Will has, throughout our trip, insisted that I will eventually have to move there, especially considering how fed up I have grown with New York. At times, the temptation can be great, imagining the cheaper rents (as long as I don't move to SF), the slower pace, and the prospect of being closer to my parents and family.
Today's RTA only further tugs at the hearts of all those who have chosen to settle somewhere other than the Golden State, as it perfectly captures the happy-go-lucky, debonair lifestyle that so many of today's generation would like to live. For better or worse, it seems many of us (myself included) wish only to eschew responsibility, escape our miserable jobs, and party like there's no tomorrow. At times we may even spend a weekend living the Katy Perry way, only to have Monday roll around and smack us back into reality.
For me, this song is an escapist masterpiece, providing a perfect refuge from the daily grind, the packed subways, the parking tickets and every other aspect of life on the east coast rat race that slowly wears away at our souls.
Whether on the road, or wishing you were on the road, this song has that feel-good vibe that will get you in good spirits.
