This is one of the most Jacob videos I've ever watched
Chloé Nanian he agrees with you !
Makes me dislike these « modern » clips... it’s a celebration of music. Jazz music and more. Jacob does that
So wholesome. Never thought I'd hear the samba sound like that
Jacob you are gold. You know that don't you?
maybe you forget Mon Revoir (Moon River)
He did himself the edition. I love this!
Jacob Collier: "Yes"
Producer: "But I haven't even said anyth-"
Nice take on a worn-out meme.
@@tornoutlaw agree
So damn true... Killed me bro 😂
because he is the producer tho :D
Well, he got the year 😂
Congrats Jacob on a such a fun video & truly fresh & original cover of Lionel Richie's classic. Wonderful, thank you for sharing and putting a smile on our lips. Cheers
These chord progressions are so crazy that my brain is inventing new emotions from listening.
hahahahahahahah
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
Hahahahha
HAHAHA LEGIT
Yeah. Haha. But it is absolutely true. Our ‘normal’ brain can’t process this without coming with new emotions. This is what happened to the people in Bach’s time. How to process a genius? I don’t know, but I feel a lot of happiness.
He's run out of musical instruments to learn, now watch him master the entire Adobe creative suite.
Tim Brade thank you for this 😄
I didn’t see any tabla drums.
my thoughts exactly
@@asgrides4499 he replaced them with the box of spoons
🤣🤣🤣🤣 exactly! this guy does everything at alien status level #notofthisworld
As a 63 yo jazz pianist & music theory teacher, this is obviously the musician I wish to be when I grow up... OBSESSED 💯🎉⭐🙌🎼🎵🎶🎹🎶🎵
What is a dominant chord. Please help me😂
@@chancemiller6552 Think of it as a chord you use to travel back to the tonic chord.
@@shorty-music-123 what books do u recommend for music theory as an introduction?
@@chancemiller6552 take a major 7th chord and just flat the 7th so:
C E G B (cmaj7) becomes
C E G Bb (c7) :)
Root - Major 3rd - Perfect 5th - Minor 7th
@@alphievalenzuela3316 ooo ok that makes a lot of sense thank u man
Every time I watch this video (and it's a lot), I smile all the way through. His music just lifts my spirit. You can see how he's just loving it. What a joy! ❤
I love everything about this!❤
I don't even have enough musical ability to appreciate this enough
Very few people do...negative harmony, microtonal harmony...i feel like that's some music theory PhD type shit lol..I wouldn't even know where to begin learning
@@4842396 well that's a bit comforting
i dont think that matters man, alot of music gets gatekept when it’s just meant to be enjoyed. even though jacob is incredibly talented doesnt mean you cant appreciate it «enough». as long as you’re enjoying it and having fun! :D
This is why I find his music irritating sometimes. You need a PhD in order to appreciate it. Sometimes it just sounds silly, but makes complete sense for music students.
@@oak1739 Is it his music, or the people who just like complex stuff for the sake of being complex ticking you a bit? I can kinda relate since I'm a fan of jazz and that attracts snobs like flies, but I don't think that sorta thing should discourage people from music.
As a brazilian, this is the most natural sounding representation of samba made by a foreigner I've ever seen.
C tem q escutar Noite/Lua, dele. Boa parte da Lua é cantada em português (de Portugal, mas fica bonito igual) e é uma musica muito tipo brasileira. É incrivel
meudeus eu to mt feliz de ter outros brasileiros q tbm escutam ele
Tava pensando exatamente a mesma coisa
@@danielstudart2062 Concordo 100% (sou de Portugal)
Pero solo son ~30 segundos y solo un ritmo
That voice coming out of that person throws me for a loop every time. I don’t know why but it just doesn’t match what I am expecting.
I love what Jacob does with this song. It is truly mesmerizing.
5:06 BRUDDAAAA THIS PART ! bLEWWW MY MIND
The day Jacob get sad, Im afraid of what type of music he is gonna make
Oh damn... I want to hear it. I want to know what it feels like to experience true spiritual death while still alive.
@@AlfredEiji Honestly I don't think he'd have it in him. It's like wanting to know what it would be like if Miles Davis made a 4/4 pop punk track.
i think it in his song "balm"
i doubt he'd be mega sad, but he can get sad, if it is the bad sad, then id personally love to hear it musically, especially with his microtonal power, he can RELALY do some crazy stuff!
In the real early morning has some sad vibes, made me cry the first time i listened to it. resolves in a content way though. Jacobs music always has that hope in it, the love to know it's going to be OK.
