Lily Hain - Oh God

“Oh God,” the New York winter is upon us. For North Carolina transplant Lily Hain, this experience surely triggered second thoughts. The straight-shooting singer/songwriter embarks on a rant in her new song, and that is what we all sometimes need. But in the end, it is all a matter of setting expectations, as Lily explains:

“I wrote it during my first winter in New York City after moving from North Carolina, which has much milder winters. It’s about my frustration of the constant of bitter cold, grey days and what it does to my mindset. It also chronicles the novelty of moving to New York City wearing off – I had dreamt of moving to NYC since I was a little girl so this song touches on the realities of living in the big city versus the shiny version I had in my head.”
