[@robertofiend1264]

From a suggestion on a Twitch stream to reality, this is fucking beautiful. What a great first start to the year.

[@brianshrode72]

My wife and I danced to this song at our wedding. One of my absolute faves. Love to see Jonathan do this epic cover!

[@jaykubisanidiot8657]

A quiet, contemplative song for a quiet lull in an uncertain time... No one is getting younger and everything seems like it's almost over... I Love you All! And we all love you Jonathan Young!

[@BeingBetter]

Jon's the best on KZbin

[@RainGodSlayer221]

he sure is same with caleb hyles :) there best friends @@BeingBetter

[@BeingBetter]

@@RainGodSlayer221 I know they're best friends, I'm a big fan of both of them. I have met both of last summer. It was amazing.

[@arokh72]

Agreed. I'm 51 and feel the weight of years behind me, as I face the same uncertain future many of us do.

[@keithwhiteman9160]

...did you listen to the whole thing?

[@Tamtarter]

This was my dog's favourite song, whenever he heard it he'd come running and be really soppy. It's been 4 years and I still miss ya Logan

[@joelrelova]

My best friend had to go to sleep today… miss her already… 😢

[@edwardwestmoreland-caunter6128]

The way you go from calm and gentle to emotional outburst is always such a gut-punch in the best possible way. It always feels like this person has been trying to remain calm in a "I would really like it if you stayed with me. Please?" then the dam breaks and they're like "F**k it, I really can't lose you, you are my world and I'd have nothing if you left." I got similar vibes from your "What Could Have Been" cover. Truly beautiful performance and reimagining of the original song

[@HattisFnattis]

Your comment completely destroyed me 😭

[@edwardwestmoreland-caunter6128]

@@HattisFnattis sorry about that

[@HattisFnattis]

@@edwardwestmoreland-caunter6128 It's all right. It's been a tough year.

[@edwardwestmoreland-caunter6128]

@@HattisFnattis I'm so sorry. Sending hugs and hopes this year treats you better

[@ashusikildigir7170]

This song mean's the world to me. My stepmom was very important to me and my childhood. Helped pull me out of a horrid situation. Life happened, we grew apart. Though would still meet up when it was physically possible. With or without my siblings. Then I got the call. It had been about 15 years. She wasn't likely to survive the next couple days. I hauled ass cross country; spent a month at her side. Working night/swing care. The hours I spent laying on the sofa next to her bed shooting the shit. As this song rang in the back of my head. This is a wonderful version, close to the version I sang in my head. I really miss her. Thanks for making this.

[@Miro_X]

I'm sorry for your loss. She sounds like a good person.

[@pastelpunk4137]

My music instructor has always said to me and other bands: go softer to go harder. The dynamics change makes it hit more. You going the softer, gentler first half, slightly more energy for second chorus, back down for the bridge, and then HIT us with the last chorus. Gorgeous as always. Would love to hear your spin on any Coldplay song, or make people REALLY confused if you did banger metal version of a pop band song. (Imagine Bye Bye Bye but metal)

[@julieperkins5329]

Yes he would do a Coldplay song great.

[@BeingBetter]

"Chasing Cars" by Snow Patrol came out in 2006, when I was 16. I ended up buying the entire "Eyes Open" Compact Disc maybe two years or so later. This song brought back a lot of memories. Working at McDonald's, listening to CDs in my car every chance on my breaks, driving to work, driving home. This cover is particularly good, Jon. Gave me goosebumps at timestamp 1:58. The echoing effect is a cool choice, I love how it's different enough from the original to stand out. So much passion when the heavy metal sound comes in! I was floored. Rock on Jon, you are amazing!!!!!

[@happyascheese]

I've always loved Snow Patrol. I have 4 of their albums that I've collected over the years and I really like this cover. Jon did a good job.

[@BeingBetter]

@@happyascheese Nice!

[@TW2Vlog]

Such a great song, covered by a great artist.

[@riley7036]

What a throwback! I used to listen to this album all the time. I love the tone/effect on the piano.

[@michaelarends7903]

I love you man but this is not it. Too much autotune and synth

[@laurelmcneilly741]

No it's not, it's beautiful the way it is.

[@260480life]

This is so relaxing and at the same time sooo powerful

[@GlowBerri]

The anticipation building in the first half of this was sooo good and the pay off was amazing

[@BeingBetter]

Yessssss, such a payoff, I knew it was coming but it was like listening to it for the first time. Ahhh.

[@NightFuryLover31]

2:30 hit me so hard! This cover is just awesome! I'm not that big into metal music, but I always love every song you come up with!

