Dude, you should definitely voice a Disney villain, scratch that, there should be a Disney movie with him and Caleb Hyles, Hyles being the hero and Jonathan being the villain
I love that idea and his covers (especially when he does Metal and goes full Disney villain). I'd picture him as a cross between Bill Cipher (Gravity Falls) and Dr. Facilier with the young charm of Hans (Frozen), depth and cruelty of Frollo, and the ego and tyranny of Scar. He'd be a young Disney Villain in his 20s and psychotically evil. He'd probably have a badass and threatening name like 'Azrael'. Also Johnathon Young should cover either "Oogie Boogie Song" (Nightmare Before Christmas), "Friends on the Other Side" (Princess and the Frog), and/or "Tonight We Strike" (The Lion Guard).
You're damn skippy! His hair reminded me of Matt Barlow back in the day when he was the lead singer of Iced Earth...nothing like a man with one or both of the following: Long flowing locks upon his dome piece or long flowing locks hanging from his chin. ^_^
AnxiousAndAnnoyed >>>>live action version of something completely animated with no humanoid characters.... So which were you hoping for? Creepy animatronics or anthropomorphic costumes?
xLttPx The hell you talking about? It is metal. Do you not hear the screams? The evilness behind his voice? The great breakdowns of the guitar? The leads? Unless you're comparing this to Metallica or something like that. Then you are outdated
Pyro Blast You may have misunderstood. I do think Metallica is pretty awesome. No question. But to set Metallica as the standard for what metal is, and say that anything that isn't like Metallica isn't metal, is outdated information. Metallica is classic metal. Are they good? Yes. Are they the pioneers for most metal bands? Yes. My comment wasn't to degrade Metallica. It was to point out that this guy's logic is incorrect.
Same.I love this song so much and Jonathan does it so amazingly. And you can't compare this to a popular metal band. This is metal. I listen to plenty of metal. Whoever says it isn't doesn't know what they are talking about or they are salty that this guy is really good.
Original version: A cartoon lion telling his conquest plans to a pack of stupid and crazy Hienas Jonathan's version: An evil king telling his world domination plans to a massive army of insane carnivore demons, trying to convince them to give him devilish powers and their help as soldiers (The king is a human but he made a ritual to summon the Hell's army)
@@karimsawirs8372 yeah. Scars entire thing in the movie was having everything he says have multiple meanings. Easy to tell his intent if you can read between lines and his body language, but done in a way that makes him able to argue innocence on technicality of wording
Though yes that would be A M A Z I N G his voice could be taken from anyone to hear again for any new songs he'd want to cover since Disney has the ability to do that. For example the lady who sang as snow white (sorry i don't remember her name ;-;) they didn't allow her to let anyone else hear her beautiful voice due to it being so unique (which it honestly was-), BUT then again that was a long time ago they might not this time though i wouldn't take the risk to lose this boi qwq. Also disney has gone well- a bit soft let's say that- they wouldn't allow this magnificent devil to strike fear in the hearts of viewers.(too much? Nah -3- seriously love this guys voice tho)
seriously, Jonathan Young, Caleb Hyles, Peter Hollens, Nick Pitera, and Alex Gronlund (Alex G) would make the perfect group for a new disney movie... a REAL disney movie, a disney movie that brings back what Disney needs to be.
how can this guy be so pretty, scary, talented, hot and creepy at the same time. i've been looking for a good scar cover for a while and this one is just breathtaking....
My mom had that look on her face when i was showing my friend this song, I simply looked at her smirked, simply said "what?, its disney music" and started giggling the look on her face was so funny!
Firewolf Well, I'd say more Claude Frollo holds the Title, but if you consider that Scar is basically the only villain who had what he wanted, you could say he is ultimate.
Fun fact in the original song Jeremy Irons sang most of the song but developed voice problems before he could finish. So Jim Cummings sang the part from "Coup of the Century" onward having apparently having recorded his own vocals of the song. Cummings managed to mimic Irons voice so well that most people don't notice the switch.
this was uploaded 4 years ago, depending on how old they were in the video at the time of recording they're most likely unfortunately gone as guinea pigs have a life span of 4-8 years. and since you mentioned hamster they have an even short life span of 2-3 years.

@@codybuckler6027 Yep. Jeremy Irons was the voice of Scar, and Jim Cummings did such a great job taking over for the rest of the song that I didn't even know it was him until a couple decades later.

