KoRn need to start a festival of their own in Bakersfield and call it KoRnfield
That shits funny
Crazy part is that it really could work
Too much money sadly.. you need slipknot or ozzy money for that kinda thing
@@geddyleesowlnose Korn has money....
@@travisspaulding9540 not millions to throw tho.. I love korn. But it's true
Man Jonathan seems so fun to talk too.
I love how Jonathan talks TO the person asking the question and not disregarding them being there
27 years ago, I had a friend who gave me 2 tickets to a concert at First Avenue here in Mpls, and the bill was House of Pain, Biohazard, and this band with a funny name Korn.
I wasn't a fan of any of the acts, and I had never heard of Korn, but it was a show and free.
Me and my girlfriend at the time made jokes all week leading up to the show about this bands name, Korn.
The day of the show, we came to a packed house.
Lights went down, and I see these 4 guys walk onto the stage, the drummer hitting the ride cymbal. Next came a bass line that was intriguing. Then the guitars, and it was a sound i had never heard from a guitar, let alone a 7 string (we were right up front).
Then, this skinny dreadlocked guy comes out, sporting a bright purple ADIDAS outfit.
And then, 3 words were screamed with intensity that changed my life forever.
The band kicked into Blind, and i was hooked instantly!
The show absolutely blew me away. Every somg was a monster adrenaline run!
27 years later, I own all of their albums, 18 live shows, I was able to meet them, multiple posters, shirts.
Korn is just as relative today as they were 27 years ago. No matter what they release, I will support, either as a band or solo projects (except Fieldys Dream, every fan has their limits).
To say Korn is my favorite band is a massive understatement. And this year, they WILL be on that Hall of Fame ballot, and WILL be inducted!
To Jonathan Davis, Reginald "Fieldy" Arvizu, Brian "Head" Welch, James "Munky" Shaffer, David Silveria, and Ray Luzier, THANK YOU for creating the kick ass music you have for the past 27 years!! Here's to another 27!!!
Cool story, here's to another 27!
goosebumps reading that, almost exact same thing happened to me in 97, craziest show I've ever seen, been a huge fan ever since.
@purefuckingarmageddon its a goofy hip hop album. There is a few good tunes but overall it's very forgettable
@purefuckingarmageddonit is one of the worst records, legit is shockingly bad haha
I rarely get chills reading someone’s comment but that was one man
Wow, what a great interview with Jonathan Davis! I truly enjoyed watching this. Jon is such an awesome guy. He's been my idol for 24 years. It's really hard to believe just how much time has gone by... He'll always be my favorite lyricist. His lyrics have saved my life on more than one occasion throughout the last 24 years. Very thankful to this man... He'll always have my respect and gratitude.
Same here.....so true...
JD is so much calmer now. He doesn't play with his hair near as much as he use to, and he's not fidgety. Love that guy! Korn 4 life🤘🏽
Anxiety meds
@@travisspaulding9540 He's been off those for years.
@@THEDRESHOW yeah I found that out when I watched the rest of the interview.
@@travisspaulding9540 Cool! I am proud of that dude!
OMG!!!!! Jonathan, is so sweet, talented and HOTT!!!!!!! He REALLY seems like someone you can kick it with...like to have a coffee, beer or roll a joint with. I grew up with their stuff and still jam to their early work. Fan for life!!!! I'm glad he does these things. It really makes a difference and so does his music with Korn.
a l l i s f u l l o f l o v e he’s sober but he will still roll joints lol I love him
I love JD's take on Social Media and how we used to do things.
Let's be real here, anyone who's dad is a Korn member is hands down the coolest kid in his school by miles lol.
Imagine having Jonathan as a dad holy shit.
@@MyMProductions3 aaaahahahahahaha 😂
He is the sweetest guy. What a nice dude.
❤ so real i love that
Jonathan is so sweet.
Finally! An hour ish long interview type deal w Jon ♡ hearing him talk
I cannot say it enough....I fucking love jd!! He is such an amazing musician, lyricist and human being
This man is a living legend, and I am so goddamn happy and proud to be able to call myself a fan of his band and life`s work, both as a solo or band or whatever artist. KoRn really changed, inspired and saved my ever-content-changing life innumerous times, and continues to do so, and by now it feels like an anchor to reality and emotions. Thank you guys for existing and being the way you are! Btw, I`m 29 and I have been listening to KoRn since I was 11. I know its not "wooooow", but stil man, thats a lot of years, I know that many people out there will dig the emotion, each in their own way, but cool nonetheless, right? Love for everyone out there sharing the same understanding!
I know exactly what dude at 49:52 is talking about. You can hear it at the beginning of freak on a leash ( I Believe Jonathan says something) intro to BBK (there is a whistle like it was continuing from a different track like Dead Bodies Everywhere to Children of the Korn) and probably more
This was a great interview. Excellent questions from everyone, and a really restrained interviewer. Great job, JD has awesome insights and advice
Thank you so much!
