Jesse /ˈdʒɛs.iː/,Isai or Yishai (Hebrew: יִשַׁי, Modern Yishay, Tiberian Yīšáy, meaning "God exists" or "God's gift"; Arabic: يَسَّى Yassa; Syriac: ܐܝܫܝ Eshai; Greek: Ἰεσσαί Iessai; Latin: Isai, Jesse) is the father of David, who became the king of the Israelites. His son David is sometimes called simply "Son of Jesse" (Ben Yishai).
Jesse was the son of Obed and the grandson of Ruth and of Boaz. He lived in Bethlehem, in Judah, and was of the Tribe of Judah, he was a farmer, breeder and owner of sheep. He was a prominent resident of the town of Bethlehem. Jesse is important in Judaism because he was the father of the most famous King of Israel. He is important in Christianity, in part because he is in the Old Testament and mentioned in the genealogy of Jesus. Later rabbinic traditions name him as one of four ancient Israelites who died without sin, the other three being Benjamin, Chileab and Amram.
Jesse Malin (born January 26, 1968, Flushing, Queens, New York, United States) is an American rock musician. He is currently a solo recording artist.
Malin began his music career, at the age of 12, as the front-man for the seminal New York City hardcore band Heart Attack. The band auditioned at CBGBs but were denied because they wouldnt bring in a drinking crowd to the bar. Following the demise of that band in 1984, Jesse worked on several other projects, including the band Hope, before joining glam punk band D Generation for which he was the lead singer for eight years. As one of New York City's most noted bands of the 1990s, D Generation released three albums, including No Lunch before eventually disbanding in April 1999.
Malin didn't stop writing music and went on to form two other projects, PCP Highway (with former D Generation bandmates Howie Pyro and Joe Rizzo) and Bellvue (also named Tsing-Tsing for a brief time); the latter band released one album, To Be Somebody on Goldenseal Records. The album included versions of songs that would later be reworked for Malin's first two solo albums, including Solitaire, Basement Home, Brooklyn and Downliner.

Oh, the city was changing
The cigarette hit the spot
Oh, a simple distraction
From to have and have not
And the radio went silent
And all our heroes had died
Now you can buy revolution
In any color or size
Standing on a corner watching people walk on
Thinking about a photograph
How so many people choose a lesser evil?
Living in the aftermath
Oh, she never got famous
She was the star in my life
'Til we drifted like runoff
Or two ships in the night
Standing on a corner watching people walk on
Thinking about a photograph
How so many people choose a lesser evil?
Living in the aftermath
Down a long hard road
Such a long hard road
To hold on and move on
And I hope she's happy
And I hope she's free
Somehow we choose our own destiny
From the eve of destruction
To the valley of tears
Before it all went to voice mail
And we rang in the year
And the midnight martyrs
Well, they still hang on the cross
You can die in the gutter baby
Or learn to live with the loss
Well, I've standing on a corner watching people walk on
Thinking about a photograph
How so many people choose a lesser evil?
Living in the aftermath
Well, I keep standing on a corner, everybody's talking
Remember when we used to laugh?
How so many people choose a lesser evil?
Never giving peace a chance
Down a long hard road
Such a long hard road
To hold on and move on
Down a long hard road
Such a long hard road
To hold on and move on, boys
