It is 20 years today since this recording session. Shocking memories of that September 2001. 9/11 heroes never forgotten.
Absolutely true :( #neverforget911
Yup
*I dedicate this song to the bothers and sisters who lost their lives on 9/11 from our own shadow DEEP STATE government*
I was 18 years old when The towers fell I spent a long time in the Marines fighting to never have that happen again.
this is not representative of the facts: i have nieces and grand ones who live in downtown NYC= i wrote this just after the fact of 9/11 to announce my loyalty to them...not New York..SO..this suggested timing is simply a lie
And then the whole world would change forever.
this song/video should be an anthem for New York..it was shot on the last weekend the world seemed "normal"..after that fateful Tuesday which started out so mundane, everything changed and it will NEVER be the same. God Bless Ryan Adams for this nugget of joy right before a nightmare began and unfortunately we're still experiencing. WE WILL NEVER FORGET!
@@radchik I got your message hope you saw mine ?
@@ryanadams4795 bloody spammer and fake profile. Reported.
I was born in Manhattan St Vincent hospital...l visit New York every couple of years it's sad what Bill de Blasio and Andrew Cuomo did to that City.... please let's save New York City.....l have family still up there and they say you don't want to live here....l went there maybe Year before the pandemic had a blast.....
I subscribe and Bell 🔔 it..... Sorry took so long not on TH-cam a lot but like everyone else trying get away from Facebook..
Although that is not the sequence of events, I wrote it after 911 as a lullaby to family I have in New York
I was 15 in the fall of 2001. Back then, I was big on watching MTV and VH1 before leaving for school and I remember this video being played often in the weeks following 9/11. Unreal how it was filmed four days before that tragedy.
I'm surprised they diverted from their "reality" shows and shity hip hop playlist to even recognize someone like Ryan Adams but I guess there was money to be made.
The last music video with the World trade center.. and the real New York ☹️❤️🇺🇲
Just happened to have a meeting on 9/6, and walked through the lobby between the towers, of course thinking nothing of it at the time. Flying in that morning, and flying home that night, the towers were the first and last things you saw. Eerily, our meeting almost got moved 9/10, and one of my colleagues from the bay area, would have been on flt 93 on 9/11 to return home. There but by the grace of God any of us go.
I’ve watched this every year since 9/11, and it’s still one of the most heartbreaking and eerie videos ever. I lived in NYC in 98-99, then again from 2008-2013. I was back in NJ , commuting to NYC to attend SVA, and will never forget waking up the morning of 9/11. My friends in school were all still in downtown NYC, and I remember my friend calling me from NYC , telling me class was evacuated, and he was in the middle of 23rd st, directing traffic, as all cops were down by the Towers. My ex gf’s dad worked in the Towers, but didn’t go in that day. I was working in film as a set dresser, when I wasnt in class, and the film industry sent all the lights down to look through the rubble at night. My 2 uncles were down there for 2 nights digging through, looking for survivors. Almost 20 years later, and that fear and heartbreak feel like it was only yesterday.
I agree... I can still feel the fear, chaos and sorrow very viscerally when I think about it. Hard to convey to my kids now what a terrible day that was.
Are your uncles okay?
4 days later, our life as we knew, changed.
All By Design and Look Where They Have Us Now
@@katoness Always been that way. There's nothing new under the sun. They controlled the popes, kings, and the banks. You are the host.
You should talk to his agent
"Love won't play any games with you, anymore if you don't want 'em to"... wise words
I remember this song very well. Here was this young guy out of nowhere named Ryan Adams (not to be confused with the Canadian singer Bryan Adams) who did this song about NYC and shot his music video there just four days before the world changed forever. I remember Ryan Adams performed this song on late night shows like Conan and Letterman in the aftermath of the attacks, with both of those shows being based in New York. The attacks brought much attention to this song, but most certainly in not the way he would have wanted.
