idk why, but to me its just crazy to see all these different people. Knowing they are all real, living their own lives, doing something everyday. Its just weird to think about how much is going on around us in this world and yet we only really know things for what is around us. I don't really know how to explain it, but i watch this video every other month and it just makes me sit and thing how amazing the world is.

[@IAmSaveRio]

It's the awe you get from realizing how fucking insignificant we are. Miniscule, microscopic blips in time. I find it so empowering, reminds me to try and take it easy....it's not the end of the world haha.

Lost my dad to COVID in November, the day before my birthday. Today was one of those mornings when I felt myself falling apart. Found this, played it, and cried uncontrollably. I'm grateful for every moment spent with daddy, most grateful I was allowed to be with him, to hold his hand as he transitioned. This piece is like a picture frame to my final moments with him. Thank you. 💚

[@robertmassucci1]

I dont know about that. This is Incredibly moving and all his music is interesting. However I wonder if we try to categorize it, we might be cheapening it. People are human and jazz is music, let's just call it music. Not fusion or Latin or afro-Cuban or dixieland, Chicago, New York, L.A. or "smooth" just music. Just because there are no vocals doesn't mean its jazz. Jazz is the word for mystery music. (Frank Zappa said that) I'm glad someone is making these sounds they're beautiful. Additionally, your children deserve to hear this music all music not just what is foisted upon us. Support the arts in schools. Do you know how many books and musical instruments could be bought with a fraction of the money most schools spend on athletics. I find and donate instruments to a local school who needs the help. I play this stuff and pass stuff out as a way of opening people's minds.

Vincent: I know you won't read this, but I want to get it out of my chest. Your art as FKJ has been a beacon of light in my life. Your ability to blend genres and create unique soundscapes has not only kept me inspired but also helped me find peace and joy in the toughest times. Your music is more than entertainment to me; it is a transformative experience that lets me transcend and connect my soul with other humans. Thank you for sharing your creativity and extraordinary talent with us. You are a master at what you do. Your music will always continue to be an essential part of my personal journey. I don't personally know you, but I love and appreciate you Vincent.

Wow. I never, ever, ever comment on youtube videos. But here I am writing one now, enticed enough to show my appreciation towards this beautiful piece of piece of art - sound and visuals. How special your journey has been so far, and how lucky we are to view some of your moments against your serene melody. Not often do I watch a music video until the end, but yours I could watch 100x more times. Well done! p.s Apple should soo sponsor you for sure ha!

I discovered this music in my car. It literally took my breath away, I was breathing with difficulty listening to this pure beauty, each note being so right, so true. Thank you for this pure moment of awe.

[@straitpepperdiet]

A genuine experience is priceless. Sometimes I dream about the life I will be able to live when I have that career, girl, money. What good will it do me if I push the people in my life away to chase some dream. In the end, it's those moments we can never get back.

[@dehibler4811]

There's something about these moments in time that stuck with me. A beautiful mountain view, an oddly colored building, a nice dog that came to say hi, a modified car. They all seemed so mundane, but I remember them clear as day, because in that moment I was filled with joy. This video really helped me remember those great things I've seen. The great moments I've spent with family and friends, but also reminds me that I have so SO much more to see. Thank you FKJ.

This is by far one of my favorite videos ever! I just love that simplicity and the song that goes with it is purely amazing in my opinion and it really goes well with the video. i know im late but wuteva i just had to comment cause it's fresh

[@crazyface108]

it's 2 am, and i'm thinking of french music and breakfast i've written multiple poems now and my eyes are starting to close music was always something i felt poems just putting the words where the tunes didn't catch so i figured maybe if i mixed the two i could figure it out just a little bit more but all i've done, is filled the void with something, nothing too much and maybe nothing that would fix anything but i got out and tried to be honest that's all music and poetry is honesty to the heart and to the soul. I wanted so much from this and maybe that was too much to ask it always was. and yet i cant help but wonder and dream that wherever it takes me i will find my way back. so much of me is planning every second of day preparing for disappointment and sadness but never the right kind. i am so tired of being wrong i want to be surprised by love again, i want sugar filled kisses and the warm body at my side reminding me even in nightmares i wasn't alone. That's all i ever really wanted

This really makes you appreciate how diverse and magical the world we live on is. The video captures beautiful scenes that are just so different from each other landscape wise yet all of it is on the same planet ( i know this is obvious but sometimes you get used to seeing the same places over and over again and forget how crazy beautiful the other places of the world are :) ). Couldn't help myself but I just had to watch the video while listening. Pure beauty. FKJ you are amazing :D

[@chauminhpham6351]

I felt like dying today. Watching this video makes me sad and happy because there is so much that I haven’t experienced. To travel, see the world and to learn about new culture was my dream. It still is. It now feels like a lost dream because I attached it to someone I loved and now they are gone. They get to see the UK and all the cool places before graduation because they are in a position where they can travel and come back to a full time job. Meanwhile, I am stuck in school. Going back home is hard bc of COVID. Suddenly all the dreams didn’t make sense anymore because it has been a while since I traveled, and since I was hoping to travel the world with someone. There’s a piece of Vietnam in this video, my hometown. Hope to come back home soon, and hope to be brave enough to travel the world and keep on living.

[@chauminhpham6351]

[@1205xkiller]

Today, with software such as Premiere or Final Cut, you have an effect to stabilize your images. I think he mostly used that, because a lot of images were trembling, but not in a natural way, which made me think he used those kind of thing to proceed. Still, today filming with a smartphone is quite easy too. The format is good, it's usually in 1080p, you can buy objectives for your phone and steady/glidecam and tripod too, so, nothing incredible about that. Still, it's a beautiful video there, with beautiful images all along.
