  • Gotta love the idiots who take the time to post a negative comment. They took the time to listen to the song and watch the video but have nothing good to say about... Brainiacs.

  • Beautiful :-)

  • I feel like crap cuz i miss my dreams in CA and this song is consoling me.

  • those are some rock'n'roll glasses.

  • I can see why the album was called 'Heartbreaker'..

  • M in Jax fl and ill get back to Sweet Carolina.Its gotta beat this place.Tears on this one.

  • Volto aqui todos os dias so pra ouvir essa música!

  • a man i care a great deal about introduced me to Ryan...so beautiful

  • what key is the harmonica he uses?

  • @mrdrewskibaby I think C or G

  • I don't know why he doesn't play harmonica much any more besides maybe its jut not his thing, or maybe it hurts his ear. But I swear if its because of, for lack of a nicer term, ignorant people comparing him to dylan or hating on him for being like dylan, then i really hate you people...

  • This guy has forgotten more about great songwriting than most of us ever knew. So many other great acts have covered his songs as well!

  • modern day dylan

  • /watch?v=rhK_aEOrwCc

    Found out this sweet cover! Check it out

  • EM U are retarded, later dude.

  • @emuLATERdude5by5 the best music isn't usually made by people who can "play others under the table". it takes soul, brotha.

  • I almost cried listening to this guy.

  • @emuLATERdude5by5 junk? really? apparently you have good taste in music, u must just be too young and naive to realize how heartbreaking this music is. Im glad u know rock n roll, but this man transcends any label, and if you did have to put one on him i dont think it would be rock n roll. If u think u can make music like this please dear god do so, because ryan adams can only come out with so much, and the rest of todays music is crappppp. I need something to listen to, so, have at it...

  • this guy is a little weird,he was on the BBC to do a collaboration with 2 other musos and decided at the last second he wouldn't play or do backing vocals while one of the other artists were playing..he said later it wasnt mandatory to play,but that was the whole reason why he was invited to play in the first place...wacko

  • @emuLATERdude5by5 so because he plays an acoustic guitar and harmonica he's copying Dylan? If thats the point your making then anyone who's picked up a guitar since 1966 and played popular music has copied Dylan and no emotion? Everyday must be a roller coaster of emotion for you, to think theres no emotion in this performance and take bonzo out of zeppelin and you have no emotion and him being the drummer doesn't make it an equal comparison to this song

  • Comment removed

  • I bet you like Bryan Adams!!! Hard core cheese!!! LOL!!!

  • Comment removed

  • @emuLATERdude5by5 hes not trying to be Dylan!!! Your seat in your ways!!! This man is pure class!!!NO EMOTION N BORING!!!WHAT???? YOU TAKING THE PISS!!!

  • IS that a Bb harmonica?

  • How can 4 chords and a bunch of words make me cry?

  • This reminds me of The Joshua Tree sorta

  • @henreezzy28 This was years before "Sweet Disposition" by Temper Trap. Nice try though.

  • gay

  • @henreezzy28 you do realize this came before the temper trap, and their song is referencing this right?

  • very intimate

  • Hi!

    I'm a massive Ryan Adams fan! I think you may also like my music? I was wondering if you wouldn't mind having a listen to my new demo 'Yes I would' by my project 'Lets Make Movies Instead...' and let me know what you think? leave a comment etc...

    Peace,

    Gavin.

  • That's so weird, why the heck can't he hit that "sweet?"

  • the sweetest winds blow across the south

  • he looks too be in bad shape here emotionally from drugs, this song is a cry for help it seems.

  • @Elkins2424 i think hes just performing, and expressing himself

  • @mjayne2011 No, he was a huge drug addict. I believe he's clean now, funny how all the druggies have the good voices

  • @CrucialGreg They get a good voice from the drugs.

  • @MsWillange That's why I do em (kidding :P )

  • @Elkins2424 A brilliant performance regardless, and he has been sober for several years

  • James Taylor Diciple... VERY GOOD!!!!

  • greatest songwriter of all time singin about the greatest state of all time

  • Apparently, he's just done a duet of this with Laura Marling at Abbey Road. I hope it surfaces on YT sometime soon.