Srsly Jonathan Young how do we know ur not one of the seven princes of hell or something? This version is way too awesomely badass for a human to make!
Fun fact: after the part where scar says “just listen to teacher” it actually switches from Jeremy Irons to Jim Cummings because Irons blew out his voice during the recording. And if you don’t know who Jim Cummings is, he plays Ed the Hyena in that movie.
I am speechless at the end of this. I love the way this makes you realize how hardcore and well-read, and DARK this character and this story and this WRITING and this casting was (I love Jeremy irons and didn’t know he was the voice of scar in this movie. I was little when The Lion King came out. This song is actually terrifying. But weirdly, I don’t remember being particularly disturbed by it then. Anyway- your rendition of it was really genius and well-done. I can’t wait to play more of your songs. Thanks for sharing.
I gotta say...some music you can just put on in the background while you work. But I have to actively LISTEN to Jonathan's music. If I miss a part, I rewind. That is a true gift of captivating audiences
This is probably my new favorite cover of this song, your voice just fits so well with this song keep it up! (I'm new to this channel and I'm already loving it!)
@Julius Nicholson are you seriously in every comment chain insulting Jon just because your mommy didn't give you enough hugs? What are you even really salty about? I really want to know.
@Sortof Autonomous His attempted accent? What? I don't think he was trying to imitate the voice first of all, since from what I've seen of Johnathan young he tends to not really shoot for imitation anyway, but to bring his own voice and style. However, even if he was trying to imitate, he was imitating the voice of an animated character, just because Jeremy Irons was from the UK doesn't mean that no one from the UK can ever do anything with the character.
i never thought anything would be better than the original. but then I found your Poor Unfornate Soul cover and THEN I saw this and I knew your voice would be stunningly perfect. i love this so much u have have no idea
LMAO, SO, I ACCIDENTALLY CLICKED YOUR CHANNEL. I PRESSED THE BACK BUTTON, AND TH-cam GLITCHES AND STARTS PLAYING YOUR INTRO VIDEO WHERE BE PREPARED SHOULD BE
Ok this is just great! You actually seem slightly unhinged in the preamble. It’s not easy to give someone a feel like that and then go into such an amazing song cover. Great job!
Both Jonathan and Caleb have done Be Prepared twice. Fun trivia? Jonathans style went from refined to feral(animated to live) Whereas Caleb went in reverse. From feral to refined.
*The pain of not being able to laugh on cue.* *Watches this video.* The talent is hard to learn, but it leaves a beautiful mark on thy's ears, travelling to the skull, resonating down into the rest. The laughing is not all, the words roll down, and the tone sways like a tree in a hurricane, it is truly amazing. *WHY IS THERE NO ONE HOUR LOOOOP!?*
Well Jonathan, I must say that I "wasn't prepared" for a music video this awesome! This one made my heart stop, especially since it's my favorite song of my favorite Disney Movie! Long live the King: Jonathan Young!
***** May I make a request? Have you heard of the song "In the Dark of The Night" from the movie Anastasia? I know it isn't Disney, but it is still a kickass villain song, so I am sure you can make a masterpiece if you do a cover of it! What do you think?
Okay so no one's gonna talk about the adorable guinea pig at the end? No one? It's gotta be me? Okay then OMG SO ADORABLE SO FLUFFYYY!!! FLUFFY FLUFFY-KINS THE SQUEEK THE SQUEEL "I KNOW THAT NOISE, I KNOW THAT MEANS YOU'RE POOPING! I'M PUTTING YOU BACK" and also, yes, this song was Epic!

David Timmer That would be the most grand mind-blowing legitimate-Aw screw it. No word can explain such awesomeness.
Afinio I am now writing the script, currently working out some kinks in the character development.
Only Disney movie where the villain and hero join up and start a band
Jase Elias it's currently more of a battle of the bands at the moment
It's never complete without a majestically long haired guitarist with a fan blowing in front of him as he plays
My thoughts exactly.
You're damn skippy! His hair reminded me of Matt Barlow back in the day when he was the lead singer of Iced Earth...nothing like a man with one or both of the following: Long flowing locks upon his dome piece or long flowing locks hanging from his chin. ^_^
Nondescript Humanoid I actually got to meet Matt Barlow back in 2008. It was awesome
Shredding is sweaty work so fans are a must!😉 (I'm only half kidding...)
Why did the hyenas not participate in this version? *SIMPLE:* They were wide-eyed, cowering in the corner of the cave.
As they should
They were wide eyed pissin themselves in terror wondering what the hell they got themselves into
@Mayo Lane Have a great day
The lights were not all on upstairs for them
You should voice scar in the live action version of lion king. You have the perfect scar voice. Disney needs to see this masterpiece.
AnxiousAndAnnoyed >>>>live action version of something completely animated with no humanoid characters.... So which were you hoping for? Creepy animatronics or anthropomorphic costumes?

