[Unremarkable]

Jonathan: How much Nostalgia do we want in this video?

Also Jonathan: Yes.

[nicoleslaughter]

This man’s voice is the equivalent of a cozy corner you want to snuggle up in. So warm.

[BarokaiRein]

I saw the title and audibly said: "How and why?" like this is the most softcore song I have heard in my entire life so I just didn't see this one coming.

Song request:




Your favourite song that you've always wanted to cover.

[calebholcomb]

I see fireflies, I click. I see Jonathan young, i click. I see Jonathan young AND fireflies; i break screen clicking.

[Krom-vmph]

Why does a man with such a powerful voice have such a nice falsetto?

[michaelnajoan]

As an Owl City fan that likes metal, I'm crying tears of joy right now

[howlinghellgar]

So this entire song was perfection but those high notes were PERFECTION

[tabythajones]

I can just imagine all the metal fireflies in your recording booth head banging to this song

[adityaghosh]

This song is like after heavy showers in the morning, the sun comes out from the clouds and the sky looks magical with a plethora of colours. U are driving on a highway across a lush green valley and u play this song in your car, wearing sunglasses and having the time of your life

[Sheamuscz]

I unironically love this and the original song.
Also, dang Jon, that falsetto!

[justynastarzyk]

To be honest, for me the best part in this cover was the end - when there was just your voice, without all the effects and editing. I love how you sound just like that and the special effects just hide your true, lovely voice.

[ZPerpetua]

Me: *sitting minding my own business*
Young: *fireflies*
Me: *ran over by a runaway nostalgia train*

[greeseyl]

So, I just wanted to share this story: back when I was a kid my dad was a vocalist for a band, so I grew up listening to him sing all the times. one of the songs they covered was fireflies, hearing the end I realized how much you sound like him when you sing.

[theinquisitionsparrot]

No matter how hard you try, John, you can’t ignore our cries for sabaton!

[avivagodfrey]

You + Owl City = magic. Dear lord, please tell me you'll do "Strawberry Avalanche" too. Or absolutely any Owl City song.

Gave me chills. QVQ

[goreysins]

Nostalgia of the early 2010s and when YouTube was fun 🥺

[tdtfrostycat]

You would not believe your eyes, if Jonathon posted a new video.

[oAvalono]

It's crazy how good this is. His voice is already so uniquely amazing, the cover didn't need to be this good but the mad lad did it anyway.

[anjero]

I love how clean your switch to falsetto is.
