Taylor has been fascinated with the Kennedy family for a long time. After meeting Rory Kennedy (Robert & Ethel's daughter) at a concert she met with Ethel. She was so fascinated by her! They became friends and Taylor even went to the showing of the documenrty "Ethel" at the Sundance Film Festival in 2012. Taylor wrote this song for Ethel.

Taylor saw an old photograph of Ethel and Bobby Kennedy and she wondered about what it would've been like to be young and free in 1945. So she wrote this song about what their night would've been like.