That works too...
Exactly thoughts!
This literally made the hairs on my neck stand up. Well done kind sir! Combining my love for Disney and Metal into one... You have become my hero!

Jonathan is secretly a disney villain.
Nikki Yarnell he’s not hiding it so well
If only. Minus the secretly partn of course.
He is not simply one. Hell, he is all of them.
He's really good at it 😂
Still hot. 😏Hero or villain. Especially villain.
Original version: A cartoon lion telling his conquest plans to a pack of stupid and crazy Hienas
Jonathan's version: An evil king telling his world domination plans to a massive army of insane carnivore demons, trying to convince them to give him devilish powers and their help as soldiers (The king is a human but he made a ritual to summon the Hell's army)

"... a matter of pride~"
Did- did Scar just make a pun?
I never noticed that! That is awesome!!
Yes, yes he did. All hail king scar
Yup. Double meaning.
he was making puns all through the movie, "as far as brains in the family go, I got the lion's share"
@@karimsawirs8372 yeah. Scars entire thing in the movie was having everything he says have multiple meanings. Easy to tell his intent if you can read between lines and his body language, but done in a way that makes him able to argue innocence on technicality of wording
how long intill disney lets him be a villian in a movie?
Antistaticc omg i swear that would be so awesome!
Isnt there a petition to have him play a Disney villain?
That...would just be.....AMAZING

And if they want to do the surprise villain again, then at least make Caleb and Jonathan switch it on them, having Jonathan as the surprise hero

Scar with this voiceover would have been creepy as fuck.
But it would have been more awesome though :p
Yeah, that's what I meant, basically
csaadelbo in
It wouldn't change Scar that much though. He already holds the title as the ULTIMATE Disney villain.
Firewolf Well, I'd say more Claude Frollo holds the Title, but if you consider that Scar is basically the only villain who had what he wanted, you could say he is ultimate.
As someone who had heavy admiration for scars voice and mannerisms as a child...

He's much, much more than a Disney villain. He strikes fear into the hearts of the strong and weak alike

These villain covers are creepy in the most amazing ways!

Frollo's Hellfire from Hunchback of Notre Dame!
Oh hell yes!
OMG, yes!
+Omarr Guerrero He did that. Look at his second Disney album
+Omarr Guerrero My life needs this!
The awesomeness of that would be too much for the internet to handle.
Scar was pretty bad to begin with, but if he had that voice,
I'd. Be. *Terrified*
2:23 I was NOT PREPARED
I wasn't ready for him to go that heavy either! But his screaming is pretty good! He needs to scream more often.
No one was😨
Damn caught me off my block. That part was so badass tho
Yes! Great breakdown!
I need more heavy symphonic breakdowns in my life.
Fun fact: after the part where scar says “just listen to teacher” it actually switches from Jeremy Irons to Jim Cummings because Irons blew out his voice during the recording. And if you don’t know who Jim Cummings is, he plays Ed the Hyena in that movie.
He also plays, Pooh, tigger, and Darkwing Duck
It was after "You won't get a sniff without me" that Jeremy Irons lost his voice.
I'm trying to imagine Disney hiring Jonathan for official covers for live-action remakes of classic Disney musicals.
Disney goes horror-adventure?
I want that. I want that bad.
i want that too!
UnfamusOfficial that would be amazing
No one can make those "ahhh"'s at the beginning sound so badass
Jonathan Young, you should do Lion King 2's "That's my lullaby"
I second this... That would kick so much ass!
Danoh Szpak Yes!!!
OMG!!! I'm glad I'm not the only one That wants this!!!
I was gonna ask the same thing... haha you beat me to it

