Today I was back in 2021 which really did surprise me because I thought I was listening to a 2024 album. It turns out that the current number 70 album is Noah Kahan’s 2021 album ‘I was/I am’.
I’ve listened to Noah Kahan before on the blog here. Stick Season was his 2022 album which was at number 3 on the chart when I listened to it. And here we are with ‘I was/I am’ is his 2021 entering the UK album chart for the first time. Where will it reach over the next few years? Noah Kahan is the king of moving up the chart.
This album was very pop whereas ‘Stick Season’ was far more folk.
My favourite song was Bad Luck. I listened to this album 3 times today and everytime this song turned up I though he was saying he was a bad duck. And I’ve met some bad ducks so I felt like I understood the metaphor but no, it wasn’t a metaphors…he’s just bad luck.
