Readers recommend: songs about escape

You don't have to be Harry Houdini to have experienced what it means to escape. Us mere mortals escape, too. We might get away from it all, from the daily grind, on holiday. Or escape from a bad relationship, or a job – or simply escape into our imaginations. To make music is, if it's done right, a form of liberation.
