Jonathan, you are awesome. Some of your older covers I can still listen to over and over and over and over again. I hope you one day do a cover of Boston's Foreplay/Long Time where you go nuts on the keyboard in the beginning like Boston does during their live shows. Do it with Caleb, Richaad and Family Jules if you want or don't want. I just want to hear the epic maestro cover one of the all time best songs in an epic way that reminds mw of the live shows so I can close my eyes and let my chromestisia loose and then enjoy the song.
If you guys are only in this channel for anime MOSTLY then I encourage unsubbing from this one because then there aren't subscribers that don't watch the videos and thus they get recommended to more people that do like this content.
Personally I blame UA-cam's analytics forcing you to pigeonhole content like this but I'm still happy you're making another channel. I'll check it out.
Several people I watch have been talking back end stuff and yeah. There's some that's understandable, but they do manipulation too. The Billboard and Rotten tomatoes people do it, as well. It's just sometimes, something goes so mega viral, it overrides it.
I don't even get where that notion comes from. Jon's been uploading almost only original songs or metal stuff for a long while and a lot of that gets millions of views.
@@yoursonisold8743 Not really if you look at his numbers. The last video to break 1 mil views, that wasn't an original song, was Children of the Night 10 months ago beyond that it fluxuates between 150k and 600k views. Unfortunately what he said is right though he worded it a little weirdly. Basically the way UA-cam works is that if a certain percentage, like 80% or higher, of your subscribers aren't watching ALL of your videos, then you are actively punished for it. Basically UA-cam says well not enough people were watching this so we'll stop showing his videos to people until eventually just barely anyone can find your videos. And don't get me wrong is is an awful total BS system that I can almost confidently say every creator hates, but unfortunately those are the rules if we want to play the game. Like he said UA-cam doesn't want Variety it wants you to be really good at one thing and focus people's attention by watching every single video.
You didn't make a mistake, you experimented, and you learned from it. I will be subbing to every channel you do for the music. Lots of music. No complaints.
I've already gone and subscribed to your anime music channel but I just want to say that your One Punch Man cover and your Tokyo Ghoul covers are some of my favorite things on the internet.
Yep as terrible as it may sound I actually prefer his covers to the original. Mainly because I speak English but it should be pointed out how he does a really good job translating not just words but also into a way that doesn't sound weird to English speakers.
Yeah, anime music may get a stigma, but it's just music that can be as good or bad as any other music. Some seriously amazing composers have made music for anime and created masterpieces that transcend the medium or the language barrier. Jon's covers show off some of that brilliance in a more digestable way to some people.
I don't think the One Punch Man S1 intro cover will ever be bested in terms of anime music covers. And I love anime music covers. It's a downward spiral from now on! :D
Even though I'm not a fan of anime, I still love your songs because they are so great to listen to. I also love your pirate songs, your viking songs, your Disney songs and pop covers. Basically everything you put out is fun to listen to and done so well. Sucks that the algorithm can't handle that, but I'm looking forward to your twitch streams!
Hey Jonathon, don't worry, your original stuff is getting really good. You are becoming one of the best artists around. Going to be time for you to start touring soon, you are a great artist.
I understand this move. Unfortunately, UA-cam is not favorable to channels that don’t have a focus but that just sucks because I came to this channel because of an anime song then branched out and explored the other types of songs and really liked them but that’s something you can only really get with a variety channel. If all you listen to (watch) are anime songs then that’s all the algorithm ever recommends and you never get the chance to branch out and discover new things. This is really just another “UA-cam’s algorithm sucks so I need to change to not get lost” sort of thing. Good luck with the new channel I wish you the best.
Your Breaking the Habit was not only beautifully done, but full of heart and I have yet to hear anything else as beautiful as that. I don’t see anything wrong with how you’re doing your channel, but I would truly love to hear more of those kinds of covers honestly. Totally reimagined stuff is amazing
Makes sense man. Do whatever you have to do to make sure your channel stays alive. Anything it takes to make sure that as many people as possible see and like your music, because it's tragic to miss out on any of it, anime, viking, or whatever.
