There is nothing like good music to stimulate your inner feelings make you feel alive, happy, put a smile on your face you feel joyful. I have felt all of these emotions while listening to this young man. The wonderful thing about good music age has nothing to do with it because it takes us to a different place it is wonderful. This young man has a very special talent, he has been blessed. I think age is just a no, we are as old as we think, it is best not to get hung up on a number if we are healthy. I think Jesse will appreciate your positive comment, he certainly deserves it. I like you wasn’t borne yesterday as they say I have been around for a time myself . I think we know good music when we hear it because we have heard the very best in days gone by.

    Welles works for over a decade and makes no headway in music. Then he strips away everything. No band. No production values. No nice gear. He wandered into the woods with a funny old guitar so it's just pure, unadulterated Welles, and it's what we were all waiting for without even knowing it.

As a singer, I'd imagine that can be pretty fucking devastating, And I hope that if he worried, He can rest assured now that he found a good Lane. That said, If it's just a way that he can work his voice and still has his more polished version, Good on him!

    I keep coming back to this song. I have played it more times than any song since I was a kid back in the 70's. Now I'm going back to play the BUGS song again. Heart full of love.

    Greatest American songwriter of all time. It will take a lot of beautiful words in proper order to convince me otherwise. A man, a guitar, and a harmonica have found a place in my heart forever.

    This kid is brilliant ! I mean he nails society and the literal crap we are surrounded by today and does it cleverly and with humor and wisdom and on top of that he’s incredibly likable and relatable ! Thank you again and yes : Walmart is just another portal to a type of hell where all reason and logic are robbed and you are sent into a mindless loop ! Bravo young man bravo !
