I have two children, and I’m trying to teach them about what it means to be, and the ways we all stand to benefit from being, good neighbors.

We’re currently in the middle of it as a country and as a species.

We all know some version of this conversation. How much to give away? How much to keep for ourselves? How much is too much, and how much is not enough? Maybe the conversation that the mother and son have throughout ‘Hardlytown’ was my attempt to reckon with the tension that exists between selflessness and selfishness.

The times that we’re living through have made me think, in so many different ways large and small, about our obligations to one another. “Hardlytown,” a country ballad with a Bob Dylan influence, also comes with a music video by Saleem Reshamwala aka KidEthnic.

The Staple Singers and Curtis Mayfield were very good at writing these kinds of songs, and I suppose I was looking to their music as inspiration for ‘If It Comes in the Morning.’ When I got stumped on a verse, I called my friend Anaïs Mitchell, and she got me straightened out. And in remembering, at least, that these feelings exist, I suppose it became a song of hope. “Initially, I didn’t know how much hope to include in the song-I wasn’t feeling particularly hopeful myself in that moment-but I felt that it was important to remember that whatever happened, most of us were going to be fortunate enough to be given another day in which to enact what I feel are the most important and fundamental parts of being alive: joy, love, peace, the willingness to keep moving forward whether the cards fall in our favor or not. The country was on fire, and I kept thinking to myself, ‘What comes next?’” says Taylor. It’s not exactly a record about the state of the worldor my world in 2020, but.
