I wonder if it’s happening in a flash all at once or if he’s painstakingly plugging away at them and then cranking out the final product. Whatever he’s doing, I hope it keeps doing.
Fucking right?! So glad every gen still puts out fucking rad shit. He may be an old millennial like me too, i don’t even know anymore what the kids are doing but I’m glad they’re loud on the yard.
These lyrics are just mind-blowing. How on earth these songs arrive for us in quick succession, so clever and hooky. Auto biographical Legendary, in real time. So special. Thankyou for posting
Yeah, those places of honey moss, those fractals playin’ like they never are, scared of losing all they have, oh, those places, where light plays on the sides of leaves, and the birds, they make their own paths chasin’ the breeze. Those places, where the loves so strong it pulls us along and the world seems like it's all worthwhile. Those places, in me and you, they’re gratitude in a living milieu. Like the words of a song, I hope they pull us along and make us satisfied, remind us why we’re livin’ inside, why it's worth it. Those places …
I don't know what "it" is my man, but you certainly have it. (I suspect "it" is a gift in wordcraft and an awareness of the world around you that keeps you up and strumming... if not up at night like me. I think you are one of the greatest things to happen with songwriting, let alone good old honest fold music. Woody would be proud I think... thanks for doing you. I can't wait to keep listening.
Damn, I kind of wish Jesse gets known and appreciated by the whole wide world like he deserves, and then again this is so precious I wouldn't want anyone in the mainstream machine to get their greedy hands on it.
Man, I know that I keep commenting on your vids, but damn.. You're lyricism and theory and creativity of the guitar is just mind blowing man.. keep it up brother I love watching these songs
So I was living in a tent by the railroad tracks in a town near Charleston SC. Living off canned soup and Ramen but the little hidden away place I called home had wild onion growing all over the place. It was nice to be able to just step out of the tent and grab a handful to cut up and put in the soup.
Thanks for making such amazing songs. Your lyrics mean something, your passion is real, I'll always be proud to show your music to others, whilst being inspired to keep creating my own. Cheers.
Your a conduit this song reminds of person dear to me that passed away and it’s like he’s talking to me thru this song …..it’s very special one of my favorites of all time.
Jesse, I don't know if you know what your songs, your face & your presence do to my brain, to my spirit, to my days. Like one of Pavlov's salivating dogs, when my Jesse Welles' notice dings, a dump of serotonin happens in my brain. It doesn't even matter what your songs are about, I feel better because you remind me crap is not just my imagination, I'm part of others who know who the *ssholes are & we're going to be ok bc all have proverbial middle fingers. You pour out all of this on us & also for us, what do you need?
I feel the same way. Buy his music! Merch! Go see him play! That’s my strategy, anyway. I think his tour starts in February. I always come back to you tube though because they’re the best versions.
Mate - you are an open channel to the pool of creativity; and here I am in my poor naivete, thinking maybe there's a way for someone like me to be... blessed with a similar natural ability... maybe? 😉
Why not? Believe in yourself and give it a try! You might surprise yourself and a lot of others too. Also, you might like “the Meidas Touch” RUclips channel. 🧡 best of luck 🍀 to you!
@@Ghost-Mama Thank you ! I'm a proud member of the Meidas Mighty :) They are a beacon of light for the awake to gather under.... The world needs them more than it could ever know... Best of luck to you and yours as well !
@ that’s awesome 😎 to hear that you already knew about them and I hope you follow your dreams and make the music that’s authentic to you! And thank you 🙏🏻 for the blessings 😁🤍💛
I love it, Jesse I'm so glad i found you on Instagram, you're the best miusician I have found in a long time, and I am getting on a bit now so I've heard a lot! with love from the Uk x
I just wanna say the subtitles are amazing and I am beyond thankful for you adding them in! And two videos in one day is an insane treat so, thank you!
Man I knew you were an Arkansas kid the first time I saw you on TikTok. I've been a huge fan since the first song I heard. This song, Wild Onions, so deep and beautiful, it will take many listens to explore the depths of it. Your honesty and faithfulness to your muse is astonishing, so pure. You hold back nothing. Your every word is encouragement and invitation. Thank you brother. ❤
First song I've ever heard from you and you have an immediate new subscriber! You are clear and transparent with your intentions and those of us who crave true original raw and organic music, we deeply thank you! Shout out from northeast Nebraska 🤙💯
Liked the Allen Watts reference, I used to listen to him every Sunday night on KMET FM. I learned a lot from him, I got cassettes of him for my sons to listen to in 2003. Thanks for 2 bangers in one day, poor Stella sounds cold.
"You got your Mama's Honda and your daddy's jaundice" Damn. Just damn. What a colorful look back on a life you used to live and the people you used to love.
I’m an old man, I’ve seen, heard, and been a consumer of music for a very long time. That being said, I’ve never come across this kind of honesty, feeling, and musically presented stuff before. Don’t ever quit young man, you’re living proof that there’s hope during a dark time.
This guy just wakes up twice a week in the mood to drop instant generational classics that give society existential crises.
How does the man do it??😂
I wonder if it’s happening in a flash all at once or if he’s painstakingly plugging away at them and then cranking out the final product. Whatever he’s doing, I hope it keeps doing.
Fucking right?! So glad every gen still puts out fucking rad shit. He may be an old millennial like me too, i don’t even know anymore what the kids are doing but I’m glad they’re loud on the yard.
This man speaks consistently to my soul
At this point, I'd listen to this man sing about sandpaper
That will be his next song 🚬👽⚡🎸🇦🇺
Nothing more raw than sandpaper against my soul.
@@mylesfalconer9183 that could be the first words for the sandpaper song 🚬👽⚡🎸🇦🇺
I laughed so good! Me too!❤

