I always wondered if people who watched legends perform, like Mozart or Beethoven, knew they were watching something timeless and groundbreaking. Watching Jacob made me sure that at least some of them did.
Tiago Masseti Profound and visionary.. well done...I’m back. Retrospectively after exploring this kids work deeper your post is EVEN more significant and I couldn’t think of a more accurate analogy. This kid is Michaelangelo with clay. Levi Strauss with denim...
@@mackdaddy8739 Yes. It took me some time to fully understand what he was doing when I first listened to it. But the more I dig into his creative process, the more I see that he is approaching music in ways that no really one did before. And he's pushing a lot of boundaries. And that's really hard to do nowadays.
Yes. His lyrics are moving, just fabulous. I remember in the song With the love in my heart by Jacob, there is a line says “ keep in motion, stay unspoken, if I’m broken, keep me open.” I was like oh mannn
I'm so happy to see so many people commenting on how gorgeous the piano sounds. Of course, Jacob's playing and singing are brilliant, but the piano is like another person there.
I know, right? I'd be first to preorder that album....just him and a piano. I think his musical genius really shines even brighter in these live performances - this, the last Mahogany session, Hide and Seek, Hallelujah, even the Snarky Puppy collab. I love his full stuff too, of course, but these feel so intimate and personal. Knowing how quickly he works, too, you'd have the album in an afternoon or a week at most.
He has released Djesse Vol. 2 since you commented this. There is definitely a lot going on in that album, but he is incredibly more vulnerable in it. It has become my favorite all time album.
@@corncake29 Absolutely. Couldn't agree more. When he backs off from his maximalist approach to arranging (which I love), his most profound talents are on display.
I think kudos are due to the piano technician who tuned, voiced and regulated that beautiful instrument - and to the recording engineers who placed the microphones and set the piano/vocal balance. What a magnificent recorded sound!
My favorite composer…. But I have to mention that voice….like a cup of warm chocolate on a cold night…I’m 73 now and I have to thank GOD that I have lived long enough to witness the birth and development of this unique young man. Thank you Jacob. You’re just a lot special. ❤️❤️
Jacob Collier is a angel sent from heaven to a world filled with unrest and chaos, don’t let this pass you by, embrace the power and beauty of his music and let his light shine upon you ❤ pass it on to everyone ❤
His voice was always at that level, simply, he matured to show it more in it's raw form rather than harmonizing it all the time. He has done a few sessions like this one some dating from 2 or 3 years ago if I remember correctly, each and every one is particularly poignant. Having said that, just a comment as a vocalist... his voice is actually so on pitch, and the harmonics he produce are so perfect, that he sometimes sounds "flat" as in lacking dept to his voice. All of his harmonics rings perfectly true, it's almost lacking something, his technique is SO perfect that it sounds unnatural. He had the best vocal grades of the Royal College of Music in London. Of. All. Time. His voice is his GREATEST gift - he's starting to catch up on understanding this, that's all ;)
@@deljefferys3718 Sorry that an opinion upset you :\ What Jas said is absolutely true. He's a prodigy in all aspects, and yes, his vocal grades were the highest ever recorded.
@@jas_bataille As a vocalist I wouldn't agree that his technique is perfect :D Yes, he sings mostly perfectly in tune (not always, listen to the time when he sang with take 6), but singing techique isn't only having a good ear. He doesn't sound flat, just plain at times (like a choir boy) BUT it's perfect for his songs :)
JUST imagine this. We are now in our twenties. Following Jacob along his journey. When we have children, we’ll be listening to Jacob in tv or something taking over the world with his music. Seeing him grow. I would like that.
I started out 15 mins ago.and 1st 3 were the canned sounds background ( like 80s) not.my.taste. but his voice smooth.as silk.i.kept.trying others and just one found just him and piano...yesssss. Happiness.. I.now appreciate his talent....
Oh the little beauty. I am just so thankful I have the nous to be able to love and appreciate him, thank the lord and bless Jacob's wondrous soul for ever
Jacob Collier is the only musician who can improvise on the spot and somehow make it sound better every single time. It just keeps getting better and better. He is to powerful!
I'm crying involuntarily. Why? I haven't felt this way before, my chest is very light, my mind is at ease, just for now, i felt that .. Things are fine.
Mind blown at every musical turn. Music is choice and you're choices are strong. More than music for entertainment...music for life, growth, freedom, inspiration, change and love. I've been playing for 50+ years and am just happy I am still here to hear you. Thank you maestro. ❤🎹❤
In every sea there's a mouth of a river Where waterfall riches flow down Why do they cry? No one knows why In every mouth there's a word of forgiveness That melts all the ice to the ground Why do you sigh? I don't know why Why does the sky fall down Like pouring rain? To let it flow again Gonna make you feel alright Take your dreams, keep them out of sight Wanna make you come alive Close your eyes, keep you warm at night So come a little closer to me So many things I want you to see My darling In every laugh is the sorrow Of all of the tears that you've held for so long Would you make me cry? Oh, let me run dry In every tear are the eyes of a father And mother that brought you to see Sing lullaby As you say goodnight, night, night (Goodnight) Why do the stars look down (1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 and 10) And feel no shame (Counting up the droplets of the tears falling from the sky) When they are all the same? Gonna set your mind alight Keep you close to me and hold you tight Wanna keep you burning bright Take your words, shine them like a light So come a little closer to me (Come a little closer) So many things I want you to see (Many think I want you to see) My darling In every soul is the need to grow older To speed up the passing of time I don't know why But it makes me cry
