“Sweet Dreams, TN” is seemingly dedicated to Alex Turner’s girlfriend at the time he wrote this song, Taylor Bagley. While Bagley was actually born in Oklahoma, she was raised in Nashville, Tennessee and considers it her hometown. “TN” is the state abbreviation for Tennessee. This is one of the few songs on the album where Turner gets sole writing credit, so one can reasonably assume it’s more personal than the rest of the LP where Turner and Kane seem to be playing characters.

The Last Shadow Puppets is an English supergroup that consists of Alex Turner of Sheffield band Arctic Monkeys and Miles Kane of The Rascals. They released their debut album, The Age Of The Understatement, on the 21st April 2008 in the U.K., and 6th May in the U.S. The album also features James Ford (producer and half of the duo Simian Mobile Disco) and string arrangements from Owen Pallett. The album went straight to number one in the U.K. Albums Chart. Their first single "The Age Of The Understatement" was released on the 14th of April, with a new song titled "Two Hearts in Two Weeks" and covers of Billy Fury's "Wondrous Place" and David Bowie's "In the Heat of the Morning" (a song previously mentioned by Turner as a favourite) as b-sides.
