Nina this is Guy Sebastians brand new song kzbin.info/www/bejne/sIeVg31sr96Wfrcsi=I5-MtJYXtvP_61mI

[@scorpio2630]

Loved ur reaction. I got really emotional as well. Their techniques/performance were STUNNING. In love with both artists. So pure. We need change and we need change now!

[@ninaschofield]

It’s a really emotional performance - sending hugs to you!

[@Casin]

I've heard this song dozens of times and that cry at the end gets me every time.

[@iocomposer]

Lovely. I see Jacob every time he comes to Los Angeles. His last show Tori Kelly and John Legend came out and sang Bridge Over Troubled Water... even better than on the album. Felt like I was witness to history.

[@stewiegriffin993]

Ooof thanks for reacting to this one, love both Jacob Collier and Aurora. Hope you do more Jacob too, he's truly a gem. I recommend Somebody to Love (Queen cover) Live from Lisbon :)

[@ninaschofield]

Thank you, yes he’s so good, thanks for the suggestion!

[@timgrodesky4694]

In every way that was STUNNING.

[@ninaschofield]

Agreed 👌🏻

[@nerve60]

Nice raw and emotional reaction! Aurora does it to me quite a bit. She is without a doubt a Soul Healer!

[@Gtsafe67]

Thank you for the reaction , I found this very emotional . Love Aurora and this was a perfect collaboration for an important thing

[@ninaschofield]

Thank you so much for watching and commenting 🙏🏻

[@jonathanwetherell3609]

Yes, the power of that sung yell is visceral. Aurora did one on the Vevo arrangement of "Soul with no King" but dueted, it is more than twice as powerful.

[@dlbwoodbury]

Hello Nina, thanks for this! I, too am gobsmacked by this miraculous performance. Two prodigies become musical geniuses together! I hope they collaborate again. Jacob has worked with a lot of wonderful singers, but AURORA is so much more than a singer.

[@ninaschofield]

Yes they could do so many other wonderful performances together, let’s keep our fingers crossed 🤞🏻

[@dlbwoodbury]

I, too, always weep when I hear this. Weep for the beauty these two have created and for the fate of the earth. Miraculous as their music is, it will take an even more profound miracle to save our Mother Earth.🌏

[@joar93]

the scream/cry

[@nicklasborjesson2977]

Good to see that you care.

[@princemattiey]

I've been hoping you would do this one since it came out a few weeks ago. You really made my day. Thanks. Great job as always

[@ninaschofield]

Thanks so much for watching!

[@HappyTreeHappy]

Another great reaction. They need to do more collaboration.

[@ninaschofield]

Yes agreed!

[@piscean5376]

Absolutely awsome reaction, what an incredible duet 👏 with a strong message,yeah got me too. ❤

[@ninaschofield]

Thank you so much for watching 🥰

[@simonturner138]

It gets me every time 😢

[@user-bn2uh2cr6t]

Thank you for your beautiful reaction, i really needed notes, please do more reaction from Aurora, you know that she is really talented ❤🍀

[@ninaschofield]

Thank you, I will 😊

[@Tarkus_]

Thanks for the lovely reaction, Nina. 👍🌍🤟

[@ninaschofield]

Thanks for watching!

[@renatacaramaschi445]

Thanks Nina .. ocean of emotions ..like the message ..Aurora my dream ..Jacob so talented ..

[@wiktoriapaak1011]

Their voices together, their facial expressions, the melody. To me it sounded like the essence of fragility and strength at the same time. Just what we, humans, can be. It also sounded to me like a message that united, we can really accomplish a lot and change the fate of life on Earth. I was tearing up here right with you Nina

[@ninaschofield]

😢🥰

[@lillm6874]

Omg, I’ve been waiting for this, thanks 🥰 To me this is perfection in every single way, and that primal scream + images always makes me emotional🥺💙💚 It’s my favourite collaboration❤️

[@SebastianSanchez-sb6vz]

I´ve been watching a lot of vocal coaches and your comments are my favourite. I liked a lot when you played the parts on the piano. Also very cute you shed some tears at the end because shows your great sensitivity. Aurora and Jacob absolutely delivered. I may have misheard but you may not have listened much of Jacob? If you haven´t you should dig deep because you will go to a new dimension. If you have then ignore this. Thanks for that video!

