Performing “Gimme Something Good” ahead of the release of Ryan Adams, Adams impressed David Letterman so much on his show last night (11 September) that he was asked to just play it again.
“Can you do just a little bit more? Right now?” Letterman asks, ecstatic, before Adams launches straight back into “Gimme Something Good”. A rare occurrence, but not all that surprising when you consider how great both the track and the performer are.
Watch the performance(s) of “Gimme Something Good” below.
Ryan Adams is out now on PaxAmericana/Sony.
