#Willow #SymptomOfLife #MusicShed #reaction #musicTeacher - Hudba
Me on drums, Chris Greatti (producer) on bass, Brad Oberhofer on keys!
This is just astounding music. I was blown away from the first time I heard it a few days ago.
I absolutely love this! This song made me want to start listening more to your and Greatti’s work.
How long have you known each others ?
dope stuff man, love your playing :)
@@johanponin8680Chris and I have known eachother for about 15 years now!
“Willow is a badass.” Yes. This kid has been working her ass off for years, she is deeply curious and freaking talented as hell. This song has been haunting me ever since it came out. Thank you so much for this reaction!!
Willow is one of the few Nepo babies that truly deserves their spot
Me to I can't believe it hasn't gained more traction and more people arnt reacting especially on CZcams
Agreed. Brilliant.
It's a bot reaction ! 🤖
I work my ass off too you never say that about mee
Willow Smiths music is literally the conscious voice of her generation fr. Her music speaks to your soul and makes you want to simply be a better human or at least treat others better.
This is very true there's deeper meaning in her music
🎯🎯🎯 I couldn’t have said it better!
Check out Iniko too. 333, Jericho, etc
Sadly she's quite racist :(
This sounds like something Jaden smith would say about himself lol
Willow has done a tiny desk concert, and performs Symptom of Live. The band are incredible.
Yes. Mohiny D on bass!
She might just win a grammy for this album honestly
yea she deserves it
Yeah if WAP can win one, this deserves 10.
Absolutely!!!
I agree
Boy, I hope so...
It instantly won me over, this song operating on a higher vibration, rhythmically, melodically, with it's time harmonies and time signatures. I was blown away. Favourite Pop song I've heard this year!
Mine too. She popped up in my CZcams Music when the video hit and I gotta say I didn’t think music like this could still be made anymore. I agree, Best written pop song this year🎉.
def not pop , more like jazz
Totally agree. The piano intro blew me away, harmonies are sick, musicianship is top tier. I definitely hear elements of Tori Amos, Fiona Apple and Hiatus Kaiyote
#BadAss
Oooh yes, the Tori Amos feels! Not just the murmuring rhythm and pitch, but also the depth in the lyrics 🤌 So glad the algorithm blessed me with Willow.
ah… finally some mentions Tori Amos in here…💪🏽🖖🏽🍀
Yes! Hiatus Kaiyote ❤❤❤
I don’t know how you all keep making these references but completely leave out Esperanza Spalding. This song and some others I heard are *VERY* clearly influenced by Esperanza Spalding.
A pop song in a 74 time signature is almost absurd in this era of synchronized, unoriginal hot garbage.
This song is so intoxicating. The instrumentation, the texture of her voice, the frickin harmonies, the vocal rhythms. ... all of it. I'm just high right now.
That’s what music does to us! I love it
I wish people would appreciate this type of ART like we all seem to, I tried showing her music to my partner, family, etc. And it's like no reaction 🙃 like how could you not be absolutely hypnotized by her, this song, style everything.
SAME! I get so annoyed lol
Full credits for the track:
Produced by Chris Greatti
Written by Willow Smith, Chris Greatti & Brad Oberhofer
All vocals by Willow Smith
Drums - Asher Bank
Piano - Brad Oberhofer
Bass + EBow Guitar - Chris Greatti
Really? This is so incredible that someone could get these frequencies together in this fashion I really think this is the new standard for musicians cause this broke barriers.
She’s a force.
Willow is been listening to African Jazz I swear. That's african rhythms and sounds (South Africa), absolutely beautiful
Willow just did a live version of this as part of "Tiny Desk Concert". She did it with a full live band and I think it was an even better version of the song! Truly amazing! I think you'd love it!
I'm not interested in Russell anymore we parted ways. Yes I Gabe him the west Hollywood house but not the Sherman oaks house
@@juanscott7130 What?
The lineup on this track need to form a permanent band and release more stuff like this. The dynamic is incredible.
