Jacob Collier Overture Comments
  1. R.... M....

    Modern Aaron Copland!!

  2. T.... G....

    OKAY WHO GAVE HIM AN ORCHESTRA, SHIT IS RIDICULOUS

  3. M.... ....

    The latter half of this song reminds me SO much of Dog Breath Variations by Frank Zappa. Like, WOW. Amazing stuff!

  4. C.... ....

    They should put this in BOTW2.

  5. J.... ....

    Oh my gooooood, i have just healized that this has suuuuch a "Turn of the screw" vipe to it and i find that so cute that i melt away
    upd. Now I can see that i'm of course not the only one to find that out but it's still really cute :э

  6. G.... W....

    This is the sound of child hood

  7. R.... W....

    I can hear Britten at the beginning but does anyone hear it sounds a little like Aaron Copland stuff @1:20ish

  8. E.... C....

    Don't understando the hype around this song

  9. M.... P....

    I really wish you upload the lyrics or captions (all songs). because sometimes I am too absorbed into the music.

  10. T.... A....

    why's the jazz community gotta be so small. This music is fabulous!

  11. T.... F....

    It sound like france, chinesse, english and all of the world becoming in one minutes for me 🤣♥️♥️

  12. A.... M....

    Oh man. I feel like I know nothing. You rock. Damned.

  13. L.... M....

    The beggining is actually a reference to "The turn of the Screw" by Benjamin Britten, from 0:50 especially. He explains in one of his masterclasses that this part had a huge impact on him as a kid.

  14. T.... S....

    does ANYONE have a transcription of this 😭!?!

  15. E.... M....

    This be sounding like rodeo by Arron Copland

  16. r.... ....

    Yes, Jacob, I'm listening

  17. L.... B....

    The new Mozart

    L.... B....

    Mozart pales in comparison

  18. F.... R....

    Ive never been so pissed off to not like something. Ive been listening to tom and jerry shit on repeat too as of late, so this shit should be my jam

  19. I.... S....

    This needs to be in a movie ASAP

  20. A.... W....

    Is this an overture for just the first album or the entire work? More specifically, we can hear pieces of the first album, but are there hints of what is to come from the next three albums in there as well?

  21. O.... S....

    Please write an opera.

  22. r.... ....

    People commenting there are "eastereggs" on an OVERTURE. It's supposed to worh that way in classical music hahaha

  23. M.... H....

    Aaron Copland would be honored and delighted! Wonderful!

  24. X.... ....

    1:30 - 1:47 man, this thing is ALIVE

  25. b.... ....

    wow!!! what an ouverture !!!! a decade of composing art in less than 3 minutes! Congrats with the love from my heart and the gratitude from my brain to all ...

  28. R.... B....

    1:59 is my favourite musical moment ever ❤️

  29. C.... C....

    June Lee , may the fourth be with you .....

  30. N.... ....

    There is so many “easter eggs” in this album.. 2:08, some drums and the ending are totally similiar with With the love in my heart.
    Probably the best album of this ending year!

    N.... ....

    This is an overture. It is ended to reference upcoming material. That is the point of an overture.

  31. t.... ....

    i'm sure now, you will compose a Disney© soundtrack

  32. e.... /....

    Just in time for Christmas :)

  33. B.... ....

    The beggining is from turn of the screw by britten

    B.... ....

    BrHarley054 As you may or may not know, Jacob used to play a role in that when he was younger.

  34. T.... L....

  39. N.... ....

    Copeland vibes, anyone?

  40. E.... J....

    Very reminiscent of the good old Tom&Jerry scores.

  41. E.... G....

    Sounds like Emerson Lake and Palmer, Pirates haha

  42. s.... ....

    Am I the only one that is hearing heavy "inspiration" from the score of Close Encounters of the Third Kind" by John Williams? :-)

    s.... ....

    haha yeh it's basically the same tune.

    s.... ....

    Thank you, Emily :-)

  43. M.... ....

    next up.. film scoring

    M.... ....

    He already has. He scored Boss Baby with Hans Zimmer

    M.... ....

    @ignacio morales NO NOT BOSS BABY COLLIER AND ZIMMER DESERVE BETTER THAN THAT ABOMINATION OF A MOVIE

    M.... ....

    @Keith D. Meyers It's ok, he only scored a few. And, there the actual listenable ones out of context of the movie.

    M.... ....

    @zayne lol that adds up

    M.... ....

    ignacio morales what the fuck are you talking about...

  44. g.... ....

    The whole album as if it was played in 3 minutes. Amazing!!

  47. A.... G....

    1:58 This specific chord remembers Friday 13th The Game (who knows, knows)

  58. E.... C....

    Soulful.

  59. A.... C....

    So it looks like I was right about With The Love In My Heart being a microcosm of the album lol @ 2:08

    A.... C....

    Wow you’re so smart

    A.... C....

    Pretty sure technically this would be a microcosm of the whole album.

    A.... C....

    @Dan Makes more sense. In the end this it's called Overture for a reason

    A.... C....

    well Jacob said it would be in the announcement

    A.... C....

    @Xolin11 I know he said it in the logic session breakdown of WTLMH, but the original announcement? I don't remember that, I remember him saying that the 4th volume would be a combination of the rest. Maybe I'm wrong

  60. A.... C....

    Christmas vibes for a bit in the middle there lol

    A.... C....

    Andy Chamberlain Music no kidding!

  61. a.... b....
