She did it live bridge over trouble water 9 days ago can you react to it
Hello Tara, I love to watch your reaction videos, Can you please react to Lea Salonga and Rachelle Ann Go duet for Miss Saigon - Movie in my Mind
OMG I loved this video, glad u reacted to it. Also answering your question, Tori learned those riffs on the spot, and they recorded her part under 1 hour because Tori had a show to go to.
Same!
Tori Kelly is the most underrated yet one of the best vocalists of this generation!
Jessie J is one the most underrated and BEST vocalists of the this and recent generation. Tori Kelly's voice hurts and she doesn't know when to stop singing.
it used to be Christina Grimmie before her passing. her and Tori Kelly are my faves.
@@TombCatHUH😭
@@__your_girl_abby___Yep it was the circle of stars jessie just, yebba, christina g, Tori, and Jojo
@@elilicona9236 that's why christina grimmie and tori knew of each other/artist acquaintances in this lifetime 😩
Me, listening: "OK, Jacob is a generational talent in music theory & Tori is a generational talent in vocal acrobatics... aaaaand here's Tara just casually singing along note-for-note while she straw-sips her coffee." 🤯😂🥰 Girl, you are wild! The GIFTING on all 3 of yall... 🙌🏼
Lol. Thank u beauty. You know how I love those riffs and runs 😂
He wrote the whole arrangement, including the runs. He recorded the runs on his own, doing what he calls sort of a poor impression of Tori Kelly, and he was able to play the recordings of his own voice to help her learn them. She executed them in a way that only she could,. but he deserves the credit for having imagined them and given Tori the support and encouragement to go to this place. If you're interested in more background than anybody can handle, Jacob has a long video in which he walks through the Logic Pro session of the whole song. Tori herself had never heard the riffs before this very brief session. I think they only had about an hour, at her house. You said "there must be a really cool chord there," and if you want the answers to those questions, that 2-hour walkthrough is something you'll love.
If you haven't already, listen to the actual recording "Jacob Collier Bridge Over Troubled Waters" featuring John Legend and Tori Kelly. It's bonkers!!!! And it makes sense with all the runs (Also, the beginning opens with a sample of a recording of Yebba, which is pretty cool.) But basically, Jacob came up with this entire arrangement and when it came to Tori's part, he literally envisioned and came up with all these runs specifically for Tori. He usually records his sessions. Also, if you have time, Jacob also has a Logic breakdown where he breaks down the entire song and arrangement and production. It's more than an hour, but it's interesting.
These are two geniuses. I have no doubt this is "live live".
The story I heard was that was that Tori was a late (last minute?) addition. On a podcast interview of Tori she said JC was in L.A. he called her up to see if she could do the 3rd verse. She only had a about an hour before some commitment and he was up against an album release deadline so he went there and they did it in less than an hour. It's pretty clear to me that it was already largely composed in his head. Obviously he knew the likely backing harmonies if he hadn't already recorded them. Tori called it the craziest session she'd ever done.
Exactly, he thought about adding this track a week before releasing the album, between mixing Yebba's voice, having John Legend getting the 2nd part and just one hour with Tori and obviously the hundreds of harmonies he did in this track, this is one of the greatest track ever between the level of talent and the history behind it. Just crazy
Honey, you gotta hear the finished piece: not only do you get Yebba and John Legend, in addition to Tori, taking turns on the verses, you also have the craziness of Jacob doing _all_ the backing vocals in the most insane polyphony which he recorded in literally hundreds of different tracks, one at a time, and layered together in the mix. He doesn't sing in quite the same way as most singers generally do, but rather he uses his voice as a tool for making the most original and surprising harmonies. He has perfect pitch like nobody's business, and a huge range, and can sing quarter tones and can even sing to different tunings i e. A = 432 hz, 440 hz, or 457 hz *within the same song*. He's a musical genius, the Mozart of our time. He started uploading his self-harmonizing videos, made in a room in his family home in North London when he was 13 years old, was later 'discovered' by Quincy Jones and Herbie Hancock, has worked with artists as diverse as Coldplay, SZA and Hans Zimmer, and has already won Grammys for each of his first four albums. His arrangdments of things like the Theme from the Flintsones, Lionel Ritchie's All Night Long and Moon River will make you gawp in disbelief while trembling with pleasure. His live concerts are wild, he turns the audience into an impromptu scratch choir that hatmonizes with itself. And he's a pure, gentle and joyful soul. You will live him, and also be slightly annoyed by good he is, but only a bit because he's so disarming. He's like the Dimash of music theory, but not at all dry or academic. He's heard strange and wonderful sounds, and he wants to help us to hear them too.