[@zacharymeyer4669]

Same. Not big on metal myself but Jonathan just hits different. Best wishes to the goat!

[@HereThereBackAgain]

Straight up goosebumps!!!!!

[@cassideus42]

When my mom was fading away in November, this was one of the songs we played for her shortly before she passed. Hearing your version just hit me REALLY friggin hard. Great job.

[@reespewa]

Greetings from the UK, this song was huge here when it was released in my youth and is bringing back alot of memories. Really needed to hear your cover of this, thank you!

[@natashawalker2393]

Absolutely 💯 agree! Back in 2005 or 6 in here in UK i think? A flood of memories brought back with this stunning version.

[@Suledna]

Years ago, my youngest Son would lie down on the floor with me, holding my hand whilst listening to this song. It was an amazing moment in both of our lives. He is 23 now and it's a memory we both cherish. Whenever I hear this song my answer is always, yes, I would lay down with you. It's a beautiful song and you did it well ❤

[@MrDarthGaber]

no matter the circumstances, this song always hits like a truck. love this rendition!

[@chelliespider]

One of the most romantic songs ever created, in my opinion. Jonathan, the passion and joy you bring to your art is amazing to behold. (Wipes away a tear before running off to Spotify to obsess for a while.)

[@nereol9165]

Whoever had the idea during the last stream I'm grateful cause this is so beautiful and amazing. 💜 And damn guys, that was fast! Well done Jon and Brandon!

[@linny1640]

New Year, New Cover

[@dutch_blades]

This version manages to invoke and convey more genuine emotion than the original ever did; well done, sir.

[@davidguthriemusic]

this was beautiful, one of my favorite songs and this arrange was super unique--love the vocoder harms on the first half!!

[@tinagillmore7796]

The second half is definitely my favorite part. Please don't take this in the wrong way, but I just kinda wish you hadn't added so many effects to your voice for the verses in the beginning. Your voice is so amazing, and I feel like all the special effects in the first couple minutes kind of detract from it. The chorus and the end are amazing though. Especially when you went from all amped up to pretty much everything but your voice stripped away, the raw emotions in both of those juxtaposed takes were so powerful.

[@MatthewTheWanderer]

This is phenomenal! This song is underrated and needs more attention!

[@MysticWhoppr]

i lost my dad june 23rd of 2023. listened to this 2 days after it was released. such a beautiful song. not gonna lie, cried a bit. thank you for reminding me I'm only human.

[@Travis2263]

One day after my birthday... I'm sorry for your loss

[@brianwong6989]

This was an absolutely stunning rendition of one of my favorite songs. I love the sheer contrast between the almost lo-fi like beginning; relaxing, contemplative, almost synthetic with how metered out the verses and syllables were. And then the latter portion was just filled with so much raw emotion, a truly human outcry of passion, almost desperation to feel like you belong; shouting out to the void for someone, just anyone willing to hear your voice. At least that's my interpretation. Thanks for the feels!

[@sirtad401]

I haven't heard this song since I bought the album all those years ago and put it on repeat for a couple weeks. It's unbelievable how awesome this is. Excellent work.

[@aaronprevails]

Love the power you put into your covers Jonathan! Great Work!

[@lukegold4089]

This was mi ex's favourite song. She got it from some show about doctors. I was never really into that series but since it wasnt a big deal to me, ill just join her whenever she was watching it. Man, she really like it. But most of all, she liked when i went visiting her with icecream and a coke. Specially on rainy days and the appartment all to ourselves. Simple things. We were happy. Maybe we didnt had that much in common. Many discussions would ouccur. But still we loved each other so much. I was such a coward. I shouldve fought for us...

[@AnkaJon]

It's so beautiful, I have no words. Amazing voice.

[@Diana2112Gaming]

On the 17th of June last year, my partner of many, many years lost her struggle with cancer. I couldn't be in the room with her because COVID. Her favorite song was Chasing Cars, and in fact it's what I played her to sleep with. I think she would have approved of this cover. Gods but I miss her. Thanks for this.🥲

[@jillmeed4082]

I absolutely love your version of this song. I have had it playing on repeat for days. You know how to show emotion in your singing and that makes all the difference.

[@itherevenant]

Man this hit me in the guts, so powerful, man I love it. The heaviness but melodic and then those double off timing just totally tops it off. More melodic covers like this please?

[@DanielGagne]

2:21 and on... Dear god man, this is one of my fav cover version of ANY SONG EVER.

[@marsc2245]

That show me at 2:57 was perfect. 👏🏿👏🏿

[@NaturallyCreativeme]

This is perfectly done ❤I’m in love with this song.

