When two extremely talented people get together nothing can go wrong. Instant musical chemistry.
Very Talented.God bless them.
Oh no, it totally can lol....I couldn't be a band leader no matter how much theory I know or how I play and Jon has a very specific touch that hugs every artist in the room and leads their step. Not putting her down but Jon is a once in a generation musician.
Her voice is Golden. His keyboard touch is Magical. What an experience to hear.
Watching Jon listen to Corinne, watching Corinne listen to Jon, and watching them both listen to the last chord together ... oh man, this is MUSIC!
You are so right. The vital difference between a good musician and a great musician is just that: the great musician listens more skilfully.
Corinne is outstanding. The way she sings is like she whispers directly in your ear (and only in yours). Simply great!
This project is a gift we did nothing to deserve, but thank you for them!
Serendipity at its best connotation - truly magical!
Well said!
Fam!! ❤️
Lady sings the blues Dianna Ross.
She has such a smooth classic sound! The type of sound that you sip tea close your eyes and escape the day to.
Echoes of BIllie Holliday here...very sweet
as beautifully expressed as this über-gifted duo ..... ;)
Not really.
Мэч
So beautifully said! As a writer I enjoy this kind of gorgeous metaphor. It's just as sublime as the music that inspired it.
Jon Batiste piano sets a timeless mood. What a sensitive touch! It sustains her voice with magic sensibility.
I have always found Corinne’s voice enchantingly beautiful, but she just gets better and better. Add Jon’s accompaniment, so vibrant while so sympathetic, and the result is transporting. I shall be listening to these performances forever.
I so agree! And I listen to this several times a week every week. Brings joy and healing to me, body and soul.
Her voice sounds like a reincarnated legend of the past. Smooth, classic, and soulful.....
Billie Holiday
Find her Live from Abbey Road performance with Herbie Hancock, Wayne Shorter, Tal Wilkenfeld, and Vinnie Colaiuta, if it's not on YT it's on Hulu I think. While she is great here, that performance will be stuck in my head forever.
yep,,,,Billie Holiday
YESSSSSSSSSSS
@@jwd223 yes
Seriously? This was unrehearsed? It's perfection. Takes me back to those halcyon days when singers like Billie Holiday and Ella Fitzgerald reigned supreme. Thank you!
Yesssss!
Janice Sims don’t forget about Dinah Washington
Well said
Dinah Washington was another classy songstress. Thanks for the reminder.
Janice Sims you forgot Lena Horne, but you are Absolutely right
We cannot forget the legendary Nancy Wilson's rendition of the beautiful classic.
MAJOR Peace Piece vibes in the intro. Holy moly what a wild way to play this standard. Batiste is a madman.
This is musical beauty. Jon and Corinne are musical soulmates. I would love a whole album of their creativity😍😍😘😊😎
Yaasss!
YES, PLEASE!👏🏽
Couldn’t agree more!!!we need more of these two together!!
A duet album, please and thank you in advance. They are among our generation's greats.
Second that. Except I am begging: please!
absolutely gorgeous ... their generation should bring back the old standards, the *great american songbook* ... it's sorely missed .... more and more and more, please ... an album, please ....
Yes, yes, yes! Please!!!
@@charlottemuller3100 I had to do a doubletake - Muller is my maiden name 🌝
Yes! Her voice is so beautiful and his piano-playing is sublime! Just perfect!
Was not expecting to get so emotional. What an amazing cover. We've missed you, Corinne.
I love his audible "mmm" when she goes into her lower register.
J Valentine yes! I am all in my feels right now ( I didn’t sign up for this 😩 -- but I’m grateful 😉)
Here: 1:34
Agreed! We have not heard enough from her. 💗🎶
Though, I feel her husband dying from an accidental overdose a number of years back could have something to do with that?
This is so beautiful.
I have no words to express how beautiful this duet is. Truly an outer body experience right here. We need more music like this to hit our radio stations. I miss this.
I love people rediscovering classic jazz. It’s beautiful, it’s difficult in a sense of demanding actual talent from its performers, and it’s as sexy as it is fun. How could you not love this.
If I ever tie the knot, I'm slow dancing to this.
Me too. So beautiful 😍❤️😍❤️
Mumra 2K Now you have me thinking of a 20 year marriage celebration/rededication song
The original is my entrance song at my wedding!
