Esperanza Spalding - I Can't Help It

[@iranterres]

Legendary performance. Perhaps one of the best renditions in the recent history of jazz.

[@omko73]

Iran Terres fully agree !!

[@aliasanew3398]

Not perhaps... It's most definitely so. 💖

[@tshidisomakoti5904]

Facts

[@maxhonorato8638]

Without a doubt it is! But the full concert disappeared from KZbin. Do you know where I can find it? I love this concert! She got everything right! @@aliasanew3398

[@dimplez1ish]

Her voice is an instrument all on its own

[@debralynnpaxton5238]

This band is amazing! Esperanza Spalding is one of the most gifted artists to ever grace the stage :D

[@felixramirez6898]

That`s some of the best sax playing I`v ever heard .

[@DonEkz21]

The bass line is perfection Love it!!

[@33nce]

In terms of bassist, Esperanza and Thundercat are my favourites.

[@tommykeith6589]

Noah VICTOR WOOTEN IF HE PUTS ON HIS GLOVE WITH THE 5 STONES!! ESPERANZA WOULD GET SNAPPED AWAY!!(LOVE'EM BOTH THO!)

[@arisumego]

@@tommykeith6589 no need to compare, they’re different kinds of artists

[@aiysissimmons6790]

i love the back ground singers they harmonize so well

[@jazz4asahel]

A standard fretted Fender Jazz bass? Like this more and more. Bass lessons from my friend Esperanza.

[@flyingspaghetti369]

jazz4asahel MIM Fender fretless with plastic line. Watch where's she put her fingers, not between fret, but on top of the line.

[@edwincancelii2917]

I love that white female background singer. I love that lead singer on the bass guitar & that song, too. I also love that alto saxophone solo.

[@marywilson6354]

I know MJ, would have loved it too

[@Puppyfur44]

And Stevie, who wrote it, must love it too!

[@monibreed7226]

That's the incredible Tia Fuller!

[@dimplez1ish]

That girl is a beast on the sax, wow!

[@PrinceJayWhey]

Esperanza Spalding is great and so Tia Fuller

[@dalejohnsonsr7304]

Incredible. Amazing bassist/singer/composer/arranger ect. AND INTRODUCING MS FULLER she is a cold attractive BEAST!

[@thesoledad25]

Ah, thank you for the sax player's name.

[@beigerag3]

THAT SAX THOUGH!

[@UnopinionatedBystander2393]

She's...LAWD!

[@newsomeq5a]

The group kept that together... that's jazz.

[@raxsnuck]

Tia Fuller, she plays sax for Beyonce too.

[@adrianbarnett534]

WOW!!!!! Speachless. Gonna watch it through again now. Amazing

[@tshidisomakoti5904]

This still feels as good as the first time I heard it, if not even better. Legendary performance. Tia got possessed

[@FCntertainr]

Tia Fuller just killed that tune! She makes me feel so proud to know of her. My girl for sure is a beast on tha alto sax and a wonderful lady. Esperanza and Tia are keeping this music going!!!

[@marcania1]

Making a cover is not just as simple as you expect, creating a new version with your own vision of music is not so simple, and when the cover creates his own new version of the original song that sounds great! This set reminds me Family Dinner's Snarky Pumpy sets... I love the way Esperanza plays bass...That's great, jazzy, funky, smoothy...And voice is also fantastic... Thanks for the music

[@matthopkins2024]

That was some hardcore spiritual jazz right there. That's all I gotta say about that lol.

[@RCGB31]

I got Goooooosebumps !!!

[@TonyExumJr]

Tia Fuller....aint she incredible!!

[@aliasanew3398]

The fact that the crowd didn't go crazy after that.... Just hurts me.

