Defying Gravity (Wicked) || epic male ver.

[@jonathanymusic]

What should I cover next? 🔥 Popular? Ballad of the Witch's Road?

[@alexanderkennedy3736]

No Good Deed

[@danielsantiagourtado3430]

WITCH ROAD PLEASE

[@Marskilius]

What is this feeling?

[@LillyJericho]

Popular

[@fefniromega]

Both, I vote both because of how truly perfect this became.

[@ThePkmnYPerson]

I can't believe Universal let you get away with just uploading an unedited scene from the movie.

[@ColtonRMagby]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Good one, man.

[@dmk_games]

I think they are tricking the copyright detection algorithm by slightly reducing play speed. That is why it sounds a little deeper.

[@ThePkmnYPerson]

@@dmk_games Yeah, that's probably it.

[@ColtonRMagby]

@scottdunn4506 No, it's called "ignorance of what the fandom does."

This gives me hope for a no one mourns the wicked metal version

[@dellarosa24601]

Probably next year when it’s topical so he’ll get the views. Fingers crossed!

[@CatiminiCovers]

I'm hoping for a No Good Deed metal ver!!

[@MrDarthGaber]

crazy that john naturally turned his skin green for this role, truly dedicated to his craft

[@mysterysunfurled]

He drank the green elixir🧪

[@Zekken001]

​@@mysterysunfurled 🤣🤣🤣

[@danicraven5493]

It's a filter and I love the random bit of him reaching over to the left side and seeing the filter either glitch or leave it's designated side.

[@LeMedjayYT]

THIS is the kind of cover where you say "damn the guy really added something to the song", it's not just a copy and paste with another voice. And THAT'S real artistic work, giving a new and different vision to an already existing work! And that's why I love you Jon and I love your kind of cover, I hope you really had fun on it because I had a lot of fun watching and listening to it!! 🔥🔥

[@Scrofar]

SAY IT LOUDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK!!!

[@bernardomarkuskampffdemelo4323]

Funnily enough, while i personally love Jonathan's covers, my dad has criticised most of them claiming they are too similar to the original songs. One of the few he thought was different was "Africa"

[@KittyArmistead]

I need this video to blow up so I can have more Broadway covers I also love Jonathan originals

[@Cami-Cat]

I'm holding space for this song

[@lawrencehoward460]

I didn't know people were doing that 😮

[@Landlin3]

That's really powerfull.

[@RichaadEB]

2:25

[@Landlin3]

lmfao

[@the_highlandparkmonster2401]

Yes

[@charlie.1564]

The goofyness of the visuals reverse-match the serious work you've put into this one! Wickedly epic! 🔥

[@Scurrylillamb]

I love that Brandon came along to essentially just happy dance 🤭 but seriously what a great cover! Love both of your voices.

[@MemorytheChaosPrincess]

Seeing Jonathan green was NOT on my list of things to do but I am all here for it! 👀💚🎶

[@lancegergar8848]

Thanks again! Always love creating with you! 🤘🤘🎬🎬🤘🤘

[@CeLillyMusic]

Green/bluescreen editing with that green skin must have been fun! 😂 I saw the movie yesterday in the cinema, it was so good! I really like that you kept some of the blue notes of the movie rendition ☺️ such a cool cover!

[@hellgast0]

He wasn't actually green, it's just a filter

[@courtneythompson6179]

Blue notes?

[@violinroyalty8872]

No no no

[@dellarosa24601]

As suspected, I put this immediately in my favorites playlist. I saw Wicked on Broadway with my school 15 years ago and this hits every note I needed it too.

