The world needs more Jon Batiste!
Facts
Amén
Such a good dancer!!
AMEN!! 🙏
I say that every time I see him on the screen
I just can't help but smile when Jon is smiling.
I know..me too...everytime 😁
It’s impossible not to
👆 This comment right here. 👆
He's so full of joy. I just love him!
Yeah
This man is truly one of the righteous men of his generation. A powerful gift from the Lord.🤗😇
Amen!
He is AMAZING!! I’m 68 years old and never knew who he was. I LOVE HIM!! Wrote his name down so I can play him on Alexa!!! He makes me happy & want to move! Thank you Jon!!♥️♥️🙏🙏
I guess you've also never watched the Late Show with Stephen Colbert.
He's great. I could understand why you think he's been around for a long time, classic timeless music and all. He's a millennial though. My age I think.
@@edjoyce6217 yeah, at my age hon, I’m in bed by 10:30, finish the news and sleep! Can’t seem to stay awake til 11!!
Hello Judith
Amen...back pain be gone! I gotta move!
Finally UA-cam algorithm suggests something good
Yep, that’s how I ended up watching this gem.
@@chrism9294 Me too.
Word
Man, they're always recommending me cool shit. Scary to say. :D
X2
I remember perfectly, It was on the Stephen Colbert Show, a bit in which Stephen goes to New Orleans to meet Jon and his family. In one scene they are walking down the street, Jon has his Melodica, a homeless man comes along, Jons face lights up and starts playing a soulful tune, the homeless man is dirty and wearing a torn down dress but he has a tamborin in his hand, they jam together. For a moment that burn-out guy is no longer a mental health victim or a lifetime of bad decisions, he is a human being. I realized then the true power of music.
Thank you Jon. Stay human!
That clip is here, if you went looking for it like I did: ua-cam.com/video/fwHSDuEG6qc/v-deo.html
@@kieranleopold9115 Exactly. Thank you!
@@kieranleopold9115 Thanks!!!
THAT showed you the power of music? You hadn't seen demonstrations of it before? They are everywhere, even in birdsong! Music unlocks people with catatonia, music releases people with severe autism, music delivers and restores and transforms! We see if (even if we are hard of hearing) from our earliest months of life
@@miasmicmisanthrope4410 Nothing wrong with coming to your realization in your own good time.... no judgement required, only gladness that it happened.
Jon Batiste gives me goosebumps, he's 21 century Ray Charles.
Every time I see Jon Batiste at work, I’m just so struck by how he embodies joy and love for his work. I am totally in awe of his ability to uplift, even in the seemingly darkest times. He’s my hero.
Mine, too!
“JON BATISTE everyone”....Yes indeed!✌️😄
UA-cam algorithm finally putting this man on his own platform like he deserves.
🔥🔥🔥💯😘
Probably because of his grammy for the soul soundtrack
Agree never heard of him till a few minutes ago and I can see him going places he's amazing.
@@pattygraham1778 His steady job is that of the band leader on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert. If you ever watch that show, you will see him a lot.
Deadlift workout music right here 💖 *a u t h e n t I c v i e w s* 💖 dun took
Jon Batiste oFf 2 da big leagues and for dat I will always be super grate
I have been in New Orleans, it was exactly like that in one of jazz clubs. I dropped my jaw. it was so dazzling:) Thank you Academy, you gave Grammy to a right person this year!
I was born and raised in New Orleans, and I second this.
I am a New Orleans Native as well & I have Loved watching Jon for many years & he always delivers!!! This Man is truly Blessed!!!
for the record: I'm a journalist, and in a very short 20 minute interview once that likely meant absolutely nothing insofar as it being something to make-or-break his career, he was SOOOO sweet and polite. just saying as I think this should be known!!!!! I think it's important to support nice people and he is definitely one :)
Good luck with your career.
❤️
Well they know now.
Agreed
We should absolutely support all nice people 🥰
Jon Batiste is a concentrated bundle of sunshine. This is the soundtrack of 2021!
Nope lol never trust someone that smiles that much. He might have bodies buried in his backyard or something 😂. Great song though and chicks ass was on point.
I thought he was on heroin
@@thesinaclwon Way to finish it off like a pig.
@@wbheightfive6760 Why would you say that?
@@2186kmr i dunno he reminds me of ray charles so heroin confirmed.
The next generation of Soul! Batiste rocks!
And for all those years, I thought he was just the pianist of Colbert's late show...
To my defense, I live in Europe and I'm not really following the music scene. But that was also, at least partially, because they had stopped making this kind of music :)
It was obvious from the late night show that this man had class and a big heart and I'm so thrilled to discover that he also have the talent. Hats off, Mr Batiste !