I still listen to Children of The Night on repeat! I liked the fact that you were a variety channel. It was always fun to see what you would post next. So, if you think this is the best option, then I am gonna support it!! I can't wait to order that new album and catch a stream!
I think this will be a good change, not because the anime covers are bad (theyre actually fantastic), but because i feel like having an anime specific channel will reach a more targeted audience than a variety channel would
Oh, thank goodness you told me, I almost cried and peed on the floor. That could've been bad. Jokes aside, it's kinda frustrating that UA-cam does this to variety channels- I get why the algorithm does it, but it's unfortunate that you can't just post the music/content you want to where you want to. But it seems you've got a pretty good plan in place. Very excited for the new album!
That makes me glad you're not completely stopping. Me and my niece love listening to your Disney and anime cover on the way to school in the mornings. Her favorite is Poor Unfortunate Souls and Starship Velociraptor.
It's great to hear you won't stop making anime openings, you have been my NR 1 for years regarding covers (you have a very unique style)! Also very exited for the new album, since I was surprised how good Starship Velociraptor was!
This makes sense to me. I obviously can't speak for anyone else, but for me personally, I get really into a specific subject and hyper focus on it. So specializaed channels definitely do better with people like me. I found you during a Disney music binge, then stuck around for the other covers for awhile, then came back to the original music. In the past several months, I've been hyperfocused on classical music. So yeah, I haven't been super actively watching here for a bit.
I think you're doing the right thing with it! I'm not really a big anime fan myself, so I didn't click on your anime music videos because I just don't connect with them. Still, it's important that you have a way to post your anime music and reach the right people with it!
I personally enjoy almost every genre of music so I love your channel! But I also understand and respect that having different channels for different kinds of music will ultimately help you out! Can't wait for your new album!
Say less, didn't take more than 30 second for me to sub to the new channel! Sticking around as always, love your covers, your work, and your humor as always!
Your album was fantastic, I'm glad you did anime covers because I found you via the one punch man OP, but I genuinely think you're a talented and versatile artist. Mad props to you and all the people who work with you, rock on.
So hyped for your new album! Starship Velociraptor is a permanent part of my 8 hour playlist for when I’m driving up and down from London to U.K! Also think it’s a good idea to start separating channels! Hope the algorithm starts being more friendly! Also really hope Caleb is your screensaver permanently!
Im loving everything. My style is diverse and your music covers my many little feelings and the song types i need in the moment to make my day all the more electrified. I subbed to the other channel just earlier and am already rocking out over there. Love your stuff, sir ❤
Dude I might not get hyped for every song but your making such a variety of different music and doing an epic job of it that when I see "Jonathan Young" I know I gotta check it out.
Ive always liked all of your music and its kinda sad to see it separated but its cool if it helps you out and as long as we still get them songs im happy.
I started loving your covers as a content creator during the pandemic. I used with credit to you a good amount of the general covers you did, the one that always comes to mind is you're gonna go far kid with Lauren. Now I'm working on movies and the Celine dion heart will go on cover would be the most perfect theme for the end of movie 1 in this trilogy. I plan to reach out to you in the future to use that. You're amazing, don't stop doing what you're doing. I'm so proud of you to watch you grow and enjoy this journey with you. Keep destroying it everything you do is fantastic.
So much of your stuff is amazing, Jonathan, though I get why you may need channels for each genre you work with. YT's a mess, but I'm keeping tabs regardless over here because you genuinely ROCK! Much love, my guy! 🥰
Jonathan ive listened to ALLLL Of your songs for years, it means miles for me that youre not cancelling all your awesome content, you put so much effort into these, and i just; dang i wanna communicate how just.. How..Youre the DAWG, MAN🎉❤
I vibe with this idea - largely because the anime content moving to another channel can make way for your original songs, above anything else. As amazing as your covers always are, your original content deserves so much more attention because it's just downright fantastic. You ooze quality and talent, good sir.
My man Jonathan you scared me so much. I love your covers no matter what you do because how you make each song your own. I am the group that hears anything if I like it. So keep going because your music makes me feel better when I am tired or overwhelmed with my classes, from high school to now in my masters degree.
