Seth Tabatznik has always sounded like a writer who was paying close attention to the world, and “We Are Walking Home” seems to represent his most expansive offering. The British folk singer-songwriter, who calls South Africa home, uses the song as more than just a story, it’s a feeling that she unfolds slowly and warmly.
Written by Tabatznik and produced by Jürgen von Wechmar, “We Are Walking Home” marries intimacy with momentum seamlessly. It is both personal and communal, a sense of shared journey rather than solitary one. The song’s optimistic outward turn does not sabotage its meaning, it enhances it, indicating that hope and joy can coexist with introspection.
“We Are Walking Home” wastes no time delivering its message. It walks with you, nudging you ever so gently about all the things home isn’t always a place but rather a direction, a rhythm, and from time to time, an Eeyore song.
