This young Man is in a league of his own. He may have been indluenced byJ.Prine etc but his poetic wiadom Is beyond comparison. There are certain lines in almost allhis songs that resonate with me and I am 68 yrs old. The lyricism and satire are " Sine Qua Non."
Best song of this nature since... you know what? there's never been a song like this. You are in a league of your own, and better than the whole lot of pop starts! BRAVO!!
Every so often, humanity is blessed with an artist who transcends time, ideology, and identity and speaks to a deeper truth that resides in all humans. Jesse happens to be one of these artists. As a gift from God, he sings words that chime truth in a way that doesn't offend but instead puts humanity back together on the sane (and same) trajectory. Great voice and amazing guitar playing only help to reinforce his message.
@@shaunsmith9013 100% he is overflowing with empathy, passion, and PURPOSE with plenty to share. He hasn’t compromised his values and integrity-and that is why he shines so bright. He’s using his gifts for the right reasons and it deeply resonates with all that can feel it. Share the love. 💓✌️
How the hell do you write such smart, poetic, timely lyrics, let alone the music, on such a constant basis? Those finger skills that don't seem to need your attention at all are also amazing; I don't think I've ever seen you look at your guitar.
@@kulak8548 indeed. Communion with the eternal muse. Greatness flows through him like water from the fountain. ⛲️ 💫 Always reject trading money for art. That compromise will ensure her inspiration departs. 🙏💜
Our new folk genius! What we need is his real, clean, and honest mind! We may not always totally agree, but damn what a great, powerful, brave voice!. Kick ass Jesse, keep it up!
Thank you for this comment! A guy in the comments above talked all about a great John Prine is and how terrible this kid is in comparison…. 😢 That’s certainly not how I look at it!❤
I legit described him to my folks as 'bob Dylan if he weren't an alcoholic ' Hadn't realized it was a popular opinion, him sounding like Dylan, Must be true.
Yep! The truth lies not between any lines - it lies in these words of this young man who could have sung in Woodstock ´69! Waht a storyteller! Thank´s!
@@savannah3d 100% and let’s hope and pray it stays that way for a long long time. As soon as money enters art, the great muse departs. He’s incredible and deserves all the support we can offer him. If he receives back even a fraction of the kindness and empathy he’s so freely shared with all of us, he will never want for anything. 🙏💫
My dog is mostly focused on sniffing and licking the grass where female dogs have been peeing. I'd take that over what we're dealing with. I wish people would stop comparing Jesse to the one folk singer they know. The sound is unique enough that he deserves to be recognized on his own merits without the constant Dylan comparisons.
My daughter sent me a video of yours knowing I would love your music and I was already on it. First song I heard was Cancer. This song had me rolling laughing. Good medicine.
I look forward to a new song each day. Not once was I disappointed. Thanks for sharing your talent brother. and to all the fans who comment on your songs...Y'all have excellent taste in real music.
Just addicted to this shit, now! John Prine-ish, for sure but not a copycat. Very fun, unique, catchy, well executed, raw sound, clever lyrics….just a good catalogue of songs, man.
I am astounded how surely you will put our social situations to words that perfectly capture what we are living in! Another amazing commentary. Thank you!
Maaaaan! I freakin love your music...your voice....your style. Your lyrics are very John Prine-esque....with your own original sound. thanks for sharing you!
"we used to have different opinions, now we have different facts" Gold!
Brilliant
I just cannot get over this talent. This is the hidden national treasure we don't know about. Protect this man at all costs.
He really deserves his own spot instead of being constantly compared to Dylan or Fogerty. He's very good at being a breath of fresh air.
THIS!!
Musically, neither comparison resonates with me. He looks like Fogarty. Musically though there's a strong Prine influence.
@@Quinn37definitely agree with you on both counts. There's no doubt that he's Prine influenced and he really does look like Fogerty 🙂
Agreed
Yeah Robert Zimmerman sucks ass compared to our bit Jesse.
a songwriting machine
Age of machine
Jesse Welles doesn't exist. It's an AI construct
All ripoffs of older songs
@@NEXTLOOKING Like AC/DC then
@@NEXTLOOKINGcan’t create art in a vacuum
One nation, under Dog. AMEN!
What folk music is meant to be. Preach it young man. Because if we can't count on our artists....
The most honest songwriter out there..fluid as a river...brilliant lyrics

He's swimming against the current...but its awesome and the truth...and I'm 65 and a huge fan
I'm 70. Glad to find this guy before I die.
Glad to be here within 30 minutes of a Jesse Welles upload. Love the tunes man.
I’m 65 and it’s beautiful to hear real music again ✌️
😂 my bumper sticker says "my dog for president". Thank you so much for this!!

