Im back and now I remember what it is, 2 of his clones where singing the same voice in All i need, and I dont know... it was different to what he usually does, and the microphone sometimes recorded some stuff a little bit off (especially the hang drum, which sounded soooo far and some of its magic was lost). Im talking in contrast to all his other songs where he uses every oportunity to add an harmony and recording every sound as perfect as possible, so it was weird hearing him doing that. I think he should have added a 5th clone just singing. Anyway, of course I like it anyway, but its not on my playlist (while normal All I need its on the start always hehe)

"All I Need" in Jimmy Fallon and ¿Kennel? was perfect, its about the musical choices in the last tiny desk (the first had some little issues also, but that may come because he was playing with more people). Im not someone to talk about musical choices, Im not even a noob, but I can compare different things using my taste as reference. My only comment is: why using 2 clones singing the same notes (sort of), and why the microhpones sounded so bad. In all his other live performances its weird to see him choosing doing that.

I would love to see your reaction to T-Pain’s tiny desk concert since you loved the “badass bitch” line. Also very happy that you launched a piano course. This makes an instrument I’ve always wanted to learn to play so much more accessible. Once I get a beginners piano, I’ll definitely be purchasing the course.

His new album JUSTICE is probably his best work yet..its absolute PERFECTION!! Hes actually self taught on the piano so I think he does amazing..and PEACHES acoustic is absolutely beautiful!! His talent is undeniable and I'm glad he's getting the recognition he deserves..especially with the success of PEACHES and JUSTICE!! 🍑

You articulated this perfectly. The band setting things up is such a good way of saying. Almost like music directors are the new front men (or women). I feel like between all the keyboard sounds and UAD live auto tune they could cover most areas live. It’s cool they came up with this vibe!!

From what a lot of well-seasoned musicians say, he’s on a short list of the best composers of vocal melody in the game. Shows with the little beginner level piano solo that’s phrased really nicely and leads the chords on
