i love jesse's covers because i see him as an average listener that gets moved by the songs so he simply takes out a guitar and plays it. i love jesse with all my heart. brand new will be my favorite band for ever and jesse will be my favorite writer forever. he is my idol.
I think most of Jesse's covers are generally a real match for the originals but - though I love Jesse singing these lyrics - this cover is definately not on the same level as Cohen's.
i can't believe he covers this song! It's one of the great's! Jesse's taste in music is unbelievable. Between him , Kevin Devine and Andy hull , they all do such great covers and have such good lyrics in there own songs!
every crows should be this quiet when watching jesse live. he's fucking amazing.

calm down a little. I'm sure Jesse doesn't care if someone named Fenvox79 gave him a bad review.
