Steve Perry stopped wanting to hit the notes. Steve Augeri couldn't hit the notes after two years of promoting two albums. Jeff Scott Soto couldn't hit the notes, but the drummer could. Now Arnel can't hit the notes and is back making YouTube videos.
Maybe Soto could sing for the Journey Facebook group. What the hell is that, anyway? Does someone need to tell him: "Jeff, just stop dude. My uncle needs a 2nd mechanic at his shop, you should call him."

JSS reminds me too much of Gary Cherone.

he is a decent honorable man
and maybe thats why he hasnt hit it big he has too mch class to lower himself to tackiness
he could have unloaded the truth about what happened with Journey... no he took the high road
with Queen when ever he does sing Queen stuff it is with respect and reverence... ask anyone who actually has seen him do it....
and unlike clones he never pretends to be anyone else but himself...

The TRUTH about Journey? Now what's that all about?
"I have left Journey because they keep tracking vocals. When I sing Mother Father, I prefer to sing it in a different key than the band is playing and THEY all sound wrong."
(OR)
"I have left Journey because they keep looking at me funny. I like to write my own lyrics on the fly, and this 'Just a city boy born and raised in South Detroit' line is just silly. It sounds much better when I talk about the Smalltown Girl... twice."
(OR)
"I have left Journey because Neal Schon is an asshole. He and that keyboard player want to write all the songs. This group wrote much better songs when the old lead singer was included in the writing process. I am a lead singer and could help Neal and Jon write much better material, much better than that Open Arms flop. Who's gonna listen to that crap? I have over 100 songs on my facebook page that are just waiting to be smash hits."

So are those three reasons the truth about why he left Journey, or speculation?

I'd lean towards #3, but anything is possible...

Didn't He sing for invy malmsteen's marching out?....That was an awsome album with great vocals.....I remember at the time the media was calling him the next Bruc Dickinson/Rob Halford type of singer. After that he faded out.
