He says anyone could have done it but the difference is he did it. He put together the editing, the planning, the musical talent, the personality, and more to create these videos. They're very hard to make and he does an amazing job. Jon is one of my favorite TH-camrs and I can't help but think his success is rightfully deserved.
I thought he just moved to LA to try to work with movies etc? Anyway, he said that he would gonna start uploading more not as a new year's resolution so instead of 4 he would upload 5 videos a year.
I'm not just fangirling over Jon because he's cute or funny or whatever; it's because he puts in all the hard work required to make his talent shine. His videos look so professional, and he does all of it, the writing, the arrangements, the editing, everything. If you ever read this Jon, I just want you to know that I think you're incredible and I know you're going to go from being 'TH-cam Famous' to 'Household Famous' because you deserve all that and more :)
This is a very interesting video, and a good talk, but the title is very misleading. This is about Jon's journey on TH-cam and telling a story, not Disney Princesses.
But he's wrong, not everyone could do what he does. He is creative, and funny and a really good singer and not everyone has all those qualities which makes him so special and which is why he deserves his fame. He works hard for it and he knows what he's doing so he shouldn't say "anyone could do it" because not everyone did do it. He did.
Well certainly not everybody’s good at singing but you can still do it without the things with your own personal talents you just need to find them. It is all of hard hard work. Maybe easier for some than for others but everyone *can*
He must really, really get to know his songs, his live performances (compared to original recordings) are better than many professional singers, literally.
The Aladdin part is even more relevant now that a poll has been released showing many US congress members would support bombing Prince Aladdin's (fictional) home country of Agrabah... I wish I was joking!!
+KunamaElgar I think Aladdin takes place in either India or Turkey.. Agrabah sounds a lot like a former name of an Indian city, Aladdin rides an elephant in his parade (only Indian Royalty did that) and the Sultan's gear looks like it's from Turkey
Except that the oringal Aladdin story took place in China, not in a middle-eastern county. But in my head Disney's Aladdin takes place in either India (Prince Ali ride an elephant in a parade much like Indian royalty did), Jasmine's home looks very much like the Taj Mahal, the name of fictional country sounds a LOT like a former name for one of India's cities or Turkey (due to the term "Sultan")
How Jon meets most of the criteria for my perfect guy: Disney fan: check Funny: check Introvert: check Musical: check Really fucking hot as fuck: check The same age as me: crap, I'm in High school.
My friends and I would belt After Ever After all the time in 7th grade, but we'd change the violent words in the Pocahontas bit to things like 'teacup' and 'grape'.
I WAS THERE! My dad spoke at that event when I was younger and when we got back home, I bragged about my dad speaking at the same TedX event as Jon Cozart.
You are such a beautiful person. Your message is so simple, yet so powerful and I love watching your success. Please never stop being so creative, love you so much!!
Ikr. Sucks to be not legal age. 😭 he's a sweetheart too which sucks MORE. He seems really faithful and kind. MAN HOW COME IM 14 😞 Shut up I know I'm too young but everyone gets crushes. 😂😭
SO PROUD OF YOU.
yes paint
I'm Equally Proud!
Agree completely. He is amazing.
Tyler Oakley has there been any Tylon Oakzart action going on?!
That was AMAZING
21 year old man-child.
You are a perfect Peter Pan.
I wish I could like this more than once.
i love this
captaincarl1 I was thinking the same thing when I first watched him last year 😂
captaincarl1 yesss
The best peter pan.
He says anyone could have done it but the difference is he did it. He put together the editing, the planning, the musical talent, the personality, and more to create these videos. They're very hard to make and he does an amazing job. Jon is one of my favorite TH-camrs and I can't help but think his success is rightfully deserved.
Alix Night I love him...he's awesome. always good for a laugh.
He is a wonderful comedian and singer, but he makes a video once every year
+Hanna Miller quantity < quality
I think he is university
I thought he just moved to LA to try to work with movies etc? Anyway, he said that he would gonna start uploading more not as a new year's resolution so instead of 4 he would upload 5 videos a year.