Man aren't we just lucky to have Jacob in our generation??!
Absolutely! Every generation has its geniuses. Jacob is definitely one of this generation's musical and visual geniuses.
People are going to be analyzing this guy's entire career for generations to come, mark my words
Me: I know how to play a piano too!
JC: cool. But I know how to play a TAKE 6. Ever played 6 instruments at once?
Me: *backs away*
yes
And Tigran Hamasyan, check him out too
Diese Genialität wünsche ich mir in der Politik und Medizin.... Es gäbe keine Kriege und Hunger mehr.... Musik im Einklang mit der Seele.... Das anhören ist wie eine Liebeserklärung.....
Today, on a day I consider to be the first day of the 5th lifetime within a lifetime that I live and I only heard this piece by you at 5ish pm in Oz.
Lionel recorded and released one is the most I influential pieces of pop history with All Night Long at a time when I was just beginning to find out who I am and I couldn't think of a better anthem for that period of my life.
I'm 58, I'm a child of Disco, I'm an HIV+ survivor of a war still being carried out against my community and you are bringing together the best kind of "army" (yeah, I hate it too) to push back this last gasp of the 19th & 20th Century "old guard" that have always tried and always failed to hold back the human spirit.
Sing Hallelujah!! (90s dance classic) and let the Rhythm of the Night (another 90s masterpiece) carry us all forward!!! Dance my Children, DANCE!!!
Jacob Collier's videos are like the "1% Skill, 99% Editing" videos except they're 100% skill and 100% editing
hahahaha pls make this top comment hahahahahaha
That would make it 50% skill, 50% editing.
@@sonosofisms ok professor mathematician
@@sonosofisms 100% humor, and 100% WOOSH!
@@davidseow7617Fuck the video, too many videomakers in this planet. This young musician is a genius and it's enough. Maybe it's already too much...
I'm calling it. He's going to win another 2 Grammys
and your were right1
Ah-may-zing
And he did.
Hey man, can I grab next week's lottery numbers? Thanks in advance.
@@JCDawghound 7 3 6 2 5 1
What a MASTERPIECE OF INGENUITY!!! You're truly blessed in sooo many ways and so full of fun and love. Thank you so very much for the fruits of your labours, that you give as presents of joy and empathy to mankind, Jacob.
This guy is the epitome of the phrase "high on life".
is that a new street name for a Meth-Cocaine blend?
wait he modulated through the entire circle of fifths
Jacob you are insane
Didn't notice at all
I call that the long boi giant steps
No he's having fun at a party all night long.
I did not notice that. Sneaky construction.
He goes from D to Ab through the circle of 5ths which is backwards from progressions which move counter clock wise in a falling 5ths motion... He was modulating so it works!
Wow!!!! What a song is tha???? Amazing, incredible, perfect!!! Thanks for the Samba... It was awesome!!!!
Another great performance from today's Mozart!
You know Jacob is a true musician when he lists every single instrument and performer on the credits. You're a great man, mr Collier.
Did he list the grammy he's banging on at 2:35? :-p
And a bit of a show off, I might add... :-)
Isn't that the norm?
@@samplayssax Likely one of them used a sub at sometime during the process. Professional musicians do that all the time when they have a conflict. And they credit everyone involved.
It's Quite easy when he's more than half the instrumentalists too...
I love the fact that EVERY SINGLE MUSICIAN is listed and credited!!
To include his mother
I suspect that Vladimir Nikolov had a great deal of work to do.
Thanks for notifying this .... it's really great that everybody is credited this way!!
George Gershwins face was shown for less than half a second and he got credited lol
^^^^
This is a hell of a video
no comments????
ikr
well the video isn't the most impressive thing tbh
can you make a music sheet version of this song?
here before 500 replies and 12k likes
It’s not just the crazy chords and crazy talent. It’s how much he LOVES this song and how much he loves his friends. Feels pure.
Truly
So what instrument do you play?
Jacob: Everything and SPOONS
and my Grammy
and an empty popcorn tin 0:30
Jacob: Yes.
Best comment tbh
Och aye...whit aboot the bagpipes, laddie? ha! got ya... Doug McKendrick
This is lit.
First time I used the word. Was saving it for a special occasion.
Are you everywhere? From Medtner videos to Collier; you have great taste!
Austin Workman true!! I saw him everywhere!
So are you in this case ;)
Hm...
wow there are other people who like medtner and collier? where's your secret clubhouse
Watching Jacob dance in a street with a massive smile and an oversized shirt brings me so much joy.
