Heart of Nowhere, 2013
Written by Charlie Fink
This is a song that wears its influences on its sleeve. The very first line references Neil Young's classic albums: "Well, I was looking for harvest, but I only found silver and gold." The song is structured around a repetitive simple percussion line, but when the chorus kicks in, the synth riff, vocal delivery, and even the lyric strongly evokes the Talking Heads' "This Must Be the Place." It's a song that asks for faith in love in a time of confusion and uncertainty, but doesn't offer any promises. "And you’re just hanging on to a glimmer of hope / Of the life you had before / But it's too late."
