Gillian Welch – Caleb Meyer Lyrics 16 years ago
Gillian's writing is so similar to Ryan Adams.
I'd be way happier if they were married rather than Adams and Mandy Moore.
Ugh.
Awesome song, nonetheless.

Ryan Adams – Hard Way to Fall Lyrics 16 years ago
pretty sure its a combination of what blind gunman said and what blue sky said.
he was in a relationship with this girl, became addicted to drugs, alcohol, whatever, their relationship ended, and this song is written to her new lover.
great song.

Ryan Adams – Ghost Lyrics 16 years ago
this song really touches me.
it reminds me a lot of this summer.
a guy i'd really gotten into had to move to berlin,
so we put off a relationship, because we knew it'd hurt both of us in the end.
he snuck over to my house a few nights, and my parents found out and grounded me for the rest of the summer.
so i never got to tell him goodbye before he left in august.
and i wrote him a letter before he left, and called a friend of mine, who told him to come pick it up at my house one night, and he never came, never got it.
not to mention, he got a girlfriend before he left, and is still dating her now, even though they're separated by an ocean. (i wanted you, and i lost)
and he's back in town now, but i have no way to get in touch with him, but god i'd give all my money for him to meet me here, even though he hurt me bad.
and i feel really ridiculous, because i can't have him. but i still love him.

Ryan Adams – Blue Sky Blues Lyrics 16 years ago
i just listened to this song for the first time.
and thought the exact same thing.
i have a really close friend.
and sometimes he just gets so melancholy, and he won't talk about it or let it out. and i feel like i should help him, but i don't know how. and all i wanna do is take care of him and be there for him.

Ryan Adams – Blue Sky Blues Lyrics 16 years ago
this is one of the few ryan adams songs i don't know.
and i'm about to download it.
but just without ever listening to it,
anyone think it has to do with Wilco's song/album "sky blue sky"?

Ryan Adams – Sweet Illusions Lyrics 16 years ago
anyone who doesn't have respect for Ryan Adams is an idiot.
like his music or not, you've GOT to say, he's a lyrical genius.
i adore this song.
probably the best "i am heartbroken and i totally give up" song ever.

Ryan Adams – Cobwebs Lyrics 16 years ago
"will you confuse my love for the cobwebs?"
i love that line.
he's worried she'll see his love as unimportant and worthless, and brush it away, like a cobweb.

Vampire Weekend – Ottoman Lyrics 16 years ago
it sounds to me like this song is about an arranged marriage.
he wants this marriage to help his family, because the girl is from an upper class family, ie the elegant clothes.
obviously he feels awkward, and sweats like a teenager.
"they laid it out for you" makes me feel like neither the man nor woman REALLY want it to happen.
and then afterwards, "all of the cards and all of the time it took, soon it's all lines of red in a leather book" he doesn't feel like the extravagant wedding was worth it
