Musically, the band sounds great and Pineda sounds good. The problem (for me) is that the songs just have a bland "going through the motions" sound to them. "Where did I lose your love" is the only song I find myself going back to. Steve Perry's songwriting is missed more than his voice. I will have to say this album is a major improvement over "Generations".

Revelation album is what Journey is supposed to sound!

Arnel was hired in December 2007. Recorded 11 brand new tracks and re-recorded 11 classics. His Journey debut in Feb/08 live concert (15,000 people) in Vina Del Mar in Chile televised to over 25 million people where the "Monster" crowd rewarded them with not one (Silver Torch), not two (Golden Torch), but three awards (and the Silver Seagull)! The Silver Seagull is the best they can award.

If you haven't watched this concert, I suggest that you check the videos posted in the link below.

SUPERB for CD1 AND 2, DVD is awsome, i feel like in my teens again, hope to see more CD's and concerts.
I am from Taiwan living now here in the U.S. and I can't believe people in Taiwan knew this guy too.
He is really good and people from the Philippines loves music and very nice and warm people. I think that what makes Arnel good singer.

Why my rating is 100? Because the more argument you people make, the more they become famous, and more people are going out to buy their cd's and go to their concerts because of the huge comparisons of him to Steve Perry that you are making. These arguments and comparisons drives them to the heights of never ending popularity.. I always liked Perry and Augeri but this guy Arnel's ability is a double steve combined. He can sing anything..lol..I will always be a journey fan regardless of who their frontman is.

And if you don't like Arnel..DON'T BUY AND LISTEN TO THEIR RECORDS BECAUSE IT IS A WASTE OF MONEY AND TIME AND ENERGY...HA HA HA..

I am enjoying their new release. It is a good change for a better journey music.

And lastly..STEVE PERRY WAS THEN AND ARNEL PINEDA IS NOW.....AND NOBODY CAN CHANGE THAT EVEN A HARDCORE PERRY FANATIC....AMEN..Good luck to all the arguments out there..I am resting my case..and just enjoy the music..CHEERS...

What a mixed bag on the reviews. Andrew is right, evaluate it on the music. Don't spend time lamenting that Perry or Augeri or Soto is no longer there. Listen to the music.
For me, this is not a "great" cd, but it's not bad either. First off, I didn't buy this for the re-recorded classics, I was interested in the new material.
NEVER WALK AWAY- Mix "Be Good To Yourself" with "Never Too Late" and you have Never Walk Away. Nothing original about this song, but it is the classic Journey sound, and would be a Top 20 hit in the 80's.
LIKE A SUNSHOWER- Agree with Andrew on this, wrong choice to throw in at #2. Not a strong point of the cd.
CHANGE FOR THE BETTER- A "grower". Didn't knock me out at first, but warmed up to it gradually. Kind of a "middle of the pack" type of song from a listenability standpoint.
WILDEST DREAM- A song that many seem to like, but it doesn't do much for me. Just lacks the hook that I like from Journey.
FAITH IN THE HEARTLAND- Why? Because "Generations" wasn't slickly produced? So what... this version pales by comparison to the original. It's a great song, so it's not a disaster, just unnecessary.
AFTER ALL THESE YEARS- Ballad ripped straight from the Journey playbook. Another top 20 hit had it been back in the day. Sappy? Yes, but I still love it.
WHERE DID I LOSE YOUR LOVE- Top 40 hit in the day... would've been a minor hit. Great hooks and pacing.
WHAT I NEEDED- Reminds me a bit of the feel of "Mother Father". Another not great but not bad song... listenable, but not something I'll skip to hear again.
WHAT IT TAKES TO WIN- I don't care if it belongs on a Rocky soundtrack... lyrically, this is what I always loved about Journey... looking at the bright side of life and potential. Could've been a minor top 40 hit.
TURN DOWN THE WORLD TONIGHT- Interesting ballad, but hardly the best of the post-Perry era... not even the best on this cd. Might have made an interesting choice as a 5th single release back in their heyday(like "Why Can't This Night Go On Forever" was for "ROR")
THE JOURNEY(REVELATION)- Sorry, but totally out of place on this Journey CD... perfect for Neal's next solo outing, perhaps. For a Journey cd, this is the weakest track on the cd.

As for the "covers" cd, I found it overall to be a HUGE mistake. Let Perry be recognized as "the voice". There's no need to try and show us how well the new guy can cover the songs. It's generally pointless. With that said, I was pleasantly surprised by "Only The Young" and "Wheel In The Sky", I really felt Arnel's voice was well suited to those two songs. Everything else he sounds like a cheap imitation.

So overall, this cd falls well short of the classics "Escape" and "Arrival". The production is better than "Generations", and it benefits from not having Neal, Ross, and Jon performing any lead vocals. These facts alone help it top "Generations" in my mind, although I think the songs in "Generations" were overall slightly better. Still, there are two outstanding tracks and three or four more that I will definitely add to my permanent Journey playlist. So, a good to very good cd overall, but not the perfect classic some are making it out to be, nor the weak dire crap that others are cursing it as being.

I like the old songs Open Arms and Faithfully.But I dont care who sing that songs.But when my friend told me about Arnel in youtube,I started to compare this two guys.There both amazing.Arnel can sing anything,not only Perry.Thats what makes me admired him.The good thing for him,if the audience request a song and the singer,he can sing it.Thats make Arnel discover by Neal Schonn.The Amazing voice he have.For me,I am now an avid-fan of Arnel/Journey,I cant wait to see them in concert.Mabuhay!

Just picked this up at Walmart,talk about great value.I can say this is up there with Arrival for me and that is high praise.Arnel is a great find and has a brilliant future and I look forward to hearing more from Journey with him.This cd has not left my cd player and I think it will be staying there for quite a whileIhope they will tour Canada so I can get a chance to see them live.

All though i think it was wrong ,journey should of never announced jss as their new lead singer then dump him after the tour was over? On the other hand he is not what journey was all about.On stage he was annoying ,bobbing and weaving his head and tossing the mike up in the air like a berton like he was at some hard rock show. Did not see any compassion or sincerity in his voice and not to mention i thought i was looking at the caveman in the geico commmercials.If they had stayed with him i would have never seen another journey show? I am not sure which he was either ,a steve perry wanna be or a kari yuckee singer???well u jss fans got one thing right he would of brought them in a new direction alright,down down down!!!I liked Steve A and thought he did an amazing job with the vocals but to me the two cds made with him were average(own both)and get played now and then.As for Arnel his voice is astonishing and does justice for journey and the new cd. Though he does sound like steve p(no one will ever compare, so why do we all keep trying)he has his own unique style and compassion for the music he sings.To me this is the best music journey has put out since the breackup of the band.I can play every song without skipping through ,in fact , i have not pulled this cd out since i bought it.The audio was a nice touch and have to say that
Deans vocals in "mother father " are great !! As for the rerecords ,some of the songs are good some are ok.I mean how many rerecords or greatest hits cds can ya make no matter who the singer is? Bottom line is that it is great to see journey come back to their roots with this music and hopefully we can expect more of the same in the future.Keep on rocking journey.....43000 copies in 3 days!!!! That is probably more the arrival or generation and red 13 sold combined?

The sad decline of such a mighty band !!!!
An inferior Re-make of Faith In The Heart land & the totally
awful Wildest Dream only confirms there is very little creativity
left in this band..(Generations was just a mess)...At least Arrival was an awesome album !!!!
If you would like to hear a cover band of journey then I suggest
this one is for you !!!!!!!!!!!! :-(

WoW!! amazing, amazing, amazing, there is nothing to argue, Andrew is rightfully correct.