Haven't heard anything like this since 1965.💙
You really threw us a bone with this one Jesse!

jesse is tapped in to the source
he got an extra helping when standing in the talent line............
Genius

One Nation Under Dog, brilliant! With a dog in charge, no harm would be done to us. Go, Jesse!
I am voting for DOG 24
you spelled GOD backwards but I’m right there with you brother based chase
@@asnojleykl4319 God doesn't have a great track record. I'm voting for Dog.
Cmon, nobody wants Harris.
@@ioncewasmikey wow!! What an incredible addition to this conversation!!
@@jamaretienne6537 It would be, if you understood it.
you are great, amazing, wise lyrics, excellent music, BRAVOOO
This kid is just such a natural. We are lucky to have him.
@@Tedroy yes we are. Protect Jesse at all costs.
I’ve had your music on repeat all week, thank you for speaking to all of us with heart. My new favorite genre
@@mads7j303 💫🙏💗
Pugs are not financially responsible - can confirm! lol 🤣🐶
🤣
I agree! One nation under Dog does it for me.
Jesse Welles is my favorite living songwriter
@@DarrellElmerRodgers I’m right there with you. Been in awe for months now. Truly something special.

I am fully convinced that the same God who once sent Bob Dylan sent Jesse Welles
ABSOLUTELY!
I think of him as our (very worthy) substitute John Prine. 😊
Funny either way But please tell me you knew Bob Dylan claimed he sold his soul to the devil
you mean the same Dog ?
If he doesn't go down in history as a folk hero legend then they probably just don't exist anymore
Johnny Prine's spirit lives on. Totally fun. He's great.
I haven't been more excited for a new artist since 1972.
@@christopherscustoms3722 💫🤙
Woof, man.
Dog gamnit you said it Jesse.
The wild rabbits that frequent my yard come up closer when your music is playing on my phone.
Where the hell is my omelette??!?!?!?! Hahahha hell yea love that line and perfect delivery
John Prine is smiling
Thank you for this comment! A guy in the comments above talked all about a great John Prine is and how terrible this kid is in comparison…. 😢
That’s certainly not how I look at it!❤
“I’ve been cracked and now I’d like some quiche” amen brother. 💞
I love how he gets more comfortable as I watch more videos. Please keep it up. This is beautiful.
I love dogs, I love Jesse Welles too. ❤ ✌😎👍 🎵🎶🎶
Pay attention to this young fella, kids.
Jesse's your generation's Guthrie and Dylan.
I legit described him to my folks as 'bob Dylan if he weren't an alcoholic '
Hadn't realized it was a popular opinion, him sounding like Dylan,
Must be true.
In the words of Mark Twain("the more I get to know people, the more I like my dog")
As much as I like the message I also love to view it as an ode to mans bestfriend
Holy s-it. One hit after another. Wow.
"We used to have different opinions now we have different facts."
Yep! The truth lies not between any lines - it lies in these words of this young man who could have sung in Woodstock ´69! Waht a storyteller! Thank´s!
This guy is waaay ahead of the curve.
Been spending more time with my dogs than people lately...
... keep it up brother, we feel ya.
I love the fact that you're authentic original and no commercial

