BACK IN THE DAY

2:48country 2025-05-22

Description

A song that smells of bonfires, petrol from an old pickup truck, and pies taken out of the oven on the porch. This is not nostalgia, but rather an attempt to find solid ground beneath our feet - the very ground where adults were not afraid to say hello, children played until dark, and the word ‘I promise’ did not need to be confirmed with an SMS code.

Each line is like a yellowed photograph found in a box of Christmas decorations. Not to make you cry, but to remind you that simplicity is not simplification, but the freedom not to complicate things.

And if suddenly everything around you seems a little too much... this song is like a ‘back’ button. It doesn't cancel out reality, but it lets you breathe. With guitar accompaniment, of course.
