The first time i listened to Jon was through Beautiful Now (Zedd). I was curious to know who the singer was and looked up all his songs. I slowly and steadily listened to Jon’s old music and current music and I don’t remember when but I found a home in his songs. My grandma got really sick from cancer, and i remember sitting on a swing at 10pm listening to Mah’s Joint almost everyday. I listened, i cried. I felt, i cried.
Hand of God always amazes me- the ability to add 4-5 songs in 1 song is genius.
IRobot, Human make me reflect on life. So does Stupid Deep, Luxury, Fashion, and Conversations with my wife.
I was listening to Thick Of It All for the first time the other day. I had no idea who it was by as it randomly started playing, but i found myself grooving to it. Then i hear a “come on” and i point to my Alexa being “wait I KNOW THAT VOICE”. Had to look up Genius to find out that, surely, it was produced by the man. I LITERALLY KNOW WHERE HE’S SINGING IN THE WHOLE THE ALBUM BY JONAS BROTHERS.
Can i be proud of that? Are you all proud of that? His music needs to be studied.
So happy this is a space where we can find each other and share our first memory of Jon’s music.
It’s so nice to meet you all here. -
I haven’t had social media on my phone for over 6 years. I’ve missed out on interaction and times and tour memories yall held dear. I wanna re connect and hear about times on tour or moments listening to albums for the first time, people you’ve met. What ever here.
Like I said this forum is sort like social media for me. The emails and here is where yall will get everything first.
@User12261990 Your music has been the light through some dark times in my life. My dad got sick in May of 2019 and I would just have your discography on loop for my 2.5 hour commute one way to go visit him several times a week. I had seen your Dallas show on June 28th and that helped me escape the reality of what was happening during that time. My dad ended up passing a few days later on July 4th. Maybe IDK and Hand of God really hit me hard during that time and will still bring tears occasionally now. All this to say you really do have an influence on how people cope with rough times. I know you really helped me when I felt the most lost.

One of my favorite memories was hearing JT live on the GSP tour.
I became a fan during Human Condition, and I think JT was the first single released after I became a fan.
I can't remember a time looking forward to music more.
So when JT was played live, and EVERY SONG had a brand new feel live...the sound was so huge...it was like a celebration of life, a celebration of the joy of music. I closed my eyes and danced and LIVED in that moment. It was special.

@User12261990 I remember my first team hearing hand of God and luxury I knew something unusually great was in this music. After becoming a Christian in 2020 I now know it was the touch of God on my soul.

@User12261990 first time listening to you ever was after my sister self admitted for the first time, my grandma passed away and my cousin passed away. I listened to maybe IDK probably 2000000 times it became my comfort song. your music became a background to my life as years passed. Then I went thru a divorce in 2022 and lost my family through it. Stupid Deep then became my comfort song. I finally went on a first date post divorce and we listened to my liked songs. When Stupid Deep came on my now boyfriend soul mate love of my life in every life started tearing up. The same songs got us through hard parts of life, the true invisible strings that eventually brought us together. Now we dream of going to a show live, and dancing to 2 Rocking Chairs at a future wedding
thanks for making music that connects us to ourselves & to others!

It’s so nice to meet you all here.@Vanshikachats I love that moment when you’re like “I KNOW THAT VOICE” he’s in so much music I’m glad he’s able to make his own again.

@User12261990 Man, you've been such a huge influence on me. I found you in college in 2014, right around when the Definition dropped. Before you, I didn't have a "favorite artist". I heard Jungle in my friend's car and was like "Who the fuck is this" and that was that. I saw you on the Definition Tour in Chicago, I met you via VIP on THC tour in Chicago (again) at House of Blues, and then I saw you in St. Louis. My entire view of music was shifted by your art, Jon!
@Agiftandacurse
Wow my experience was similar first song I ever heard was jungle in about the same time and I was sold, he instantly became my first favourite artist especially when I realised that some of my favorite songs were something he had a part in. -

@User12261990
Each and every reply here sounds like we in church and people are giving testimonies, but it's no surprise your a miracle to us most of us would have never found an artist we can relate to whose lyrics and sound are so heartfelt like yours. Your art is magical and I'm happy to have experienced it in this life. I'm patiently waiting for people to see more of what a prodigy like you will put out️ cause you really are timeless

@User12261990 Your music has been huge for me, both in my own musical journey and in connecting and growing with my family and myself. My sister is a massive fan and she got me into you around the release of The Human Condition, and the musical artistry and heartfelt nature of it all hit me so deep. Songs like I, Robot and The Good in Me got me through painful breakups. On top of being a genius level album reprise with insanely inspiring layering and dramatic tension, the Hand of God reminded me to always look skyward when things get too tough. Then finding your work bridge over into EDM with Illenium and Zedd fully sent me, as I'm a bass music producer and enthusiast at heart.
If you ever see this Jon, just know that I dream to be as musically gifted and inspiring as you, and I will work to show you and the rest of this forum that I have something worth showing the world. Thank you for helping me be a Kid Again.
