And wait for it........................... How many freakin clips are we going to see with Arnel singing with someone else to what sounds like "elevator music" versions of Journey songs??? Fuck! I love what Arnel's bringing to the band and I'm sure he appreciates your support, but do we have to see a new clip every damn day of the guy singing the same damn songs? I think I've personally heard enough Journaoke for awhile. I don't know about the rest of you, but this has just been driving me crazy! Am I alone here?

Why the fuck should anyone care what the people in The Phillipines do or don't do?

Sorry Jim, I enjoyed it. Have a beer dude.

AP singing with this lady was a better match than the previous one. She digs his ass, that's for sure.

I've gotten to where I don't even want to click on any threads with his name in fear of more lame karaoke videos! I really do love his voice and think he's great for Journey. I guess I'm just retarded for feeling this way. I should be happy for him, but I just don't get all the karaoke...

I'm with ya Jim. Not only awful, but down right embarrassing. You wanna do this shit day in and day out...join a tribute band. This is EXACTLY what NS said they didn't want when they chose him over Jeremy. And don't any of you fucks think for a second I'm comparing Jeremy to this crap.

Rmember this stuff is mostly for his filipino fans. I just skip the threads now for the most part. If it floats their boat good on them then. Now if he starts doing this stuff in the states without the band, then we can officialy declare "HAMMERTIME" on his ass.

Hopefully, many more.

I kinda like it. Great exposure for Arnel.

Well, at least if I'm just crazy....I'm not crazy alone! Welcome aboard my crazy train.

We need a shoutbox on this site, I think it would be interesting to see what people type when they don't have time to edit.
Could be a lot of fun, especially on a Friday or Saturday night.

Go ahead and slap yourself Dan...that's me snapping you to your senses! I understand him doing it a couple of times for charity gigs, and that's cool. I just feel that this is progressively getting worse, and what's next....An Arnel variety show where guests come on and do bad karaoke? I personally just wish he'd rest up, work on new material with Journey, and get his ass back on the road with a real BAND until they decided to throw in the towel. JMHO!

I'm glad you like all of these clips though.

I personally don't have a problem with it. Weren't people complaining earlier that he wasn't doing Journey songs on these appearances?

lol......I'm really not trying to be!!!
I totally understand where you are coming from, but we've been told that's
the way they do things over there and if Journey doesn't care, who am I?!?!?!?

Dude, it's Open Arms. I'll take Mariah's version over this.

While I really don't care for it, I'd never say something like that!

LOL...Just sharing.

The affair was essentially a high-profile birthday celebration. The gal's foremost an actress, not a singer...she joined Arnel for that song in the capacity of celebrant more than anything else .

Points taken nevertheless .

[Jana]

Okay. Here's my take. The problem is there's been every video (great, good, average, and bad) of Arnel performing in the Philippines since the tour ended posted here. MR is a Journey board, a board that is a fan of Journey music, and sometimes -- well, okay, many times critical of the revolving players in the band and their personalities - yes, even criticial of Steve Perry. No one is immune. But first and foremost it's a board about the music and the originality, not an Arnel Pineda fansite. Posting all these covers and duets in the Philippines ad nauseum only invites criticism by many, and his fans cannot be upset by that, because, truthfully. some weren't that good, or many on here don't care about the tenth Open Arms duet or solo with canned music video from over there. Okay. I'm exaggerating.

On Arnel's site any news and clips are welcomed, as it should be. But here I think posting some clips of Arnel, such as the old Foolish Heart cover, which wasn't very good, isn't going to get the response the poster wants here for the most part, and shouldn't get their feelings hurt, or it would be better left on Arnel's site. The problem with posting anything and everything of Arnel doing covers and Journey songs as duets in the Phils, is when something really great is posted, even if a Journey song or even a cover, many on here are sick of the overkill.

I'm an Arnel fan. I happen to like this clip and I like Sharon and thought it was very well done. Of course, there were other videos posted here of duets with Arnel that were average. So what was the point of posting those here? There's another new video on Arnel's site with Arnel doing a duet with a Filipina singer who is playing guitar, but I doubt most of you will care, but I loved it. I go to Arnel's site for all that stuff, and have gotten used to the covers and Journey songs without Journey. It's the uniqueness of who they hired.

So no, Jim, you're not crazy, nor are the avid Arnel fans who love everything he does. I say there needs to be some moderation, which is where I am, right smack in the middle. Peace.

You know what...just because they irritate me, obviously others here love the videos (ahem..DAN) so you should keep posting them. I know you enjoy them, and that's cool...everyone likes something different! I guess the culture's just a lot different over there. I am happy for the dude, and he does a lot of great things for the charities over there. Post away, and I'll just try not to watch!