9/11 hits me on a personal level, having a connection to the tragic events of that horrible day. I live and grew up in Atlanta, but my dad traveled for work in the IT business. He lived in an apartment in New Jersey and worked in an office in Downtown Manhattan on that terrible day. He had just commuted through the World Trade Center a mere two hours before the towers were hit. In fact, my mother and I just had went up to NYC with him the 4th of July holiday and went to the top of the WTC just two months prior to that tragic day. Hell, for all we knew, something could have happened then. I just remember being a kid in the eighth grade and watching the horrors of what happened in New York that day on the TV, but even a phone call to the school to let me know that my dad was OK, the images of the towers falling nonetheless still made me sick as it would anyone.
Just like Ryan Adams said in this song, "Hell, I still love you New York." While NYC may not be the capital of the United States, us Americans see it as the "first city" of the United States, being the largest city and a primary source of our collective culture and identity. It's where many of us Americans had great-great-grandparents who passed through Ellis island as immigrants. It's where George Washington was sworn in as the first President of the United States just blocks away from the future location of the World Trade Center in New York City in Trinity Church.
While I'm still on the subject, I remember purchasing a pennant of the World Trade Center at the gift shop at the observation deck of the old Twin Towers that I still have on my wall 24 years later. It still kind of spooks me how many of those same identical pennants were probably still at the gift shop's top floor when the towers fell, being just two months later. But, I still have it up on my wall as a point of reverence. Never forget.
"Filmed just four days before the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on New York. This song brought alt-country performer Ryan Adams into the top 20 of adult top 40 radio and earned him a Grammy Award nomination for Best Male Rock Vocal."
Miss you, twins. I would have rebuit you both, as you were.
100%. I still can't rationalize how we didn't just rebuild those fucking towers the way they had been.
They should have been rebuilt even taller. Tallest buildings in the world. Both of them.
I visited the monument a few years ago, instead they have two large deep shafts made out of marble matching the locations of each tower. I thought it looked nice.
They were ugly buildings. The only tragedy were the people who died in them.
its hard even thoe i was born 2003 and couldn't see them i love the way the twin towers looked finished building in the early 70s they were only 29 years during the attacks its a shame and i look at the towers in this vid and shed a tear just thinking only if they were rebuilt just how they were i just love the design of them and we all miss them ;( never forget.
He performed this on SNL not long after 9/11 and I straight ugly cried.
I had the first date with the love of my life on September 7, 2001. We met in Union Square, walked around the village, ended up on St. Marks (she grew up on Delancey). Four days later...yeah. Anyway, we bonded over music in a very deep way, and this song was one of the very first new things we both liked; I remember us watching him do it on SNL around then.
Some years later it dawned on me that the Twin Towers were behind him throughout the video. I wondered if they must have shot it right before 9/11. Then I noticed the cards, which they obviously added afterward the fact. Note the date. He was clearly filming all day that day, into the evening, and so was apparently mere streets away from us as we were first meeting. Kinda funny, or something.
I used to live in New York, and I was happy (I left it almost 6 months ago) 😄, but the destiny decided that I needed to move to Paris, I arrived 1 week ago, and when I was walking with the Eiffel Tower behind me, this song came, and I realized how much I miss NYC :( !!! 🥹
As a native New Yorker, this video breaks my heart. May this new year bring peace to all those suffering around the world, and may it bring tolerance to those who have so much hatred in their hearts here in the U.S.
its Now 2022
@@whiteskystudios3261 No it's not
Jeffers’s: What in fucks’ name are you supposed to be mouthing ?
You have no clue, isn’t that right ?
Bless you.
As a New Yorker who was 11 when the towers fell, this makes me miss the city I was born in, but never got the chance to know.
who's watching in April 2024
The Saxophone solo at the end really nods to the whole New York Jazz scene in an otherwise rock/pop song, love its deliberate inclusion.
Much appreciated
Nothing inherent in this song was intended for jazz : that’s all after the fact
lol. Imagine thinking this milquetoast ass song has anything to do with bebop and the history of black jazz in NYC. What you just said was insane and fairly insulting.
