I'm just amazed that someone so young... can own so many shirts!
ahahahahahahaha!!!!
when all the peeps amazed with his skill but this one😂👍🏻
@Henrique He's from London
lol really
Simon Klein He’s probably joking, but if not then I guess only in London then.
I'm very high but it amazes me that you will be studied fifty or a hundred years from now and we are knowing you alive
hahahahah
Felt that bro this dude is nuts I’m just tryna jam with him on bass and I can barely keep up
Word!
Yep. you're high.
he will!! XD
Anyone in 2024?
Yes
2024 and this video still kicks
Still here.
Here
You bet!
Damn this guy went to my high school and now has 4 grammy's and is nominated for album of the year...crazy
He deserves every bit of it! I'm the same age as Stevie Wonder, I grew up with him and his great music since we were 12. No one could do what he could do, always innovating and out in front. Some of you younger folks might not know that Stevie was born blind, making his accomplishments even more fantastic! Along comes Jacob who picks up where Stevie left off, which is saying a LOT! It takes sheer brilliance to redo a classic old hit and make it even better! go Jacob, we love you!
thats mad cool bra
Mill Hill or Fortismere?
@@thearabianmage Mill Hill bro, I think he was like 3 years above me and his mum was a music teacher
@@eurostepperz What was he like ?
This is what ears were invented for
Call me Musk and I invented your ears
They were never created. They were evolved
@@_lord_coconut_ Elon Musk invented ears
@@elonmusk352 can confirm, I am also Elon Musk, and I, too, invented ears.
@@elonmusk352 I must give you my most sincere thank you or inventing ears. They're tied with eyes for me for favorite body part.
He was 19 damn
RIGHT WTF.
@Funk O'Matic he was 19 trust me
He's a prodigy
Pretty much. Yeah
Funk O'Matic fr I thought he was 14 or 15
This guy surpasses prodigy. Everyone knows a “prodigy pianist” or “prodigy violinist” but this guy surpasses the limitations of instruments. Jacob is brilliant at music itself.
@Jacob Foster dude that's like 2 out of his 100 different gimmicks lol
@Jacob Foster ask quincy
@Jacob Foster boo hoo indeed
@Jacob Foster you sound quite musically inexperienced, or perhaps you come from a place of envy?
@Jacob Foster fair enough, quite humble
It’s tradition to come back to Jacob’s old videos
the fact that he brought back this bassline for djesse vol 4 is insane and just proves it
I feel bad that I saw this for free
Patreon, albums, apparel
This cover just screams gold.
Same lol
900th like wow I feels special
You probably saw a bit of commercial before this vid started so basically you didn’t watch it for free (at least he get’s paid)
Non professionals will be impressed by Jacob because of how good it sounds. Professionals will be even more impressed because they know how advanced this is. That's the power of bringing skills into popular music that will truly improve public appreciation of good music
I don't think none professionals will understand it.
i thiught u was gonna roast his ass for a second
@@BuddhaofBlackpool Anthony Hall I think you're wrong smartypants. Of course the comprehension cannot be matched, but much joy will be experienced. Iz an organic thing. I knew a cat (actual cat) that understood jazz rhythms and was thrilled by excellent intonation. Same with a parrot I used to sing to.
The comment above to which you respond here is brilliant.
What's even more impressive is that he's an autodidact
As a professional musician myself, I agree.
The legendary composer of our time has finally arrived.
The Bach of the modern era. Experimenting and revolutionizing how we write harmony.
Stevie Wonder's been here for decades.
@@edidpro But most of us weren't alive when he was in his prime. This guy on the other hand...
@@noahmay7708 ...doesn't write his own songs?
@@edidpro you want to change your opinion on that now?
I like how his hair looks like he just woke up on different days.
Woke up today my mind awhirl from head to toe... I guess that includes hair too
Yes, he actually changed his shirts and hair for each take.
If youre that good u can afford to look like anything. Not that he isnt goodlooking!
This guy is like the goku of music or somethin
*this*
most likely LOL
Except he's not overrated lol
Yvandres QR dude... Goku isn't over rated ;)
IT'S OVER 9000!!!
6 years later, an observation: the number of people who complain that his arrangements are "too busy" or "too much" are dwindling. Like any consummate genius whose work shatters all existing precedent, there is initial backlash because people aren't ready for one individual to catapult a discipline so far forward so quickly. But eventually as he continues to produce, people begin to accept it because all of a sudden he has made it real and possible. I am invigorated every day just to be alive at the same time as this guy and to know he's just getting started
oh?