  • this guys is rocking :)

  • He is one of my favorites.

  • I'm really not listening to guitar I really hate it it reminds me of country I really cannot stand it

  • I'm not gonna lie, I didn't know Ryan Adams at all before this video, but I'm so glad I watched it! I bought the Zac Brown Band's "You Get What You Give" CD (which I would highly recommend) some time back, and they included a cover of this song as a bonus track. I always really enjoyed the song, and I'm really glad it ended up leading me to such a great artist! The kind of pure emotion he shows, like when his voice breaks singing "sweet"... reminds you how powerful and beautiful music can be.

  • Jacksonville, NC, represent!

  • those 70 people dont know music. This guy=music genius

  • He's good but he can bore you to death!

  • Does anybody know where and for what this was recorded?

  • how the fuck can 70 ppl dislike that?

  • His songs are so raw and captivating. I love you, Ryan Adams :)

  • he looks so gorgeous in this video!

  • Does anyone know what key that harmonica is in?

  • @reej10 d

  • Ryan Adams is one of the best musicians ever...you dont have to be screaming at the top of your lungs to be amazing...Ryan shows that

  • My ex was from NC and we both loved RA. What once soothed me now kills me inside

  • @Wrightis I know the feeling.

  • @Wrightis My ex also loved Ryan and introduced me to him. he became one of my fav artist. I still love his music. fuck her lol

    

  • @mnpry87 hahaha

  • @mnpry87 I bet you play a lot of 'Come pick me up' then.

  • @mnpry87 hahaha i like that...bitches ain't shit

  • @Wrightis pus

  • @Wrightis that's so sad.i don't think DRA would want that; i mean,think of all the songs he wrote that must remind him of times he'd rather not remember but he still plays them because they're beautiful and he probably knows that it's no good dwelling on things that make you sad. i think one day his songs willl soothe you again.hope i'm right(:

  • @Wrightis Hey man do I know that feeling! Relax and do not beat yourself up. You are are not a bad guy; look in the mirror. move on!

    

  • Delicate. Love this style through to the heavier Nuclear sound!

    Change of pace but I saw this band on youtube. The 87. "The Print" is their demo track that Ryan Adam fans might like.

  • Lyrical & musical genius.................

  • @neilfan1971 Amen!

  • i want those shades.

  • This is such a sweet song, I loved it right away. Don't troll it guys!

  • spin your records dude....put your 4/4 beats together....but dont talk shit on ppl who actually write different kinds of music....remember you need technology...this guy just runs on his feelings and puts it in a song. sorry you can't fist pump to it

  • I totally have the biggest crush on this song. North KAKALAKI natives represent!

  • so much better live<3

  • this was not the song i was looking for but i sure am glad i found it, awesome song

  • i dont really know much about hipster music, but im gonna assume that anything with more than 37 views isnt hipster anymore haha

  • Def....some Bruce influence there ...

  • hipster? if you think this is hipster shit, yr seriously outta the fucking loop

  • @soundcell why dont you go and worry more about your little Killzone 3 controller lock issue you musically inclined n00b!

  • @Dav1dwuzhere I've been a drum and bass DJ for over 10 years, so yeah, I am musically inclined more so than this twangy acoustic guitar shit that sounds the same as all the other acoustic guitar shit. This sounds like dirt in audio form.

  • @soundcell If you don't like it how about you don't listen to it and shut the f up

  • @soundcell cool story bro. Lets hear it again?

  • @soundcell Your voice more than likely sounds like a wailing walrus being fucked by your mother and her strap-on.

  • @soundcell A DJ is musically inclined? More than this guy? Thanks for the laugh. I needed that today. It takes a special talent and feeling to be 10% of what Ryan Adams is. I could put a tiny pair of headphones on my cock and mimic you exactly.

  • This is what songs are supposed to be. Super simple, but impossible to acheive. Heartbreaking, but not sappy.

    Ryan Adams is a talented, talented man.

  • The way his voice breaks whenever he sings the word 'sweet' is heartbreaking. So good.

