dude, I listen to your words and they remind me that i used to be cool, i''ve been hitting the strings since you did that john prine cover and i'm slaying it dude, for the first time in decades, you, sir, are a tonic for a sour taste in my mouth, you are gonna change this dull grey world my man, mark my words, you glorious bastard.
How does someone stay this inspired? song after song. war isn't murder hit 1,000,000 listens on spotify a few days ago. been watching and rooting. The amount of work you have been putting in is.... humbling. that's a lot of feelings and thoughts to sort through, and transforming that into this, week after week... there is a lot to say but nothing greater than Thank You. Truly.
Working 55 hours a week to feed four kids and keep lights on, lately been singing the Star Spangled Bummer instead. Once again you raise the bar, nice Jesse!
Jesse I owe you some royalties cause I play this song about a dozen times a day and it lives in my head. You are mega talented and big things are ahead for you without a doubt.
I subbed (not long ago) when you had around 500, amazes me how quickly you can write new songs with witty, clever and poignant lyrics, often about recent topical subjects. Also love the way you’re playing with a pick and chicken picking with your other 3 fingers, really like your style man, world needs music like this right now. Keep it up, I have a feeling you’re going to be a legend.
You must never sleep J. Keep em coming. These are so much more powerful than your full band (which also rocks). You really give hope and proof that music can be real again. MMRA.
Wow, let it flow Jesse, just keep letting these songs flow. They are all so thoughtfully crafted and thought provoking, just what our society needs right now!
Ya needed a new guitar after tossing, falling and whipping the other ones through the brush? 😂 Oh, Jesse… If only your comment section was so open to the songs in the heart of everyone they come into contact with that they are with yours. We’re all doing our dang best, just some of us are off key or really bad at whistling, but the song is there. ❤❤❤ Have a good rest of your week, I hope there’s something amazing for you to write about tomorrow.
Keep up the great work, Jesse. What you are doing right now feels extremely important for the soul of our country. Keep doing and saying what you feel is right, you are a breath of fresh air.
This is just some fun music. I don't listen to this genre at all, but ever since the RUclips algorithm pushed Jesse so hard I've enjoyed every tune he's put out. Many are really good all around. Always impressed with how quick he's ready to put something out regarding current events.
I discovered that I physically cannot whistle the way you do. Genetically, my tongue does not have the dexterity. I'd have to stick my fingers in my mouth and shape it to do the way you do. Great music
1. As a singer guitarist who covers the Star Spangled Banner, I concur. It is hard to sing. That's why I just do an instrumental version. But seriously, it's an odd arrangement with a big range. It's legit hard to sing. 2. Jesse sporting a new guitar with his well deserved RUclips money. 3 . Jesse still getting the feel for his new guitar and clicking the pick on the body for extra accidental percussion.
Great like always. Actually, another very controversial subject considering it was possibly originally a drinking song for the British called to anacreon on in heaven. And Francis Scott Key couldn't carry a tune in a bucket yet he's also on the British ship watching America be bombed because he says he's held hostage in a prisoner of negotiation. So be it.
I was guessing there was historical subtext I didn't know about and now I know where to start looking 🤠 Please what was "Anacreon on in heaven"? as autocorrect capitalised Anacreon it's a place, or a ship? 🤔
@LimeyRedneck I believe it was just a group of British poets and songwriters and drunks that hung out in a bar and pinched The Maids on the ass and told bad jokes. The club song they wrote was to anacreon in heaven. Which sets the melody for Star-Spangled Banner supposedly
Perfect 👍 I love your incredible timing, wow you got so many historical references in this. My husband is a big fan of you now, you have your finger on the pulse of the USA!! Much love and come to Washington State, the west side of Washington, like Bellingham and the Wild Buffallo, or the historic Mount Baker theater in Bellingham or the Lincoln Theatre in Mt. Vernon. I hope you have a Road Manager who books shows for you!!❤❤❤❤❤

It's hard to play on the guitar and make it sound good while singing it😂 I thought I was about to learn it from you LO.L. Really like in the tunes You bang kicking out man!
They are not 3/4 size, at the time that was called "standard size" which translated to about 13" lower bout. 24,25" scale length is on the shorter side tho.
At this point I'm just getting all my news from Jesse

I feel like humanity finally has a modern day bard.
That was Jesse Stewart. THIS Jesse is like the modern John Stewart but set to music.
Same❤
It's just cause you've missed out on all the thousands of others
I feel like youve never heard Rens first few big songs lol
It’s just a few of us on RUclips dude. Ya’ll need to settle down

