The kind of music fan who ends up moving to Scotland in his 40's to write a PhD thesis about Nick Cave. No, that's not a joke.

What is a song that feels like home to you?

One might think that for a song to feel like home, it would need to be one with which you have a long history. This song is not that. It found me eight years ago, when I was the tender young age of 37, on the Mercury Prize winning debut record by Sampha.

Home can mean many things, but one irreducible truth about it is you’ll know you’ve found it when you feel seen, known, understood and loved. That’s why music can “feel like home” at all. Because a song like this takes hold of you and says “You are not alone. We are here. All of us. And we are with you.”
