Arnel Pineda

Yipee, my second post and already I have something I want to post that just amazes me, that being Journey's incredible new singer Arnel Pineda.
Arnel hails from the Philippines and was discovered by Journey's guitarist while searching Youtube for a new singer.
Now, I'm not a huge Journey fan, they have a few songs I like, but when I heard Arnel sing, it sent shivers up my spine. What can I say, I have a weakness for a crooning tenor and Arnel delivers on all fronts.
Look him up on Youtube playing with his cover band: "The Zoo", some truly note worthy vocal stylings from Pineda doing everyone from Robert Plant, Sting, Freddie Mercury and even Geddy Lee.
Talent is the only word which springs to mind when ya hear this guy sing.
