Songfacts®:

  • This drinking song was released as the fourth single by Outasight (aka Richard Andrew), from his debut album Nights Like These. The song's music video sees Andrew getting on with life in a wintry, blue-collar area of New York. "The shots and wardrobe are gritty, representing the working man and woman who make this city great," Andrew told Billboard magazine. "New York is an amazingly diverse and resilient place, so we wanted to represent that as make my return after traveling far and wide working towards my dream. They say home is where is the heart is, so no matter how far I've gone, there's only one place I go back to. That's all I'm trying to do, find home and find peace."