You had me sold, then you pulled out the harmonica. Now I'm hooked. Haha 😅😅

This man does not miss. WHERE THE HELL IS MY OMLETTE???
It's 1/14/25 and here's this guy, Olympic lyricist. Neil and Dylan in one with double the insight.
One nation under dog. He’ll be as loyal as he can be, with a childless cat lady for VP.
My dog just turned 15. This may be his last year. He's been as loyal as he can be. Him's the goodest boy. So are you, Jesse. High praise.
My daughter sent me a video of yours knowing I would love your music and I was already on it. First song I heard was Cancer. This song had me rolling laughing. Good medicine.
Man, you blow my mind!!! We need more artists like you these days! Hell, you need to run for president.
🎵...if we're gonna act like them, they might as well lead... 🎵
Woof Man...😂❤
Bill Paxton with the incredible songwriting skills of John Prine and Dylan! Jesse, you have an incredible mind!
Haha dang he does look like Paxton.
Don't brag on him too much, it will go to his head. Of course he's talented, but let him stay humble...
I love the line with the hillbilly elegy reference.
This will keep the man on wall street up all night wondering if they are making enough out of dog lovers.
one of those songs with one of those cheeky smiles on his face
John Prine is definitely smiling while he decays because you got the torch
One Nation Under Dog - I could get behind that!
Once again whipped up another banger with amazing lyrics! Absolutely love it 🥰
You said it. Clear and clean.
Best song ever. John Prine level writing brother. Outfknstanding.
I would also vote for a dog over these terrible politicians. As you said, at least dogs are loyal
Perfect JD Vance truth.
😂 "you guys said you weren't going to fact-check" 😂
Definitely can trust a dog more than any politician, lyrics to all Jessie's music are refreshing.
I look forward to a new song each day. Not once was I disappointed. Thanks for sharing your talent brother. and to all the fans who comment on your songs...Y'all have excellent taste in real music.
Jesse you legitimately fill me with inspiration whenever you make a new song. I see a beautiful world ahead.
*pause*
(Repeat line)
That was good 😂
Maybe the political song of the decade for me
This guy is brilliant.. Steve Goodman, Loudon Wainwright the III, and Bob Dylan rolled into one, but totally his unique self.
Gotta throw in Johne Prine too.
Just talked myself outta going to Walmart. Perfect timing.👍🎸🐝
the "but he's advanced" wink at 1:15 🥰. Tell 'em.
That is he's a Vance!!
Just started watching and I love this guy.
How the plants have grown along with the music. Fantastic !!!
Just addicted to this shit, now! John Prine-ish, for sure but not a copycat. Very fun, unique, catchy, well executed, raw sound, clever lyrics….just a good catalogue of songs, man.
I like this dude's sense of humor!😂😂😂
Congrats on the "sponsorship". My girlfriend and started laugh so hard we both started choking. Sending much love while we're still half-sane!
Oh dude! Serious commentary in the form of cheery irony.
I'm here to warm myself in the glow of your atomic sarcasm. 🎉
Awww,ffs ,I can't believe this guy...lovin this so much I can't stop watching 😊
"Pause repeat line"
Perfect! 😂😅😂
This guy is the most important in Americana!
This is my favorite. Excellent lyrics and an important message. Keep it up Jesse
I love this. A Golden Retriever ain't a great deceiver, you got that right! Sing it!
“He’s adVANCEd”
There is a dog in America who is the mayor of a town. It’s worked out well so far! 😂
I JUST CHECKED AND HE WAS ON HIS 3RD TERM
It don't get any better than this folks.
It really doesnt
22 seconds in and it’s full of depth and truths. Thank you💪✍️❤️🙏🇺🇸
Dude. You totally rock.
A breath of fresh air right here people.
Protest with style and grace, preach!
This man is no Bob Dylan. He's actually a good singer.
Right on! I'd vote for a dog for sure!
"Woof, Man " 😄❤️
Press some vinyl already, we are buying...
Is there no end to this guy’s genius?? Sure hope not…❤❤❤❤
It never ends. HE's Smart and Extremely talented. And They keep feeding Him material.
Can confirm that I would rather have a dog for president than our current options
If you can't see the stark difference between these two candidates I can't help you.
I am astounded how surely you will put our social situations to words that perfectly capture what we are living in! Another amazing commentary. Thank you!
Great creator of original songs, and don't ever let anyone say you haven't got talent. Mr. Talent go go kiddo go!
Maaaaan! I freakin love your music...your voice....your style. Your lyrics are very John Prine-esque....with your own original sound. thanks for sharing you!
