In a video ranking how scared Paul was dung each song, someone in the comments pointed out that when he's with his friends and particularly with Emma, he gets really protective. That comment made me fall for him so hard!
Coco Pops he has eyebrows like Joey’s; they show so much emotion just by themselves! He has a perfect face for stage so people in the back rows can still see his emotions.
Jon’s acting especially through his voice is absolutely amazing. He’s completely convincing as a normal guy in TGWDLM while he’s this amazingly talented and attractive guy. He has a similar quality of acting to Jeff Blim, but we’ve barely seen Jeff pretend to be sane, let alone normal, so that’s why Jon’s acting is so shockingly great. His scene with Emma where he says “now, are you frightened?” actually makes me die every time I hear it because of what he does to his voice. It’s the same with some of Jeff’s stuff, ahem, “with wheels that are cIRcLeS”
I think that Jon has the best acting in his facial expressions, think "please god I just want a black coffee", "have I finally come around to rhymin' scheme", or "OOOH right in the SUBPOENA" at your convenience, his voice is a huge part of this but being able to give an expression to the scream is another talent that he shares with Jeff Blim, think "oughwh!! What are youww", "Give Gotham Somethin' Sweet to Suck on Baby!" or "Give me that doll, I'm in a fuckin' hurry".
there are moments when jon gives off chaotic vibes but like... the complete opposite of jeff blim chaotic vibes. like a spectrum of chaos goes from jon to jeff on the extreme ends. i can't describe it but i just... feel it
SAME! For me it's because he's the newest, and his performance was totally awesome in TGWDLM! And someone pointed out that Paul gets really protective and brave when his friends and especially Emma are in danger, which made me fall so hard for him!
I think sometimes he needs the volume to reach the notes without his voice going too flat or cracking. I know fuck all about singing, but it’s easier to belt notes that are just at the top of your range I think.
when jon sang 'get on out there little death' i swear i imagined an angry devil screaming "*GET ON OUT THERE LITTLE DEATH, YOU NEED TO GET THERE AND MEET SOME FRIENDS*" but wearing a supportive best friend outfit and has a soccer mom personality and honestly i would pay money to watch that.

I have to say, I love TGWDLM, but I would watch a musical I hated just to hear him sing Let It Out - excellent performance. Did anyone else notice that the guy who hates musicals knew the words to Moana best? Lol.
Actually Paul was supposed to work as a movie critic, but they cut that because it'd be to time consuming and hard to explain. But still in that version he probably watched Moana for his job
I'm so glad you put in his whole version of "Love Never Dies" but I gotta say the original video is so funny coz you've got everyone else trying to relate the story back to Phantom of the Opera and then it cuts back to Jon talking about Death and Travis' love story 🤣
IVE RECENTLY GOTTEN INTO THE JEKYLL AND HYDE MUSICAL AND OH MY GOD NOW I NEED TO HEAR JON DOING CONFRONTATION THAT SONG SLAPS SO MUCH AND JON DOING IT??? THAT WOULD BE INCREDIBLEEEE
jon needs to have a reality tv show where he invites some if his friends and they do covers of musicals but just the two of them and on a $10 budget used for food and music... who else needs this in their life
With all his expressions, I am honestly surprised that I liked him more because of that like damn why is he so attractive I cannot comprehend how and why
You know i guess factually jon would have had previous acting experience but i always kind of assumed that jeff blim went on the street found the most bland looking guy ever and shoved him onto a stage. I love jon but just look at his face 😂
I’m confused are he and Jeff dating
Him and Rob are engaged (not really)
Nah Jeff is a fire that can’t be contained
Honestly no one knows
jon has a gf :))

Instead of an Angel and a Demon, we all have a Jon and Jeff on our shoulder
But which one is which?
Alyssa Stanley yes
I need a musical about this
And we cant tell which is which
true lad
Jon’s only been with us for a little while but I speak for all starkid fans when I say, we would all die to protect this pure little man
I've only known Jon for one musical, but if anything happened to him I'd kill everyone in this room and then myself
He's feral pure, like chaotic good boi, that we will protect.
In a video ranking how scared Paul was dung each song, someone in the comments pointed out that when he's with his friends and particularly with Emma, he gets really protective. That comment made me fall for him so hard!

You put it into words! It's like if Jeff Blim played only a conventionally sane person for 7/8s of a show before going full Jeff Blim
I love his his scream when Emma came out singing!

