I have a pretty long list of songs about Ohio, songs by Ohio bands, or songs that make me think of my second home. I actually have a sort of love/hate thing going with the state right now – it’s where a lot of my family lives, but it’s also home to my ex-boyfriend, and I’m still struggling with that. I get to go be with my family on Wednesday, finally, and I’m probably listening to my Spotify playlist non-stop until then. A few of my favorites follow.

Hawthorne Heights, Ohio is for Lovers

Miranda Lambert, Look at Miss Ohio

The Low Anthem, To Ohio

Counting Crows, Four Days

Guided by Voices, Hold on Hope
