Jacob's tenderness is always the upper most layer of his creations, and his excellence is not perfection, but rather it is found in the vastness and depth of his expressiveness.
It's like he knows how to target the most vulnerable spot you have as a listener and then just nurture it gently. Incredible. Happened with almost every song of his I've heard
Jacob is one of the best music artists out their now, yesterday and tomorrow. Music is his soul , not in it but is it. I know Jacobs mother is a conductor and from what I've seen she is amazing so I believe her soul is music. Thanks mom, seriously thank you for giving us yourself and your also amazing son Jacob. Godspeed.
This is the first time I'm hearing this song, and oh am I so very touched by all the lyrics in dodie's verse. "You held me down before," "I'm so free without you," and yet I'm "gonna miss you like summer rain." This feels like it is speaking my soul. "I get by, so high," higher than with you. But you persist in being a part of me. And I continue to miss the times we had that were sweet and joyous, like rain in the summer. What an incredibly beautiful representation of the dichotomy of this kind of grief, coupled by joy. It feels like it's telling me that it's okay to have both, and it makes that grief feel sweeter somehow. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for everyone involved in bringing this music to life ❤
i can't help but cry at this version of summer rain. dodie's sweet vocals and jacob's incredible harmonies and ad libs are just breathtaking. the way that the audience, dodie, and the orchestra watch jacob just speaks volumes about his musical abilities. what an amazing soul and such beautiful gifting. the NSO is so incredible and dodie is so gentle yet powerfully moving. i love being alive to hear this 💙
I HAVE DREAMED FOR THIS DAY, FOR THEM TO DO ANOTHER COLLAB because I know the pure admiration they just have for each other, and to sing SUMMER RAIN??? MADE MY YEAR 💞
@@nathanvarghese. I was at his live piano once and he did the same thing too and the crowd just vibe along and harmonize. You'd be surprised of what a combination of normal people could do in unison, truly spectacular ⭐
Many people still do not realize that we are in front of one of the best musicians of recent times. Let's take advantage and enjoy because that is surely what Jacob wants us to do with his genius.
People who write this kind of comments do not realize how many truly incredible musicians are out there. This is not to diminish Jacob, who is truly great. But there are people just as good as him, doing their own things. Jacob is better known, but not alone. Bunch of incredible composers, mind blowing multiinstrumentalists, original creators, child prodigies of all kinds. Good news for you is, you've got a lot of great things to discover.
@@vecernicek2if you know people who are “just as good as him” please tell us their names! Like I’m very open minded about this, but haven’t heard anyone come close in recent times. So I’m sceptical. But I’d really love to be shown that I’m completely wrong about this and get to hear even more genius music! Thanks for your answer :)
@@dolefomi Antoine Boyer, young guitarist. Gadi Lehavi, piano player. Sol Gabetta, classical cellist. Nastia Tiurina, child prodigy balalaika player. Keith Jarrett - no description needed. Cory Henry, multi-instrumentalist, singer. The list could be very long.
@@vecernicek2 most of the people will always be very little known, so this list will always be vastly incomplete. You can't really compare two people one by one, though. They all have their own talent, just as Jacob has his.
Did not have a dodie/Jacob Collier/NSO collab on my 2024 bingo but this is so breathtakingly lovely (Also, is she not wearing shoes? Love that for her tbh)
I’d describe myself as more impressed by JC than really into his music, but boy can he orchestrate. And these chord progressions are so Bruce Hornsby, quite nice. I think he’s going to wind up making something that I really love
I love it when he doesn’t over do the fancy chord progressions. Like another poster commented- for me the real beauty is in his sensitivity not in his impressive musical tricks
@@stevecoulthard8060 Just saw him in Mexico, I cried with those 2 songs. I can't explain it, but it was one of the highlights of my life, it moved me in a way no other artist has had that effect on me. I flew from Guatemala just to see him haha.
Jacob always says there's no such thing as a wrong note, yet he never ever seems to play one!!! Everything he does is perfection in my eyes, or ears rather.
I'm crying bro. This is beautiful. I love both Dodie and Jacob's voices, and the orchestra is doing a GREAT job. There's such warmth in this. Thank you for the upload.
In every version of this that I've heard (this, the studio recording, and the mahogany session), my favorite part is invariably the tension in the chords and subsequent release on the second verse. In this case, it's when Dodie sings "don't love you anymore" and "so high"
A splendidly sweet song sung with such tenderness and passion!!!! I sat mesmerized as I listened to the voices flowing and rising together! I know I will listen to this performance MANY MORE times! What a blessing!
First time I ever got to tears on a RUclips Video... A great Bravo from France and all the world for this fascinating music ! It inspires me so much for my own work. It makes me wanna work like crazy to get this emotion... Love on all of you, people of the earth.
Have to say I’ve been an admirer but never a fan of Jacob’s music and his particularly scattergun brand of delivery and production. But this is a revelation: an exceptional song brilliantly arranged and delivered. And, my god, the piano playing is nothing short of magnificent. He’s so much better and more convincing without all the bells and whistles. I’ll be very interested to see where he goes next.
Jacob's tenderness is always the upper most layer of his creations, and his excellence is not perfection, but rather it is found in the vastness and depth of his expressiveness.
I will praise this way to the next barista
Oo er, missus
❤ well formulated
🎉
Beautifully said🙂
I love seeing Jacob with Dodie.
Dodie and Jacob were truly born to sing together.
What a great time to be alive, I'm so glad of being able to listen Jacob and his universe.
Why don't you make a universe like him?
They've come a long way since their cover of The Beatles' "Here Comes The Sun"!

