  • The upside down flag is disappointing?  It's his fuckin' album, his artwork and his opinion. Go and write something other than a buttoned-down post and then comment. Idiot.

  • I admit, I am not a big Ryan Adams fan but this song caught my ear because I am obcessed with Sylvia Plath. I love how he portrays her differently than you will read about her in any book. Gorgeaus song.

  • There are some real twits around. The album speaks lovingly about the USA, go listen to Ryan Adams New York, New York. The upside down flag is a symbol of national distress. As for Sylvia Plath, aennekin83 nailed it, Also he is using her as the basis of his 'perfect woman', a creative spirit who doesn't do normal/banal things that ordinary people do. A woman like Sylvia but not exactly Sylvia and someone he could take care of and who take care of him.

  • @iclandgirl Actually, I'm pretty sure he is a huge fan of Sylvia Plath and has been since a very young age. It's an interpretation and partially metaphor for falling in love with a destructive personality because genius and sane don't always go together. Someone who loves literature should understand the concept of not taking everything at face value.

  • @iclandgirl --If you knew anything about "this guy," you wouldn't have written this.

  • "Would I salute the American flag? No. But maybe if you soaked it in heroin I'd suck it." - William Burroughs

  • This guy knows nothing of Sylvia Plath. Just wanted to make a song, that would make people want to buy an album- that had a song called Sylvia Plath on it. stupid.

  • eh

  • CD come out SEPTEMBER 25 2001 you freaking retards. FLAG UPSIDE DOWN = EXTREME NATIONAL DISTRESS. go hate somewhere else. oh, and get a f**cking CLUE.
