Takes a lot to truely witness someone. Your mind not clouded with your own prejudices, opinions, beliefs. Simply to be there with someone where they're at, see them for what they are. Oddly, the most potent gift you can give to someone is your full attention. Ive noticed that this is why Jacob is Jacob, his capacity for unbridled attention to whatever is placed in front of him. Big or small, doesn't matter... the same love, the same attention. There's a lot to soak up from you my friend. Thankyou 🙏

[@antonhamacher]

beautifully put ❤

[@stephmccann8530]

Hear hear. Excellent observation, and so articulately put, thank you ❤👏

[@blackburn5033]

These are wonderful words.

[@heronkite]

This jazzy version sounds more Jacob than the official version, but love them both--thanks for inviting us to your X'mas party!

[@frankharp]

Listen to the lyrics and maybe you can find the offense in your “perception”.

[@TiffanySoulbird]

I love music but I've been burned out by life and in survival mode a long time. I started listening to less and less music over the years because I couldn't bring myself to create and it left me very unfulfilled. Watching Jacob speak and perform on YT has honestly brought something alive in me again. I can listen to his music and I don't feel that pain like before. I feel like my teenage self who played french horn in middle school and wanted to become a songwriter. I find myself hanging on his every word, even the ones I don't fully comprehend. It's like magic. I'm so thankful. I wrote a song yesterday and that hasn't happened in awhile.

[@connie2623]

I feel the same way. You should be proud of yourself ❤

[@TiffanySoulbird]

@@connie2623 That's so sweet, thank you! We don't give ourselves enough credit as artists/creative people.

[@MrPeeooh]

Great! Keep up the good work!

[@davebeharrymusic]

As a piano player myself, the sheer accuracy and emotion of this playing is off the charts. I don't understand how he is still getting better....I thought that would be impossible. Inspirational :D

[@jethrocoups6436]

All of Jacob's acoustic piano versions are the best imo

[@lena.dymytrenko]

and what about his pants ?

[@alonelyshrub]

Spoken like a true Jethro 🐊

[@darklight8774]

2:51…that key-changing arpeggio is absolutely ethereal

[@Stewartist1]

I am so excited for Djesse Vol. 4! Only 70 days!

[@stellaelucesonobelle]

I started to cry immediately after the music started. I love both versions but this one sounds more Jacob❤ You are truly amazing✨

[@ellastineman8841]

it’s got the same vibes as the sun is in your eyes 🥹 i need this version on platforms right fricken now

[@PaarthGuptaYT]

THIS!!

[@viviateller]

This like healing balm for my soul ❤️🥹

[@salliemae9284]

Jacob you are amazing !!!!!!! God bless you always and your beautiful family I remain your huge fan from New York Merry Christmas and Happy New Year May the positive energies of peace love light happiness well being success and abundance in all forms follow you all the days of your life . And to whoever may read this I am hoping for the same for you .

[@MusicforYoungViolinists]

A gift, thank you, beyond what typing on a computer and making letters appear on a screen can communicate. Thank you for being you! People all over the globe pray for you.

[@FinalEyes777]

Unbelievable. Legendary. Inspiring. Thank you.

[@natalieburney1110]

Forever an inspiration! Thank you Jacob for your beauty. Happy Holidays and a very Happy New Year to you all!🙏🏼

[@selina4]

I am so looking forward to seeing you in concert in the Netherlands next year, Jacob. What a fantastic rendition! Wishing you and your loved ones a merry Christmas and lots of health, happiness, prosperity and inspiration for 2024 🎄⛄

[@YOOITSSTUMKYTHEPATHETIC07]

All I want is to close my eyes and listen this song for hours

[@infour44]

This guy brings light into even the most obsidian dark of days. Spellbinding

[@MatthewDovetail]

You're the outstanding performer you've always been, this is amazing as usual but you make it in a way one never gets tired of. Personally, though, I'd just love you to stop walking the commercial path, please, and just...keep coming back home! =)

[@Shazbut-he3ne]

He's the kind of thing that happens when you're totally sure of your direction in life, you have all the resources needed, and you have little to no fear of failure because you're ultimately valuing your innate potential not how that potential manifests in the circumstances. It's cognizance of immortality really, but I doubt he'd openly talk about it

[@ancientfifer]

Really want to see this legend live! Come to Colorado in 2024!

