Ryan Adams reveals "Do You Still Love Me?", the lead single from new album Prisoner
Ryan Adams is back with "Do You Still Love Me?", the anthemic first taste of 16th studio record Prisoner.
UPDATE 30/1: Adams has shared the video for "Do You Still Love Me?".
The prolific singer/songwriter is following up last year's album of Taylor Swift covers, his live album from Carnegie Hall, and a bunch of 7" singles. Prisoner is Adams' first original studio record since 2014's self-titled gem.
Back in August Adams told Entertainment Weekly that he'd written "quite literally 80" songs for the LP, which he them shaved down to just a dozen with producer Don Was (Bob Dylan, Iggy Pop).
Adams expands upon the themes and ideas in an interview with The Japan Times: "I started writing this record while I was going through a very public divorce, which is a humiliating and just a fucking horrible thing to go through no matter who you are... to be me and to go through that the way that I did was destructive on a level that I can’t explain. So a lot of extra work went into keeping my chin up and remembering what I did and what I loved about who I was."