I like this one better. The new one was just extra
Definitely this one.
Huntsman93 I somewhat agree, but I feel like the breakdown and ending Halford-like scream in this one are more metal.
Sameeeee but i think it’s this one
I think I like this one better. The other one is heavier, and I like that, but the vocals are clearer in this one. The other one is great too, though.
He makes for a pretty convincing Disney villain. I'm envious of that charisma.
Just 13 seconds in and that opening vocals gave me CHILLS!
Also, you sound so much like Scar in this it's scary. I LOVE IT!
I gotta say...some music you can just put on in the background while you work. But I have to actively LISTEN to Jonathan's music. If I miss a part, I rewind. That is a true gift of captivating audiences
About half way through the song, i got worried that Morgoth had returned.
The Dark One has yet to return thankfully.
My lord has not been seen for ages.
LOTR fans FTW! You my friend just doubled your internet points
Morgoth remains imprisoned, may Manwe be prepared for his return.
who's morgoth?
This is probably my new favorite cover of this song, your voice just fits so well with this song keep it up! (I'm new to this channel and I'm already loving it!)
Yea, I might like this better than Tay Zonday's. Though Tay's is more of a standard cover, but his voice is so amazing for this song.
Old Jonathan Young just hits different 🖤
Zira's lullaby from Lion King 2 might just make a great metal cover. And you already make a great Disney villain ;) hint hint nudge nudge
Omgosh Yes!
Disliked that movie but that song was dope. It deserves a Metal Cover so bad by this guy :D

I don't think he was trying to imitate the voice first of all, since from what I've seen of Johnathan young he tends to not really shoot for imitation anyway, but to bring his own voice and style. However, even if he was trying to imitate, he was imitating the voice of an animated character, just because Jeremy Irons was from the UK doesn't mean that no one from the UK can ever do anything with the character.
This is my favorite Disney song. The part in the movie is awesome... so many symbols!! And this cover is just so perfect!!!
*sings metal*
I WILL BE KING
BE PREPARED
-----------
Afterward...
Cuddles cute guinepig
yes ^^
SUCH a good breakdown!
@@quixilver6177 Is that a jojo reference?
i never thought anything would be better than the original. but then I found your Poor Unfornate Soul cover and THEN I saw this and I knew your voice would be stunningly perfect. i love this so much u have have no idea
This is my childhood and my adulthood wrapped up in a song...made amazing. I came...64 times
Better than that remake.
Underrated comment
Remak just says Be perpetuated
Twilight was a better remake than the remake.....
Lol true
What do you mean? You don't want to here a CG lion who can't emote recite the 30 seconds of the song instead of singing it
so this is what Lucifer sounds like when he sings.. huh .
Jacob Willis Well Lucifer IS an Angel
WAS xD
Rachael Dicus That was the point a Angelic voice but dark and terrifying .
Akari Its complex an Angel is both a species and a allegiance. Demons are still of the race but the allegiances changed .
Lucifer is STILL an angel. despite having fallen from grace.
I was smiling through the whole song, then I saw the guinea pig... that was all my heart could take
This man needs to teach a class I’m now he gets his voice SO DAMN DEEP. TEACH ME YOUR WAYS OH WISE ONE!!!!!
We need a metal cover of When You're Evil. Seriously, I can't find one... Please Jon?
+Legion Darkness-Bobulus By Voltaire? (Not the cool French one.)
Simon Clone Yeah :3
LMAO, SO, I ACCIDENTALLY CLICKED YOUR CHANNEL. I PRESSED THE BACK BUTTON, AND TH-cam GLITCHES AND STARTS PLAYING YOUR INTRO VIDEO WHERE BE PREPARED SHOULD BE
Simon Clone lol. Yea... My channels old and dead.
YESSSSS
Dude... you.. are..BRUTALLY... HOOOTTTT!!!
Frightend? : a little
Aroused? : more than a little
In love with my new king?: is that even a question
Hyped near the limit of my heartsability? : yes
Hotel?
Trivago
All true, and I'm a straight dude. XD
How has he not been casted as a Disney villain?
Nevermind. He has a guinea pig. This is precious...
Scary, loud, and dark.... I LOVE it! If you ever become Scar on Broadway, I won't be surprised.
I love how theatrically you sing! you can really feel the emotions, you obviously really enjoy what you do!
Jonathan you were so right when you said that you were the Disney Prince of Darkness. This just proves that!
Ok this is just great! You actually seem slightly unhinged in the preamble. It’s not easy to give someone a feel like that and then go into such an amazing song cover. Great job!
I just listened to both of Jonathan's versions of this song at the same time.
These villain covers are creepy in the most amazing ways! 10/10! This is awesome!
if he doesn't scare you, no evil thing will...
lilly imaginator nothing scares me, i love his voice tho XD
Yeah, he need to do Cruella De Vil
If he doesn't.... SCAR you?! Hahahah..hahahhhh..... ha
Luna Gamer well...I wasn't *PREPARED* for that! 😝😝😝😂😂😂😅😅😅
Guess I'm fearless then?
I didn't know Disney Villain ASMR was a thing...
LMAO
xD
COuld you do The Plagues from Prince of Egypt
With Calen Hyles!
oh my god yes
oh my god yes
Do the plagues please!!
HOLY CRAP YES
Are you on team hero or team villain?
I can't choose. Both are so cool..
Stick with us villains... you'll never go hungry again
Veroian.
Both Jonathan and Caleb have done Be Prepared twice.
Fun trivia?
Jonathans style went from refined to feral(animated to live)
Whereas Caleb went in reverse. From feral to refined.
Fucking love the hand movements, don't even know why but I love it.
This solo guitar just complete perfecty this cover gosh
Thanks!
Drew Hurst
Indeed. Nice job, Drew.
And it's really nice to see artists staying close to their fans ahahah ♥
***** We're happy to be able to share this stuff and interact with the people who dig it!