Dancers:
Nikki Marvin and Mikey Pedroza
Marielys Molina and Denzel Chisom
Tatiana Barber and Tislarm Bouie
You knew what we needed before we even asked 🙏
It's Denzel *Chisolm
Thank you! Joyous!
Thank you!
Here's the new question: Who's the security guard at the end? That definitely feels like a cameo. Chazz Young?
Every time I see Jon’s smile, I always smile and immediately feel happier. Over the last year in particular, seeing Jon on “The Late Show” always brought a smile to my face, no matter how much crap had gone on throughout the day. Thank you for being such an incredible, positive person! 💕💕
And whenever he gets a minute to show his talents I'm always 😳
Man, the brother comes out of left field with that smile! You know it's there, but you don't know when he's gonna get to show it...every damn time, makes me happy just thinking about it :)
Lyrics
We done a lot of living
We working overtime
Don't need another million
You got that goldmine
I love the way you're livin'
'Cause you so genuine
You got that something special
Didn't you know?
I just need you, you, you
Met you when I was a lil' nappy head boy
And I never put down my alto saxophone, yeah
Buckjumpin' down on the boulevard
I couldn't wait to blow my own horn (woo!)
It ain't wrong for you to play along
Playing this song 'til you die, come on, come on
In this world with a lot of problems
All we need is a little loving
Thank you, thank you, oh, you make me
Thank you, thank you for your love
We done a lot of living
We working overtime
Don't need another million
You got that goldmine
I love the way you're livin' (hey)
'Cause you're so genuine (genuine)
You got that something special
Didn't you know?
I just need you, you, you (come on, now!)
Met you when I was a lil' country boy
And I never put down that pork chop and salt
Then we fell in love on the boulevard
If you was Jenny, I guess I was Forrest (run!)
Nah, it ain't wrong for you to sing along
Singing this song 'til you die
In this world with a lot of problems
All we need is a little loving
Thank you, thank you, oh, you make me
Thank you, thank you for your love
We done a lot of living (whole lotta)
We working overtime (overtime)
Don't need another million
You got that goldmine (goldmine)
I love the way you're livin'
'Cause you're so genuine (genuine)
You got that something special
Didn't you know?
I just need you, you, you
I need you, you, you, you, you, you, you
Wow, his music touches all generations. Incredible.
"...if you was Jenny I guess I was Forest"
Life is like a box of Jon Batiste. Every flavour you get is a delight for the heart and mind.
Someone: "Blues music is not for this generation.
Jon Baptiste: "Hold my beer" 🍺
I'm betting COVID is going to bring back the blues for a lot of people...
Lol right
Dontcha mean sweet tea? (Or mint julep). 🤗
i wouldn't say this is blues. but its great either way!
@@jacksonmuralt5604 - yeah - don't detect any blues. a little jazz and swing in there. Has a bit of Janelle Monae (Tip on the Tightrope) and Outkast in it. 🤗
I've watched the late night talk show hosted by Stephen Colbert for a long time. Mr. Baptiste has been the show's band leader for many years and that is how I've heard of JB. Sometimes I wish the show would hi-light his talents more but I'm sure the audience gets to see and enjoy it during a commercial break. The man is AMAZING.
I really really wish they would show those, I bet the band is slapping HARD each night
I have NEVER listened to a piece of music with a big smile on my face the entire time! Bless you and everyone in your life that helped/guided you to get here. Unfortunately, only after you won 5 Grammys I found you. So glad I did. Your music gives us hope to keep moving even during such difficult times. Thank you, Jon 🙏🏼. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your wife. ♥️
Lastly… your laugh/smile is so pure and infectious. Congratulations! You are a true artist!
This is exactly what my husband and I said too---the joy is what we all need right now, it does encourage hope.
I just "found" Jon Batiste - grinning from ear to ear!
Jon Batiste everybody... Can’t wait to hear it. When we settle down with this pandemic, I wanna see you perform. Love the positive attitude... stay happy.
I can't imagine the energy at one of his shows. 💚💚💚
Don’t know why I read this in Stephen Colbert’s voice..
Jon has infectious energy...one of a kind.
Hello Melissa
💯!! I can't NOT have a HUGE 😁 on my face when I hear this song or even see Jon! ♥️🥰♥️
I'm 89 AND HE MAKES ME MOVE AND DANCE WITH PAIN AND ALL, love HIS MUSIC.
Keep on dancing!
When life makes sense. Battling cancer, still courageous, You are an immense inspiration to me. I lost my husband, but you are my hope. Please continue to be our hope
FABULOUS! We need Stephen Colbert to make you a showcase of at least a 4 minute Segment/Song EVERYNIGHT! You are TRULY BRILLIANT! TY!