I was just taking breakfast and I put my headphones on to check this. It's insane how I actually knew I was going to experience some highly important moment. That's a tradition now every time I go for a new song of Jacob. I honestly can't figure out how to make a proper line of ideas to somehow retrieve what I have just been given. I don't think the best poet could. Now I'm not eating the cereal anymore, I'm just crying in a way that I don't understand, but that liberates parts of myself I'm used to ignore, even though I know they're the essential and yet most unknown and mysterious pieces of my being. I can only say your creation gives this abyss of absurdity and suffering a bright light that stays in every one that listens to you. Thank you, Jacob.
Not even a minute in and I was already feeling tears welling. It’s like the title ‘make me cry’ is a challenge that he accepts 😂. The way he plays and the musical decisions he makes are so perfect, like the last verse where the lyrics are ‘in every soul there’s a need to grow older’. The fact that it was a capella highlighted those beautiful lyrics and he brings the piano back in after the perfect amount of pause. Not too long, not too short. This is one of my favourite performances I’ve heard him do, and that’s saying something!
@@davidpearson6346 lol the whole world is. Is there a chance you're hearing the curve of the temperament or the octave stretch? Any errors at this level of tuning is splitting hairs for the sake of being contrary. If you're interested (& not an RPT), check this video out: ruclips.net/video/1Hqm0dYKUx4/видео.html
Not only is Jacob Collier an INCREDIBLE musician he also seems to be a very down to earth, balanced and (in lack of more suitable words) smart guy. I've read some comments of his now, and his answers just seem so well thought out. (Pardon me my language. I'm no native english speaker and I'm having quite a hard time expressing myself right now.) Thank you, Jacob. You are truly an inspiration - both musically and in your aproach to and take on life in general. I somehow also hope you read this or that it in some other way find its way to you.
I was moved in joyful tears while first listening to this song. It’s such a great fusion between sentimentality and musicality. Thank you for projecting what you perceive through your music! Each song is like a weaved masterpiece!
There are more words than time to describe the genius of Jacob Collier. Ever since the first time I heard him I was knocked out and knew he is the Bach of our time. Hearing him in this intimate setting Voice and piano is so beautiful, raw and awe inspiring at the same time. Love It! Thanks for posting, it’s gorgeous!
Yes. This is when he communicates rather than makes music. I've always wanted more soul and less shimmer. The 600 logic tracks are bravura; this is bravissimo.
Magical! I couldn't take my eyes and my ears of him....He sings beautifully, his voice is tender and precious. I fall in love with him...He plays the piano so, so well with love and passion. He's incredible. This is magnificent. I don't have words...It's splendic! Magical. I love it.
He is astounding. Brilliantly played and sung, dipping down to the perfect intonation of that low note, and soaring to the high notes, like a bird. I suspect he has perfect pitch. Genius, Jacob is.
Hi Jacob! Looking forward to seeing you in Montreal! Id love to know how your collab with Lianne La Havas came to be and when we'll hear it? Im a huge fan of both of you. :) Thanks for all the beautiful music!
so, jacob. ¿how will you resume your singing technique? because sometimes is a little breathy and i think you lost support here and there. Greetings from Tucumàn, Argentina.
Why do you make me cry when I listen to you? - so piercing is the beauty in these harmonies, it wakens my spirit in an invisible explosion of musical colors. Your music is mind blowing.
How do you retain the focus to so intimately articulate the deepest truths of the human experience in the face of the the most attractive distractions our species has ever experienced?
There's a lot of talk about talent these days. Most people aren't talented, they are skilled. (nothing wrong with that btw!! And something to be in awe of) This dude however.. Isn't just skilled. He is mega talented. He just oozes music from every pore. He is music personified!!!
Yeah, I think in spite of how unbelievable his gorgeous vocal harmonies and arrangements on other songs have been, this just might be my favorite performance of his.
I started thinking "what Disney song is this" but then I remembered it's his own song. Man, this guy has such an awesome and unique vibe. I really like it
Jacob, you know what, you are the most impossible human on earth. You have a perfect pitch, you play most of the instruments (the hardest once to learn), you compose your own songs, you edit your music videos, like man, WHO ARE YOU??? I LOVE YOU TO THE MOON AND BACK. 🥰❤
This song literally brings tears to my eyes. I don’t know why, but on my worst days I listen to this and it makes me cry but it makes the day a little better.
Jacob, I reckon you spend a majority of the hours every day creating. How do you make time for relationships with other people and not lose focus on your work?
Hey Jacob, My deepest gratitude for your music. I'm continuously spreading the word among my friends after having seen you live twice already. ;) I want to ask you - are you genuinely happy in life? What's the most important thing that gives you strength and confidence? Cheers and hopefully see you on stage soon, Niklas
I am so glad I found Jacob on Tiny Desk - I fell in love with his music and sheer brilliance. I’m completely stoked to be able to see him at the Hollywood Bowl in September. Counting down the weeks ❤

