It goes like this, the fourth, the fifth,
The minor 7th fall and the major 6/9 lift...
Leo Cattani 🤣🤣
Lol
You just won TH-cam
this is funny because this is literally true
Lol true
hey you're not june lee
rhoda CAN WE COPYSTRIKE HARRISON?
i only realised it wasnt June because of this comment
I feel so lucky to be living in the same timeline as this man
O vivir después, da lo mismo, porque tú no lo afectas. Vivir antes o no haber alcanzado a conocerlo sí hubiera sido muy triste.
Sometimes Jacob's music stimulates me intellectually but doesn't do a whole lot emotionally, but this absoultely floored me. Just gorgeous.
I love how Jacob can show respect for previous versions of a song while adding his own Jacob complexities and doing it all while being completely soulful and musical, not at all pretentious. I swear the rhythmic alteration at 1:15 is an homage to Jeff Buckley, it seems so intentional.
this is gold. It's jacob's chords, but its possible to play. This is now my favorite video in youtube.
Realmente mano
You said it. Pure gold.
Get his piano book, it's full of stuff just like this :)
@@owenolson6771 id like to, but im brasilian. it REALLY expensive for me to buy it
@@owenolson6771 what’s it called, do you know?
how he modulated from C Major to B Major at 2:27 is hurting my brain
Bob billy dawg - and that rit. Helps our ears to get ready.
Its a basic II-V-I (c#m9 - F - Bsus2). He got from c to c# through a shared third (e), the same way he got from f to f# (bars 45 to 46). :-)
Would also like to add that there's a brief period of tonal uncertainty from middle of bar 46 which makes the settling on to B major more satisfying.
46 sounds f#m-ish all the way, the abrupt shift is between the bars 46 and 47.
Mirar "f#m ish" that's what I mean by tonal uncertainty
This is my favorite performance of Jacob's. Such a beautiful arrangement, and the timber of his voice is also really nice, just fantastic
@1:27 Ah a piece of peace piece!
This song is worth listening to just because of the substitute chord Jakob used at 1.07. He is a master of harmonization and timing 🍀
This is legit the most beautiful thing i’ve ever heard in my 20 years on this earth
you ever watched asmr....
In case you’ve never heard of drum corps....watch this and let me know whatcha think. Use some good headphones. th-cam.com/video/dIThg6FQxN0/w-d-xo.html
@@garrettflowers2449 I thought simple gifts from scv 2009 was the most beautiful thing I've ever heard, but man that was gorgeous
I recommend to listen adagio from Rach's 2nd symphony. Unbelievable beauty...
Tantacrul isn’t gonna like this
SackixFilms my exact thoughts
why not?
@@Shoutlikeatwebpunktd he made a video about performing hallelujah "correctly."
SackixFilms He’ll understand if it’s Jacob.
he would love this cover. thats the point of his video
This is actually incredible, the level of musicality in this arrangement boggles my mind
I've never heard something that has broken me down like this in my life.
my favourite song and my favourite musician. Amazing! thanks so much for the vid!
Thankyou very much for this impressive work.
Speechless. Really beautiful. Refreshing !!
Thanks for this! One of his most beautiful.
Beautiful!
I really think this is one of my favorite arrangements of his because it’s just him on one vocal line and the piano. I really get the chance to analyze and appreciate the harmonic and melodic choices he goes for, and there’s a simplicity even to how he approaches the melody. It’s really beautiful with his “warm blanket” tone and the phrasing of it all as well.
Simply beautiful!
My teacher told me to listen to this and I love it. I can't stop relistening.
my favourite cover/song by Jacob Collier! The way he modifies the melody is so beautiful!
Oh my word where has this been all my life. Absolutely amazing.
Sometimes I think Jacob Collier is just a gift from the heaven
He is.
Jacob collier could legitimately be the most talented musician of the 21st century.
If you've found the magic formula to measure talent, please share. Hint: Music and sports work in a different way.
Hey, I just don't like sports. That's all.
I would not say the BEST musician but of course he is a great musician.
Yeah, he pretty much turned modern and jazz harmonies to eleven
Guthrie Govan though?