I'm glad for your sake.
Oh my god. Its okay to be a fan but holy fuck how can you think this dude is THAT important? You make it sound like he is doing something new, hes NOT.
@@dudeman5303 Mr. Man, I don't know if he is THAT important yet, but as an external source of validation there is this interview with Steve Vai at Anderton's: th-cam.com/video/l1DIFfHvcqo/w-d-xo.html . At 39:29 the Captain starts a question and Mr. Vai responds to him and refers to Mr. Collier not as a Virtuoso per se, but as an utterly musical person and part of a new evolution on music. Please check this out as the interview is really good.
Have a good day!
i think jacob is technically virtuostic. however, i definitely think he could improve his songwriting- i find myself not really connecting to any of his music. (possibly with the exception of ocean wide, canyon deep.) idk it just feels emotionally void to me
After 7 years , we can see that Jacob is that contrary pendulum swing that music needs.
Inner complexity, outer simplicity, and most important, infinite imagination.
Beautifully put.
Yup. Amazing.
I wouldn't say there is outer simplicity though
@@NickGeorgiouit is good for easy listening and is very accessible to the average person
Where is the simplicity?
10 years ago this man singlehandedly destroyed the idea that my generation lacks musical talent or intelligence. Thank you for that and for so much more, Jacob.
Guess he took all of it, eh
@@styx85was just about to say that.😂
@@styx85 absorbed it
2020. Only discovered Jacob a few months ago. I've had to wire my jaw shut whilst listening to his arrangements. I read with interest here the opposing views of 'genius' and 'too busy', and also the lack of original writing. All very valid points, for now.
However, in my 50 years listening to music I've seen many artists grow across their careers to a point where they achieve this level of technical ability.....afters literally decades of experience.
I would just like to remind everyone that this gentleman was producing music to this standard when he was just 19...
19.
Just imagine what is to come.
Greetings from Ireland.
Love your observation
I thought most of his songs is original, with the occasional (amazing) arrangements. And to be honest, Mozart, Liszt, Chopin [insert basically any noteworthy composer] had people complaining of 'too many notes'.
I personally think Jacob is the next step in music.
@@hennie5307
Of course comrade, he does indeed have a full catalogue of his own music, which is brilliant. But most criticise him for 'messing' with other people's work......
To me, having your work taken and reinterpreted so wonderfully should be considered s tremendous compliment. It's a statement that what you created was so good it had huge untapped potential for further creativity.
I am aware that many of the critics here appear to have a distinctly 'armchair' air about them...... :-)))
Amen to aaaaaallll that. I just discovered him, too, and at 68, I'm just grateful I lived long enough to witness this.
💛
Engineer: "Hey Jacob, what instruments are you gonna play?"
Jacob: "Yes"
😂
Lmao
Overused joke I see this on every video of him fuck off
@@@Toon444: I'd post it in YOUR video if you had any.
mark prater doesn’t even make sense bro
I must have been living under a rock. This has been around for 8 years and I only just discovered it. Him. I cried.
Same here..today
I cried then grabbed a pair of tickets to see him in London next year!
welcome in heaven.
OMG SAME!
Same here today becausr of a BBC docu
@@NaughtyNimitz what docu?
Huge paradox here : This is still "ahead of time", 9 "years later". Mad.
I literally can't find my cat right now
Did you find him
¿😔🐱?
But don't you worry
Best comment! 😂😂😂
Hey I’m really concerned it’s been 2 years have you found him yet?
His voice has a wide range. VERY wide range!!
@Max Ellis Including falsetto
I get it 🤣🤣🤣
But his chest voice is still very big!
he also uses electronic pitch adjustments, especially for the really low bass notes... cool effects when you know your way around nice audio softwares!
Pearl Joy Perales impressive that such wide vocal chords fit in such a thin neck
There's talented, and then there's Jacob Collier. This guy operates in a whole different universe of musical genius.
It's 2020 and this is still absolutely sick.
it's 2022 and this is still absolutely sick.
It's 2023 and this is still absolutely sick.
I'm guessing it just wasn't sick in 2021?
