Prompt: "A song about being sick"
Selected by Maeve
"Homesick"
Noah Kahan
Stick Season, 2022
I've been listening to the Noah Kahan album Stick Season pretty repeatedly for my RC review (which also comes out today!). And spoiler alert, but: I like this song.
I don't think I've been truly homesick in years. I've almost lived in Philadelphia as long as I lived in New England. It's a crazy, dark thought experiment to think about where I'd be if I'd come back from college and stayed. Where would I be? What would I be doing? It definitely would have been the easier choice. But here I am, a proud Philadelphian who has fully leaned in.
