I think Resonate is the catchiest and sexiest song they've done in ages. I don't see how people can't hear hooks in that song.

Man, cool. While you and Fab are at it, could you clean up the other 4 too? (joking)

Really surprising there isn't a good soundboard recording laying around somewhere.

Actually, Im going to call this right now. The fans that won't like this will be Filipinos who jumped on board because of Faithfully and Open Arms being redone by Arnel, a different group than the plokkers. Once they see that these are songs that other local singers won't cover (like After All These Years) they are going to be done with AP. He'll have his plokkers but the fans of the ballads (most Filipinos) who sort of jumped on the bandwagon late will be the first to jump off.

This cannot be all bad. Seems that many of them hang on too tight to the old ballads and don't want to see the band move on and for Arnel to fade into his own and out of the Perry shadow. Well, fuck em then.

Five minutes after the new songs were uploaded people were screaming for the classics and couldn't wait for Faithfully to get uploaded.

Steveo, we are going to be two of the smart people who got inside the Journey ark while the floods came to sweep away all the naysayers and bitchers, still shooting off their mouths while half filled with sea water. Even after their heads disappear under the raging waves, you'll see a few last bubbles of air rise to the surface, each one containing one last dying complaint which will quickly be swept away in the torrential gale.

They like counterfeit things in Asia. AP on the new songs is genuine.

Yes, Steve - Fabb is going to be doing some of the others, too. Not sure about all, but at least a few, and I think Edge is next. Hey, it's all we have to go on for a while, so might as well make them the best as possible.

And also yes, people are retarded... all these songs have hooks galore.

Great. The Edge of the Moment is next. That's a good one to do, because Fabbest's sound was definitely better on that one. I don't know about all of them, but that one for sure.

Do you know if Journey is going to release an early single, like a month earlier before the album drops?

Was it stepped down on that clip I put on the Hits thread? It was a Reno clip.

Deen I love on so many songs. But only Perry and Arnel for me on Faithfully. Stepped down live it doesn't bother me so much because I love the emotion of the song in the moment by Arnel and the richness of his vocals and power. Deen is a little too muted for me. Though, I wish they would add back Still They Ride with Deen. He's wonderful on that song.

It will be stepped down this tour. You hear emotion, I hear a song dragging through sludge. In 2008 AP was great on it but I think old father time is waiting for him this tour, especially seeing that there are three day sets already scheduled in Europe.

To which stations? A/C? Mainstream rock?
