THIS is the kind of cover where you say "damn the guy really added something to the song", it's not just a copy and paste with another voice. And THAT'S real artistic work, giving a new and different vision to an already existing work! And that's why I love you Jon and I love your kind of cover, I hope you really had fun on it because I had a lot of fun watching and listening to it!! 🔥🔥
Green/bluescreen editing with that green skin must have been fun! 😂 I saw the movie yesterday in the cinema, it was so good! I really like that you kept some of the blue notes of the movie rendition ☺️ such a cool cover!
As suspected, I put this immediately in my favorites playlist. I saw Wicked on Broadway with my school 15 years ago and this hits every note I needed it too.
BANGER SONG!! My gramdmother used to have the begining of her ringtone as defying gravity, so this just knocked me with a heavy dose of nostalgia. Idk what else to put besides this is a serious bop
Fact that you made it me smile, laugh and straight up enjoy myself; is one the reason I keep coming back to listen you. I find myself playing some of your covers to my choir kids as inspiration as to how music is a expression. And how we choose to express that music is what makes music so beautiful and amazing. Never lose your spark, and have a wonder Christmas or holiday.
This has become something of pure beauty that is 1000% Jonathan Young, even the video is pure awesomeness packed with fun! You guys did a stellar job, please do more Wicked, please keep being all around awesome.
Saw u do the drums on stream and my god, what a masterpiece this has turned into. From the mess of a mountain of tempo changes (he’s one of those guys who stay true to the original tempo and I mean ORIGINAL tempo, which includes those little tiny ones scattered throughout the song) u made was certainly worth it. Amazing cover!
AAAHHH yes! Thank you for this! I've loved Wicked ever since I saw it on stage when I was 12, and I'm so happy there's a movie version now (and that it's as good as it is) because it's inspiring all these awesome covers of the soundtrack.
I KNOW it's like the most obscure movie in the WORLD but the 1993 version of Rigoletto has some seriously great songs. In particular, April Child and 'The Curse.'
Johnathon Young here on a RUclips channel putting out a video with better effects and editing than at least 80-90% of what's coming out of Hollywood these days.
I showed my mother your disney villians album in 2017. She loved it, and i would occasionally catch her listening to it. Wicked is her favorite Broadway musical. Its a shame shes no longer with us to hear this masterpiece. Tears to my eyes, and goosebumps all over
I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE THIS! MY FAVORITE SONG DONE BY YOU!?!? ARE YOU KIDDING ME NOW?!!? THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dude, you ALWAYS impress me with how much CONTROL you have over your vocals!! The build keeps HAPPENING and it hits every single time!! (And that's not even to MENTION how bangin' the track is.)
What should I cover next? 🔥 Popular? Ballad of the Witch's Road?
No Good Deed
WITCH ROAD PLEASE
What is this feeling?
Popular
Both, I vote both because of how truly perfect this became.
I can't believe Universal let you get away with just uploading an unedited scene from the movie.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Good one, man.
I think they are tricking the copyright detection algorithm by slightly reducing play speed. That is why it sounds a little deeper.
crazy that john naturally turned his skin green for this role, truly dedicated to his craft
He drank the green elixir🧪

SAY IT LOUDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK!!!
I'm holding space for this song
I didn't know people were doing that 😮
Thanks again! Always love creating with you! 🤘🤘🎬🎬🤘🤘
The goofyness of the visuals reverse-match the serious work you've put into this one! Wickedly epic! 🔥
2:25
lmfao
This gives me hope for a no one mourns the wicked metal version
Probably next year when it’s topical so he’ll get the views. Fingers crossed!

He wasn't actually green, it's just a filter
Seeing Jonathan green was NOT on my list of things to do but I am all here for it! 👀💚🎶
I love that Brandon came along to essentially just happy dance 🤭 but seriously what a great cover! Love both of your voices.

Omg never knew i needed to see brendan as glinda. So adorable

I LOVE THIS ROCK VERSION OF DEFYING GRAVITY!💖🤍💚🖤
This has become something of pure beauty that is 1000% Jonathan Young, even the video is pure awesomeness packed with fun! You guys did a stellar job, please do more Wicked, please keep being all around awesome.
At last! After all the teasing shorts, we finally get the full version and man was it worth waiting for! Fantastic! ❤
Incredible as always, of course.
I’ve been waiting YEARS for you to do something like this! Literally YEARS. Ever since I first saw Wicked ❤
Saw u do the drums on stream and my god, what a masterpiece this has turned into. From the mess of a mountain of tempo changes (he’s one of those guys who stay true to the original tempo and I mean ORIGINAL tempo, which includes those little tiny ones scattered throughout the song) u made was certainly worth it.

FFS Jon!
…can really tell when you love a song and want to sing it.
WICKED HOT VOCALS 🔥
Production value through the roof! This is great.
Excellent job gentlemen. Absolutely wonderful. Thank you.
So glad to see you in videos again!
im 15 seconds in and this has moved me to tears- because i can't stop laughing
Hulk goes green when angry, Johnathon goes green when metal. 🤘🤘🤘🤘
Brandon has been going wild with all these collabs! And I am here for it. Love this song and love you two!
AAAHHH yes! Thank you for this! I've loved Wicked ever since I saw it on stage when I was 12, and I'm so happy there's a movie version now (and that it's as good as it is) because it's inspiring all these awesome covers of the soundtrack.
I'd pay to watch that version of the movie in IMAX not once, not twice, but TEN TIMES!
Epic, funny, extremely talented!! Bringing bliss indeed. Thank you for your work!

Terrific vocals, terrific music. That's great, Jon. Your voice gives me goosebumps.
This absolutely blew me away. Incredible song and incredible video!!
🔥🔥🔥 finally going to see Wicked in theaters tomorrow and after listening to your version the hype has begun to build!
I KNOW it's like the most obscure movie in the WORLD but the 1993 version of Rigoletto has some seriously great songs. In particular, April Child and 'The Curse.'
That was so worth the wait! Amazing job!
I had no idea how much I needed this in my life 😅 this has been a genuine gift.
sounds epic!
i didn't expect this but like... it's 300% welcome.
Damn you truly never disappoint, what a tremendously good cover on the song, making it your own!

ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE!!! ❤ As me and my friends always say....Always save a place for Defying Gravity

Amazing cover, you never fail to make a great song even better in a different kind of way!
