Got a car, got some gas,

Great write-up, Nick. While I do love Gone an awful lot, I'm going to chose MFC (which I also love). To me, Gone is about wanting to get out but being unable to at the moment. When I listen to MFC I imagine getting into the car and just going somewhere, anywhere far away.

I always viewed Given to Fly as song about getting away. That's the song that would get my vote.

the first lines is about getting away...but overall feeling of GTF i feel it's just been yourself and not minding what other people think of you. but there are many interpretations of that song...all great

It's a tough choice between RVM and Gone, but right now I think I'll have to say Gone wins, because of my life situation
