He's not bad... but I think his voice is too high.
2:27 despite it being a tad too high, he performs this song amazingly, there's definitely no saying he sucks or anything.
It's just...
He's no Steve, and he's definitely no Arnel.
And the thing is, that's exactly what makes this thing so crazy. How could anybody be? Yet, Arnel exists.

2:25 I've seen a lot of commenters point out that Steve never hit those high notes on live versions of "Open Arms" and it seems like they were right.
1:00 he comes close in this one.
1:00 yeah he does some type of variation of it.
He's smart... he knows what he can do and what he shouldn't.
That's why he left Journey... cuz he has damn good judgement.
There was no reason to push it and drag the band into this elderly golden years feel, running on less steam and whatnot.
You gotta know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em.
For anybody who is that vocally powerful to stay the same into their 50s just sort of rare.
Steve is iconic.
