In Their Words: “‘Great Escape’ is a song about wanting to be taken seriously. That feeling of starting a new relationship and hoping that your partner is taking it as seriously as you are. On the original record it was a pretty grand, sweeping thing, and here in its new iteration it’s much more contemplative and intense. I think this version better captures the mood of the idea and the desperation of hoping that you’re not just a lark.” — Donovan Woods
