I have a love/hate relationship with this state. This thought came up after I noticed how many people on here are from NYC. Not a dig at NYC, it’s cool but I love TX. I’ve lived here for about 15 years. I came into my own here. I’ve been to every corner of the state but haven’t been to every city. I like north texas the most but central will always be home. People here are friendlier than you’d expect. anytime I read an article about Texas I always assume this person has never stepped foot in the state. the preconceptions people may have about this state and its people are usually wrong. I could write more, and I probably will at some point. The thought of leaving it all behind breaks my heart.
the song/band reminds me of home. super bummed they decided to skip us on their tour.

I listened to Current Joys' album "Wild Heart" a few months ago, but I didn't register or dissect many of the songs since I was focusing schoolwork. Recently, while listening to my Liked Songs on shuffle, "New York City" came on, and I was all over it. Perhaps I'm just biased, having plans to take a trip to New York this June, but this song hits in all the right places for a summer vacation-vibe. Current Joys' consistent nostalgic feel is naturally present in this song, like many of their others, though it's a much more upbeat track than what one would expect from them. For a Texas boy like me, "New York City" encapsulates everything I'm looking forward to in a trip to the big city; fear, memories, opportunities, and pure excitement.

i moved from philly to jersey recently (which doesn‘t sound big because they’re close (but trust me)) and i‘m in a really weird maybe very melodramatic state of mourn. i love where i’m from and who it’s made me and the GIFT of perspective i’ve received from growing there
