专辑简介
Teddy Thompson's self-produced, third album features personal touches on some of his favorite country songs. "Down Low" is the only original track by Thompson on the album. Six songs include string arrangments by Robert Kirby, while "My Blue Tears" features strings arranged by Rufus Wainwright. This is certainly not the first time Wainwright has collaborated with friend and fellow songwriter Thompson, as they have worked together on previous albums by both artists.
Songs include Boudleaux Bryant's "Change of Heart," Ernest Tubb's "Walking the Floor Over You," Dolly Parton's "My Blue Tears," George Jones' "She Thinks I Still Care," and others by Merle Haggard, Bob Luman, and Elvis Presley.
"As strange as it may seem, country music was the music I was brought up on. It's the music that's closest to my heart and the music that speaks to me the most, and it's always been a big influence on my own songwriting. I was obsessed with country music when I was a kid, and it's definitely had a huge influence on the way I write songs. I was always attracted to songs that had a brilliant pun or a clever turn of phrase, but came from a dark, bitter place. As a writer, I've always gravitated towards that feeling." - VerveMusicGroup
