  • ALWAYS THE BEST JON

    just as beautiful as ever

    hard to compete with you

    you just sound as E,,,and there is nobody can do a thing about it,,,the cream of the crop~

  • I am a VERY BIG fan of Elvis and when I heard Jon Cotner's voice I was blown away... How can someone contact this amazing man or send him a message?

    The last message I see was two months ago. Maybe there will be others soon...Jon is awsome!!

  • Yes, it is him

  • I'm not an Elvis fan but I'm amazed with this Jon Cotner theory....I'm starting to believe he (Elvis) got fed up with fame and wanted to go underground.

  • i believe its HIM! not because i so want to,,,but it sounds soooo much like him... the tempo, the rythm. it dosent sound like a Forced elvis like the impersonators it sounds so natural. amazing.

  • man....it sounds just like elvis. it could be him.... who knows?!

  • Jon Cotner is too young to be Elvis, there are similarities, but that's where it ends.

    Anyone who thinks a coroner would be party to a fake death is kidding themselves.

  • I knew you where alive...I've written a song for you. I recorded it on my own portable 16 track. It's about your life. Its on my facebook page. Listening to you makes my heart almost explode with happiness...! Look up Ethan Allen on Facebook and you'll find a video called Elvis. Thats the songs title also! I've read some of the comments here and some of these bozos actually don't realize who you are!!! I wish I could meet you and harmonize with you...Take It Easy, your friend Ethan

  • HI JON or whoever you may be just take good care of yourself wheathere you are him or you are not him I just am happy to know I can come here and leave you a messege that is EVERLASTING. we were raised up in the same faith and I sat on the same old hard benches in the small churches with the outhouses as you did and also heard the damnation gospel until I learned about the real GOSPEL> GOD IS GOOD And he never has left you and never will. He will always watch over you and yours.. Hugs Bobbie

  • Great singer! reminds me of my childhood and listening to Elvis records with my parents. I remember the day my father cried over Elvis dying.He cried for hours.Jon,I just want to say who ever you are you are making fans all over smile and remember a more gentle time in the world not as it is now. May God have blessed you with happiness and faith. Continue your positive role.

  • yea, I have to agreen with codygirton, why has this guy never tried singing in public before, he's a very good singer, sounds alot closer to elvis then alot of the people i've heard... make some money off the good voice of yours,, it not making any here on you tube bud,, best wishes, god bless you..

  • Another bad singing version of Mr Presley songs , keep trying im afraid your voice isnt close but its a good try.

    I know people in bars in Poland who sing much closer to Mr Presley than you.

  • is no jon..jon is elvis.

  • THERE HAS NEVER BEEN ANY ONE WHO COULD SING AS CLOSE AS JON HAS TO THE GREATEST ENTERTAINER WHO EVER GRACED US WITH HIS PRESENCE ON THE STAGES OF SMALL TOWNS AND HUGE CASINOS FOR WHAT? TO ONLY BE HURT AND EVERY INCH OF HIS BODY IN PAIN AND THE PEOPLE CLOSEST TO HIM WHO HE LOVED USED HIM FROM THE TIME HE WAS A KID. i AM OLDER NOW AND WISER. BUT TO THIS VERY DAY I KNOW HE KNEW GOD AND I KNOW WHEN HE WAS ALONE HE PRAYED HE WAS NEVER ONE TO PRAY OUT LOUD HEARD GOD HIS PRAYERS AND IS WITH HIM NOW.XXO

  • Beautiful...and hey sca19591 remeber when you point fingers (assume) there are 3 more fingers pointing right back at chu! lol all in spirit right. PS Generally those regrets sadness tears are what makes one great ..

  • Too many sound coincidences.. i don't know.. this is the first person, I've ever come across that sounds and acts exactly like Elvis. Now if could just find an 80 year old Jame Dean.

  • @verynicelookingguy27 I agree, lol, good luck with James Dean :)

  • Elvis sang alot of non- instrumental songs just playing around and having fun. if you search hard enough you can find them and you too could pretend you are Elvis.

  • Great singing Jon, you are the man! Nice to Know.

  • He Should Sing either Moody Blue, Hurt, or Viva Las Vegas

  • I know who is this guy, I know him because I love him. Even you do it very well Jon, the gift that God gave you, it will continue with you until the end of time, I love you Jon, for the great human being you are. GOD bless you allways for everything you give us on stage. A hug and a kiss.

  • Faboulous singing jon,,,many blessings and keep the songs coming,,they are great.

  • Elvis if I break the code will you grant me to bee a movie star in a small movie I know cuz I am smart

  • Why wouldnt anyone investigate this?

  • If this guy is elvis I got something to tell him! I was at graceland 2010 I stayed at the hotel across the street, while at the hotel the next morning a women who played in a movie with you was trying to sell her pictures with you HA! Then theres a bunch of retards running graceland, your house, The elvis estate has so much money that if you are him Im sure if you came out you could pay off everybody to not lock you up,If you are Elvis you must want to still sing making these video's

  • has this guy ever said NO IM NOT ELVIS?

  • This man is 76 years old. Same age as Elvis. He looks like Elvis. He sounds exactly like Elvis, considering that Elvis' voice would have changed a little bit with age. What are the odds? I mean seriously, I've always been one to brush off the claims that Elvis is still alive, but I discovered this guy, and I'm starting to believe. I just wish, if it is true, that Jon (Elvis) would come back into the public eye, before it's too late. He can't live forever. It would be the greatest thing.

