Glad I ain't the only one who prefers Jesse's.

I think the song would only have flopped because Jesse's not well known here, not because of his vocal ability.
I'd disagree with the emotion? Jesse wrote it about Katie Cassidy and how he missed seeing her when he was away that it'd 'cut him open' and he'd 'bleed love' for her? [can't remember where I read that though]
I guess it's hard to say as we haven't seen him sing it live.
