Don't get me wrong, I'm not criticising Jon for lowering the key; I'm simply saying that it does not make any sense to imply that "Jon sounds better on covers" when it's something that's so easy vocally as that JBG performance.

The thing is that Jon DOES sound better when doing covers. He seems to often forget to sing in a nasally way and give the song as much justice as he can. This goes with almost every cover. From bad case of loving you to shout to start me up - he changes the technique in how he sings. I feel like it might be a pride thing - making a cover sound good is important to Jon.