These lyrics are just mind-blowing. How on earth these songs arrive for us in quick succession, so clever and hooky.
Auto biographical Legendary, in real time. So special. Thankyou for posting
Your brain must be in constant overdrive writing lyrics. Every single song a masterpiece.
'Like trying to put an ocean in a spoon'
“I was a veteran of an imaginary war. Still sore, I think part of me died in there.” That’s a line that makes me tear up every time dude.
True singing-songwriting for the 21st century! Love it ❤

you’re a poet write more!
One of the cleanest, most well-rounded folk guitarist/lyricist prodigies in the world.
YES😎👍

Exactly this! I agree with all of it. Beautifully written!
Saw lightning strike twice today. Watch out ... a storm named Jesse headed your way.
Damn, I kind of wish Jesse gets known and appreciated by the whole wide world like he deserves, and then again this is so precious I wouldn't want anyone in the mainstream machine to get their greedy hands on it.
Man, I know that I keep commenting on your vids, but damn.. You're lyricism and theory and creativity of the guitar is just mind blowing man.. keep it up brother I love watching these songs
American Folk is still alive, and I'm alive for it.
I’ve never heard you tell a lie. From start to finish, this song is pure truth.
Every time he makes a new song, i'm scared i won't like it or it's boring, but every time, it welcomes me in and hands me a hot cup of cocoa.
Listening to your art gives me hope that music isn’t dead. Thank you!
@@sarahboutwell4391 you,me and alot of others
Hey there Jesse. Thanks again. What you're doing is the coolest shit in music right now and it's going to be here forever...
This is my favorite one so far, so thankful I found this music. Keep doing what you're doing
This man is a songwriting machine.
I'm in my 70s and voted once You are a God send sweetheart thank you for Taoism and the roots of life too movin' on !
Dude, you’re a genius.
I’m glad you’re doing what you’re doing about it. I hope this wave you’re on takes you to (a very distant someday) Valhalla.
“I think part of me died in there.”
Right in the stomach man!
Sun: “Oh shoot, Jesse is out singing again. I will go keep him warm.”
It’s always special when the red in his hair shows up in the light.
This man . folk singer of our time.
I’m teary from this one in the sweetest way. Its easier to be here in this world cuz you❤love you
So many of your songs are very good, but this is one of your greats. The comparisons to early Bob Dylan are spot on.
thank you for the subtitles! It helps me understand the texts better. you make my week mr jesse!
Yes. Subtitles. Thanks 👍
So I was living in a tent by the railroad tracks in a town near Charleston SC. Living off canned soup and Ramen but the little hidden away place I called home had wild onion growing all over the place. It was nice to be able to just step out of the tent and grab a handful to cut up and put in the soup.
Adding lyrics on the bottom is so great, thank you!!
There’s no room for Fear. No room for Shame or Judgment. They only get in the way. We’re gonna be ok. I love you. Yes You. ♥️
He's Jim Morrison, John Fogerty, Bob Dylan and John Prine all wrapped into one.
Woodie Guthrie
Neil Young
Comparing is missing the point.
@@mylesfalconer9183 Explain please?
My friend said it's possible he's one of their illegitimate sons lol
I cant stop singin this one in my head. I think it's your best. But then again I tend to think every new song you release is your best
Two songs in one day! What a treat.
Thanks for making such amazing songs. Your lyrics mean something, your passion is real, I'll always be proud to show your music to others, whilst being inspired to keep creating my own. Cheers.
Your a conduit this song reminds of person dear to me that passed away and it’s like he’s talking to me thru this song …..it’s very special one of my favorites of all time.
You have such a beautiful voice, when you sing, I place a song in my head...
Thanks Jesse ,I’ll play this in my head at night when I wake up with a panic attack !
Lmao
I like imagining just walking up on him out in the clearing mid-song.

