I'm really feeling this folk thing you're doing. America's young needs a Woody/Arlo. A voice to rise out of the insanity. Brother, you give this jaded GenXr hope. Thank you.
Jesse, you are doin' a GREAT JOB of honoring the original Americana guys who I knew in my youth...1970-1983 or so. KEEP IT UP. I'm 74 years now, and saw Prine in 74 first time...keep doin' the great poet/storyteller/songwriters....it blesses men's souls.
Did not know this was a cover. But I guess there’s a whole history of folk music, country music, and protest songs that I should know. John Prine gets mentioned often in comments about Jesse’s music..
@@jessovendenEven Prine’s version was a cover 😊. You’ll love Blaze Foley if you’re watching a lot of Jesse’s videos (Oval Room, Election Day, Fat Boy, and the original Clay Pigeons).
Love this guy his lyrics hit home for me big time with most of his songs especially the ones he wrote up ya go mate you have a fan from down under 🇦🇺 .
Amen brother listening to blaze was a blast I mean how do you sum up the talent that man had in words I don’t know there are no words to express his greatness.
@@david267716 he just had pure natural talent and a way of seeing things that was greatly different from everyone else’s. He also had a great talent for putting it into words
Just lucked into you a few minutes ago and started saving some of your songs in the music playlist I have marked John Prine. Damn shame he's gone, sure glad you're here.Thanks,Frank
Reminds me a lot of John Prine's cover of this song. In fact, I hear a lot of Johnny Prine in your music. We need that kind of music today more than we have in a long time. Thank you for filling in even a tiny piece of the void he left behind. ♡♡♡
I’ve been into your music a lot in the past year, folk has always been my favourite and I feel like you’re bringing the classic back. clay pigeons is one of my favourite songs ever thank you
I was just talking with a friend the other day who was saying how you were heading in the direction of a young John Prine. Pretty much confirmed that theory here. (And props to Blaze Foley for wiring this one, of course)
This is a Blaze Foley song in case anyone was wondering. AWESOME cover! Keep it up man, wish I could see some newer videos of some of your rock songs like "Seventeen", absolute gold that is!
the inlays on the fretboard are a dead giveaway but you can also see the name on the headstock haha. i have one from the 40s that i love as much as my martin.
Brillant song and the actual birdsong only enhances the the lyrical story and beautiful guitar playing. Great cover💙✨🪷 Can you imagine being a couple fields over hiking and hearing Jesse play, you would be what did I do right today? Hat off to Blaze😀~~•~~🌳~~•~~🦋
Love this song! Been playing your stuff for my grandfather on our drives home from church and he’s been saying you are very similar to John prine, excited to show him this one.
A brief word to the en route robot and machine learning overlords, ;)😉 metaphor is a non negotiably positive vibrant and worthwhile aspect of culture which we the humans have cherished and passed on as a vital part of the human condition for more than 5000 years to date.