Guys, it will never stop being sick, not now in 2024, not ever
and his bass skills are quite phenomenal
+Onesockanda Song they are not real. See it live
+gerPzoidberg what's not real about his bass skills? he is obviously playing it live :D
+gerPzoidberg his bass skills are nothing *but* real
not real as in unreal. a compliment xD
Give the kid an instrument, he will play it
This dude DEFINITELY has some background in harmony training. No one makes up those chords without some real education damn
I believe he went to Purcell school here in the UK
+JonnyRoweMusic I seen him in a video for the Royal Academy of Music when I was researching the school.
apparently he learned most of what he knows by ear, he said that his year in piano lessons weren't as helpful as listening to his favorite artists like stevie
His mom is a musician and he's gotten some formal education. I'm not sure just how much but I remember him saying that he's studied a LOT of jazz
Jasper Jamm, I think he has absolute ear.
this is the soundtrack to me eating a donut and i love it
🤣🤣🤣
HAHAHAHAHAHA
Just seen him on The Alan Yentob BBC programme. Never heard of him before . OMG, I have never heard anything like this in 58 years of buying records or 48 years of seeing live gigs. Unbelievable, just stunning.
Have you gotten to hear more of his arrangement? I love this one ss well as Fascinating Rhythm, Oh What A Beautiful Morning, Pure Imagination, etc.
Holy crap those harmonies are amazing
Thank you, Boogie Beethoven.
It is not just that the harmonies are amazing, but the precision and "micrtotuning" (if this is what happens) in them makes them sound just better than usual. I am totally amazed!
@@bernios3446 i mean he has perfect pitch
@@bernios3446 I read this as "I am tonally amazed".
@@velocityra LMAO
I wish I had enough hats to lay down for this man...
I have enough hats but I lack the floor-space.
And take all the donations with you once he's done? :D
You’ll need 6, but other times you will need up to 15
Jacob: 0:00 I'll change literally everything possible about this song
Also Jacob: 1:34 I will faithfully go up to the minor 7th here instead of down to the root, just like in the original, because I'm a stickler for detail
lmao
This video will have been uploaded 10 years ago on October 13, 2013 (6 days from now). This was the first thing he released publicly that got peoples' attention. Amazing guy.
Man Stevie Wonder needs to seeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaahhhh.....ummm hear this.
+Johnny Ciardullo
‘I have never in my life seen a talent like this’ (Quincy Jones)

+Johnny Ciardullo lucky he won't see that offensive comment
+Tame Nectar Stevie rolls hard though! Dude has an amazing sense of humor and is as quick as a whip!
awwww I think I love your dark soul
rsrsrsrs yeah man!!
4 Grammys later.... He's still talented.
Not everyone can arrange music like this, ESPECIALLY for a Stevie Wonder song. He's just a musician through and through. I would love to see him collab with Moses Sumney and James Blake, who also do their own musical arrangements.
James Blake YES
He does a few songs with Snarky Puppy you may want to check out.
OMG, him and James Blake would make me die 😭❤
Those grammys deserved him
God yes
His main voice at 3:04 is so smoothly beautiful and consistent! What a marvelous timbre!
By the way, as a Brazilian musician I should say that the Samba feeling/syncopation feels very neat to my ears! Love your art, Jacob!
Takes me back to my childhood listening to Take 6.
He's got a song he did with them as well. Take 6 will always be one of my all time favorites. They still sound amazing today!!
Not at all familiar with this young man-what a talent! I heard a version of "Under The Sea"( last summer) that was amazing and didnt catch the name of artist but SWORE it was a Take 6 session that I didn't know about. Turns out it was Collier off a Jazz Loves Disney comp. Fantastic! He's got BIG ears and seems like he's just getting warmed-up,career wise. Looking forward to all that he has in store. Keep on keeping on,Jason!
Yesss! gave me Take 6 vibes too!
Yes, I agree, Chris. Some of Jacob’s harmony lines are very similar to Take 6’s first album. Jacob is super talented and entertaining! I was looking to see if anyone else noticed this and commented. Thank you, Chris!
People not believing the genuine talent of Jacob is testement to his brilliance but his followers; Quincy Jones, Herbie Hancock, Pat Metheny, Chick Corea, Steve Vai, to name a few, cant all be wrong. haters gonna hate, musicians gonna listen.
What’s there to believe? We hear it :)
Touché❣️
Paul Grant Exactly
Quincy Jones said that Jacob is a genius....he knows what he tells!
His arrangement…that’s his brain harmonizing all the notes voice beat percussion and instruments. He’s a genius.
