Ryan Adams - "Two"

Ryan Adams is a prolific songwriter and has released about twelve albums since his band 'Whiskeytown' broke up and he went solo in 2000. A couple of them were double albums as well and he has also released albums under pseudonyms. "Two" was a single from his "Easy Tiger" album that had a more mellow and sober Ryan Adams persona in charge. The chorus of "It takes two when it used to take only one" isn't a new concept but true in too many ways in my life... coffee, beer and the list goes on. A nice country pop ballad from a more mature Adams. Remember this is the same guy that stopped a concert mid song when a cheeky audience member shouted out for "Summer of 69" (which was all too common at Ryan Adams concerts from smart-ass fans) and it had finally got the better of him. In a tirade of expletives, he insisted the lights be turned on and he found the guy, paid him a $30 refund and kicked him out... although, I can't help liking that side of Ryan Adams' unpredictability.... he was so Rock n' Roll.
