Don't Stop Believing... New Journey Frontman Is ASIAN
When I first received this, I thought this was a hoax. But after perusing trusty Wikipedia, I found this dude at the bottom as the new frontman for seminal butt rock band Journey. After picking up my jaw from the floor, I watched the clip some more... this guy is actually really good! And, he's not too hard to look at either ;) His name is Arnel Pineda, and has been in various cover bands for over 25 years and finally got picked up by Journey after viewing his videos on YouTube.
Also, I'm glad this reinforces the stereotype that Flipinos are the best singers of the Asian race. My friend Ryan, who is Filipino, is our resident singer in our Rock Band. He can bust out a mean Whitney Houston like non other.
[Thanks, Shaun!]






Dude that guy is 40 years old. You asian guys are so lucky.
Well, I'm Filipino...and quite surprised. And as for Davidoff's comment...we might look young now, but when we get old, we look OLD! It's all of a sudden. I swear.
It's true about the age thing. I call it the age bomb. you hit a certain age and everything goes kablooey.
Age bomb?! LOL, I'm stealing that.
Caught these covers by Arnel and the Zoo and It really amazes me. I agree with some of the posters on youtube that he even beats the original singers to a certain extent. Enjoy guys.
