Yup That's why I'm looking for similar stuff...or, I wish his songs had a stronger bass line somebody remix

I personally think Ben Harper sucks... I listened to some of his stuff and saw him on TV bleh. Strange because I LOVE Jack Johnson. I haven't found lyrics with so many wise quotes in them... even if many of them have already been said

I don't like some of Ben Harpers stuff, but he also has some excellent pieces. Listen to the following before passing final judgement. You might have only heard some of his bad stuff.

Another Lonely Day
The Drugs Don't Work
Sexual Healing (I believe this was origionally a Marvin Gaye song)
Walk Away
Waiting on an Angel
Forever
Give A Man A Home
Alone
Burn One Down

Wes Cunningham, perhaps?

But I'm not sure if he's done anything recently.
