fan. Thank you so very much, Stacey Roberts.
Hi Stacey. You wrote it to the T. I am sure many people have same realizations as yours. ARNEL is PURE TALENT. And he is happy with where his talent has brought him. Thanks Stacey for writing such a long encouraging comment.
As a professional musician & singer I can tell you that very few of the big league singers have Arnel's degree of vocal control & expression. No one can perform perfectly all the time. The traveling, interviews & Social events that a front person is expected to do is far more punishing than most people realise. Managers, record companies & even other band members often expect miracles. I have played multi keyboards with a broken hand twice & I can tell you it was easy compared to singing for 2 hours straight with 2 broken ribs! Arnel, you have had to follow one of the greatest rock legends & I, as a professional who has sung some Journey's songs, I can say truthfully, you have gone beyond expectations. May you have all the success & happiness happiness you so definitely deserve.
He rocked every single note in Durant, Oklahoma on January 27th, the band was in top shape and as cohesive as wine and cheese. Don't believe all those nasty tumors. These men were professional and respectful and Jonathan Cain thanked Arnel profusely at the end of the show. These men were well-reheased and each piece of the Journey family deserves credit for whatever they bring to the band. Much ❤️...[ps. Sorry Arnel for so much screaming at Durant you were just that amazing. It was like Elvis to his fans. Let's see an #Elviscover2023
It has become clear to me that Arnel is not trying to be Steve. I think he never did. He simply happened to have the same voice range as that of Steve's. He's been like that when Journey found him. He simply put on the shoe left by Perry and helped bring Journey's songs back to life. This guy is simply talented. Nuff said.
I actually don't understand why people keeps saying he's immitating SP. They're both great vocalists but they don't sound alike. I checked out some of his cover videos before Journey and the way he sings with Journey is the way he reeeally sings. I don't see immitation. It's just how he really sound.
@@erlindafields8897 Arnel is a good singer but he is no Steve Perry. He isn’t trying to be either. That’s not a knock on Arnel. It’s fact. He doesn’t have the range of Perry. Castronovo had to sing certain songs live such as Mother, Father because Arnel didn’t have that range.
I started as a drummer at the age of 9 yrs.old in Mexico loving the bands like Santana and Chicago I grew up being a big fan of all the bands of that generation. Now I'm 58 yrs. old and still love now what is called classic rock and Arnel is not different than all the greatest singers that I grew up listening to Viva Arnel Pineda
He shouldn't be compared to Steve Perry anymore. He's been with us long enough we should simply rate him on his talent, which is absolutely amazing. Great job, as always, Arnel!
You're right! Besides, he is more than half a century old and still sounds fresh and vocally amazing.... His age does not affect his tenure as a vocalist on technical aspect...
Most of these die hard Perry loyalists never fails to compare him to Steve regardless of how many years already has gone by. Arnel has been with this band for over 12 years and I say its long overdue already to not give him the nudge of respect that he trully deserves. He's not there to compete or disrespect Steve, instead Arnel is there to preserve and continue the Journey legacy. He has his own amazing and beautiful unique sound! A rare talent! Respect!!!
Idt there's another Arnel Pineda after Steve Perry once he leave the band. That means Journey will just a classic and a legend after for no one can exceed what the present frontman did.
Arnel Pineda is not Steve Perry. He is a great vocalist and had contributed much for the existence of Journey up to now 2022. He is more gifted than Steve Perry, his passion in his singing and his tenacity to perform and give his best for his audience. And that he had lasted for more than 10 years, much more than Steve Perry and all the other vocalist who took over Steve Perry's place. The management got a lot of money from this band and from Arnel by making work almost concert after concert without giving enough time to rest his voice. Arnel Pineda is our pride and we will love and adore his gift of singing beautiful songs in his own style even long after he will be gone. He is a great pride of the Filipinos and nobody has the right to berate, hate, or downgrade, or compare him with Steve Perry. He is a great vocalist in his own right. We are proud of Arnel Pineda, forever! From a fan from the Philippines.
He is not more talented than Steve Perry, but he is definitely talented and wonderful in his own right when he sings as himself and does not try to please Journey fans.
Whether or not Arnel sounds like Steve Perry has been debated and argued over a decade now and I don't think it's that important anymore because he isn't exactly a Perry-clone and I seriously doubt that he himself thinks he is. With that said, we got a singer here that can sing just about anything and everything thrown at him and he does a great job with it, which is more than enough reason for us music fans to appreciate and treasure in this unusually challenging time. Thank you, Arnel.
Some were even funny saying that Arnel imitates Steve Perry's voice. Yes, he sounds like Steve because he was singing a song we used to hear from Steve. He didn't imitate Steve, he just sings with the passion of singing the song in its original style. Arnel is a versatile singer.
@@nhonochannel You can't say Arnel was never inspired by Steve Perry's singing before and after joining Journey since all the hit songs by the band were originally sung by Perry. To me, Arnel doesn't sound close enough to Perry to be his vocal clone, and yes, he's certainly very versatile in singing a wide range of catalog, which makes him an excellent singer in his own right.
Yeah me as a Filipino,most of our singers are all around,what I mean they are versatile,they are talented,,one of the example is Marcelito Pomoy,he can sing two voices,male/female,,,he-he-he even Manny Pacquiao can sing too...😁😁😁
Actually, Arnel can sing any songs he wanted, he can also sing Air Supply especially when he was young, he can sing a female songs 😁 He's our singer since 80's.
I imagine Journey and Toto were big rivals at the time... I'd be honored if some fans of 80s power ballads would take a listen to my acoustic piano & vocal performances of IS THIS LOVE by Whitesnake, WHO'S CRYING NOW by Journey, and AGAINST ALL ODDS by Phil Collins on my YT channel in tribute to the great music of the era. Live acoustic with no autotune or digital editing. Peace and stay safe in the '020s.
