Although we weren't really the all-singing, all-dancing-around-the-piano folkies or anything like that, there is that idea of singing and playing with your parents and your family and your cousins.” IdeasParentSingingDancingFolksBackgroundsPianoOur FamilyCousinFamily BackgroundYour Cousin Author:Teddy Thompson
“I remember writing 'The One I Can't Have' at the kitchen table. I was looking at a picture of Truman Capote with Marilyn Monroe and that's where I started. It doesn't make any sense because he was gay, but it was just the idea of the short guy and the beautiful blonde out of his league. That's where I started, but very quickly it became about me.” WritingI CanIdeasBeautifulRememberGuyGayTablesLeagueKitchenBlondeTrumanKitchen Table Author:Teddy Thompson
