Thanks. That was a pretty mediocre video. Nothing special, but nothing terrible. I did notice the synch was bad in a few spots, though.

I think that was probably just the youtube upload.

I like the song. Don't need to see Neal rolling around with the reality whore, and A.P. needs to eat. He looked way too thin.

My girlfriend's text was priceless: "Neal is such a whore."

Then the follow up text when she finished the video, "He is a hoe, fo sho."

Good job ruining one of the only keeper songs on Eclipse for me.

Is AP back on the drugs? Why is he looking so gaunt? He's always been thin but this is different.

I don't think it's terrible but I didn't need to see Neal nestling near her tits at the beginning.

I've had this one since April '09.

Ok, I just watched this video again, and I'm left scratching my head (the one on my shoulders ). What is the fucking point of this video?!? It's just terrible in every respect. At times, it reaches a summit of mediocrity, but it's just not fucking interesting.

In my eyes, they had 2 choices. The first being a totally disgusting sleaze fest that would get the tabloids and networks talking. The second would be a truly romantic "story" within the video. This video is neither. It's a miraculously mundane waste of time that really does a disservice to a pretty darn good song.

Who's advising this fucking band? My guess is Barnum and Bailey, Crate and Barrel or Bartles and Jaymes. Jesus Friga Christ. What a waste of (minimal) creative time and energy!

Does she know that she's your girlfriend?

Yes, much as she probably regrets it.

Is this video up on youtube? I'd love to see how many hits it has and what the comments are.

Ed should upload it to the Tube

Neal Schon sued for $50 million stealing guy's wife

Tareq Salahi is suing Neal Schon's for $50 million because Schon stole his wife.

Can he keep his money if he gives her back?

Salahi filed the suit Tuesday in Virginia, saying he and estranged wife Michaele Salahi were on track to make a fortune together from multiple TV shows, including "Dancing with the Stars," before the Journey guitarist's sexiness screwed everything up.

You never see drummers causing this kind of trouble.

According to the suit, Salahi and Michaele had an offer to make $150,000 to participate on the Australian version of "Dancing with the Stars" in 2011, an offer to appear on another network TV show in the U.S.

"Divorce Court," maybe?

But when Michaele ran off with Schon in Sept. 2011, Salahi says the TV shows pulled their offers. Which would be, you know, probably because she was now waking up with Neal Schon every morning. But here's where we get to the real meat of the sandwich. Salahi says Schon waged an X-rated campaign to humiliate him, emailing Salahi a photo of his privates and calling him on the phone to tell him, "I'm (expletive) your wife." In the suit, Tareq claims, "The act was a metaphorical slap in the face."

Yeah, that's a tough one.

Salahi claims Schon humiliated him in public, too, since the publicity increased interest in the band's concert tour, which resulted in a major boost in ticket sales.

Maybe Salahi should start his own band with Neal Schon's ex-wife.

I think just the opposite of what this article insinuates. Tareq and Michaele realized about 6 months ago that their 15 minutes of fame were up. One, both, or all 3 of these goofs concocted this silly plan, and now it's playing out. This whole ordeal is completely fucking bogus. It reeks of a last desperate attempt to stay relevant, as I mentioned earlier, by one, both or all of the stooges involved in this charade. The problem is that they're all very uninteresting people and it merely prolonged their demise. But it's coming, and soon. Trust me. For 35+ years, Neal Schon only cared about playing guitar, as it relates to Journey. He needs to go back to that thought process ASAP.

"You never see drummers causing this kind of trouble."



Okay, I try to keep the music separate from the personalities of the musicians so I've been trying to keep away from all these stories.....but I did view the vid and read that article and this line is hilarious!


I wish Neal would keep his lovelife and the music separate! I really liked that song and now I will have a mental picture when I listen to it I would prefer not to have! It's one thing for musicians to write a song about a girlfriend/wife from emotions that inspire the writing but they aren't doing themselves a favor when they make things that are visually connected to the music or parade it as being for only one person onstage. People like to connect music to their own life and when you make art it has to be something that anyone can connect with to be successful with a broader audience. Neal has connected a very good song to a tabloid sideshow. Ugh!

This was posted by someone on Arnels site. This is embarrassingly bad. One more person who has been trying anything and everything they can to become famous without having any talent what-so-ever to get famous with.




Time for me to go back to ignoring all this and not give this woman any more attention. She has no talent to pay attention to.

I don't see any of this circus parading being good for the band or good for promoting the music. I feel bad for Jon and Arnel right now. Especially due to what he's done to Resonate which Jon wrote and Arnel sang. Neal may have completely pulverized the stone now.
