3. Pretty much listen to acoustic music nowadays, but he's great here, Grammys, and on Colbert.

4. Dang!

I wasn't watching the Grammys tonight. This is one of my favorite songs! Did he perform this at the Grammys? (I will scour the internet for it) I hope he won! This is an absolutely amazing song. I can never hear it and not feel like dancing. For a while, I was listening to it in the morning to get my day going on a good note.

6. That is the most New Orleans thing I have ever seen.

And I was born and live in New Orleans.

17. I miss New Orleans

We have gone twice and loved it. Last time we rented airbnb in the wards that are black only or mostly. Whole week we were only white people around. I wanted to see what it felt like. It was best trip. We found places away from tourist areas.

I was just asking my husband today when are we going back. He was wondering if crime was worse and I said it was bad last two times we went you can't think of that!

So how are things? Are tourists coming back?

Have you ever done rock and bowl? We took taxi to other side of town and were only tourists there. You would bowl then dance.

8. I'm so excited he won Best Video for this!!!

Fantastic! I absolutely love this song. I don't know what it is about it, but it really moves me. Both physically and spiritually.

I love the part (When I look up to the stars, and I know who we truly are), where they have several Mardi Gras Indians. Not sure how many folk will get that part, but it is amazing.

I love New Orleans, and I love Jon Batiste, and is SURE FEELS GOOD TO BE TALKING ABOUT LOVE RIGHT NOW (instead of the opposite).

This war is exhausting, and I'm not even it it. (the cost of empathy)

Thank you so much Me. for posting this.

14. It's So Joyous

[Bristlecone]

9. That guy is pure talent. Seek out videos of his piano playing sometime.

Not at all trying to be a jerk but no p in his name as an aside.

[Beastly Boy]

10. Wow. A perfect clip!

Everything came together just right: the camerawork, the choreography, the art direction, the casting... everything!

And, New Orleans as best supporting actor!

[Ilsa]

11. That performance was incredible! Beautiful, striking, great

dancing, voices, the song... I love Jon Batiste!

[IcyPeas]

12. His life story would make a great documentary or movie

I just read his Wikipedia page.

I think he has a very interesting story.

[Hoyt]

24. That is interesting. I've liked him on Colbert and his recent video.

Really paid attention when he was appearing from home on Colbert during lockdown. He was so cool. I assume it was at his home studio where he had this really cool painting behind him. I need to post a photo of that.

[JohnnyRingo]

13. He's a shooting star

A few years ago I hadn't heard of him until Colbert, now he's getting too big for Late Night.

[More_Cowbell]

20. He also won Album of the Year

He had 11 nominations, which I think was close to the record, and won 5.

21. pretty good show all around

such a variety of music. much more entertaining than the Academy Awards.

[C Moon]

22. Fantastic!!!!

[Quixote1818]

23. Is this the musician from the Late Show? I had no idea he did all this as well. nt

[Hoyt]

25. Yes. He has deservedly taken off in past few years.

[SleeplessinSoCal]

26. Glad I recorded the show

They trimmed down his performance.

[cilla4progress]

27. The Grammys were great - as was Batiste!

Just learned his new wife is very ill.

😢

[SleeplessinSoCal]

28. Hoping she recovers again.