What an awesome,down to earth guy. This made me love him even more❤❤❤
This interview is fricking awesome, great content, i mean how can you not like Jonathan Davis?? Most kind, down to earth legend!!! rock on Jon and...stay..strong??!! wtf i didnt mean that to rhyme lol
I enjoyed this interview a lot. Jonathon Davis kicks ass
This interview was amazing! Path of Totality is such a vibe. Surprised more didn’t like it.
Thank you!
This is an amazing interview!! JD is the most humble, down to earth musician I have ever met. He’s so nice!!
He’s so amazingly talented!!!!
I saw the Black Labyrinth tour twice and had meet and greets both times. The tour was amazing!! They were amazing live
KoRn has really saved my life since the beginning, 94, self-titled!!!
KoRn has a sound all their own! Munky Creating a series of signature 7 string guitars!!!
I love you Jonathan your pain is so close to mine I have severe borderline personality disorder since I was around 9 years old steaming from a severely abusive monster for a father I've known nothing but abuse my 41 years it's mainly times overwhelmed me and took me deep into its shit cycle of dark pathetic fits where I've attempted suicide many times cutting overdosing on pills whatever you can do to end your pain that's been my fucked up life... Watching Jonathan talk makes me cry, feel and feel close to him I'd love to sit and tell him my story hug and cry with him. I wish the innocent weren't hurt and abused its makes life non appealing and not worth living I wonder sometimes what it would've been like to have a normal life. But fuck I'm still here right thanks for listening ❤️
❤
Stay strong, Jonathan!
Best damn interview I’ve ever seen with Jonathan! 😍😍😍
Kristin Steele wow thank you! This made my night!
cool interview! I would have liked to be there, but I would probably have been too shy to ask him anything :) i can't wait for the book.. an audiobook would be very great because i love his voice, no matter if he sings or talks :) ! he can freak me out and calm me down and many feelings in between.. The reason I listen to music is that I am already in a mood or would like to get myself in a mood. Korn / JD has a song for everything! He will always be my favorite artist and i wish him all the best...
Wait, what book?
1:02:13 :)))
..
11:50-13:10 wise words JD
Genius that has stood the test of time and has fans all over the world.
YAY! I'm so glad this was recorded!! I had resolved to having had missed it since I didn't attend. Thanks :)
I get to go to my first KoRn concert on September 1st. I am beyond excited to get to see my favorite guys in the world perform live!
1:05 his dorky what’s up everybody 😂 I love this guy
This was wonderful, as I haven’t seen an interview with him in a long time
His voice is so iconic. I love it.
I love Dune as well. That film made me want to read the books and I did. Made it even more enjoyable.
Based
It’s EVOLUUUUTIOOOOOONNNN .
Highly underrated album! I get that it's not the Korn that people were expecting, but it's brilliant for what it is.
1:02:12 a moment of silence for that awkward question and answer. Glad I wasn't there asking a question though... I'd probably tell him I love him and give unwanted info about where he can find me also.
Great interview 💜 Jonathan you are so very real and very sweet and true ❤️ You've helped so many of us. So very much 🤘 Thank you 💘 Just to be so Open and Honest 💜 Much Love 💜❤️
great interview with a very talented man
Thank you!
i feel like the guy who asked the hall of fame question right now. Loved hearing Jons answer
Man those old days when music and everything about the musicians was a mystery were certainly the good ole days!! Social media has changed so much....little for the better....
Wholeheartedly know what he's talking about. I'm just a little bit older than him and came from Bakersfield myself. All we had were vinyl LPs and cassettes. And like he said magazines like Hit Parader,etc. And our imagination. Social media has messed everything up.
HAPPY 48TH BIRTHDAY JONATHAN DAVIS !!!!
It‘s really chill to watch this in the night before a working-day，making me laugh so many times 😀
I would love to talk and meet with this guy. JD is the shit
Jonathan your so inspiring with age is wisdom I m in y 50s realcompleslx trauma never heard of..thanks so one times I feel I shouldn't feel the way I do and judged by others. It's great to hear your wisdom thsnks
I actually really love Take a look in the mirror! It is raw but I love that about it.
SO SHWEEEETTT...much love Tee with LIONS NAMED LEO.[the music worldwide}
my old BAKO friend.....so cool to see you here..!! ..hope to see you again when in bako...!..
WOW! Kudos to the audience questions..they were great ones!
S.O.S is in my top 3 Korn albums best snce issues imo.. Love Jon an Korn .. When was this recorded? I assume before Devon's death.
It was recorded maybe two months ago
chrono050 August 1
I can't remember what part of the interview when my ringtone went off on accident. Then my manager text me if I can come into work, lol.
im so buying book when it comes out
GREAT INTERVIEW!