This is one of Toto's most powerful songs which gets me very emotional every time I hear their version. I never thought any one, except Toto, could bring me to tears doing this song! Arnel Arnel Arnel! Oh my! I'm in tears here! Journey is very very fortunate to have you in place of Steve. You have me just the way Steve had me for years and years! All my love to you and Journey, and to Steve 😊😊❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
May I please invite you to listen to some of Arnel's covers? with Chicago: You're my inspiration ua-cam.com/video/m4pz9yM_y50/v-deo.html with Steve Miller Band: Abracadabra ua-cam.com/video/rJqnrfAq_g0/v-deo.html with Toto: I won't hold you back ua-cam.com/video/WFtBE3Bk6MA/v-deo.html "Owe" ua-cam.com/video/eMiCdbH2OR8/v-deo.html with Chicago: You're my inspiration ua-cam.com/video/m4pz9yM_y50/v-deo.html with Steve Miller Band: Abracadabra ua-cam.com/video/rJqnrfAq_g0/v-deo.html with Toto: I won't hold you back ua-cam.com/video/WFtBE3Bk6MA/v-deo.html "Owe" ua-cam.com/video/eMiCdbH2OR8/v-deo.html
I’m a Journey and Steve Perry Fan, but this shows your own identity as a great singer. I know Filipinos can sing and they like their music, like we Italians! Well Done!
My son is 14 years old and he LOVES Journey since he was 7. Finally I had the opportunity to take him to a concert two days ago. He was fascinated by Arnel!! He said that Arnel has the energy of a 5 year old. He ask me that when Journey comes back to town he was to see them again. Thank you Arnel for being so humble and for keeping Journey alive!!!
It's not about Toto, it's not about Journey, it's about talent and musicianship. Arnel is a great singer, and the right man at the right time. I like to hear him singing and it is worth to keep this kind of music alive, the westcoast rock of the 80's.
But he can't come up with his own stuff that's any good. Just listen to the original recordings of the bands of the 80's, that's why they made and released those recordings. They deserve the accolades, royalties and credit. That's why the original recordings of Journey outsell anything that Journey did with Arnel. Cover singers rarely sell more than the original hit maker.
I agree. It's also a question of timing. Steve was the one and only as long this music was mainstream. Journey found their style with the vocal range of Steve. Arnel is not member of the foundation setup, and when the band found him, it was clear, what they want.
Arnel has his own music that he has written and is amazing. Checkout "Owe" , "Wrong", "Hiling" and recently "Soldiers he wrote especially for the frontline workers of Covid-19. Arnel is an amazing talent and soul. Grateful he does these performances to keep us all sane and smiling. He's working on his own songs right now also during the quarantine. Arnel keeps the "JOURNEY" going on.!!!
@@tamisutterer3004 You're pouring it on a little thick. I don't hear anything that great. His singing has improved, but the songwriting didn't impress me at all. Sorry, but it's not making it for me.. It's a little sappy and there isn't any really great melodies. It all seems pretty generic and nothing really stood out to me.
Arnel is so diverse. The man can literally sing anything by any artist. He has his own identity and sound as a vocalist. If just happens to fit like a glove for Journey.
Like you Stacey, I stumbled across Arnel after hearing a Journey song on the radio. After using the Magic Google Machine, I came to discover Arnel and am simply dumbfounded about his talent, humility and grace. I only hope Journey can continue to evolve with him. BTW, I've decided to contribute to Arnel's foundation for street kids in Manila. I encourage others to do so, as well.
And I must say that you did a phenomenal job, Adriano! I was waiting to see and hear how the orchestration in the later part of the song was going to be done. The violin was a nice touch for sure, but the sweeping strings and French horns was done very well! Great job on the production!
It was Steve Perry who gave the Journey band its distinctive legacy as the voice which catapulted them to fame. When he left the band, it was Arnel who revived them and has remained the voice of the band and its distinctive legacy sound which gives the band its continued popularity till now.
Indeed. But Steve left the building a long time ago. ARNEL earned his place #not_as_a_mimic but as his #original_highOctave self. That’s why some Steve fans are angry with ARNELs gift.
Back in 1983 I was a young Marine in Olongapo city looking for a good bar to hang out in. I remember being drawn to a club by the sound of a band covering Journey’s “Seperate Ways”. They sounded so good that the memory imprinted on my brain and I can hear it like if it were yesterday. I could swear now that it was Arnel but I have no way of truly knowing. In any case Arnel I love you for the magic of your voice and what you bring to the songs that “made” my life. Thank you!
It was indeed AP you heard, Olongapo city along Magsaysay Road was his neck of the wood and where all this things begun. He was much better then, when Journey hired him 11-12 years ago he was already beyond his prime...but still good enough.
Yes Leonardo .. you are right!! . Their group is AMO band !! I’ve know them since 1983 We are always watching them everytime they played in California Jam in olongapo city..😊😃😃 What a memories! 🤔😃🤗🤗
I remember those clubs as well, bands that sounded exactly like Journey, Scorpions, etc., you must have been on that same float I was with 31st MAU that got redirected to Beirut. Semper Fi!
Not only can he sing anything , he has a unique talent . He adapts to who ever or what song nor band ... I don’t mean he try’s to mimic cause he’s not but each band haves a special sound and he can sing to that spacific sound , that’s not eazy to do and I’m forever grateful of Neil for seeing that as well and bringing him here to the states !
One thing that I love with Arnel is his unique voice. It's soothing and very beautiful. I don't understand why people compare him to others, if you hear Arnel's voice in person you will understand what I mean.
Arnel, I am a Lead Vocalist myself but you my brother are amazing. Keep doing what you're doing. You are an inspiration! God bless you man...................PEACE and stay safe and well!!!!!!
