When asked about his musical process, his answers were entirely uncomplicated.

"One day I'll wake up and I'll have 10 or 12 songs and think, `Oh that sounds like it could be a record,' " he said of his creative process.

His new album, "11", which happens to be his 11th studio album, was produced during Adams' down time on tour. He would set up studios in his hotel room and record.

"We'd order up some food or something and they'd come in and see the mattresses against the window, and microphones going into the toilet," he said. "But it worked. It dispelled the rumours that you have to record in an isolated place."

It's that blue-collar work ethic that makes Adams so successful, said media personality Terry David Mulligan, who has been tracking his career since watching him perform with his former band Sweeney Todd in the late 1970s.

"He was laughingly doing 320 days a year (of work), there were no days off for him" he said. "The only days off were because he couldn't be onstage somewhere because he was flying or travelling."

I LOVE Bryan Adams. He was the warm up act for Journey at my very first concert back when Cuts Like A Knife was first released (at least I think that was the album title Fear) and he was so cool!
My daughter who was obsessed with the movie Spirit...Stallion of The Cimmaron got me to buy the soundtrack (written by Bryan) and we wore that baby out in the car....over and over and over again...but it's really great music!
I too, love this man. I think he is one of the best songwriters of our time. I know so many of his songs by heart, I could relate to SO many of them. Summer of 69 (always loved that song and my DH was born that summer), I'll Always Be Right There (our wedding song), Please Forgive Me (our marriage theme song Haha J/K ), The Only Thing That Looks Good On You Is Me, (I Wanna Be) Your Underwear Haha and then there's Heaven.

I, sadly, have never seen him perform live. I just checked and he's going to be in AC this summer! w00t

Thanks for the great article AgingHippie.

Seger, I think my daughters would love that Spirit movie too. I'll definately be checking out the songs.