  • lol stop talking about nickelback! they're terrible. Ryan Adams is the man, though.

  •  have a listen too kulu change of heart video on youtube. Album no rider out i tunes now!!!

  • Absolute magic.

  • If you like singer songwriters artists such as Ryan Adams, Gram Parsons, Neil Young, Jackson Browne, Van Morrison, Townes Van Zantes, A.A. Bondy, Beachwood Sparks Stop by and hear the latest recordings form "Skyline Drive." An Americana sinewer songwriter projected based out of Topanga Canyon. It is fronted by new comer Derek Thomas and features former Ryan Adams side man Erik Kristiansen on pedal steel.

  • favorite song ever.

  • "Bought a borrowed suit and learned to dance"

  • i have heard this many times but still come backk 4 more .............I identify with this song so much ........ fuck u Ryan gonna go cry now hahabahjagab a

  • This guy is amazing.

  • Ryan Adams & Pablo Blaqk you must grow to love <3

  • Seriously, isn't this what all music is supposed to sound like?

  • what performance is this from?

  • @dogman652 I think this was at a radio station in his early days ,like 2002 2003

  • he has cool hair

  • greatest song ever

  • me and this song have been through some serious stuff

    

  • This is one of those songs I'd want to fall asleep to but I'd also want to stay up just to finish listening to it.

  • @AdaylaDefiance couldný say it better ;))

  • Please play this song at my funeral....autorepeat

  • Amazing delivery! You've got to be hot to have Emmylou Harris sing on your debut album!

    If you like Ryan Adams you might also like my music. I'm an alt-country songwriter based in the UK. Check out the vids on my profile and let me know what you think! No Emmylou Harris though :(

  • incrível, gosto muito! <3

  • what a guy

  • "the sunset's just my lightbulb burning out" magic

  • Fantastic song and fantastic delivery! If y'all like this, check out fellow NC singer/song writer, Karla Davis. Like Ryan, she puts lots of emotion in the songs that she writes and sings.

  • ryan adams is the most talented song writer / singer i know of. every song has meaning and touches you in some way. if no one can appreciate his music, then you dont know what music is ..... sirrmj

  • ryan n mandy should do some duets! :P

  • @deviatea

    listen to "fix it" made by them ;)

  • Thanks to Paul of AI I now know who Ryan Adams is. I think now I am in love with Ryan and I definitely love Paul. Wish he would win the AI. Shame on JLo who didnt know who Ryan Adams is. She claims to be a singer a superstar. I am sure she knows who Mandy Moore is.

  • Simply Amazing!!

  • Apparently 68 people sneezed when they went to click the Like button.

  • I second that Leslie, This is also my favorite song by Adams. And I was pretty surprised to hear him honored on American Idol.

  • I was so stoked that Paul from American Idol covered a Ryan Adams song.

    While most people, including J Lo, had no idea who Ryan Adams was, I was jumping up and down in my room singing along. I loved his cover of Come Pick Me Up.

    This is by far my favorite Ryan Adams song. Probably one of the greatest songs ever written.

    Honored to say he's from the great state North Carolina<3

  • Not really sure I like Ryan as a man, can come across quite moody, but wow is he talented, this song shows his talent more than any, a beautiful song, wonderful...

  • Ryan with an R!

  • Comment removed

  • GOSH, when he plays the harmonica, i got chills all over my body!

    He's AWESOME, i can't deny it!

    After hearing this song, i realised that i really love her. (I'm talking about my love :p)

  • @AcousticfellowThe i'm sorry, but a song can't tell you that. It can only say how nice it is to feel like this, and how nice it is to think of someone.

  • My favorite Ryan Adams song. He's definitely an underrated musician. I really miss the beautiful female backing vocals from the album, but this is so raw. I love it!

  • this is why yer a god, Ryan

  • He could be our modern day Bob Dylan. He could get there but a long way to go to walk in his shoes.

  • Oh my good god, this is easily the best version of this song he's done. I love the fact that he's almost whispering in some parts with his voice cracking, beautiful.