If you were to watch Arnel in his cover band in the Philippines pre-Journey, you’d know Arnel has the unique ability to sing and sound like a variety of artists. Without a shadow of doubt, he was an excellent vocalist back then and the only difference now is that he has improved tremendously in his diction.
I agree with you! Arnel is talented and gifted in his own right. There are probably others like him in our country but Arnel is a league of his own. He is naturally gifted. I remember before Journey he had no musical training but he had been performing excellently which was why he caught Neal's attention.
Arnel Pineda sounds even better than the original singer. And that’s saying a lot. All the musicians spot on! I don’t always feel compelled to comment. But I watch this on repeat. I love Arnel. He’s a true rock star. 🎼💙🍂🍂⚡️🌻🌻🌻
I remember Arnel’s concert in Cebu and we’re just behind the front row seat where his wife was seated and the most memorable thing for me aside from the great voice is his child was there too...listening to his dad’s voice while in a baby stroller!
Yes, Arnel is very blessed. I like to believe that he his humble from the unfortunate of being homeless briefly. He is one of the best things coming from the PhilippinIes. I did not want to like Arnel's singing because of Steve Perry's. Arnel works hard in what he does in music. He truly a God's gifted singer musician. You know, Arnel deserves all the blessings coming to him.
SPOT ON! Phenomenal job by Arnel and this entire ensemble!! I was just in Cleveland on May 7th for the Toto+Journey show and it was awesome. Arnel, you totally made a believer out of me with your performance that night. 👍👍 People need to get off the Steve Perry bandwagon. He was awesome in his day...but he can't even sing most of those songs in their original key anymore, and you really do them justice! Keep up the good work.
@Kevin Widomski Well most people are over that now . I think with this new Album Freedom , Arnel should be considered a made man . His personal stamp is just as legitimate as Steve Perry’s . I will quote what a You Tuber said . “ Steve Perry made Journey . Arnel saved it . “
My fave personal Toto song after Africa, and sang no less by the legendary Arnel Pineda is so haunting. He has never copied Steve Perry; the fact is, he holds his rare talent and has a bigger heart than Perry. Look at his longevity, his heart, and his passion. This guy has our respect, period. Amazing cover with such a talented band.
Mr. Pineda your wonder voice has ment sooo much to so many people keeping all this music alive.. even Mr. Perry himself says he is grateful to you.. Rock on sir please keep rocking on👍👍👍👍
Superb cover Arnel. I’ve been a Toto (and Journey) fan for over 40 years and never thought anyone one can come close to Luke’s vocals, but you killed it.
WOW WOW WOW!! I love Toto and this is a great song, Just as good as Toto. But....Arnel is freakin Amazing. Its like Steve Perry when he was younger. When Arnel sings I really get choked up sometimes. He REALLY needs to put out a solo CD!!!
I would like Arnel to make solo album o different covers of famous songs Mark Lanegan made a great solo album called "IMMITATIONS" and they were good. Arnel has to make one.
Arnel Pineda is one of a kind, gifted with such a flexible voice. I can not compare him with other famous lead vocalist because he has his own trademark. Exemplary performance as always. Excellent Arnel. God Bless.
Excellent job Arnel! I've been a Steve Perry fan since the first time I heard him sing Lights. Been a huge fan of yours since the first time I seen you on UA-cam about the time Neil contacted you. You have an amazing voice. Don't let anyone tell you different. When you replaced Steve in Journey I had my doubts but, you stepped in and made those songs yours and you've been kicking ass ever since! Nothing but respect!
Arnel, this one of my favorite songs ever. You certainly captured the essence of the vocal. If it had never been heard before people would think this your song. I love both the original and your vocal version equally. Exceptional!
Arnel is absolutely awesome! Sings Journey, sings Chicago, sings Police, Sings Toto better than the original singers clear soaring tone; and yes Perry in his prime could step to Arnel, not the other way around. Arnel is more versatile and has the same power of Perry. Of course tone quality I would give the slight edge to Perry. Arnel = GOAT status: if you look at his story and his body of work; he has a case for GOAT. This band is killer too. Those back up vocalists are smooth as ice...love it. Great band makes a huge dif! Well done...please post more videos like this! Thank you Arnel for being great. The usa loves you man, I appreciate your versality, tonal dominance, and vocal power Arnel! You sound better every track that I hear. Great work bro!
Better than the original singers? Cetera, Sting, Steve Perry and Bobby Kimball made the songs that they performed vocals for incredibly special. I love Arnel but to state that he performs their songs better is a massive overstatement.
This really was one of Toto's masterpieces. The string/horn arrangements are nerve tingling, Timothy B Schmitt's backing vocals are killer, and Luke's heart crushing solo take your breath away. Vocally, this might have been Luke's best and most challenging, so for Arnel to attempt this shows some balls, and he nailed it. Fantastic job, Arnel!
@@wallypagayanan4555 yes and if you know Timothy's work you know he sang backup on this for Toto. Go listen to the original and you'll hear his voice. Then go read the album liner notes and you'll see his name. Dude, you can read liner notes, right? And it's Schmit, not Schmidt.
I have become a Big fan of Arnel. He's amazing! His vocals are clear and crisp and heartfelt. Also his philanthropy work for the Philippines is inspiring. He should get greater recognition than he's received. I hope Schon and Cain appreciate all he's done. 0:56
Everytime Ijo’s band would play at Shakey’s new frontier, we’d be always take the front seats just to listen to this guy who was just 15 yrs old at that time! Over pizza and fried chicken, we wondered where life would take him because he is so talented! God did not forsake him! So happy for what happened to Arnel! Hope to sit in front again in one of journey’s concerts!
