    Jacob...
    After watching this once at work yesterday (and barely holding myself together), I decided that I'll hook this up to the living room screen and the sound system after dinner later that night and invite the family to watch/listen. My three teen/preteen kids usually wander off to their rooms or elsewhere in the house but I asked them to stick around. Everyone in the family knows the Coldplay original.
    So there we were, all five of us: myself, my wife, and the kids. There was a bit of whispered chatter between my daughters, the oldest and the youngest of the three, but it quickly died out when you started singing the first verse. My son, the middle child, was on his phone but immediately put it away, too.
    For six minutes after that there was an absolute pin drop silence in the room. At the end, my daughters were hugged together and in silent tears. My wife had snuggled up to me and she was a mess as well. My 16 year old son had his head in both hands, with a 'woah!' look on his face as he turned to me, while I was with watery eyes and smiling back at them all. A few long seconds passed until my youngest daughter, 12, whispered, "Please play it again."
    We watched it twice more. Everyone in the room will never forget that evening in a very, very long time.
    Thank you, sir.

    • @johningram2153
      @johningram2153 3 года назад

      Yeah, but that’s pretty consistent with the original. Based on where the key he chose sits on his register, he has the choice to sing this part really high or really low. And this time, he chose low. It’s not unusual to hear Jacob sing quite low, in a way that is accurate but maybe not hugely moving. I like it, but it’s not exceptional to me.

    • @hazzmando
      @hazzmando 3 года назад

      @@johningram2153 close with the terminology. On a stringed instrument a 'hammer on' is when you change your fringering on an already vibrating string to sound a higher note, i.e. hammering with your finger on the string. A 'pull off' is the opposite; you pull your finger off to sound a lower note. Doing a hammer on then pull off on a pair of notes is a 'trill'. 'Tapping' is hammer ons and pull offs without plucking the string first, and usually uses both hand on the neck of the instrument.
