When I'm Back in Chicago: A Love Song (Sort Of)

So, I’ve been thinking about this song, “When I’m Back in Chicago” by Djo. And honestly, it’s like the soundtrack to my soul (or at least, the part of my soul that isn’t currently consumed by existential dread). You know that feeling when a song just gets you? Like, it’s not just music, it’s a mood, an experience, a vibe? Yeah, that’s this song for me.

Chicago: The City of Second Chances (and Deep Dish Pizza)

I’ve never been to Chicago. Not once. And yet, this song makes me feel like I’ve lived there my whole life and then abruptly moved to Mars. There’s something undeniably nostalgic about it, even though I have absolutely nothing to be nostalgic about. It’s like the musical equivalent of those comfort food cravings you get when you’re homesick for a place you’ve never been.

The lyrics are like a postcard from a friend who’s living their best life in the Windy City. They're painting a picture of a place where dreams are made (or at least, really good pizza is). It’s a city that feels both familiar and foreign, like that one really cool cousin you only see at family reunions.

Is it Just Me, or is this Song Really Good?

I mean, seriously, this song is a masterpiece. The melody is catchy, the lyrics are relatable (even if you’ve never been to Chicago), and Joe Keery’s voice is like butter. It’s the kind of song you can listen to on repeat without getting tired of it. It's the auditory equivalent of a warm hug on a cold day.

I’m not sure if this song is about heartbreak or new beginnings or just a really good day, but whatever it is, it’s resonating with me on a deep level. Maybe it’s the promise of something better, a fresh start, a new chapter. Or maybe it’s just the allure of a city I’ve never been to but feel inexplicably drawn to.

Either way, I’m hooked.
