Sitting in the darkness as I write this, I can't help but wonder what it would be like to be the one on the other side. What do I mean by this? I wonder what it would be like to be the singer and to have an audience in awe of me; dancing to the music and taking in the music as the melodies slowly enter the crowd.

Did Jon Davidson wonder the same things before he took his dream and made it a reality? I guess this is just something we'll have to find out. Until then, let's check out some more of his music.

Jon Davidson originates from Portland, OR. He has toured in 5 countries and almost all of the states. His singles have been released world-wide, throughout various radio stations over the US and Canadian airwaves. Jon released his debut album, "Perfect Cliche", in October 2006 and recently signed a deal to have "What Can I Say" be used as a part of an upcoming film entitled Twisted Redemption.

So many prospects for him presently and in the future. “Good enough,” you say, “but what about the music.”

As I type this, I am listening to the music. It is giving me so much inspirtation for this review, and the words flow right from my thoughts to my finger tips. Jon is definitely a rock singer. Listening to the guitar stumming in the soulful song of "What Can I Say", it shows that there has been much thought put into the lyrics. He can definitely leave an emotional audience after listening to this heartfelt song. “Your love takes my breath away. So what can I say.”

But don't think that this is all Jon as instore for his audience. After listening to "What Can I Say", I went to another song which gave me the pleasent, more upbeat sound that made me start to dance in my chair. "It Won't Be Long (The Klubjumpers Remix)" is definitely a song I can see someone listening to on a Friday night, getting ready to hit the town for a night of dancing with friends.

So Jon, it won't be long before the fans pour in.

Then we come to the songs such as "Finger in The Eye" that have a little more edge. Being one of the people who love live shows, this is definitely one that leaves me imagining myself at a show and watching them rock out on stage.

Jon Davidson has songs that will captivate many audiences from it's variation. I see this rocker having a great future ahead of him. Soon enough he'll be thinking “What did I do? (Hermit Crab)”

Well Jon, you've used your talent to captivate an audience. You've definitely turned on the light for me, I can't wait to see what's coming next.