Faith in the future of music restored.
I'm jealous of every musician that gets to be involved in Jacob's music, because they all always look like they're having an absolute blast.
math the bro is a master... I mean even Vai appeared in the clip 🤯🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾
The fact that at 5:12 he played the melody to Fascinating Rhythm is insane.
Jacob had now reached the point where he can wield the power of N O S T A L G I A
🇾 🇪 🇸 🇭 🇪 🇩 🇴 🇪 🇸
He’s not a one man band, he’s a one man orchestra, in a league of his own. The man is music itself. He’s been inspired by many but he’ll be an inspiration to musicians for centuries to come. Keep doing your thing Jacob ✌🏼❤️🎵🎶
Almost 50 years of playing the piano, keys, guitars, drums, releasing music, feeling pretty good about myself and then HE comes along.. Joes aside. Just WOW oh WOW. Superb.
😂👍🏻
"What if pop music was actually jazz except it was actually rap except it was actually just a crowd of 1,000 people singing every note of every imaginable scale at the same time"
Jacob: "you are beginning to understand the first verse of the song. Good. Now let's move on to the pre-choruses. There are twelve. And then the chorus."
Jacob: And then we get to the polyrhythms. We'll worry about the two quarter tone modulatoons later.
😁
What rap do you listen to?
@@omarjaber3531 lol thats what i was thinking
No one:
Jacob Collier : "wiggle wiggle wiggle!"
Absolute genius!
we have reached normie levels that shouldn't even be possible
I'm fairly convinced that Jacob is from another planet.
I would love to see a video of Lionel Richie reacting to this.
Everybody: What key is this song in?
Jacob: Yes.
Haha I saw this everywhere but where does this come from?
That sounds easy: it's in twelve keys. Wait. No. More. Damn.
Key of F. (Sorry but this qn has an answer.)
sieteocho umm at some point, but if u listen to the whole song it’s more than that
sieteocho like there’s a bit in Ab major, thanks perfect pitch
IT'S TAKE SIX!!!! Nobody was commenting about it. Vocal legends and a big influence on Jacob Collier.
Yes, they are!!! Thank you for notice that!
They really are legends and seeing them doing a collab with him makes me extremely happy
This was my introduction to them:
ruclips.net/video/zRfcMn1TVAM/видео.html
Holy crap, it’s really them! I love Take 6, and one of my first thoughts on discovering JC’s vocal arrangements was “sounds like Take 6.”
I KNEW IT!!!!!
I got introduced to Jacob Collier's music tonight❤ words cannot express how blessed I feel to listen to his genius, watch his energy and the vibe he generates. Please come to South Africa 🇿🇦
If Jacob were a Tolkien character, he would have to be Tom Bombadil: fearless and all joy.
The ending scene is literally how I picture Jacobs life, him just running around like a goof creating geniusical amazing music! Thank you Jacob
Geniusical.
here for that term
GENIUSICAL
Dude made a 64 piece choir portion of himself all singing different parts for a chord in this song on top of the other stuff. Dude deserves his own Grammy category.
Actually just 16
He copy-pasted them
But he's still an amazing Turn-of-the-century artist
Yes
The dude is the Shrek of music, they gotta make a category for him just to give him an award.
Is that Take 6 singing with him?
Yeah it is
Showed this to my father, he's an old man, a musician and I never seen him smiled like that again (to something related to music) in these covid times. I honestly wanted to cry while playing this to him. It's one of the precious moments I needed. I just want to thank you and your music. You're the best!
So glad I'm on the earth at the same time as Jacob Collier. Definitely in a league of his own, I can not stop listening!
"Arranged, orchestrated, recorded, mixed, produced by Jacob in Logic Pro X" boyyyyyyyyyyy
Oh, boy! Mastered too.
Ok?
I don't get it?
Brad Rice So?
That and much much more! 😁
And performed
I think even MUSIC could learn a thing or two from this guy
I have to learn this song by tomorrow.
I'm gonna listen to it all night long
Ahahaha Nice one
This video pretty much sums up what the life of a musician is like. Sometimes you’re at home playing on your own. Sometimes you’re among lots of people making music together. And sometimes you’re in a field with a friend having fun with a drone 😄
Q. How do you know when you have made it in the music business?
A. When Quincey Jones and Steve Vai are in your music video and their only job is holding stuff up for the camera.
OMG!! lol! You're so right!!!
ruclips.net/video/kz1znPWQ42o/видео.html
😂😂😂😷😷🤣🤣🤣❤️🙏🏼❤️
It's a bit like Marcel Marceau being the only person to speak in Mel Brooks "Silent Movie".