Arnel, when I first heard your story, I knew it was a true miracle and opened my heart and mind to believing that the miracle I had always dreamt of for my own life could happen, as well. The next several years were extremely arduous for me, but my dream did become a reality. My miracle happened. Two years ago I met my True Love. Acclimating to such a powerfully intense energy as Divine Love has been overwhelming, a bit intimidating at times, and even down-right scary, but by the grace of God, our bond is growing deeper, stronger and sweeter each day. This song beautifully illustrates the process that mine and so many other Divine Masculines have undergone. That is, growing into a deeper understanding of the nature of Divine Love; like nature's fury, in all It's facets. I feel when Toto released this song, it introduced us to a world in which this attaining this level of Love was possible, and the timing in which you are performing it is perfectly in sync with realization of it between my Beloved and me. All these years of listening to Toto's version, I thought he was saying he wouldn't hold her back from leaving, and now, listening to your version, so eloquently laced with your energy, I realize that he is conveying to her that he won't hold her love at bay because now he is ready for the power, intensity, sweetness, and all else true love entails. A perfect anthem of where we are as a collective ushering in the New paradigm of Divine Love, and who better to render it than you...a vessel through whom God renders His Miracles, Light and Love through you and your lovely wife. With my deepest gratitude ~Crystal
What a wonderful post! Thank you. I love and appreciate your interpretation of what “holding back” means. Blessings for the continued expansion of your relationship and it’s highest and best unfoldment.
@@jennyc5100 Awwwwwwww Thank you so much! I re-read my post and discovered a few typos , which I corrected. I am visually impaired and don't always catch them. ❤🙏 Yes. I found it interesting that after all these years of hearing Toto sing it, hearing Arnel's rendition gave it a whole new feel... Light and positive instead of sad and hopeless. I was like, hey! It means he will let her get close! Really, really beautiful! Thank you for your sweet comments and wishes 💚💙🙏🌈🙏💖
II do not think there is anything Arnel cannot sing. Wow so impressed, and this comes from a chick who grew up with all this music! I listened to this and the original verse vs verse and I cannot tell one from the other. Kudos.
This is the most underrated song off of Toto IV. Roseanne and Africa kind of drowned out all the gems on this Grammy-winner but this has always been my favorite.
Arnel Pineda is truly an inspirational singer, with a God given talent who has touched the lives of millions, as a quality performer in the entertainment industry.
Dude, you are one of the few guys in this world I can listen to nonstop. The videos of you and your band back in the day before journey were mindnumbing. And I’m a singer myself with a 5 - 6 octave voice. God bless you. You deserve all the success you have and more.
Arnel’s voice is one of a kind... I close my eyes and i can literally feel and see the words he’s singing. He has the ability of making people dream... by seducing them with his incomparable lure chant. ❤️
Arnel, this is far from sloppy. I love Toto and all they do. Steve and the guys would be proud of this rendition. I love it. Do more Toto please. I like seeing interpretations of their song.
I have been overwhelmed by many, many 'covers' of songs on UA-cam, but this version of one of Toto's best songs just trumps the lot. Arnel's interpretation of the lyrics and vocals are sublime and the pianist has the principle scoring perfectly.
O Love Arnel Pineda♥️♥️♥️. Ele tem um brilho diferente, uma luz própria que encanta e transborda mais ainda em suas interpretações. Lindo! 🇧🇷♥️🇧🇷♥️🇧🇷♥️🇧🇷
I swear AP you sounds like the originals every-time !!! You deserve all what’s coming to you and most of these came already .. more kudos to you and your family. Be safe 😷😎🇺🇸♥️

From the day that Arnel became officially part of Journey as lead vocalist , Filipinos worldwide are really proud of him. Thumbs up.
Arnel can make a World Tour with any band that no longer has its original singer... Amazing vocalist !!!
Agree
100% correct
Well said
Exactly. He’s the one that brought him back to life
He rocked every single note in Durant, Oklahoma on January 27th, the band was in top shape and as cohesive as wine and cheese. Don't believe all those nasty tumors.

Spot on Mr. W
Totally agree 100💕
I am really a Steve Perry Fan but Arnel is the best thing that could have happened to Journey
I love both Steve and arnel but arnel is definitely more soul no doubt about it
Love both but i love arnels voice so soulful and pure and can sing anything. ❤️
I respect your opinion.
Hi sunny maus

Most of these die hard Perry loyalists never fails to compare him to Steve regardless of how many years already has gone by.

He's not there to compete or disrespect Steve, instead Arnel is there to preserve and continue the Journey legacy. He has his own amazing and beautiful unique sound! A rare talent! Respect!!!
No one will ever be Arnel Pineda. Just as no one will ever be Steve Perry. Both gems
True
Ditto!
Sinabi mo 👌
Arnel is a gem!
Idt there's another Arnel Pineda after Steve Perry once he leave the band. That means Journey will just a classic and a legend after for no one can exceed what the present frontman did.
Journey band is long dead till Arnel came, what a gem and a very talented one!
lol, Journey?
Arnel Pineda is not Steve Perry. He is a great vocalist and had contributed much for the existence of Journey up to now 2022. He is more gifted than Steve Perry, his passion in his singing and his tenacity to perform and give his best for his audience. And that he had lasted for more than 10 years, much more than Steve Perry and all the other vocalist who took over Steve Perry's place. The management got a lot of money from this band and from Arnel by making work almost concert after concert without giving enough time to rest his voice. Arnel Pineda is our pride and we will love and adore his gift of singing beautiful songs in his own style even long after he will be gone. He is a great pride of the Filipinos and nobody has the right to berate, hate, or downgrade, or compare him with Steve Perry. He is a great vocalist in his own right. We are proud of Arnel Pineda, forever! From a fan from the Philippines.