  • Looks the spitting double of Johnny Marr here

  • gambled up my life

  • Stop by my hand to listen to my band coving RA songs. Thanks Ya'll

  • He is so amazing.

  • i learned to play harmonica just for this song. thanks ryan!

    ...gives me the creeps...

  • i aint never been to vegas, but i gambled all my life

  • gorgeous x

  • just beautiful.

  • Does anyone know, where he got his shades?

  • Carolina I used to dream of Carolina Till I moved to Tennessee... Made all my moves when I was younger Now I am sitting on the porch By a road that calls to me Listening to the thunder of a fast approaching storm Letting memories drag me under While the bottle keeps me warm... M.S. Morrison
  • HE IS SOOO AWESOME HE IS REALL UNLIKE UHHHH MILEY CYRUSSS BECAUSE SHE SUCKK LOL... MY MOM LOVES HIM!! HIS VOICE ROCKS...SO SOULFUL.....

  • @CHLO31313 that was eloquently stated

  • between the harmonica holder and the spaceman glasses he looks like an alien, but this is still awesome

  • The fact that Ryan Adams is unforgivably fucked up in this video is almost entirely ignorable because of how fucking beautiful this track is... Three cheers for opiates.

  • the amount of soul Ryan puts into his music is amazing, and almost mind blowing, one of the great artists of a generation.

  • this guy is not on heroin at all...

  • @jfyffe

    actually he doesn't look to be nodding off to me so I think he's fine. how many addicts do you know that bust out singing, remembering all lyrics, strapping on their harmonica thingy and playing it, and guitar playing well, and all while effed up? jeebus. he's just wearing glasses and doesn't brush his hair.

  • @ jfyffe

    COBAIN!  lmfao

  • @pkgordon I just don't believe it, I really don't. Ambition and heroin... ability to stay awake and heroin...hmmm no, not mixing to me.

  • @ellencroteau

    it reaally depends on what hes doing and how much haha

    he looks haft asleep anyways haha = P

  • Doesn't this man inspire you to take your guitar and sing with all the feelig you can?

    Ryan definitely has soul when singing and playing.

  • I can't help but listen to this and feel such an emotional stir. One of the most beautifully written and performed songs I have heard. Seriously...

  • 63 guys thought that this would be a video of bryan adams...

  • @snifferdelil 68 people thought this was summer of sixty nine, gues what, you made a typo.. wtf losers.

  • @snifferdelil Yeah, when I tell people my favorite artist is Ryan Adams, they look at me funny and say,"Bryan Adams?" Then I get pissed and tell them just to end the conversation. No comparison, and if you think Bryan before Ryan, then I don't even wish to talk to you anymore.

  • @stan6039 i get the exact same response and feel exactly the same...i mean, THIS is talent.

  • Brilliant songwriter! 

  • yeah, i am not convinced yet

  • Ryan Adams always has the coolest glasses

  • god this song is so beautiful. i do not care if ryan adams is a douche or not. i think he's got a lot of thoughts and turbulence and issues flying around in that brain, and i know that people who are brilliant and troubled can often come off like jerks.

    i was spending money like the way it likes to rain.

  • This remind's me of my first tour i did in 04 wit my first band, Left my girl, quit my job, went to states i never saw before. Had a hell of a time, But i always in my mind missed my family. Did not hear this song until over 2 years ago. do the math, and now i "feel my lightbulb's burnin out" thank you ryan:) Great song brother hope i can meet you some day:)

  • It's music. Just because Ryan Adams may be a complete asshole, it doesn't reflect his music. This song is genuinely amazing.

  • @bravesat2 we've all been an asshole to someone huh. He is the song. Inside, He is genuinely amazing... and so god damn sad...

  • Comment removed

  • incredible...

  • @TheStoneSet this aint country bud this is good driven folk acoustic like niel young and dylan.

  • the name of this song?

  • @dezembroz  Really? ...Check the description.

  • go to all country tabs, you can find almost anything there

  • anyone know of an mp3 out there of this?

  • For the love of GOD would someone post a damn tutorial please!!!

  • @rpp8489 look at ultimate guitar, the chords are there it's not too tough to figure out. Cheers mate.
