  • 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!

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

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

    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)
  • 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

    "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!!!!!

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

    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 ❤

    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.

    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
  • @TW2Vlog
    Such a great song, covered by a great artist.

    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!

    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
  • 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.

    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!
  • @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.
  • @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!