With good intentions like that I'm sure you will one day babe X
Again, What miserable person would dislike this? Who hurt you?
More of this, please and thank you.
I know right!! .....They probably hate music
Joonya Boonya they’re zombies!!
Too right - this is sumptuous. Whoever disliked this either has no ears or no soul. Or both.
Maybe they were mad that it wasn't long enough. I needed more. Aaah
Maybe someone who is uncomfortable with such sensitive, emotional music
Like a perfect autumn afternoon. Sun’s rays long through the golden leaves. These two should record together.
My daughter's favorite singer, singing my mom favorite song, weeping now tears of joy thank you for this right here.
It truly comes full circle for you! You're lucky.
That's beautiful! It's why great music always will be with us.
I shed a tear or two at this for sure. Each time
That was one of the most beautiful things I have ever heard.
Yes
Did anyone else notice that CBR started out singing in double time, and JB instantly adjusted his comping progression to fit it? Then during the brief turnaround before the second half of the opening verse, he reintroduces the original tempo, and leads her back seamlessly into the original phrasing? Well-done both of them!
Thought I would be the only one. The mark of an experienced accompanist! And a great ear.
Just noticed some Chopin at the end, too!
@@stevenbradley5153 yep...as a bassist and brandleader myself who has accompanied many great singers, you always have to be on your toes and ready to modulate or transition to accommodate on the spot, or you may have a train wreck on your hands.
Not a musician, so I didn't notice. But I sure appreciate your pointing it out 🙌🏼
You've a trained ear.
Her singing brings Billie Holiday to mind. Very nice duo. Her voice is like warm honey and the piano accompaniment is just right.
Her voice and his music are a match made in heaven!!!! Simply beautiful
We need a TV show with singers to sing on the spot with exceptional musicians. We might have a chance to make greatness popular again.
People actually love this music but they just don't get a chance to experience it enough.
Damm turn back the hand of time to an Era of such a bliss, song to enjoy at dinner with your special one
She has a timeless voice singing a timeless song
So beautiful- their chemistry, her phrasing, his vibe.
I needed this.
Can only dream of having a voice so pretty that the piano guy looks at you, nods, smiles, and feeeeeeels ya. This is Sweet, these two 💙💚💙
Corinne's voice and Jon's ivory tickling......perfection!
Corinne is one of the best artists ever to have come out of the UK.
Absolutely. And so underrated. Saw her a few weeks ago in Manchester. Amazing x
I am listening to this song and I feel like I am falling in love with my wife all over again
Awww, suga! That's so sweet!! Praying the both of you find a reason to fall in love with each all over again every single day and that your love is carried over into eternity!! GOD Bless! 😊🤗💜
That's Beautiful💕💕💕
Paulk....YOU DA MAN...
✊✊✊
I love that Brother, I'm praying for a thoughtful Beautiful Wife so I can say and mean that
That is so beautiful ❤️😍
Jon
You are amazing..... So glad you found your footing in the world.... You are definely walking in your calling.....
I like the look on the pianist's face at the end. It's like the music they both put on hit him so hard, he is in sweet pain.
Simply an amazing duet. Unrehearsed? Wow. Plenty of well deserved love here for Corrinne, but how about giving it up for Jon Batiste? That was also a master pianist at work. The smooth progression of chord voicings created such a lush pillow of musical love for Corrinne to ride with her vocals. Mmm ..
I'm embarrassed to say how many times I've played this, over and over and over again.
Don't be embarrassed!
Wow, haven't heard CBR's name in so long. This was so good.
I think her husband committed suicide not long after her debut album took off. Poor Corrine 😢
Same. I remember put your records on from when I used to play rock band. This was incredible though!
I was literally thinking about her the other day and this pops up in my suggestions! I am so excited to see her again
I know right! It's been a minute! Has it been 10 years? Maybe almost. I bought her first album. I've always loved her music and voice.
@@StewNWT He did, but you should check out the album that she wrote during and after his death, 'The Sea'. It's lovely. On a brighter note, she has since remarried.
Now that's what I call a dynamic duo!!!!
NOW THIS is real music. I absolutely love this. .......
