I know, they should just quit! It just sucks having a singer who actually wants to sing. Hey, this could be like the Van Halen forum, wouldn't that be great! :roll:

Frankly, I could care less what people say, the guys got a great voice. He's from the Philippines, what do you expect people. Who I feel sorry for is Arnel having to read that crap.

All of these guys COULD have got the job, they didn't. I'd bet my left nut that if they had people would be bitcin' about them and saying wow listen to this Arnel guy! I personally think they got it right, and we will hear a big difference in the diction issues very soon.

It's great that Journey has a new singer and they are making a lot of fans happy. I still love to hear Neal play. But Arnel's diction issues are a major distraction for me. That doesn't make me or others who feel that way a loon or a bigot.

I've always said Arnel should have been with speech coaches continuing on from the first year, not stopping. Jon and Neal dropped the ball on that. But the Separate Ways video I posted was from the end of last year's tour, when I saw him, and he was fantastic. I heard no noticeable diction problems. Here he is on Ask the Lonely, same concert, September 2009. He rocked.

He seems to backslide when he goes home at the end of the season. I agree though, it just isn't that big a deal for me in a live setting. Unfortunately, most of the YT vids that get posted are absolute crap, as far as sound quality.

I saw them on one of the last tour dates also, I was amazed at this guys power and range, watching youtube does not do him justice.

Do some of you feel that the comments posted by Pineda fans on a lot of the Perry YouTubes about him being gay, big nosed, pussy, not a man, singing like a fag, etc are retaliation towards the perception that Americans that don't care for (or are biased or racist) about some of Arnel's Pinoy mannerisms? I've always wondered if it was like a chicken or the egg type thing, cause we all know that there was a bit made about the racism of American fans when they discovered that Arnel was the new singer of the group.

Its not that fact that you don't like it, which is not actually what you said, its the making fun. My comment was really directed at Jim, but you decided to pile on. Where I come from its not cool to make fun of the way people talk, especially when there's a chance they might read it.

I'm with ya on that, could care less. People are going to like what they like or not. As for feeling sorry for Arnel, you've probably felt bad for them all at some point. Perry, Soto and Augeri have all been just as scrutinized as Arnel, I think it comes with being THE Journey frontman. And as for being from the Philippines, Charise sings with barely a hint of accent, not sure why some do and some don't, maybe more time on learning the language, I don't know. LOL on a side note, I don't know what it is with her, but I have yet to see or hear a clip from that girl without my eyes welling up..........just something absolutely stunningly beautiful about her vocals.......especially around the 4:30/5:00 mark.....just wow! :shock: What a gift that girl's got!

Perry pummeler? When do I make fun of Perry? Do I disagree with the way he left? Yes, and the way he strings his fans along? Yes, guilty, however, the only comments that would be construed as making fun are the occasional Beak reference, which for me is more a term of endearment.

Perry pummeler, that is a good one though! :wink:

To say that AP is the only one who gets "crapped" on here is crazy.

Dan alone has dragged Perry for MILES!!!! So if we are going to refrain from the crapping...then WE ALL would
need to play nice....I for one don't ever see it happening....Just Sayin! :wink:

No different than Nostrildamus saying "citay" for "city" or "toe" instead of "two" (during Separate Ways) on the FTLOSM tour. Hell, I could go on and on and on. If you like the singer you don't notice, but if you don't like the singer you do. Personally, neither really bothers me because I like them both.

BS, like the Charise clip I posted above, I don't dislike either one, but Arnel I notice it, Charise I don't.....just a fact.

I'm with ya on that, could care less. People are going to like what they like or not. As for feeling sorry for Arnel, you've probably felt bad for them all at some point. Perry, Soto and Augeri have all been just as scrutinized as Arnel, I think it comes with being a THE Journey frontman. And as for being from the Philippines, Charise sings with barely a hint of accent, not sure why some do and some don't, maybe more time on learning the language, I don't know. LOL on a side note, I don't know what it is with her, but I have yet to see or hear a clip from that girl without my eyes welling up..........just something absolutely stunning beautiful about her vocals.......especially around the 4:30/5:00 mark.....just wow! :shock: What a gift that girl's got! Bawling like a baby here...... :cry: :lol: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=opdd-_Z2 ... re=related



To say that AP is the only one who gets "crapped" on here is crazy.