This made me cry thank u for sharing
Im so amazed that this was a live performance
The warmness! Thanks for transcribing
Why are my eyes pissing tears
Thank you so much for doing this!!!
What a beautiful voice!
this is so great, god bless all y'all!
In my opinion this is about the nicest musical thing that I've ever heard. Thanks for the transcription vid :)
The modulation from C major to B major is simply stunning, the voice leading is beautiful but mostly that B major is such a warm hug, usually tracks finish with an upward modulation to increase tension and "excitement" but moving 1 half step lower is so gorgeous
This version is sublimely beautiful and brings peace.
3:09 he absolutely humbled the climax of this piece, it's insane how much a singular note can bring such a different context to the overall atmosphere of a composition.
this voice is very moving !
This is both so wrong, and so right.
Thanks, that was awesome
Thank you for uploading this recording on YT :) Kudos on the wonderful transcription
I like your version very much. Bravo! have a good day.
Great job! Gracias!!
Very nice!
De otro planeta!!!...gracias por nacer en este valle de lagrimas musical....hay esperanza.!!
Nice work!
Wonderful transcription! Thank you! Subscribed.
Thank you very much!
And then, once in a while, the Universe gives us people of the planet earth someone like you to make us feel happy and regain hope in the human race.
Your comment reminds me of this quote: "There comes a time when all the cosmic tumblers have clicked into place and the universe opens itself up for a few seconds to show you what is possible," - from the movie Field of Dreams.
@@Ted655687653 Beautiful
OMG I LOVE YOU THANK YOU
La tua musica mi fa'felice Jacob❤😎😘
is scary how detailed and accurate this transcription is
I’m not crying. You’re crying.
Im in love with that. The most sensitive way, the voice is here to make the piano sound britter, opposite of pop song. The band are here for the singer
So beautiful. Measure 35 in the piano shows: e d c descending bass line. The recorded audio does it in reverse.
Great!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you!
Magic.
i am so in love w jacob
That harmony :O
thank you
Why do people keep singing “the minor call”? As far I know it’s the “minor fall” as in falling down a third from the previous major chord...
I don't think it's minor fall as in falling in scale degrees, as the minor "fall" comes in on a 6 minor, right after the 5 major. I think it's a "fall" in mood, followed by a major "lift"
It's both and part of the beauty of the lyrics of Mr Cohen
Amen !
Thankyou.
THanks!

I was just flying with the introducting piano and then jumped near the roof when a hoarsely voice appeared and frightened me :o
How the hell can he do this? Just amazing
Jacob, please, post this song on Spotify!!!!
2:32 to 2:43 nice nice
Yea thats pure harmonic bliss
muito bom
nice arrangement jazzy
1:35 inspired by Bill Evans?
Peace piece i guess
That part's gotta be from peace piece
yea that reminded me of peace piece as well
Definitely reminiscient of Peace Piece but it's hard to find any jazz pianist that isn't influenced (indirectly or directly) by Bill Evans these days.
Gotta love em'
.... it's divine
End of bar 43 and 44 why cant i follow this rhythmically? Is it written exactly how its played?
2:23
it is written the same as it's played, but it's tricky to read! Tapping the beats, it works out, though
@@noahallen5829 yeah whys it tricky tho
I hear it as the first RH note is the "1" lol yet it comes in a semiquaver after. Im hearing it pushed back a semiquaver dor some reason
@@nezkeys79 yes he does an accent on the right hand so it confuses the ears and makes it very special!
Wow! Melody, harmony, and lyrics are wondrously beautiful. I've haven't listened much to Leonard Cohen--though I was knocked out, long ago, by his first hit, "Susanne takes you down." He really did have a gift. (Not sure what "cover" means in this context. Did Collier harmonize Cohen's tune? Whoever wrote these exact chords, they are elegant, apt, and poignant.) Thank you.
Richard Salisbury Yeah this was just a cover by Jacob, he re-wrote a lot of the chords and adjusted the original melody.
Yes he re-harmed it
When I first heard this back in April, my first instincts were to dislike it. I thought the arrangement was too much, and too many elements of it were contesting for my attention. I did appreciate the deceptive simplicity of the intro, and after this video kept appearing on my recommended videos thereafter, I kept returning just to hear that section. Now, however, I can't stop listening to it. What a great arrangement. Bravo.
