It's funny how some songs, you just have to hear a few chords a bit of warbling for Ho-Hum to leap out at you. This is one such  . Mind you, all the Ryan Adams songs I've heard on here are an almost automatic Ho-Hum. I wonder if you can set up a batch prog for ratings? ;). A nailed-on 3 from the somnolent Nottingham jury. |

It really does depend on the night. I've seen him several times and when he's drunk or in a bad mood the concerts can be spotty affairs. When he's on, you will not see a better concert —- absolute magic. And yeah, this is a great tune. |

Ryan Adams, love 'im or hate 'im, there doesn't seem to be a large middle ground.
I love him (his music).

I was about to switch my internet radio connection from RP to the baseball game. Then this song came on. I can't bring myself to turn off RP when this is playing. I've heard it 1,000 times, and I can pop the CD in any time I want to hear it, but I still have to listen to it all the way through.

I wouldn't recognize a Backstreet Boys song if I heard one. I hear they are a kiddie pop singing and dancing group. I'm surprised any RP listener would listen to that. |

Ryan Adam's "Gold" is one of my favorite albums of all time. Unfortunately it also reminds me of the attacks of September 11, 2001. A "Ten" on an album with many.

Actually, the flag is rightside up. It is the photo that is upside down (Ryan was hanging upside down when the photo was taken.). |

Oh well. Still a 10 in my book. I'm a big fan of all of his albums. Saw him live once, and he wasn't very good.
This trick is seeing a show when he is sober. Much, much better. And he doesn't fall of the stage or stumble into his drummer.
Saw him at a show in DC several years ago and then saw him a bit later that evening stumbling around Adams Morgan. Pretty funny. |

Perhaps. Though, the actor Michael Keaton's real name is Michael Douglas, soooo, you can see behind his ultimate decision there.... |

Sometimes artists are like that. Enjoy the art at home not in a concert hall. |
