Done 💞
The pillar is not real :D
Who's here 2020 still the most underrated artist ever all his songs still give the the chills
yes yes yes
I love all his music
YES!!!
💗💗💗
Got to see him live in Denver, AMAZING
I know everyone is commenting on how well Jacob sang, but let me be the first to say, the pianists rendition of the was phenomenal. I believe it is really what made the cover truly shine
Absolutely, two amazing musicians in this session! 🙌
that is so true the pianist is superb in his own right
He honestly did so well I forgot that's not how it's supposed to be
Agreed, 100%. The musicians playing in these covers deserve just as much praise and recognition as the artists get for their performance too.
@@MahoganySessions they are both fabulous. Thank you, Jacob.
This man could stop a freight train like a marvel superhero with his voice alone
Definitely
Nice analogy man
That was a perfect way to describe his voice
😂😂😂 voice spiderman
Mr. Banks.... my friend and I were in the very front row of your concert last evening. We have been waiting for months to see you!!!! Lord.....have....mercy.... you did not disappoint. In fact, we were speechless. The words were just ineffable. We're both older women who have been to hundreds of concerts and we're going to keep entertaining ourselves until the wheels fall off.
But let me say this.... We have NEVER see a performance like what we witnessed last night. For us, it's all about the "feel". You don't just sing, you "feel" your music so intensely, that it truly gave us pause. It was astounding to witness. We walked away from the stage, shell-shocked. The show was exceptional and everything we love about music, you put it all right there for us, ticking off every box. You are in a class all by yourself. What an honour and privilege it was to be there and watch such greatness. My utmost respect. Well, well, done, Mr. Banks.
Well, well done.
(slow, methodical) 👏.... 👏.... 👏.... 👏....
His voice has a perfect mixture of soul and pain...wow
Angelique you are very correct
u can feel his pain in ur heart
@tiago shpk this
Perfect comment. Agreed 100% percent
Especially pain
2013... i wish this guy had recognition.
2016... i wish this guy had recognition.
2019...He has done it, he has done what I have always hoped he could!
Cant believe its 4 years old
Jacob Opitz wow just ran into this song
Unfortunately not really. I saw him first back in 2011, acoustic and on a stage in a local bar. Although he has a level of fame, no where near the level it should be for such a talent. This guy IMHO is up their with the best today and should be selling out stadiums but his concerts are relatively still small. Jacob Banks deserves the same level as Sam Smith and Adele.
@@isaacjacobs3785, hopefully in a little more time, he will 🙂. Chris Stapleton worked for years and years as a songwriter, singer, and musician before he reached that level of fame and success. and we know it can be done. Jacob deserves it, as you wrote.
❤❤❤
I’m here in 2022 still listening, his vocal range is crazy I love it
Tone and everything 😫 Voice is impeccable.
Am here 2023 still in Awe
2023
How on earth did it take me almost 4 years to discover this 😩😩❤️
karabo mabusela I’m glad you did❤️And I’m sorry that I couldn’t get to you😂😂the song I mean
What masters is eventually it got to me🤣🤣
Gurl!! I just discovered him too. His voice is like no other. My God!!!
Me too
Me too!
A playlist of Jacob Banks, Leon Bridges, Sam Henshaw and Allen Stone is just about all you need. Absolute Class....
Allen Stone, Leon Bridges? sounds like 👍👍👍
you hit it brother. You might want to take a look at michael kiwanuka and although a little differ alabama shates. Britney Howard just has a voice given to her by God.
I second that list + id add Shaun James! Actually I add a few more. But most definitely a GREAT START!
That was great
I love Leon he hangs out a lot where I live he's really down to earth really fun to talk too.
It might not mean much, but he made a fan out of me.
Austin Johnson-Harding We're sure it means a lot. x
You're not the only one
Mahogany Sessions
If l had a voice like this, l would literally sing everything. Even the ABCs
i'm 5 years late but i'm totally obsessed with you Mr Banks!! the taleeeent this man has🤧💯🤍
Music is eternal, there is no late ❤️
Check out "unknown to you" by him.
The original of this song does nothing to me, but Jacob just pulled my heart out, threw it on the floor, picked it up, and kissed it better!
+Isobel Ward watch Pentatonix's version as well...
+HammerBann this version is amazing...even if they do use auto tune...find me someone that can reach the depths of bass that Avi Kaplan does...
+Isobel Ward I came here to say the same thing.
+Bradley Rudy Who is Avi Kaplan?
+MimiYueey Avu Kaplan is the Bass of Pentatonix....dude has skills.
Imagine opening your mouth and this comes out. My god. What a gift. Music is so amazing❤️
Its worth living and fighting for...