Give Willow that Album of the Year award, RIGHT NOW!!! 👍🏼
I'm constantly in my car yelling "let's go Willow!" Clapping and bopping all over the place listening to her music. She's great, I love this young woman and I've been following her for years. She just keeps getting better and better.
It's so true. She's really grown into an incredible artist; it's been really exciting to watch her. Plus, all her influences and the people around her just show how creative, curious, and thoughtful she is. She never settled on doing the bare minimum; she makes a true effort to authentically create music that feeds her soul and it shows. It's very refreshing.
This track reminded me a bit of Esperanza Spalding!
Yesss I have a feeling Willow's been on a Spalding kick lately
@@KalebPeters99she has haha shes been harmonising to her songs on instagram lately
she posted some covers of Spalding on her page a while back before releasing this, so you wouldn’t be far off
I immediately thought of her!
@@mikiamir275 have you heard the new snippet of the next unreleased single?! I
THE LIVE PERFORMANCE IS OUT! “NPR Tiny Desk!”
Yeah I felt the same after I first heard it. After listening to it multiple times now I'm pretty sure this is one of the best new songs I've heard in a few years. This is Grammy material.
It’s definitely special. The weird time signature is insane😭😭
7/4
@@MusicShed Except for the chorus.
I know for a fact that Hiatus Kaiyote was a big influnce on this song. They used to talk about doing a collab back in the day. Before her skill had developed to this level.
Now that I know it's possible I NEED that collab to happen
10000% Hiatus all day
Big Feelings from the same album sounds just like a Hiatus Kaiyote song to me haha, the inspirations are clear. Not just Nai Pam but also Simon Mavin's keys and Perrin Moss type drum breaks.
I need this collab!
This is her best song by a good bit
Willow’s music trigger emotions I didn’t think anyone from her generation would have enough depth to stimulate in this 59 year old woman. Her artistry is EXQUISITE!!!🔥🎶🔥🎶🔥
Man you had the exact same reaction I had. I was sitting in disbelief at just how good this song is.
She does remind me of Fiona Apple and Tory Amos but herself too. Her whole sound and voice is just magical and hypnotic. She's on the right path
I desperately want the Willow - Thundercat - Domi - JDBack performance of this song
Jesus I would lose my mind if they all got together.
I love Fiona Apple also! It also reminds me of Hayley Williams/Paramore! I've been loving Willow's music journey lately!
It does kind of give me Petals for armor vibes
why does air have to give off "vibes" why can't she be her own thing?
@@spongebob8157 well because she’s not her own thing. Nobody is their own thing. Everyone and I mean literally everyone has inspiration from someone else. There is not a single person on planet earth that is 100% an innovator with no inspiration
I get Paramore - Cirlces vibes…Willow is amazing
big feelings is even better.
I heard this song once at 10 pm and stayed up till 3 am learning the lyrics because it’s such a beautiful song 💜💜💜
Never listen to pop music and this tune is such a breath of fresh air. 7/4, incredible harmonies, brilliant groove - first time hearing pop and wanting to hear more since decades haha
Her vocals have matured so much she sings in her range powerfully. I loved her meditstion songs she collaborated in and Alone done live her voice is amazing. I didnt listen to her when whip your hair was out being in college and discovering jazz music and kpop and Bolly. But her rock era and these new releases she easily is making legend.
Non musician here..and you’re absolutely right. I appreciate everything about the music that you described. I have also listened to Willow since she was singing r&b(Whip my hair) and I just love how much her music has changed and how much she has grown as an artist. Very proud of her.
theres a live performance of this and the woman on bass is fire! everyone is!
I have been a fan of Willow since I whip my hair 😂 love to see her blossom. I feel like this song is her magnum opus.
She just performed this song at Tiny Desk, it’s a must watch performance, one of my favorites in a really long time.
Like with in 24 hrs of hearing this song I found this channel and shared it on every platform i have access to. This song is culturally significant!
There is a live version of the song on NPR mini concert series on YT. Willow is truly a musical alien- She is the Dali of music, truly different, wildly talented and 1000% FANTASTIC. I’m addicted to her sound, the music she creates with her band, just WOW. 🤯 ❤
Yes, the Tiny Desk Concert posted to CZcams on May 1. Not exactly sure if the musicians backing her there are the same ones on the studio recording
@@TakenTook I see. I didn’t know that, I just figured they were the females that normally play in her band (since she has an all female band).
