Any chance of a fix?</p>JohnFri, 18 Apr 2008 15:41:25 -0000http://popdose.com/the-popdose-guide-to-matthew-ryan/#comment-296254<p>Thank-you Jeff, I have enjoyed the bit I have heard so far!! </p>JBWed, 02 Apr 2008 23:53:38 -0000http://popdose.com/the-popdose-guide-to-matthew-ryan/#comment-292204<p>Thanks for this post, and thanks to Mr. Ryan for his additional comments. I've loved his music for years, and the only thing I would add is that "Guilty" from May Day is one of the best first tracks on a debut album ever by any artist.</p><p></p>Jeff KTue, 01 Apr 2008 23:34:55 -0000http://popdose.com/the-popdose-guide-to-matthew-ryan/#comment-291174<p>one of the truly great musicians around -- i hope more people become aware of him. in a just world, he'd be a household name, but then, in a just world, he wouldn't need to write the songs he writes.</p>G.

Not even a Lenny Kravitz hater.</p><p>Caruso's methods makes him look like a drop out of the William Shatner School of Acting. Instead of overacting, Caruso underacts. Underacts almost to the point of being comatose. I wonder how many hours a day he practices taking off those sunglasses??</p>Old_DavyTue, 01 Apr 2008 11:46:15 -0000http://popdose.com/the-popdose-guide-to-matthew-ryan/#comment-289325<p>The streaming player doesn't seem to like commas, so it's refusing to play "Rain, Rain, Rain," but it'll download just fine. The others should be fixed now...</p>jefitoTue, 01 Apr 2008 11:40:38 -0000http://popdose.com/the-popdose-guide-to-matthew-ryan/#comment-289275<p>Got it now.

And another artist I've never heard of before until Popdose. Thanks. I'll have to listen to these tracks when I have time to really LISTEN. From the snippets I heard, it sounds like they deserve full attention.</p><p>The link to "Return To Me" is broken.</p>Old_DavyTue, 01 Apr 2008 10:29:24 -0000
