Adams, Ryan - Oh My Sweet Carolina Lyrics

There’s only a small handful of living musicians worth a goddamn, and he’s fucking tops. Praying for someone to rip out Mandy Moore’s heart and eat it and in front of her

You know he's good. When u read how much of a dick he is & wanna hate his music but with gritted teeth, love the shit out of his stuff. Damn.

I'm from the year 2019, did all Ryan Adams fans die?

Unbelievable what’s happened to him. I forever love RA

We are right here with you, 3 weeks from 2020

alright, thought I was the only one left

He and Jason isbell are lyrical genius’

Don't forget about Van Morrison, too.

82 dislikes?? YOU GUYS HAVE NO HEART!!!

@MLIN20 Did you really monetize this shit? You're a jackass...surprised they haven't come after ya yet.

he fucked up!

3 words in and I cry for you 💔 heart is broken... My wife you were supposed to be and it was our destiny... It was... If only you could speak to me without anger in your heart or whatever it is that's ripping you apart... I know we are one and that will do me... If not this life... The next... Or another dimension 💕 we were together before I know we were <3<3<3 now I understand what 333 means X we were together more than once... I know it... The fault in my stars pet... I was always damaged... But my heart follows yours... And it will keep following until its my time... So if not this life and if you won't let it happen when it's my time I'll smile knowing I'll see you again without hurt pain confusion and anything that got in the way ❤️❤️ big hearts and hugs heading to my wife... We were married before and I know it... Joe came to me in a dream but that's for me to keep xxx you wouldn't believe me anyway but he did and I love him and I'll see him before you xxxxxx

Anyone else feel lonely? Like they aren't really important to anybody

is this Pat Smears Guitar from the Nirvana Unplugged Session?

many many nights i listened to this with my partner and now its only pain 💔💔

Joe knows I love you... He knows ❤️❤️ I loved singing this to you... I woke to the harmonica playing after dreaming of you... I didn't think you would write on this but you did 💕 my body is here but my soul is with you X my only true love and I don't care what anyone thinks... I LOVE YOU... I just dreamt of you me bon and the boys and you were making pancakes above all things xxxxxx don't ask coz I don't know... I do know who has the key to the true me though and I'd fall out with everyone just to show you it was and will be always me and you 🤴👸 King and my Killeen... I love you doll I love you... I'd write it a million times but I'm seeing you in a few hours xxx I can't sleep coz I'm excited to see our princess... I'm confused about what way your going to be with me... And this court over you... Again... I'm going through more than a mill and still telling you how much I love you so... ❤️❤️ I really do love you... Even if you don't I do 💑

❤️❤️ used love singing this to my best friend xxxxxx now I can't even listen to it 😢

Whatever happened to that FBI investigation? As far as I’m concerned, his career was destroyed because some talentless hacks said he was mean to them. Unreal

Just heard a guy playing this on piano and singing it in Keswick, Lakes District UK. I was gobsmacked! What a beautiful song. Thought is James Taylor. Wish I’d gotten guys name.

This is a lame song

Used to live in ohio now in nc this songs describes the Carolinas to a tee

What a creep

I first heard this song from Zac Brown Band.

Why is there not over a million views on this? Damn, it's like those words just pull the tears out of my soul.

truly an excellent musician

Ryan can be bit of an ass and surely "mercurial" but he is one helluva song writer and performer---wonderful, special and beautiful music.....

And I still love you xxx

Neil and Janis look like they are sleepwalking.

the same key and they go well together at the same time....:) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q3gnxO8bUxQ

awesome!

Awesome ! Beautiful song and Ryan sing so well !

How good is this WOW

Ryan adams and laura marlin was the best ever done with this song

It’s pretty clear to both Neil and Janis that they couldn’t carry Adams home in a bucket. If you catch my drift.

Never tire of this song. He's the most prolific talented guy out there now.

I make some sad quiet songs and some short loud songs
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BS2-_p1_RhE

I love playing and singing this song. Ryan Adams is truly amazing. Love, LOVE his music!!! Apparently 47 people are tone deaf 🤣🤣🤣

I think it's beautiful brother.

