OUR NEXT GUEST IS A FOUR-TIME GRAMMY AWARD WINNER

AND HE'S NOMINATED FOR THREE MORE THIS YEAR, INCLUDING ALBUM

OF THE YEAR.

I AM SO HAPPY TO HAVE HIM ON THE SHOW.

PLEASE WELCOME THE OUTRAGEOUSLY TALENTED, JACOB

COLLIER IS HERE!

THERE HE IS!

[ APPLAUSE ] HOW ARE YOU, JACOB?

SO NICE TO SEE YOU.

THANKS FOR FINDING THE TIME FOR US.

WHERE ARE YOU IN THE WORLD RIGHT NOW CURRENTLY.

>> I'M TALKING TO YOU FROM NORTH LONDON IN MY FAMILY HOME IN THE

MUSIC ROOM.

SO COOL TO BE ON YOUR SHOW.

THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME.

>> James: THIS IS THE FAMILY PLIEWKS ROOM.

HOW MANY OF YOUR SONGS HAVE BEEN WRITTEN IN THIS VERY ROOM YOU'RE

SITTING IN NOW.

>> EVERY SINGLE ONE.

THIS IS WHERE IT HAPPENED FOREVER AND EVER.

>> James: DO YOU EVER WORRY AS YOUR CAREER KEEPS GROWING AND

GROWING YOU'RE GOING TO MOVE OUT INTO I IMAGINE A GLASS BOX

LOOKING OVER HOLLYWOOD AND ALL OF THE MAGIC YOU REALIZE IS IN

THAT ROOM AND YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO BUY YOUR PARENTS HOUSE

BACK FOR EIGHT TIMES THE PRICE?

>> EXACTLY.

THESE ARE THE KINDS OF THINGS THAT KEEP ME UP AT NIGHT.

( LAUGHTER ) >> James: NOW, YOU HAVE HAD

THE MOST INCREDIBLE YEAR, NOMINATED FOR THREE GRAMMYS,

YOUR BEAUTIFUL ALBUM, JESSE VOLUME THREE, HOW DID YOU FEEL?

>> COMPLETELY FLABBERGASTED.

I WAS SITTING HERE IN THIS CHAIR CHILLING WATCHING THE

NOMINATIONS COMING THROUGH, BECAUSE EVERYONE'S INTERESTED IN

HEARING WHO'S UP FOR THE BIG AWARDS.

WHEN MY NAME CAME UP ON THE SCREEN I FROZE.

I THOUGHT, THIS CAN'T BE TRUE AT ALL.

I HAD TO HAVE A GLASS OF WATER TO CALM DOWN.

I DIDN'T KNOW WHETHER TO LAUGH, CRY OR SCREAM SO I DID A

COMBINATION OF THREE.

>> James: THAT'S ROCK AND ROLL IN NORTH LONDON.

THAT'S THE SUBURBS IN NORTH RONDEN, ROB.

A TALL GLASS OF WATER, MAN.

GET OUT OF THE WAY.

YOU'RE SO CREATIVE ALL THE TIME.

THERE'S SUCH A JOY IN YOUR CREATIVITY.

YOU DID SOMETHING I'M NOT SURE I'VE EVER SEEN BEFORE.

YOU FOUND A WAY TO USE MUSIC TO WRITE OUT MESSAGES.

I THINK WE'VE GOT A CLIP JUST HERE.

LOOK AT THIS.

♪♪♪ [ APPLAUSE ]

>> James: IT'S SO GOOD.

THANK YOU.

>> James: HOW WERE YOU DOING THAT AND WHAT INSPIRED THIS

IDEA?

>> YOU KNOW, I STARTED SEEING VIDEOS ONLINE OF PEOPLE DRAWING

PICTURES WITH MIDI BECAUSE THAT'S MIDI INFORMATION.

I PLAY NOTES ON MY KEYBOARD AND THE HIGHER THE NOTES THE HIGHER

UP THE GRID AND IT DOES A LINE LIKE THIS.

I SEE IT AS PEOPLE TYPING OUT THESE NOTES THAT HAVE BEEN STOP

TIMED AND PLAYING THE WHOLE THING AND COMPOSING A PIECE LIKE

THAT.

BUT I HAVEN'T SEEN ANYBODY DO IT IN REALTIME AND I LOVE A

CHALLENGE.

I WANTED TO FIND A WAY TO LIVE PERFORM A MESSAGE OF SOME KIND.

I THINK IT TOOK 40 TAKES TO GET IT RIGHT BUT IT WAS SO WORTH THE

WHILE IN THE END.

>> James: IT'S SO LOVELY TO MEET YOU EVEN JUST OVER THIS

SCREEN.

I'M SUCH A FAN.

YOU SHOULD BE PROUD FOR THIS ALBUM AND I'M SO HAPPY IT'S

GETTING THE PRAISE IT RICHLY DESERVES.

WHEN WE COME BACK, JACOB WILL PERFORM "SLEEPING ON MY DREAMS."

COME ON BACK, EVERYBODY.