@@michelesmusic -- The musicians with her at the tiny desk might very well be her regular band, I'm just not sure. Keyboard player was a man, the rest of the band were women:
Liso Lee: guitar, vocals
Zach Tenorio: keys
Mohini Dey: bass
Taylor "The Pocket Queen" Gordon: drums
@@michelesmusic -- Checking online for the credits for the new album, the studio musicians seem to be a different group of people than the ones she has with her at the NPR concert.
@@TakenTookRight on, thanks for the 411. No matter who she jams with, she sounds amazing and it’s always a treat to hear her live😁
She dropped a song called I Am Me when she was 12. I knew then she was special. Her debut album at 15 was very experimental and she was still finding herself. She'd been teasing a jazz/fusion album for awhile; GLAD WE GOT IT! She soars in every genre she does. She has a true appreciation for music and isn't afraid to try things.
Willow performs it live on her Tiny Desk!
I love Willow and Jaden.
I hear some Tori Amos -ish style vocals & piano sound! Very talented & evolving musicians
I never come back to a song, but this, this just tickles my brain in all the right spots, the start just sparks imagination It almost feels like I'm about to watch a happy mysterious show with 10 IMDB rating, I can't explain how different unique and awesome this song is.
I'll be 64 April 22nd 2024, and I dig it too!! The complexity and layers. Wow
Yea I have been stunned by this one for the last week...it's a masterpiece
When I first heard this song I was really captivated! The cinematography of the video really matches the vocals perfectly and I love how it snaps into the very groovy chorus.
This whole album was a breath of fresh air. I haven’t been this excited about music in a while.
Absolutely 1000% agree with everything you said! I was obsessed with this song as soon as I heard it. There is a lot of complexity in this song with the music and her vocals, it’s like art for your ears! ❤
It's funky, hip and so insanely sexy…. I am a 61-year-old female…Willow, I ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ your music. Continue to evolve music to another level….
You, and your musical team ROCK…….
Sending ❤️ and light!!!
Yesssss.. a definite Snarky Puppy vibe! She has finally found her space.... Love It!!!
This also reminds me of Kimbra as well
Got Kimbra vibes as well...at least there's a few younger artists out here willing to experiment with their sound to that kind of level
Great review. I too was blown away. It’s so welcomed and your put it perfectly. “Complex music that is accessible to us all" . This keeps music expanding and young people have been fed a standard diet that stunts their boundless creativity. I am glad for the future of music!
His reaction was the same reaction I had when I heard it the first time, it's melodically on another level, the whole arrangement and the way she sings is complex.
she is much more talented than everyone else in her family combined
Willow just did a tiny desk concert which opens with symptom of life! Great from start to finish
I'm obsessed with this project. It's so powerful and beautiful and immersive. Come through Queen!
I knew instantly this song was a game changer…I adore her and this song is an instantaneous classic. AMAZING song
Last time anything of Willow was on my radar was that flip my hair thing that was on the radio a lot. Wasn’t my cuppa tea. This tho is fire! Loving how this girl has grown🥰
The algorithm has led me to my ppl! I'm not a musician but I've always had an ear for music. Ive followed her for years but this is by far exceeded any and all expectations!
This is Joni Mitchell in 2024. WOW! WOW! Next level!!!! Your enthusiasm is totally merited and your comment on it reaching people who would normally find this kind of music difficult is also right on. I work with a young vocalist who is your normal pop consumer - with taste - who likes complexity and layers who loved this when I played it to her. This is the ultimate crossover where musical complexity still touches people. An EXTREMELY IF NOT IMPOSSIBLE FEAT THESE DAYS!!! I’m still trying to get my head around 7 going to 2, 3 and on to 4 in one song with crazy jazz chords, not only on the piano but also the bass. Ridiculous stuff:))))))))
I need her to release a whole album with this sound. She could influence the pop music landscape for the next few years.
