Love the fact that he comes off as a really happy, upbeat kid. He's totally enjoying his music....love it. Need more like him in this world.

[GrumpyStormtrooper]

how the fuck can anyone hear this kind of stuff in their head? how the hell did he come up with that bass line at the start? that's incredible

[charlesunc]

I can't figure it out - I'm a musician and I had to discovered this talent by chance ... why doesn't everyone in the world know about this brilliant young man?  Not only great, but ENJOYABLE art.  Blown away.  

[HarmoniChris]

2:22 "Some time alone with you!"

[Trumpophone]

It’s crazy that he was this much of a genius even 8 years ago

[Toon]

Absolutely my favourite Jacob Collier song. I can't stop replaying this help

[paulozambarano]

God what a absolutely brilliant bass line

[JahJahBruh]

Whereas most people would cite giving up on their musical ability checking you out, I will try to motivate myself to make myself as good or even better. A brief but true inspiration!

[gregstegeman]

Further proof that this guy descended from another world where there are absolutely no limitations.  If Jacob is this amazing at 20, fasten your fucking seatbelts!

[tonyinbrazil]

When the CD of originals comes out, consider my money in your bank account.
Real talent is so scarce these days, yours deserves a premium.

[BenjaminMorrenMusic]

1:49 is so amazing!! Love the texture of that "I"

[Rialas]

Young man, you have become a shockingly unbelievable musician. Cannot imagine where you will be over the next few years.  I was lucky enough to hear you grow as an artist over the last few years.  Long live Mill Hill County!!!

[sibusisomaseko]

where has this guy been all my life!!! Utterly mind-blowing. I've never before heard anything closely resembling such a sound, PURE GENIUS!!!

[seanscott]

Its sad that only a few of my friends recognise this genius .

[tessgarraway]

One of my absolute favourites. The layered groove and arrangement completely floats my boat

[OrbiliusMagister]

Ohmygawd! This is beyond Sting's best worldjazz crossovers!
Food for both mind and soul. Visionary and complex, but yet nothing a good ear cannot appreciate!

[themenwriteinthesugar]

double bass is so underrated I'm glad he plays it how he does

[NicolasTREIL]

Absolutely brilliant ! I still wonder why this song has less views than Jacob's other pieces, been listening to it for year now and I'm amazed each time I do

[charliemurdockmusic]

Just so unbelievably fresh and full of life.

[Drummerbcl]

Everyday I'm finding things that I wasn't expecting. This young dude is a monster.
