      Look here for his version of (with) Elvis Costello's Cheap Reward... I hate to say it but I like that version best, not the least beacuse his accent majes for a more natural flow... Soundd so natural, authentic. I think you might enjoy it.

    Every Jack Johnson song has a 'first' and 'second' moment you really notice it.
    First you love it for how chill and soothing it is, you've had a bad day, you're stressed out, and that new Jack Johnson song comes on the radio on your drive home when you're at you're wit's end, and it's just this peace you get with his music.
    Second, though, is when you actually start listening to the lyrics, and realize he's a lyrical mastermind who's layered deep political pathos and progressive introspection into what you thought was just that chill song you play at the beach with your friends.
    It's a fantastic melding of two disparate worlds, and I don't know if anyone else could really make it work so seamlessly.

    Lets get this to be the #1 video from Colbert. It deserves it. Share, Like, Share.... SHARE. Stephen is criminally underrated as an artist, and as a singer. He is humble to a point where it's insulting to himself. Lets' send the love. I come back to this often. For a smile, for a cry, but more importantly to see a man who is so connected to himself that it reaches through the screen and hits me. So much love. Vancouver, BC, Canada.