He collaborates with other TH-camrs.
Hanna Miller You should watch his collabs with Dodie! They're really amazing and so cool!
I performed Harry Potter in 99 seconds for a book report and passed! Thank you!
You're my new favourite person!
Mary Nauta so nobody realized that that was a thing
I'm not just fangirling over Jon because he's cute or funny or whatever; it's because he puts in all the hard work required to make his talent shine. His videos look so professional, and he does all of it, the writing, the arrangements, the editing, everything.

I have a hard core crush on him.
Who doesn't?!?!
i'll tell kai XD
+Mehroz Sohail ohhhhhhhhhh
Jenny DOKyungsoo we all do welcome to the club
Jenny DOKyungsoo hey EXO L fam 👋👋
This guy literally sounds 1000 times better LIVE and he alrdy sounds perfect in his original videos.
I DIDN'T KNOW THAT JON MADE A TED TALK
me too . i just discovered this
Rico-ian Banting Same omg
He's like perfection, funny and talented, not to mention good looking. I wish I could see him live
rIGHT OMG
I almost got to!!
Taranjot P I DID AND HE NOTICED OMG I DIED
Taranjot P noticed me* lol
YOU'RE SO LUCKY
This is a very interesting video, and a good talk, but the title is very misleading. This is about Jon's journey on TH-cam and telling a story, not Disney Princesses.
Jon is a disney princess.
theotherone Your reply has more likes then the actual comment 😂
Leo King I think it was titled that way to show that his success was derived from singing about the Disney princesses .
+Adri anna - Yeah, I understand that. My claim is that it's misleading.
but that's not what he said. He said he made youtube-famous because of Potter in 90 seconds. Not After Ever After.
When I was little my friends and I pretty much set Harry Potter in 99 seconds as the gold standard of Harry Potter fandom.
But he's wrong, not everyone could do what he does. He is creative, and funny and a really good singer and not everyone has all those qualities which makes him so special and which is why he deserves his fame. He works hard for it and he knows what he's doing so he shouldn't say "anyone could do it" because not everyone did do it. He did.
Jennifer Sarullo Also a very good business man who is white and good looking, so yeah He has an advantage
Lauren Maslin what does his race have to do with anything?
Meme Queen Unfortunately: too much.
Anyone can work just as hard. Get these awful ideas of laziness out of your head and value self-discipline. Your potential is unbounded.
Well certainly not everybody’s good at singing but you can still do it without the things with your own personal talents you just need to find them. It is all of hard hard work. Maybe easier for some than for others but everyone *can*
You're on TED!! You're on TED!!!!!!!!!
Ahhh, I love you so much ;) great talk!
*Potterheads Unite*
Yes!!!
Yes!!
DUMBLEDORES ARMY
Yeeeeeeeesssssssss! I am actually wearing my HP PJs right now!!!!😀😃😄 i wuv, wuv, wuv HP!
hello my people
we have rised
He must really, really get to know his songs, his live performances (compared to original recordings) are better than many professional singers, literally.
Vivian ikr! I love his singing voice! He's too talented!
That: Prince Ali part is just singing gold **_**
The Aladdin part is even more relevant now that a poll has been released showing many US congress members would support bombing Prince Aladdin's (fictional) home country of Agrabah... I wish I was joking!!
How many?
+KunamaElgar I think Aladdin takes place in either India or Turkey.. Agrabah sounds a lot like a former name of an Indian city, Aladdin rides an elephant in his parade (only Indian Royalty did that) and the Sultan's gear looks like it's from Turkey
+PrincessofEllabur Aladdin's story is from the book A Thousand and One Nights that is Arabian, I think.
Except that the oringal Aladdin story took place in China, not in a middle-eastern county. But in my head Disney's Aladdin takes place in either India (Prince Ali ride an elephant in a parade much like Indian royalty did), Jasmine's home looks very much like the Taj Mahal, the name of fictional country sounds a LOT like a former name for one of India's cities or Turkey (due to the term "Sultan")
source?
