I've met this man before and I have to say he is one of the most inspirational people I've ever met in my whole life. He truly has a giving and kind heart. There are not many people like him in this world, unfortunately. Even if you think this is corny, what he does for kids is far from it. He gave us a speech that had me in tears. He gave me such a positive outlook on life. America Sings was one of the best programs I have EVER attended. Thank you John Jacobson for all that you do!
@@botelladeaguamediollena4885 Did you happen to see John in your school district somehow in some way? I doubt any of you know this but John has a brother that was a school principal. So when I was in elementary school I had a principal named Mr. Jacobson and thats how I know that
This guy is an amazing teacher and so fun to talk to. I just took a clinic from him and he got everyone to learn songs and dance and we were all laughing and having so much fun together. He just wants to bring music and dance to kids. That's his talent. Sadly this show just wanted to embarrass him. He's a great guy, look him up! John Jacobson.
What they don't show you is that the producers called John and asked him to be on the show. He didn't want to try out to be on the show and then they treated him like a contestant. He was just doing what he loved, with no knowledge that they were going to bully him on national television. He is the most kind and inspiring man I have ever met. This is horrible how the show treated him. Everyone who has had the honor to meet John (or work with him at SLL) understands what a loving person he is!
I met him personally, talked to him, and got a picture with him. He's a really nice guy and he taught me and my cousin's some 4th of July dances with a big group. He told us about this experience and said that they called him personally to come on.
My high school like many others have been in the Macys Thanksgiving day parade under his direction for many years back in the day. He once had an organization called " America Sings" . My first trip to NYC was because of him. I'll never forget it. The motto was " to kids who feel they have no hope, from kids with hope to share" we did lots of volunteer work while we were there. Don't make fun of him.
I have a two degrees in music and have been performing semi-professionally and professionally for most of the last thirty years. In addition, I have taught students music for most of the last twenty years. Mr. Jacobson is one of the most talented individuals anyone will ever find. He will be doing workshops for teachers that I have the privilege to attend in the next few weeks. The world needs more people like him.
I’ve known John for years. Not only is he an exceptionally talented man, but everyone who knows him would agree that their life is enriched by knowing him. ☮️♥️😊
John--I have SO much respect for you! Please do not let this dampen your spirits because you have so much incredible talent and millions and millions of people love you, your songs and dance choreography. It is obvious that those American viewers did not know about you and your popularity and your musical genius. I just got the Music First Express magazine and you can be sure that at least 1,200 kids will be learning the Double Dream Hands choreography in the Fall! Go, John, GO!!!
i actually went to his workshop with my show choir in columbus, Ohio last yr. and we learned this dance along with many others. im gouin again this yr. funn! now u have to remeber tht this song along with some of his others are focused towards younger children. but we learned many new dances including jai ho, and many other newer songs.
Teachers need the energy he exhibits to keep up with kids' energy and to help keep kids' attention. Piers - how dare you call him annoying. You get paid much more than him, but America benefits much more by what he provides.
Watching this is hurtfull honestly hearing the booed is like painful and the fact he got a positive attitude still means he is strong and those comment was just brutal
...why he does it. He's my hero for being a champion of music education. That is why he agreed to be on the show (the show approached him btw), not because he wanted to seriously compete.
So, I met this guy. He is a wonderful music educator and advocate for keeping music in public schools. He also is passionate about children's fitness. In an email I received this week from my music educators conference there was a letter from John Jacobson. He said he was told that the audience was going to be prepared to do the dance with him. He said also that he would be teaching it to the judges. And lastly, he said that during the interview portion he was going to get a chance to explain w
Well... I think he is sooooooooo enthusiastic and loves what he does. The judges were totally Ignorants. I'm so glad that ELLEN DE GENERES had him on her show. Jacobson you are not annoying. Thank you for being such a great inspiration to our kids!
Yeah I agree. Piers sucks. I cant believe he said he was an annoying teacher. He obviously has no idea how hard teacher's work. I love that he is teaching kids clean dancing and appropriate music.
@Hadrwraer All the 16 year olds in the audience man. Look at the video and you'll see what appears to be a girl of no more than maybe 16-17 giving him the thumbs down. Honestly I have a lot of respect for the one judge who actually got up and danced and enjoyed himself. He didn't care if he looked stupid because he was having fun. I mean honestly he teaches children, it's supposed to appeal to them. Not the older generations.
What an enthusiastic human being. Pier has proven to me time after time that he is a selfish asshole. How can someone be more happy than this guy right here?
I used to love this show and thought like John, it was a show that cared about real people,but after Piers, who was my favorite judge, said he was annoying, I won't be watching AGT again!! The producers ASKED him to come on the show and do this!! He was set up!! John will be fine-- He is an icon in the music education world-- His reach goes far beyond AGT!!!!! And his legacy will linger long after that show is old news!!
This man might not have the best choreography in the world, but he is soo enthusiastic and he tries, and honestly he probably inspires a lot more children then we think as he makes it all look so fun!!!
So... I went to one of his workshops since my mom teaches elementary music, and he told us first hand that he was completely setup for this. He was told he was supposed to setup a flashmob, and that he would not be a contestant. Obviously, he was lied to. SO wrong.
The audience was mean, they would've had more fun if they'd gotten into it; great job John. BTW here because of gishwhes 2015 Misha always brings attention to fun things and people.
Thanks for the compliments :-)
John Jacobson anything for you
John don't let anyone bring you down, keep your head up buddy! You did excellent!
This was not the right time. Maybe it will be different if you go now due to nostalgia and recognition
Arigato, Sensei
Screw the judges you are talented
What's the point of disrespecting his art? He is enjoying what he's doing and he is great at it. And personally I would have too. It's a shame!
Acurry17 boy do i love those funny feet
Who in the HELL booed JOHN JACOBSON? I swear, if I have to come over there...
i'm friends with John Jacobson
Then you can tell him his UK cell is ready to strike. Oscar Step Kick Echo Zero.
ok
Voz I would of booed
Foxy_Pirate_Fox728 just by that comment and your interests I can tell you were a toddler at the time
Little known by everyone this man would become a legend.
Legend may be a little strong...

