[@scruffyTJ1234]

Jacob is taking a much more minimalist approach to the songwriting here and it's working very well for him-- he's obviously a master of his craft but I think that he has struggled to make songs that really hit emotionally because of how harmonically complex and alienating they are. This song is the best of both worlds; there are some incredibly interesting harmonies but the majority of the song is just simple and perfectly executed. I love this

[@christina5151]

Nick Larsen I... i’ve never seen a comment so true

[@MHSPatriot2005]

"In every soul is the need to grow older, to speed up the passing of time. I don't know why, but it makes me cry." In a video on some social media platform, Jacob briefly mentions the insignificance of being alive (in what I am assuming is a reference to our current understanding of the Universe and our finite place within) and embracing each moment because your 'life' has no more significance at the end than it does in the beginning. That sentiment spoke to me on a fundamental level and the previously mentioned lyrics only amplify his philosophy.

[@ryanward6230]

But have you considered creating your own children's show, with each episode featuring some music education and some philosophical discussion? It would seem the greater your influence on this world, the better off we'll all be.

[@fluffyfluffykatz]

This would be the most beautiful thing ever produced

[@josed.vargas3961]

Jacob Rogers

[@laurazeitner9700]

I saw this comment a couple of months ago and the idea has stuck with me-not as something Jacob should do, necessarily, but as a thing that should exist. Have YOU considered creating such a show? What would it be like?

[@ryanward6230]

I would be willing to handle the philosophy/ethics portion, which would start off elementary - Golden Rule, Categorical Imperative, Original Position (Rawls) - and graduate to some foundational topics I would rely more on expert guests to cover - social and environmental justice, economics - moving then onto "core" philosophies of free will skepticism, modern physics, computer science, world religions, etc. I believe we could infuse each topic with a related musical theme, and I would need to rely on someone much more expert there too. Again, I nominate Jacob the master.

[@erinaa9486]

Oh please, people, make it happen... I refuse to send my baby to a school where life and happiness will be stamped from his soul and mind, and I think I got him covered in literature, but I'm not musical at all, and I don't want his education to be lacking in musical theory...!

[@SwanginSpurs]

It feels insufficient to say I love this song. I love it more than I can say in words because it pushes into a part of me words don't reach; it converses and resonates in a wholly different language. It moves me as though, despite my loss for words or explanation, I have suddenly understood everything. It tells me what I cannot possibly know, but am certain we all know. With strokes of care and aliveness, it softly invokes the universal. I am still not doing it justice, simply can't conjure praise with any precision. I can't claim to speak this song's language, but I have somehow still heard it, and more than I could ever articulate, felt it. And that is the language that runs beneath all other languages. This song, somehow, saw my heart. I will never be independent of it now that I have experienced and continue to experience its gentle wonder in seismic revolutions. Beyond humbling to have something this intimate in a public sphere 😭

[@koellekind]

Thank you for sharing your experience and for trying your best to describe something so indescribable. I do not (yet?) feel the same way about this song, but it makes me want to listen some more times to see if I can figure out what moved you so intensively about it. And if I don't that is also fine. It is still a very good song. :)

[@benwolfe8139]

Jacob's music expresses innocent childlike wonder, creativity, and joy. His music is honest to the reality that we are all children on the inside; pure, innocent, joyful, bright, loving, playful, free, safe. The body has nothing to do with these qualities.

Amazing music as usual. But the visuals, oh man! Filmmakers arise! Let's figure out how did they shoot this clip. A stationary 360 camera maybe. What do you think?

[@elea5668]

I was looking for a comment about the filming ! It's so magical how it really feels like a subjective point of view ! Every move of the camera is somehow curved (imagine doing a wide panoramic shot with your eyes, but not moving your body, so you turn your head from left to right, and you end up with a slightly curved shot), so is the image (kind of stretchted and curved at the same time, mimicking the human eye), and even when the camera is not moving there is a rocking movement going on so it feels like this is a real person watching. Plus, the fact that all of this happens with the frame and the image (the stretching and curving of the image) makes it feel like YOU are the person floating around and looking at all of this! But I am sorry I don't know what are the means used to make this video, I'm just a student in drama and film; and I wanted to share my very excited feelings about the video with someone (we could even start talking about a short film at his point I think, because you can make 2 minutes-long short-films, I have been an extra on a few of those). But I'm sure there is a lot of editing done (as well as a special camera), so many effects may have been done in post-production. (Also, I'm sorry, I'm french, and I'm too lazy to re-read what I just wrote to check for misspelled words and syntactic errors [and I don't have the time to do so, because I signed a "working contract" today so I'm going to celebrate with my friends !]) Have a nive evening, night, day, afternoon depending on your location ! [JUST A QUICK EDIT ! I have a guess, maybe it's too extravagant, but I'll try ! You know how in the opening scene of the The Social Network, the film about Mark Zuckeberg, there is a shot of him running down a street (in the opening scene, during the opening credits) in a very long uninterrupted pan shot, well, the director likes complicated things, and there is a building where the camera is supposed to be, so it's not possible to use a crane to shoot it. So he installed cameras on the front of the building and all the images they made created a super wide image. From this image he recreated the movement of a pan shot not moving through space but through images. What I mean is that maybe, I don't even know if that's possible, but maybe the video was made by using several cameras standing still (to recreate the 360 feel), they synchronized the films and they created the movement afterwards in post-production, which would also make it handy to have several Jacob Collier in different outfits and different places (because the camera wasn't moving you can superimpose the images more easily.) Could someone who knows something about film making please tell me if that would be possible ? The shot I'm talking about starts at 21sec and ends at 54sec of this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/ronHd32dnNCdsK8 ]

[@danhenricus]

A professional 360 camera set up would be overkill in my opinion. This can be done with one camera, since it is mostly editing.

[@Jarnagua]

My guess is 2d compositing in 3D space with simulated camera moves synchronized with occasional practical camera movement. It's very clever. They spent a lot of time planning these shots. I love it.

[@canmurtezaoglu]

@@Jarnagua That can be true as well concidering there are not many lighting inconsistencies that we can read. In any case, A LOT of has time spent on this as you said. Incredible job!

These lyrics.... I find that the level of mastery a musician (and any artist) has is directly linked to how honestly and purely they can convey feelings in their music and words. I have learned things about myself listening to music because (as Jacob says) it can describe feelings I find difficult to explain. And it is ESPECIALLY cool that whatever feelings YOU (jacob) were pouring into this song, could be totally different to the feelings I felt listening, because we are all so unique and complex. THIS is what I LOVE about carefully crafted music, such as this. All my thanks to you for helping us to experience our own lives a little more honestly and THUS with more JOY!

Beautiful lyrics, beautiful production in general, it remind me of the songs that a band called vos veis did in my country, they always get into my heart when i hear them.
