Teddy Thompson
Teddy Thompson is the son of musicians Richard and Linda Thompson, born February 19th, 1976 in a London commune. He has big shoes to fill being the son of music royalty. If you have something to say to an ex lover of yours or someone else you do not like, Teddy can help. Teddy Thompson has a way of saying things in his songs that are new, refreshing and at times, downright mean. Songs like "That's Enough of out You", "I Wish It Was Over", "You Finally Said Something Good When You Said Goodbye" and "Separate Ways" are great examples.
The beginning of "I Wish It Was Over" will give you a good idea of the kind of songwriting I am speaking of:
"I wish it was over, I wish we were through,
I wish when my phone rang, it wasn't always you,
I don't even like you, or can't you tell,
Whenever I'm sober, I treat you like hell"
You don't have to have been romantically involved with someone to feel the need to tell them off. "That's Enough Out of You" is the perfect song for that.
"Hey now, that's enough out of you,
I get tired, just watching your jaw move,
People that talk this much have nothing to say
You're so up there, well it brings me down,
I wanna turn your smile, into a frown
Being happy is easy if you're dumb"
Amazing stuff really. If you get interested and need some new tunes, check out the "Separate Ways" and "Upfront and Down Low" albums, you will be happy you did. Here are a few of my favorites.
"A Change of Heart" - I am thinking this one may have been the reason for the other songs.
Teddy on Jools Holland - "Everybody Move It" and "I Wish It Was Over"