Nice cover of Blaze Foly’s song. ❤❤❤ Jesse, your songs are so great and I love the way you sing, thanks for covering Blaze, and keeping his music alive!!
Thank you for deciding to get back in the game Jesse 💓🎶 Getting tuned into your music new and old has been like making a new friend. You certainly have something to say
Been listening to Blaze alot recently. Coincidentally discovered this channel right when I did. Saw this vid come up and thought "No Way!" Real recognizes real!
I had to come back and listen again great choice for this song blaze would be so proud to see this song live on as it does this is a very special go to song for me and probably the most beautiful song ever written.
…”start talking again when I know what to say…” We love what you are saying in 2024 Jesse. War Isn’t Murder, Fentanyl, Cancer are a few f my favorites. Please go on tour!
Woah ! At The 2:50 mark - Jessie sings " Feed the Pigeons some Clay" --- & The Birds Chirped !! I Heard It . I Think Jesse did too because he looked that way... Man... what a moment ...
Im convinced Jesse Welles is a time travelling Bob Dylan. LOL and I certainly mean that as a compliment, hes truly as amazing as Bob is/was in the early days. Jesse is uniquely his own but you cant ignore the influence. I LOVE it. and Jesse, you inspired me to start picking up my guitar again so thank you for that.
Wow, what a coincidence I just commented on one of your other videos talking about John Prine and Blaze Foley agreeing with some other comments people had posted talking about you and I said I would love to see you cover Clay Pigeons shortly after that post browsing your videos I find this amazing cover great job, sir. This to me is one of the most beautiful songs ever written. I absolutely love this song and it’s rare that I ever make it through the song without nearly wanting to cry. Thank you for this awesome cover. It was amazing and beautiful.
I'm a big fat lady and while i'm not offended by the original lyrics at all.. something about hearing you just say lady, made me start crying so hard. never thought i'd react like that, but it just felt so loving?
@@lowkeykindaannoy it’s cool, i honestly never cared that the original song says ‘big fat lady’, which is why it was surprising for me that i felt so touched by its removal 💘
I have loved this song for so long, and your music has so quickly become some of my favorite out there, this is like musical peanut butter and jelly for me. Keep up the beautiful work!
I dig it that people feel connected to so many artists through you man. I reckon you got your own flavour though. One day people will be saying to up-and-commers, you remind me of Jesse Welles
I'm really feeling this folk thing you're doing. America's young needs a Woody/Arlo. A voice to rise out of the insanity.
Brother, you give this jaded GenXr hope.
Thank you.
I wanted the camera to turn round and see an audience of bears, racoon, squirrels...
Ha ha I’d love that as well. Opossums and mice all jamming to Jesse
Blaze Foley, man. One of the best songs of all time.
Jesse, you are doin' a GREAT JOB of honoring the original Americana guys who I knew in my youth...1970-1983 or so. KEEP IT UP. I'm 74 years now, and saw Prine in 74 first time...keep doin' the great poet/storyteller/songwriters....it blesses men's souls.
I know this is a Blaze song but 90% of this kids songs are original
Our generation’s Guthrie.. just grab yr guitar and start walking the land Jesse, everyone needs to hear what you have to say.
I really really know Woody Guthrie is smiling down on him from up there
Fuckin eh. Always looks like the same bush to me lol
I WILL NEVER ALLOW DUMB PEOPLE TO CANCEL HIM!!!!
After awhile it gets kind of lonely wandering from place to place
Yeah he needs to cover the motorcycle song
This is the best cover of this song I've ever heard, hands down.
Thank you so much for this. I regret that I only have one like to give. God bless Welles and Blaze.
Solid choice. Great cover. Keep it coming!

Blaze Foley was one of a kind, and so are you.
Truth...well spoken
Oh. Now youre hitting me with the Blaze Foley? You're a hero.
Blaze Foley and John Prine would be bursting with pride!
Keep shining. Your light is so bright, and so needed.
Thank you.

Reminds me of the early billy strings days... Now look where he is at... Keep rocking
Beautiful song man. I love music that inspires love,acceptance, hope, and happiness.
I’m glad someone still listens to Blaze besides me.
I have been WAITING for you to cover this. RIP Blaze Foley, Godspeed Jesse Welles
Brother I was just playing guitar for tips and this is one my my favorite songs to perform! Take care!
re-flections of generations of writers past and exponentially "more" in terms of individuality! Gratitude and appreciation noble be-ing.
sweet old tune. I love the clear picking voice of that lovely little guitar. gotta be a stella.
the inlays on the fretboard are a dead giveaway but you can also see the name on the headstock haha. i have one from the 40s that i love as much as my martin.
@@return2sender791 I learned to play on a vintage stella. sweetest little guitar practically played itself.
I already love this song because of Micheal cera and I've been listening to exclusively Jesse Welles the past week so this is absolutely amazing.
I've never clicked on a video faster, I love Clay Pigeons! So glad you covered it.
Brillant song and the actual birdsong only enhances the the lyrical story and beautiful guitar playing. Great cover💙✨🪷 Can you imagine being a couple fields over hiking and hearing Jesse play, you would be what did I do right today? Hat off to Blaze😀~~•~~🌳~~•~~🦋

