Ryan Adams - Come Pick Me Up

Some who know me might be aware of my devotion to Ryan Adams but I have made a promise to not turn this into a RA worship site. I just wanted to share with you a classic song from one of the forefathers of y'alternative (also, see alt-country). This song is about sitting at the bar after too many whiskey shots, moaning to the girl who fucked you over but you want her back anyway. We've all been there.

Heartbreaker is a stripped down tribute to coming of age. It was Adam's first solo effort after the demise of the more angst-ridden Whiskeytown. Adams is known around NYC as being a real A-hole, but he's welcome to be an ass to me any day of the week.
