I LOVE this guy (Jesse Welles, a Modern Day Bob Dylan).
I couldn't help thinking about one of my favorite DU posters when I heard this song. Turn CC on to see the lyrics (though he is pretty clear in his singing). I hope this guy goes far and wide.

That really was a flashback to a much earlier era and far younger Peggysue.
Thanks!

Forum awhile back. My favorite song is Red. Jesse is on lots of platforms, Instagram, Pandora, and YouTube. My son got me tickets to see him in Austin area in March 2026.