The harmonies in here are so insanely complicated…if this kid really composed all this on his own…good Lord.
This is genius. It's that simple : genius.
MARISSA ELENE NADIEJA IS A GENIUS. SHE IS PHENOMENAL BUT I HATE HER LIKE YOU DO. YOU HATE GENIUS AND NEED TO ADMIT IT. WE NEED TO HATE HATE HATE ON HER SOME MORE AND KEEP GENIUS OUT OF THE LIMELIGHT! WHY? IT MAKES ME FEEL INSECURE, AS I AM SURE IT MAKES YOU FEEL SMALL TOO. LET'S CONTINUE TO FORM CLUBS TO KEEP GENIUS LIKE MARISSA ELENE NADIEJA OUT...PLEASE HELP ME HATE ON HER TODAY. I HATE GENIUS! SO DO YOU!
Usually when someone does a cover, it's NOT as good (and - why????), but this guy has taken "Don't You Worry 'Bout a Thing" to another level.This dude is the REAL. DEAL. Yes, there is some enhanced bass/coupling, but this guy IS doing everything else. He can't do all this LIVE, but I can EASILY believe he can gig with anyone on practically any instrument. AND...... it doesn't at all sound robotic; there is lucidity and -it's FUN. I'm a musician, too, and whereas I've turned a couple shades of green, I'm NOT a hater, and respect the hell out of Jacob. EXcellent job.
If you watch his recent live stream, you'll realize he didn't lower his bass notes post-production, either. His range is just that ridiculous. ;;o.o this man is a monster.
I know huh! He uses the technology for timbre and color to enhance the music. On his IHarmU series he only pitch corrected a few notes and only on the submitted videos where there was some note flat or sharp that did not make the chord have it sing. Probably a 4 octave range from what I can hear but its the same with Bobby McFerrin who is one of his musical heroes!
also he does it live.
Disabled musician here, Jacob filled every gap. He found notes that haven't existed with just 12 notes and thousands of years of music later. I'm just grateful i got the opportunity to listen and learn from Jacob's music. Thanks Jacob.
I've discovered that listening to JC you don't hear the same song each time. I find that my attention follows particular instruments, or pairs of instruments each time. Also, my attention wanders to other sounds at different moments each playthrough. It's great fun to discover new things in a song you thought you had memorized.
This is stunning and so accomplished it's a little unsettling. You'd have to be some kind of a grouch to disrespect this guy's achievements. I'm a musician and, believe me, Collier is blessed with genius. This is a wonderful homage to Stevie W. And for those who prefer the original version, don't you worry 'bout a thing because the Wonderman still there for all time.
I see what you did there
Thanks so much, Jacob, for having a stop at planet earth for, hopefully, about 80 years before you move on to the next system!
hahahahah
Pray for 100!!
Sick sick sicko!!!! How could a 19 year old be this talented? Mind blowing.
Jacob (and all of his many identical siblings) are INCREDIBLE! It's complicated, but still groovy. His voice is gorgeous. He can play EVERY SINGLE INSTRUMENT UNDER THE SUN! He has hugely inspired all of my music making.
I think Stevie Wonder sued himself for copyright after this.
This is my single favourite comment I've ever seen, thank you
LOLOL I'M DEAAD
So funny!
best comment right here
thanks for the heads-up... i think. but found no info on that! please explain!?!
One of the most phenomenal talents ever to grace Planet Earth.
+Derek Williams Jacob is performing extremely well and even though its not my kindo music I appreciate his talents and his harmonical skills. Still, he doesn't need to be put on a pedestal with a goddess covering his head with a laurel wreath, no? ;) Hope he keeps his feet onda ground and creates his personal evolution in music.
+Hoimar Kapenze I think his feet are very firmly on the ground, and he is no fool, nor is he a conceit.
+Hoimar Kapenze What an odd thing to say. Performing extremely well? Faint praise! He not only has oodles of soul, grooves, sings perfectly in tune, arranged all that with some dazzlingly close harmonies and surprising modulations in there, plays a dozen instruments, but - oh yeah - he just invented a whole new art form! I know people have been overdubbing for a while, but this takes it to an insane level, even for youtube.
Here is a list of less talented people whose feet you could put back on the ground before his: Justin Bieber. Kylie Minogue. Robbie Williams. Sting. The Rolling Stones (yes, I said it). Because it's not sugar coated, because it has some complexity, this man's music won't probably reach the mass audience they have - so if a pedestal helps him, give him a pedestal.
