Founding guitarist Neal Schon and keyboardist Jonathan Cain steered the project with producer Narada Michael Walden, while Arnel Pineda, the Filipino singer who joined in 2007, delivered some of his most powerful performances. The aim was clear: to honour the melodic arena rock that made Journey a household name while proving the band still had new songs worth hearing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"The Way We Used To Be,\" the first single, opens on a moody, cinematic note before climbing into a stadium-sized refrain. \"You Got the Best of Me\" charges forward on a classic Journey gallop, Schon's guitar lines spiralling upward, and \"Don't Give Up On Us\" mixes hope and grit in true power-ballad tradition. Later, \"United We Stand\" closes ranks with a rousing, fist-in-the-air spirit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAcross the album, Schon's playing is a constant highlight, fluid and fiery in equal measure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor fans who grew up with the band's 1980s anthems, Freedom is a welcome sign that the flame is still burning, and still capable of filling a room.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57499446772017,"sku":"4050538803495","price":13.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0704\/2026\/7313\/files\/Journey-Freedom_CD.jpg?v=1794507970","url":"https:\/\/vinyl.com\/products\/journey-freedom-cd","provider":"Vinyl.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