7:03 “there must be a really cool chord underneath there” oh honey 😂
Went to Tori’s Purple Skies concert a couple days ago. One of the greatest moments of my LIFE!😭😭😭💗💗💗
Girl you gotta react to the final product to hear it all come together it's soo good!! And would love to hear you analyze it!
Jacob did a breakdown of the arrangement. He said they had one day, just a few hours to record this, and got the recording completed.
Actually less than one hour.
They only had an hour. They did it in less than that.
@@bryanleggo3489 Yea.
It’s so satisfying to watch people who you admire react to artists you love and appreciate them as much as you do!
Tori is soooooo talented. I hope I get to see her live one day. Love this video !!!
I've been waiting for you to at least mention Jacob for YEARS now, so glad you decided to give a platform to these two geniuses. I really really hope you react to Jacob's own original song Little Blue (a live Mahogany Session), you need to see what he does with a CROWD of singers
I’d love to see this
Nice Avatar.
Also, he performs Make Me Cry in a separate Mahogany session, which I also feel is worth checking out!
PLEASE do a reaction to the full song!!! You won’t regret it!! 🤩🤩🤩
So excited that you reacted to this! Jacob is a genious!!!❤ And Tori is one of the best singers 🫶🏻
Tori said on an interview with Zach Sang that she had an hour to record with Jacob and that he set up the camera and recorded without her knowing that was happening, she doesn’t even remember all of that happening, according to her, she recorded her part in under an hour
I was blessed to hear her sing this live and let me tell yall she hits EVERY single note and is an absolute angel!!!!!
Outstanding reaction! Please do more of these. Also, do you think that you can interview Tori Kelly and have her on your podcast? I would love to see that.
I just bought tickets to see Tori Kelly and I’m so excited
I went to her concert a couples days ago. IT WAS UNREAL😭😭😭😭💗💗💗💗
SAMEEWW
That run Tori does at 12:30 is what puts her in an elite class for me. It’s like a powerful engine that can just keep giving you power the more you put the pedal down regardless of what speed you’re already going.
I came here for a reaction and ended up stank-facing and shouting “WOOO” whenever you mimicked their runs because *GIRL YOU CAN SING!!!*
Lol. Thank you 🫶🏼
I love the way you analyze videos, it amazing. You give a detailed information about every move, step, action etc. It's lovely.
To those who don’t know, Tori came out with a BANGER album a week ago👌
Yaaay i love when you react to Tori. I'd love more reactions to her especially from her current tour. ❤
For your question as to whether they knew the song before this video was recorded: Jacob had an outline of what he wanted her to sing and had some mock up runs done in LOGIC. Tori Kelly was hearing it for the first time during the recording. She was short on time because she had to get to a concert so she learned and recorded her part in about one hour. amazing.
When I listen to this version of the song. I picture the vocal riffs and runs being the waves, the troubled waters. I feel like the different vocalists parts, tells a different state of the journey, with the chords being the bridge and the tide rising and falling. I love Simon & Garfunkel's original as well as Sohyang and Jacobs version so much, because they all tell the story in a different way, while being really moving.
Yes she only had an hour. I’m going to 5 shows of her this year. I was at the April 12th concert in Ventura and she did her part for bridge over troubled water sitting down 😂. It was so good! I was in the very front!!
Wow FIVE shows is craaazy. I hope I'll get to see her one day.
Wooow she is a pro ❤ like a PRO
I'm so happy someone is reacting to this video! I was blown away by it on my own and now I'm being validated. It still makes me cry, the abilities being displayed here with relative ease.
Would love to see your reaction/breakdown of the finished product. It’s a masterpiece
I really enjoyed watching this video! Thank you so much!
I'm just sitting here watching this and my throat hurted, like how do they do it ??! 😭
been a fan of Tori since she started doing covers in KZhead. She a vocal bender!
we´ve all been waiting for this video!