Truly
For real!
Music makes the message AWESOME!!!!
@@katehutchings6039😊😂22😂😂
Anyone noticed his hand movements.. captivating especially the way he would grab for his stomach... I felt like I was looking at a conductor directing his own voice like a instrument.... He felt every lyric a true vocal artist!!
Yes yes and yes.
dajame de joder
I am hearing this for the first time in 2021. CZcams you should be ashamed of yourself!
You are not alone I am also blaming You Tube 😅
🤣🤣🤣 you late but welcome to banks world 🌎
I think the original singer and author of this song wanted the song to be sung like this.... giving the song a whole new life.
better than the original 100%

Beautiful

I'm not religious but if Heaven exists, I'd imagine this is what I'd hear. Those acoustics are 4 dimensional!
Heaven does exist😊
Yh Heaven does exist
Nah it doesn't. Heaven was a place made up to comfort our self-consciousness from the fear of death and the unknown. When you cease to exist, you have no perception of time therefore 1 billion years can pass in an instant before your energy is transferred into something else. Reincarnation for example. Not heaven because the human mind can't cope with living for eternity. That's why as you get older you become more forgetful 👍
@@vg1024 I'm not talking about spirit (which is a theory) at all, I'm talking about your physical/chemical/biological energy... Atoms. Energy can't be destroyed nor created, it's always constant and comes from somewhere else. You didn't come into this world from a god, your existence came from billions of years worth of energy to a single point in time until you die, then your atoms deteriorate either into the Earth to create energy for surrounding soil (fertiliser) or into the atmosphere as gases like ammonia.
Everything is chemical and physical when it comes to life and death, not spiritual or divine.
@@vg1024 Look mate, when you respond with "lol" then talk about "metaphysical" and "empirical" probably without knowing what they mean, also whilst believing in something you haven't seen, touched, heard or would have believed in without influence, then there's nothing to talk to you about. It's very clear you're on some kind of high horse so cut the shit and move on. I'm stating facts about life and death which has been proven time and time again that you're born through a specific process and die the same way, that there is and will always be a VERY specific amount of energy in the universe at all times. We created mathematics for a reason and it's a lot more reliable than a CULT that has done nothing but bring war and diversity among humans for eons.
I've never heard of a country starting a war over a scientific discovery or theory on life and death?
I won't insult you, but you are clearly the type of person who is clearly 100% right where everyone else is wrong, without proof or pictures and evidence of your god, faith has been dying for years and will continue to die, the moment we leave the planet and find other world's and truly make our footprint on the universe, religion with be finished. That is, if war caused by religion and beliefs don't kill us all first...
Good day to you. 👍
Oh and quick thing, nowhere have I said I don't believe in "more", that's an assumption, what I don't believe in, is a single creator of a universe that is being proven more and more to be infinite in size and spans billions of light-years in all directions and that out of all of it, we're the only living things that exist thanks to a "god".
No mic no fixing his voice,absolute liquid gold pure talent at it finest 💙
>kinda into it
>hits bridge
>Like, shared , re-subscribed and bookmarked
I was skeptical then I hit 1:10 and it blew me away. Hooked now.
Agreed!
He has a wonderful voice, first time I heard him I was hooked :-)
Shut-In Spaceman me too!! gave me chills and made my hair stand up.
This song has never been done better before or since
Can’t argue with that ⚡️
Can you imagine playing the piano while he’s singing like that and you miss a note. I would literally die of embarrassment
I heard it and it's even better this way.
man, he just took a boring pop song and put some REAL SOUL up in it! what a talent!
As a videographer, I have to applaud Mahogany for how beautifully simply they shot this video - leaving us free to focus entirely on this most *incredible* vocal. Stunning beyond any measure I could express with mere words! Thanks for bringing us this guys - when are you shooting with him again?!
8 years on and I’m still bk here watching this unbelievable talent 💕
why do you need microphones and a speaker system when you've got an amazing voice, amazing pianist, beautiful building and with guess what, amazing acoustics
Simply RAW...talent at it's...BEST👍👍👍👍👂
Whatever your message to the world may be Jacob Banks, keep singing, you'll be heard.
Amen 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Still here in October 2019 🔥🔥🔥
he has been drinking liquid gold his whole life
Who is falling in love with this creative piece like me in 2019!!??????
Me of course. Jacob is my favourite singer. Greetings From France
I cant stoo listening to this. Omg, his voice has been gifted directly from God! It moves me. I just found him. May he be blessed with a long fruitful, protected career. Greeting from Massachusetts, USA
Moi trop belle voix
Me in 2020
So this was a thousand times better than the original.
