Arnel Campaner Pineda (born September 5, 1967) is a Filipino singer and songwriter. He came to prominence in the Philippines during the 1980s and internationally in 2007 as the new lead singer of the American rock band Journey.

At one point in his career, according to former bandmate Joey Narciso of Davao City, Arnel’s handlers thought of rebranding him as replacement to April Boy Regino – who disappeared from the music scene. The idea did not prosper. Thank God.