[@gagethedeerkiller]

4:24 that part was incredible

[@clairedavies7394]

Heavy metal defying gravity didn't know I needed it until now. You sir have an amazing vocal range. I wish you the best and definitely cover the ballad of the witches road. It would be another epic

[@brianahawkins8124]

​​I LOVE THIS ROCK VERSION OF DEFYING GRAVITY!💖🤍💚🖤

[@AmandaKThompson]

I've been waiting years for this version of Defying Gravity. The very distinctly Jonathan Young flair in the background at the end is awesome. I don't know what instrument that is, but it's got strong Galatikraken vibes. Loving it ❤

[@weylyn6516]

I showed my mother your disney villians album in 2017. She loved it, and i would occasionally catch her listening to it. Wicked is her favorite Broadway musical. Its a shame shes no longer with us to hear this masterpiece. Tears to my eyes, and goosebumps all over

[@saiyanbornqueen2039]

Omg never knew i needed to see brendan as glinda. So adorable

[@gwendalyn444]

FFS Jon! …can really tell when you love a song and want to sing it. WICKED HOT VOCALS 🔥

[@fefniromega]

This has become something of pure beauty that is 1000% Jonathan Young, even the video is pure awesomeness packed with fun! You guys did a stellar job, please do more Wicked, please keep being all around awesome.

[@robertofiend1264]

Saw u do the drums on stream and my god, what a masterpiece this has turned into. From the mess of a mountain of tempo changes (he’s one of those guys who stay true to the original tempo and I mean ORIGINAL tempo, which includes those little tiny ones scattered throughout the song) u made was certainly worth it. Amazing cover!

[@andrea.d.93]

That awkward finger-holding/stroking at 3:08 💀

[@HouseMDaddict]

The reference to the interviews got me 🤣😂

[@AnjiKaizen]

The cute lil dancey dance between you guys really got me. Top tier music video 10/10

[@deniblackmore2179]

At last! After all the teasing shorts, we finally get the full version and man was it worth waiting for! Fantastic! ❤

[@GAWOP00]

Fact that you made it me smile, laugh and straight up enjoy myself; is one the reason I keep coming back to listen you. I find myself playing some of your covers to my choir kids as inspiration as to how music is a expression. And how we choose to express that music is what makes music so beautiful and amazing. Never lose your spark, and have a wonder Christmas or holiday.

[@DrizeldaHartman]

Brandon has been going wild with all these collabs! And I am here for it. Love this song and love you two!

[@katygaston8777]

So glad to see you in videos again!

[@a.m.308]

Omg 😂 The finger rubbing from their interview just cracked me up. You guys are naughty😂

[@jojostarsea]

1:59 bro put that much enthusiasm into it knowing he was gonna turn him down 30 seconds later 💀

[@danielsantiagourtado3430]

This cover will be WICKEDLY GREAT! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@brandonallers6351]

The wickedest part about all this is that we had to wait this long! Awesome as always TY for turning off the gravity for a few minutes.

[@carissavixen]

OMG! @branmci is the perfect Galinda 😍I need more epic Jonathan + Brandon covers in my life!!!

[@Drag0nmaster]

BANGER SONG!! My gramdmother used to have the begining of her ringtone as defying gravity, so this just knocked me with a heavy dose of nostalgia. Idk what else to put besides this is a serious bop

[@Minerva-ev4vp]

i absolutely love the acting Jon put into this, it was beautiful

[@tearez13]

im 15 seconds in and this has moved me to tears- because i can't stop laughing

[@theundead1600]

Hulk goes green when angry, Johnathon goes green when metal. 🤘🤘🤘🤘

[@feliciakay07]

This was incredible. This song still gives me goosebumps! Holding space for this cover ❤

[@LeahLovesNature]

AAAHHH yes! Thank you for this! I've loved Wicked ever since I saw it on stage when I was 12, and I'm so happy there's a movie version now (and that it's as good as it is) because it's inspiring all these awesome covers of the soundtrack.

[@MattDerschracquetball]

Bravo. First time I’ve ever gotten chill bumps and laughed my head off at the same time

[@rebeccacuthbertson1271]

Excellent job gentlemen. Absolutely wonderful. Thank you.

[@CSGmediaproductions]

I’ve been waiting YEARS for you to do something like this! Literally YEARS. Ever since I first saw Wicked ❤

[@riley7036]

Your tone sounds so nice in this one! And what a fun arrangement. Video pops off too 😄

[@justjoddat]

Production value through the roof! This is great.

[@BlackflameWanderer]

Dude! This is by far the most gorgeous sounding Defying Gravity I've ever heard yet! Instant favorite, seriously I love this!