Where?!
Jacob Collier was born not only to be a musical genius but to run free in meadows.
The way he flexes his range at 3:58 is just insane. Guy is a legend.
I don’t think any AI could ever replace this man’s genius.
You’d be surprised one day if you live long enough
@@coleabrahams9331 I know that AI can be reeeeally powerful, but thinking outside the box like Jacob is difficult if not impossible even for other humans. Maybe it Will emulate him
F**** AI. It'll never reach this kind of heart based deepness because it's just plain and simple a programmed copy-cat of human ingenuity, and this human genius will always be many steps ahead of AI because of its ever evolving SPIRIT.
Ai would dominate this song. With 15 uear old technology
No way! Artificial Intelligence isn't intelligent enough!
#Grammys winner!
BEST ARRANGEMENT, INSTRUMENTS AND VOCALS

All Night Long

In 2017, Collier was awarded two Grammys for his arrangements of "Flintstones" and "You And I", both from the album.

5:14 , that reference to ''Fascinating rhythm '' along with a picture of George Gershwin though.. GOLD
Only true fans can understand this
I knew that picture came up for a reason.
I'm catching up... I only just discovered Jacob Collier a few months ago, and I now have him on my Alexa and my phone and can't get enough of this amazing joyful heartful pure soul of a Young Man! I truly feel that he is an ambassador of love light happiness and joy❣️🌞‼️✌️‼️👌🎉🥳🙌👏👏🙌🤩🎵🎶✨️

@@BarryWarne , no he's just happy
The understatement of the century.
Magnifique vie !
You’re such a genius, Jacob Collier! Love your creativity and voice! Love this arrangement of All Night Long!
This song just got nominated for a grammy. Can't help but feel bad for the other artists who were nominated in the same category :)
and Won!
In the future musicians will withdraw when JC gets nominated. 😁
I am 58, I am happy that there is a 25 year young guy, who is opening my ears and my eyes for quite a while now, and deconstructing a more or a less a bit cheesy pop tune of my youth into a remarkable form of art.
I'm about the same age as you, and the emergence of Mr. Collier is the answer to my wish to never say that young people don't appreciate real music. This guy is not only phenomenally gifted, but seems also to be modest, approachable and generous to both his fellow musicians and audience. I will now be able to grow old in the knowledge that the future of music is assured.
I am 51 and feel the same...God bless you JC. Big hug from JC.
It was already a brilliant piece if music from the mind of a great artist. Jacob did his spin on it. When Jacob makes his OWN songs and they chart, then he will be on the same creative footing as Lionel Richie
@@RichardHaynie I mean he's making his own songs and earning Grammy noms. 😂
@@RichardHaynie Charting doesnt mean good music though
0:52 Wow Jacob flipped everyone off and no one even knew for years.
I just wish I could keep pressing the LIKE button ad infinitum!

Oh that's who that was! I was like, who's that old lady holding the second sign, somebody's mom maybe? 🥴
weird flex, but ok. :D
I literally screamed when I saw steve vai and he didnt even contribute anything musically 😂 I love steve
Quincy Jones is one of his mentors
@@emilyj3996 he plays on one (or more, idk) of the songs in djesse vol 2, and I think Jacob just got a bunch of different contributors to help out (same with how he's got like a hundred different people singing at the start of Moon River)
After 1000 times hearing this piece, i'm pretty proud to say i feel able to do an analysis of the... 8 first seconds.
i'm playing the game of "spot the musical references" in this cover and i'm obsessed.
unbelievable talent... amazing... i have no words
MCU: Endgame is the best crossover ever
Jacob: Hold my harmony
Only the normies liked this comment
I laughed so high
I WAS BORN IN THE WRONG GENERATION!
Jacob is the Mozart of THIS generation. This kid is amazing! I get so happy when I watch anything he performs.
The passion he puts into his collaborations and the way he handles himself so proudly, its inspirational and I cant help but smile.
Noooot mozart, is not so good...
Jacob,
I am a musician, keyboardist, pianist and music producer with visual impairment here in Brazil. I came to your channel on the recommendation of my music teacher, who spoke very well of you.
What spectacular ideas of arrangement, my friend!
What a beautiful thing.
You’re literally a genius.
He managed to make a sensational arrangement at the height of the song.
You are living proof of how it is possible to be creative and listen to songs like this (known) in a different and fun way.