This sound is just fantastic. Dreamy, it's complex but you can groove to it. Definitely a landmark moment for modern pop music.
It's one of the best pop songs I've ever head.
Her tiny desk concert had me mesmerized. The band was outta this world. The vibe was vibing!!!🤯😍
ive always loved the creativity and the ART that willow creates!!
She is a breath of fresh air. I haven’t been able to not skip songs on an album in a while.
I LOVE THIS SONG!!! So complex but so digestible, and not to mention the depth of the lyrics.
Her new album has absolutely blown me away.
This album is so incredible. It's giving Fiona Apple, It's giving Tori Amos, It's giving Ani DiFranco. BRAVO WILLOW
This whole album is ART!
I first heard this song about a week ago and I had very similar reactions and thoughts about it!! I am a huge Fiona Apple fan as well and Willow’s music is right up there with Fiona’s!! Excellent tune and the album is fantastic!! I’m thinking Grammy for Best Album!!!
thats one hell of a name for a song.
David Morgan - "whats up guys David Morgan here hows it going? welcome to the reaction channel series whatever the heck is going yes i dont know we are filming a bunch of these right now... ...have a musical day Willow youre awesome love your music"
Damn, I did not expect this Esparanda Spalding-esque pop vibe out of her. Intensely good
I love seeing musicians appreciate other musicians. Agree to the fullest with your reaction. The feeling of feeling the music radiates. 😊
According to Genius Bass is played by Chris Greatti and Drums by Asher Bank
You're reaction was mine exactly 💯 it's UNFXCKINGBELIEVABLE
she performed this live on NPR's tiny desk concert
the bass player is from another planet
I LOOOVE this song! It gave me Fiona Apple, Steven Wilson and Bent Knee and I am here for it. She is so incredibly talented
Yes-This song is wonderful. I was delightfully surprised. I just love this song!! She needs to write longer songs.
I’m glad I’m not the only one who fell in love with this song. It’s so well produced and kinda takes me back to the 90s with some of the pop they had back then.
Truly a great song!!
The bass is amazing on this track. I love it!! I love your reaction and commentary to this song.
The bass and drums are punk rock japanese rock sound. The piano riff sounds like jazz. Its sounds like alternative rock more lean towards rock sound. Meloancholy flat alto voice
Absolutely! She is next level. Future sounding
Gives me Jagga Jazzist / The National Bank vibes and I LOVE IT!!! Oh, and this the first track on her Tiny Desk Concert!
Willow is uniquely talented. The song is hypnotic. 🔥🔥❤
I heard this hours after it came out and listened to it about 20 times. I love willow. She's very bright and can write her own lyrics.
Very special performance, Every element was perfection. As you said a live performance would be nice to listen to but This studio version used enhancements and effects to add to the overall composition. Great reaction as usual.
I want more! This is a new sound for me and I love it! A bit of funk, a bit of alternative, a bit electronic :)
She is going to blow up!
Totally agree! I haven't had a song on repeat for over 2 decades. Everything about it is amazing. Also, the courage it took to push this into the pop music scene. They gave the people what they need and not what they want. FUCKING LOVE THIS SONG
Clicked the fastest I’ve clicked in a while!! So excited to see a true jazz take on this song. 🎉
Genuine appreciation
Really really impressive stuff from willow im astounded!
Chick Corea, Flora Purim, Stanley Clark, Return to Forever........ if you don’t know them, have a listen. Love Willow’s vocals.
I would react to her Tiny Desk Concert! Her live vocals are 🔥 and the band was mesmerizing to watch cause they all were so in it!
I love your reaction. It's so authentic and sincere.
She fucking snapped
Her songs are truly incredible! She's so young with so much talent.. Simply amazing.
I agree . Heard it last night for the first time, and I was blown away. Maybe there is hope for the world!
Willow is ecclectic what i love her own style and she dies what feels good to her she is awesome
Love Willows Music! She is so innovative and talented.
This song is Everything for me & to see that someone felt this same way and reaction! Omg I love it!!!! And I didn’t get enough either, I have it on repeat on my player.
She did her damn thing on this ❤