*ten-thousand
luke *10 million
Fifty thousand
bicooo1 so true
bicooo1 so agrre with you.
Anyone still addicted to this voice in 2022???
I can’t wait to show this to the next girl who breaks my heart
This is the best rendition of this song. I've never, ever liked this song from the original artist because it sounded so pathetic and whiny. This is honestly the first version I've heard that actually has emotion. It takes more than great vocals to bring a song to life.. this guy finally did it in my opinion. Wonderful!
Please first check out the cover of secondhand serenade of say something..then you will surely like it coz its better than the original one n this one too.
#mark my words,,m waiting for a true response .
Asif Khan
Not strong enough, Jacob's voice when he screams gives me chills, I need the studio version of this cover.
Asif Khan mate, no offense intended, but that version is the sappiest, cheesiest, softest and non-enjoyable version I've heard. In my opinion, nothing compares to the authentic emotion Jacob has, coupled with true talent, it's the perfect match.
+Luke H Everyone has its own taste n likes, & according to me john's say something is better as his voice is too soothing and cute..n jacob's voice is also amazing no doubt...!
you should watch the verson i first watched oh just him (ian Axel/a great big world) and his ukulele...
Chorus]
Say something, I'm giving up on you
Sorry that I couldn't get to you
Anywhere I would've followed you
So say something, I'm giving up on you
[Verse 1]
And I will stumble and fall
It's all over my head
I know nothing at all
And I, I'm feeling so small
You're the one that I love
I'm saying goodbye
[Chorus]
So say something, I'm giving up on you
I'm sorry that I couldn't get to you
Anywhere I would've followed you
Say something, I'm giving up on you
[Verse 2]
And I will swallow my pride
I'm still learning to love
But I'm saying goodbye
[Bridge]
So say
I'm so sorry I couldn't get to you
So say
I'm so sorry that I couldn't get to you...
This man is the best singer I have ever listened to in my entire life. He is infallible. Absolute perfection.
This is the best cover of this song I've ever come across.
He is a GIFT to the world.
When he said "You're the one that I love... I'm saying goodbye" I lost it and burst into tears. I felt it run right through me.
me too
I cried in the gym to this today, then went off!!! Good release 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
This is not a fake comment to get likes. I really don't care if nobody reads this.. but this masterpiece will always remind me of the day my mother passed away. I couldn't get to her in time and missed her by 6 hours. The only times I am strong enough to listen to this song, is when I deal with my pain
Death is the worst part of living. Sorry for your loss hope the song brings you a small amount of comfort
@@louischapman1209 thank you. You're right, death is the worst part of life.
I don't care either about the others, but may you have the peace in your heart also. You're holding great. Take care.
💜
Hope you're doing fine after what what you ve been through, take care ❤️
*the pain + power blew me away, simply stunning*
This man's voice is like no other!! My God!!!❤👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Veni Vidi Amavi I say the same thing to myself every single day.
Veni Vidi Amavi my God.... I’m just.... wow....🔥🔥🔥🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏❤️
YOU BETTA SING MY BROTHER!!!
This is what I'm talking about. Just raw voice
now that's a masculine voice right there....best thing I've heard so far.
I'm sorry, but I preffer this version more than the original. WHAT A VOICE!!!!
They need to throw the whole originally song away.... this is his song is his now!!! He killed it!😍😍😍😍
What I wouldn’t give to see him live in a small, intimate setting. Ugh that would be heaven! A place like he’s in in this video, to be in there and hearing it live..goosebumps!
💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
I saw him in Toronto last November and it was an incredibly magical experience.
@@Zachsmommy321 omg I saw him in Toronto as well, he was phenomenal 😍
I'm swooning over Jacob. His voice is like listening to an old soul.
When he finally takes his hand out of his pocket...... 🙌
oh my god... this has me in tears
I had to come back and listen to this... So invigorating...
sauce!

leonardo zabala Don't be such a nugget Leonardo
Hands down one of the best vocal song to listen with headphones and eyes shut. Chills all over.
Are you kidding me, how can a person have as much talent as you?
Just heard of jacob banks and he just knocked someone out of my top 5 list.
Enjoy discovering all his amazing music! 👌
Out of curiosity, who was that person in 5th place?
@@robmyster01 lil pump
@@dontreadthis51 LMAO
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Best version of song - hands down. And that includes the original.
Why? Because it transcends the music. It transcends the melody. It is as if he were communicating directly to someone standing right in front of him. It is so emotionally specific with no apologies.
Well done!
