2021 was a weird year for me on a couple of levels.
Firstly, I experienced my first full-on lockdown (I got lucky in 2020, I guess) and everything I loved as a tween/teen was suddenly cool again?!
People are wearing low rise jeans now, I own butterfly clips again and everyone seems to have a beaded phone charm (also since we all have smart phones and not brick Nokia’s with built-in hooks, I don’t actually know where those charms are hanging from?!).
This resurgence kind of led me back down the pop-punk path I was on when I was 15 – feeling my feelings and what not. I also enjoyed easy-going music, albums that made me feel comfortable, relaxed, zen and really just like I could chill out.
For me, while 2020 was indescribable, 2021 was just odd. I’m keen to see what happens in 2022!
