      Man, I thought the same. I loved this cover from him because I felt the same thing. There just seemed to be an intense, relatable emotion put into it.
      Love you and your work Jonathan and thank you for all that you do for us.

      I remember an interview I saw once that for songs like this the artist will depress themselves to out real emotions into it. Either through horrible memories or other means
      I think he was ok, just probably did the same. But not all artists are the same so not all of them do that just throwing that out there :D

I've been having a particularly rough week, and it could not have come at a better time. I want you to know, Jonathan, while I'm sat here, weeping, missing her terribly, this is absolutely the most beautiful version of the song I've ever heard. And that she would have loved it. Thank you so much for this. Thank you.

    Lyrics:
    And I'd give up forever to touch you
    'Cause I know that you feel me somehow
    You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
    And I don't want to go home right now
    And all I can taste is this moment
    And all I can breathe is your life
    And sooner or later, it's over
    I just don't wanna miss you tonight
    And I don't want the world to see me
    'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
    When everything's made to be broken
    I just want you to know who I am
    And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
    Or the moment of truth in your lies
    When everything feels like the movies
    Yeah, you bleed just to know, you're alive
    And I don't want the world to see me
    'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
    When everything's made to be broken
    I just want you to know who I am
    And I don't want the world to see me
    'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
    When everything's made to be broken
    I just want you to know who I am
    And I don't want the world to see me
    'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
    When everything's made to be broken

I feel really moved by this one in a way i wasnt expecting. its a beautiful song as it is but this one was really performed with a different level of Passion then the others i feel.

      @KarlAndArma4ever Před 4 lety +2

      Which is something I don't understand about the original. Despite the romantic instrumentals, everything is laced with a certain nostalgia. It's very clearly about longing for happy times long past, about wanting to relive the good times without the inevitable pain that the world insists on judging you for, yet it's frequently played during happy couple moments in movies. It makes zero sense to me.

    • @myheadhurtsagain
      @myheadhurtsagain Před 4 lety +1

      @@KarlAndArma4ever That is certainly a good interpretation. I think however I might get why so many romantic movies use the song. This is a song about finding someone who understands you in a world full of people you don't, or maybe even can't, trust. The first verse is entirely romantic but it becomes stained by this trepidation in the end of the second bar. "And I don't want to go home right now". Clearly the person who is singing the song is quite happy in this moment, but the moment must end eventually. And then by the end of the first verse, we now know that the protagonist will never be the same after this experience, "I just don't want to miss you tonight." Because they know they will.
      The chorus in this light suddenly sings a very different tune. Suddenly we get a confirmation that our protagonist feels separate from the world. "And I don't want the world to see me, cause I don't think that they'd understand" is a powerful declaration. While they say "think" the emotional delivery in conjunction with the previously stained verse, should tells us that they "know" the world won't understand. That is all they have ever experienced. Until this moment, with this person.
      The rest of the song very much still follows suit with this idea. In fact despite how dark the words are, the last two lines of the chorus (especially the last one) really solidify this as a very romantic and vulnerable piece. "When everything's made to be broken" acknowledges that time is fleeting, eventually everything comes to an end, whether by death or other tragedy. "I just want you to know who I am" is a declaration that despite all of that pain and heartache, they are reaching out. This is important enough to reach out for.

    Captured the emotional feelings perfectly in your own way. This feels like your singing from the top of your lungs in a moment of very strong emotion, yelling out all that you feel.
    You took the song, my favorite song of all time, and made it your own.
    That's why I love your covers so much. Thank you for this.

    I know this isn't the real interpretation of the song, but with my anxiety and being somewhere on the autism spectrum the lyrics "And I don't want the world to see me/I don't think that they'd understand" really hits. Especially being followed by "I just want you to know who I am"
    Many people like myself have difficulties communicating exactly what's going through their minds. Even this little bit I am writing in this comment is mentally exhausting in a way, because I have to rethink every single letter and word. I've managed to work it out, but not everyone can.

      What I love about this song is that Rzeznik, even though he wrote it for City of Angels, designed it in such a way that it can be interpreted in any situation involving longing for acceptance - from a love, a society, or, how I view the song, your own sense of self.
      Though I enjoy the memey trollishness of some of Jon's covers, I'm glad he poured everything into this song - because it means so much to so many people.

    I had many father figures. Some family, some friends of family, some were teachers, among others. Growing up, most of them told me at one point or another that boys aren't supposed to cry. So, once I became a teen, I made the argument, that boys may not cry. But there's a difference between a boy and a man. Then I told them to grow up like I had. Ironic. I didn't recognize that I still had growing up to do myself. This is one song that brought me to tears as a grown man. It's a powerful song with many powerful meanings to different people, and it deserves to be heard by as many people as possible.