💯💯💯💯
I haven't heard this version in a year or two and it makes me fall in love everytime no matter how much time has passed. Damn that's an amazingly well thought out song from the original singers and no emotion is ever lost with Mr. Banks crushing every second of that song.
He is a FORCE
Still listening to this in 2021! Still my favorite version of this song ever 💯 always gives me chills 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
2:32 - 3:00 though. It’s okay Banks, it’s not like I need my heart anyway.
This part is heaven
Jacob banks singing "a change is gonna come" would be the best thing that ever happened to me
Since 2015, when I heard this Mahogany session, I have followed this man. His track Slow Up really hit in the seeds of my being, especially as a father. His collabs are always special. But I am never letting my missus anywhere near him. I would lose her Immediately
Yeah dude, he'd take all of our women
Such a barren song echoing in the hollows of the heart - he whimpers in screams of longing passion.🌬💕🎵
you immediately hear when someone sings a sing out of absolute passion.that when music starts touching your soul.absolutely beautiful
Sweet Moses, my brother showed this to me today and I've listened to it about 15 times now. Unbelievably powerful
This man can sing.
The natural reverb in this space is fucking incredible.
Omg, wtf did I just listen to!!! Unreal! 😍😍😍
Roxy art
I think one of the most amazing parts of this was the amount of passion he really put into his singing. You could really tell he loved what he's doing.
Bro!? Incredible. Sit back. Listen. All the noise of the world is totally worthless. This version has so much "hope" in it!
2022 baby, still a legend
Absolutely 100% the best mahogany and the best acoustic song ive ever heard. Jacob is incredible, His passion smashes through the song and hits you hard. Incredible
I love the way his voice lingers thanks to the beautiful space you're recording in.
2023 stick rocking with this 👍🏾
This guy has the best voice of this generation 👍🏼👍🏼
There are a million covers of this song, but none, notta-one, moved me like this one!!! ***** is fricking amazing!!!!!
I like this dude's style - long coat and baseball hat. Duly noted for future use.
I was thinking the same thing... That coat is dope!
any idea where it's from? :)
@@FilipBlank no idea I'm trying to figure that out myself.
@@xero201 JACOB! HEAR OUR CRY! TELL US WHERE YOU GOT YOUR COAT!! ;)
Fuck it man just be ya self and set ya own trend ya know?
I can't believe it's been 9 years... I still get goosebumps today when is this wonderful version coming to Spotify
He sends shivers down my spine. Amazing.
This man is an angel from the heavens.
holy mother of vocals...
😭😭😭😂😂😂😂. Right!😂😂😂😂😂.
Best version I can find. Better than the original and the pace and acoustics are phenomenal
2023 and i only find this now 😲😲 such a powerful passionate tone with everything he sings 🤞❤❤💯
Me too....can't sleep now❤❤❤
"you're the one that's saying goodbye"... This song hurts on many levels :(
The emotions. God the emotions. I can feel them.
This man should be crowned a musical God. This is a testament to how real the man above is. Only he could gift a human being with a voice so Powerful!
was going to say the same thing. so far and above the original... such power and tenderness....
Holy shit that voice when he pitches up, such a powerful roar like a lion.
You sir are talent.
The greatest cover of this song.. Hands down
You can feel his voice penetrate your heart!
Good Lord! This is amazing. How is Jacob Banks' version not the only one we know. Unbelievable talent. just wow. Thank you for this.
Definition of beautiful! The whole moment is magical : the pianist, the place, the echo, the ambiance, and this VOICE, those emotions... REAL! thanks for that true moment!
Sometimes, just sometimes, a person takes something original and turns it into something that's his and ever rarer is if he/she does it BETTER than the original... Well done Jacob, this is beautiful!
It’s worth to be born in this time to witness this man alive.
Beautiful voice, and pianist. Mind-blowing!!!!! Jacob's voice is mesmerising, penetrates the soul !!
OMG this brother what a talent
this is the first time in my life I've actually cried for the beauty of a voice. Thank you for sharing this
what a voice ?????? OMG
I love this song...I Created a utube playlist in my tube account.. 'Say Something' sung by every musician I find on utube...so far 25 my play list will keep growing... My eldest brother lost his beautiful voice, his beautiful life. After 8weeks of chemo & radiation he passed away, July 7 2016. My teenage daughter had just learned to play this on the piano, & in the chapel at the hospital she played this beautiful song, people like us who were also waiting, came & sat in the chapel & listened, even the Minister. This has got to be one of the saddest songs. My brother fought to recover, but sadly moments of thought & speech floated in dark silence, tangled in the hazy webs of chemo & radiation as he struggled to say something but gave up...thank you for this song, it will remain forever a memorial on my heart.
