Never Knew You Loved Me Too 2:32 02. Make A Wish On Me 2:16 03. Better At Lying 2:54 04. Wondering 2:38 05. I Thought That We Said Goodbye 2:38 06. Don't Remind Me 3:07 07. As You Were 2:37 08. Only Fooling 2:45 09. You Can't Call Me Baby 1:57 10. You Took My Future 2:20 Release Notes: -------- Teddy Thompson is one of the best living hopes for contemporary music. His songwriting is informed by the poetic touches of country music (he recorded some of his favorites in that vein back in 2007 via Up Front & Down Low). HeÆs capable of writing impeccable ballads driven by nail-biting narratives. And he can sing. Not sing in the sense of cram a bunch of notes into a tiny space and blurt a bunch of pseudo-soulful garbage but, rather, convince the listener that what weÆre hearing coming from ThompsonÆs mouth is some version of the truth and maybe the quintessential version of it. HeÆs also proven himself an able collaborator, whether with his similarly gifted mother Linda on several of her recent and damned near perfect solo efforts, his good friend Rufus Wainwright, or with his entire family on a record that brought together his parents for the first time in 30 years (his father is songwriting legend Richard Thompson) and saw this young red-headed boy come out as the star of the whole affair. (No small feat when you consider the talent pool. Rather than go the route of many contemporary duet records, Thompson and Jones have chosen to take up their own pens and collaborate on the overwhelming majority of the material with Bill DeMain, arriving to the party with 10 songs that could have just as easily been written 60 years ago. This is music thatÆs focused on the purity of expression. Like the music of Sam Cooke or Porter Wagoner, ôAs You Wereö and ôBetter at Lyingö express something that the listener has felt before even if they havenÆt been able to put those experiences into their own words. It also helps that the vocal performances sound like theyÆre delivered by folks who have also felt those things and are doing their best to explain æem to the rest of us. Despite a knowledge of the past this isnÆt a record thatÆs stuck in it: ôOnly Foolingö marries Porter and Dolly sensibilities beside the best of soul and the best of contemporary music as well. In fact, some of the better parts of that song are built on Davey FaragharÆs flawless bass figure and Pete ThomasÆs equally impressive drumming. But more than that, Thompson, Jones and their collaborators have given us a round of tunes that arenÆt already classics but are certainly destined to be. Witness ôYou CanÆt Call Me Babyö, ôNever Knew You Loved Me Tooö, ôMake a Wish on Meö and ôWonderingö, each of which fills that description and stands beside several others that could easily do so as well.