Definitely agree @moonmaidenmama. I keep saying the same thing. He did a Christmas song last year but I think once a week or at least several times a month would be great.
Every Colbert pandemic episode shortchanges us with too little Batiste.
This phenomenon deserves his own show.
@@johnmaclaren422 if you ever can go to a taping, it’s wonderful. You get a solid 30 minutes of batiste and stay human each and every time - truly wonderful music.
He’s such a cutie with the personality to match 🥰
Charming’ and disarmin’!
Goosebumps, song's singing
Great to see Jon finally getting the recognition he so deserves with his Grammy wins. One of the most innovative, talented musicians out there.
Jon Batiste is like the musical equivalent of gravity; he's a wonderful force that brings everything closer in love and unity.
Or you know is a constant burden that makes you shorter and will inevitably shorten your life span.
This wasn't a dig on Jon only a dig on gravity just a fyi.
I so agree!
He is Beauty.
@@jocomfiresin6982 And without gravity, you'd become a limp amorphous mass floating through space. 😆 I'll take my chances with gravity. 👍
@@jagster59 yes but have you ever tried floating in 0g? Quite fun.
Jon Batiste bringing the fire as usual 🔥
I adore Jon Batiste! He exudes LIGHT, LOVE, & HAPPINESS.
✨💗🙏🏼
Grammy made me listen him but dang he deserved it, True artist!!!
Jon Batiste to the rescue!!! This is just what humanity needed right now! A heavy dose of soul and good vibes!
🎤👄🎹🤩🎼❤️🔥
Definitely
Joy personified is Jon Batiste🤗. My "go to guy" for attitude adjustment😉
@@annemneelon1387 he is such an inspiration and a beacon of hope and love 🥰🌞
🎶🎶🎶🎶🎯
Find you a man who randomly starts dancing in an art museum and never let him go.
and introduce him to dad ? nope thanks ....
Samantha, you know what's up 🙌💃😆
@@Aja.S You haven't been in true love yet, it'll come.
Indubitably! Neither hell nor high water could loosen my grip. Hold fast to anyone capable of radiating such irrepressible light. Jon is a firefly; his flight is the speed of sound and his dance an illumination of pure joy.
I started dancing randomly in the middle of an art museum and I met a man that wouldn’t let me go... that man was simply known as Art Museum Security.
First time I'm hearing anything by this guy, and I'm seeing why he won 5 grammys, congrats. Awesome song.
This music shows how happy he is, and he brings happiness to his listeners! He moves us!
"We're closing in five minutes, folks."
😆😆😆 I don't know what it was, but something about this touch just made it _hilarious._
Jon is criminally underrated.
Agreed! I just can't stop listening to this. So upbeat, and songs message matches world right now perfectly. I have always loved Jon, but this just blew my mind.
Amen!
Only by the ones that don't know 😉
4sho he is 🤎🤎✌🏾✌🏾
By whom? I want all their names. These criminals aren't supposed to roam free.
I love this song. I'm so proud of Jon. He is representing Louisiana very well. Go homeboy

Jon Batiste is a national treasure that needs to be protected at all costs!
Love it when UA-cam actually recommends me something this cool, I can't stop listening!
Hahaha same :D This is the first time YT has actually recommended me a song that I have never heard before, guy I was aware of, and I just love it!
same ! arrived here following the Weekend ! Great sound, full of energy !!
Same to same
means you have a great music taste ;)
@@karolinaahk QQ
I love this incredibly talented, refreshing young man......WOW, TO BE YOUNG, GIFTED AND BLACK ❤💖💟💞🎯🎡🎊 HE'S AN ANGEL MADE FROM HEAVEN... his folks must be so proud
Great music sir. My biggest fear is that the world is losing the African American music finger print. The soul stirring stuff which has sustained me all my life.
Agree with you 💯 👍🏿
YESSS!
It's exactly why he created this album, if I'm recalling correctly; he wanted to showcase Black music styles. I love this album so much because it's all over the place!
ever heard of rap? hiphop? JAZZ, for fuck's sake? the "african american music fingerprint" is in no danger of disappearing.
@@peterg5383 went right over your head, didn't it?
This song has that perfect energy that will get you moving.
I am in complete awe of this man's talent. He plays the piano in a way that my years of lessons could never afford me. His talent is innate. His sound is the perfect complement to Colbert's words.
total envy on my part as well-- I have always believed - there can be often some level of talent-- and practice that makes it happen... and then there is TALENT! like olympic gold medal talent which he has
ALL of that awesome talent and such a pure soul, too! LOVE love love Jon Batiste!!! 😃🙏❤️
I can hear touches of Professor Long Hair or Allan Toussaint' in his music.
