Customer Reviews

Wonderwall will always be embodied by Oasis

First, just to get this out of the way. I don't like Oasis. I think bar a few good records they have achieved over their long career, they have produced so many samey, boring, unoriginal records they can't call themselves true artists anymore. Something that has grown gradually more evident also is that they are singing songs about a lifestyle and way of living they no longer live in. Thus their new music has no passion. But for all their faults their track is still eons better than this Ryan Adams track. I'm not saying this track is bad. He has certainly tried to do something different with the song and shown his originality. But his vocal is lilting. I would disagree with the reviewer who said he sounds like he's in love, often I think he sounds bored if anything. This track doesn't share the raw, Jeff Buckley heart-on-sleeve emotion he is clearly trying to emulate. What's beautiful about the Oasis record is it's so raw. The gravelly edge to the vocal really shows the frustration and emotion. It's gritty, it's muddy, inperfect and everything the song needs. I would argue this isn't a traditional ballad in the way Adams sings it, but rather a song of anger because he can't reach her and he'll never be able to love her and it's killing him and this is shown so well through the Oasis version and so little by this slow, depressing cover.

What a cover!

Hautingly beautiful, the melodic voice of Ryan Adams contrasts brilliantly with the snarl of Liam Gallagher. Almost sounds like its a different song. As good as the original, but in such a different way.

How often can you say.......

How often can you say the cover is better than the original.Twice! This is an outstanding cover.Even Noel Gallgher thinks its beautiful and he not the most poet of northern chaps now is he,And if your wondering the other is Jeff Buckleys version of Hallelujah

Biography

Born: 05 November 1974 in Jacksonville, NC

Genre: Rock

Years Active: '90s, '00s, '10s

Mixing the heartfelt angst of a singer/songwriter with the cocky brashness of a garage rocker, Ryan Adams is at once one of the few artists to emerge from the alt-country scene to achieve mainstream commercial success and the one who most strongly refused to be defined by the genre, leaping from one spot to another stylistically while following his increasingly prolific muse. Adams was born in Jacksonville, North Carolina in 1974. While country music was a major part of his family's musical diet...
