Jessie

This song takes me back to my boarding school days in Brighton, it is called 'Jessie' by Joshua Kadison. It is a haunting ode to a a woman that consumes him and always seems to find him at his weakest and when the yearning for her is at it greatest. This song has reduced me to tears (well almost). I've had this song on heavy rotation for over a decade now. What i found out recently is that it his breakup hymn written about his relationship with the actress Sarah Jessica Parker....

Would have posted the video here if i knew how, but here is the link: http://youtube.com/watch?v=q2MgxckYd1k