I vibrated a lot at the moment the solo of metals, piano and bass appears. It gave me a pleasant feeling of joy, happiness, ecstasy....
Very good indeed, fantastic!
And those "take 6" voices? Just great.
I’m still looking for decent samples of voices like that for my keyboard.
Who knows, all of a sudden, we’re partnering to create a realistic take 6 sample with expressive joints like vibratos, etc.
Already imagining the next arrangement for the song "Cidade Maravilhosa" (anthem of the city of Rio de Janeiro) in Jazz... :)
All the success in the world for you. I’ve become your fan!
Fantastici..... 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
"That guy is like, obnoxiously good at music." -Adam Neely
🍻
which video did he say that?
@@nuclearsake3887 I could be wrong, but I believe that the quote is in either the video talking about 9/8, or the video talking about Scotch Snaps, OR the video referring to drunk drumming.
All I'm sure of is that Adam was referring to separating bars into seven beats when Jacob Collier's "With The Love In My Heart" was featured.
@@nuclearsake3887 drunk drumming
So happy Adam Neely introduced me to him
A visual representation describing the definition of the word "FUN." Jacob is a pure flow of joy - so grateful for his gift, presence, and contribution.
That is the theme of the song. Would be weird if its not.
on top of everything he can do, and everything he knows, he seems like a genuinely nice person.
As unbelievably good as this is, did anyone else notice the not so subtly tribute to Quincy? Exquisite touch.
just caught it!
Yes, several Quincys, and Herbie, and George, and Lionel, and Steve... His artistry and respect for his influences is exquisite, indeed.
Yes! "Q" with a playful grin holding up the chord changes! Beyond Beyyyyond!
Music aside, this man is absolutely living THE MOST OPTIMAL HUMAN EXPERIENCE aka his absolute best possible life
That's what I was thinking while watching this
Had the same thought as well. It's a rare thing to exist and even more rare to exist in your own timeline.
How would you know that?
@@solideomusical the joy on his face! His love for exploration, travelling and meeting all of his heroes etc.
@@emanx222 Could be but this is a RUclips video intended to project that. I actually hope you are right but I sometimes wonder if he is 'high on life' or on something else.
I'm Korean, and I cannot understand all of the lyrics, but I can feel pure delight and creativity in this video. your musical world is insane..
There's not much to understand, in fact. The basic idea is: "We are going to have a party all night." There are also a lot of nonsense words in it, so it's not surprising you didn't get their meaning.
Jacob has said before that lyrics aren't his main priority when writing songs, since the music itself is so complex. So, in a way, it makes his music easier for everyone to appreciate, which is what I love about him.
@@Bouncybon some of the lyrics are from other languages, karamu is from Swahili!
Lionel Ritchie 's song
@@inji9426 this is a Lionel Ritchie 's song
Wahhhhh Take6.....The Boy is a UFO....Genius
While musical tastes might differ, I hope everyone can feel the pure unbridled joy coming from Jacob and the rest of the people involved here. This is a song that praises the joy of being alive in a way more genuine and innocent than any song I can think of at the moment. It deserves to be played in church.
Funny thing , this: I was getting big "Hallelujah: A Soulful Celebration" vibes off this. And of all the African Diaspora music represented on that album, I'm not sure which cut this could (near-)twin with, if "twin" it could.
Solid! Brava!
Mmm relax. In church everything is about Glorifying God. Not life. Not man.
It deserves to be put away and forgotten just like church^^.
@@letmebreakitdown2u152 thanks for breaking it down.
@@letmebreakitdown2u152 Hard disagree..... God's fine, there's nothing we can do to glorify God besides celebrating the gift of life and appreciating where it came from- and helping others to do so
My mind just can’t comprehend how fucking incredible he is. He arranged, produced, mixed, orchestrated and recorded everything. He’s a literal genius.
Don'y forget the video editing :)
It's an awesome arrangement but a cover song :)
This sounds like shit. No longer a song. But a forced juxtaposition of sounds and unsettling key changes.
@@newagain9964 nah
Mozart was not a genius because he could play instruments at the age of 5, but because of his own original melodies. He wrote 600 original pieces that will never be forgotten. Jacob is an extraordinary musician but he’s not pushing the music scene further, he is recreating songs with advanced arrangements, but I cannot think of one song of his that could be called as a genius melody that will never be forgotten. You don’t have to be a genius to do genius music. I hope He realises that soon and starts doing something original and innovative.
