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.
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 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.
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
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!
@@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.
just there ? ... my hairs are half way to alpha centauri by now dude ... that was almost religious and im a bass player ...i know these things ,,, im routinely unimpressed by the crescendos every gig this guy is something more... something to be celebrated and shared i have to add ... the one for stand up ... let me find it ... dud e this one was special too !! ... unexpected lows and such ... wonderful new piano bits too ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-xwPnSS702Ow.html try it
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.
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.
@@ibuyfriends4467 Have you seen the recent version Coldplay performed with JC and Jason Max Ferdinand Singers on SNL? ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-wPKbuDFC1Rs.html&ab_channel=SaturdayNightLive
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.
