Even If his only song ever was the wonderwall cover, he would be a legend. Thats such a heartwrenching version of the song. The piano at the end kills me.

Stephen King said "I am not saying he is the best singer songwriter to come out of Canada since neil young, but I not saying he isnt either"

Agree or disagree?

    Ryan is from the States...

    But I agree on his brilliance!

    I'm seeing him open for Oasis in September. SOOO excited!
    Believe me, when I was growin up, I thought the worst thing you could turn out to be was normal, So I say freaks in the most complementary way. Here's a song by a fellow freak - E.V

    haha got it flipped, but this one makes even less sense as Uncle Neil is canadian!

    "I won't say Adams is the best North American singer-songwriter since Neil Young...but I won't say he isn't, either

    Wait....that still makes sense if he said "North American" because North America includes Canada also.

    Ryan Adams also does a GREAT cover of "Down In A Hole" by Alice In Chains.

    I've had a couple of his songs in my head all week, so I threw on Easy Tiger and a couple random songs last night... it's been a while since I've listened to him, forgot how good he is.
    If I could, think I would give in.

    Yeah that is good...I like his cover of wonderwall too
    These cuts are leaving creases. Trace the scars to fit the pieces, to tell the story, you don't need to say a word.

    I absolutely love ryan adams (i posted a mix cd i made on here last week that no one seemed to agree with), but i really don't like his cover of wonderwall or his cover of down in a hole all that much.......i think the originals are vastly superior, but i do like him more than oasis or AIC just not on those songs

    I'm not a fan of Ryan's "Wonderwall."

    This is more my style:

    I caught that on t.v. last night. He was awesome.

    My brother likes his stuff. He put "La Cienega Just Smiled" on my dad's cd. I listen to it a lot.

    I have this policy where I don't get on a plane for anyone but Pearl Jam, but I may have to change my policy for this...
