SUPERB!!
Something a little different. Very nice!
I'm a huge Jesse Cook fan.  There are much better tracks than this if you're interested in his music at all.  See him live if you ever have a chance- amazing performer!
Yanni Lite is not an inaccurate description.  Yanni full-flavored is pretty great, and so is this, in a lighter gentler way.  Love it.
Music by the numbers.
Elevator Music.
Muzak.
Music for people who don't like Music.

All of the above are preferable to this insipid, averagely played tat.

What leads you to the conclusion that he wants to seem sensitive and intellectual?  Maybe he just hates wearing shoes. . .

I seem to recall that the fiddle music is called "sweeping cri-d'coer style" .. or something like that.

No, seriously ... cry d' core as in cry from the heart.

Hey, Excelsior, wadda you think?

Like Paul on Abbey Road?
I like this track a lot.
And I would like the album cover better if his shirt was off.
despite what musicians...male or female..look like...one should rate their ability and jesse does have that going for him

Barefoot, sensitive and intellectual...and no idea what to do with his hair! This song's OK though!

You asked for it ... It's Yanni Lite!

Mmm...I am so grooving on the percussion and the rhythm is smooth and oh so exotic without being corny.
Try some other Jesse Cook if you want exotic corn. This one's alright, I guess.
First time I've hear it on RP since I uploaded it a few months back. Nice. If you've never seen him live do so, he puts on a very decent show (regardless of your opinion of his hair :-)">

Yes. I like Jesse Cook! I have a couple of his CD's. I could care less how he looks (and I'm a woman).

It's not a mullet, and it's not hippie hair; It's just BAD hair.
That ain't no stinkin' mullet! JC's got way too much class for that. Here's a closer look: (click here)

I love this more every time I hear it. Anybody know how the rest of the album sounds? This song may be enough to sell it to me, though.
Please Bill, I beg you...cease the sleepy afternoon set. I am dying over here and am going to be forced to (horrors!) turn you off!

Are you sure? Looks like the classic Camaro Crash Helmet/Kentucky Waterfall/Missouri Compromise to me.

he's talented, but has an unfortunate image.
no shoes?
great mix from Sarah McLachlan - Possession -> Jesse Cook - Cri. Nice one!

true origin of "mullet" hair cut is India. Take a look at this insanely funny bollywood-like 10 minutes long movie: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YxSH64k0KfA

Great guitar player. He needs to do something about that hair, though.

Wow, the perfect segueway from Possession into this....right on key. Never heard this...jury is out - sounds a bit Riverdance-ish...

Oh...I am still in an 18 minute porcupine tree trance...from the last song.
