Jonathan Davis What Have I Done High School Pre-KoRn Demo

[@ms.gamerladyharlow6871]

His voice when he was in high school... So cute. The start of his musical career was building up slowly but surely. Damn good bop!

[@AltFreak25]

There is no denying he had talent even without a band. Holy shit!!!!! This is good.

[@korncows1]

dude is legion status

[@Loki-sk7bi]

Queen of the damned soundtrack was a testament of how talented he is.

[@realozzy1467]

He went from this to koRn and its unbelievable

[@NEFARIVM]

Some ppl like to think that metalheads hate Elektronik music but that is not always the case, in my case i was always a fan of Depeche Mode, Ladytron Aphex Twin, etc etc and even Euronymous was a fan of techno

[@brinhas420]

Tell me not... They should make a movie on JDs life before korn and begin it in high school and end it after korns self titled was a success.... So it'd probably be a long movie because that's covering his sexart times high school times, recording things in high school and what he did outside of school. That'd be fucking great but I don't know who would play him. Please share this to at least try and get it out there to be made because I know all of you think about what he went through in life

[@GloomRaiderOfficial]

Aaron Saber also include the rest of korns members. Giving a back story to each member, try not to focus too much on just one. David, Munky and Fieldy were all in L.A.P.D. together so you're just focusing on 3 bands. Korn, Sexart and L.A.P.D. Start the movie with them in their high school setting to show what they were doing at the time, their home life, how they were treated in school, hobbies other than music, how they met. Even go into Jonathan's dark past if he is comfortable with that, Show his jobs at pizza hut and as a coroner's assistant. Try to fit that into a 1 hour window, then really take off with the music. Fitting it into a 3-4 hour movie which I'd be fine with. It would be a fantastic movie Id definitely pay to see, I'd pay double the ticket costs to see this film.

[@davidmish6218]

I think they called this stuff new wave back in the day. Jonathan Davis is insanely talented making music. its takes all five guy in korn to really make korn what it is even without David I think Ray is the better drummer and korn has evolved bigger then what it would have with David. But there is no questions that Jon Davis is the driving force of Korn

[@cyndi795]

Synth-pop is sub-genre of New Wave. All of you millennials missed out on the best era of music. It was GLORIOUS!!

This is frickin' awesome! I was so into this style music in high school also. I would have been head over heels in love with him back then just the same as I am now though I'm a few years older than he. I love you so much JD. You are a talent extraordinare! XO

[@ignazhwahlsteiner8784]

Well it is said on Wiki that our boy's fav band were Flock of Seagulls. Also there are videos with him covering Duran Duran, u can check it out. So its very evident even now how sensitive and st shy JD is. So for me its not a big surprise. New Wave was so popular all throughout 80s: Soft Cell, New Order, DM, Roxy Music, Visage, Talk Talk etc. And even now there are new bands. For example this song sounds very similar to early Lust for Youth demos

[@LinaPinilla_jpg]

Looks like Depeche Mode style (Violator Era). And there are some Kraftwerk beats (2:04)

[@mrv1111]

This does sounds like Depeche Mode.

[@Adamo_92]

Thats a very good point there my friend. I was thinking the exact same thing about Slipknot not to mention that they have a very long history and movies about slipknot and korn should really be made. I mean, They made a movie about Eminem called 8 Mile for Christ sake! :S.