These are the siblings that got visited by the Cat in the Hat.
This is the best comment here. Well done sir or madam.
And they missed their dear friend(The Cat in the Hat) like Summer Rain. Pun intended.
That moment at @3:04 ❤
Sam I am.
Rare A+ comment
This is so childlike and it killed me 😭 if only every human could be as vulnerable as Jacob and Dodie.
This is so lush and beautiful
I HAVE DREAMED FOR THIS DAY, FOR THEM TO DO ANOTHER COLLAB because I know the pure admiration they just have for each other, and to sing SUMMER RAIN??? MADE MY YEAR 💞
Insane. Incredible. Beautiful. There are no words that fully describe this.
Love the overalls
My day isn’t complete without a song from Jacob. 😊
Unbelievable…. This was incredible in person
I’m so jealous wow
So was the audience all trained singers or just normal ppl?
@@nathanvarghese. Likely normal people, but Jacob lovers are typically also musically gifted haha. Plus he's a good director!

In case you are interested, on the PBS youtube channel, there is another song from this concert, featuring also Laufey.
@@sambritton3382SCREAMING
The soulful run at 2:57.. We are definitely influential!!! Great Job Jacob
That was so warmful, Dodie and Jacob Collier always were an incredible duo!
I’d describe myself as more impressed by JC than really into his music, but boy can he orchestrate. And these chord progressions are so Bruce Hornsby, quite nice. I think he’s going to wind up making something that I really love
Go and listen to the live recording of Little Blue or Fix You. They both reduce many people to tears, including me.

Chuck and Steve,
I would add Bridge Over Troubled Waters to that list.
And his choral piece, is it O World?

My favorite of the program, except maybe the finale (!) Tears at such sensitivity and beauty.
The joy this chaps gives to us is beyond measure. God's gift to us all
The arrangement of this is just out of this world. Incredible performance! 💙
Amazing!!!!!! Ben Folds, you sneaky devil. I had no idea this was going on. The Kennedy Center is so lucky! Bravo! Brava! That was awesome 👏👏👏
Dodie is gonna have a lot more fans after these videos, and a lot more people crushing on her. :)
I'm so proud of her. She's incredible and has come so far. Her voice was perfect for this song :') 🤍
They complement each other perfectly
I've been watching her for over a decade and she is truly deserving of what's to come!

Gives me hope when I see SO's working with "modern" artists. It's the perfect mixture of new and old forms of musical expression and only brings good.
Nearly unbelievable! Wonderful arrangement with Zero to 100 % dynamics! Great!!!
Just bring tears to my eyes. Thank you for sharing and Maestro Jacob ,Dodie and Nso 🙏🏾
angels at my door
ive heard of j. collier, and i freakin' love dodie. i did not expect this to be an experience. wow. wow.
Oh my god, that was unbelievable.
How great would have been being part of the orchestra that night. Time stopped I bet. ❤
I just couldn't stop smiling throughout this. What a beautiful way to start my day.
That piano riff at @2:05 ... .OH MY WORD
Get you someone who looks at you the way Dodie looks at Jacob Collier.
What a incredible performance. More than a song.. an experience .. a journey to a better place filled with beauty beyond words❤️👍
Isn't this just beautiful
The genius that is Jacob Collier.......
Bro Jacob has mastered the art of peace in music ❤ and that’s coming from the spirit me. Like i feel like i levitated
Quelle beauté !!!! Perfection, douceur, caresses, délicate musique céleste.
Jacob is one of the most underrated artists of our generation
this melts my heart
Perfect song for this rainy week and my feelings trembling but so comforting!
Beautiful performance 👏🏻
Where is the SUPER HYPER LOVE it button for this please RUclips!? Thank-you Jacob, Tori, John 😮✨❤️🔥
Absolute perfection from everyone involved. Thank you x
That performance was incredibly moving!
Dodie and Jacob! - Love them both!
This is really nice. Summer rain is probably the song I've listened to the most this year. And they performed it really well. Glad you are a believer.
Absolutely incredible!
Magical, love it! Love you guys! Orchestra sounds beautiful.
Saw you tonight at Austin ACL live. It was an amazing concert. Thank you for sharing your magic!
BEAUTIFUL 😀
Omg I watched them in the backyard singing here comes the sun with a thousand of instruments 😅❤
So so beautiful! Thank you for sharing, I always love to hear what these two put out 🤍🤍
Stunningly beautiful
MUSIC is still alive - thank you Jacob!
Absolutely beautiful!
Music taken to a new level
Jacob is the child inside Peter Gabriel in the Sledgehammer video.
Canons at 6:15 are just heavenly.
Incredibly beautiful ...
O soul of achingly wistful harmony…..
Perfectly described
This is MAGIC ❤
A massage for the soul
an amazing and beautiful song and performance
What an astonishing talent!
☀️☔️☺️😍how incredibly beautiful.
his voice is like a kiss on my skin😏💋
Expression such as this show understanding.
Oh wow, that was good - would love to see him, the Mozart of our day!
I know music directors who can’t keep a choir in key yet javelin can capture an audience with peace
Jacob é um verdadeiro gênio. Ave!
Awesome 👍
Incredible !!!

This man creates pure magic. There's just no other way to say it. Also, I could watch other people reacting to his magic all day.
3:38-3:46
“I don’t know your name or feel your shame, but I miss you like Summer Rain”
That’s a nice line.
trop smooth
Very nice!
Incredible harmony at 5:59-6:12
Please feature Sleeping at Last in my lifetime. Thank you.
genious
amazing!
Wonderful. All I ask is that you allow auto-generated captions for us with severe hearing loss.
so good
félicitation jacob
Shout out to whoever was the mixing and audio engineer for this. This mix is incredible.
dodie💜
Just wow
dodie skipping on stage like tinkerbell and gently dancing on my soul.
Still human and humble
