Looking back 10 years ago, I never expected Jon to sound like he does today. Jon doesn't even deliver a song the same anymore. He is so safe, that his songs come off unnatural.
If a producer could magically make Jon sound the way he did back in his prime, I'd be all for it.
When I hear Jon sing Alwayeeeeeeees, it makes me crazy.

Totally agree with you, especially in terms of him not being the performer he used to be anymore. I listened to the concert from Osaka 1995 in the car today - man what a difference! They used to be the kings of rock'n'roll back then. Just watch how Jon goes crazy and does a rare reprise of Wild in the Streets:
