Had this on repeat without realising it. So chill.

My man! can you do a reaction of Cory Henry at the jazz festival - ruclips.net/video/gEEph4GBXF0/видео.html&t

Wow ok. Thanks!

Good stuff! Have you done "Ocean wide, Canyon Deep" yet? (The Mahogany version ft Maro) Am really curious to see you take on it ... Would also like to see you take on the live version of "In the real early morning"

You doing the most sir

Man you're so good, keep on

As always a pleasure to watch and listen to your analysis!!

The opening "bell" motif is another example of Jacob's microtonal explorations. I believe it's roughly based on an equal division of a whole tone into 3 parts. It's not exactly "planar" motion because the chords change voincings. Also, It never gets to the "resolution" note. It's divided into 3 equal parts, but he doesn't play the note that division is heading toward. Also, according to what Jacob said in his Logic session breakdown, the prechorus is based on traditional triadic harmony.

Hey, your title references Hideaway, like your last vid.

Always love your reaction and the analysis Brings a different perspective in music in general Keep up the good work!! Looking forward to see more from you

My favorite performance of Jacob's "Hideaway" was the Paste Magazine studio performance. One of my favorite things about Jacob is how much variety he can pull out of each song. I hope he starts a trend of creating songs in several styles.

4:34 That’s more than chromatic brother

This is interesting from a theoretical perspective but once again I can’t help but feel that Jacob is over complicating a song that is already perfect the way it was written. I truly believe in making a cover your own but he’s barely even paying homage at all to the original. The melody and the bass line are about the only things recognizable and he somehow overcomplicates that too. I kind of sense it’s performed for musicians to dissect so they can praise Jacob Collier rather than for fans of the original artists to appreciate

Could you do quennel gaskin pleaseeeee!!!

Could you do an analysis of the song "the Christmas song" Jacob Collier? Thank you

Would love to hear what you have to say about these amazing harmonic pieces too: Denny Zeitlin, Love For Sale: ruclips.net/video/KRqDyrpNiNY/видео.html Lyle Mays, Stella By Starlight: ruclips.net/video/iPHXXKgGX8c/видео.html Shai Maestro, All The Things You Are: ruclips.net/video/DiDt5LNXsMY/видео.html Jesus Molina (and Roni Kaspi! ): A Night in Tunisia: ruclips.net/video/4RaR210hglo/видео.html Jesus Molina (solo), Dolphin Dance: ruclips.net/video/4oz5hGh7ZJ4/видео.html And perhaps a little further from home, but still interesting: Valeriy Stepanov, The Chicken: ruclips.net/video/CGf62-MG014/видео.html Jonah Nillson, Coffee Break: ruclips.net/video/LgfbjJZXbSU/видео.html Knower, Overtime: ruclips.net/video/GnEmD17kYsE/видео.html Genevieve Artadi (solo, a capella), June Again: ruclips.net/video/niL9Yjo4beQ/видео.html And, why not some more Jacob, with Saje: ruclips.net/video/6rY59w4sJbA/видео.html (note the change of tempo when he comes in)

At around 20:21 in your analysis, I wonder if these notes capture it: Bb bass note, with Eb, Ab, C, D, F, and then dropping into that wonderful tritone substitution which sounds to me like: E natural bass note, with Eb, Gb, Bb, Db, and F above it. Note the beautiful clash of the F natural over the E natural bass. I love your analysis of his stuff, you have a real skill. Jacob is hard to analyze, because he does not rely on the various musical "stories" (ie: which harmonies lmake a good sequence, such as 3/6/2/5/1). He finds ways to make any two chords follow from each other. Maybe take a listen to ruclips.net/video/4PIMR_oGRcU/видео.html (Jacob with Maro), esp. 5:00 - 5:10 and also especially 7:48 - 7:59. Anyway, please keep up the good work. Subscribed.

Love your Jacob reactions 🙂. The audio is not synched with the video in this one, makes it difficult to watch for me. Just an FYI.

Boss channel! love this stuff bro 🪄

Great work man!!

most underrated reaction channel.

Thanks for this! Some of Jacob’s music creates such interesting sounds that I lack the skill to correctly figure out, so it’s great to so what notes are actually being played

21:52 prettiest note ever

And by the eay, this channel is crazy!!!! You make JC's music that much more accessible. You are so incredibly talented, I'm in awe. Thanks for giving us this content !

I love me some Brandy ❤. Her and Aaliyah are my favorite singers

Fantastic video really appreciate your work

I never noticed before but the ascending bass line at 18:25 is pretty similar to the end of Life on Mars, and think it's also at the end of Mr. Blue Sky? Great analysis your ear is sharp!! Obsessed with this cover, like everything JC

I was there live, and this very song was especially cool to hear/sing since at around 17:00 Jacob noticed us (the audience) singing the melody and started to accompany instead of leading the performance!

I taught music for 35 years and just wanted to let you know how much I enjoy your videos. Your breakdowns are amazing and you are INCREDIBLY talented. Having the keyboard and music staff brings "sense" to things and I cannot thank you enough for all the videos and taking time to do these. Oh, and the facial expressions are HILARIOUS!!! Glad I am not the only one that constantly raises my eyebrows on "Jacob" songs. Haha Thank you sir!

I was just watching the old videos lmao

You’ve got a great ear Manley and great insight to the music. Great stuff 👍

AMAZING video my friend. This was great. Thank you.

Woooow!! This is actually such a nice thing to have in my toolbag! Lovely!

I am grateful for your channel!!

Thank you for continuing to do these

Three of the most talented musicians on the planet and a guy who “gets it” breaking down the music theory behind their brilliance. Huge thanks for an excellent video Manley!

I've been waiting for this analysis for so long. Thank you so much for the fantastic video!

Your videos are insanely good!

Lovely - thanks for your ear and mind translation - brilliant!

did they take the video down? the mahogany session

react to the songs in Jacob’s in my room album

I was about to try and learn the Jacob section chords by ear, this video is a godsend, liked and subbed bro 😁👍

Do a reaction to "Georgia On My Mind - Jacob Collier" please!

One very underrated channel

Awesome reaction! Id love to see your thoughts on his world o world song, it's acapella but has some really nice chord voicings!

Great lesson. I’ve got such a weird and fickle relationship with JC. While he’s got vibes, theory, and groove, there’s just something missing for me in his songs. This may make me sound like an asshole, but his songs always sound like someone writing songs that has never been through a single bit of problems in his life. No hardship. It all feels to effervescent. It’s like, I feel whatever he’s doing, but I just can’t ever FEEEEEL it, you dig? I want to like him more, but it just feels like trust fund grooves and I hate that I feel that way and also hate it in itself.

Wow, your analysis is extremely helpful and impressive! Thanks a lot

Great inspiration and educational too, thanks!

As usual: superb dissection with a generous portion of emotions. Thank you, Mr. Manley.
