Ryan Adams - Lucky Now - Live On Letterman

[@jdynorock]

Ryan is I believe and as time will show, one of the greatest writers/performers of our time.

[@reaganmiller453]

jdynorock, it's already showing but you're right, he's continuing to get better. Love his new album (and his old stuff too). Such a variety.

[@bastar2noastarz]

If he'd been around in the seventies hed be called a legend by now!!!

[@JohnDoe-yz9cn]

You got that right

[@Geotubest]

Great comment. Well said.

[@stickypool]

Greatest songwriter of the 21st century. Prolific in his output and delivers quality each and every time.

[@williammurath9740]

I have forgotten about this gem. Came out right when my ex wife went off the deep end whatever..... My middle kid who is playing guitar now, asked me my fave Ryan tunes. I rattled off my top 10 quick. However this was not in there. My mind was pretty rattled back then. So this song showed up in my suggestions just a bit ago. Go figure.... Serendipity. In 3 minutes it will be 10 years to the day of 9/10/11. The beauty is insane. Thanks Ryan and thanks to Phil turning me onto you in 2005. This is the only tune I ever used a capo on. I am not a fan of a cheater.. Perfection

[@user-cx8wn8ev9q]

Amen brother,...i get that totally 👍

[@Geotubest]

Wait... You think using a capo is cheating??

[@williammurath9740]

A "Cheater" is what Jerry Garcia referred to it as on the album Bear's Choice when Bob Weir is going to put his capo on. Still the only song I ever used a capo on

[@FoxPlaysBlues]

This deserves millions more views than it's had. Simply wonderful!

this man is a genius

[@loobyloo1955]

Wow second song I had to look up after watching “We are 40” which BTW pretty cute movie for a lazy Sunday. Love love this song.

[@alistaircochran]

Do you mean This is 40?

[@keithweyuker3136]

I love this song, as well as many of Ryan Adams songs. They are so visceral, and honest. I very much relate to his lyrics.

[@prinzeraaj]

what a beautiful song...very much relates to me...guys just wanna tell u Never never be harsh or rude to your girl ever...especially when she's going away from u..if u take her for granted and assume she'll come back...u r mistaken...I wish everyone to have a wonderful life with their soulmates unlike me.....God bless u all :)

[@tonyspoetry]

[@annalindholm4031]

This song changed mynlife to the bettet❤️

[@pls2554]

This gem closed out This Is Forty.

[@christinetovey577]

That movie brought me here

[@jaybowcott]

great performance of a great song. ROCK AND ROLL! soft rock and roll.. even better.

[@MouseTrapNRH]

Im just now discovering this guy and this song from the movie about 40

[@JoeyLevenson]

Why the hell isnt Ryan revered as an American icon?!?!

[@Geotubest]

Sadly, there's some controversy around him. Still, there's no taking away his talent as a singer/performer/songwriter/artist.

[@ericcieslik6061]

hi!

[@reaganmiller453]

You can hear a pin drop.

[@TheEllsworth8]

Reagan Miller Chills.

[@reaganmiller453]

I know. So excellent.

[@jfmc2581]

Reagan Miller ,Yes!! No drunk idiots screaming over the music. I love live music but half the time it's ruined by stupid screaching idiots . Oh yeah or even worse those IDIOTS who start a feable slow rhythm-less clap along like where all sitting on the rug in kindergarten!! Sign the petition this must stop... Sorry about the rant.

[@Geotubest]

You are so right. If you've heard ¨If I am a Stranger¨ on Letterman you'll find the same thing...absolute silence in between lyrics and strums. I've always been amazed by the way just a singer and a guitar can captivate an audience like that. It's spiritual.

[@danielmatta4599]

definitely needs a haircut

[@hockman221]

He's got some great songs no doubt, but he's so prolific and feels like he has to record everything he spits out. I find it frustrating cause the wheat is wonderful but there is a lot of chaff.

[@BlindTom61]

His "chaff" as you put it is a lot better than most folk's wheat...

[@duanewestcot739]

thats some damn good chaff. In fact best chaff ever. I mean there is chaff and there is chaff. For example, ever listen to the shit that goes for Rock today? No? Thats chaff, real shity chaff. Its angry chaff. tough guy death chaff. Then there is the over produced country Nashville republican wrangler ball crushing jean chaff. schlock.. And the there is bria. ooos Ryan Adams. The second coming of Neil Young. And what you called chaff is the writings of two people miles above the everybody else. Dont like their chaff. Ok, the gjve it to me

[@roblatimer4375]

@@duanewestcot739 ask Elvis Costello about chaff. Ryan's good, but not Elvis good. Then again, that's my opinion, and music, as art, is not about opinion.
