Comment:

When I left Philadelphia, I made my friends a 6 CD mix collection. The songs that comprise those discs were taken from some of the 1,000 CDs I've had to sell since getting laid off to be able to afford a move to Chicago.

While not all of the songs are about leaving town, a big majority of the tracks here are. If you're ever making a Goodbye or breakup tape, consult some of these sources.

- "Motor Away" is a great ending to a goodbye mix.
- "Everything that I've done has been based on some woman's charms/Yeah all that I do, more or less, is for some woman's sake" the Verlaines
- "I was young when I left home, but I been out rambling round, and I never wrote a letter to my home..." Bob Dylan
- "Your unreal is here now/There is nothing to not be amazed at" Chavez