I tried to to do a cover - Feel free to check it ;) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7BGuys-OxEs&feature=youtu.be

This song should go down in history.

this one hits you right in the chest. so many have redone this song, finally found the original. just awsome.

Break my fucking heart why don't ya! Absolutely breathtaking songwriting...

At 1:51, Neil Finn goes for a C-chord, behind the capo - and instantly hates himself... Doh...

I hate it when stuff like that happens - especially when it's me....

Good eye lol

Loll, you can see his lips trembling in frustration.

what other artist had a red/white/blue guitar?

pat smear...nirvana unplugged

Willie Nelson

my sweatheart

Absolutely brilliant and heartbreaking.

This song is so touching.

beautiful - thanks for sharing - also the sound is great

great staff

Wow! What a beautiful performance!

I love u baby doll xxx

sweet song My friend :)

I liked him more when he wrote more rockin stuff like cuts like a knife.

I think that was Bryan Adams..?

I know. It's an old joke. (: He does cover Bryan pretty well though. I would love to hear him cover Danny's song by Kenny Loggins.

What happened to the version with Laura Marling?

I want to buy it if available.

albert276 I can't find it anywhere either:(

Still looking...

http://m2.yinyuetai.com/video.html?id=311419

Have the song on an album.. Nothing like a live performance. Thx for sharing.

wow. this is amazing.

My mother loves Janis Ian and I love Ryan Adams. Makes me feel prettay prettay good they're on stage together.

of the 492,949 views, I can account for at least 300 of these views. Hands down the best musician of the past 15 years.

This great version here is 99%.

John Prebul posted the link to the 100%-version with gorgeous Laura Marling at abbey road studios = Perfect duet + sound + emotions. Wow!!!
It´s not on YT. Ryan is simply fantastic. I really love this song so much!

#########################################################################################

yes, you´re welcome - and is this version not able so save the whole world???

+DLl M
This version has never disappeared from You Tube since I posted it.

+MLIN20 DLI M means the vimeo link that notwister1 posted

+BillyKone
OK. It wasn't clear.

Hey I know that guy!

Me encanta

Bryan in ur ass Lol

When I read 'Janis Ian' I immediatly thought of Lizzy Caplan's character...

This song is like a woman i keep going back to time and time again....we part company for a year or two...off i go and date and/or live with other chicks...then i break up somewhere down the line...and walking on the boardwalk of a town...THERE SHE IS ONCE MORE...standing in front of me...and i fall to my feet, in tears because i'm head over heels once again....with SWEET CAROLINA....

....and her arms open up, as she picks me from off that boardwalk, dusts me off and readies me for heartbreak once again.....but i still love her....ALWAYS!!!!

Whenever i hear this song...I'M DONE.........this dude is a MASTER...this song is a MASTERPIECE...rock on Ryan.

Here's one right back atcha Mr Adams...you taught me feeling...i penned the words to JASMINE LAMPORT'S first three songs.....all whilst listening to this song.....BLESS YOU RYAN ADAMS....Jasmine's selling well..and i, too, am a songwriter now...touching other folk in the same way as you touched me...IT ALL GOES AROUND!!!

Sonic Foxx.

Lucky for me i've never laughed inappropriately at a funeral or jetted off to the other side of the world, just because....i have great moods(extremely rarely crap moods), no record of incomplete tasks..have run two businesses(1st..3.a.m starts..who needs that!!...2nd..greedy bankers..recession)..SONIC FOXX MUSIC...3rd Business(in 25 years)..songs selling/streaming, am not irritable, never had trouble at work, don't drink or take drugs,(folk around me have died regularly due to this one...I LET OFF STEAM BY HITTING A4 pieces of paper with lyrics), erratic behaviour(who doesn't...HUMAN TRAIT..we're not robots), sleep problems(living next to a main road helps that one),flight of ideas(sure helps with songwriting), RAPID SPEECH(only when i write lyrics...or list stuff for shopping after my WIFE asks me if i "need anything")....and when it comes to my sexuality....Zzzzzzzz!!!!....boring, boring, BORING....it's barely ever featured on my radar...AT ALL....ask my WIFE....