Dan alone has dragged Perry for MILES!!!! So if we are going to refrain from the crapping...then WE ALL would
need to play nice....I for one don't ever see it happening....Just Sayin! :wink:


Who said that? I know everyone gets crapped on.

I've always wondered if it was like a chicken or the egg type thing, cause we all know that there was a bit made about the racism of American fans when they discovered that Arnel was the new singer of the group.


I don't think much of anything about it. They're the same troll losers you see on all the videos. Perry's trolls are disgusting going on Arnel's videos or JSS's etc, and Arnel's trolls going on Perry's etc. They're the same names over and over. Losers sitting behind a screen all night saying disgusting things about the other and loving the fight. These aren't the regular fans debating. They're YouTube trolls.

I agree, major earsore here ... :shock:
I'll bet it was a different story actually being there, though!! :wink:


I know, they should just quit! It just sucks having a singer who actually wants to sing. Hey, this could be like the Van Halen forum, wouldn't that be great! :roll:


Most of the people who complain are just BUTT HURT loons, who are unhappy that Perry is not in the band and / or that there is a Filipino fronting an American band. Not playing any card here, but all one has to do is read some of the comments in YouTube to see there is much bigotry out there. I will also venture to say there is some of it here on these forums and normally the most outspoken ones and the most defensive ones are the guiltiest of it......just saying. It's the fucking truth. Good thing it's not a Negro or a pollock fronting the band. Flame away! :wink: :lol: :lol: :lol:


Frankly, I could care less what people say, the guys got a great voice. He's from the Philippines, what do you expect people. Who I feel sorry for is Arnel having to read that crap.


I've always said Arnel should have been with speech coaches continuing on from the first year, not stopping. Jon and Neal dropped the ball on that. But the Separate Ways video I posted was from the end of last year's tour, when I saw him, and he was fantastic. I heard no noticeable diction problems. Here he is on Ask the Lonely, same concert, September 2009. He rocked.

Ask The Lonely = http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8DDtcm16 ... re=related


He seems to backslide when he goes home at the end of the season. I agree though, it just isn't that big a deal for me in a live setting. Unfortunately, most of the YT vids that get posted are absolute crap, as far as sound quality.


I saw them on one of the last tour dates also, I was amazed at this guys power and range, watching youtube does not do him justice.


Isn't that the truth.

I don't like it, 78 ...I hope your eyes roll right outta yo head!! How's
that for some crazy~ass diction?!?!

Deb~ I agree w/you, per usual!! Now, as I was saying, I'll bet if I were actually at the show, I would've enjoyed it!!
Stay off my ass, pinheads ...grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!! :evil:


Its not that fact that you don't like it, which is not actually what you said, its the making fun. My comment was really directed at Jim, but you decided to pile on. Where I come from its not cool to make fun of the way people talk, especially when there's a chance they might read it.


Dude, if you think I was mocking him, or making fun of him... You're wrong. I was trying to type what I'm hearing when he sings my favorite songs. Is it his fault? No! He is an amazing singer with some serious qualities to his voice! He has a hell of a range in his vocals too (which I HIGHLY respect!).

I just don't believe that an iconic "American" band should have got a vocalist with a foreign accent. I don't give a shit WHERE he's from, but if his vocals don't sound "American"... it distracts the shit out of me. He could be from France for all I give a shit! It's not just that though...

I've commented on his jumping around like a monkey before too. There, I WAS making fun of him! He needs to take some time to watch videos of some great frontmen, and find his own gig up there. Jumping around like a monkey looks ridiculous and pulls me out of the whole experience! Everyone I know that saw the Superbowl video said the same comment without me even mentioning it. They also commented on his eyes. They said they looked like this... :shock:

He looked very odd and out of place. Also, the bands performance and the sound quality sucked ASS for that show.

Anyway, sorry if my opinion offended you. :wink:

Diction sounds great here and loved his stage presence too. I guess you didn't realize he HAS calmed down on stage, but still has great energy. Oh, you wouldn't know. I would because I've been to concerts.

I saw a huge change in him by Hawaii through October last year compared to 2008 and beginning of 2009 tour.