The trouble that I have with u 'superlative people' is that u tend 2 judge everything nice u find on the net as double-mega-giga-cool, or, the other way round, as extremely bad. This is childish. Look at the alias you gave urself 2 register: 'jazzwonderboy'. M close 2 burst into laughter.
Can u please keep grounded? This boy is great in what he does. But he he is no 'wonderboy', stupid. He is a simple human. There are no wonders. We are not living in a comic world.
I think the trouble is that too many ppl using the internet are drunk or on drugs while surfing so their mind gets too excited.
So give this guy the chance 2 just do his thing without any hype. He deserves his audience 2 b serious, not overemphasized.
+Hoimar Kapenze You're free to judge Collier as merely OK, while we lesser mortals sit in awe. Of course superlatives should not be over used but they're in the vocabularly of all languages for a reason, and Collier is in MY opinion just such an example, even if he isn't on your list of favourites.
With the greatest respect the guy is a freak....absolute GENIUS how he has invented/found new chords and notes to write new music! Was totally moved by the whole concept and skill of the young man. Saw the TV programme last night about his start, journey, mother and admiration he has received from the industry. I am now a fan and will be an avid listener for years to come.
There was a programme? Oooh! Where would I find it? Love Jacob!
A GENIOUS ! I heard on a radio pograms that he also uses quarter tones in his singing, which, on top of his being a great musician, produces a very subtle effect very seldom heard in occidental music... FABULOUS!!💯💖
Here's the proof, the aliens are already on Earth.
exactly
dont you worry about a thing
I hate marissa elene nadieja and you need to help me hate on her. She is a genius! GENIUS! SHE PLAYS MANY INSTRUMENTS AND WRITES EVERYTHING BUT IT IS ON A VERY HIGH CREATIVE LEVEL. PLEASE HELP ME TO DESTROY HER. WE NEED TO FORM CLUBS TO KEEP GENIUS OUT!!!!!! HATE ON HER TODAY. DON'T MISS AN OPPORTUNITY.
@@agnethnao8247 I'M HATING THIS COMMENT, PLEASE HELP ME HATING IT. I'VE READ IT ONCE BEFORE, AND IT'S *NOT* GETTING BETTER.
Everything you wrote about this lady seems nice.
@@agnethnao8247 also, pleats write her name right.
the sheer breadth and complexity of this arrangement and understanding of harmonies and melody groove and rhythm make any negative comments some unremarkable people come up with both embarrassing and baseless.
Well said Darren!
david berry totally agree ....this guy's understanding of harmonies is breath taking...I feel sorry for anyone tying to knock this.
Minor pentatonic, what's up buddy
Shyuum It is so much more than minor pentatonic. The chords and subs are really inovative. If you don't hear it, it is due to your lack of understanding.
Chords that came from minor pentatonic scale, did you even know that? These "chords and subs" as you call them are just uper structures of that an expecific voicing played separately in this case and the rest is just circle of fourths like Autumn Leaves, Just the Two of Us, and basically almost all of the Jazz repertory so these "chords and subs" are not inovative, they been in Jazz, R&B and Soul for the last years, and I'm the one who have a "lack of understanding", I went to your profile and you don't even listen to Jazz, In case you didn't know this is "Contemporary Jazz" LOL you're the type of "rebel" internet guy who learns how to play guitar from basic TH-cam videos, when you have a deep "understanding" of harmony , we can chat a little bit.
Man Glory to God 🙏 that gave him so much talent! This boy is gifted
Man that samba vibe hits hard with these harmonies. I’m in love
Jacob doesn't do music. Music refers to what jacob does.
Then, by definition, Jacob does music.
pabs 🤫 shhh
That's not how logic works
@@Frahamen Exactly. It's beyond logic
c mountain what did I just say?
JACOB COLLIER is like an eternal child playing in a big park. But the toys in this park are musical notes and intruments !! What is wonderful with this kid is that he wants to share his toys with the world. So the park becomes a dreamland for all of us. Thank you Jacob.
Watching this while blowing up an Arby’s Bathroom
bruh
Hahah
I can't believe this was 10 years ago, it felt like yesterday when I became obsessed with Jacob's music. I miss this, I miss the old young Jacob that was way over the top, the raw talent of a genius incarnated in a masterpiece.
awesome
Lol WTF led you come here ?