Chaotic good vs. chaotic evil
Anxiety vs. psychotic
when chaos follows you vs when you are the chaos that follows
We always new that Jeff was chaotic, but Jon earned our trust and then turned chaotic.
tender vs. feral
When I heard Paul sing “Emma” I actually cried. I was actually upset when the main character of a MUSICAL SANG...I never thought I would say that
it got me scared of him for a while because of how his face looked like. it looked like he had gone full psycho
@@abidivino I like to think that jon got to show how much fun he'd been having throughout the show in that song lol
Jeff and John
Chaotic Fun vs Chaotic Fear
Together they could either destroy the universe or save it
They’ve been fighting over it for millions of years
I reeaaalllyyy hate these people but it’s annoying me
It’s Jon*
I’m really sorry for being annoying
You’re not being annoying(to me at least) you just corrected someone, and you were super polite about it too so no worries!
And Robert is just pure chaos

“SING THE BEGINNING OF MOANA”
“WhaAaAT?!?”
Nothing is more iconic than Jon Matteson moving a rubber spatula around an empty pan while making up a story about a gay grim reaper

i need to have a link to what video this is from
please god i need it
The fun thisg about starkid is you can always hear the tenor harmonies because 🅱️eff 🅱️lim is constantly screaming at all of us
His mind.... I-
I'm not a fan of Jeff's weird inflections. It works for some parts, but I just want to hear his real voice for change.
Sarah Kinsey It’s angelic when he sings in his range
I think sometimes he needs the volume to reach the notes without his voice going too flat or cracking. I know fuck all about singing, but it’s easier to belt notes that are just at the top of your range I think.
Not gonna lie, when I first heard him sing let it out, I was crying for weeks
0:53 IS THAT A WORKING BOYS SWEATER
they have tshirts with that design on the website but I think the sweatshirts were a temporary thing/just for the cast
:o I need
I must buy
EXACTLY I SAW IT & SCREAMED, PAUSED THE VID, & WENT & LOOKED FOR ONE😂😂
** yeah it’s on the starkid merch section for TGWDLM
He looks so uncomfortable during all of this
there's a tumblr blog that's just pictures of jon being uncomfortable
@@avocadosatlaw8890 so every picture ever taken of him?
Honestly the coolest part is watching all his facial expressions. It’s entrancing
His face is so expressive I love if
5:40 whatever he's cooking looks absolutely delicious
Mmm
*air*
my favorite meal, nothing
Lowkey I think Jon is one of the strongest actors in starkid
It’s so odd not seeing him in a suit 😂
A weird thing I realized is that me and him dress the exact same and I did not know of his existence up until a month ago
0:40 why does it look like Jon Mattheson is just raising his tiny little baby arms
I can't unsee that now. It'll never be the same
jon is chaotic good and jeff is chaotic evil thank you for your time
also jon says gay goth rights w/ love never dies
Jon is the perfect balance between chaotic and neutral and that's why I love him so much
can we talk about how perfect his bees knees are like you cannot see the transition at all they're so fluid
Jon has the least intimidating shoulders ever. like they’re so soft and i love him
Its like he doesn't even have shoulders, its just neck and then arms!
my favourite part about love never dies is that the grim reaper is in love with travis mcelroy bc he was the first person jon could think of
Jon is the business casual version of chaotic energy
Jon: ” Death is gay for someone and his name is Travis”
Jon has the same chaotic energy as the rest of starkid, but in a i've-been-up-for-hours-I-am-losing-my-mind-please-send-help kind of way
We all know that Jon’s version of Love Never Dies is better than the real Love Never Dies (know I do like Beauty Underneath)
I love the cast, songs are decent, but the plot is thrown together
when jon sang 'get on out there little death' i swear i imagined an angry devil screaming "*GET ON OUT THERE LITTLE DEATH, YOU NEED TO GET THERE AND MEET SOME FRIENDS*" but wearing a supportive best friend outfit and has a soccer mom personality and honestly i would pay money to watch that.
why is no-one talking about how has has such a cute baby face but then neck down he is a *unit*
As much as I say I don’t have a favorite StarKid I frequently find myself loving Jon more than the rest, oops
It’s okay. We all have a favorite but we all also love them all equally
For me it's because he's the newest, and his performance was totally awesome in TGWDLM! And someone pointed out that Paul gets really protective and brave when his friends and especially Emma are in danger, which made me fall so hard for him!
shwoopsie
I have to say, I love TGWDLM, but I would watch a musical I hated just to hear him sing Let It Out - excellent performance.
Did anyone else notice that the guy who hates musicals knew the words to Moana best? Lol.
There was theory that he watched it with Alice and he tried to like it for her and so learnt the songs
I mean I hate the bible and still I can name the ten amemdmemts or whatever their name is and know most bible stories like know your enemy bby