Now react to the full version that has been releaased! :D
I have watched your video with a big smile on my face from start to finish
loved your reaction & excitement! and your voice is wonderful too ❤💛💚
Tara, you are one of the absolute best to do this. You've got the talent, the knowledge and the energy that is just right for this type of content. Keep making more reviews!!
Awee. Thank you. I appreciate that very much 🫶🏼
You gotta react to the live version, Tara!!!! Plsss.. she sang this on her show
you should watch the clip of her performing it live in her Purple Skies tour. She adds even more to it too
That was so Good!!! Check out Dirty Loops - Next to you. it is Sweden's absolute best musician, and the singer… HIS RUNS ARE TO DIE FOR!!!!!! I can promise you that you will blown away. I promise, I promise, I promise! So please. For your ears and souls sake. Listen to it. ❤️ ” Its Michael Jackson with Maria Carey-runs” - the charismatic voice
THIS👆🏻👆🏻👆🏻
I got to hear the final product (her portion) live for her purple skies tour and it did not disappoint!
I loved their video because I was able to mimic them and practice harmonizing with them
Tori Kelly’s entire part was recorded in approximately 1 hr. in her home studio. She had a gig already scheduled later that evening and literally had to leave right after this session concluded. The final product is so awesome from all parties: Tori, John Legend, Yebba and, of course, JC himself. If this isn’t grammy material, I honestly don’t know what is. By the way, you should see JC flex his vocal muscles in his version of “Moon River”…. see how many famous friends of JC’s you can recognize who contributed to the intro.
Pleeeeeeeeeease PLEASE react to the full version!!
If you haven't already, please listen/react to the full finished song! Besides Tori and Jacob, it features Yebba and John Legend!
amazing Tori✨🎼✨❤️✨🙏✨and the incredible Jacob Collier knew who to chose to bring this out ✨💕🍀
10:21 when you were talking about half-steps, listen to the run, it was crazy smooth, sounded perfect!
awesome reaction, would love to see your thoughts on the full song!
It would be a treat if you reacted to the final project: "Bridge Over Troubled Water".
In his logic breakdown session he said there was a big rush and all of Tori's contributions were recorded in 1 or 2 hours, including learning it in this video clip.
5:43 that "my kid says the same thing" snuck in there 😂😂😂
how did i miss this one
She now has a live version on KZhead eight days ago wow!
Great breakdown! You should really do a deep dive into the history of this track. Yebba started it by posting an impromptu version of her singing the song in someone's living room on an iphone or something. Unfortunately, whoever recorded it ended the recording before her last phrase ended. Jacob loved it and re-harmonized it, abrupt ending and all. It blew up! Just days before finishing his 4th CD of a 4 CD set, Jacob decided he needed to finish the song properly. He reached out to Yebba, but she was unable to send tracks or record on short notice. Jacob found a way to complete her phrase and finished her track. He then reached out to John Legend and Tori. Days before posting the final video, he posted the video you just reviewed, teasing all of us. When the final dropped, it floored me. I have listened to it over and over, hundreds of times, literally the most beautiful vocal arrangement and performance I have ever heard. Do yourself a favor and listen to it....on repeat.
LISTEN TO THE SONG NOW!!! I want to hear you listen to the finished product and I would love to hear your breakdown. Also your opinion on yebba, she starts the song off wonderfully.
Yep, that was absolutely mindblowing and beeautiful! Have you listened to the final product with John Legend in it? Surreal!
You should definitely react to Britain’s got talent ‘welsh from the west end’ audition, the song from the greatest showman ‘from now on’ I would highly recommend it and I know you’ll love it - love from Australia 🇦🇺
Yeah they said in a video somewhere they did this in like n hour 😮
Just watched a video of her NAILING it live
Since Jacob has done dozens of a multi-layered cappella or just acoustic solo work you have plenty to choose from if you want to react to HIS singing. Composer David Bruce says he's never seen anyone who can sing in precise microtonal increments (like 14 cent derivations) like JC can. That's how JC can shift to a G-Half-Sharp key in the middle of a song or to a new tuning base A432, A440, A532, etc.