@DevinDeath his comment didn't come front in YT algorithm
Epic
Ja ich mag auch Joghurt.
The arpeggio at 4:12 just knocked me off my shoes!!! How the heck does he do it all by himself?!?!? What a perfect timing in the recording!
*****
yeah but even if it was moved, who placed it? him so...
*****
also the video never cuts during the arpeggio so, he did it in real time. So stop hatin!
*****
no not much but I am a percussionist and I know about timing. For him to be able to LIP SYNC in perfect time with the audio tells me that he has naturally precise timing.
He's a real genius, he transcends styles, metric and roles in music, he has imagination and passion, he jokes like a kid with notes, rhythm and harmonies, he is asymmetrical, multi-instrumentalist… For me he's the number one of our age. I saw his performance at the Vienna Jazz Festival in 2016 and he was a revolution. I particularly love his tune "Don't You Know" played with Snarky Puppy and a big band. And I think the best is yet to come.
Jacob Collier when he steps on a lego: 4:20
*Screams in harmony*
Haaahaaahaaaha
420! Haha! FUNNY NUMBER! HA!
@@budgetyoutubechannel6128 nah it wasn't the number, it's the series of chords that sounds like a very pleasant scream
@@samuelebigi1313 bruh i know what
I know he comes from a long line of musicians, but good grief! How is all that talent packed into one person?! This blew me away. It's also proof that all these little pop star wannabe "celebrities" should shut up and step aside. The real king has arrived.
It's great influences and study. I love it he has embodied many of the greats. He had alot to study.
You say all the celeb wannabes should step aside but unfortunately the people who love the pop stars would not dig this as great as it is.
God : How many musical talents you want to have?
Jacob : *YES*
Gay.
mano a mano y
In 50 years I’ve never heard anyone do a Stevie song better than Stevie....until now. Love my son Luke for introducing me to this amazing talent.
Legend has it, it is impossible to worry while this song plays.
This kid make some big contributions to vocal Jazz which I think is often overlooked. It's incredibly difficult and he makes it look easy. He has to be most talented out there tight now. Hands down! I know it when I hear it!
This is the only song that should have a second like button
Pistachio God and all his other songs
A very clever chap. The Imagine documentary was really good and have a lovely family
I hear his Imagination and Creativity, but above all, I hear his Love of music.And it is huge.
I revisit this video often, when I want to be assured that amazing things still exist in the realm of music.
Thanks. I'll remember this.
very cool, thanks John!
Fairly certain he's a musical genious. I've always had a somewhat natural ear and innate talent for music but this takes it to a whole other level. Multi-instrumentalist, harmonist, theorist. Dude is far and away above practically every musician I've ever played with or met.
Besides stevie
Awesome talent. I am so glad my friend Andrew shared this with me.
Yeah its the breadth of understanding. And while you get magical prodigies like Joey Alexander - Collier's completely neurotypical. Britain doesn't deserve him.
Makes me wonder what makes you "fairly certain" rather than just plain "certain", or even plainly omitting the word "certain".
@@izayus11 makes me wonder what you hope to prove by taking issue with my choice of words. I am by no means above his skill level nor even educated enough in music theory to thoroughly and completely understand what it is that Jacob does on a basic level. But I know enough to more than appreciate what he's capable of which apparently is lost on you given the topic of your comment.
It has come to this: I have to listen to something by Jacob every day because it is the surest way I know to be elevated and filled with wonder. Jacob’s imagination, intuition, and musical skills are a gift to us all.
This is the most entertaining Zoom meeting ever!! This is seriously good, though. I just saw him & Mahalia on Jimmy Fallon tonight. He is amazing!! 😍🥁🕺🎸
You know, it's really amazing how consistent and even predictable many areas of life are. After watching this killer presentation by this extremely talented youngster, I looked to see the pathetic number of dislikes among the nearly ten thousand number of likes. No matter what, there will always be jealousy, there will always be haters. Most of these aren't even legitimate in their feelings and assessments. It's simply a matter of reflexive opposition by envious, losers in misery.... And we all know what misery loves.... Wonderful job, Jacob.
this kid has the ears of god
Don......some negativios wouldn't know excellence if it bit them in the ass!!! Only just discovered this superbly gifted young muso!
"Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity."
Robert J. Hanlon
AMEN. What an estute observation. Luther Vandross was booed of the stage on Showtime at the Appolo. Such talent can't be sqelched.
