It’s a gorgeous song and knowing what it’s actually about adds a whole new dimension to it for me.

Right there with you. I had no idea.
I want to adore Steve Coogan but he is one of those who the older he gets, the younger his partners get. I get being “young at heart” or whatever but when you’re 53 and your girlfriend is 27 I’m going to side-eye you.
Keep an eye on Steve Coogan then. She’s got a rage boner for that guy.
“Emotional motion sickness” may be the most accurate description of the traumatic aftermath of narcisstistic abuse that I’ve ever come across.
You know, with this comment, and another comment she made about Harvey Weinstein in the mid 90s, I say we should just start asking Courtney Love about all sorts of famous dudes, and see what she says.
Right? Mandy Moore seems like such a genuinely good person, and Ryan Adams is... Ryan Adams.
I love that Phoebe Bridgers song. Had no idea it was about him. I’m glad she is still making music.
This is kinda roundabout but...years ago while travelling as an assistant and dresser to an older established star I unpacked her into the best suite of an elegant old hotel in Portland Oregon. It was gorgeous, full of books and art, lovely and comfortable in every possible way. I leafed through the guestbook other…

This explains so much to me! I am not a deep follower of pop music but paid enough attention to notice that Mandy Moore seemed to drop off the music scene. Now I know why. I appreciate that she stepped forward and is willing to put herself out there; she has a great role and has done so much with her acting...she…
Ha! You’re right. They are nothing alike but for some reason I get Jack White, Jack Black and Black Francis/Frank Black confused.
Jack White, but yeah I hope so.
“Christ ugh igh ugh Mandy Moore ick. The thought of her sticking her tongue down that filthy hatch. I might as well go watch Hostel. Smelly ass, ick. I LOATHE that guy.”
She also married Jack Black and suffered similar crap from him. I hope she’s steering clear of asshole men now.
Your guess is as good as mine, man. Probably something about how he’s unhappy and emotional or some bullshit.
I said this yesterday, but I don’t think I could count on two hands the number of young female artists that Adams has been closely tied to either professionally or personally, only for all ties to be abruptly severed. (Sometimes their careers disappeared afterward, too.) If even a fraction of those women had similar…
I knew Moore and he wouldn’t work out.
Karen Elson had also posted something (since deleted?) about Adams. She really didn’t want to get into specifics but it sounded really bad.
I always had a feeling that Ryan Adams was a scumbag and while this is awful, it doesn’t surprise me. It felt really cathartic to delete everyone of his songs from my music library today.
