What it is
"Seventeen" is a song by Sharon Van Etten, co-written with Kate Davis, and the sixth track on her 2019 album Remind Me Tomorrow, released as the album's third single in January 2019. The song looks at New York City past and present, and Van Etten sees in today's young dreamers a mirror of the hope and freedom she felt at that age.
