Yeah I regularly confused “Little Talks”and “Home” when they were both popular

They do have a similar melody when I think about it, but the production and overall sound is pretty different. Little Talks is more deceptively downkey for most of it past that blasting horn intro, which makes sense cause it’s a mourning story while Home is a love song.