I can quite agree, after a few listens it gets better and is quite a refreshing take on this song.
Because your brain is becoming familiar with new harmonies and sounds that he is not used to deal with. The key to appreciate contemporary music is repeated listening said one time an eminent composer.
Same here. At first I thought the harmonies as melody was too much, but after listening a few more times it all fit together.
Okay but why is no one talking about 1:04 - 1:12?
thinking the same thing hahah, what a beautiful part that one.
That quick octave jump is so slick.
The third chord on bar 21 😳
@@dynamo5326 like a Ab13b5 with a natural 9th and a natural 11th or some stupid thing like that. In the key of C...
@@dynamo5326 yes that's a Bb7(#11)/Ab which is a substitute dominant for the E7
Onde está o PDF para avaliação!? (Free or pay) grátis ou pago?
Watched it twice: one time for the voice and then the second one for the piano notation.
and then a 3rd and a 4th time....you know, for science.....LOL
Wow.........
How does he understand music so well? I just want to create but feel I don't know how to create certain chords that convey the feeling I want them to
Jacob Collier might just be a genius I think. Lovely
Monster
Bar 45-46 is underrated. That hurtful ascent, and then plunge, at a newly steadied rhythm.
The Stream Aid version is interesting and all, but it goes way too far and definitely loses the point of the original somewhere in all the absurdity. This is the one I always come back to, as it's doing something new and interesting with the song while staying relatively subtle and subdued. The melodic changes don't feel like runs for the sake of showing off, they actually fit the mood and refrain from going off the deep end. I especially love the vocal line after the key change at 2:43, it's different from the usual interpretations but maintains their beauty and simplicity. Even when he does do a vocal run or an unorthodox chord change, it's just a little flourish rather than going all over the place, and I think that's why it resonates with me so much more than his more recent take on it.
“I couldn’t feel, I tried to touch-__I...”
Jacob Collier is the Percy Grainger of our generation
Weird harmonies FTW!
I didn’t know grainier had issues, but I wouldn’t doubt it. Those beautiful dissonances don’t just happen.
TheMetatron333 what’s the best grainger for cool chords? I only know of him as an endless arranger of cheesy and jubilant folk songs. He was mega into sado masochism.
@@greatmomentsofopera7170 Lincolnshire Posy isn't all weird chords but there's some stuff in there that's totally jank
I really like 1:56
EDIT: Actually, I think it might be what you wrote but with another G on top or maybe that's just the sustain?
1:04 I think you meant to notate ADEG not GCD. I could be wrong but it sounds like ADEG in the right hand? @Harrison Steingueldoir
why there is not a live video of this? amazing work by the way
It was part of a radio-broadcast!

Well! THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I HAVE HEARD SOMEONE SING THIS SONG WITH THE 'MEANING' OF THE WORD IN TACT!!! THANK YOU JACOB. Young people sing it and have no idea what it means. An incredible rendition. Your a lead of this time in authentic expression. Thank you.
This and Jeff Buckley
3:21 the plagal cadence of all plagal cadences
Great version, as is Jeff Buckey's live in Chicago
I hear a F# in the attack of the E Major chord at bar 50 (Emaj9 with no 7th; F# that goes to E). What do you think? Thank you so much for this impressive work anyway!
Caramés Your ears are deceiving you. Bar 49 has an Esus2 and Bar 50 is just E major.
Jacob Collier does absolutely whatever the fuck he wants with music
Tritone sub to the vi... nice!
Vminor and VIIsus to I..... nice.
thank you, i'm gonna start using these substitutions!
This could last for 10 minutes..
Right click the video, click on "Loop"
I know it's not the same but it's all we got :)
I'm probably on the 20th repeat or something since I posted this
I wish.
Hi guys, a question for music geeks. What is the third chord at bar 21? Is it a Bb11/Ab (sub V/VI)? I'm studying classical harmony and I don't know too much about jazzy stuff
Yep, a subV/VI, but is a Bb7(#11)/Ab, this is how a think this chord
1:55