@@wlgj1341maybe read up on the intentional fallacy
crazy how a song made before a city got its heart ripped out became a song representing its spirit and back when it was normal
I grew up with NYC being tough cynical funny it was so sad seeing it be so vulnerable and scared. Im Canadian but everyday after 9/11 people checked to see hows New York City is it ok Hows the weather there everyone was so protective of it .
I always revisit this song/video. Despite what flaws you may see in our country, you have sit back and watch a brief clip of how free we once were. Over two thousand people got up two days after this was shot, some planning birthday parties, others getting excited for a first date or celebrating milestone anniversaries….all wiped out by 19 evil people who took a perverse interpretation of a religion to kill innocent people. Here we are 20 years later and unfortunately our world has yet to recover…I’m not optimistic that it ever will.
Remembering 9/11/2001 20 years later,We Will Never Forget.
We're still here Ryan and we still love you......
It's so eerie seeing those towers and knowing what happens only 4 days later...
Back in pre everything available online at a click / tap days, this video was the first footage I saw of pre 9/11 WTC (and knew what I was seeing). Iirc the video was witheld for a while. The dedication at the end still gets me.
“Pre-Everything”?
Do you mean BEFORE the pandemic?
No, I think this was after The Pandemic.
This probably in 2021 or 2022.
@@wildmercuryfilms I should have added I meant at the time of 9/11. I find your take on my post a little strange.
Life is short! Live and give.
As a boy who sat in Elementary school, every anniversary, I describe that day. Absolutely beautiful. A monument of New York in my eyes.
All the families to the lost I wish you a blessed day and love
I come back to this every year 😢
It’s that time of year again 😥
Are you here today? 🙂
Thinking of America on this day
🇮🇪🇺🇸
Nicky Styles yes
To us Irish,America is still the land of hopes and dreams,we will always love our American cousins
Wow
Right back atcha', Ireland!
Even after we crapped out a conald T rump?
@@robertbarker309 We're going to let that one go.....😉😉👍👍
We love the Irish too.
Well, I shuffled through the city on the 4th of July
I had a firecracker waiting to blow
Breakin' like a robber who was makin' his way
To the cities of Mexico
Lived in an apartment out on Avenue A
I had a tar-hut on the corner of 10th
Had myself a lover who was finer than gold
But I've been broken up and busted up since
And love don't play any games with me
Anymore like she did before
The world won't wait, so I better shake
That thing right out there through the door
Hell, I still love you, New York
Found myself a picture that would fit in the folds
Of my wallet and it stayed pretty good
Still amazed I didn't lose it on the roof of the place
When I was drunk and I was thinking of you
Every day the children they were singing their tune
Out on the streets and you could hear from inside
Used to take the subway up to Houston and 3rd
I would wait for you and I'd try to hide
And love won't play any games with you
Anymore if you don't want 'em to
The world won't wait and I watched you shake
But honey, I don't blame you
Hell, I still love you, New York
Hell, I still love you, New York
New York
I remember Christmas in the blistering cold
In a church on the upper west side
Babe, I stood their singing, I was holding your arm
You were holding my trust like a child
Found a lot of trouble out on Avenue B
But I tried to keep the overhead low
Farewell to the city and the love of my life
At least we left before we had to go
And love won't play any games with you
Anymore if you want 'em to
So we better shake this old thing out the door
I'll always be thinkin' of you
I'll always love you though New York
I'll always love you though New York, New York, New York
Video still gives me chills in both a beautiful and eerie way, something about the screen mentioning this was filmed the weekend before 9/11 and then cutting to this tribute song with the towers front and center is just very kinetically powerful
This was written in response to 9/11 events and because I have family in NYC… not prior to
@@wlgj1341 I'm not sure I understand what you mean? The video says it was filmed Sept 7, 2001 at the beginning and has the towers clear in the background.
@@dothebartman9156 are you reading that from ‘flash cards’..?…let’s see, nah, that would require such genius technology to simply denote a specific date..and clearly you have reason to be confused…FUCKING DOH !!
