My favorite song off of FTE is Elsewhere. What's yours?

I'm not the first to say this but Fumbling Towards Ecstasy is THE album that got me to become such a huge fan of hers. Depending on my mood or whatnot, my favorite Sarah Mclachlan song often shifts. Right now it's Elsewhere, and it was rekindled when I saw a post on Facebook about the song. A photographer created a conceptual image that he based on the song, and I think it's really quite brilliant. Now it's gotten me to revisit FTE, and I've got it on repeat on my ipod.

Here's the picture in case your curious to checking it out. I didn't wanted to upload it, I wanted to make sure credit was given :)

Hi Sarah,

Right now my favorite is "Mary", which seems, the more I listen to it, to be such a deep song, with lots of possible meanings, not just about relationships, but life in general. It has a kind of gospel quality, enhanced by Ash 's screaming in some of the live versions, that is both funny and endearing, but doesn't detract from the effect of the song. But next week it may be another one, "depending on my mood", and often is. "Ice" is another often-favorite, for somewhat similar reasons. I can't enough of that one, either. :) Elsewhere reminds me of being a teenager, although from a different perspective, of course, and is very powerful. The whole album is exceptional, anyway.
