So, here's this guy who is a gift from on high. His voice is amazing, remarkable, beautiful and such a joy to hear. And then on top of all that he is perhaps one of the most sincere and kind people I have ever seen. Regardless of the media platform. Truly, truly, his parents must be immensely proud. Wonderfully done Mom and Dad.

[@truthjustice4640]

At a time when our Country seems to be blind, and unappreciative of our Country’s resources and talents, it’s a blessing to see there are a few people,that appreciate what we have as a Nation, and recognize real talent and a gift from God, because this man has an exquisite voice, and looks like a remarkable Human Being, but we don’t understand it, because now people are starting, to like to deal with crooks, traitors, deceivers,corrupt fraudulent people! As we see it on tv, but no one want to touch it because they are in their circle the MEDIA!!!

[@tinacarrol6702]

Brilliant. What Fun Jonathan. Thank you. Xx 💞

[@Sonja14athome]

Hello Jonathan! Your sharing of yourself here is so genuine - so appreciated. You have been blessed with the joy of making a living in the field you love & you share that joy and love with each of us every time you perform and with every interaction you initiate. My mind's eye sees you thinking,"Oh, man! I'll bet my fans will love this!"- then off you'll go to make it happen. You enjoyed singing before ever performing, so you don't sing for us to love you. You sing for us because You Love Us. You share the story of each song with us and whether or not we are able to understand the language, we still understand the story, feeling it in our hearts, because you have sung it to us from yours. Interviewers always bring up the loyalty of your fans. That loyalty is not just due to your extaordinary talent. It is also because we find you to be an extraordinary individual. That has been true from the start on BGT, and continues to be the case today. Thx for giving us a look behind the scenes. Great seeing your reactions! Re the capes - they have become a signature part of your performance wardrobe - you wear them and use them well! Thx, Jonathan, for everything you do and are! 🌹

[@mgee8545]

Jonathan, you have such a sweet, uplifting demeanor. Your modesty and down-to-earth persona through your rise to fame are refreshing and admirable. You stay true to yourself and shine like a star. Thank you for sharing your journey. (I'm 50+ years old, reside in Coshocton, Ohio, USA, have never listened to classical or operatic music prior to seeing you on BGT in 2012, and I'm a fan. 😊)

Kenn Kiser . Yes he is so adorable, so normal and relatable and then he opens his mouth to sing and this majestic voice comes out of him which goes right through me and gives me goosebumps and makes me cry.

[@Glubber-1]

I’m in Westerville, Ohio, 50+ years old and I have never cared much for operatic music until seeing Jonathan and Charlotte’s BGT audition-just for the first time a couple of months ago! I have watched or listened to it a zillion times-I love his voice (and shaking hand) in it so much-and have been listening to his albums as well. I love what you said to Jonathan in your comment, Kenn Kiser. You took the words out of my head. :)

What a fabulous fun filled vlog, Jonathan!! It is great to see what goes on behind the scenes and I have watched it several times now. Wearing your wonderful and stylish capes looking absolutely fabulous, smiling and having fun too, and enjoying the whole process of filming is exactly where you should be - Singing to the world , and the world will sit up and listen to your incredible voice and want to hear more. IoSi (Seen) is breathtakingly beautiful and each time I hear you sing , it gives me goosebumps. It is just the most perfect song for you ! Thank you for sharing your wonderful day with us. Love you so much Jonathan. Love and hugs. .xx

Thank you for this backstage view, Jon. Few of us ever get to see such insights. I appreciate your sense of humor about it all, which makes it even more fun to watch! Btw you're lucky to have such a head of hair (for some of us, that's a distant memory)...

[@suetiffin6917]

Many many thanks for this wonderful, fun, informative and at times very moving behind the scenes video. I absolutely loved watching you mess around in your cape, swishing and twirling. Also loved the editing, including, the little straightening of the lampshade, the fabulous shots of you singing and the fun find of a fold up fan. Your lighthearted commentary throughout was extremely entertaining. Your joy and exuberance from the whole experience shines through. Loved it so much, thank you. xx

It is so refreshing to see you enjoying creating something that we can enjoy and love. You also show us some of the Jonathon that goes on behind the scenes as well. Keep blessing us with your voice and we will bless you with our love.

[@twistedsister9940]

I am trying to imagine what the people around you (filming, hair, makeup, etc) felt when you were singing! I would have been so taken away, I think I would have dropped the camera! When you start singing, everything around me seems to fade and I am transported to another realm entirely. Honestly, it's like I have no sense of time...only focused on your voice and the music. Due to your behind the scenes recording and sharing your feelings, we feel like we are there with you. The stark contrast with the beautiful setting in the church and then going outside and seeing the graveyard reminds us all of our own eventuality. However, it also reminds us to use our God given talents while we still have the chance! You, my dear friend, are doing exactly that! Love from South Carolina, USA. Hope to see you in concert one day.

[@robynm7221]

So true I second your comment❣🙆‍♀️

This video was so much fun! More than just, a behind the scenes peak. Probably derive as much enjoyment viewing as Jonathan does, doing all of this. The fact he takes the time and effort to share his experiences with us only exemplifies what a wonderful person he is as an individual. I just get the biggest kicks out of it, I really do. I cannot help but smile and don't think there is anyone in this world more deserving of such an extraordinary gift and all of the magic in things yet to come. There isn't an adjective yet created to describe how great Jonathan is as a whole.

[@glennishiggins3007]

That was interesting! We couldn't see the change of clothes on the actual video of io si. Blue shirt, red waistcoat and maroon cape to start with then white shirt, purple waistcoat and cream cloak for the final scenes!
