Here (during COVID lockdown) Norah plays songs from her seventh record, Pick Me Up Off the Floor, songs that hold the world's weight and the power to uplift.
You can hear that on "I'm Alive," which she co-wrote with Jeff Tweedy. It's a song that at once feels the pain of politics and a pain that is personal. "You feel your soul / Get hollowed-out / While the world implodes / You just live without." Yet the refrain is what lingers, "Oh, I'm alive / Yes, I'm alive / But I'm alive / Oh, I'm alive." Thanks, Norah, for this beautiful affirmation.