What a cool dude. Excellent interview
Thank you!
dude hes so adorable
Amo a korn 😿💗 realmente los amo
I think that Asian lady, Tina, stood next to me front row at the Korn show in Portland October 2024. She came there from the BMO show in LA a few days before. I think it's the same lady!!
I swear I can remember being in high school and buying "Untouchables" when it came out, I don't even think I purposely went to buy it, I had seen them play a few times with tours and they were fucking awesome live but i never was hooked on Korn .... bought untouchables somewhere, popped it in driving home and to this day it's probably the only album that Just blew me away almost instantly...( albums usually have to grow on you even the best ones).
Untouchables was like each song just got better and better but I couldn't skip ahead because I was so into the song I was stil listening too but I knew the next song was probably better....
Like 20 years later I find out that what actually went into recording that and how much money it was and they purposely were trying to make the best hard rock album ever recorded, litterally inventing new tech .........37 year old me "I FUCKIN KNEW IT! " lol.
Still in my top 5 albums of all time ..ever
Only Jonathan can do Cannibal Corpse death vocals, hip hop, soft melodic and metal vocals....in the same song!! ,,,and make it AWESOME !! ;-)
Sounds very small in interview as well as singing in slow ,but when he sings very hard his voice is so big unlike his real voice
I love him!
Thank you
Where is The Book, Jon, where is it?
Great interview
Thank you!
Love Jonathon, he's fucking beautiful 😘
Geez!!! How tall is Jonathan?? He has such long legs! (Unless its the camera angle....)
He's 6'2 he's pretty tall, I love his long legs!
@@qweenofhertz oh!! Ok! That's definitely pretty tall!! I love JD so much! He has such a beautiful, morbid mind!! 💜
@@bobbilowery2975 Indeed, he's amazing in all ways and I love him so much! I've listened to KoRn since I was six so I've loved him for a while... lol
@@qweenofhertz absolutely!!! I was 16 or 17 when their 1st album came out. I've been a huge fan since!!
@@bobbilowery2975 That's awesome! I'm even trying to get my parents into them, and they hate metal, but they seem to be liking it so far, so I might finally get another person to talk to about it, lol!
What a humble
i feel like he's always on one when i see him now
31:57 jon's sarcastic "ou." 😭🫶
his legs are so long. like i’ve never noticed that..
I mean he’s like 6 foot something tall, kinda puts it into perspective lol
19:32 LOL!
10:13 it is the passion, it is the letting go.
love you JD I would love to have your music in my animated series with your permission
U need to email them bout that bro
Hmmmm .. so that means, we are gonna have more new and awesome and different music from him,
for the next let's say, 20 or 30 years maybe ? Wow man, that's gonna be fuckin amazing (pfff .. imagine that)
... i mean that's what he said, right ?
Greetings from Greece jonathan, we love you
I call the ‘escape’ music headphone music. When I was 13-14 it was Black Sabbath, Pink Floyd , and Led Zeppelin ( mainly their first ).
Yup he's a Capricorn just like me well me like him. I love all that he says MICHAEL MYERS AND TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE THE SHIT!!!!
What a great great guy. The one dreadlock joke killed me. 😂
great
Wnere is the interview at with him showing him looking homosexual in highschool at?
55:13 funny :)
follow the leader- untouchables-haters
Jonathan just looks like a guy who would meditate in a park shirtless
JD For President
But if he ever does see this my name's Shelby and I have some friends in the business and I would love to meet you Mr. J.Davis.
SO SHWEEEETTT...much love Tee with LIONS NAMED LEO.[the music worldwide}
....J D is old friend of mine...from back in the SEX ART days....so cool..!
Christian Death! Nice I listened to them as a little Goth girl
"Native american flute.. I can play the fuck outta that thing"
those chairs look ridiculously small
Korn should do another festival with younger hardcore bands and hip hop again. Suicide boyz Will haven and Fleshwater would be a sick show
not entire month since his wife died, I find him oddly calm and happy
this interview was posted after his wife's death. this was right before it happened.
They should have had an intermission, you can hear his voice going.
Still listen to depeche mode and danzig man
hee haw? Being English I've had to use the internet to have heard of it. When I think Hee Haw I think John 5 but now I'll think John 5 and Jonathan Davis
When Jonathon spoke about his children and their interest in music, that woman who let out a cackle, and said “How do you feel about that?” That twinge of negativity in her voice really pissed me off!
Haha.. I grew up in Indiana as well and grew up on Hee Haw😂
Lol
Awesome 🌽
Lol jon did got money by lil wayne. I live in bakersfield
Right there with ya, JD...lol
hills has eyes
Burnt offerings.
Hey nice name
Did he say sugar land????
i have been thinking of filming '''KORN the beginning''.......show ALL the old sites...and explore ''SEX ART''.....and ''UNCLE MAXX''....and ''TRAXTER'''.....could happen....! we see IF the KORN fans want it...
Go for it!!!
@@We_Are_All_Vultures could happen..!
That one lady just wouldn’t shut up and it made me mad