Imma tell you now a lot of youtubers I watch have tried this and it has never worked once, it usually ends up just splitting your fanbase further, absolutely destroying your upload rate and the new channel getting silently forgotten... BUT HEY here's hopping you're the exception!
@@camgoodkicks TheFamousFilms, CaptainSparklez, TryHardNinja, those are the three that I remember off the top of my head and it's because they still upload (THN not nearly as often as before mostly just reuploads old vids) despite their failure, but that's the thing, most of the time whenever a youtuber fails the channel splitting gambit they just disappear without any warning and then get forgotten.
I subscribed to the new channel! And can't wait to continue seeing your content, wherever it is! You make great music, in all forms and genres. New album, yes!!!
Hope it works out for you. I'm one of those that can handle a variety. Pity that to do well on youtube you need to do something like this. I've seen several channels do what you are doing. Beau of the Fifth Column (US news / Ukraine-Russia news) did that a few years ago and saw his main channel skyrocket. Initially he had short content mixed with long. The long content was spun off to the second channel, then his main channel surged in popularity.
Definitely subscribing to the new channel, but more importantly, I am SUPER looking forward to the new album!! Your original music is always incredible and I can't wait to hear more of it!
I only found you because of your anime covers and making a channel specifically focused around anime music is a great idea if everyone else doesn't really care for it. Super hyped about the jjk opening 😁
The algorithm likes consistency and dislikes diversity. That's why things are going up and down. I'm subbed for the Starship Velociraptor and the 10000 lightyears videos. They're absolutely amazing.
I got into your channel awhile back because you were variety. I loved it! And I watch anime stuff or disney, many covers, loved metal music more than half of my life, so youtube needs to CHILL. I'd get recommended a variety of stuff. I'm so glad you're not quit!! I love your music and acting in your vids.
you start with variety until you narrow down what niche does best for you. But you still need to be YOU, so I'm really glad you're starting a new channel instead of just stopping what you love.
Honestly the algorithm is hard to follow a lot so glad you seem to be figuring out or at least down to experiment and figure it out, can’t wait to see what you have in store for the album and the new channel! Though I swear the name sounds familiar as well.
Do what you must, though I really hate that the algorithm requires you to do such overly specialized channels. To me, music is music; so long as it all comes from the same creator, it's all probably as good as the rest. If only discovered one of your channels after you split, the other channels would probably fly over my head, and I'd miss out on a lot of content from you.
It honestly warms my heart seing the progress you have made during last years. I feel that it is like your dream come true and its so satisfactory. Keep it up Jonathan! You are doing great job
I'm here for all of it. I love anime, I love Disney, I love your regular music covers and even your originals. It sucks that things are the way they are. I subbed to your new channel. Can't wait for more.
I was about to say lol love your chainsaw man cover! Been listening to you since your beanie, baby faced days and youve grown so much as an artist. Keep killing it Jonathan!
Started following you after HEEEEEEEEEERRROOOOOOOOOOO and stayed for everything ya do. SIlly stuff serious YOUR DEPTH , seriously unravel cover was WOW. Me hopes ya can work the ever changing oddity of the algorithm. Already subcribed to the new 1 with 22.2k others:)
I'm a terrible fan. I wait till everything is on Spotify and listen till my ears bleed then listen some more. Tbh you, Caleb, and Annapantsu I listen to the most 🤷🏼♀️😁
I thought you stopped posting on UA-cam because I hadn’t received any new videos from you on my recommendations, until I just searched you and just saw everything that has been added to Spotify is up here. Stupid UA-cam and stupid algorithms. Love everything you post you are hands down one of my favorite musicians. Period. Just subscribed to the new channel and hit that bell!!!!
Honestly as a metal fan and an anime viewer i love your takes on anime openings like your take on Unravel which still hangs on my playlist ever then even so i still await smth more epic from ya m8 what i mean is you hv a gr8 false cord technique where u can instantly slide in those nearly heavenly cleans like in Unravel ,anyway whatever what ya do im gonna sub both channels, Stay strong and hv a nice yt life on new channel (subbed already)
Ok, why is there a picture of Caleb next to bottles of milk on Jonathan's monitor? Why is it just that on the monitor? There's not even other tabs open, it's just that picture.
