Im kind of jealous of how he hears things or feels things, though i dont really know how he hears things or feels things, but it must be so very beautiful.
What an amazing comment! He is, indeed, a musical genuis. And we can't ever hope to see what he sees/hears/feels when he undertakes to present a piece of music to the world. But we can hear it - really hear it. And that will have to do.
@@sueweatherby8845I tend to subconsciously think of him as a Music Bender. Like Avatar: The Last Airbender, but for music. I was lucky enough to see him live, in a small venue where it was just him and his instruments (not even his looping rig.) It was this, but for ten songs, some of which he said he’d never performed live before - he seemed iffy on some lyrics even. He just decides to play, and his hands make it happen. The single best musical experience of my life. Like watching a master at work.
@@kojionkong7058 I love that it is unclear whether the comment was talking about the expressions of harmonic astonishment over the low note at 2:02, or the expressions of vocal astonishment over the low note at 7:31.
I never though of it that way but you're spot on. I was thinking of why he is so haunting, daunting, unlike anyone else. It's the gaps of silence. He hasthe guts to use the silence and not feel inclined to fill every gap I feel that is often what most musicians do with their instruments and voice and often they do too much, cluttering the piece.
Это просто невероятно! Это так трогает сердце и мои уши. Как здорово Бог одарил этого человека. Это же легенда, с которой мало кто может сравниться. Спасибо Якобу, спасибо Богу за щедрый дар, который мы слышим. Я думал, у меня бас. Нет, вот настоящий бас. При этом он ещё и сопрано, и повыше , чем многие сопрано поют. Какой невероятный диапазон! Голоса, инструментов, которыми он владеет, глубиной игры, мастерством звука, динамики, как тонко он трогает нотки души! Невероятно! Это может заставить плакать какого угодно! Спасибо
I mean, considering that he made Chris Martin cry, impress so much Quincy Jones, Steve Wonder, and many legends of music, his personal victories aren't so much dependent of opinions on YT comment section, so

It's simple really, he doesn't make pop music. He makes music simply for the sake of making art. He's not trying to hit the billboard charts or sell millions of albums to as many people as he can. He's just trying to make something that's new or interesting that'll make people think "oh, that was cool". If he wanted to, he could definitely make it big in the R&B and pop music scene while keeping his style but he doesn't need or care to.
The less notes you play, the more famous you are. The more notes you play, the less people listen or care. The world is upside down and unwell. Evil is good. Good is evil. He just shows you a mirror to your soul and so one asks these questions without realizing the answer is right there.
Tbh the level of fame he gets now is probably the most appropriate. If he gets any more famous the critics are gonna come in swarms. Which is to say, he pretty much already maxed out the population that can naturally appreciated his kind of music, the rest is down to music education of the public.
Oh Jacob, I worry about your posture. You can hunch over like that now, but you'll pay in a few years. It's our job to help you take care of your amazing gift! Be well and keep playing!
love that even he can be off by a few niticeable Hz sometimes i disagree with the title im convinced by my tearducts that the care version is exemplary in every isntance other than his low notes here which were hyperbolic as were his ending yodels
I think the CARE version is truly incredible - even more so as it was the first time he had played it on the piano. The touch, modulation and voicing all made it incredibly special.
This is not a version of Fix You. This is a decomposition of that music and a recomposing of it in a Jacob way. It is amazing but don’t expect a pop tune.

For me, this is lacking connection. He does too much. Some great bits but a lot of mush - technically, jazzy skilled but mush nevertheless. He's done better.
@@movemusepiano listened again for you 😊 I think it's excellent up till about 4'30". Then he begins to lose the connection with the song, edging into what becomes more of a technical performance. By 5'30" he's totally lost the song. Technically still great, but heart, feeling has flown out the window. Just a bit weirdy to be honest.
@@sheilamerritt8654 how is it emotion? Please say how you perceive that. It seems to me to lack that water quality, far more airy (4 element system), mind controlled, mechanical. An emotional performance would have different qualities, fluidity. He as a person seems to struggle with emotional expression, and substitute that with intellect. That's also in his music.

He translates it for us perfectly.
The music is not in the notes but the silence between the notes
1:58-2:03 when you hit em with a resolution fake-out and the crowd goes "ooohhhhhhh" like he laid down a fat bass drop
When I hear Jacob sing and play I have hope for us humans. This is how my soul would like to express itself in music.
I think it's the first time I've heard expressions of astonishment over a low note; these people really know about music.
His range is amazing, truly.
@@kojionkong7058 I love that it is unclear whether the comment was talking about the expressions of harmonic astonishment over the low note at 2:02, or the expressions of vocal astonishment over the low note at 7:31.
@@cjbprime at 2:02 are for unexpected chord resolution
Yeah, Barry White was cool too.
Most of Colliers fans know a lot about music. I swear his main demographic is music-students and instrument aficionados.

JC ALLOWS US THIS
JUST
THIS

this is why live music has my heart
This guy is a genius.
You, too. You used a hard and soft G in only 5 words.
5:58
Seriously amazing. When he started playing the piano, it sounded like the forest was whispering with the wind..
I mean, considering that he made Chris Martin cry, impress so much Quincy Jones, Steve Wonder, and many legends of music, his personal victories aren't so much dependent of opinions on YT comment section, so
Ya, I thought Chris tearing was like a click bait video... but it's legit. What an amazing rendition this is!!
We are witnessing something very, very special in Jacob Collier, and it's happening in our time.
Nah
Amazing, thanks for the upload 🤗
so immersed completely in his own joy, and doing, inspiring to watch from the first minutes
5:39 goosebumps

What did he just do there?
Thank you for connecting us to another world
This was truly a “be quiet let him work his magic” moment
lol I was starting to get annoyed at the beginning hearing people leading the lyrics while Jacob was going along at his own pace
I’m gonna get to see him in a couple weeks and I am STOKED!
Settle Down! You’re gonna have a Stoke
@@gisttyler too late, I 💀
How was it? :D
@@crazyking1575 it was awesome, probably in the top 5 shows I saw all weekend.
@@EllissDee4you4me Definitely one of the shows of all time! jk I get to see him June 2024, very excite!
amazing
He speaks 2 languages. His second language is English, and his first is music.
Awesome! Thanks for sharing how Jacob's rendition has escalated from playing a cover for Cancer awareness event, to this! o_O Brilliant!!
I just don't get why he isn't more famous. And he is already effing famous.

When you like the video because of the title even beford 00:02. Just because you know.
If this was on tumblr, I'd hyperblaze it.
at 5:39 i literally had goosebumps!
6:20
love that even he can be off by a few niticeable Hz sometimes
i disagree with the title

:)

The best version of Fix you is the one not played
I think this is a bit too much lol
I'm going to give it a dislike just because of his incredible, 1-in-a-100-years, unique and masterful ability to play anything that makes sounds.
Yeah it is interesting but in no means anything near close the live versions of this song by Coldplay. More so when you are at the stadium.
This is the best version

To each their own.
Yeah, that's the whole point of covering someone else's song and making it one's own, as many of us musicians aspire to do
