The lyrics to this song just hit me in the feels. I would quote the entire song but that would be overkill. Run – lyrically, one of my favourite songs on the album. In the Meadow – another here for the bass, stayed for the rest of the song. My favourite lyric is, “you’re the picture, tapped to the mirror in my head.” The song is poetry in motion. He can tell a complete story within minutes of a song where some writers can’t do that within hundreds of pages in a book. It’s one of the things I like about Ryan. Poor Connection – this song is just Ryan and the guitar and once again showcases his story telling. Rain in LA – continuing with midnight smokey jazz lounge feel from the track before, the subtle bass dances beautifully with the piano while Ryan pours out his emotions through heartfelt lyrics. This is the soundtrack to Ryan’s Alex and Ellen but it’s Romeo and Juliet instead. It’s the raw emotion of the vocals and lyrics with the bass that tear at the heart. Keaton and Ellen Reed’s relationship Family Ties (yes, I am showing my damn age). I’m torn between feeling moments of midnight smokey jazz lounge act and a bit of Billy Vera & the Beaters “At this Moment” as the soundtrack to Alex P. The song is delicate, haunting, and heartbreaking.Īnything – Ryan had me at the bass in this song. This track like the Shakespeare play, does not have a happy ending. Romeo & Juliet – the title track of the album and a story told only as Ryan can tell, like that of in “Carolina Rain”. This is the one song I keep revisiting again and again. Musically, I find this song to be a beautiful upbeat tune and perhaps one of my favourites on the album. I love the string arrangement towards the end of the song.

For me, the song feels good and wholesome. I feel this song could be their soundtrack as they walk behind their kids in the evening in their suburban town. For me it invokes a feeling for a dear friend and her husband. I feel like they’re fighting for the attention of the listener instead of working together and it’s a bit distracting.ĭoylestown Girl – I feel this song is a memory. I just don’t think the music and lyrics fit together. Something Missing – musically, I like this song and lyrically, I like this song. Whatever it is, this song brings a smile to my face.

I can’t remember anything that you said…”, or the bass and drum. I can’t decide if it’s the opening beats, the way the harmonies fall around the lyrics, “spinning like a merry-go-around in my head. I Can’t Remember – there’s something Beatlesque about this song to me. The music is quiet, simple, and beautiful while Ryan’s voice holds that simple moment in a delicate balance of remembering while perhaps needing to let it go.

Just an elegant tune that captures a simple moment in life and holds it in frame for the heart and soul to relive it again. In the Blue of the Night – this song reminds me of southern summer evenings, watching the setting sun and waiting for the lightning bugs to come out. They wrap the listener in a warm soft hug.

The lyrics are full of imagery but it is the subtle bass line and drum beat that hit home for me. Dreamy, hopeful, and chock full of summer time love and summer time heart break. Rollercoaster – this song sets the moment and the mood for Romeo & Juliet. Without further ado, let’s dive into Romeo & Juliet, track by track. I find Romeo & Juliet to be full of love, hope, heartfelt memories, heartache, day dreams, and moments where the world was just perfect, as summer often seems. While I interpreted Chris to be an emotional journey of loss, love, lessons, and everything between. The album has 19 tracks, 21 for those grab it from his website, and clocks in about one hour and fifteen minutes. This is Ryan’s 20th studio album and just like I said about Chris, in plain and simple terms, it’s fucking good.

There’s a lot of room here and the stores all unwind like a hot drive in the south with the windows down – sunshine blasting everything. It’s like the tall, long slightly mysterious sister to Easy Tiger. It’s maybe the first summertime album I’ve ever made, on purpose, from to back. Ryan says this of Romeo & Juliet in an Instagram post: Just a few short weeks after releasing his double album Chris, he’s followed it up with another double album, Romeo & Juliet. Ryan Adams has been a busy man and continues to be a busy man.
