The fans were so excited and couldn’t help but to cheer “JACOB!” continuously until Jacob Collier finally entered the stage, he then asked the fans “Kumusta, Manila?!” and hyped up the fans even more by leading them to an audience choir and followed it by playing his first song “With the love in my heart” which was his debut single from DJESSE vol. 1. The beat of the song matched the energy of the fans and so the night continued to be magical. Collier then thanked the fans, introduced himself to them, and told them that they were all there to make music.

After singing “Count the people” and “feel”, Jacob grabbed his acoustic guitar and played “the sun is in your eyes” and sang along with his fans following it with a cover of “can’t help falling in love” which the fans enjoyed with their partners. After playing lovely songs for couples, he performed “in too deep” with Alita Moses which tackles loneliness and parting ways but the song didn’t pull down the energy! they loved everything about it!

The crowd went even wilder when he played “Time alone with you”, “All I need” and a piano ballad of “Best Part” which he did with an audience choir again. The whole night, everyone was electrified and was having goosebumps because of how Jacob brought his audience with him. It was like an orchestra when everyone sings, it seems to be true that his fans are probably 90% musicians.

Jacob Collier played “Sleeping on my dreams” to close down the show but after the singer left the stage, the fans started screaming “ISA PA” a Tagalog word for “One more” and Jacob seem to understand the word and decided to come out to the stage again and fulfil his fans’ wish and performed a cover of “Somebody to love” as his final song.
