Don't Stop Believin': Everyman's Journey [Priced-down Reissue]

[Machine Translation] [King Records Rock Movie Classics Vol. 2] From Damned to Journey! Long-awaited reissue of music documentaries at an affordable price! 15 carefully selected films that rock lovers can't afford to miss! Since their debut in 1975, the band has had a string of mega-hits, including "Don't Stop Believin'", which was covered in the popular American TV series "Glee" and became the most downloaded song in the world in 2011, and the immortal ballad "Open Arms". Journey was one of the most successful rock bands in the U.S., and at the height of its popularity, the band had eight platinum discs. In 2007, however, the band, which had been in existence for more than 30 years, found itself at a crossroads: charismatic vocalist Steve Perry, who had led the band through its golden era in the 1970s, left the band in 1998. Two new vocalists joined the band as new members, but they left one after another. In December 2007, guitarist Neal Schon, who was looking for a new lead singer, stumbled upon a YouTube video of an unknown Filipino singer, Arnel Pineda, singing a Journey song. Shocked by the high tone of his voice, which reminded him a lot of Steve Perry, and his amazing vocal ability, Neal immediately contacted Arnel. At first, Arnell dismissed the call as a malicious prank, but when he realized that it was really Neil himself, he immediately went to the U.S., auditioned, and was officially accepted as Journey's new vocalist. His success story, unique in the Internet age, was widely reported in the U.S. and around the world. This documentary follows the true story of Journey and Filipino Arnel Pineda, a fairy tale of the rock world. The death of his beloved mother, who taught him to sing, the separation of his family, and two years on the road... But he risked everything in his life to sing, overcame immeasurable hardships, and captured the American dream. This is the story of Arnell's indomitable spirit and his extraordinary talent, which never gave up on his dream. Many hit numbers played in the movie!
