Martha-Jane Official - What Is Home

Copied!

What is home to you, can you tell me

What is home to you, can you tell me
What is home to me
Is it in the things I see
Or where I wish I could be
Is home the people you love or the one you’re part of
Is home just a memory

Is home the child within me
Or where the adult feels free
Is home just a comfort zone
Is it just for things already known
Now who can tell me
What is home

Is there one soul that doesn’t roam

The meaning of the song

edit description

"What Is Home" by Martha-Jane Official is a heartfelt exploration of the concept of home. The lyrics pose thought-provoking questions about what truly makes a place feel like home. Is it the physical surroundings, the people we love, or the sense of belonging and comfort that we find there? The song delves into the idea of home as a sanctuary, a place where we can be ourselves and find peace. The haunting melody and introspective lyrics make "What Is Home" a poignant and moving reflection on the meaning of home.

Biography

edit bio

At the beginning of Martha-Jane’s journey to release her first EP in 2024, is a bowl of chocolate cereals and a television, on a Sunday morning of September 2001, in suburban Paris. The screen put light on a black fedora and a sparkling glove. And while the Western world experienced a major geopolitical upheaval, a little girl found a beacon that would never leave her.

This marked the beginning of years spent in choir, dance, and diligently reading record sleeve credits. She became involved in music-related associations and organized studio meetings with artists whose names adorned those CD booklets. Eventually, she found her place in the music business.

But a year before Covid put our lives on hold, she learnt that hers might not be as long as expected. Guts problems, apparently. Suddenly, everything became urgent, starting with giving herself permission to create “her music”. She thus spent two years learning music theory in jazz and contemporary music schools. This allowed her to deepen her understanding of her influences, ranging from Stevie Wonder to Carole King, Steely Dan, Minnie Riperton, and Michael Jackson. Through her music, she expresses a blend of happy nostalgia, introspection, a sense of place, and the importance of following one’s gut.