Hope you'll react to the actual song next! :D
She has done it live a couple of times on her tour
❤❤❤
Stan walker !!!! Please react he has an amazing voice ! And he is from New Zealand
Nice nerding riffs and runs. Another amazing singer doing great runs is Jonah Nilsson from Dirty Loops. Check out , "Rock you", "Hit me", "Breakdown" or the masterpiece "Next to you" (last one with Jonah doing all the vocal parts)... Oh - and for some vocal mastery on another level look up Bobby McFerrins live album "The voice" from his 1984 vocal solo concerts. Unbelievable!
This was in the moment. Tori talked about only having an hour to record what Jacob needed in an interview. They’re both incredible. Been a fan of hers since before her first EP.
Yeah, I see a lot of people marvel at the inventive and crazy lines Jacob wrote for Tori. But what I take away from this video is how immediate Tori's understanding is of what he wants. That is always the mark of pure musicality, that innate understanding of music that has nothing to do with chops. The stuff he asks her to sing here is not just technically demanding, they are highly unusual lines, embedded in highly unusual modulations between already very sophisticated harmonies. And she is able to reproduce them immediately. I have never seen anything like it. She is his match, meeting him on this staggering level. Unbelievable.
The craziest thing, it seems pretty legit 😂
❤
“It was a little muddy that time” I think he was less concerned with the precision and more demonstrating how fast it would sound ‘cause Tori just said she was worried hers wasn’t as fast as his, so I think he just wanted to quickly demonstrate the speed that she would mimic

You’re going to get so fed up of me 😂 but please do Fingers Live for Hunger TV by Chinchilla 🙏 yours is the reaction I have been waiting for on this song and artist! Pretty, pretty please with a cherry on top 😊❤
Plz react to the original song bridge over troubled water!! With yebba and James and Tori
react to Katrina verlade Bridge over troubled waters sohyang version
😊
Tara, please react to "She's gone - Tommy Johansson". Its amazing!
What do the vocalist use as a throat spray? It’s got a long stem onto the bottle that they spray in their mouth.
Insane riffs and runs indeed 🔥 Maybe one day you could check out Swedish trio Dirty Loops, and their singer’s insane riffs and runs. Jonah Nilsson (vocals, keys) has been a friend of Jacob Collier’s for years. They recorded a collaboration, a song on Jonah’s solo album, called ‘Indeoendent Girl’. If it doesn’t make your hair stand up on end, nothing will 😱 More mainstream, with a lot of gospel and funk though, is Dirty Loops’ song “Next To You”, their earlier hit “Hit Me” with the Jonah riff of all riffs :) or their ballad “Breakdown”. Enjoy 🙏☺️👍
Tori casually asking, “Are those the notes?” like whatvshe just did wasn't something difficult. I cannot. 😭
Please React to Faouzia singing 'Desert Flower'
Hi! May you please make a reaction video of Elha Nympha's Wonderful Tonight? We would like to hear your thoughts about her version. Thanks in advance
I like your reactions, you should check out a country A cappella group called Home Free 5 male vocals the bass Tim Foust has a 5 octave range. Austin Brown is the high tenor and has incredible vocal control they all do. And Adam Rupp is an incredible beat boxer. They won the song off in 2013
Yes, very good group. I’ve done a few reactions of them.
react to the song that came out of this session pleasee!
She learned and recorded this with Jacob at her house in one hour.
Jacob came up with run he wanted and taught it to Torri
They basically only had an hour to record these vocals... So she is learning these riffs and phrases on the spot in real time... And she had a show to do after this recording session.
Tori Kelly only had like an hour or two to record and so she is actually learning it on the spot! Jacob mentions this a few times in interviews etc
You should react to Zacardi Cortez on the Terrell Show... He can sang!

hello @Tarasimonstudios. i hope this would answer your question (0:46-0:55) here, Tori told the story behind the recording of 'Bridge Over Troubled Water' with Jacob Collier. (10:53 - 14:04) kzhead.info/sun/Zs2BaddtoqqOrK8/bejne.html thank you for reacting to their video 🥰
I recommended this. You are welcome…
Hello Tara my name is Leduar and I live in the UK I would love it if you could make a reaction about Seasons by Lloyso.Your channel is amazing and I am always watching your reactions
WOW 11:01 Tori literally started practising the riff HALF WAY THROUGH! That's unheard of! Most musicians practice riffs from the beginning... Not Tori - 'I'll just start it here...'