SEE IFVYOU CAN GLOM ONTO A REAL WORLD PERSPECTIVE:?…? I wrote this as lullaby for my relatives who live in NYC AFTER THE FACT: THAT VIDEO IS A SALES CAMPAIGN
Clarification: both ‘WELCOME TO NEW YORK’ and ‘ILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU , NEW YORK’ ARE MY STORYLINES
The first Ryan Adams song that I ever heard. And now 15+ albums later, it’s still my favourite.
I'm listening to this on my headphones as I stand gazing over NYC from the One World Observatory.
every time Sep 11th rolls around, I have to listen to this track at least once... It feels more and more poignant with every passing year.
Steppenwolf pusher
WE KNOW
Me too
I am the same way.
This song is frequent (along with my other Ryan Adams songs) on my playlist, but I Always listen to this song on Sept 11, as a nice tribute to remember the great people of the city in the aftermath after the attacks! An absolutely great song
Please take time to remember all of the people who lost their lives on 9-11-01. God bless them all.
Please take the time to remember the 50,000+ people who survived that day but carry the wounds they received every day for the reat of their lives. They were assaulted that day. These are the walking victims of 9/11. No Justice, No peace. Just horific memories.
It's lovely to have a song associated with that time and place that is upbeat and reflective instead of being bombastic and mournful.
I'm so glad he decided to keep this video instead of changing it to something else.
This was "The Change" the first one was about riding around in Taxis, its still out there somewhere.
I post this video on my FB page every Sept 11.....reminds me what a wonderful place NYC is and will always be....and how strong the human spirit is there!!
Kelly Milliman I do the same. not only to remember the events of that day. but as a shout out to a lovely city I visited in 1995 at the age of 18, and a kudo to Ryan himself. I think this song and video was "needed" after 9/11 for all of us to heal.
Yeah, like a final beautiful tribute. A message from God that everything will always be alright and fall into its place accordingly.
I've been doing that myself for a few years as well...
I’m guessing you may not do it this year....
Thanks Kelly I really appreciate 🌹🌹🌹
I am Argentine and my only time in New York was between September 9 and 15, 2001. I had just started to know the city (and love it) when it was the fatal day. I was never able to return there, but I hope to do so sometime. This video is so sad, but Ryan Adams is really great
I'll never forget when I heard this for the first time. I told my gf at the time that I really liked it but had no idea who sang it. She sent me a link to Ryan and I bought the CD. Still enjoy it to this day.
This song and video gives me chills still. Thinking of you today America on the 20th anniversary of the terror attacks. (2021, 11 September) . David, Brisbane, Australia.
love this song as it always brings me back to 2001......god bless everyone who died on that dark day..
i dont know ABOUT YOU GUYS , BUT I LOVE THIS SONG
I'm so glad that I accidentally found this not so well known but sooo talented guy... hard to believe that this song is 10 years old, a great, timeless indie piece!
Lol, hard to believe this song is 22 years old now
20 years later. Never Forget
2020 and I still listen this song every anniversary 😞
The dance you do...
It's not the words you say it's the dance you do...
It's not the words you say it's the dance you do...
You could talk all day and not get anything done
untill you go out at night with a torch and a loaded Gun...

This song really makes me feel great. Reminds me of home, my love, and times when things were simpler...
This was filmed just 4 days before 9/11. Absolutely chilling.
RIP to the innocent lives lost on this tragic day 11 years ago. Never forget
on a sunny day on 9/11 in the UK in the county of Sussex, I was walking around my lounge with the tv on, not paying much attention. Then I was drawn to it by the images of those two buildings under attack. I have never been to NY , but I stood there and cried, for the people and its city. We all still love you NY............. from every where.
It’s that time of year again 😥
Here again 😢
Here again 😢
Just last week I attended my best friend's wedding at City Hall in Manhattan. After a lovely dinner in Midtown we went to a Koreatown karaoke place. I could think of nothing better to sing than this song for a beautiful New York City wedding--and everyone else agreed. Just a lovely tribute to the capital of the world.