YES NEW ALBUM!!!! Starship Velociraptor is by far my most listened to album since its release. Cannot wait for new original music. This is what the cover grind has been for and I hope it pays off
I’m scrolling through your past videos and damn I noticed the varying degree of views. Some hitting only 100k, while those beside it hit 2mill. Been around since your cover of opm and your channels has to be one of my favorite music channel.
Yeah that checks out, you built a channel around variety but anime did better and so when you dont do anime the algorithm burries you. That's all channels that upload any kind of anime content and it's perfectly reasonable.
I blame the UA-cam algorithm, but I will most certainly be subscribing to the new channel! I absolutely love your content! Your One Piece English Cover was truly phenomenal, and I listen to it regularly. (The live action is AMAZING btw
Great idea - seems like a win for everybody. I have no interest in anime music but a lot of people do, and I'm sure many of them have no interest in your rock/pop covers that I'm into. This way we both get what we like while never being bothered by the other
I think it's a great idea, youtube works in a weird way. I hope this works for you because you're great and it's unfair that the channel suffers because some people (like me, no anime for me sorrry) have narrow tastes in music. I'll stay here for the metal and pirates and Disney covers and super great collaborations with Colm
Seems like a smart move to me. Happy to follow your new channel. I love listening to your music and I hope to listen for years to come. Wishing you luck, sir.
Honestly none of you music cover is a mistake i enjoyed them all and seeing you have so much fun making them with everyone that what i like about your music cover and will definitely keep listening to all your old and new stuff.
For me I’m not a big anime fan to begin with so making a channel for only anime covers I think is a great idea for everyone who loves that stuff while me and others continue to enjoy covers of songs from animated movies especially ones that are forgotten or ones that don’t get much attention, and of course more ORIGINALS.
ive been following you for ages now, and my personal favourite of the music youve released is still to this day, Starship Velociraptor, I cant wait to listen to your new album
Personally what I liked about this channel is precisely its diversity. When I received a notification I never knew what to expect. But I imagine that not everyone thinks like me. Will there still sometimes be video clips of your Anime covers on Villainous or just video lyrics?
Good question! I've found that anime fans typically don't care about seeing my actual face on video, and are usually much more concerned about seeing the characters in the thumbnail with lyrics in the video, so unfortunately I'll be doing a lot less performing on camera for anime stuff.
@@jonathanymusic Oh? Personally, I think that if your covers of Unravel (Tokyo Ghoul), One Punch Man or Attack on Titan have garnered so many views, it's on the contrary because we can see all the energy you put into them on camera. Seeing someone who looks so passionate about singing my favorite opening makes me want to watch it multiple times and share it. If we look at your opening of Attack on Titans which has the least views it's opening 5 and it's a lyrics video.
I started following your channel because of your peace sign video and I grew to enjoy your other videos and songs but I am glad to hear you will still do anime music but on a different channel.
Oh ya... the issue is definitely with UA-cam algorithm.. my channel is a hot mess of Gaming/AMV/ Tutorials and ya... lol love to hear it. Can't wait to see you live on twitch.
Subscribe to the new ANIME ONLY channel! 🔥

I cant wait for someone to go on your twitch chat and be like "this music is kinda jonathany"
Jonathan, you are awesome. Some of your older covers I can still listen to over and over and over and over again. I hope you one day do a cover of Boston's Foreplay/Long Time where you go nuts on the keyboard in the beginning like Boston does during their live shows. Do it with Caleb, Richaad and Family Jules if you want or don't want. I just want to hear the epic maestro cover one of the all time best songs in an epic way that reminds mw of the live shows so I can close my eyes and let my chromestisia loose and then enjoy the song.

Definitely subscribing to the new channel, but more importantly, I am SUPER looking forward to the new album!! Your original music is always incredible and I can't wait to hear more of it!
