YOU KNOW WHAT REALLY GOT ME? The little added chromatic play at 3:15 followed by some guy in the audience saying "What?!" in utter disbelief... The audience guy totally gets me. I want to be his friend!
Yes - I totally agree. Jacob has total mastery of harmonics and is able to experiment with cross-harmony ideas as he plays and sings. It is imaginative musicianship at a way higher level than we would normally expect from anyone. He is a genius who lets us into his world. Plus he is adorable!
This guy is sick in the head, he is crazy good! Lives and breathes music. WOW i didn't think you could top the studio version, but that piano solo. UFFFFF
For all you Gen Zs, Jacob fails to mention that "In My Room" was written and performed originally by the Beach Boys in the early 60s. Jacob does an amazing cover in this video, very talented but not his song.
They're responding playfully to his playful embellishments of the song. As a performer I'd much rather people respond positively to my improvisation than be silent.
I agree with those who say that they should listen, BUT you 've gotta realize that their whoopin' and hollerin' are responses because they're listening. I get there's a time and place for everything. You wouldn't do those things at an opera or a classical concert. However, this ain't no classical space! Since he's playing in New York, I can guarantee that at least a great portion of the people in that room are musicians. It's just a given that anytime Jacob plays a tasteful lick or an awesome run, they're gonna know it and they'll respond accordingly. Which is whoopin' and hollerin' or a "Mmm" or a "What!?" It's just what musicians who really feel the music do. We can't contain ourselves. I sure couldn't on my first time watching this video and I still do on my 10th time. A great example of this in action is this: ua-cam.com/video/lSzICmwmRsA/v-deo.html Which is Gregory Porter honoring Sting by covering his song that he wrote with Eric Clapton, "It's Probably Me." Throughout the video you can see shots of the audience and you can easily tell who the musicians are and those who either aren't or don't feel the music at all.
He's doing so many shows and working hard on a lot of stuff, had a lot to say about what this song mean to him.. Yes, I guess sometimes he forget details...
@@RayRayTheCrayCrayy I think his interpretation is absolutely fine, it just kind of bothers me that alot of people in the comments just see it as his song.
The way I figure it works is that his primary voice goes to mic, and then the KEYS he plays make extra "voices" from that mic according to the chords and notes and harmonies at his fingers?
@@Zimmar Funnily, a guitarist muso mate just showed me yesterday his latest gadget which samples his voice AND guitar chords and then overlays harmonies above and/or below his own voice (as selected). He made a 4 part a capella choral arrangement. Wow, amazing technology. I guess that's sort of what Jacob does ... but at a higher level!

We definitely think alike. I had the same thought watching this just now.
oh my lord that was perfect
my music teacher in college showed me this a few years back. very nice.
that little video artifact at 6:15 is so perfect
Thank you so much i wouldn't have even seen that!!
Where's the applause button?
My goodness this is the best version i've ever heard! Thank you so much for uploading this golden piece!

Beautiful and interesting but Brian 's original creation was superior.
This guy cheats! He uses a microphone !
Noisy crowd. What's the point of yelling, whooping etc.? They should just be listening.
ya maybe, but as a performer it sucks when your audience is silent when you are trying to get them excited. so, its a toss up
Yes, just listen.

The yelling and wooping is traditionally a big thing at jazz concerts

I love that piano solo! It's such a pleasure to hear a kind and intelligent person such as Jacob speak and share his thoughts
Gorgeous solo
I made like 5 trillion nasty faces during that piano solo. Gaaaaaadddaaaaanggg
Was there. rocked it.
The cover is all right but he didn't even mention Brian Wilson
He's doing so many shows and working hard on a lot of stuff, had a lot to say about what this song mean to him.. Yes, I guess sometimes he forget details...

Oh, now I understand your point haha
@@jaydenwhitlen1489 I actually did, thanks know I know !
I thought this was his original piece for a long time, and that was entirely my fault and not his.
3:11 is absolute magic.
if he was famous ya would think he was crazy the way he was talking in the beginning but ya won’t go out help help change climate change
Thank you !!!! I was there in the Balcony :-))))

It sounds like he uses a vocoder on top of his voice. Controlled just the way you guessed.
Je suis certain que meme quand ce mec tousse ( vous remarquerez au passage ma délicatesse..) c'est ENCORE génial! Et moi J'AIME son Harmonizer!!!
a l’avant garde de la musique actuelle, c’est prodigieux! marchons dans ses traces
this is a masterpiece
I have no words
SANG SON!