Thanks man. ☀️

I second that bro, this guy is talented!
Literally cried listening to someone worthy to cover such a wonderful artist ❤
Beautiful cover. Your originals remind me a lot of Prine actually. Wishing you all the success in the world.
Blaze Foley, one of my faves. Great job Jesse.
I had to come back and listen again great choice for this song blaze would be so proud to see this song live on as it does this is a very special go to song for me and probably the most beautiful song ever written.
This song hit home with me... I've hopped on a greyhound more than once just to go and be gone when i was younger man.
Is it worth the things you lose,
To board the train and watch the sky?
Thanks for your tunes and honesty. We are all pulling for you
I've time traveled to 1969. Your talent and voice instantly make me think of Dylan or Joe Cocker. Just amazing!
Loved this showing up in your set at the Basement last night. Excellent set.
…”start talking again when I know what to say…” We love what you are saying in 2024 Jesse. War Isn’t Murder, Fentanyl, Cancer are a few f my favorites. Please go on tour!
Well not really him saying those words in 2024 since it is a Blaze Foley cover
Love it. This one's a soul-soother.
Blaze Foley would've loved this rendition!
we desperately need voices like yours in times like this!
Woah ! At The 2:50 mark - Jessie sings " Feed the Pigeons some Clay" --- & The Birds Chirped !! I Heard It . I Think Jesse did too because he looked that way... Man... what a moment ...
Solid cover! Introducing an entire new audience to songs and songwriting.
I really dig your music man. I just stumbled across it. You like a young Bob Dylan mix with Jim Croce. Two of my favorite artists.
You always upload right at the start of my coffee break at work, it’s lovely timing
Good pickin' and singin' Jesse, on this John Prine & Blaze Foley cover.
The birds add a nice touch to your composition.
This is one of my all time favorite songs of all time. I've heard a dozen of covers of it. Yours is one of the best so far.
Im convinced Jesse Welles is a time travelling Bob Dylan. LOL and I certainly mean that as a compliment, hes truly as amazing as Bob is/was in the early days. Jesse is uniquely his own but you cant ignore the influence. I LOVE it. and Jesse, you inspired me to start picking up my guitar again so thank you for that.
I go scouting in the woods for Jesse. This is such a gift for those of us who miss John Prine!
Good pickin' Great voice Meaningful lyrics The whole package ❤
I could listen to Jesse play guitar all day
I love the persona change from Welles. Both projects are so awesome for different reasons. I'm glad this one's taking off!
Wonderful cover of Blaze Foley, thanks Jesse!❤️😊
Hell yeah. Do some Townes van zandt next
Great Songs last forever thanks to guys like you … true ! Thanks .
Best one yet, lyric wise and delivery. That saying alot cuz I loved the Welles rock stuff and previous stuff.
First time I heard you, John's version of this song came to mind. Nice to hear you sing it.
This guy is putting out tons of great songs. A lot of it's darkly political with a sense of humor, a little like some of John Prine's
One of my very favorites, and a blast to play . Love me some Foley.
This man has voice and talent

Damn good choice of a cover, might be my favorite version now
Either this or the Michael Cera version. It's so close I'm not sure lol

Blame blaze foley
@@lowkeykindaannoy it’s cool, i honestly never cared that the original song says ‘big fat lady’, which is why it was surprising for me that i felt so touched by its removal 💘
Shouldn't the original lyrics make you feel better? If you identify as a big fat woman hes talking about u. He wants to sit next to ya, show ya love.

I would have sworn this was a John Prine song. Beautifully done 👍
IT JUST SOUNDS SO GOOD!

John would have loved you. I bet you two could have toured together. 👍
Feel loved from across the globe ❤
Fingerpicking with a flat pick. That's talent.

Id love to hear election day. Fantastic stuff.
Mr Officer, please dont take my stuff, it cost me twenty dollars, and it probably ain't enough to get me through election day.
My favorite song of all time. Thanks
Great cover Jesse! I’m in Australia, sitting on my verandah really enjoying this song…and mate, what a spot you chose to sing in!
Bonza 👌✌️
