[quote="kgdjpubs"][quote="stevew2"]He fucking nailed it. Different ending. So what, he wasnt trying to sound like Perry.Band was good to. He could sing for Journey,but why would he?[/quote]
I've always thought Marc Anthony would have been a great choice if Journey wanted to do something like "Queen + Paul Rogers" by bringing in a name singer. As you mentioned however, why would he want to do it?!? He's bigger by himself than Journey is these days...
For what it's worth though, the musical style may be generally far removed from Journey, but Marc Anthony is one of the best pure singers that I have heard in the last decade. There was a concert on HBO (and later dvd) from Madison Square Garden around the release of his first English-language album, and he pulled a Sam Cooke and radically improvised all over the vocal melody and extended the songs a bit working the crowd and pulled it off with flying colors.
Here's "You Sang To Me" from that show, one of the more pop-rock numbers, showing only a vague similarity to the studio cut that was all over the radio at the time.