He is not more talented than Steve Perry, but he is definitely talented and wonderful in his own right when he sings as himself and does not try to please Journey fans.
❤
Whether or not Arnel sounds like Steve Perry has been debated and argued over a decade now and I don't think it's that important anymore because he isn't exactly a Perry-clone and I seriously doubt that he himself thinks he is. With that said, we got a singer here that can sing just about anything and everything thrown at him and he does a great job with it, which is more than enough reason for us music fans to appreciate and treasure in this unusually challenging time. Thank you, Arnel.
Some were even funny saying that Arnel imitates Steve Perry's voice. Yes, he sounds like Steve because he was singing a song we used to hear from Steve. He didn't imitate Steve, he just sings with the passion of singing the song in its original style. Arnel is a versatile singer.
@@nhonochannel You can't say Arnel was never inspired by Steve Perry's singing before and after joining Journey since all the hit songs by the band were originally sung by Perry. To me, Arnel doesn't sound close enough to Perry to be his vocal clone, and yes, he's certainly very versatile in singing a wide range of catalog, which makes him an excellent singer in his own right.
You can also watch Arnel singing Chicago's "You're my Inspiration" live in my channel.
UltraSupra well said... 🍺
Amen!
My brain cant handle the fact that a Journey vocalist does a Toto-song. Avesomeness overload.
Yeah me as a Filipino,most of our singers are all around,what I mean they are versatile,they are talented,,one of the example is Marcelito Pomoy,he can sing two voices,male/female,,,he-he-he even Manny Pacquiao can sing too...😁😁😁
Dagol Digol because: magic mic
Actually, Arnel can sing any songs he wanted, he can also sing Air Supply especially when he was young, he can sing a female songs 😁 He's our singer since 80's.
Wait till he belts out Heart songs
I imagine Journey and Toto were big rivals at the time... I'd be honored if some fans of 80s power ballads would take a listen to my acoustic piano & vocal performances of IS THIS LOVE by Whitesnake, WHO'S CRYING NOW by Journey, and AGAINST ALL ODDS by Phil Collins on my YT channel in tribute to the great music of the era. Live acoustic with no autotune or digital editing. Peace and stay safe in the '020s.
Arnel is a natural born singer. His ability to sing is coming from his heart and his vocal chords. Brilliant.
No! He is a karioke singer no originality.
I think Arnel could sing just about any song. He has a beautiful voice.
I agree Kim! From ballad to rock, this guy is an all-rounder!
Yes he does he is a good singer
He sang many rock song of the 80s before joining Journey

ABSOLUTELY!!!
This is one of Toto's most powerful songs which gets me very emotional every time I hear their version. I never thought any one, except Toto, could bring me to tears doing this song! Arnel Arnel Arnel! Oh my! I'm in tears here! Journey is very very fortunate to have you in place of Steve. You have me just the way Steve had me for years and years! All my love to you and Journey, and to Steve 😊😊❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Arnel really is extraordinary. Very talented.Any song he can give justice to the song.
Nobody is better than Steve
Arnel Pineda is a world class singer.
Arnel, you soothe the soul of a generation that finds itself longing for a glimpse of its past . Much gratitude to you. God bless you!
Nice! 🙏🏽

I’m a Journey and Steve Perry Fan, but this shows your own identity as a great singer. I know Filipinos can sing and they like their music, like we Italians! Well Done!
RobP thank uuuuii
Italians will surely be better than Pilipinos if only their official language is English
Filipinos can speak better english than Italians, because english is the second official language of The Philippines
@@dannybarcenas9701 ehehe second language in philippines is english please seach sir..
Arnel is great, so as the Italian musicians who accompanied him in this work of art.
Great music, guys, love it 👍❤️
My son is 14 years old and he LOVES Journey since he was 7. Finally I had the opportunity to take him to a concert two days ago. He was fascinated by Arnel!! He said that Arnel has the energy of a 5 year old. He ask me that when Journey comes back to town he was to see them again. Thank you Arnel for being so humble and for keeping Journey alive!!!
It's not about Toto, it's not about Journey, it's about talent and musicianship. Arnel is a great singer, and the right man at the right time. I like to hear him singing and it is worth to keep this kind of music alive, the westcoast rock of the 80's.
But he can't come up with his own stuff that's any good. Just listen to the original recordings of the bands of the 80's, that's why they made and released those recordings. They deserve the accolades, royalties and credit.
That's why the original recordings of Journey outsell anything that Journey did with Arnel. Cover singers rarely sell more than the original hit maker.
I agree. It's also a question of timing. Steve was the one and only as long this music was mainstream. Journey found their style with the vocal range of Steve. Arnel is not member of the foundation setup, and when the band found him, it was clear, what they want.
Arnel has his own music that he has written and is amazing. Checkout "Owe" , "Wrong", "Hiling" and recently "Soldiers he wrote especially for the frontline workers of Covid-19. Arnel is an amazing talent and soul. Grateful he does these performances to keep us all sane and smiling. He's working on his own songs right now also during the quarantine. Arnel keeps the "JOURNEY" going on.!!!
@@tamisutterer3004 You're pouring it on a little thick. I don't hear anything that great. His singing has improved, but the songwriting didn't impress me at all. Sorry, but it's not making it for me.. It's a little sappy and there isn't any really great melodies. It all seems pretty generic and nothing really stood out to me.
Oneness100 and u do u have your song that you write and publish on main stream?.. hahahaha
I don't give a flying fuq whether or not Arnel sounds just like Steve Perry, Arnel is an awesome singer!
It is true Mr.. 🇵🇭
True
Amen 🙏
Amazing boice Arnel Pineda ,God bless all!
Facts!
I have always said Arnel is a vocal chameleon. Amazing how he can morph his voice.