[@shadowldrago]

Incredible as always, of course.

[@tooth2887]

i didn't expect this but like... it's 300% welcome.

[@ElykRindon07]

Great cover!! i love how Brandon McInnis is enjoying himself hehe from arrows and suns to wands and bubbles I see. iykyk 😅

[@acetokingakazekesalizer5211]

ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE!!! ❤ As me and my friends always say....Always save a place for Defying Gravity

[@ColtonRMagby]

I'd pay to watch that version of the movie in IMAX not once, not twice, but TEN TIMES!

[@AnkaJon]

Terrific vocals, terrific music. That's great, Jon. Your voice gives me goosebumps.

[@pygmiegoatsheepbeat]

I KNOW it's like the most obscure movie in the WORLD but the 1993 version of Rigoletto has some seriously great songs. In particular, April Child and 'The Curse.'

[@lawrencehoward460]

I had no idea how much I needed this in my life 😅 this has been a genuine gift.

[@Chloegrossek]

This is freaking awesome 🤟please do more of these metal versions of theatre covers. I’d love to hear you do the greatest showman

[@UMCmetal]

sounds epic!

[@Mothianna]

Epic, funny, extremely talented!! Bringing bliss indeed. Thank you for your work!

[@sarahberry4389]

Oh wow!! EPIC! Absolutely loved it! Thank you ❤

That was so worth the wait! Amazing job!

[@laurelmcneilly741]

AMAZING! By God you've done it again! It was certainly worth the wait. ❤

[@Kazookid2930]

DAMN it feel good to be a technical theater metal head rn ❤

[@KierstenDarden]

lol ✌️

[@novalowers8776]

Dude! Phenomenal! Chills the whole song!

[@jacobkusnerik8809]

This is AMAZING! You are a true artist, sir! You really do defy gravity with every cover you do!

[@corancoranthemagicalman]

Dude, you ALWAYS impress me with how much CONTROL you have over your vocals!! The build keeps HAPPENING and it hits every single time!! (And that's not even to MENTION how bangin' the track is.)

[@andralea2144]

I was relistening to your phantom covers recently. This is such a treat

[@rasenshuriken9076]

This is a Certified Oz Classic!

[@awarenyx2803]

🔥🔥🔥 finally going to see Wicked in theaters tomorrow and after listening to your version the hype has begun to build!

[@INGLINFILMproduction]

This was so amazing! It brought tears to my eyes 🥹

[@jaydencosplay12]

Jonathan Young X Brandon Mcinnis You Guys Are Fantastic Also Y’all Should Do A Collab Album 💿

[@CKwolf741]

Ah yes, another amazing cover of an already amazing song.

[@anthony7697]

Johnathon Young here on a KZbin channel putting out a video with better effects and editing than at least 80-90% of what's coming out of Hollywood these days.

[@nereol9165]

Jon is wearing a suit again... Been a while or? 😅 Thanks for putting so much into the video as well. Amazing!

[@wolfer192]

This is so lovebly! 😊 Especially the "random" dude playing guitar in the field is awesome 😎 Keep howling! 🐾

Popular!!! You definitely need to cover it

[@katygaston8777]

Yes it’s finally here!

[@casanova--]

I cannot believe what I've just listened to. This is seriously TOO GOOD.

[@AnkaJon]

It's just amazing. I'm speechless. Incredibly powerful work.

[@lexwritesthings]

You may have made me cry, Jon. Not fair 😅 Lovely job.

[@anneroosv]

As much as I love your metal, I love your voice in ballads and the "softer" (?) parts in songs like this

[@BeneathFullMoon]

This is perfect ♥

[@danielsantiagourtado3430]

Jonathan does it again ! He's the Best for a reason! Please consider WITCH ROAD

[@matthewparker5277]

Amazing cover, you never fail to make a great song even better in a different kind of way!

[@samone4401]

Bravo Bravo Bravo 👏

[@juliotorres3789]

This is the metal version we didn't know we needed to bring in 2025, but now my soul feels complete. Oh-ahhAAAAAHHHahhhh

[@RachelPearcyArt]

Fantastic and well worth the wait!