Billy Holiday is coming through. Thanks for sharing this gift. Both of them are so talented. They should do a project together. I’d buy it. Classic.
agreen0401
Totally true 🤗
Billy Holiday - exactly!
That's the first thing that came to my mind, too. I could definitely hear Billy in there.
I hear it too 🥰
Ms. Holliday minus the cigarette perfectly gravelly voice....#gifted.
Corinne Bailey Rae you give me chills when you sing. SIMPLY BEAUTIFUL!!!!!
Both of them are unbelievable !
Corinne is always the best. But damn that piano sounds just unbelievable.
Would not mind a UNREHEARSED album in the near future 🙏🏾
This has that 65th wedding anniversary type vibe. Like watching your grandparents slow dance together...
With that piano resonating into the distance, that look of his at the end....all the sadness. all the knowing. all the longing. all the joy. We don't deserve him.
Jon Batiste is killing that Steinway!! And, Corinne Bailey Rae sounds as good as I knew she would!! Magical!!🎶🎵🎼💕💯
Sure, she's got an awesome voice, but let's not overlook Jon's talent on the piano.
We're not overlooking him but this wasn't a very difficult piano performance
Kougeru actually, most didn’t notice it, but she started out singing it way too fast (double time), which Jon recognized and fit his chords to accommodate it, then masterfully led her back to the original phrasing during the turnaround.
The fact no one notices is thanks to the piano first, then the singer for coming back without losing her spell
@@Kougeru It was velvet butter.
@@leoray1234 I think she tried to shorten it for tv. He did a great job
superduperjoi haha maybe!
Corrine is such a Underrated Singer,
No Autotune, just unadulterated, Talent
Thanks for your Beautiful Voice
Yes, indeed.
Watching 2 living legends perform.
Chills... I hear a little Ella. Beautiful Ms. Corrinne Bailey. ♡
Such a gift seeing Corinne Bailey Rae in 2019!! She has only gotten better!!
Vicki Thebus
Likewise ❤

Corinne’s voice is absolutely stunning and magical.
Just make a whole album please. That was flawless♡
Got teary listening to this, it feels like I'm being taken back decades. Simply beautiful!
I love her. I hope to hear more from her. Jon's accompaniment was simply beautiful!
His facial expressions, stank face and reactions are sublime!
Please continue to showcase Jon Batiste’s talent in these videos. That would be cool for him to do a segment like this with musical guests.
I see Corinne Bailey Rae I click!
Wow haven heard her in a million years and so glad she is back.🤩🥰
A beautiful symbiotic relationship between voices, keys, and minds. Absolutely wonderful!
Yes ,YES, YES WHY DO WE NOT HERE MORE OF THIS IN MAINSTREAM RADIO!!!! Our poor ears suffer WITHOUT VOICES SO SWEET AS HERS!!!!!
Wow! I could listen to this forever! So beautifully done!!!
you are a loud bansfdhfh
I think half of what makes this so beautiful to watch is their communication. That little moment when she kind of moans the note just a tad at the end and he kind of looks over at her with a quick mmm in return... And the way they pause in that silence right after the last note is hit, taking in the power and pure beauty of what they've created... It's all just wow.
You hit the nail on the head Taylor !! I noticed the same thing. Jon makes one feel like this is being performed in a small smokey bar, with just a few in the house. Corrine is a true throw back... class and grace.
One musician to another... something new and inspiring in the moment. Divine.
Right There !!! This moment solidifies this song... the chemistry... the artistic improv... Just Intoxicatingly Beautiful !!!
Her voice is perfect for this song. angelic. wow
So your just gonna give us Corrine Bailey/Billy Holliday like that? You guys did a beautiful job.
The music....intoxicating, her vocals are velvety smooth!!Their chemistry is mezmerizing...like a scene from a romantic movie/musical..... nostalgic🙄🙄
Simply beautiful.....✨✨
Her voice is simply classic and utterly beautiful. ❤️
Just wow. And the chemistry between them. This was exquisite.
This girl has a bit of Lady Day in her. Just beautiful 🌷
Amazing 👏 He put Miles Davis and Bill Evans Flamenco sketches in....🥰🥰🥰🥰 She sounds beautiful
The way he floats on that final note. Perfection.