One of the greatest singer/songwriters of all time right here. So prolific, so brilliant and his voice can go any and everywhere 🔥 💯
Prolific comes along more frequently when in your twenties you’re provided with a 6 inch thick portfolio of a 55 year old linguist…with zero remuneration
I wrote this in response to 9/11 , the sequence of events offered here is rigged
Yeah, but he abuses women.
somebody always has to jump in with some internet gossip about every person on the planet as if they don't have a past themselves@@ThePogues82
Of all time? Just stop. He’s really good. But all time? Lmao.
20 yrs ago today 🙏🙏🙏 never forget
4 days before the first chaos of 21st century, [ tears streaming ]
In 4 days, New York will never be the same
I listen to this song every anniversary.
Same! See you on the big 2-0
Same here
Me too
Thanks nietcey

Shot September 7, 2001, when the world was far more innocent.
This was the song I heard on the radio back in 2002 that introduced me to Ryan Adams and his awesome music. He is still to this day my all time favorite music artist and his music has been my main go-to playlist for most of my adult life. This song will always be one of my favorites of his!
This introduced me to him too. Though I had Whiskeytown cds before. Never knew it was filmed right before.
Thank you, New York, Guilty x 34!
10 years ago today. 4 days later, the world as we knew it would never be the same. And this song, instead of being about a girl, takes on a whole different meaning...
but it is about a girl...it's about a relationship happening in NYC it still does not in anyway detract from your point about it being very meaningful! ...my favorite part of the song...he mentions a picture of her in his wallet that almost blows away on the rooftop while he was drunk. cheers
@@Halliday7895 not quite. It's about both his failed love affair with a women and his life living in New York that despite the failed love affair and the women he doesn't love anymore, he will always continue to love New York.
And now 21 years ago
Dear America, you take a lot of shit from a lot of people, but I think you area wonderful place. Don’t ever change. Love from Europe 💙❤️🇺🇸🇪🇺
Ryan Adams is amazing. I heard about him a little over a year ago from a family friend, and haven't been able to get over him since. I love him so much!
New York baby 🔥 we still here
I'm so sorry, for all the people. For the towers. For Ryan.
I’m getting really strong “Tangled in Blue” vibes. Anybody else seeing the Dylan influence?
Beautiful song for a beautiful city.
Shame what the democrats hav done to it!
I miss my City, brother Firefighters, police, EMS workers.............all of them. RIP
Watching this video right now is my introduction to Ryan Adams. Never been later.
Every generation has a singer/ songwriter that stands out. Bob Dylan, Jackson brown, Ryan adams.
Filmed 09/07/2001. Days before. And the Twin Towers loom large.
This video was edited upstairs in the house on Pershing Drive, Playa del Rey, in the weeks after 9/11. I’m not sure whether the story is well-known, but the director and cinematographer, Ben [I’m sorry, I can’t remember his Ben’s last name but he’s very gifted] shot a lot of footage in a NYC borough - Brooklyn, it looked like to me - in late Aug or early Sept 2011 with Ryan Adams as a taxi driver, with a variety of colorful ‘characters’ ferried around on his nightshift. But someone thought the relatively ‘pensive’ taxi driver footage wasn’t dynamic enough on its own to carry this firecracker of a song, the first on Ryan Adams’ debut double album (‘Gold’), which was slated to be the debut single. So an extra day of shooting on Sept 8 was scheduled across the river, with lower Manhattan as a backdrop, with Adams playing his guitar. It was intended to be cross-cut with the taxi driver narrative, but in the wake of... well. In retrospect, it was all quite fortuitous, or seemed so. And incredibly, indelibly, raw for the few of us who saw this video come together.