+James Hapenin you fuck off
Sonja Stornes I agree, I was in a program at Disney that he choreographed and he is by far one of the most sweetest humbled people I've met!
Sonja Stornes That’s bullshit and you know it

Replying to this is weird considering how old this comment is, but I'm attending America Sings in Nashville this month! Kinda how I found this video.
The enthusiasm gets to you. It almost makes you want for him to win at everything he tries.
When the audience booed at him.
Ernie prepeared to commit a hate crime

Alison Lockenvitz It's really easy to make fun of him but he honestly seems like a great guy.

Isn't America Sings amazing?! I just attended the 25th anniversary in Washington D.C. In April. He is ruler phenomenol!
*truly
I was in the group in 02 and 03 he is a great guy!!

Some people win the show, and others win millions of hearts online
All y'all that boo'd him can get Double Dream Footed😡😡😡
Come on Piers he teaches kids how to dance those moves are for kids cut him some slack!
I feel sorry for him. :'(

Keep dancin mister jacobson
i actually went to his workshop with my show choir in columbus, Ohio last yr. and we learned this dance along with many others. im gouin again this yr. funn! now u have to remeber tht this song along with some of his others are focused towards younger children. but we learned many new dances including jai ho, and many other newer songs.
If only he did double dream feet. In my opinion it’s better.
Little did the judges know they'd all be irrelevant in 2020 and this guy would become meme immortalized smh
Teachers need the energy he exhibits to keep up with kids' energy and to help keep kids' attention. Piers - how dare you call him annoying. You get paid much more than him, but America benefits much more by what he provides.
Howie is amazing. He actually gave this guy a chance
Watching this is hurtfull honestly hearing the booed is like painful and the fact he got a positive attitude still means he is strong and those comment was just brutal
Those people at America's got talent don't know art when they see it. Your dancing is glorious
This is my choir director's uncle :D and he's the best he did this knowing he would be booed :)
I just loved how into it Howie was getting
Genius is never understood in its time.
lol "America's Got Talent" with two British judges and a Canadian judge
why would anyone disrespect such an amazing man
how dare they boo john
...why he does it. He's my hero for being a champion of music education. That is why he agreed to be on the show (the show approached him btw), not because he wanted to seriously compete.
The nerve to boo john Jacobson! Such a nice and dedicated music educator.
The world wasn't ready for Double dream hands yet