Drum Hurts is better.
That deep voice in the intro. Sing me a lullaby
Could you cover 'My Lullaby' fron Lion King 2? That would be awesome if you did.
oh yess that would rule!
Starfire1408 YASSS
YES!
Starfire1408 YES
Totally.
Your voice when you sing this reminds me of Tim Curry in Rocky Horror, think you could do some of those songs?
*The pain of not being able to laugh on cue.*
*Watches this video.*
The talent is hard to learn, but it leaves a beautiful mark on thy's ears, travelling to the skull, resonating down into the rest.
The laughing is not all,
the words roll down, and the tone sways like a tree in a hurricane,
it is truly amazing.
*WHY IS THERE NO ONE HOUR LOOOOP!?*
was that a guinea pig? That is fudging adorable, i loved this video!!!
My favorite. I want to hear this every morning. ❤
Found this out of the blue and I swear I'm in love😍 that voice omdz
Well Jonathan, I must say that I "wasn't prepared" for a music video this awesome! This one made my heart stop, especially since it's my favorite song of my favorite Disney Movie! Long live the King: Jonathan Young!
Seriously. His covers are bomb :)
***** May I make a request? Have you heard of the song "In the Dark of The Night" from the movie Anastasia? I know it isn't Disney, but it is still a kickass villain song, so I am sure you can make a masterpiece if you do a cover of it! What do you think?
Hearing these songs in this style really shows just how great the songwriters really were.
Okay so no one's gonna talk about the adorable guinea pig at the end? No one? It's gotta be me?
Okay then
OMG SO ADORABLE SO FLUFFYYY!!!
FLUFFY FLUFFY-KINS
THE SQUEEK THE SQUEEL
"I KNOW THAT NOISE, I KNOW THAT MEANS YOU'RE POOPING! I'M PUTTING YOU BACK"
and also, yes, this song was Epic!
This cover is so perfect, I want it to be the soundtrack to my coronation.
If they ever did a live action version of the lion king he should voice scar
Indeed. And it might be on the way anyway. The Jungle Book, Beauty and the Beast next year. Who knows :)
it is on the way. :)
Alibeats wouldn't be the first time he played an animal with claws who can't be tamed, this time, evil bad guy who won't annoy me like gaston.
that will be in 2019
(I don't speak english)
javiDLR6 are you serious? Hugh jackman is one day going to voice scar in a live adaption of the lion king?
I never thought this song could actually be good until you did the cover. This is absolutely amazing!
It was always good. He just made it better
By the gods, I wouldn't have realized that was Jonathan had it not been the voice. The glow up 💜
Can we just redub The Lion King with Jonathan Young as Scar? That would be epic, just like this cover! So good!
"I know that sound I know that means you're pooping. I'm putting you back."
The way he said it really made me laugh lmao
Could you do a cover 'Friends on the Other Side' from Princess and the Frog?
Rachel Arabelle yessss
Rachel Arabelle he did
Honestly he’s the only guy I’ve seen who rocks a suit with a beanie, well done 👏
Anyway, 2019 anyone?
Just watched his new cover of this and must say I love them both!
*If the Pride Lands exist, you guys deserve the lion's share and then some. Well done.*