The outtake taxi driver footage was made into an (unofficial) video for “Stars Go Blue” by my friend Michael Barnett, whose studio and apartment were in the house and whose equipment was used by the Adams production team. I watched that one being made as well, and it was on TH-cam for a few years but disappeared, no doubt a casualty of copyright, and of the fact that Michael (whose voluntary filming and editing of several of my special needs savant students led to a “60 Minutes” segment, broadcast on the series’ season debut in Sept 2003) died in a one-car crash in January 2007, about a minute from his Playa home. He was 30 years old.
In any event, I know this “New York, New York” video served as a very powerful, and (seemingly) almost immediate, cultural salve upon its release sometime in Oct 2001. But I just have to say, imagine watching it being made a week or two after. Imagine hearing this song every hour, night and day, for several weeks. I was in LA on 9/11, it was not like living in the city (or, specifically, in Little Italy) which in the early 1990s I briefly called home.
But there’s a reason I’ve only been back to NYC twice since that year. And have yet to bring myself to visit ‘Ground Zero’.
💜
2001 wouldn't be complete without the Gold album!
I'm born and raised in New York and I can tell you, those towers were New York. Big, bold and in your face. They represented us to a tee.
I've never heard of Ryan Adams, or this song. But it was a Spotify suggestion and I sure like it!
If you haven't found it yet you may want to check out Whiskeytown which was his band that put out a lot of really good music. Off the top of my head I'd recommend Faithless Street, Strangers almanac and Pneumonia.
Spending Summer 2011 in NEW YORK CITY...I'll be a long way from home (Dublin, Ireland)....Going to be the best summer ever.
I remember first hearing this in about March 2002, and all I could remember first hand was the guitar riffs/instrumental. Now I know it means so much more
I miss the Towers so much. I also miss the way life was before the Towers went down and what was taken from us when they collapsed, especially my friend, Michael Lyons FDNY. God Bless America, God Bless NYC.
Love this. There is such a melancholy-ness about it, and the hauntingly beautiful video.
most underated song ever! (and it has nothing to do with sympthony for 9/11 victims)
I feel both sad and nostalgic when I see the twins. R.i.p Twin Towers and all victims. Never forget.
Yeah , New York baby
The towers are still a mighty symbol of NYC. Tough to watch the vid but also it’s good to see the video and NYC with the WTC. Never forget
I still cry every time I hear this song.
Me too.
I knock-out an autist everytime I hear this song
R.I.P. Twin Towers
Sept 2018. Will always visit on this day. I still love you NY
Always ion my mind, especially on this day......
No that prayer in that comment was for them who died and them who continue to suffer health problems or grieving a loss from the attacks in New York on that day
For the World overall...
God bless us all
Amen
10 years ago this was one of my favorite songs....and i just found it again...awesome!!
Agreed. I have been singing the chorus for the last few days. And only visited NY once.
Now a days im not happy but will always be proud to be a new yorker!
Thanks Ryan. You nailed it.
The last morning of the 90's
6:00AM - 8:46 AM September 11, 2001
So eerie, that this song was recorded shortly before 9/11. So haunting
Nostalgic Zone the video was shot 4 days before, not the song recorded, love
The Moldy Peaches debut album was released on 9/11 and contained a song called “NYC’s like a graveyard”.
i bought this album like 3 or 4 days before september 11th, i was cranking this song on my car radio,when i got home i turned on the tv, and saw the attacks on the world trade center, later on that night i put this cd on, had a drink, and said a prayer for all those who were lost!! god bless those people and the healing power of music to bring peace to us all!!! AND EVEN THOUGH IM FROM BOSTON AND A DIE HARD SOX FAN, I WILL ALWAYS LOVE NEW YORK!!! GOD BLESS AND PEACE!!!
Love this song, but Summer of 69 is his masterpiece!!!
Summer of 69 is a Bryan Adams song. Ryan Adams has a very different style, but both are great.
This is so deep. I'm a native New Yorker that still lives here.
This song celebrates what is great about life and what is great about a great city. Love it. Thanks.
New York City! Greatest city in this world with spirit that never dies.