Well the audience LOVE HIM! 😂😂😂😂
He deserves to win. This man taught me to dance
Yeah I agree. Piers sucks. I cant believe he said he was an annoying teacher. He obviously has no idea how hard teacher's work. I love that he is teaching kids clean dancing and appropriate music.

He is probably the most wonderful person I have ever met in my life....he does so much to try to better the world and he is amazing! Screw the haters
He choreographed for together we sing. He is a great dancer and very energetic. Plus he's nice.
The audiences who booing and two judges who press x buttons didn't know the steps of this legendary dance moves.
Bless you John Jacobsen.
People hate greatness.
What an enthusiastic human being. Pier has proven to me time after time that he is a selfish asshole. How can someone be more happy than this guy right here?
how can they do that to him, he is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo talented
He pissed off Piers Morgan...thats the biggest win ever
I used to love this show and thought like John, it was a show that cared about real people,but after Piers, who was my favorite judge, said he was annoying, I won't be watching AGT again!! The producers ASKED him to come on the show and do this!! He was set up!! John will be fine-- He is an icon in the music education world-- His reach goes far beyond AGT!!!!! And his legacy will linger long after that show is old news!!
The production team is f*cked up for inviting him on as a joke, which it had be if you watched the youtube video, which they definitely had to of.
Wow that judge was rude! John Jacobson is such a pleasant, positive guy! He didn't deserve that judge to be telling him he was annoying :(
hes 54? id love to be able to be this enthusiatic and energetic about something and to dance this easily when im 54! good on him!
wish he was my music teacher
Americas meanest people and toughest crowd against the happiest man on earth.
If you'd ever seen him in person you'd love him even more. Can't wait for TMEA!!! Go John!!!
What?! Why?! Jacobson is awesome and they go off and boo him!
He is legend
I love how it's called Americas got talent yet there are two British judges and a Canadian judge -.-
I hate how they did him so dirty.
This man might not have the best choreography in the world, but he is soo enthusiastic and he tries, and honestly he probably inspires a lot more children then we think as he makes it all look so fun!!!
Ill have whatever he's having because that is probably the most positive, inspirational man I have ever met
Wow it's kinda sad he got booed on tv like that I've actually met him in real life at America sings and he's actually a really nice person
Well you know what? HE WAS ON ELLEN because she LOVES him _ !!! Take that
I have to do this in music class at school
I hate those judges now-
I forgot about this for quite a while...now I remember how funny it was.
did anyone else notice that they were booing him?
America got talent and the judges are from UK. The world in a nutshell
I loved the permanent :D face that he had. He's really the most cheerful guy I've seen. Pretty sad that they all booed him. Haters gonna hate I guess
So... I went to one of his workshops since my mom teaches elementary music, and he told us first hand that he was completely setup for this. He was told he was supposed to setup a flashmob, and that he would not be a contestant. Obviously, he was lied to. SO wrong.
How dare you judges! HOW DARE YOU!
"You're about as annoying as life gets" - Piers Morgan...HAHAHAHAHA 😆😆😆
He'd having A LOT of fun
AWW!!!! Poor guy!! He is so happy and into it! :( :( I don't like seeing people get put down, especially people like this!

The audience was mean, they would've had more fun if they'd gotten into it; great job John. BTW here because of gishwhes 2015 Misha always brings attention to fun things and people.