He is, but also maintains his unique style as well. Very talented beyond Journey songs for sure!
Plus he’s just a good human being :)
Arnel is so diverse. The man can literally sing anything by any artist. He has his own identity and sound as a vocalist. If just happens to fit like a glove for Journey.
The reason why I admired Arnel is because of his humility. A real man to stand for himself.
Journey found the perfect frontman Arnel 🙌👍😀
*If This Doesn't Show Everyone Just How Talented Arnel Pineda Is Then I Don't Know What Will....."Just Brilliant"*
Hi trinity trin
Arnel Pineda singing one of my favourite ever songs. Is there nothing he can't sing? Absolutely fantastic
Like you Stacey, I stumbled across Arnel after hearing a Journey song on the radio. After using the Magic Google Machine, I came to discover Arnel and am simply dumbfounded about his talent, humility and grace. I only hope Journey can continue to evolve with him. BTW, I've decided to contribute to Arnel's foundation for street kids in Manila. I encourage others to do so, as well.
Thank you sir! from Philippines
God bless you dear sir!
Agree
Perfect Mood Arnel. ❤️ Love from Italy. I am the guy in the studio, making the orchestration 😅🎵
thanks brother
@@ArnelPinedaOfficial ♥️
Arnel Pineda is a truly pride of the Philippines...
@@carlosabsin991 shut up
And I must say that you did a phenomenal job, Adriano! I was waiting to see and hear how the orchestration in the later part of the song was going to be done. The violin was a nice touch for sure, but the sweeping strings and French horns was done very well! Great job on the production!
Thank you to all who made this possible!
Thank u so much
Arnel and this guy's need to get together again and replay this song all over again
It was Steve Perry who gave the Journey band its distinctive legacy as the voice which catapulted them to fame. When he left the band, it was Arnel who revived them and has remained the voice of the band and its distinctive legacy sound which gives the band its continued popularity till now.
Indeed. But Steve left the building a long time ago. ARNEL earned his place #not_as_a_mimic but as his #original_highOctave self. That’s why some Steve fans are angry with ARNELs gift.
Back in 1983 I was a young Marine in Olongapo city looking for a good bar to hang out in. I remember being drawn to a club by the sound of a band covering Journey’s “Seperate Ways”. They sounded so good that the memory imprinted on my brain and I can hear it like if it were yesterday. I could swear now that it was Arnel but I have no way of truly knowing. In any case Arnel I love you for the magic of your voice and what you bring to the songs that “made” my life. Thank you!
It was indeed AP you heard, Olongapo city along Magsaysay Road was his neck of the wood and where all this things begun. He was much better then, when Journey hired him 11-12 years ago he was already beyond his prime...but still good enough.
You’re right, their group is AMO band(later Boss band) and they’re the house band of California Jam (CalJam)
Yes Leonardo .. you are right!! . Their group is AMO band !! I’ve know them since 1983 We are always watching them everytime they played in California Jam in olongapo city..😊😃😃 What a memories! 🤔😃🤗🤗
I remember those clubs as well, bands that sounded exactly like Journey, Scorpions, etc., you must have been on that same float I was with 31st MAU that got redirected to Beirut. Semper Fi!
@@marieaguilar8304 I bet you also remember the All Star Band ,they are actually the main attraction at Cal Jam during those days
Arnel is amazing! He can sing anything from journey, toto,chicago, survivor. The list goes on . Amazing voice, amazing talent
Not only can he sing anything , he has a unique talent . He adapts to who ever or what song nor band ... I don’t mean he try’s to mimic cause he’s not but each band haves a special sound and he can sing to that spacific sound , that’s not eazy to do and I’m forever grateful of Neil for seeing that as well and bringing him here to the states !
Amazing talent and good looks, the rest of us are doomed! Thanks! PH is taking over have you seen REO Brothers, they also blow me away!
One thing that I love with Arnel is his unique voice. It's soothing and very beautiful. I don't understand why people compare him to others, if you hear Arnel's voice in person you will understand what I mean.
Arnel, I am a Lead Vocalist myself but you my brother are amazing. Keep doing what you're doing. You are an inspiration! God bless you man...................PEACE and stay safe and well!!!!!!
Arnel has his own style of singing shouldn't be compared to anyone and he's superb 👍🏻👌
Man your right! Great point.
If you were to watch Arnel in his cover band in the Philippines pre-Journey, you’d know Arnel has the unique ability to sing and sound like a variety of artists. Without a shadow of doubt, he was an excellent vocalist back then and the only difference now is that he has improved tremendously in his diction.
Yes, and he sounds best there. that was his prime
I agree with you! Arnel is talented and gifted in his own right. There are probably others like him in our country but Arnel is a league of his own. He is naturally gifted. I remember before Journey he had no musical training but he had been performing excellently which was why he caught Neal's attention.
LONG HAIR ARNEL VERSION WITH HIS KILLER VOICE IS A MONSTER.... ! I WATCH IT TOO
As a child, he literally had to sing for his supper. It's no wonder that he can sing just about anything out there. Absolutely love his voice.
ua-cam.com/channels/S7YtahqgWrBmRWPSrYpaKA.html?view_as=subscriber
Arnel Pineda sounds even better than the original singer. And that’s saying a lot. All the musicians spot on! I don’t always feel compelled to comment. But I watch this on repeat. I love Arnel. He’s a true rock star. 🎼💙🍂🍂⚡️🌻🌻🌻
I agree! The original was also superb but Arnel's cover had more soul and more remarkable. Great respect to the original, though.
Go watch rockstar Arnel cover abracadabra 🔥🔥
@@shawnwilson407 Arnel Pineda's cover version of Abracadabra is superb!👍🏼 I recommend his cover version of Aerosmith's Amazing.
@@guenandolini Arnel is a league of his own.
