    Songs you would love to hear Jonathan sing?

    I was listening to some of my other CD's last night and there are a few songs that I would pay good money to hear Jonathan sing. Smile

    Santa Lucia - Pavarotti sings it so beautifully and I just know that Jonathan would too.

    Panis Angelicus -  A huge favourite of mine. 

    Ave Maria : the traditional tune - I so so so would love to hear Jonathan sing it.

    I'm sure I will be back with loads more - just wondered does anyone else have songs that they really would love to hear Jonathan sing?

     

    Love Molly xx

    I would also love to hear him sing 'Panis Angelicus' Molly as he sang it on his first album when he was 17/18 and it would be interesting to hear how he sounds singing it now as compared to then before he went to Guildhall Big Smile

     I would like 'Panis Angelicus' for the same reason as Cathy, I'm sure he would sound so much stronger now than he did on his first album.  I would also like to hear him sing 'Time to say Goodbye', I love that song.

    That's another favourite of mine and he did say on the Wright Show that his album then was so he had a record of what he sounded like before going to Guildhall Wink, so he  could re-do that album for me as there are some lovely songs on it and it would be good to compare how he has progressed vocally ont hem

    Well I'm going to move away from the classical theme for mine Big Smile

    I've always wanted to hear Jonathan sing My Immortal by Evanesence - I think he'd do an amazing version of it Big Smile

    There is a few tracks I would love to hear him sing from his first album, Most of them in fact, Just to hear the difference, Would sound like two totally different people I would especially love to hear him sing empty chairs and empty tables from that album :)

    I would also love to hear him sing A million love songs, Amongst lots of others, I know it aint classical, I always wanted G4 to do that or hjim do it for his solo. But alas :(

    There is Loads of classical ones id love to hear him do, If I had to pick just one, Just one song in total. I dunno, Would have to be one that showed the whole range of what he is capable of, Hmmmm

     I might have a think about it and come back to it. Me likes these types of questions :)

    I'd love him to sing So Deep Is The Night based on a Chopin tune, Lesley did it on one of her albums recently. It's so beautiful (actually it's being used in an ad at the moment, the one of the curly haired guy waiting for his kiddie,) builds nicely and has a grand stand finish that Jonathan could really go to town with.

    That might be a theme for the next album, classical pieces that have been turned into popular songs.

    Re: Songs you would love to hear Jonathan sing?

    This is a difficult one indeed...... I'm not very original and my brain ain't working yet!

    Modern songs would be ......

    Somewhere , Maria (West Side Story)

    Home is another favourite , although we've heard Jon do this on tour....I love this song and would like to see it on a CD sometime.

    Without You.... (Mariah Carey and Neilson , I think did this originally ) some high notes in this would suit Jon so well.Surprise

    Classical....

    Ave Maria definitely

    Time To Say Goodbye

    Panis Angelicus

    After listening to Che Gelida Manina which I absolutely love I'd like Jon to introduce me to some some more opera ....as long as it's not too heavy.Huh?

     There are some arias I may have heard but I don't know the names of .

    Basically I'm open to hear anything that Jon sings.Big Smile

     For me I loved that Tenor at the movies was not the usual much covered classical crossover tracks -i'd love Jonathan to continue with that with his next album and give exposure to some lesser known classical gems .Basicly as long as he picks tracks that push Jonathan as a artist and showcases his beatuiful voice as it deserves ..also that surprise and offer something new for the music buying public-i'll be very happy.Smile

     

    I'd also hope that the next album will be classical chart eligible again -I just think if Jonathan is to continue step by step to establish himself in the classical genre-the next album needs to enter the classical charts.Smile

    I would like to hear Jonathan sing:-

    "Ave Maria"

    "Time To Say Goodbye" - duet with Sarah Brightman.

    Nilsson's "Without You"

    Re: Songs you would love to hear Jonathan sing?

    Couldnt sleep last night - so got to thinking of what sort of albums I'd personally love from Jonathan - if it was only me he had to please! Big Smile

    So these are my "fantasy" albums:

    My first one I think would be an album of spirituals - performed with a gospel choir - it would have to include:

    Deep River

    Steal Away

    I need Thee every hour (not traditionally a spiritual - but could be done in that way with the right arrangement)

    Amazing Grace (I was listening to G4 last night - and Jonathans vocals on Amazing Grace are so beautiful)  

    Peace in the Valley

    Swing Low sweet chariot

    Walking in the Light

    Why Me Lord (off one of Cliff's gospel albums - would be gorgeous with Jonathans voice!)

     

    Back with more later.  Big Smile

     

    Love Molly xx