Nailed it. Thanks again Jesse
You and me both brother. All of it.
Get that old git box in your lap whenever you can, I sure miss mine.
@@Dooderduderthedudewhatdudes Sounds like a story there. git box, yes sir.
Love the subtle shift in the middle from “it’s hard to sing” because it’s difficult to “it’s hard to sing” because America.
@@z-beeblebrox whole lot of people are missing that part

That lick right after the whistling
God damn Jesse
That grin and twinkle in the eyes... he knows how good this one is 🥰
plot twist: these were all recorded in 2018 and Jesse has just predicted recent events in song 😂
Current events music is genius

Comments equal cash.. say something to help this guy continue providing me with music/news!
Yeah this type of music is perfect for right now.
You, Jesse, are writing and singing all the national anthems I actually want to hear.
Well said. Jesse's a treasure for sure.
His older rock music from his band "Welles" is pretty good too, but this solo stuff is just…it's amazing.
Boy that’s some good pickin and a grinnin right there boy. I love your tunes sir.
This talent does not come from the public institutionalized facilities where young people are confined for 9 months of the year.
Working 55 hours a week to feed four kids and keep lights on, lately been singing the Star Spangled Bummer instead. Once again you raise the bar, nice Jesse!
The teeth whistle tho. God i love this man and his music. You sir are what we need more of.
Jesse I owe you some royalties cause I play this song about a dozen times a day and it lives in my head. You are mega talented and big things are ahead for you without a doubt.
Jesse, you are amazing. You and the music, lyrics and greenery make me smile. Much love to you and yours.
Six months from now you are going to be huge... don't forget where you came from and us little people that been here from the beginning...
He’s already huge, these are just reposts from his TikTok. . .

Hendrix had an answer: Don't sing it, scream it!
You're a modern folk country legend.
the pauses and restarts are so confident and smooth, really commands attention!
"Sing it front of a herd of drunken dudes" 😂
You must never sleep J. Keep em coming. These are so much more powerful than your full band (which also rocks). You really give hope and proof that music can be real again. MMRA.
Rip Van Winkle has awoken from the 1970's. Very much enjoyed!
Rip Van Winkle
Wow, let it flow Jesse, just keep letting these songs flow. They are all so thoughtfully crafted and thought provoking, just what our society needs right now!
We all need to stand together with love and sing them hard old songs sometimes, That’s what makes them live again.
Ya needed a new guitar after tossing, falling and whipping the other ones through the brush? 😂
Oh, Jesse… If only your comment section was so open to the songs in the heart of everyone they come into contact with that they are with yours.
We’re all doing our dang best, just some of us are off key or really bad at whistling, but the song is there.
❤❤❤
Have a good rest of your week, I hope there’s something amazing for you to write about tomorrow.
Here! Here! I don't know where you came from. But you have an old soul. And you're relevant as f**k!
I've been impressed, critical and all sorts of other things with you Jesse. This one was real neat. Thanks.
I love this one! The lyrics are bit more subtle than most of the songs on this channel. 👍
6 yrs ago your music was awesome in every meaning of the word. Today youve reached a level that is indescribable. Please never quit
dude is a songwriting machine
Keep up the great work, Jesse.
What you are doing right now feels extremely important for the soul of our country.
Keep doing and saying what you feel is right, you are a breath of fresh air.
its like jesse is a news channel or something, hes so fast with it and more informative
I love this one. Truly theres not a song I don't love from this man
Man really knows his history! Thankful for this voice of reason.
I don’t know whether that’s a new guitar, or if you don’t use it often, but I really like its tone man.
"I can't breathe, and I can't see..." but I can still feel this song. ❤
that riff was insane I fucking love this song god bless you
Rough song to sing indeed. I have anxiety anytime someone tries. It makes the better ones stick out ... like Whitney in 1991.
Such a talented songwriter
Nice guitar! 🇺🇸
You ain't first tho
holy shit we got a guitar update
I was thinking the same thing
You are a very talented musical story teller😀
All the news that's fit to sing
DANNNNNG!!! 🔥 such an excellent song. Your lyrics, the picking, the singing-everything. Thank you for this.
All great songwriters through time have preached tolerance and empathy.
Good on you, Jesse. You made me smile today.
🤘 The dragonflies love it too
Your music is like if Bob Dylan played Grunge.
Mad respect bro!
This is just some fun music. I don't listen to this genre at all, but ever since the RUclips algorithm pushed Jesse so hard I've enjoyed every tune he's put out. Many are really good all around. Always impressed with how quick he's ready to put something out regarding current events.
This song is Compassion set to music. Amen.
Jesse, you are just incredible brother! ✝️🇺🇲💯
You are one of the coolest songwriters I've seen in a long time.
Your music brings me joy. ❤
Loving it
John Prine would be proud.
Love your whistle..as well as your voice, playing,attitude, looks..etc..
Fella sees the news on Monday and releases a banger about it on Tuesday
He made a song about it hours after the attempt
This dude is amazing. Tune after tune
Love teeth whistling
This is really good and whip-fast songwriting, and great delivery
Jesse out here filling that hole John P left in our hearts, souls, and thinkin minds
First I’ve seen of him just now and I immediately thought of John Prine
I fu**ing love your music man
Me too! Have you listened to Fear Is The Mind Killer yet?? My absolute favorite so far
Another instant classic, keep rockin
Love the new Stella. Loved the old one too. I love Stella’s and I really like what you are doing with them. Epic!
Oh Wow. Very Nice! Congratulations for earning over One Hundred Thousand Subscribers!! you rock. very refreshing
35mins since this tune dropped n 65 comments,,, keep the tunes coming young fella
Jesse continues to prove that he's exactly music and culture needs rn.
Just found out about this artist and I am OBSESSED! Hope you keep it up
You are a hero and inspiration to many people
I discovered that I physically cannot whistle the way you do. Genetically, my tongue does not have the dexterity. I'd have to stick my fingers in my mouth and shape it to do the way you do. Great music
Something else that gets me, the highest note sang in the star spangled banner is "free"
“That’s how we got it”🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣❤️
amazing Jesse. You write songs faster than I have time to listen to them 🙂
as an otter i can confirm that the star spangled banner is indeed hard to sing
1. As a singer guitarist who covers the Star Spangled Banner, I concur. It is hard to sing. That's why I just do an instrumental version. But seriously, it's an odd arrangement with a big range. It's legit hard to sing.
2. Jesse sporting a new guitar with his well deserved RUclips money.
3 . Jesse still getting the feel for his new guitar and clicking the pick on the body for extra accidental percussion.
😊✌️
You just gotta start off in a key that suits your voice, brother 😉👍
How is every song this good?!?! Whatever you're doing, please, carry on
Great like always. Actually, another very controversial subject considering it was possibly originally a drinking song for the British called to anacreon on in heaven. And Francis Scott Key couldn't carry a tune in a bucket yet he's also on the British ship watching America be bombed because he says he's held hostage in a prisoner of negotiation. So be it.
I was guessing there was historical subtext I didn't know about and now I know where to start looking 🤠