[@jasuncionrodriguez2098]

Noticed a little riff he used previously in his version of Fix You - Coldplay. At 3:27

[@marysusansusan]

Love the way your lower register and mix are sounding on this ❤

[@margaridapinho-jq5cc]

Admiro muito o talento deste jovem...Feliz Natal!!! E boas músicas ❤

[@dantellywelyn]

Glad to be here for this

[@Artyshell53]

How to make a soul feel warm and fuzzy xxx THANKYOU ❤

[@Joshsclips]

Can't wait to finally see such awe-inspiring, incredible talent live in St Petersburg May 6th :) gotta get pit seats for an event this monumental

[@user-sz9mf6fb6w]

I'm going to see u at the 02 next Yr for the djesse 4 tour , you're soo good, love this song

[@korgaupisc129]

Always a delight when he just goes nuts on the piano

[@banakula]

Incredible.

[@gregonline6506]

Have some great time, wherever you are. Thx for sharing your beautiful music. Looking forward to see you in Germany in November.

[@Sol_Weird]

Beautiful

[@altruman]

It's hard to know what Mozart might have accomplished given access to today's technology, or if the benefit of Herbie Hancock, Quincy Jones and others would have been formative influences, as they seem to have been for Jacob, but this young man is music incarnate. A beautiful young genius. Unparalleled.

[@naochan178]

I JUST LOVE THIS SO MUCH ! ! ! Thank you for sharing it Jacob🙏🏻🌈 It’s one of my dreams to go your live! Please come to Japan also!

[@AnthonyCollierMusic]

[@darklight8774]

the part starting from 2:29 sent me to heaven, i really like the Eb and B natural notes in the chords at 2:33

[@erikadanielle3272]

[@user-fh6by5ro8s]

Deep 👍🏽

[@saul5522]

I like ir!!!!!!!

[@koopylupa6647]

WOW

[@PaarthGuptaYT]

This version is definitely more Jacobean than any other version of this song.

[@mikemolaro4198]

Beautiful. The studio version i just hear as a typical pop song. Does nothing for me. But beautifully done here, Jacob.

[@PaarthGuptaYT]

I totally agree!!

[@onesyphorus]

1:19 ayye 🔥

[@andressaavedra6796]

Wow

[@jonasc1221]

I was here.

[@EliasGitterman]

Hi Jacob

[@kiki7723]

😃😃😃

[@onesyphorus]

1:58 damn!

[@halfajacob]

Very reminiscent of Jacob's Coldplay 'Fix You' cover. If you like this and haven't heard that - go and find it.

[@tuomasharri9141]

Yes, around 3:27 I thought for a sec he was gonna transition into that. :D

[@marcelaubut176]

All the possibilities in four minutes

[@AGoodVibe]

Music unbridled.

[@banized7323]

You would be epic with a Bari sax

[@lethuan1902]

difficult to listen but i think he's genius Rarely does so

[@mrjoes]

He uses the left pedal! 🤯

[@andrespuerta7137]

ya tengo los crocs, solo me falta el talento 😁

[@fbqudcks826]

hi 👋

[@arnoudh6203]

Yeah this version is definitely superior to the "full" version

[@PaarthGuptaYT]

Agreed.

[@agicaly2012]

Almost more beautiful than the version with Shawn and Stormzy🎉❤

[@mikemolaro4198]

So interesting. I find the studio version as dull as any other pop song. This piano version here is sooo much better. Ha. To each their own. That's the beauty of music.

[@jessiefullermusic]

dj unkle guxler was here

[@GizzyDillespee]

Did you ever know you liked a song, even when something rubbed you wrong the first time you heard it?

[@GizzyDillespee]

I was in a bad mood, or the official video reminded me of a commercial, or something superficial like that happened

[@arnoudh6203]

​​@@GizzyDillespeeyeah same here, hopefully ill start to enjoy it too at some point

[@Dianelee999]

It’s tragic that the audio is so bad on this. Half the vocals are lost and saturation on others. Feh 😣

[@diogovasconcelos3355]

First

[@janklas7079]

What I really hate about this. Jacob you have an unprecedented talent. One might even say Genius. It's such a shame that you don't use that talent to actually make music, but basically only to make display cases for your talent.

[@franciscluster]

Hello from France, Jacob what are you waiting for to write a real symphony or a concerto with a large orchestra? With your harmonic knowledge, it's a waste not to use it to create more substantial works than small songs. Right now you are choosing too much for the ease of a commercial product. Come on, 2024 challenge: ok to create a symphonic work of around forty minutes and thus become the new Rachmaninov or Debussy?

[@imnotmac09]
