Jacob Collier (born 2 August 1994) is a British singer, arranger, composer,… Read Full Bio ↴Jacob Collier (born 2 August 1994) is a British singer, arranger, composer, producer, and multi-instrumentalist based in London, England. In 2012, his homemade split-screen video covers of popular songs, such as Stevie Wonder's "Don't You Worry 'bout a Thing", began to go viral on YouTube. Since then, he has attracted a worldwide following, accumulating tens of millions of views across multiple social media platforms.

Collier's style fuses elements of jazz, a cappella, groove, folk, funk, pop, electronic music, classical music, gospel, soul and improvisation, and often features extreme use of reharmonisation. In 2014, Collier signed to Quincy Jones' management company and began working on his one-man, audio-visual live performance vehicle, designed and built at MIT in Boston.

On 1 July 2016, Collier released his debut album, In My Room, which was entirely self-recorded, arranged, performed and produced in his home in London. In February 2017, Collier was awarded two Grammys for his arrangements of "Flintstones" and "You And I", both from the album.

Running Outta Love
Jacob Collier Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Wanna learn how to love ya
Keeping me in the dark, it just ain't fair
I wanna know about it
If you wanna talk about it, I'll be waiting for you to take me there
So won't you tell me what you wanna do
'Cause baby, it don't matter to me even if you say that you're

Alone, oh (yeah, yeah)
Even if you wanna let it
Go, don't (no, oh)
Keep it to yourself, I wanna make you feel alright (make you feel alright)
If you've been running out, running out, running out of love (love, love)
Running out of love

Oh, yeah, yeah
Love, love, love, love, love
Ooh
Love, love, love, love, love

Every morning, I wake up and you're not there (ooh, ooh)
But you know I'm always thinking 'bout you, yeah
'Cause I like to think you know the way I feel about you deep inside
But here we are and I just want to make things right
I don't know how to do it
When I was going through it
Making you feel like we be going nowhere
I'm always thinking 'bout the time we be spending together
Right now I can say I need you more than ever
So tell me all about it (tell me all about it)
I need to know about it (I wanna know about it)
I need to if we're gonna go somewhere
Say I want you, tell me what you're going through
'Cause baby, it don't matter to me, even if you say that you're

Alone, oh (even if you say that you are out)
Even if you wanna let it (even if you wanna let it)
Go (go), don't (don't let it go)
Keep it to yourself, I wanna (I wanna make you feel), make you feel alright (make you feel alright)
If you've been running out, running out, running out of love (love, love)
Running out of love

I'm sorry I don't always be around you
I'm sorry if you think I don't care
'Cause I don't wanna leave you feeling lonely
(I've been running out, running out, running out of love)
I'm sorry I don't always be around you
I'm sorry if you think I don't care
'Cause you will always be my one and only
(I've been running out, running out, running out of love)
I'm sorry I don't always be around you (running out)
I'm sorry if you think I don't care
'Cause I don't wanna leave you feeling lonely

I'm sorry I don't always be around you (running out, running out, running out)

@@woomy8971 If you're talking about about the part at 3:30, I think that's more just like three measures of 4/4 and then one of 2/4. He just picks up the vocals on the last beast of the second 4/4 so it feels a bit wonky, but the groove still feels like 4/4 until the 4th measure. Or maybe it could be seen as 2 of 4/4 and one of 6/4?

Its interesting he is tied up with Quincy since he's the closest thing to doing to modern music what Michael did. Still doesn't quite compare to Mike, but his instrumentation and feel for a groove is very much like him. Really moving us foreword with class.

at 1:26 splitting each beat into seven parts has such a surreal effect, as if the music has slowed and sped at the same time. my sense of rhythm feels something strange but still vibes with it.

@mac_sour

3y↑7

Definitely a polyrhythm, are you sure it's 7? it sounds like 8 : 11 or 8 : 13 polyrhythm to me (constant 4/4 slow beat with the chaching 11 (or 13) in the background). Either way I think this deserves a logic breakdown from Jacob, this shit's crazy.

(edit: it made timestamps with the ratios, not meant to be timestamps lol)

@christiankale7817

3y↑12

@@mac_sour so the way i counted it is 7 sets of 8th note triplets in a row but he's only playing the 1st and 3rd beats of each triplet ("1-3, 2-3, 3-3, 4-3, 5-3, 6-3, 7-3, 8) so the figure is technically 7 triplets with a final beat landing on the beginning of the 8th. but in terms of polyrhythm i'd say every two bars of 4/4 (if you're counting a bar of 4 in relation to his kick and snare being on 1 and 3) he's pairing that with 27/8 (or 9 sets of triplets) but again he only plays the first seven sets.

@@Aerydna Go you! Some people find music that it is extremely laid back from the beat uncomfortable and off putting. Totally understandable viewpoint, but I feel Jacob's heavy groove is a heavy emphasis on the musical elements he's experimenting with and trying out (one of the focal points of this whole DJESSE project for him). I feel like I'm getting hit on by the song, just because of the feel of it, and i think that's the point of that really laid back groove.

I like how Jacob has, for lack of a better term, "dumbed down" his music a little. In My Room and Djesse Vol. 1 were phenomenal, complex albums, and you could tell it was complex. But the singles off of Djesse Vol. 3 so far have all been just as, if not more complex, yet in a much more subtle manner. Idk I just love it. Keep up the incredible work, J.C.

@alEE4l

He definitely came down 2 levels so us mere mortals could better grasp it. "All I Need" slaps harder than any neo soul song I've heard in a long time so I'm here for this "simplified" sound!

@timgallagher4288

agreed. and I hope he continues to do so. lol

@Gunnar120

4y↑67

I think streamlined or refined might be a better term that dumbed down, but absolutely agree.

@peterg5383

4y↑8

i feel exactly the opposite. his early stuff through "in my room" was deeply jazz-infused and the djesse stuff has lost most of that. when he announced that "djesse" would be filled with collaboration, i got excited, imagining him working with herbie hancock, chick corea, pat metheny, and folks like that; instead, we got a bunch of pop and rap "artists." it's disappointing to think that he's following the path of mass appeal when he's capable of so much more. i hope that, after he gets "djesse" out of his system, he sets off in a different direction.

Definitely sounds like it and it could be that, but It might actually just be the bass with zero treble coming in and then a low-cut filter in logic with a bunch of reverb and saturation. Although, I don’t doubt that he could pull that off with harmonics 😂

Madhav Raghu tbh Jason is very good, but a lot of his transcriptions have quite a few inaccuracies in them that I’ve noticed from using them for reference. Also I feel like he makes transcriptions too complicated - a vocal run is just a vocal run, not a nested quintuplet or whatever. I prefer June Lee tbh