So your saying you wanted to get played?
I always wondered if people who watched legends perform, like Mozart or Beethoven, knew they were watching something timeless and groundbreaking. Watching Jacob made me sure that at least some of them did.

Hi Tiago.
Time will tell but odds are weak that you could witness both the man alive and his upcoming legendary dimension.
@@mackdaddy8739 Yes. It took me some time to fully understand what he was doing when I first listened to it. But the more I dig into his creative process, the more I see that he is approaching music in ways that no really one did before. And he's pushing a lot of boundaries. And that's really hard to do nowadays.
Agreed- he’s a musical genius, hands down. Tiny Desk is also fantastic, check it!
@@davefigthe3rd for now
"In every soul is the need to grow older
To speed up the passing of time
I don't know why
But it makes me cry"
His lyrics are as mesmerizing and measured. Deliberate and delicate. Intentional and incidental. We are but witnesses to his genius.
@@miltonpound763 peepee and poopoo
meaning his music is the shit
my favorite line
Yes. His lyrics are moving, just fabulous. I remember in the song With the love in my heart by Jacob, there is a line says “ keep in motion, stay unspoken, if I’m broken, keep me open.” I was like oh mannn
@@harishkrishnan7180 I was like: "...meaning his music is shit? bruh why would you write th- OH WAIT THE SHIT AAAA"
Sweet Jesus, I want to *eat* that piano sound.
I've never heard a piano sound so lush in my life.
I'm so happy to see so many people commenting on how gorgeous the piano sounds. Of course, Jacob's playing and singing are brilliant, but the piano is like another person there.
My favourite instrumental
Sound. A piano is an amazing creation. Google making a Steinway... such craft.
The pianos with the nice soft low end timbre bring me joy
Can Jacob do an album like this? I would listen to it so hard.
I know, right? I'd be first to preorder that album....just him and a piano. I think his musical genius really shines even brighter in these live performances - this, the last Mahogany session, Hide and Seek, Hallelujah, even the Snarky Puppy collab.

