There are a lot of these on UA-cam. Most of them take themselves way too seriously. You look like you are having fun and that is infectious. Don't ever stop dancing, don't ever stop being you.
I waste a lot of time on UA-cam. I can, with 100% certainty, say that there was no better way to spend the 4 minutes and 4 seconds. This was absolutely amazing.
Stumbled across this at 5a.m. whilst getting ready for work...and let me just say: 1. Ya got me up and motivated 2. This is amazing ! 3. It's gonna be a great day! 💖Thanks SO much💖
I just discovered this guy today from a link on UA-cam. Wow. Truly impressive! Not just the vocals and harmonies etc. but the video/camera effects. I love this guy! Can't wait to hear more from him.
I saw Toto play in Olympic Park in Seoul back in 1996, and I sang my heart out to "Africa." Boy do I love this song. Sometimes I just want to go back and listen to old favorites to bring me back to those days and put a smile on my face after a long day. Your version is now my go-to for "Africa," and boy does it put a big smile on my face, especially with your dancing!
Just by reading some of the comments in here I can see there are so many people who don't recognize the amount of talent being demonstrated here. That's unfortunate because they are missing out. Truly amazing!
I can’t believe how talented Jared is. He can sing in the same voice as Freddie Mercury, Michel Jackson, Elton John, John Denver and more. And the music he mimics is astounding.
Son,you got it.Your talent is at the top of the art form,you should be a household name,your time is close by. Never never give up, blessings&luck be yours.
15% of the time: enjoying Jared's amazing singing the other 85% : finding the dancing man The top left particularly left me in stitches - he literally sings the 5 beats going into the chorus and the rest of the time is just being spectacular. And mouthing the words. Dear Jared - you are Jared. You may sing with the other Jareds. It is ok.
I hear the drums echoing tonight But she hears only whispers of some quiet conversation She's coming in, 12:30 flight The moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me towards salvation I stopped an old man along the way Hoping to find some old forgotten words or ancient melodies He turned to me as if to say, "Hurry boy, it's waiting there for you" It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do I bless the rains down in Africa Gonna take some time to do the things we never had (ooh, ooh) The wild dogs cry out in the night As they grow restless, longing for some solitary company I know that I must do what's right As sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti I seek to cure what's deep inside, frightened of this thing that I've become It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do I bless the rains down in Africa Gonna take some time to do the things we never had (ooh, ooh) Hurry boy, she's waiting there for you It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do I bless the rains down in Africa I bless the rains down in Africa (I bless the rain) I bless the rains down in Africa (I bless the rain) I bless the rains down in Africa I bless the rains down in Africa (ah, gonna take the time) Gonna take some time to do the things we never had (ooh, ooh)
Stunning arrangement and execution. I don’t know how many people appreciate or understand the technical skill and immense talent involved here but I sure do.
After a stressed busy morning, this really made me smile! I loved it. The dance moves were great, and the soul seen from the awesome multiple performances were great! Thanks!! Hope to see more.
Dude this is amazing, it sound incredible, not to sound rude, but I’m just wondering if you could anymore imagine dragons songs, if you could, I would recommend Polaroid (it one of my favourite songs) But what ever, this is just magnificent dude, great work!!!
I swear Jared I have watched this about 15 times over 6 months! Its so good dude! It brings back my memories from highschool from being in Madrigal. Thank you again for your time! ;-)

Has he done the acapella thing for Bruno Mars songs yet?
ohoho thats good idea... , ok lets make it come true
My brain in math class when music isn't allowed:
My brain during a math test, focusing on anything BUT the actual math:
@@soap_waters hahaha...yes..I had a math test last week...I think I failed because I was literally thinking about music..

OMG ME
Probably the best thing I've ever seen
Jared+Toto+Acapella = Dream
True
#DA übrigens😊💛🖤
Facts
ha! thank you, so glad ya liked it 🙌
You should check Acapella group Perpetuum Jazzile. They have a version of Toto - Africa as well.
How is this not called “Africapella”
Well, it is now!
4bs_ben you son of a bitch you. Genius
Disgustingly underrated comment
OH MY GOD.
How proud were you when you made that joke?
Background dancers are kill’in it.
Bottom left guy is REALLY passionate about them crash cymbals.
bottom left guy: :0 CHHHH
He looks familiar It might be his brother
Lol
Me whenever I play in band and the price has crash cymbals🤣
The background dancing is fine. The constant jumping into and out of frame is annoying. He could just dance there instead of leaving the frame.
I was staring at bottom right guy for a minute thinking: nonsense, he's doing none of this 😒
There are a lot of these on UA-cam. Most of them take themselves way too seriously. You look like you are having fun and that is infectious. Don't ever stop dancing, don't ever stop being you.
Thank you for this comment :) just made my day. More singing and dancing on the way!
The guy on box C deserved the lead vocals. His high notes are way better then the ones of the guy on G.
Jorge Alexandre 😂😂😂
But... i thought they were the same person?
Which one is box C? Which box G?
@@rimusen6364 r/wooosh?
Penguin BS uno reverse card, dw I’m not that stupid

