This film saved my daughter from a severe depression because she couldn't find her "spark" and didn't feel good enough. She went from suicidal to happy in two hours. Thanks to everyone involved for tackling the big topics and for your artistry.
Amen ❤ that's so amazing to hear! I wish you and your daughter all the best! It's incredible how touching films can be and I'm so happy to hear that it helped her! And thank you so much for sharing your story! ❤
Nominated for a Golden Globe and an Oscar for his music for the new movie SOUL (2021). Plus he is active in the streets protesting, as well as just gathering people together with music. Super super beautiful talented person.
I can not believe how much this moved me. In this time of coping with dangerous divisions, whether political bipartisanship, xenophobia, or the resurgence of blatant racism(which has always been there, truth be told), Jon Baptiste reminds us all of the magnificent beauty present in this world, if we only just opened our eyes. It is one of our responsibilities as intelligent human beings to help those with closed minds to realize that we are should all strive to be a positive blessing to our race...the Human Race.
Jon Batiste, you are a true treasure to the world and I praise God for you! There is true healing felt deep in the soul when you play and sing. Thank you for letting God use you in such a healing, beautiful way. And congratulations on the very well deserved Oscar nomination. I KNOW you will win. 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🎶🤗
Losing my granddaddy to COVID on 8/4/20 locked me in a dark space but only until I was able to look up again I was introduced to a beautiful movie “soul” that showed me how to fight on and live on.
God is speaking thru Jon Baptiste and his piano. Soul a beautiful new disney movie for all children and adults to learn to love everyone else on the Earth.
Not all original. "What a Wonderful World" was a Louis Armstrong song, many years ago. It was used as the closing for the television version of Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy in the 80s.
Congratulations Jon. Thank you for bringing love, hope and happiness to so many. A special thanks from a kiwi down under in Auckland, New Zealand. Into our forth citywide covid lockdown. Continue to bring the joy into our homes 😊
Yeah... as a no united statian citizen I can’t understand what the f has to do black skin with music, because capabilities of creating music depends on your mind, your practice and your passion. But I can understand that united statians where so racist that they create a “black people music”. black people where so discriminated that they congregate each other to came stronger creating in consequence their own world... yeah, never less saying “creativity, music and warmth of black people” IS BEING RACIST, you still r mentioning their color on a difference in mind. You are so hardcoded in that I can’t believe... I can understand now with this kind of comments why in your country there is a huge racist problem that resonante in all over the world.. unbelievable
Well said. The culture we have created out of our bondage, hardships, enduring spirit, and the eternal quest for a better day? It ALL deserves recognition. As for those who are so quick to bring up racism? So interesting how they never have difficulties acknowledging the history and culture of the Irish, Italian, Greek, Chinese or other cultures. But when it comes to the Black/African American experience in America? We should pretend our history and cultural contributions don't exist, smh. Whatever...it's a wonderful world, and I'm glad we're here, doing our part- despite the struggles.
First saw him on Stephen Colbert. Loved him then. Found out he’s graduate from my son’s high school in New Orleans. Loved that in New Orleans. Same high school band. Many years apart.
I am only just getting to know Jon since his 11 grammy nominations, even though I too am from the New Orleans area. I have heard of the Batiste family but not specifically of Jon. I don't watch much tv. But oh, I have fallen in love with this man. His love of life and of people is truly amazing. He is truly using the gifts God gave him to inspire, teach, and love. THANK YOU, Jon!!!!
This guy always had the flare, great to see a burst. Can't wait to see the bloom. Congratulations bro, beautiful addition to the disney theme. About time they added a bit of positivity to the realm of possibilities once again.
I have being following Jon Batiste for a while now. His music, his voice, his soul is deep with real feelings. When I hear his music I can feel his messages- from the top of my head to the tips of my toes. He speaks to the "goodness and kindness in my heart and soul. Should Webster need a photo of "Soul pounding happiness" a photo of Jonathan Batiste would be displayed. I also like that he takes a stand on racial injustice, that has been active for longer then I have been alive. Written on October 21, 2021.
Jon is the perfect antidote for the "pandemic blues". A gift from G-d that keeps on giving. The lyrics of this song could be his credo. Love from Long Island's East End 🥰💌❤
The theme is from Louis Armstrong’s song “What a Wonderful World”. While I appreciate the arrangement, the credit for this song should go to Louis Armstrong.
I absolutely love Jon. Even if he weren't a brilliant musician I would feel that way. Though he is a brilliant musician. I hope he achieves his "hoop dreams" as he mentioned on Colbert--so long as it doesn't curtail his musical career. With those hands he just might.

That's exactly what I wanted to say.
Nature Took It's Time Making Jon❤
That glance at the camera when the lyric says "I love you"... MY HEART.
Thank you Jon Batiste.
Jon Batiste is soooo talented. Just beyond
When his name came up in the credit scene, I wanted to say "Jon Batiste, everybody!" like Stephen Colbert always do.
"Yes indeed" as Jon answers.
Nominated for a Golden Globe and an Oscar for his music for the new movie SOUL (2021). Plus he is active in the streets protesting, as well as just gathering people together with music. Super super beautiful talented person.

Trent Reznor and Atticus did a great job with the soundtrack and Jon Batiste was awasome with the jazz.
Jon Batiste, you are a true treasure to the world and I praise God for you! There is true healing felt deep in the soul when you play and sing. Thank you for letting God use you in such a healing, beautiful way. And congratulations on the very well deserved Oscar nomination. I KNOW you will win. 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🎶🤗
He won an Oscar 👋👋💚💫
I knew he will get the Oscar, when I watches SOUL for the first time
He’s in the zone
*Throw stone
ALWAYS in the zone!
This man is so gifted. I never would have known who he was had it not been for Soul.
Watch Stephen Colbert's late show. Jon is the music director. We've been loving him for years!
He is a legend so talented.
Jon is new to me, but how I love his soul and his refreshing talent. So glad I “met him”.
What a beautiful voice. What a wonderful man. ♥
Losing my granddaddy to COVID on 8/4/20 locked me in a dark space but only until I was able to look up again I was introduced to a beautiful movie “soul” that showed me how to fight on and live on.

Congratts to the Golden Globe!

we should never forget how poor the world would be without the aesthetics, warmth, music and creativity of black people. I love them, thank you!
Amen to that.
Amen.
Amen 🥰 We are all one ❤

Why are you looking at skin color? Is that all you see?

Thank you Lord for bringing attention to Mr. Batiste.
This really puts things into perspective. Thank you Jon Batiste!
First saw him on Stephen Colbert. Loved him then. Found out he’s graduate from my son’s high school in New Orleans. Loved that in New Orleans. Same high school band. Many years apart.

This melody piano part is one note repeated eternally 👀
It's very pretty this performance.
'I'm not crying YOU'ER CRYING!'
Maybe when Jamie’s character talked about how that piano player inspired him, he was talking about Jon Batiste.
Awesome
The theme is from Louis Armstrong’s song “What a Wonderful World”. While I appreciate the arrangement, the credit for this song should go to Louis Armstrong.
