Phred Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 That was really fun. His voice still seems in really good shape. I'm just saying', everyone that confuses correlation with causation eventually ends up dead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken Beaumont Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 The new singer is from the Philippines and was discovered on YouTube. Since Steve Perry they have been fronted by Steve Augeri, Jeff Scott Soto and now Arnel Pineda. All basically Steve Perry sound alikes.

iLaw Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 His voice still seems in really good shape. You are kidding I assume... that wasn't Steve Perry. Not to mention the fact that it doesn't look (and sound) like Arnel is really singing in that clip. :laugh: Larry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimboK Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 I kinda like the new guy. Steve Perry was a 1 in a million singer, Arnel is a a in 750,000 voice. The other replacements were never that good. As a huge Rainbow lineage fan, I do have to admit I like some J.S. Soto though....

Moonglow Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 The new singer is from the Philippines and was discovered on YouTube. Since Steve Perry they have been fronted by Steve Augeri, Jeff Scott Soto and now Arnel Pineda. All basically Steve Perry sound alikes. I never cared for Soto, nor would I characterize him as sounding like Steve Perry. Pineda's story is quite remarkable on a number of levels. IIRC, for a period of time he was singing for money on the streets of the Philippines, at times going without food. Then to be discovered by Neal Schon on YouTube. Cool story. My favorite post-Steve Perry singer was Steve Augeri. Had the opportunity to meet him at Wrigley field in Chicago, of all places. Seemed like a super nice guy.

Tonysounds Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 As a huge Rainbow lineage fan, I do have to admit I like some J.S. Soto though.... What does Soto have to do with Rainbow? The closest he ever came to Ritchie Blackmore was singing with Yngwie. He's closer to Kevin Bacon than Rainbow. Hitting "Play" does NOT constitute live performance. -Me.

Devnor Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 As a huge Rainbow lineage fan, I do have to admit I like some J.S. Soto though.... Absolutely. Soto has his own thing going on...even in Journey which is what I love about the guy but he doesn't have that God-like Steve Perry range. I don't think Blackmore would have ever worked with Soto just because that would be a nod to Malmsteen. Hah it would be great and probably the best thing for Rainbow post JLT besides Ronnie returning. RIP I saw Soto/Malmsteen twice in '85-86 they delivered.

Phred Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 Holy Cow. I was not kidding, I thought he sounded good, and was aware that it is not Steve Perry (). I was making a comment that the Journey singers tend to get burned out fairly quickly, and this guy still sounded pretty good after 2 years (maybe I am wrong and it isn't 2 years. Maybe only 1, maybe 3). I believe he is singing in this clip, not sure what makes you think otherwise. Other than holding the notes a little long for my liking, I thought he did well. I am sorry I got it wrong. I'm just saying', everyone that confuses correlation with causation eventually ends up dead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldwin Funster Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 No coat tails or sideburns? I can't accept a Journey singer that is missing coat tails and sidburns. And whats up with Neils hat? Where is the white boy fro? FunMachine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrimsonianKing Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 How i hate that song...I played it so many times in cover bands that i can't stand it anymore It's got to a point where i'd ask any new band "You guys don't play Don't stop believing, do ya?"

16251 Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 Journey Mark II. How many original members do you need to keep using the name? When I played clubs/weddings, I hated that song until we started playing it. Then, I loved it. Classic anthem song and piano part.