[@Consolous]

Such a wild take and approach. I love it

[@matthewkeily9554]

Love this cover, listen to this song a lot when I’m feeling down and your spin on it is amazing! Would love to hear you cover something by Rise Against, maybe like ‘wait for me’ or ‘paper wings’ but keep it up mate, your songs are amazing!

[@LeMedjayYT]

It's been a long time since you made a clip for a cover, always a pleasure to see you entertain the camera. And the camera rail is really cool! Keep shining in 2024 Jon!

You were my #1 artist on KZbin Music last year. The beauty and power that you brought to this song is the reason why I love what you do so much.

[@Doctor__B]

This is beautiful ❤

[@ludsayuri3847]

I love your voice and emotion in this, I swear ❤

[@LoveStruckSinner2]

Your vocals with this song...I felt the emotion. I actually teared up. I've been following you for years and I have watched you grow. Thank you so much Jonathan, thank you for being you

[@Subjuga]

Haven't heard the song in ages. Love your take on it!

[@KGEarlFam]

I love the original. And I love how Jonathan rocks out in the ending. Great cover.

[@sparks928]

There it is: the Jonathan I fell in love with. You never left, but this style of accessible melody and smooth clear vocals, a la “Echo Chamber”, “Alone”, “Walked a Mile”, and “Bait”-or even most of “Starship Velociraptor”. Goodness, Jon, you’ve got a wonderful ability to convey emotion with range (beyond varying levels of aggression). Love it! Keep it up!

[@justinvenable917]

His cover of "Never Too Late" is also pretty similar to this cover.

[@goldosprey]

An epic cover to a very lovely and poignent song. Bravo!

[@deniblackmore2179]

WOW! That was beautiful - so powerful! What a start to the new year. Love it. ❤

[@MisguidedWarden]

One of the best artists, absolutely love your voice!! Thank you so much for this and all your music ❤️❤️

[@TGlovescultistchan]

I think it'd be cool to see your rendition of Show Me How to Live by Audioslave As for this song, I can say nothing other than that you captured the emotions of the song gave them a bit of your own soul and turned them loose on our ears. Always a pleasure to hear you sing, whether covering a song or one of your own originals!

[@LeslieNichols95]

There's so much emotion in your face! This cover is one of my favorites that you've done!

[@locusofintent]

Fantastic. I never expected it, but in retrospect, it works so well.

[@LadyValishade]

Gosh I've always adored this song! Amazing cover!

[@samairborneshepherd]

Saw a clip of this on tiktok, had to check out the full thing. You definitely have a new fan and I’ll be showing my friends for sure! Great job man!

[@Helloneida]

I really love snow patrol and in this song you managed to put a lot more emotion and feeling through your voice and your way of being. I would give a response to this song (lyrics): "I wouldn't lie down next to you to forget the world, I would stretch out my hand to show you the garden that is exploding with life."

[@Mothman_In_a_T-Pose]

This is fucking amazing my guy. It honestly feels like what the song was meant to be--it encapsulates the overwhelming emotions of the lyrics so well.

[@bazrimizer1]

Goosebumps 🙌🏼 🔥

[@Daniel-vw7ck]

Damn haven't heard this in years, my sister and I use to smash this song on sing star!

[@RISunBird]

Soft & slow, then rockin! Love the growl in your voice! Awesome

[@TheGman620]

I used to sing along to this song all the time when it came out and hearing you cover with such passion and emotion is just too amazing for words. Incredible job as always.

[@user-wg1zl4fg5h]

It's beautiful, I have no words at all. Vocally perfekt.

[@Poppeton]

The chills hit in waves. This is as powerful and beautiful as Disturbed's Sound of Silence. 🖤🤘✨️

[@arson6777]

Goosebumps the whole time

[@raymanx187]

Hits me right in the feels.

[@chrishall06]

I hated this song for such a long time as it was played at my Grandma's funeral. Listening to your version of it has made me fall in love with it.

[@kmdugger]

This brought tears to my eyes. So beautifully done.

[@RaineReaver]

I absolutely love the electronic effects applied to your voice, really elevates and distinguishes the performance, wonderful work.

[@Ysemor]

metal can be so powerful in a contained song like this

[@krisduff878]

@jonathanymusic Brother, the beginning AT FIRST seemed overfiletered and underwhelming. Upon the ramp-up, it melded perfectly and flowed into the most violently beautiful storm. Amazing job, my friend.

[@HazelPlace89]

[@itsTM]

I always loved this song, especially since snow patrol are local to me, but man you put so much emotion into this! I'll happily admit I cried on the internet today. Much love

[@kristencawker2582]

So beautiful and I love the way that you did the arrangement in the first half and then go all metal and belt it out in the 2nd. ❤