Absolutely. I was hoping to see the name of the piano, thinking it must be a Steinway. His playing and singing are brilliant.
@@jillsalkin7389 It's a Steinway Model D, The tone gives it away.
Nah, its a Yamaha CF3s
@@emiliogeremia_ I thought the warmth yet the clearness gave it away that it's a Steinway
@@eikariofficial Nagh, I have the yamaha at my house its the same one
All the lonely chords that never get much attention, can thank Jacob for him taking them in and hanging out with them.
My favorite composer…. But I have to mention that voice….like a cup of warm chocolate on a cold night…I’m 73 now and I have to thank GOD that I have lived long enough to witness the birth and development of this unique young man. Thank you Jacob. You’re just a lot special. ❤️❤️
Saw the Crocs, do you wear them in defense or attack mode?
Sports mode is my fave.
Attack mode ftw
Single FIre or Full Auto
They seem OP
passive agressive mode
Has anyone else noticed Jacob's use of silence and space lately? It is soooo powerful and effective!
The music is in the silence
As Bill Evans did. Making the music breathe ❤
@@devadattan🙏
Jacob Collier is a angel sent from heaven to a world filled with unrest and chaos, don’t let this pass you by, embrace the power and beauty of his music and let his light shine upon you ❤ pass it on to everyone ❤

Also is it ... pouring rain in that room? There's at least water all over the floor
@@DaveTrotterDave Yeah I guess that was for aesthetic purposes.
Jacob can literally play one chord and it will sound like the whole heaven

The original is even better
You mainstream hound

He succeeded! He made us cry!
I'm crying involuntarily. Why?
I haven't felt this way before,
my chest is very light,
my mind is at ease,
just for now, i felt that ..
Things are fine.
That my friend is the feeling of home. Heaven's Peace that surpasses all understanding 💙
peace, it’s funny how remarkable it feels since we so rarely actually feel it
Jacob has done that to me multiple times before
I dont have any questions I'm just here crying over how great your voice is thanks
The original is even better
Your not the only one...
Singers like this turn music back into an art. Passion, uniqueness, creativity. You don’t see that a lot now days
Hey, Mahogany, PLEASE release this session on all the streaming platforms, it's absolutely perfect
Mind blown at every musical turn. Music is choice and you're choices are strong. More than music for entertainment...music for life, growth, freedom, inspiration, change and love.
I've been playing for 50+ years and am just happy I am still here to hear you.
Thank you maestro.
❤🎹❤
The More I hear the more I enjoy
No, man. It's YOU who makes me cry.
The truly amazing thing about Jacob is that he can perform this song in 50 different ways, all of them sounding like a masterpiece
That piano sounds like dark whiskey chocolate melting in a billionaire’s soft palate
In every sea there's a mouth of a river
Where waterfall riches flow down
Why do they cry?
No one knows why
In every mouth there's a word of forgiveness
That melts all the ice to the ground
Why do you sigh?
I don't know why
Why does the sky fall down
Like pouring rain?
To let it flow again
Gonna make you feel alright
Take your dreams, keep them out of sight
Wanna make you come alive
Close your eyes, keep you warm at night
So come a little closer to me
So many things I want you to see
My darling
In every laugh is the sorrow
Of all of the tears that you've held for so long
Would you make me cry?
Oh, let me run dry
In every tear are the eyes of a father
And mother that brought you to see
Sing lullaby
As you say goodnight, night, night (Goodnight)
Why do the stars look down (1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 and 10)
And feel no shame (Counting up the droplets of the tears falling from the sky)
When they are all the same?
Gonna set your mind alight
Keep you close to me and hold you tight
Wanna keep you burning bright
Take your words, shine them like a light
So come a little closer to me (Come a little closer)
So many things I want you to see (Many think I want you to see)
My darling
In every soul is the need to grow older
To speed up the passing of time
I don't know why
But it makes me cry
Thank you!

Thank you star that fell on the earth for us, to bring healing.
I wish the world become like your music, peacefully moving.
Thank you so much for your beautiful gifts.
The sound hits you right in your chest, now I know what magic sounds like💫
Probably one of the earthlings who can save the world! I sometimes wonder he is a product of Earth, he is so universal!
Pregnant mama here (on mother's day), thanking God, appreciating life and this has me thinking heavy/deep for sure... Need my hubbie to hear this
Jacob is a god. He doesn't need excessive reverb and mixing, its just feels unauthentic
There is so much technical difficulty yet it seems so free and natural, what an artist 😍
It's so beautiful!! Keep these beautiful arrangements and songs coming to us. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

43 people must not like Crocs... cause it's impossible to not be completely awestruck by this performance. Amazing Mr. Jacob Collier... long time fan!
gUYS HE HAS CROCS ON.
I cannot express in words how much I love this man 😂😂😂
Hahaha, I had to go back and replay the video just to see that 😂
This is the most beautiful feeling