  • @codygirton But.....what if the voice we hear does NOT belong to the man we see on the picture?

    Nobody saw this grey guy sing live.

  • I would love to here you sign Girl Happy , with your higher tone now that would be perfect.

  • its very clear to me that there are two very different voices here

  • 777 !!!

  • 777, i was wondering what would you like for christmas jon. let us know, god bless.

  • 777, HI JON, JUST A LITTLE NOTE WISHING YOU A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR.

  • This man is a good singer and he entertains people, thats all.

  • This is amazing, belting out those lyrics at the end gave me shivers!

    @JimmytheJam as powerful as this is, I would love to hear some higher quality recordings :D

  • Comment removed

  • Jon Cotner doesn't have the same smile as Elvis has...A smile doesn't lie...He, maybe, likes Elvis alot but he's not him...This is my own opinion. And the voice...I'm not so sure (some good notes and tone but not all of them)...

  • JON, WHY DONT U GIVE THE WORLD A GREAT XMAS PRESENT THIS YEAR? TELL US THE TRUTH! IT WOULD GIVE SUCH JOY. EVEN YOUNG PEOPLE LOVE YOUR MUSIC. ELVIS MUSIC. DONT WAIT UNTIL U REALLY R TOO OLD TO REVEAL URSELF BESIDES OF THE TAPE U PRERECORDED. I'VE BEEN AROUND ALOT OF ELVIS IMPERSONATORS FROM WORKING IN AN THEATRE N MEETING LOTS OF THEM. NONE OF THEM SOUNDED ANYTHINGLIKE U, BUT THEN AGAIN WHO CAN IMPERSONATE THE REAL ONE?

  • god bless you jon,the doctor that treated you was wright,or should i say jesse,or elvis ,it was all about money,what now ,need more money ,i think its time for you to tell the trutth jon,don"t you.

  • sounds like elvis to me

  • bravo mr cotner bravo, your the closest thing to elvis i ve ever heard, ! cant believe your voice man , so strong and true for someone of your years , amazing! the king is alive long live the king! lol

  • I love the pic at :23. Elvis looks very happy. I love those piano shots at :38 and :46, so beautiful.

  • Seriously, you need to post a video of him while he's singing.

    Now THAT would be interesting.

    I'm pretty sure this isn't Elvis. Just a half-decent imitator, with a slightly higher tone of voice. Elvis had much deeper tones when singing and when talking.

    This guy's just foolin' around and doin' it well (to paraphrase a line from a song sung Elvis).

  • Why is there no footage of Mr. Cotner singing??? I would like to see him physically singing??

  • @Tropixxx71

    Me too.

    

  • @Tropixxx71 I agree with you . How do we know who is actually singing?

  • I don't care who's singing this, that is sexy as f***! ;)

  • He is a Native American, but with blue eyes. Fantastic.

    I believe Mr. Presley left and returned to his Native American roots. Was accepted into a community somewhere, where he became one of them. And God bless them all for doing this, taking care of a legendary soul and keeping it a secret. The most honest kind of people on Earth.

    Rest in Peace Elvis A. Presley, because either way, he has passed on to a state of God-fueled rest.

  • im glad you just keep on singing a song im always listening.........neil

  • IVE PRAYED AND PRAYED THAT YOU WERE STILL ALIVE, I KNOW YOUR STILL HERE ALWAYS HAVE. GOD IF YOU CAME BACK INTO THE SPOTLIGHT AND DID A COMEBACK CONCERT SAY AT GRACELAND AT NIGHT. MY GOD YOU WOULD SMASH THESE SO CALLED STARS TO LITTLE BITS, I LOVE YOU JON I REALLY DO.

  • I dont agree, I think he will have been happier these 30 years than ever before. being able to do as he pleases and go places. .

  • All your songs are the greatist, hope some day we can see the video along with your singing. It is so kind of you to keep sharing with your fans, the music and photos.

    Although I'd love to see you without the beard again, not that I don't like beards, I do, but it hides your wonderful smile. Thank you and Jimmy for bringing you to our attention.

  • that is why i listened to elvis , powerful voice and fun, funny ad libs, like i'm right there with him, years ago!! great songs jon! more, more!!

  • Great job on these songs,jon has such a wonderful voice.

  • Grand memories and was glad to take part in being there, Thanks for posting Jim. Always a Friend here in WV Jon

  • Awesome. Great vid too. Thanks for sharing my friend.

  • What an awesome, unforgetable, evening with Jon singing, joking and just being himself. I had a great time. Thank you Jon for a fun evening :-)

    Thanks Jim for posting these memories. Great pics, some I've never seen before.

  • Jon Cotner is one lonely man.  When I hear him sing, I hear regret, sadness, tears, a broken heart. I hear a man who gave it all up for someone whom he loved with all is heart but it was to late. I hear a man who has turned to God for his salvation.

    I hear a man who has a voice of an Angel, and was sent to this planet to late. Peace love and Blessings to you Jon. God loves you, always did, always will.

  • @sca19591 He certainy wouldn't be lonely anymore! I hear a man who I have waited my whole life to meet. Who I have dreamed and prayed for years to find. Who does have a voice of an angel and I am sure the soul and spirit of one as well. I agree God loves you, always did, always will and so do I. Hopefully by divine guidance, our paths will cross.

  • @sca19591 Why is it Too late lol. Is he dead...? ima feel stupid if he is...

  • Fantastic selection from a great night Jon, it was fun!