I only found you because of your anime covers and making a channel specifically focused around anime music is a great idea if everyone else doesn't really care for it. Super hyped about the jjk opening 😁
I'm in the pocket that clicks on every song I know or don't know of. Thank you for that variety.
The algorithm likes consistency and dislikes diversity. That's why things are going up and down.
I'm subbed for the Starship Velociraptor and the 10000 lightyears videos. They're absolutely amazing.
I got into your channel awhile back because you were variety. I loved it! And I watch anime stuff or disney, many covers, loved metal music more than half of my life, so youtube needs to CHILL. I'd get recommended a variety of stuff. I'm so glad you're not quit!! I love your music and acting in your vids.
Your anime covers are always top-notch, and that's why I love to hear this.
you start with variety until you narrow down what niche does best for you. But you still need to be YOU, so I'm really glad you're starting a new channel instead of just stopping what you love.
The Caleb with the milk wallpaper still cracks me up 😂
subscribed so fast my keyboard lit on fire then wrote a guitar solo about it. letsgo! love your music and personality, you rock!
Honestly the algorithm is hard to follow a lot so glad you seem to be figuring out or at least down to experiment and figure it out, can’t wait to see what you have in store for the album and the new channel! Though I swear the name sounds familiar as well.
The anime covers are how I came across your music. I'll subscribe 😊
Glad I'm not the Only one listening to FabvL, Divide Music and Will Stetson esp. Will Stetson
I freaked out, cried and peed on the floor just by reading the Title. Subbed immediately
Anime covers were how i discovered you lol love your music and keep the great tunes coming :D
The Tokyo Ghoul cover introduced me to your channel and I'm so happy
Still waiting for the full version of what's up people. Give us the death note. The world is mid at best.
Do what you must, though I really hate that the algorithm requires you to do such overly specialized channels. To me, music is music; so long as it all comes from the same creator, it's all probably as good as the rest. If only discovered one of your channels after you split, the other channels would probably fly over my head, and I'd miss out on a lot of content from you.
It honestly warms my heart seing the progress you have made during last years. I feel that it is like your dream come true and its so satisfactory. Keep it up Jonathan! You are doing great job
I'm here for all of it. I love anime, I love Disney, I love your regular music covers and even your originals. It sucks that things are the way they are. I subbed to your new channel. Can't wait for more.
I was about to say lol love your chainsaw man cover! Been listening to you since your beanie, baby faced days and youve grown so much as an artist. Keep killing it Jonathan!
This video is an absolute masterpiece as an announcement video lol. Also the Caleb pic on the screen in the background is hilarious
Keep the good tunes going Jonathan. Randomly found ya and hooked since. And I’m here too rock out with a rather cool dude and jamming tunes.
Started following you after HEEEEEEEEEERRROOOOOOOOOOO and stayed for everything ya do. SIlly stuff serious YOUR DEPTH , seriously unravel cover was WOW.
Me hopes ya can work the ever changing oddity of the algorithm. Already subcribed to the new 1 with 22.2k others:)
Nah man, this was how I first discovered you. But you do what you gotta do to help your channel. I'll gladly always listen
I'm a terrible fan. I wait till everything is on Spotify and listen till my ears bleed then listen some more. Tbh you, Caleb, and Annapantsu I listen to the most 🤷🏼♀️😁
That doesn't make you a terrible fan!
I thought you stopped posting on UA-cam because I hadn’t received any new videos from you on my recommendations, until I just searched you and just saw everything that has been added to Spotify is up here. Stupid UA-cam and stupid algorithms. Love everything you post you are hands down one of my favorite musicians. Period. Just subscribed to the new channel and hit that bell!!!!
Honestly as a metal fan and an anime viewer i love your takes on anime openings like your take on Unravel which still hangs on my playlist ever then even so i still await smth more epic from ya m8 what i mean is you hv a gr8 false cord technique where u can instantly slide in those nearly heavenly cleans like in Unravel ,anyway whatever what ya do im gonna sub both channels, Stay strong and hv a nice yt life on new channel (subbed already)
Ok, why is there a picture of Caleb next to bottles of milk on Jonathan's monitor? Why is it just that on the monitor? There's not even other tabs open, it's just that picture.