Mastery is so often displayed in what you don’t play.
He is astounding. Brilliantly played and sung, dipping down to the perfect intonation of that low note, and soaring to the high notes, like a bird. I suspect he has perfect pitch. Genius, Jacob is.
Jacob will be answering your questions in the comment section a little later today - so get your questions in now!
is Jacob an actual angel?
When you play this song, what colours do you see?
Your an inspiration dude, tell us what pass through your mind when you're doing your thing?
Hi Jacob! Looking forward to seeing you in Montreal! Id love to know how your collab with Lianne La Havas came to be and when we'll hear it? Im a huge fan of both of you. :) Thanks for all the beautiful music!
so, jacob. ¿how will you resume your singing technique? because sometimes is a little breathy and i think you lost support here and there. Greetings from Tucumàn, Argentina.
Amazing! A chord from Jacob makes me appreciate life even on the darkest of days.

jacob's music makes me feel something I've never felt before and I want to live in it forever
I am bowing as you take your bow. Beautiful Jacob.
3:42-3:47 that riff is just so precious with the timbre of his voice oh my God.
There's a lot of talk about talent these days.
Most people aren't talented, they are skilled. (nothing wrong with that btw!! And something to be in awe of)
This dude however.. Isn't just skilled. He is mega talented.
He just oozes music from every pore. He is music personified!!!
ive just started crying while listening, like sobbing my heart out. thank you jacob. you are out of this world!!
Yeah, I think in spite of how unbelievable his gorgeous vocal harmonies and arrangements on other songs have been, this just might be my favorite performance of his.
Jacob out here looking like an art teacher
Jacob is teaching us and he helps us to grow through his Music.
i wish this version released in LP 😢
The way Jacob writes and performs music makes me want to cry from the bliss and happiness it makes me feel. Something like that.
I started thinking "what Disney song is this" but then I remembered it's his own song. Man, this guy has such an awesome and unique vibe. I really like it
listenning this song on 2020
imagine legends from the romanticism piano watching this, He is blowing my mind with those softly chords
Jacob, you know what, you are the most impossible human on earth. You have a perfect pitch, you play most of the instruments (the hardest once to learn), you compose your own songs, you edit your music videos, like man, WHO ARE YOU???
I LOVE YOU TO THE MOON AND BACK. 🥰❤
This song literally brings tears to my eyes. I don’t know why, but on my worst days I listen to this and it makes me cry but it makes the day a little better.
Jacob, you're a magical, beautiful alien.
This is the second track I have heard from this guy and I am blown away. Stunning. Pure love.
I don't know why, but Jacob Collier make me cry with joy
He is brave and has a very big heart. I am so glad we are contemporaries.
This song it’s the only reason to have RUclips music, this and the latest Jacobs Tiny Desk.
Jacob, I reckon you spend a majority of the hours every day creating. How do you make time for relationships with other people and not lose focus on your work?
Easy- create music with people.
@@ajesco Oh! Genius! :)
Every genius who ever walked the Earth had to face the same dilemma, so I doubt even Jacob would have the perfect answer, but A J is probably right :)
It makes me cry..i hardly do that so thank you jacob collier. Need more of this style please. Its so therapeutic.
This is the most unique thing I have heard in a long time.
Jesus Christ, our Lord, thank You for Jacob Collier!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He is the most amazing artist of present time. I wonder what he is gonna do in future, that would be mind blowing.
Why can’t this be a subgenre of pop seriously I want to hear this on the radio like it’s nothing lol
Hey Jacob,
My deepest gratitude for your music. I'm continuously spreading the word among my friends after having seen you live twice already. ;)
I want to ask you - are you genuinely happy in life? What's the most important thing that gives you strength and confidence?
Cheers and hopefully see you on stage soon,
Niklas
One of the best musicians on the face of this planet
This is so beautiful it hurts me.
I am so glad I found Jacob on Tiny Desk - I fell in love with his music and sheer brilliance. I’m completely stoked to be able to see him at the Hollywood Bowl in September. Counting down the weeks ❤
Et voilà que un ange est descendu parmi nous et on ne le savait pas.....magnifique
Greatest thing I've ever done is discover Jacob's music I can't believe I've went as long as I did without hearing this master musician!
