Perfect example of mult-genre talent. Perfect voice that puts the album over the top. It does what all good art should do, makes your self reflect. Through the good and the bad. The perfect stepping stone after cold roses. It makes sense.

my favorite ryan adams CD to date. Beautiful song after beautiful song.... but it does take time for it to mature in your head. Just apply a little patience.
Matt gave it a4:
Really disappointing record. After hearing "A Kiss Before I Go" live, I was excited for this record. Turns out the studio version of this track is frustratingly tame and the rest of the tracks lack creativity and heart. Cold Roses blows this album away, and this was after hearing Nights first.

Toby Keith blows.
Hingus H gave it a0:
I agree with the Toby Keith without any (ANY) talent. This record is a real stinker. P-U!!!!
Real C gave it a9:
A difficult album to listen to without lyrics before you, but after the first shaky performance, one comes to appreciate just how beautiful songs like "September" and "Dear John" can be. The upbeat songs, like "The Hardest Part", to my mind, only keep you listening through the difficult moments of this record. All in all, this record's form, style and cohesion are better than anything since Heartbreaker- although I happened to love Cold Roses.
Dan S gave it an8:
There are many beautiful tracks on this record. I don't understand why so many people are hung up on the fact that not all the songs are brilliant. I'll take all the Ryan Adams tracks I can get my hands on. Even his weakest stuff is far and above a lot of the garbage out there today. Mainstream musicians have become spoiled with their one album every couple of years. Back in the 50' s and 60's it was standard to put out a couple albums a year. It's good to see a musician with Adams work ethic for a change.
