Of course, I'm not telling the full story unless I mention that I also have the music video stuck in my head. Vanessa Carlton's "A Thousand Miles" starts out in her family's garage, tinkering on the piano, when she (and the piano) start to glide out the door onto the street. She comes full circle after travelling through Manhattan, the highway in New Mexico, among other places (accompanied by marching bands, motorcycle gangs, and a little owl a couple times).

Making my way downtown
Walking fast
Faces pass
And I'm home bound
Staring blankly ahead
Just making my way
Making a way
Through the crowd

Watch the video on Launch

Sure Vanessa's a beautiful gal, but ultimately it's the energy behind the melody (and the orchestra backup) and the idea of gliding down the street belting out my song on a grand.