[@paulkossak7761]

Beautiful, and an extremely important message.

[@musiaki]

Thx for the review of our Music/recording work , always Nice to see thoses positives réactions to sounds 🎤🎤❄️🙏

[@coralesangiovannibattistastezz]

I love Aurora and Jacob ❤❤❤ kisses from Italy 😘😘😘

[@dnslighter6982]

Audio was primarily by MIT's Dr. Ben Bloomberg, who has been Colier's co-producer since about 2010. Both co-inventers of Collier's Harmonizer, which is the mainstay of Collier's live shows. Note that most or all of the mics that they are currently using are not off the shelf. Modified Shure, Newman, and sensiBel/Sennheiser. The sensiBel mics are optical MEMS, which is cutting edge. One is likely burried in that strange collar. Until recently, Collier's goto mic was an off-the-shelf, consumer-grade Shure sm58. I can't find the source, but Bloomberg mentioned that the takes of this song were frequently stopped to retune the piano and for Collier to simplify his keyboard intentions for his very cold hands.

[@ninaschofield]

Thank you so much for this info - so interesting to read. And also you make a good point re the cold and how they handled that; totally understandable that Jacob had to adapt his placement on the keys. The cold really affects everything! Thanks for watching 🙏🏻

[@art_by_accident]

Very interesting - and the biggest miracle of all is that this was actually _done live_! These days, almost everything you see is lip syncing to prerecorded vocals, and in far less demanding circumstances than this. Even on stage a lot of singers do that! Aurora and Jacob could easily have done that and gotten away with it. Genuine artists don't compromise. Absolutely fantastic and what a great example to set.

[@panchiolarranaga1616]

Hola Nina Preciosa, good to have you back with Aurora and now, with Jacob, another special and unique artist of our times...these two together make so much sense and we were also blessed with this beautiful gift what a privilege!........ Hope to see you soon with Aurora, Jacob and maybe if the Universe stays in the correct path Luv and thanks for making today my day since so early got juice for the rest of this day

[@ninaschofield]

They are indeed a fantastic duo. Thank you so much for watching!

[@Geralt26]

Another great reaction and comments to the amazing collaboration. Of course I love Aurora but both artist are amazing here :). I love harmonies and how both voices work here together. Ps. I think there is a moment where Aurora loosed a balance a little on the platform (in the moment when she moved the hand up faster), good she did not fall into this freezing water.

[@ninaschofield]

Oh gosh I missed that, I’ll have to rewatch, as you say thank goodness she stayed upright!

[@daviddyer6751]

Such a beautiful performance and a beautiful review by three beautiful people. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!

[@ninaschofield]

Thank you!! 🥰

[@Yendar2]

I waited for this and my thumb up was faster than the side was loaded! 😀

[@ninaschofield]

Aw thank you!

[@-R.Gray-]

The opening piano notes, along with the scenery, reminded me a bit of the song "The Ice Shelf" from the solo piano album "Antarctica"(1986) by jazz pianist Richie Beirach, who's playing brought to mind icicles.

[@JaapFilius]

Real beautiful. And that end..... WOW!!

[@Roy-mw5js]

Beautiful ❤

[@peterculbertson8547]

I didn’t get emotional until you did and that scream is so full of passion. I loved the piano on this and Jacob’s voice was beautiful. I had only heard of him through this song and immediately went to check out his oeuvre. Aurora was magnificent as always. As was your reaction.

[@ninaschofield]

Thank you so much - I’m the same as you and haven’t yet discovered a lot of Jacob’s back catalogue but absolutely must now!

