    I go for arnel bec i'm a filipino but that is not the point! The discovery of pineda only shows the universality of music, so profound, so touching!. This is a breakthrough in music industry as nobody is indispensable! Keep on rocking arnel!

    Answered Arnel Pineda

    by far..... I'm not a Filipino, but a singer :) ..... that guy -Arnel- can do ANYTHING with his voice! (can Perry sing GnR, BON JOVI, or Roxane by POLICE??? Highly doubt it.....Look on YouTube's ZOO covers, and you'll see a wide variety of songs sung perfectly by Arnel..)
    Agree with Katzparov: listen to "Faithfully" and compare them....you will see....Arnel has a much wider range of voice and deeper sounding vibration/resonance in his singing...... Powerful....Steve Perry is a great (!) singer, but his voice fades out in many-many Journey songs.
    Guys/gals, stop being so old fashioned, there is nothing wrong to recognize/respect somebodies natural talent, even if he isn't the original singer of a band....... ("there is always somebody better out there"....... the only question is, who's getting in the spotlight)

    I'm Proud to be a Filipino and Of Course!!!! Absolutely, Arnel is the best lead singer of Journey... He can hit very high notes and his voice is very poweful and Just sounds amazing... Not Like Perry.,,, Who has an attitude problem who feels like he's the most important band member of Journey, that's why he leave the band. Let's just thank Schon for doing a great job, for finding Arnel as their new lead singer and Journey will rock again just like old time.. Right?

    perry but just barely. saw them in concert just last month in atlanta. never thought anyone could come close to perry, but the new guy came as close to perry as you could possibly come. what a great surprise it was for him to be that close in his singing ability.

    Answered Arnel Pineda

    Arnel Pineda is better than the great Steve Perry. Just listen to what Pineda does to the song "Faithfully" He takes a truly great song, sung wonderfully by Steve Perry and makes it into and absolute work of art.........POWERFULLY sung throughout the ENTIRE song whereas Steve Perry had PARTS of the Song wonderfully done and other parts that can be forgotten.
    Arnel PIneda is absolutely incredible !!!

    Arnel does a great Steve Perry imitation. Steve Perry does not imitate Arnel Pineda. Arnel has a great voice, but Steve Perry is the strandard.

    it was Atari's "Journey Escape"....there was a contest here in Austin last year for Journey fans to come out and play. It was part of a Journey sing-a-long held at an obscure movie theater. We "followed the bouncing ball" to Journey videos and concert footage. It was so fun.
