Quote

I'm sort of planting Post-It notes all over my psyche. Do not skateboard wasted. Do not buy $10,000 rugs. Be careful what you say to journalists. You don't have to stay up until 7 A.M. - tomorrow is a new day.

I want to make sure I'm with a girl that's a good kisser, and that when I wake up, I have coffee and a cigarette. That's all I really want out of life. That, and world domination.

The good thing about playing the guitar: You can take on different kinds of music. I'm always doing something different from the last thing I did because I have the shortest attention span on earth.

I've gotten to a place where I still love to play and sing, but I don't have any ego agenda left, outside of just wanting to stay in a creative place and play music. I much prefer to sing for somebody else, and to somebody else.

A lot of my songs, they're like puzzle pieces, and there's just one way to put them together. You could, if you needed to, get the scissors out and cut up things to make them work. But I don't want to do that.

There definitely isn't a structure anymore to how I get ideas. A lot of times I'll just write down a phrase, or I'll have an idea that's attached to just a few chords. Other times, it's work.

I can sort of will that stuff to happen to me if I put myself in the right headspace. Then I can actually get to a space where it won't just be one song that comes through, but a series of them.

It's hard to be bipolar and bicoastal at the same time.

Some people want to go forever, I just want to burn off hard and bright.

I'm a pretty bad troubadour. I'm more of a music fan who got away with making records.
Ryan Adams

I'm a big music fan outside of the music I make.

I use to be panicked, but know I'm curious!
Ryan Adams
Image
I think that music, or at least the kind of music that I make, benefits greatly from improvisation.
Ryan Adams
Image
Not to discount my music, but I'm always suspicious of the music that I make on some level, as to how valid it is. Or maybe not valid, but how important.

When I'm in New York, I just want to walk down the street and feel this thing, like I'm in a movie.