I love that he cut the after ever after video at "Prince aaaaaaaaaaaaa" since the next phrase come before he finish the "li" in Ali XD
Well. He told them the other half is not for middle-school-people, and right when the "li" in Ali comes, it says "a whore" at the same time..
Yeah because after that he says whore which isn't middle school age appropriate.
How Jon meets most of the criteria for my perfect guy:
Disney fan: check
Funny: check
Introvert: check
Musical: check
Really fucking hot as fuck: check
The same age as me: crap, I'm in High school.
Madison potterhead: check
I didn't expect Tyler Oakley to watch this type of video.
I love paint he should make one of snow white, merida, sleeping beauty, and Rapunzel !
Same here
My friends and I would belt After Ever After all the time in 7th grade, but we'd change the violent words in the Pocahontas bit to things like 'teacup' and 'grape'.
How does that even work?
Looking back on it, I have no idea.
I WAS THERE! My dad spoke at that event when I was younger and when we got back home, I bragged about my dad speaking at the same TedX event as Jon Cozart.
you are a very smart talented boy who chased his dreams and was rewarded with the job of your dreams
omg how did I find this 3 years later???
ikr! thts what i said
same
Omg he did a Ted talk!?
yes, this is it
Jon cozart is so talented wish he would come to my school I think it would open doors for me and my friends he's so inspiring
i can stil do the entire 99 seconds song like 6 years later. i think it's the first video that i watched on youtube, besides potter puppet pals
jordan pennell
SAME
And oh yes! Lest I forget to mention, Jon, you are truly a treasure.
"thank you guys so much for letting me COME OUT"
DID HE JUST
WHAt
I honestly think you are amazing. You put so much heart into it and the time it must take is massive! You deserve every fan you have!
I love how proud he is, it shows he knows this is big, I'm super proud of him!
He's so adorable
You are such a beautiful person. Your message is so simple, yet so powerful and I love watching your success. Please never stop being so creative, love you so much!!
I wish he would have performed the other half or After Ever After. I think what's "middle school appropriate" has changed 😂😂
Does anyone know where his child hitler video is!?
Yes type up hitters wrath
Im loving this.. seriously.. sometimes you learn more stuff from people like him than you can learn from an actual professor..
this guy seems so fresh, like nothing is ever going to take him down
Just googled that WW2 video... it's so amazing
Reasons I love this man: THIS! He's so authentic.
He's much more confident when he's singing but still very confident gg to him
On TH-cam watching a video of a TH-camr watching himself and singing along with his own video. That’s about as meta as it gets.
Ah! I love him! Why have I not seen this sooner? He's great.
"Everybody has a voice."
Ariel: Yeah, sure.
i looove his little dance it make me smile like i don't know everything
I can't believe he's 20...... Too bad I'm younger than him...
22 😂☺️
Ikr. Sucks to be not legal age. 😭 he's a sweetheart too which sucks MORE. He seems really faithful and kind. MAN HOW COME IM 14 😞
Shut up I know I'm too young but everyone gets crushes. 😂😭
+AnesteyGames I was ten at first and now 11 but 😘😚😙😗😻😍😽💋❤💙💚💛💜💓💕💖💗💘💝💞💟
I think he is probably a homosexual as well, so... Too bad ladies!
Omg I love you Jon! I can't believe this!!!
Oh my GOD I love this dude

This dude is brilliant. End of story.
His little dance in the beginning of jasmines made my day

Adorable Jon!
Can be all talk about his teeth. Please.
They're perfect?
eye blinding?
They are perfect 😁
He doesn't do vlogging, but he has been a guest on other people's vlogs. When he throws his head back to laugh his teeth are amazing.
TRiG.
Thank so very much for this info. That ought teach us that not everyone can have a happy ending.
They changed “Chinamen” to “Chinese men” - GOOD.