Never heard of him until last night. Now, I'vw got new playlist material. Great music, makes you feel good, just what we need in 2022.
Colbert show
every night. Jon is there. EVERY night
Been watching him for a long time , giftedars later, now i know why I kept watching this mind-blowing soulful heavenly being vibe.
Gracias a los GRAMMY por descubrirme a este enorme ARTISTA, todo lo que ganó lo tiene más que merecido.
exactamente mis pensamientos!!!
This man is absolutely gorgeous. Talented. Beautiful inside and out.
Jon has kept us all going through the last year with his heart-felt kindness and talent on "Colbert." Thank you, Jon, for the smiles and the tunes!
Perfect sentiment. I really feel that way
Agreed, check out his September 2018 interview on Fresh Air; it gives insight into his musical genius, his wonderful soul, and Bach, whom he describes in a way I had never heard anyone do so 🤔🙂
if you haven't yet already, look up his NPR tiny desk jam on UA-cam; and man the backing band!!
Agree. He is kindness and happiness personified.
Jon batiste-you just make me so happy,your energy is a colorful joyful ooze that brings happy tears to my eyes-thank you💕💕💕
I can't help but think that Jon's spirit is what we need more of right now.
Director: Hey Jon, how much joy do you want in this video?
Jon: Yes.
100% pure vibes!
Yes indeedy 8_)) Pure joy.
To 11.
Every time I watch it gets better! I love it when my face hurts from smiling!
jon: yes yes yes yes claro que yes yes yes yes yes yes
It is a new day, America.
🕺
And blessed be.
@T Electronix : Blessed Be indeed! Every time I see Jon Batiste he gives the world an unfettered and honest expression of joy for all. I think that he keeps/trains the world to be true. I’d love to meet him!
May the lord open
Jon Batiste always turns my grey skies to blue! With a bright shiny 🌞
The end of this video is the best, where they're both collapsing in joy. Done that, the rareness of such moments- shouldn't be so rare.
Congratulations on winning the Grammys well deserved for happy and joy filled music. 😎
He’s too talented to be ignored. It’s time the world shows Jon Batiste some love!
watch Colbert every night for some Batiste tunes!
It did. By giving him a gig with Colbert. He's set for life.
He is not ignored.... But if you think he could be enjoyed by even more people, I agree
You'd like the Fresh Air interview he did September 2018 🤙
@@livb6945 That's exactly what I mean! He's too good of an artist to be loved exclusively!
People will say, “Wow, he’s so different!” He’s actually not! He’s bringing back organic, old school and downright good music!!!!
Preach!
I agree! But they are right that he is different. The difference is the work he has put in on top of his talent.
There is a reason he just got eleven grammy nominations in quite diverse categories.
And it sounds like he is a really nice person, too. He should be considered a national treasure.
Love it!!Break it all back !!!
Yeah but anyways he's good and you have to be smart and good musician to bring this back!
Its a straight up New Orleans funk!!! Point Blank.
I went to a Rolling Stones concert yesterday and Jon opened for them and this was the last song he did. I loved it! He's a great showman
Jihyo always recommends the best artists with the best songs
It was the security man sliding out at the end for me
The little boy with the sax was adorable - so seriously into it.
He obviously used to get down like that back in his day
Yes. 😂
That security guard was Louis Gossett Jr i belive... awesome!
Lol omg yes, I loved it!!!
God, I love this man's energy. Hearing a bit more from him with Stephen Colbert since quarantine, I came to deeply appreciate his warmth and wisdom. And obviously I knew he was extremely talented. But oh my, I did not expect to enjoy his music quite as much as I did.
As masterful as he is with jazz, this was a wonderful surprise. Filled to the brim with that marvelous, effervescent, positive energy that helped me get through rough patches of quarantine.
I may be fan-girling a little bit. I'll stop now. But Jon, in case you should ever see this, thank you.
❤❤❤you said it perfectly...
He's an old soul in a smokin' body. The guy everyone wants at their party. The guy everyone wants as a friend.
I hope he cuts ties with Colbert. Many energies just want to use people. He is gold on his own. You step in the door and should be mindful of who you connect and associate with. Life in general. ❤️
I love him on Colbert. Now I can't stop listening to this album. What talent! And he's adorable
Oh, this is so good, so fun, and so like the kind of music I used to hear at Kingston Mines in Chicago, dancing like crazy at 2:00am! Love it all, including the security guard:)
could win awards as BEST SHORT FILM
I literally could not stop smiling this whole video.
