Have we really forgotten how much better 2017-18 still was than even 2019, let alone ’22? Jon was hitting + holding some tough notes better than in at least 4 years and even his timing was better alongside the pitch control.

Show me even a single performance of a song post-2018 where Jon a) manages to stay on key most of the time and b) doesn’t drag massively behind the beat - right, there aren’t any, so perhaps people will finally admit he was indeed still way better 6-7 years ago than ever since then, and to compare this kind of a situation where he was struggling but still had a functioning voice, to one where he could no longer even speak properly, is just silly.
