Thanks for sharing this with me. Jonathan is a true icon, thanks to him for never selling himself out. The number of artists that have integrity like this I can count on ONE hand. What a great interview, made my evening.
Man, I can't believe he doesn't like the record Jonathon Sings, I love the album Jonathon Sings! When Jonathon is talking about cute stuff, I think of I'm a little Dinosaur, and Abominable snowman in the market(good songs too, but real cutesy). Jonathon Sings has, That Summer Feeling and You're the one for me! The album may be a little cute, but I think the songs rock on this recording!
"The good thing about my records is that I was given complete control, the bad thing about my records is that I was given complete control." Jonathan continues to be underheard... and misunderstood and more interviews would help him, IMO.
if du need en gitar player bare call om me off. Im a duganes player in både keyboard og gitar såååå hvis its needen I do my part. By the way, Im a sailor by work. take it easy, fellas!
my favourite... 'if that's all they see, i wouldn't blame 'em if they go and tell my wife, but my wife knows me better than that'... a marriage or a partnership should be bigger than the voyeur locals... but still he honours their consideration for the one he loves... crushing that he's losing love for those songs

Can you imagine Jonathan saying bad things about anyone? I can't.
"Iggy Stooge, of course."
Of course.
"You people live in a box...whereas I live in a shed."
He speaks just like a kid!
UNDISLIKABLE.

Zero dislikes. Goddamn right.

He can't listen to Jonathan Sings? A lot of great artists miss out on their own great stuff.
How much can I love a man? This much.