[@virgilrobertsjr7870]

This musical arrangement was immaculate! ☆☆☆☆☆ 💯

[@RichardMorrisonBaritone]

Stevie, Michael, Esperanza

[@davidasbhd5936]

YEAHH

[@tommykeith6589]

Richard Morrison NOT TIL' U HEAR MAYSA'S VERSION!!BETTER THAN MJ'S SORRY😢

[@cedricjacobs333]

AND WILL DOWNING PLZ

[@michaelconner1771]

Eldra DeBarge could manage this song quite capably also.

[@davidmorel373]

that chord progression on the piano from 5:32! just wow!

[@efraingonzalez731]

A tremendous talent indeed! Wow!

[@daranjeri]

I was there at Massey Hall - had such an amazing time!!!

[@MonseRey0627]

I Love it! that girl can play some serious sax!

[@purplehippie1]

She blew the hell out of that hell...LITERALLY!!! Just amazing!

[@ericnettles8375]

I love this by her! You go girl!

[@tshidisomakoti5904]

This will forever be legendary

[@mariakoby9467]

[@hallisWorldVision]

Hey there Love 😊 I'm just up watching and listening - And falling asleep in between. Listen to this beautiful version of MJs "I can't help it" 😘 Espe on bass Tia fuller on Sax 😊 Love this!

[@UnopinionatedBystander2393]

This queen, here! She did a private dress rehearsal for the musical theater and vocal students at my college 5 years ago. She changed our worl perspective, she was so mesmerizing. She's fantastic in every way (she requested that we come to watch. It was a Friday and she knew we were on campus getting ready for midterms. Angel.)

[@farrahrotman]

most responsive bassist and attentive performer

[@viavsaragov]

Esperanza and the band are perfect. As usual) And girl with saxophone plays amazing phrazes. Perfect time, fills, etc. All is perfect. I'm really dont like sax, but she does the supreme things with that instrument.

[@tommykeith6589]

Виктор Авсарагов I'M REALLY DON'T LIKE SAX U REALLY DON'T LIKE SPELLING EITHER IT'S I REALLY DON'T LIKE THE SAX? BUT PARTY ON GARTH!!!

[@variousspaces4663]

Please Esperanza Share more of you with us...

[@marywilson6354]

love her and her Unique Style always ,different.

[@yahwehtorres3332]

Your beautiful !!!

[@JusTVIDSE]

what a journey this was

[@liordavid1550]

i can't help but love her.

[@zsoltpaulgolenya7645]

Loved it! Sax was awesome, although I have to admit I was waiting for others to solo also... Pretty unusual in a 10 min jazz tune for the same instrument to take every solo. Jeff was teasing in the background, was waiting for him to break out! Nevertheless, I loved it!

[@ThePinkmufin]

Just. Perfect.

[@mrdhilton]

Tia Fuller is a beast!!!

[@buffplums]

What talent this woman has … and all of the band being at one being able to jam like that….

[@ekow9889]

[@MinisterLynne]

Esperanza is quite the vocalist...wow!

[@MaliVinnyB]

YES QUEENS!!!

[@MatSmithLondon]

Incredible. That sax. (Although sounds like a cat died at 3:59, who was responsible for that? I guess that's live music and I wouldn't have it any different...)

[@obamoro74]

Im in love with this p.y.t . , she super classy in a class of her own !! Then 2 top it all off a talent beyond the reach of even the greatest Musicians and Vocalist out here. Emily if you read these comments .., Set a date luv im ready .. Dreams do come true ... ?*)

Awesome, Esperanza, just totally inspiring and that first sax run at 1.20 minutes, like whoa, just set it all up, who is the sax player? She needs more air time.

[@elanfoster767]

FYI she was Prince favorite person...she is very special. They used to just "hang" out. How cool is it to be a young girl and his purpleness just wants to "hang" with you. And she didn't blow him up on social media. They were just "cool"😏

[@aliasanew3398]

HOW DO I LOVE THIS MORE THAM THE ORIGINAL *RENDITION* AND THEY'RE BOTH BY HER!!!???!!