Peter Parker but not all the world knows that some picture guy is secretly Spider-Man
Producer:What instrument do you play?
Jared: *WeLl ItS cOmPliCaTeD*
Producer: but I want to know.
Jared: ummm
Producer:ummm. What
Jared: i play Jared
Producer: what do you mean?
Jared: stop asking questions.
He is the instrument
I AM MY OWN INSTRUMENT

He plays the throat

I never had a negative response to Jared’s videos
well thats good to hear! thanks for always watching :) glad you're enjoying my stuff

@@mm-xk2zl welcome to the club mate
"I bet that's porn" -Most teenagers' parents hahaha
@ Flur-E Fury, I’m so sorry you had to go through that.
I have no clue why they thought that
I can’t believe how talented Jared is. He can sing in the same voice as Freddie Mercury, Michel Jackson, Elton John, John Denver and more. And the music he mimics is astounding.
This song has inspired me to go to church in South Africa so I can pray for the precipitation that happens there.
It’s a yes from me
It's a golden buzzer for me
It's a win for me

Bravo.

You might want to look up Pentatonix.
this looks so intricate and I love how you pay so much attention to every sound and note! I always enjoy your medleys and covers! keep up the work!
I love the dancing! That's what I look like when I play this song!!!
This made my day! I know I am late to the party on this but glad I stumbled upon it.
Stumbled across this. Thank you for the smile and fun. ❤
I hear the drums echoing tonight
But she hears only whispers of some quiet conversation
She's coming in, 12:30 flight
The moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me towards salvation
I stopped an old man along the way
Hoping to find some old forgotten words or ancient melodies
He turned to me as if to say, "Hurry boy, it's waiting there for you"
It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had (ooh, ooh)
The wild dogs cry out in the night
As they grow restless, longing for some solitary company
I know that I must do what's right
As sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti
I seek to cure what's deep inside, frightened of this thing that I've become
It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had (ooh, ooh)
Hurry boy, she's waiting there for you
It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
I bless the rains down in Africa
(I bless the rain)
I bless the rains down in Africa (I bless the rain)
I bless the rains down in Africa
I bless the rains down in Africa (ah, gonna take the time)
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had (ooh, ooh)
That is just stunning ....such an entertaining approach with the multiple "You's" dancing in and out of frame and such a wonderful tone just LOVE it !
This man is underrated.
One of my favourite videos on the internet, hands down.
This video brings me joy on so many levels, and the dancing just adds that much more delight. Excellent job!
“This song was so good hey named a whole continent after it!”
*Milky way candy was so good they named a whole galaxy after it*
are you mad, the continent Africa existed millions of years before it! Lol, how can somebody be so stupid lmao
1000 subscribers without any videos? You are the stupid one here because obviously he already knew that
@@rimusen6364 you're just joking, right? 🤔
Vinícius de Souza yeah lmao
Looks like the guy above you didn’t get it
@@rimusen6364 You shall watch out for dem idiots.... lol
Jared, you are so underrated. You just gave me goosebumps with this talent of yours. Wish I could sing like you! Well done. 🎶
Stunning arrangement and execution. I don’t know how many people appreciate or understand the technical skill and immense talent involved here but I sure do.
Love the dance in random squares....hes really feeling it! Excellent! I like this song...now i love it! Thanks for your video!
THIS IS DOPE
More like dododododododpe
I wish I could like this ten times. So awesome! Loved the background dancing too! Great stuff

LYRICS
↓↓↓↓↓↓
I hear the drums
Echoing tonight
But she hears only whispers of some quiet conversation
She's coming in 12:30 flight
The moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me towards
salvation
I stopped an old man along the way,
Hoping to find some long forgotten words or ancinet melodies
He turned to me as if to say
Hurry boy, it's waiting there for
you
It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had
The wild dogs cry out in the night
As they grow restless longing for some solitary company
I know that I must do what's right
As sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serangetti
I seek to cure what's deep inside, frightened of this thing that
I've become
It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had
{Instrumental break}
Hurry boy, she's waiting there for you
It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa, I passed some rains down in
Africa
I bless the rains down in Africa,
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had
The harmonies are legitimately perfect
This does... put a smile on my face.
👏👏👏👏
Algum brasileiro curtindo essa fera na ACAPELA? 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Are you from this world? 'Cause you're singing every song perfectly🤩I can't believe that!😅😉

This song makes me feel good & comfortable. & confident
Holy shit, bro. This is amazing. Love your voice and your positive attitude/energy. You're killing it! Thanks for making me smile today. :D