Jon:"Before you freak out and cry and pee on the floor"
Me: "He knows anime fans so well"
YES NEW ALBUM!!!! Starship Velociraptor is by far my most listened to album since its release. Cannot wait for new original music. This is what the cover grind has been for and I hope it pays off
I’m scrolling through your past videos and damn I noticed the varying degree of views. Some hitting only 100k, while those beside it hit 2mill. Been around since your cover of opm and your channels has to be one of my favorite music channel.
Yeah that checks out, you built a channel around variety but anime did better and so when you dont do anime the algorithm burries you. That's all channels that upload any kind of anime content and it's perfectly reasonable.
Yeah makes sense to separate the two so the variety channel is actually variety without being punished for no good reason.
Fantastic idea and thank you for sharing your thoughts and making it easier for fans to listen to what they wanna listen to more easily!
I blame the UA-cam algorithm, but I will most certainly be subscribing to the new channel! I absolutely love your content! Your One Piece English Cover was truly phenomenal, and I listen to it regularly. (The live action is AMAZING btw
So glad you made a full cover of the jjk OP.
Great idea - seems like a win for everybody. I have no interest in anime music but a lot of people do, and I'm sure many of them have no interest in your rock/pop covers that I'm into. This way we both get what we like while never being bothered by the other
I think it's a great idea, youtube works in a weird way. I hope this works for you because you're great and it's unfair that the channel suffers because some people (like me, no anime for me sorrry) have narrow tastes in music. I'll stay here for the metal and pirates and Disney covers and super great collaborations with Colm
Seems like a smart move to me. Happy to follow your new channel. I love listening to your music and I hope to listen for years to come. Wishing you luck, sir.
Honestly none of you music cover is a mistake i enjoyed them all and seeing you have so much fun making them with everyone that what i like about your music cover and will definitely keep listening to all your old and new stuff.
Now there’s time to do an epic 80’s power ballad of Frozen 2’s Lost in the Woods! I bet Caleb would be down for a collab
Yasssss
For me I’m not a big anime fan to begin with so making a channel for only anime covers I think is a great idea for everyone who loves that stuff while me and others continue to enjoy covers of songs from animated movies especially ones that are forgotten or ones that don’t get much attention, and of course more ORIGINALS.
It was anime music that introduced me to your channel! I absolutely love your music!!
ive been following you for ages now, and my personal favourite of the music youve released is still to this day, Starship Velociraptor, I cant wait to listen to your new album
Personally what I liked about this channel is precisely its diversity. When I received a notification I never knew what to expect. But I imagine that not everyone thinks like me. Will there still sometimes be video clips of your Anime covers on Villainous or just video lyrics?
Good question! I've found that anime fans typically don't care about seeing my actual face on video, and are usually much more concerned about seeing the characters in the thumbnail with lyrics in the video, so unfortunately I'll be doing a lot less performing on camera for anime stuff.
@@jonathanymusic Oh? Personally, I think that if your covers of Unravel (Tokyo Ghoul), One Punch Man or Attack on Titan have garnered so many views, it's on the contrary because we can see all the energy you put into them on camera. Seeing someone who looks so passionate about singing my favorite opening makes me want to watch it multiple times and share it. If we look at your opening of Attack on Titans which has the least views it's opening 5 and it's a lyrics video.
I started following your channel because of your peace sign video and I grew to enjoy your other videos and songs but I am glad to hear you will still do anime music but on a different channel.
Dude, you damn know I will sub to you from anything! You literally made a part of my UA-cam childhood!
Looking forward to seeing/hearing you at Kami Con Hai!
I found Tokyo Ghoul from your "Unravel" cover! But I love your original content as well, I'll be subscribing to both channels!
Oh ya... the issue is definitely with UA-cam algorithm.. my channel is a hot mess of Gaming/AMV/ Tutorials and ya... lol love to hear it. Can't wait to see you live on twitch.
