WHEN HOMESICK TAKES ON A NEW MEANING

We’ve all been stuck inside for quite a while now. Here’s a little something to take the edge off. Throw this on, grab your gloves and cleansers, and spend 45 minutes making things a little better around your house. I hope you’ll feel a little better about your mental state and your environment when it’s over.

Top 10

#1
"Chuck Brown & The Soul Searchers"
by Bustin’ Loose (1979)

Bustin’ Loose — Chuck Brown & The Soul Searchers (1979)


My friends assure me I’m no dancer, but I can hardly stop myself when something this funky comes on. Stay inside and listen to those horns.

#2
"We Gotta Get Out of This Place"
by The Animals (1965)

We Gotta Get Out of This Place — The Animals (1965)


And we will! Just not yet. For now, check out that bassline that drives the whole song. There’s all the room in the world for Eric Burdon to open up on those vocals. Shout it with him.

#3
"Get Off of My Cloud"
by The Rolling Stones (1965)

Get Off of My Cloud — The Rolling Stones (1965)


Some people bring this song down as just “Satisfaction” all over again, some people boost it up as “Satisfaction” all over again! Let Mick and Keith tell off those folks at the grocery store who can’t figure out social distancing.

#4
"Fever"
by Little Willie John (1956)

Fever — Little Willie John (1956)


Peggy Lee took it higher on the pop charts, but Little Willie John recorded it first and took it to #1 on the R&B charts. The sax and guitar are sweaty and ominous, but the vocals will give you chills. Dig deep in the crates for this R&B classic.

#5
"Desperately Wanting"
by Better Than Ezra (1996)

Desperately Wanting — Better Than Ezra (1996)


Mellow remembrances that burst into a wild chorus. As Kevin Griffin said of his song, “…how when you're young and you're running around all night, and life hasn't had its way with you…That's an amazing time of promise, and that's what 'Desperately Wanting' is about." I’m feeling it.

#6
"My Wandering Days Are Over"
by Belle and Sebastian (1996)

My Wandering Days Are Over — Belle and Sebastian (1996)


Like all the best songs from this group, this is funny, sad, and wistful. Kind of like me after 9 weeks cooped up inside.

#7
"Watch the Sunrise"
by Big Star (1972)

Watch the Sunrise — Big Star (1972)


It’s the simple pleasures that the virus can’t take away. “Fears be gone, it won’t be long / there’s a light in the skies. / It’s OK to look outside / the day it will abide.” Even when you’ve got to stay in, spend a moment with the sun.

#8
"Me, Myself and I"
by Beyoncé (2003)

Me, Myself and I — Beyoncé (2003)


Guess who you’re stuck spending time with during quarantine? You’re gonna be your own best friend, but that awesome slinky bassline can visit too.

#9
"Ode to My Family"
by The Cranberries (1994)

Ode to My Family — The Cranberries (1994)


Family’s the best part of the quarantine. Think about this: you’re going to look back on this time as one of fear and uncertainty, but your kids are going to mostly just remember that crazy few months when you spent every day with them. Make it one of their best memories.

#10
"A Change Is Gonna Come"
by Sam Cooke (1964)

A Change Is Gonna Come — Sam Cooke (1964)


And for the better. This won’t last forever, we’ll get through. Take your time with every verse. They’re all a little different.