I'm coming from listening to "Freedom" and... I NEEDED this, for real
Me too
Love his art ❤❤❤
I'm right behind you!
Me tooo!!!!! Sooo cool!!!😀 And so fresh!!!!
Same!! Never heard of him till today and I feel like I never lived till today ♥️. This man is an artist
This is literally me right now, new fan!
No conocía su música antes de los Grammys, me llamó la atención después de ver su presentación y de que ganará álbum of the year, pero he de decir que es fabuloso, totalmente merecido.
Jon you are soooo refreshing! A marriage of the new and old and such a BEAUTIFUL embodiment of the best of New Orleans! Thanks for embracing and showing the world your awesome authenticity ❤❤❤
Wow! I just found this by accident! Wow again..... I love the low parts!
I was actually studying when i stopped here😅 and i do not regret lol
if you haven't heard more of johns stuff, i totally recommend :) glad you found this!
Same here! lol
E88i8iii
Sameeeee, first song as I opened UA-cam , meant to flicking be 😩💕✨
The Jitterbug: an African American dance is on full display in this music video. My grandmother told me how she attended parties as a young girl and jitterbugged. Research Harlem Renaissance and breathtaking performers like The Nicholas Brothers (as one classic example) and you will see the greatness of African American dance❤️ This music video is a lovely tribute and I enjoyed watching
NOT African American dance music. It's American aborigine music. That's our music.
@@saturdaygirl9850 Who do you mean when you say "our"?
@@saturdaygirl9850 AA are American and an African American invented the dance.
@@sexyredapple1999 Thats concussing statement ?........ Not one , but a collective of Black people ( including Franky Manning ) invented Lindy Hop . The dance was name after Charles Lindbergh solo flight across the Atlantic . ...YES Black people created this wonderful dance style , YES another beautiful cultural expression now predominately dance by other ethnic groups.
Y'all disappoint me. Put down that bias. We are all American if we live in america. Love is the word, leave some everywhere
Jon is amazing ! He brings back what the world is missing. Thank you!
Getting elements from those golden old times always brings happiness to these dull times 🤗
Watch this for the joy, watch it again for the love.
I would love a collab of Jon Batiste and Janelle Monae. Maybe they've done one. This had "tip on the tightrope" and Outkast vibes. ♥️💕 And of course, good old fashioned swing.
Great observation, I agree 👍
Yes, that would be perfect! I'll just wait right here ....
That collab would be amazing
Omfg yes! This must happen and I will not rest until it does?
Increíble este hombre lo remonta a los años 50 y 40 increíble se lo merecía bien ganado
Buddy, you are one of the best of this century, and we adore and admire you. Don't let it go to your head.
I need him in my life because he's just so genuine
JEN YOU IIIIIIIIINE
When someone says multi-talented this is who I think of.
Donald Glover comes to my mind, but I see your point :)
Should have won all eleven Grammy’s! He’s so good it makes your soul sing ☺️
OMG, THIS IS THE COOLEST!!!! I only knew Jon from watching Colbert but I've subscribed today and playing this again while I type. So very original, energetic, absolutely fabulous. ... blessings and 🐝 happy always..., Jon and family, the band, the crew, love truly IS the opposite of fear! Two days b4 my 73 rd birthday 2023...
I was looking for a song and saw this video. I love Jon and his good vibes. Any way I listened half way through and clicked on another video. All of a sudden I hear. "DADDY, TURN THAT SONG BACK ON!! I was dancing to it!!" My 5 yo daughter was emphatic about it. 10 "play it again!" and after viewing the most genuine and euphoric dancing I have ever witnessed, she finally fell to the floor with the biggest smile. She didn't even see the video!!! It was just the music that got into her. Thank you Jon. You truly are universal and inspirational!!
Chris Schlorman ; Canada here. Wow. That's beautiful
Really sweet story. He's got a happy and uplifting energy. Not surprised that children can pick up on it. I like this song, and also Freedom.
🎶🎶🎶🎶
This guy is INCREDIBLE!!!!
My granddaughter love this song, too! She's 6
he is pure light - Brings joy wherever he goes.
Congratulations to Mr. Batiste . Just what I needed to hear. Thanks for the joy, the style and the class and of course the tunes. Who loves you baby.?!
❤ I Love You Beautiful Heavenly Angel Jon, You Make My Spirit Soar 💫 When I Listen and Watch You👏👏👍💋🤗
Jon Batiste goes to an art show and hears the music in the paintings. I love the way this man sees the world!!

Bruh there wasn’t anything nerdy about him in the beginning lol he looked like a ball of sunshine the entire way through
