Ryan Adams

Post by I AM ME »

Anyone listen to him?

i liked his cover of 'wonderwall' but after trying out some of his new stuff i really like it. Which is odd because most of it is alt-country and i hate anything with even a tinge of country in most cases. But this stuff is good. I guess talent and quality music shines through in any genre.

I'm not a big Whiskytown fan though, i don't care if they are critical darlings

try out any of his stuff from "Heartbreaker " or " Love is Hell Pt. 1" "Love is hell Pt. 2"

Ryan Adams is absolutely amazing. Rock & Roll is cool, Love Is Hell (1&2) are great, Heartbreaker is gorgeous, and Demolitionhas some gems, as well. Plus, Gold ain't bad (Where the Stars Go Blue & Goodnight Hollywood Boulevard).
"When looking up there, I just felt whole, like I belonged. Like one day I too would shine my most brilliant. Sitting there also made me think about sitting through services at my little country church back home. About that never-changing congregation of the same sixty-seven people and everyone has known you since before you were born. Now, out here in the real world, everything just seemed more vivid than when I used to sit in that little pew. That pew that was now so, so far away from where I was. I feared I had somehow left God behind there, too. I feared he was somehow just sitting there, saving my seat on the fifth pew from the front row, just waiting on me to come back. I left so quickly, I worried that he may not have noticed I was gone. And, now, I’m just too far away to find. So he’s just sitting there, patiently waiting on me to come back. I closed my eyes and prayed a moment. I hoped more than anything that he could still hear me." -an excerpt from my novella, A Sea of Fallen Leaves.

Yeah, I'm currently loving Ryan Adams. Bought love is hell (pt 1) when it was out and really liked it but had a bit of a money crisis so only recently managed to get pt 2. Very very good :) I LOVE Gold and Rock 'n' Roll :D

His cover of wonderwall is fantastic :)
