A lovely few minutes of insight from a fascinating artist. Love his description of the creative process. Mason seems like a knowledgeable and generous interviewer.
I remember when a friend of mine said "Did you hear that Ed Crawford is playing music again?" My jaw dropped and I looked dumbfounded as he continued, "Yeah, he is in some band called Whiskeytown." If Ryan hadn't picked up Crawford for awhile, it might have been a long time before I was aware of Ryan Adams. Strangers Almanac is one of the best albums, ever, imo. They had some cool singles, as well. I learned how to play Highway 145 16 years or so, ago.
Meniere’s is a terrible disease. It never goes away completely but certain things help. I used to get bad migraines, tinnitus (ear ringing), and vertigo. My vertigo went away almost instantly when I got my wisdom teeth pulled. What. A. Relief. Another thing that helps a lot is Botox injections in the masseter muscle (jaw). The symptoms of Meniere’s can be exacerbated when the muscles in your jaw are so tight they impede on your Eustachian tubes. It looks like Ryan may clench his jaw based on what I can see. Botox helps relax your jaw muscles and keep you from clenching. Helped with my tinnitus a little bit but it’s still there. Also - acupuncture/ dry needling. That stuff is amazing. They insert very tiny needles into your muscles, muscles you didn’t even know were tight, and it’s like a domino effect. All the other muscles in your body start to loosen up and the chi flows through you like a tidal wave because all that energy was dammed up in that point of tension. Amazing stuff.
I don't buy the, "feel like the only guy that doesn't speak French" deal. I think he knows his theory better than he leads on to. Maybe he doesn't talk in meters or the number system, but dude knows what's happening
i discovered Ryan Adams from Adam Duritz doing a cover of Come Pick Me Up and I have loved him ever since. His songwriting is off the charts. Who gives a flip about his hair. His concerts sell out in 2 minutes - believe me and then check eBay a pair go for $800. Someone out there agrees with me, he is a genius.
sheri9987 if he could think of some lyrics that were about something other than females,he would be a much better song writer,he definitely writes some smart beautiful melodies,but not a genius.
Strangers Almanac is great indeed He's released some wonderful music; like his stuff a lot The material with the Cardinals is damn fine, and his solo material more reflective and occasionally raucous
Spring Heeled Jack Ryan Adams is a pretentious non-artist who convinced his fans of his image AND he’s a manipulative abuser and Mandy Moore blames him for that.
@@thestuffmikedoes2309 you're a metoo schill and Ryan Adam's has more talent in his left pinky than you do in your whole being. F Mandy Moore, what a c word.
+Reagan Miller He said it almost did, but Taylor's album saved him. He said after he got divorced he sat around doing covers and listening to 1989 on his cassette so he did a professional cover of it.
I also have bouts of vertigo one minute your fine the next You don’t know where the hell you are . I tipped my head looking for my cat I hit the floor my daughter said it looked like I was on fire doing stop Drop and roll!!
Love the hair, it's shorter now anyway but still edgy. If you see any of his old vids from years ago, he's gone through many stages with "the hair." It's pretty interesting. He was blonde (yes blonde) at one point. Take a look. :-)
I love the fact that Ryan was never driven by commercialism in his writing and performing. That special element speaks loudly to me in his music.

That man is the real deal. Wish I could write music half as good as he does. Absolutely sublime.

I certainly agree w you

If he doesn't win, I'm calling the Grammys BS. Anybody with me?
Reagan Miller
Did he
Whiskeytown’s Pneumonia album...the end.
Ok he’s made some good stuff since then, but that album was his magnum opus.
Strangers Almanac is great indeed
He's released some wonderful music; like his stuff a lot
The material with the Cardinals is damn fine, and his solo material more reflective and occasionally raucous
where is the performance?
A true artist/musician right there!
whats the first song?
I Don't care if his hair is long r short!!The music people the music!!
what kind of fender guitar was he playing?
It's a Fender Jazzmaster in those opening video clips.
thanx
If he doesn't win up against U2'S YEARLY Garbage it's complete bull's hit
+Royal tenenbaum Seriously, outside of U2's first records, they are TIRESOME!!
What's wrong with his head?
R we talking about his hair.R the great music he has made!!
I can't believe someone as beautiful as Mandy Moore was married to this guy. I'm glad she got out.
Mandy is talentless and blames that on Ryan.

@@thestuffmikedoes2309 Yeah, sure
Seriously, he's a hideous cheeseball. And Phoebe Bridgers is an angel goddess on Earth, like how in the actual f---
its a 50/50 feeling cuz he copied Tom Petty but the sound is so clear, crisp and fresh but with the Petty sound, so I like it...I think.
he's amaaaaazing
Just freakin marry me already Ryan! Oh damn... you're already married. Shit.
he's getting a divorce! You can have him now! :)
Ahh.. my heart is actually breaking for them. Hoping this doesn't send him down spiraling.
Reagan Miller are u a mocking bird?
noobzrule Nahhh.. just a plain ole' raven!

His music isnt bad but I feel like this guy tries way too hard with the "musician" look
kinda like when Lenny Kravitz overdoes the rock look. This dude has douchebag hair.
Hes always been the same guy, same look, just older

I don't think he "tries" so much as "embodies". He's looked completely crazy for the past 20 years or so.
Hit the nail on the head Jesse. Finally, somebody gets it.

i guess anybody can be prolific if you just write the skeleton of a song and call it done.
If anybody can be prolific, why aren't you?
What are you talking about?
is this emo?