......erm...thanks for the ad though!!

P.S. I have met many folk with Bi-polar, schizophrenia, mental issues, .....THEY WERE ALL CREATIVE(vast majority had hearts in the right place)....you do the math...and google Ralph Murphy who will tell you all about the best creatives...worth a look.

lighten up man . all good 

We're cool.

In all fairness though...I NEARLY JUMPED ON A RANDOM PLANE...and flew to America for one reason and one reason only. To hook up with and surprise an American dude i met on a writers forum...his name..BRION RIBORN...totally undiscovered talent...gifted, a poet, a songwriter and a superb human being in every aspect....AMERICA and the rest of the world will catch up one fine day...i actually wrote with him(an honour..trust me...he was SMASHING any opposition on that songwriter's forum)...a demo flew across the pond to England...and POW!!!...the best song i've ever co-written thus far.

I once saw a youtube video of his where Brion was playing to a few folk in a bar(KITTY KIERNANS in NEW YORK...i think he still has a residency there)...you can hear some random guy speaking gently in the background...suddenly this comment comes from his mouth..."HE'S KINDA LIKE, JOHN MAYER..he's REALLY good"....nuff said...JOE PUBLIC knew!!!

IS THIS AN AD FOR BRION RIBORN??.....DAMNED RIGHT IT IS!!

We'd spot this guy in a heartbeat in England...and he'd be signed!!...on the spot.

LOST IN AMERICA i guess...BIG COUNTRY.

SONIC FOXX MUSIC...(D.N.A... Developing New Artists) very well put

this is a beautiful song and performance, thanks for posting.

Ryan sounds better on this live version than the recording. The mark of a truly talented musician/singer, he never disappoints.

Saw Mr.Adams performed this song at Coachella. Made me miss the South so much as well as my family. Almost made me cry in front of all those people. What a great song.

+aceyjh I hearya. Thus, Im headed to NC on xmas day. Excited!

Merry xmas! I'm going to VA tonight. Right above you :)

@aceyjh AWWW, I'll wave as I pass thru on my train ride!!

Apparently he was showing some of his moodier tendencies that night, but hey, who cares? It goes down as one of his best sets -- ever.

I miss Kentucky. And I miss my family. This line; of all his lines, is the one that leaves me heartbroken.

zachary hensley me too!

Oh my god yes----that is so true about that line for me as well....rips right into your heart and soul....amazing how just a few words in so many songs can do that....

As a Kentuckian currently living in Charleston...yeah that line gets me!

About North Carolina though my home

Could anyone tell me why I can't find the version of Laura Marling singing this with him, anymore? It was my favorite version and now it's gone.

@MichelleJeananne You mean this? https://vimeo.com/36294252 It is amazing.

+MichelleJeananne
you are right. This version with gorgeous Laura Marling is 100%. Perfect duet + sound + emotions. Wow!!!
Ryan is simply fantastic. I really love this song too!

#######################################################################

His interpretation is amazing.  I did cry, not sure why, but this song is amazing!

Best be careful, and line up a box of tissues with this song then.
Can a singer possibly write a song with 17 lyrics only and find the power to get a message over??


You decide...i think this artist has nailed it in one...read the first comment on her youtube vid...sums it up completely.


"WHY?" by JASMINE LAMPORT....................."STRONG" and "BREATHE"(Sonic Foxx Version) are worth some time!!

phus2001 I cry too!

It`s amazing how something so simple can be so beautiful.

WHY? by JASMINE LAMPORT....something simple...and beautiful.




....and now released on i-tunes, Amazon, etc

It's "Bryan" Adams not Ryan

+WarthDader74
I didn't know it was a joke, I just thought you were pretty daft - thanks for enlightening me! ;-.)

