Ryan Adams, dedicated Taylor Swift cover artist and Bryan Adams birthday sharer, has a new album coming out in February called Prisoner. It's his first collection of original songs since he split with ex-wife Mandy Moore, and you can bet it's going to contain a heavy dose of breakup tunes.

"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," Adams told The Japan Times. "To be me and to go through that the way that I did was destructive on a level that I can’t explain."

He's already shared one song from the album, "Do You Still Love Me?"

The songwriter also did an exclusive interview with internet-famous cat Lil Bub on her talk show. He talked about how he loves sad songs and how he's a secret goth, and he also penned a brand new tune on the fly for his new feline friend.

Also, Lil Bub asked Adams the single most pressing question on everyone's minds right now: "Are you spayed?"

"Emotionally, yes," Adams replied.
