Sorry dudes, but I'm a native speaker and I don't hear any accent. He talks a bit on this survivor clip and even says something naughty like Deano, and I don't hear anything. I think he may speak English better than Augeri, who kind of jumbled his words now and then.

I agree that the accent thing is massively exaggerated, it's not that bad.
But I think your taking things a bit too far on the Augeri thing.

He has an accent but it's not as big of a deal as it is being made out to be. Journey on!

I can hear an accent, I can also hear the numerous F-ups of the lyrics and a voice about to crack.
Like i've said before, if they really can't find a better frontman than this guy, please retire and leave at least a little bit of dignity with the Journey name.

I think this guy will prove all you naysayers wrong. I think this dude is great.

Say what you like, apart from the missed cue that is an awesome performance of a very hard tune.
I'd still rather have Jeff fronting the band, but this guy sounds great IMHO.

all the loose ends will be tied together before he takes the stage with Journey and he will be great, wait and see.

I can hear it very slightly and not often enough to be a problem when he sings...with practice, he will shake it..Great tone and phrasing when he sings.
I think he will be a great fit for the band.

Throw a little time and money at a few of his little issues and everything will be fine.....

He sounds great singing Journey (faint accent, but ehh). A terrific singer.
As a SPEAKER, he's a hell of a vocalist.

I think your right, they'll probably do fine. But the Journey 'spark' is gone for me.

Maybe it has been discussed before as I don't check out this site too often but was Kevin Chalifant ever considered as their singer?
Based on demos I've heard on this site & his previous work he seems like a natural..

Ditto. I have excellent hearing, and don't see/hear what some are claiming.
One good thing though. The Loons are off their Perryshit arguments........ for awhile, anyway.

LOL Yak, for somebody that changes his Harlequin Romance novel-cover sigs as much as you, I'm thinking you're the one that needs the sandalwood soap, dude.

You know good and well there's an accent. Why would you say that?

Yep, there's an accent there. I'll stick with Evolution or Frontiers as they now sound more like Journey than Journey does/will. Dude, how can you be pulling for this guy after all of the shit you dished when Jeremey was in the running?
And the comment about Augeri is bollocks. Augeri did a great job in Journey and took the fuckin pipe. Every one of those assholes knew what was going on when Steve was struggling. I'd take Steve A. over Arnel for sure. That comment ain't right dude ....

You talking to me?? I was agreeing with Escape Artist. As in "Ditto....I also hear an accent......etc."

No need for soap, as I am not a Loon. (Are you one of the original soap crew?) I'm living the dream. In real time. Just an expression of how I feel about my lady.
Do you need the pics toned down for some reason, or tell the truth, do you really like seeing them?

No, but I've heard about it, thanks to JoePa.

And good on ya about your lady.

LOL must say, you seem a little obsessed with loons and soap though.

The pics don't bother me, some are kinda hot.

I'll take those over the bouncing boobs.