How moving , how beautiful . Also you know she got the curl game down
Keep coming back over and over again to listen to this. Stunning
Wow that was a nice way to start my morning.
Also, this is a nice way to end my evening and doze off :)
I agree with you both. I may have to listen to this again before bed. 😁
Yessss
Corinne's voice is dazzling. I'm always listening to this lady's songs, she is undoubtely brilliant. And since she's not releasing an album right now, videos like these make me even emotional, because she's just great and her voice is somewhat a treasure. Great singer performing a lovely song. Just awesome.
You know.............I forgot about today’s headlines and soggy weather by sounds of this AMAZING piece with Corinne & Jon💃🏿🙏🏾❤️
It was soooooo soothing and allowed me to just be at a peaceful moment with the universal language of BEAUTIFUL MUSIC! Well Done...please continue to BLESS EVERYONE with these sounds😉❤️
This performance is exactly what all of me needed to listen to. Beautiful. Corinne is a joy to listen to. And, Jon's wonderful playing paints out the perfect landscape for Corinne's voice to travel on. 💞
Lovely comment!
the deeliciousplum your words captured this video beautifully.
Hear! Hear! I'll raise a glass to that! ✌🏾😎🍷
the deeliciousplum Amen.
Beautifully expressed
I thought no one could sing it better than Nat King Cole, but this is beautiful! It’s one of my favorite songs!
You must listen to Etta James version. You'll love it.
And Natalie Cole as well.
@@yogagirl949 yes! I love their composition of the song! The lyrics are simply beautiful!
My favorite version is sung by Miss Billie Holiday
I love Natalie Cole's! And now Corinne's
OMGoodness, how wonderfully divine it was ! The two of you and the song, were sweet and divine… 🙏
What is so lovely about her singing is how you can hear her smile. And the piano has not, apparently, been drinking.
My eyes are closed.. Vibe
Nancy Wilson song this also.
Corrine never disappoints🌹😘
I can't get enough of these PRICELESS TALENTS!!!!!!!
I’m so glad the show has finally started to utilize Jon’s talent for good. So beautful; we need more!
Have always been a fan of Corinne Bailey Rae since way back!!
That pianist playing is 💯🔥🔥
Thank you Corinne & Jon...beautiful ballad
I am stunned. The Very Thought of You is a classic, sung by so many. But this version almost hits the best ever. John Coltrane & Johnny Hartman version will never be touched - ever. But this is so amazing, I had to listen to it over & over again. Jon Baptiste is such an amazing talent - flexible with any singer, matching them perfectly. And Corinne Bailey should do the classic song book. Her voice brings back Ella, Billie, Sarah, Blossom, Diana - so sweet and smooth.
yes I couldn't agree more... if you listen @ 1:36 .... she has that MAGIC
Amazing. Dreamy. Beautiful. 💕
Oh my my my!!! One of my favorite songs. How am I JUST NOW HEARING THIS VERSION???!!!!???? I LOVE Corrine, and Jon...damn can he play!! I could listen to this every day, every hour, every minute. God Bless this!!!
After a crazy work week at the hospital…this was the peace I needed. Safe and peaceful 2022 to all ❤️🙏🏽
Please bless us with an album of standards and original material from these two. The world needs it
Her voice is perfection. This made me smile and tear up at the same time. She seems to be channeling Billie with every phrase.
Wow, these two need to make a record
Good Lord! Astonishing piano and vocals. Perfect artistry, a gift from somewhere else.
Absolutely love Corinne, this collaboration is gold. Just Beautiful.
I love her! What a superb duet 💗
They both have such respect for the music and such reverence for the composer's intent. Together, they make the feeling so very clear -- right to the heart.
Melted butter Carmel. This song oozes with delicious soothing notes that sing through the air. It’s a delight to my spirit. Jon Batise the piano intro!! Seriously it gets me every time. Your music is Love love love together it’s magic
PLEASE RELEASE AN ALBUM OF THESE LOVELY UNREHEARSED RECORDINGS
At least in digital 🙏🏿
YES
YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES
The piano playing and her voice is magnificent
Love Corrine Bailey Rae! Wish she’d do more! Such a beautiful voice!
I'm drooling, this is so sweet on the tongue. John is fabulous how he appreciates her talent. Wonderful pairing. Thank you!
