Jacob Collier - Hyperballad (Björk cover) | Mahogany Session
Переглядів 277,151
Місяць томуWe spent a day in September with Jacob at the Heritage & Arts Centre in East London to celebrate the upcoming release of Djesse Vol. 4. At the end of an incredible day, we had time for a single take before we wrapped - and Jacob delivered this completely improvised rendition of the Björk classic, Hyperballad.
We managed to capture three incredible moments; Little Blue (where Jacob was joined by an audience choir of fans), Summer Rain featuring Madison Cunningham and Chris Thile, and this stunning Björk cover.
Dive upon the other two from the day here:

But, like, the original song didn't make you feel it? Nor the string quartet reinterpretation?
@pedrosolermartinez6273 Місяць тому
Felt the same thing, I love Bjork and this brings a complete different appreciation of the song, Jacob’s modulation is just completely different. What I love the most about Jacob is his ability to play such a unique song so beautifully and still make it sound like his without destroying it.
@matchboxmatt Місяць тому
@@JohnDoe-ns8ho Not an absence of feeling it at all-just a new appreciation. When you live with a song you love for years and grow up with it, you sometimes carry that old lens of looking at the song with you. Hearing a new version, especially as tasteful as this one, brings out a different or new way of seeing or feeling those lyrics.
@Gee-xb7rt Місяць тому
@@JohnDoe-ns8ho I think the way they present the chaos is very different. Bjork is well aware she is recording in a pop music genre, even collaborated with Nellee Hooper, maybe the most popular dance/pop producers of the late 80s and 90s. Jacob's goes more astray, more emphasis on the lyrics singing in different directions and introduces some piano to accompany it. There is a kind of misunderstanding of the chaotic in art, is the artist just presenting the chaotic or organizing and arranging it for the audience. I could go deep into Jung, but avoid that, its kind of remarkable the similarities but also the differences to achieve the same goal.

Phenomenal songwriting. I know Björk intended something different - but I’ve always interpreted the song to be about the kind of therapy we do on our own to be healthy in relationships. Quite literally, I wake early every morning, go for a walk to pray, and self-reflect. Lots of personal challenge and development happens. Then, I’m ready for the day and to offer the best of myself to my family and friends.
@revjustin1 Місяць тому
The worst parts of me want to be jealous of Jacob and his immense wealth of talent. I would give up everything I had to have that. I just can't be jealous, though. When I hear music like this - when I feel a performance like this - yes, of course, I wish that could be me, but the jealousy washes away. I am overcome with the sheer beauty. I swim in its depths. For a moment, I am truly free. That is the true gift here. This allows me to be the best version of me and what is just so wonderful about that is that this song is just so incredibly human. It makes me so glad to be alive.

There used to be a bootleg video of him covering this song at a concert that has since disappeared. I'm grateful that we have an officially sanctioned record of his take on the song now. The other performance had an eerie use of bitonality at "will my eyes be closed or open" that I will always miss though, now that it's gone. There's something melancholy about the ephemeral nature of improvisation.

@JoshAntes99 Місяць тому
Don't you think it's at least a little disingenuous that the video's description calls this "completely improvised" then? I don't have an issue with anything you said, but that word gets thrown around with Collier's stuff so often that it's almost completely lost its meaning in relation to his work.
@sashakindel3600 Місяць тому
@@JoshAntes99 What, because this isn't the first time he had covered the song? If anything, maybe the "completely" part doesn't make sense by virtue of the fact that it's a cover in the first place, but I think calling it "improvised" falls within typical usage of that word. It's uncontroversial to describe the process of spontaneously layering new ideas on top of an established structure that happens in jazz as improvisation, and what's happening here is something like that. For what it's worth, this rendition and the other one I'm thinking of have some broad strokes in common, but probably not much overlap in the details. Different chord voicings and substitutions, different textural figurations, different ornaments to or wholesale departures from the original song's melody, etc.

@JohnDoe-ns8ho Місяць тому
It's quite literally the opposite of sonder. In fact, you kinda just made me able to articulate that thought. It is the opposite of sonder, and he simply does not understand not only what people love about these songs he covers but also the emotions conveyed in these songs. It was apparent with Danny Boy and HIde And Seek but it's just totally laid bare here. There are humans out there, who wrote the words and melodies for those words, "But come ye back when summer's in the meadow, Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow, It's I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow, Oh, Danny boy, oh Danny boy, I love you so" and, "Blood and tears They were here first Mm, what'd you say? Mm, that you only meant well Well of course you did... ... ...Ransom notes keep falling out your mouth Mid-sweet talk, newspaper word cutouts Speak no feeling, no, I don't believe you You don't care a bit, you don't care a bit" and the best one yet, "I Imagine what my body would sound like slamming against those rocks And when it lands Will my eyes be closed or open?" Actual humans with complex inner lives and unbearable emotions that could only find an outlet in song, wrote those lyrics and melodies for those lyrics and Collier simply doesn't understand any of it on any level.

Nobody implied anything about gatekeeping and what you're allowed to like and dislike, songs or beans or whatever. I was simply saying it doesn't make sense, and if Hyperballad actually is one of your favorite songs you should probably know why it doesn't make sense. And I was simply hoping somebody would help it make sense. It's like this: people like pizza. People like ice cream. People like both. But nobody has ever said "man I love pizza and this cookie dough ice cream does it so much justice" because that would sound crazy. Even though cookie dough ice cream is great. And I gotta say, I didn't expect such a hostile and dare I say, uncollieresque reaction.

Simply astonishing… it’s been a sh*t day, took my 90 year old mother and her canine friend of the last 16 years Lily to the vet this evening. Sadly it was for Lily to be put to sleep, she was deaf and blind and incontinent and we couldn’t let her suffer anymore , the vet gave her lots of treats and I held her in my arms as she gently passed… my mum is very old school and doesn’t really show her emotions, so I drove her home, walked her to her door and handed her Lily’s collar and lead and left. I am now sat in the dark in my garden listening to this for the 5th time in a row bawling my eyes out, I’m so heartbroken,..another friend is gone another loyal unquestioning companion has exited our lives… and I know my mum is lying in her bed just as heartbroken, crying where no one else can see… Goodbye Lilydog, we love you and miss you terribly

Restraint is Collier's superpower, self indulgence his kryptonite. Give him a single instrument or a handful of tracks to work with and he's gold, the minute it spills over into elaborate 50 layer harmonies something, ironically, gets lost in the mix. Less is really more with this guy imo.

I feel safe and at home when I listen to Jacob's music. So healing. And incredibly beautiful. Often makes me feel so joyful too.

It occurs to me, watching the view count, that there are strangers out there watching this at the same time as me. The implications of which speak for themselves, I think, if you know the lyrics to this song. Bjork's strange story isn't so strange at all, is it? It turns out there are a lot of people with brains and hearts just like yours, sharing many of your thoughts and feelings.

I've followed most of what Jacob has done since his early UKposts days, and was pretty blown away when I saw him live in maybe 2017? As wonderful as his videos, songs, talks and experiments are, I think this is the first performance to really move me and give me goosebumps and that I want to share with more of the world on such an emotional level. It is so much more than its technical constituent parts, and Jacob brings so much soul to this and enough simplicity that it shines through to people like me, who, as much as they love him, are sometimes put off by so many "look what I can do here"s (Jacob moments). This I think is the Jacob that will capture people's hearts as well as their attention. Here's to much more!

Gosh. I’ve listened to Björk’s original so many times. One of my favorites of hers. But this. Just wow.
