Jake delivered so many of his songs for comedic effect, but they are also so full of heart and compassion. I always find myself welling up when he sings Our Dog. It's mostly a bloody funny, quirky, observational song, but the love and compassion blazes through. God, I so wish I'd met the man.
It's wonderful to see how he plays some of these songs, his chording is so original. And what a wordsmith! Thanks for making this footage available. Where do you source the material??
True genius, greatly missed.