5:04 That solo is astonishing! WOW!
i love how jacob emphasizes the fun in music & the way it brings people together, regardless of common perception of what type of musician or sound is "proper" for what genre. the clips of the chorus just jamming while singing brings such a smile to my face. can never get through a song or video without feeling the most wholesome sense of love for music. :)
it's the first time I see a foreigner actually doing samba well, you're amazing Jacob
My favourite part is when he "forgets" what song he's playing and dives into a Jackson 5 classic. Throwing that in was easy enough, but the "save" when he leads it back to the song he's supposed to be reversing through the circle of fifths is pure joy.
He also throws in a bit of Fascinating Rhythm by Gershwin at 5:13
This dude mastered social distancing before social distancing.
It's called being "AHEAD" of time.
Vrienda Ganguly what
@@ifusubtomepewdiepiewillgiv1569 musician joke 😂 “time” is of the essence in music if you know what I mean
I didn’t even notice that this split screen format is unusual for the time because it’s so normal now
I guess you never been to Reddit?
I'm so late but I haven't seen anyone mention that he has Take 6 (one of my favorite groups of all time) doing harmony with him. This went from epic to LEGENDARY!!! Love everything about this!!
Oh, I thought he was just diversity hiring to fill quota...lol turns out they are a legit bad ass group...I'm ignorant
They literally mentioned in the description every single musician involved, even the viola players (if you know what I mean). Legends!
Jacob is way beyond talented, he has all that musicality, the skills on all those instruments, coupled to a creative genius brain. What a joy for all of us to be able to enjoy it, for FREE even!!!
Totally agree with you there!
I agree, although it isn’t free. You see, you have paid in one way. You are no longer in control, not even of yourself. With his mad skills, Jacob Collier has coerced you into allowing the music to take control. Now, we will party all night long. Lol.
a rebirth of Prince
Those are some complicated polyrhythms in the starting there
Nothing is free, if you don't pay for something, you are the product
Jacob is just 25 and has 4 Grammy's. Insane and absolutely deserved
*earned - not deserved.
@@Rastasandrainbows That's the same thing?
Truly one of the most inspiring musicians alive today. Saw him live twice on his In My Room tour and it was incredible.
@@MrEysox same thing more swag
He might soon have 6...
Holy Crap that's Take 6...this is just like a brain massage...
I’m sure that the sheer talent and musical imagination of this man is probably way beyond the understanding of even the most accomplished musicians on earth, yet the thing about Jacob’s music is that the SHEER JOY he brings with it is accessible to EVERYONE - and utterly infectious! And then - as if that were not enough on its own - his incredible skill as a video editor/imagineer adds yet another DAZZLING dimension to his ability to communicate with all our sensibilities. For me, this rare and precious combination of mind-boggling skills makes Jacob’s astonishing arrangement/performance of “All night long” the closest thing to the definition of UNBRIDLED MUSICAL ELATION imaginable… Everyone - just FEEL the joy!
This kid is golden music heritage of a humankind. He is the most multitalented person I've ever heard or seen. I would say God bless you, Jacob, but you are already blessed. Keep going man. Keep going. There are no limits for you.
Words of truth and wisdom, German!
Absolute truth. He knows that music is happiness and he transmits it into our bones and souls!
Oh man if this guy is great, wait til you listen to FKJ :D
@@XinneH FKJ is a great guy, very talented human. But comparing him to Jacob is not knowing Jacob at all. My advice is to keep exploring Jacob's universe, till you get it. :) Have a nice day.
You misunderstand the difference between talent and skill. It's not as if he was gifted with the knowledge and the ability to do all he does. He worked his way to the top.
June lee starts working ALL NIGHT LONG
y'all know the song came out almost a year ago, right? I'm sure June Lee has been poking at it for a while :) ruclips.net/video/hwqY2ngnMnM/видео.html
Can you imagine the reactions of the musicians involved when they saw this video for the first time?
I love how the orchestra loved playing it. The smiles on their faces!!
music sounds better when the musicians have fun :)
They were paid to play something truly easy for them... enough to make a classically trained musician happy.
yessssss idd
@@ernestogasulla7763 hahahaha
3:57 His vocal range surprises me every time lol
It's not that he can sing that low and high, but that it still sounds strong as if every register was his primary one
He doesn't have vocal chords, he has a vocal harp haha
Crazy
He's got incredible sense of. Pitch and tuning... He does a master class showing one of his tunes on Logic where he shows U 1/4 tones on the note. C in back to back chords where the 2 C s are.. Quite a few cents different from each other and how it effects back to back chords
Iit blew me. Away... Who thinks of that besides Arabic and Indian composers
