    JD is genuine, down to earth, soft spoken. His singing is raw with emotion and real with pain. It’s impossible to listen to Korn and not feel. It just works so well, his vocals and the music, you just cannot listen to it and not experience what he is. I’ve been a fan for 27 years! I’ve seen them 5 times in concert. It’s always a therapeutic experience. If you haven’t experienced KORN live, do it at the first opportunity you get. And then, go back and do it again! Love you JD.

      @Ewolf5150 No man I totally get him, have you ever experiencenced so much rage yoh want to hurt someone/yourself or you just need a release, maybe you shout, maybe you become depressed... Well, KoRn is pure emotion, it's got tempo changes is has rage and Jonathan Davis puts his raw thoughts and feelings into these songs and into his live performances and if you know then you just know how it feels to headbang along, feeling the words, the dark dirty bass, everything has personality... He may be just a man, but so was jesus if you get me...

    @Scyber_Official Před 5 lety +7

    This man has been through some tough emotional stuff. I'm so glad I've got to meet him and the rest of the band multiple times, shared stories and gave them demos of my music. I've been a Korn fan since 1995 when I first heard "Shoots And Ladders" on the radio when and about 2 weeks later I saw their music video for "Blind" on MTV late at night when my parents were out at the bar, and vividly remember jumping on the couch and breaking a table lamp - my parents came home about 10 minutes later and my stepdad beat the shit out me. It was another beating I took when he was drunk.
    Life experiences like this are the main reason why Korn is my all time favorite band because Jon sings about abuse and BS I've been through, I was 12 years old when I discovered them on my own, got to meet them at their Korn Kampaign '98 when they released' Follow The Leader'.
    And multiple times afterwards.
    This band is my Beatles.

  • @veteran_of_pain
    @veteran_of_pain Před 5 lety +3

    Loved seeing Jon just relaxing and answering questions at his own pace. Breaks my heart to know that I want to, and may never see him and the rest of KORN at a live show in my life. I've been a solid fan and still listen to them quite often still to this day, new shit, and the classic shit. Jon and I have alot in common when it comes to shitty backgrounds growing up, and trying to find our way in life. He's got 3 great kids, I and my girl can't have kids, "MY" darkness continues on with our attempts and heart-wrenching dissapointments. I've tried to get bands going, but got screwed in the end because I wanted more, and the rest wanted to make what people expected to hear, leaving me in the darkness. I was super fucking excited when HEAD came back to the band. At that point in my life, I thought to myself....he can do it, Why can't I? I found the love of my life, and try my best to make life whole.
    I've come to terms with not being able to see my favorite, and first rock/metal band live in concert, but still dream about it, and bow my head to those guys for still doing it, just as solid as the old days. I send my love from PEI, Canada, and wish KORN all the best in the future. Maybe someday this broken man will see his Idol s in concert.

  • @nickdotjpg

    I thank JD and the rest of Korn for everything they have done. Their music helped me through a lot of dark times in my life in recent years and if it weren't for them showing me that it's okay to open up and talk about the negative things, I probably wouldn't be here today. Through the negative comes the positive, and they taught me that through that first Korn record. Thank you, Korn.
