after falling in love with Mason's voice and absolutely falling in love with this song, I'm sorry to say that I listened to the kooks version and it sounded...well, to put it frankly, it sounded ridiculous. i couldn't listen to the whole thing. i think that's mostly because it sounds like the kooks just sang it just to sing and their version lacks the feeling that Mason sings with. Just my opinion.
First heard this on KQRS homegrown in 1997 after it was on the self released Mason Jennings album... still as good as ever. The kooks' do it no respect.
let the know it alls dream........theyve been on the planet all of hmmm 12-18yrs ....they know everything..this song is mason jennings song you ignorant twats....kooks are just a puppet spin off indie band , that fellout from the overinflux of the noughtys...this song speaks for itself!!!AWESOME
WOW, the kooks are not a cover band, theyve covered about 5 -6 songs and have two albums and a fuck load of b-sides on unreleases, and The Kooks version of this is mega compared to this shit
The Kooks' acoustic version of this song is much better than their original cover. I'd recommend listening to it.

I like the kooks , but they missed the mark on their cover of this song. it has none of the beauty or feeling that mason puts into it.