@@guenandolini steve po
素晴らしい。
I remember Arnel’s concert in Cebu and we’re just behind the front row seat where his wife was seated and the most memorable thing for me aside from the great voice is his child was there too...listening to his dad’s voice while in a baby stroller!
Arnel has proved himself, he truly loves what he does. People need to move on💜💜
Yes, Arnel is very blessed. I like to believe that he his humble from the unfortunate of being homeless briefly. He is one of the best things coming from the PhilippinIes. I did not want to like Arnel's singing because of Steve Perry's. Arnel works hard in what he does in music. He truly a God's gifted singer musician. You know, Arnel deserves all the blessings coming to him.
Arnel has a certain charisma that makes fans like me addicted to his voice.
I’m a huge Steve Perry fan so it took me a long time to listen to Arnel. This is absolutely BEAUTIFUL!
And he is incredible in his own right...
SPOT ON! Phenomenal job by Arnel and this entire ensemble!!
I was just in Cleveland on May 7th for the Toto+Journey show and it was awesome. Arnel, you totally made a believer out of me with your performance that night. 👍👍 People need to get off the Steve Perry bandwagon. He was awesome in his day...but he can't even sing most of those songs in their original key anymore, and you really do them justice! Keep up the good work.
@Kevin Widomski Well most people are over that now . I think with this new Album Freedom , Arnel should be considered a made man . His personal stamp is just as legitimate as Steve Perry’s . I will quote what a You Tuber said . “ Steve Perry made Journey . Arnel saved it . “
We love you Arnel!!! Greetings from 🇫🇷 FRANCE
Arnel never tried to be Steve, he was just a guy singing Journey songs, he knocked this Toto song out of the Park❤
Love you're comment..
@@nsnoesuarez your*
Nice one..
Arnel is not a clone
He always loved Journey 's songs and he realized his impossible dream.
Agree with you
It brings old happy memories.and in my heart its...forever.god bless my idol.
Never stop singing, Arnel, never! Hugs from this family to yours, brother!
Can someone tell me who’s that woman. The backup singer
His voice mbakes me so relax, great singer..
James Pural shut up. Not here
@@jamespural4587 Helena Bonham Carter
My fave personal Toto song after Africa, and sang no less by the legendary Arnel Pineda is so haunting. He has never copied Steve Perry; the fact is, he holds his rare talent and has a bigger heart than Perry. Look at his longevity, his heart, and his passion. This guy has our respect, period. Amazing cover with such a talented band.
This guy is really special and his backing group are mountainous
Timeless musical beauty to the soul, Arnel captures his vocal poetry to the heavens, a true star, bar by bar
Mr. Pineda your wonder voice has ment sooo much to so many people keeping all this music alive.. even Mr. Perry himself says he is grateful to you.. Rock on sir please keep rocking on👍👍👍👍
Superb cover Arnel. I’ve been a Toto (and Journey) fan for over 40 years and never thought anyone one can come close to Luke’s vocals, but you killed it.
Arnel Pineda...the greatest rock n roll story of all time!
Comparisons aside, can we just PLEASE appreciate the beautiful gift that Arnel is giving us??
WOW WOW WOW!! I love Toto and this is a great song, Just as good as Toto. But....Arnel is freakin Amazing. Its like Steve Perry when he was younger. When Arnel sings I really get choked up sometimes. He REALLY needs to put out a solo CD!!!
I would like Arnel to make solo album o different covers of famous songs Mark Lanegan made a great solo album called "IMMITATIONS" and they were good. Arnel has to make one.
@@romeoETmike its not possible i think. If he do that ,he will be sued for copyright infrigement.
This is the best cover or remake whatever you call it.. from vocalist back up vocals lead guitarist bass guitar pianist violin drummer .. the best !!!
Grazie per il tuo commento ! ❤️
Thank you so much, your words makes me proud... ( the guitar player)
Arnel Pineda is one of a kind, gifted with such a flexible voice. I can not compare him with other famous lead vocalist because he has his own trademark. Exemplary performance as always. Excellent Arnel. God Bless.
Didn’t care for this song much until Arnel sings it! Lol his voice so good for this song
There’s nothing too “sloppy” about this performance. Fantastic! ♥️
Excellent job Arnel! I've been a Steve Perry fan since the first time I heard him sing Lights. Been a huge fan of yours since the first time I seen you on UA-cam about the time Neil contacted you. You have an amazing voice. Don't let anyone tell you different. When you replaced Steve in Journey I had my doubts but, you stepped in and made those songs yours and you've been kicking ass ever since! Nothing but respect!
He is my fave singer too. I love Arnel Pineda!
He is my fave singer too. I love Arnel Pineda!
Love both SP and AP !!! AP is in SP is out .!!Truly enjoying APs rendition ✌️
これはもう企画の時点で勝利でしょ
と思って再生したら実際は予想よりさらにすごかった。アーネルはいつでも心で歌うひとという印象だけどその印象が強まった。
Arnel, this one of my favorite songs ever. You certainly captured the essence of the vocal. If it had never been heard before people would think this your song. I love both the original and your vocal version equally. Exceptional!
Arnel is absolutely awesome! Sings Journey, sings Chicago, sings Police, Sings Toto better than the original singers clear soaring tone; and yes Perry in his prime could step to Arnel, not the other way around. Arnel is more versatile and has the same power of Perry. Of course tone quality I would give the slight edge to Perry. Arnel = GOAT status: if you look at his story and his body of work; he has a case for GOAT. This band is killer too. Those back up vocalists are smooth as ice...love it. Great band makes a huge dif! Well done...please post more videos like this! Thank you Arnel for being great. The usa loves you man, I appreciate your versality, tonal dominance, and vocal power Arnel! You sound better every track that I hear. Great work bro!