Actually Paul was supposed to work as a movie critic, but they cut that because it'd be to time consuming and hard to explain. But still in that version he probably watched Moana for his job
Before tgwdlm when they did the best of peoples recollection series i was skeptical of jon at first but then he opened his mouth and I approved
Honestly Jeff’s version of Love Never Dies sounds like a beautiful new concept for a hit broadway musical.
I fell in love with this man the second he appeared on screen when I watched TGWDLM. He is just adorable and super weird
am i the only one that desperately want the Death and Travis story to be real?
Almost. But there is a death and Justin story.
This... yes this.. this is good.
aRe yOu fRiGhTenEd?!
i don’t know how to explain this but...he is the human version of fear from inside out
jon made phantom of the opera 2 into a love story about death and his boyfriend
0:39 it looks like Jon has little baby arms
Sarah Knuckles haha that's what I was thinking
IM FUCKING WHEEZING
Adorable haha
He does
OH MY GOD
He's someone one of the most sane yet one of the most insane StarKid members.
i literally opened his imbd page as soon as the notification rolled in for this
I will never be over his note in ' a kick line is inevitaBBBLLLEE'.
Honestly when I first heard his singing voice at the end of TGWDLM I was so shook like fuuuuuck he killed that number.
we call him a baby boy but he voiced wiggly so I'm never gonna think about him the same ever again
There are no clips from his ted talk in this and that's a crime
*be things*
He did what?
Coco Pops he made a ted talk parody and it’s absolutely hilarious, look it up u won’t be disappointed
@@peachiibee will do, thanks
Shut up, Tiffany. Just. Shut. Up.
Jon has quickly become my favorite Starkid
No shade I just love him
If there’s a spectrum of chaos with Griffin McElroy on one end and Jeff Blim on the other, Jon Matteson’s smack dab in the middle
i think he has the exact energy griffin would have if he grew up as an only child
3:08 You hear those screams? Those are the screams of anyone who didn't fall in love with Rob in Show Stoppin' Number falling in love with Jon
I'm so glad you put in his whole version of "Love Never Dies" but I gotta say the original video is so funny coz you've got everyone else trying to relate the story back to Phantom of the Opera and then it cuts back to Jon talking about Death and Travis' love story 🤣
I do like- still being alive
*MOOOD*
Now I need to see Jon do a full performance of "Confrontation" from Jekyll and Hyde! It would be amazing!
2:06 literally no-one talks about his amazing "WhAaAaT"
I just realized Emma screamed cause she saw the audience for the first time
IVE RECENTLY GOTTEN INTO THE JEKYLL AND HYDE MUSICAL AND OH MY GOD NOW I NEED TO HEAR JON DOING CONFRONTATION THAT SONG SLAPS SO MUCH AND JON DOING IT??? THAT WOULD BE INCREDIBLEEEE
I second that
Jon and Jeff have the same energy but also have opposite energies at the same time. you know?
I get to see this man play a chaotic doll LIVE in 3 months and 6 days and that scares me
* Reads Title * YES *YES* YES
I love how he does the review in the kitchen, while cooking absolutely nothing.
What was he trying to cook is my only question
A delicious meal of air.
@@suffercore4483 Ah yes
ARE YOU FRIGHTENED? Gets me every time
jon needs to have a reality tv show where he invites some if his friends and they do covers of musicals but just the two of them and on a $10 budget used for food and music... who else needs this in their life
jon and jeff give off the same energy but different vibes
Let It Out is just Jon being Gollum for a good 5 minutes.
someone: is there a way you could explain your anxiety to me?
me: well no but Jon Matteson is a pretty good representation of it
I met Jon when I saw Black Friday he was such a little dork but so cute and nice and humble I love Jon he is my favorite starkid💕💕
Jon is an accurate representation of me on a daily basis and I can’t tell if that’s a good thing or a terrible thing.
He’s so adorable in tgwdlm like when he’s scared he just makes this hilarious face
With all his expressions, I am honestly surprised that I liked him more because of that like damn why is he so attractive I cannot comprehend how and why
Whenever I watch TGWDLM and I hear Paul say “are you frightened” I think of the Dentist in Little Shop of Horrors saying “are you satisfied”
oh this is a blessed video
Y'all: Jon Matteson is one of the most cursed and chaotic Starkids
Me: Really?
*watches "Venus, Please!!!" by Jon Matteson*
Ok yeah
0:40 looks like Jon has tiny arms and I'm dying XD
I’m really new to starkid but I think I have decided that Jon and Robert are the best. That’s it.
i’m ready for grad school,,,,,but is grad school ready for me?
Ok but him turning into a snuggly little bean during the live and trying to hug everyone especially Corey was fHucking adorable.
THAT EXPLAINS WHY I LOVE LET IT OUT MUCH, BECAUSE I’VE BEEN OBSESSED WITH THE JEKYLL AND HYDE MUSICAL MOST OF MY LIFE
Jon has some of the best facial expressions in Starkid
Okay but "baby, it's good to see you again" GOT ME I literally squealed. I was so invested in Death and Travis
“🎵Get on out there little death, you need to get there and meet some friends.🎵”
