      Thats my wonder. How can a God. Not just any God. But the alfa and the omega. He loves me this i know. I feel it comfort me when iy down. Today i closer than iv e ever been. Im wondetinf how many ti.mes I've been in this place. Filled with empty space huh. What?
      Ur soft a nd tender love will always shine for me. Stop. Calm. Breathe. Dont look around. Stop. Im. Not here to pursue happiness. You cant chase happiness. It come from right thinking. But who controls the narrative for the meaning. Life liberity? Whos life. Who's liberty. Scared old white hearts. Funny how white equates to purity. Whoye mans purity is only sought out to exploit. Dom.inate steal withput guilt that a lovnig wouldnt tolerate. Could you lie to your mother? Shed snatch you bald if you started a bull shit lie. God is my father yet he knows Im deceiving

    Of all the musical performances I've seen now on Colbert's Late Show, this was the best of them all. I knew Jon was talented, seeing him every night you get a sense of it - but I'd never actually heard his original work. Bravo is all I can say. That touched me.

    The Late Show with Stephen Colbert I usually watch clips of the show on the CZcams app for my PlayStation 3, which doesn't let me comment on videos. Ten seconds into the song, and I feel the music is so powerful that I had to pause it, open the app on my phone, then restart the song... I want to be able to close my eyes and listen, then share my first thoughts upon finishing the song. That says a lot about the work, in and of itself... I rarely *ever* comment on CZcams videos unless they are posted by friends.
    ...
    Damn, son. Just... Damn. 'Hope' is a great word for this song. Moody, soulful, yearning.... and yet uplifting. If you translated the horn of Herbie Hancock to piano, and added the voice of Louis Armstrong, you might get the kick this song hives the listener. My feels are gonna have a bruise for a few days at least, Batiste, pun intended.
    You are one magnificent son of a gun, and I'll be buying that album for sure.

      You should watch this stuff on a big HD TV with proper speakers (not a soundbar!). If you don't have a Smart TV get a ChromeCast, and pair it with your phone, then you can watch on the TV and comment via the phone. I use an old laptop paired to a ChromeCast, so I have a proper keyboard.

      Nathan Talisien I like how you expressed yourself and I agree for the most part! I was tickled when you made a point of saying it was edited for spelling errors and grammar! I’ve done the same or where I left out words 😁 but I never bothered to say that was why I edited. I guess I feel like we shouldn’t need to explain why editing was necessary. I remember the first time I read where someone actually through an insult because of editing!! I was like; “WHAT “. One of the silliest and lamest things to complain about!

    Some butthurt comments about "Oh he totally ripped off Moonlight Sonata". It's clearly inspired by it, but it is an original work. It doesn't detract from the fact this is a superb piece of music that was expertly and professionally performed. Also, keep in mind, this is just a single from his entire album. We don't know what the rest of it sounds like. It could be completely original. It's possible he selected this as a single, precisely because Moonlight Sonata is so well known. It is a strong debut, that makes me want to purchase the album. Kudos to you, Jon, and I hope it becomes very successful. If even 5% of the almost 5 million subscribers to this CZcams channel buy it, he would be doing pretty good.