@Leif Vejby You're welcome sir 

+WarthDader74 One of the funniest comments I've read tonight

@Dylan Roberts Thank you for that, sir

 

silly man. it Ryan "Bob dylan of the new millennium "adams

Amo esta canción

that's Buck Owen's guitar, from HeeHaw

I cry every single time.

fuckin pussy

Troubled with big talent  I luv it

I think this is probably my favorite favorite favorite song ever.  I heard it first sung by Elton John in concert when he came to SC and I had to find out more about this song.  I absolutely love this song who ever sings it :-)

I encourage you to listen to Ron Sexsmith if you like this.

Ron sexsmith is seriously dull in comparison to ryan adams. The deep dark woods are really fantastic musicians and another one of my favorite bands that give it all to the song and for the song.

The keys of the harmonica is Eb.

harmonica keys please 

+MeB IveR G, F#, A, C, Em, E, W, F5, C5, sweet daddy Macintosh, bubblegum shitwhip.

great voice

This guy is one of the biggest reason I picked up a guitar

He is fantastic!

I really wish you never picked up the guitar.

Yea man David Gray! anything that has a should to it you know?

@mozzainoz Hell yea man david gray! anything that has that soul feel ya know?

It's why I sold mine

Like if u like!

I miss Kentucky and I miss my family.

I was googling this looking for other people who miss home and I found this song. I never heard Ryan Adams before, but I am a fan now.

@SpookyLizzy thats nice!

True Artist. Thank you Dave...

Apologies. I was viewing multiple performances and got them crossed. This is clearly not a Dave Letterman show performance.  Thanks for posting this. It is exceptional.

@DEACON006
It was performed in the UK and broadcast by the BBC.  One of the reasons I posted it was so people in the USA and elsewhere, who otherwise wouldn't have access, could see it. Just as I am grateful for people who post performances from David Letterman and other shows which I couldn't otherwise see.  This is what is so good about You Tube.

Good indeed.

@MLIN20 David is actually Ryan Adams' real first name, so he was righter than he knew, clearly.

Get a life Joe ;)

Nailed it!

Saturday Sun SEAGULL for you brother..share..then JASMINE LAMPORT'S "BREATHE"....enjoy both.

Hthis is fantastic but i do prefer zac beown band cover when thet did it live

One of the most hauntingly beautiful songs I've ever heard.

People say there is no good music anymore. This is as good as any Simon and Garfunkel, Neil Young etc. Just sayin folks, don't be so hung up on the past you become blind to the present.

You are just a ridiculous person

I agree- anyone who can help to write it down? Working on it by myself too- but not sure it`s right. Eb harmonica.

DONT FEED THE DOUCHETROLLS!!!!

You suck, you alt douchebag.

what a wanker

peter marshall no

this guy SUCKS! and you a pus if you like him

TheWhatthefuck12 I know this was 4 years ago but if you knew real music and how it sounded you would think this sucked Ryan Adams is a talented singer and he puts an emotional and beautiful spin to this song and no one is a puss for listening to this if you listen to this that means you have great taste in music

*wouldnt

something so beautiful would never be formed in the pits of hell lmao

right you are

Sometimes i get up in the morning, stretch a little and wonder what the world will bring me to make me desire breathing on this planet....there are three songs which do it to me every time....Ryan Adams(Sweet Carolina), Saturday Sun(Seagull) and ......Ray Lamontagne(Burn).....enough said....actually there are four...MESSIAH BY HELENA SOFTLEY.....beeeeeautiful!!!!!

The brand is Harmony and the model is a Buck Owens American...I believe.

ITS A HELL-SPAWN NIGHTMARE. FORGED IN THE BOWELS OF HELL FROM THE BONES OF FORNICATORS AND THE SINEWS OF THIEVES AND GLUTTONS!

Goddamn.

Whats the name of the guitar he uses here?

3:00 is where the chill bumps set in lol

I have lived in Texas for 20 years but I am originally from North Carolina and I just stumbled on this song. Southern girls and southern men are so different form Texans..I miss the mannerism and gentleness of the southern way. If Texans want to say they know how to treat a woman...let them go to Carolina and ge some lessons..Texas girls could use a few lessons themselves;))

victoria b. I want you out of Texas by tomorrow.

Mistuhman52 I laughed lol, spit up my coffee hahaha that was well played

Beautiful !
