    Everything I do, I do it while trying to block his existence from my mind.

    Not a patch on Ryan Adams.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,552 ✭✭✭theoneeyedman


    Would take him or leave him until I saw him do acoustic show in castlebar last year :serious show, back catalog and talent!

    ' Run to you' is a decent enough song


  • Registered Users Posts: 33,691 ✭✭✭✭NIMAN


    I personally like him and his music, but I am of a certain age.

    Funny how guys like him are vilified as being 'music from the past' yet he appeared on XFactor a few weeks back.

    I have seen him live a few times, and he can sing well and is a great entertainer. If you don't like him, then thats fair enough.

    Run To You is a great song. A great song amongst a mountain of cheese.

    he's not that bad, c'mon..

    rock for people who dont like rock or music in general

    clean cut , bland , NAFF in the extreme

    also , one thing ive always noticed is that people who like bryan adams , nearly always like bon jovi aswell , another crowd who are square as canada

    He's not bad, at least he could write a song and sing it himself, and he seems like a good egg. I've seen him play live and I thought he was very good.

    I don't think it's ever going to be "cool" to be a Bryan Adams fan, but he can certainly write a song.

    Cheese or not, the back catalgoue is phenomenal and the duet with pav..for a guy who can't speak italian. damn.

    Another Canadian to bash along with Nickelback. Was decent then became dire.

    Worked at the gig in Pearse Stadium in Galway a few Summers back. Met the guy and have to say he was a complete gentleman and very courteous to the crew. He was down to earth and didn't come across egotistical at all! Unlike many other famous musicians and bands I could mention!

    Not my first preference of music but he is a very good entertainer and does a good live act. Respect!

    some people like thier rock stars to be egotistical assholes

    Reckless was a great album but the rest of his work is mediocre at best.

    That's very true irishbob! But more often then not the roadie crews have even more ego!! What's with them I don't know? Maybe they really desire to be on stage but from many I've worked with they are absolute arseholes! :eek:

    I always had a soft spot for an album of his called On A Day Like Today, there are some really nice tunes on that album.