*Lyrics*
The Star Spangled Banner is hard to sing
Blame it on the alcohol or Francis Scott Key
Oh say, oh say, oh can't you see
That dag-gone flag song is hard to sing
Roseanne had some trouble with it
Carl Lewis was pretty bad
Fergie had a moment
Ingrid went to rehab
It was the Battle of Baltimore
The year is 1810 and four
Francis Scott Key wrote a poem real quick
And he set it to a tune by Mr. John Smith
That's how we got it
The Defense of Fort McHenry is a difficult tune
Hell I can hardly sing but it sure beats me
It can prob-ly beat you, too
It's got a melody spannin' centuries
With words I've never used
And you mostly gotta sing it in front of a big ole herd of drunken dudes
It's hard to do
And it's hard enough to sing
Let alone enough to mean
You got war and gore on the TV screen
And every damn thing's a conspiracy
Man, Star Spangled Banner's kinda hard to sing
uh-huh
♪ [whistling]
~Chorus~
Damn, You are inspiring Jessie.
Thank you for keeping it real and keeping it musical.
Oh nice new guitar.
It is hard to sing, for so many reasons!
It's hard to play on the guitar and make it sound good while singing it😂 I thought I was about to learn it from you LO.L. Really like in the tunes You bang kicking out man!
Your 3/4 guitars make me so envious
They are not 3/4 size, at the time that was called "standard size" which translated to about 13" lower bout. 24,25" scale length is on the shorter side tho.
My Dog Auggie and I are singing whistling harping and howling along... the weight of the world got a tad lighter
Auggie doggy! St. Aug dog?!
I love the way you perform!
Fun tune, Jesse! Love it!
This is great stuff! Awesome guitar
This gives me John Prine vibes. 🔥💚
Our country is slowly going to hell but at least we get some amazing talented musicians from it