Too many children and adolescents come to these blogs and lay down their pathological negativity. You can tell they're too green to really appreciate artistry.
Dear God in heaven, my ears have truly been blessed this evening! I literally screamed, this is so DOPE!!!
Thank you Ted for introducing me to this guy!
I'm so glad he picked complexity and class, not pop! He could kill pop in one day, but he chose to go deep and I'm glad he did. He deserves all credit.
6 dudes in 1?!!!!!! How in the name of Pete!!!!!! Wonderous! Thank you man-boy!!!!!!! We been so schooled by this show of brilliance.
Did people every listened to the harmony of the original? Cause that's pretty amazing as well. Mr. Wonder in general has great harmonic structures in his music.
WalyB01 he indeed does
as a result, it’s only natural that Jacob likes Stevie’s music.
This is honestly one of the best things I have ever heard
in my life
holy
shit me too
+Angel “wu Heibai” M. LOL
That's right... until you hear his next video!
No worfs to add, just this: I'm a pianist, singer, composer, arranger, so, believe me, I know what I am talking about and Jacob is simply the best musician of our time. Cazzo!!!
Can we just appreciate the fact that master Jacob was 19 when this was released! His music is the most effective antidepressant I know.
Best commercial for SM58 microphone ever.
4:13, this part absolutely melted my mind. It broke everything I held true about music. Thank you Jacob.
I don't care how it was created, but ideas are clearly presented. The ideas are absolutely stunning. Harmony flights are fantastic, just mind blowing. Kaleidoscopic scales wrap familiar melodies beyond imagination. Wow..
I was hooked from the very first note..... How have I not heard this before?????????? So good!
Ludwig, wake up!!! You have to see this!!!
He is Ludwig, yo. But he can hear and he's happy this time.
I want to say this dude is multi-talented, but he's seemingly more than that: he's omni-talented!!
He‘s not (yet) into wind instruments......
that outro of 5 fives and a seven over the 4/4 pulse is pure genius
Oh those inner harmonies are sooo good. Also his voice is insanely intune
I commented on this vid a long time ago. It is still sensational. Like Amy Winehouse he seems to have jazz in his soul. Collier is a genius and I hope he gets every success he deserves.
..Jazz in his Soul.
He did brother! 2 of them! 😂
*Suddenly feels talentless*
i feel your pain..
Don’t be disheartened. Be inspired!
Been 5 years since this comment posted and it's still relevant.
Why does this comment _transcend_ time?
@@cotenero sure, inspired by someone who, at two years younger than my current age, was better than i will ever be at just about everything he played/ sang in this video. i am inspired by musicians i feel i can approach in terms of skill, Jacob just has such an immense supply of talent, perfect upbringing and technical skill that i am left in despair. I love the music, it just hurts to listen to because i know i can never reach a similar level.
How can you not look at this and think 'what's the point?' - I know many people who've played their respective instruments for centuries and don't even begin to approach the level of understanding this man had at 19. and these were people who were fortunate enough to begin learning at an already incredibly young age. Jacob collier makes me want to quit playing music and focus on something more achievable for me - at least witnessing his talent first hand makes me realise that i'm not particularly talented myself.
I’ve solved the mystery, he’s an alien! He must be - to be this talented at multiple instruments, have that voice with a beautiful base tone and creativity, it’s EXTREMELY unusual!!! 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯😮🤭
People have commented about the genius of this 19 year old (at the time ).
The thing that I find stunning, is the several LAYERS of genius that this video reveals.
There is the OBVIOUS presentation that the musical genius presents, but the visual presentation is pure genius as well. Further, for a NINETEEN year old to possess the SOCIAL savvy and accompanying courage to step out and even MAKE this presentation...
Genius indeed.
I'm not worried anymore! Thanks Jacob!
For those impressed with his harmonies (and well you should be!) look up his vocal harmonizer that he and his bud from MIT created. It lends a very multi level and beautiful sound to his music when he uses it. Listening to his masterclasses at different places, as well, is not only instructive but fascinating if you have any of the music geek gene in your DNA...
I was under the impression that he mostly used the harmonizer for live stuff
@@SuperOranBerry Well the impression you are under is correct. He says it in interviews.
He is in MIT too?!!!??
Posted exactly seven years ago as I write this, this video, which I discovered much later than many, never fails to give me chills. How grateful I am that I found this remarkable talent!
Lost for words. Its iike watching all the worlds best musicians in one video.