Better than the original singers? Cetera, Sting, Steve Perry and Bobby Kimball made the songs that they performed vocals for incredibly special. I love Arnel but to state that he performs their songs better is a massive overstatement.
I love it that Arnel can sing almost any song. God bless you.
This really was one of Toto's masterpieces. The string/horn arrangements are nerve tingling, Timothy B Schmitt's backing vocals are killer, and Luke's heart crushing solo take your breath away. Vocally, this might have been Luke's best and most challenging, so for Arnel to attempt this shows some balls, and he nailed it. Fantastic job, Arnel!
Dude Timothy B.Schimdt is a member of the Eagles right??😂😂😂
@@wallypagayanan4555 yes and if you know Timothy's work you know he sang backup on this for Toto. Go listen to the original and you'll hear his voice. Then go read the album liner notes and you'll see his name. Dude, you can read liner notes, right? And it's Schmit, not Schmidt.
@@tomdulle1707don't be a d*ck... he just didn't know
I have become a Big fan of Arnel. He's amazing! His vocals are clear and crisp and heartfelt. Also his philanthropy work for the Philippines is inspiring. He should get greater recognition than he's received. I hope Schon and Cain appreciate all he's done. 0:56
Everytime Ijo’s band would play at Shakey’s new frontier, we’d be always take the front seats just to listen to this guy who was just 15 yrs old at that time! Over pizza and fried chicken, we wondered where life would take him because he is so talented! God did not forsake him! So happy for what happened to Arnel! Hope to sit in front again in one of journey’s concerts!
ONE OF MY FAVORITE SONG APART FROM I'LL BE OVER YOU, LEA AND AFRICA.... WATTA LOVELY TUNE :) WELL DONE ARNEL AND TOTO!
Please do the cover of another Toto song, "I'll Be Over You". This is great!
Yes I like too Michael , Soft and touchable music .
That's personally my favorite Toto song
Yes, PLEASE do!!! My 2 favorite Toto songs❤❤❤
Would be great!
Awwww that is my favorite too, two thumbs up for that ❤️
He always put his heart in every song he's singing... Amazingly... I love this one too..
Arnel, when I first heard your story, I knew it was a true miracle and opened my heart and mind to believing that the miracle I had always dreamt of for my own life could happen, as well.
The next several years were extremely arduous for me, but my dream did become a reality. My miracle happened. Two years ago I met my True Love.
Acclimating to such a powerfully intense energy as Divine Love has been overwhelming, a bit intimidating at times, and even down-right scary, but by the grace of God, our bond is growing deeper, stronger and sweeter each day.
This song beautifully illustrates the process that mine and so many other Divine Masculines have undergone. That is, growing into a deeper understanding of the nature of Divine Love; like nature's fury, in all It's facets.
I feel when Toto released this song, it introduced us to a world in which this attaining this level of Love was possible, and the timing in which you are performing it is perfectly in sync with realization of it between my Beloved and me.
All these years of listening to Toto's version, I thought he was saying he wouldn't hold her back from leaving, and now, listening to your version, so eloquently laced with your energy, I realize that he is conveying to her that he won't hold her love at bay because now he is ready for the power, intensity, sweetness, and all else true love entails.
A perfect anthem of where we are as a collective ushering in the New paradigm of Divine Love, and who better to render it than you...a vessel through whom God renders His Miracles, Light and Love through you and your lovely wife.
With my deepest gratitude
~Crystal

Greetings from Germany 👏
There's no substitute for Steve Lukather, but he does a very commendable job. Take a bow, brother!
I grew up in the late sixties and basically through the early 80's. Arnel, I appreciate your talent. It is immense.
II do not think there is anything Arnel cannot sing. Wow so impressed, and this comes from a chick who grew up with all this music! I listened to this and the original verse vs verse and I cannot tell one from the other. Kudos.
This is the most underrated song off of Toto IV. Roseanne and Africa kind of drowned out all the gems on this Grammy-winner but this has always been my favorite.
Goosebumps here. Arnel’s a Chameleon!
Arnel Pineda is truly an inspirational singer, with a God given talent who has touched the lives of millions, as a quality performer in the entertainment industry.
simply amazing, who else has sung for so many great bands? this guy simply rocks!
My all time favourite song....I love Toto and AP , perfect!!
As if arnel doesn't age at all. That voice that fits every song he sings. Will always be a fan of arnel,very humble person. God bless you guys.
Cool man,nice song😎

One of my favorite songs from Toto. Arnel does it justice (as well as the band). Love his beautiful smile at the end.
Dude, you are one of the few guys in this world I can listen to nonstop. The videos of you and your band back in the day before journey were mindnumbing. And I’m a singer myself with a 5 - 6 octave voice. God bless you. You deserve all the success you have and more.
That is what I'm trying to say to people, Arnel is better before Journey comes in.
@@leizlsicad9222 Agree. AP is my forever favorite singer in the world. And AP is God given to the band. And AP saved Journey
I'll I have to say is wow love your singing arnel
Arnel’s voice is one of a kind... I close my eyes and i can literally feel and see the words he’s singing. He has the ability of making people dream... by seducing them with his incomparable lure chant. ❤️
Arnel, this is far from sloppy. I love Toto and all they do. Steve and the guys would be proud of this rendition. I love it. Do more Toto please. I like seeing interpretations of their song.
I love this cover, and agree that Arnel could sing just about any song. He can probably sing the phonebook and have it sound good!
You definitely nailed it. I can't stop watching. You are amazing and your cover is amazing.
I have been overwhelmed by many, many 'covers' of songs on UA-cam, but this version of one of Toto's best songs just trumps the lot. Arnel's interpretation of the lyrics and vocals are sublime and the pianist has the principle scoring perfectly.
thanks a lot from the whole band. :-)