I think this nation is ready to hear Mr. Welles.
2 masterpiece level songs in one day is crazy. This guy can’t stop won’t stop!

5:05 Mother Nature joined in for some harmony ... and she sang beautifully 😍
Masterpiece level lyrics, I can see listening to this one riding down the highway. That's high praise, you're bumping out Petty.
Petty is an American staple. And an icon. But he has nothing on Jesse Welles prolific song writing gift
Thank you for making this human existence a bit brighter.
I'd like to hang out in that field and listen to his songs for as long as he wanted to sing them.
Hearing your songs opens little enjoyable windows during the day
Everything you sing is dystopian. It is the vibe of 2025
He’s wrong on Ukraine though. Sad stuff.
this is the best song i've ever heard..you never fail to amaze me. :)
I love it, Jesse I'm so glad i found you on Instagram, you're the best miusician I have found in a long time, and I am getting on a bit now so I've heard a lot! with love from the Uk x

You're late... Go back and start at the beginning. One a day. It will take you some time. He's prolific...
honesty!! what a rare thing
I just love this guy so much. A modern legend really.
Damn this kid is on to something. I'm liking music again
Love this guy, a little Bob Dylan with Leonard Cohen & Donovan in one living musical box. Keep the style & stay away from the roll & rock. ❤
“Funny thing about feelings is, they like to surf… the pain comes in waves”
oh man that speaks to me, very beautiful
What a song!
I ain’t scared of nothing! Thanks for all your share with us. All Creatures Great and Small is the best EP there ever was.
No sense being scared of anything! Great tune Jesse!
He really did rhyme honda, jaundice and honest and it WORKS so hard!
How lucky are we today! A two for one! Thank you for sharing your beautiful mind with us, Jesse! Fabulous song. ❤
I like that line !!! I was a veteran in a ...... thanks for remember us!!! Semper Fidelis to my brothers!!! Call on us !! We are still here!

I love Jesse Welles so much. These songs stir people. It's fucking amazing.
Excellent music, Brave Monolithian! Thank you for your sacrifice for the cause.
Seriously love them all… but THIS hits on a new level.
Why aren’t you on the radio. This is real music, you giving me hope for 2025
I play 'em!
Finding the wisdom to know what I cant do... that's been a lifelong challenge.
Found you randomly. Now for 2 months listen to one of your songs just to start the day. Keep up the good work.
You are one brave individual Jesse and your music shows it, much love and respect, Wendy 70 year old Nana!
Step aside, Bob Dylan. if the music industry wasn’t so screwed, this would be huge, huge huge
Oh wow! You’re a poet! Great lyrics and music! Love you guy!! ❤
You are such a bright light. Never stop singing
Man that is solid!!! Jesse you’re the voice so many of us need to hear in this moment in time.
This ranks up there among my favorites. I love the others but this one hits a little different. ✌️
Love.
Nuthin' but love, Man. ♥
Wow!!!!! Actually one of your finest songs. Amazing!
Jesse’s spoiling us today yall
I love watching you grow as an artist. You're awesome.
"You got your Mama's Honda and your daddy's jaundice" Damn. Just damn. What a colorful look back on a life you used to live and the people you used to love.

Lucky us!!!

Been a fan for a while, for whatever reason this is my favorite one so far
He’s got a lot of interesting material but this one is resonating
2 in one day?! We are so lucky!
And on the coldest days yet.
these songs are all blending together in my mind in the best way possible. some onions in my mind soup
Your writing is so creative. You try things and run with it and it’s beautiful, dude. You’re amazing!!
FAM you made me so happy with the song fent
Chef's kiss
;)
💚 I'm standing in different electrical right of way, listening. Winds blowin through here too.
Wild onions grow in the spring. See you then.
I’m telling my kids this was Jesse Welles
tell all the kids you meet
I always feel the need to clap for our young Jesse, sitting watching my screen. I like to think he can hear me.
Seeing a new song from Jesse is just about the best news I get in a day
Keep it up brother. You have a unique mind. It intrigues! Don’t ever stop writing songs! lol
Did he seriously just drop “Jesu joy of man’s desire” into this…?! Songwriter for the ages right here…
Jesse you're much "brighter than a cup of coffee in America"