[@Einyen]

The closeup camera view and audio recording seems to be in one take, and when Jacob arrives at the platform, we never see the right side of the platform, so Aurora is probably waiting there. Then they recorded another video take (or more than one) from far away without the closeup camera man present, and added clips from that view during the song. Jacob is being called a genius of musical theory, the Mozart of Gen Z (except he is Gen Y / Millennial from 1994), and he has won 6 Grammys, one for each of his 4 albums and for 2 other things I cannot remember.

[@ninaschofield]

It was very cleverly done! Thank you for the extra info on Jacob 🙏🏻

[@dnslighter6982]

Some of the video work was drone. Elsewhere it was mentioned that there were frequent stops. I don't know about this song, but most videos released under Collier's name have had extensive post-recording studio audio work.

[@carloshuevaespinilla8095]

Great reaction 🦋💚💚🦋

[@ninaschofield]

Thank you 🤗

[@poolhallshark]

Beautiful reaction, Nina. I always get choked up a teary eyed when I hear this, for the same reasons as you. It's definitely a beautiful thing to see what music can do to you. And that many people react the same way. It tells me that we're maybe not as shut off as we appear most of the time. Subjectively speaking ofc. But that's how I feel. I just saw Aurora in concert for the 2nd time, and she is absolutely amazing. Angelina, Aurora and Eivør. The only 3 artists that I really need 🙂 Much love from Norway ♥♥♥♥♥

[@poolhallshark]

I'm not here to promote other channels, but I just very recently watched another reaction to this performance, and the parallels are striking. Retro To Metro Music Reactions.

[@ninaschofield]

I bet they were some incredible concerts - thank you for watching and commenting 🙏🏻🥰

[@chakarasama]

i really love this reaction! you seemed to really enjoy it too

[@ninaschofield]

I enjoyed it very much, I’m so glad you did too! Thanks for watching 🥰

[@lillia5333]

I cried too. It's a stunning piece. Thanks Nina❤

[@ninaschofield]

Thank you for watching with me 🥰

[@liamstrain]

That note at the end gets me every time I hear it.

[@ninaschofield]

It’s very striking 🥺

[@hakanandersson1276]

Dear Nina! Ohh what i have waiting for this! and i was rather sure that you should love it. I have heard it so many times and i will never get tired of it. So important, so beautiful, so thoughtful and scary at the same time. I have hard to thought that anybody could to thisbetter. It is a work that only those two can make it like this. The have both the love for planet earth. Love could be very selfcentre but they are both empath and love mother earth in a kind of selfless love and i love it. Hope this make sense. Every tone they sing is important to me. Sorry about my emotional jabber. About the snow it is a snowstorm outside right know here in my part of Sweden

[@ninaschofield]

You can feel the empathy they both have in every note can’t you 🥰 ahh a snow storm! Sweden is so beautiful, I can imagine it’s very cold there too!

[@hakanandersson1276]

@@ninaschofield I am not a snowlover 😁 Yes the empatic feeling is strong in this song.

Aurora is just banging out one after the other. As it has to be expected, though.

[@bryanleggo3489]

Please consider reacting to any of the Jacob Collier Mahogany Sessions songs, especially Little blue as well as Wild Mountain Thyme with Laughey and Dodie with the NSO at the Kennedy Center. It's on PBS.

[@yukito2457]

Love your reaction, please react to the seed of Aurora

Okay Piano Lover!! Now go watch and listen to Jacob's live concert piano videos. Go to his channel.

Please react to Kelly clarkson’s cover of All by myself by Celine Dion

[@karenhollingsworth4618]

Hi Nina Can you please do a reaction to the duet between Johnny Manuel and Guy Sebastian “ Black and Gold”. I really enjoy your reviews. thanks

[@linnightl9277]

But the cold - impact on breathing and fingers - how?

[@ninaschofield]

It’s very hard, cold temperatures do have a big impact on the voice - they did an amazing job navigating through that 🥶

[@Toxicdemon2]

Would have been even better is Jacob had just stayed quiet

[@CulturalVibes-q8c]

he is talented as a pianist but I don't like his tone

[@itsoundsgoodfr]

Thanks a lot for your positive feedback about the sound we could achieve over there. 🎤🧊🔥
