I've lived in Los Angeles for over a decade now, so I think it's finally time that I tackle perhaps the most LA song ever written. Free Fallin' is both Tom Petty's celebration and his admonishment of my adopted city, wrapped in layers of complex production and lyrical nuance that challenge listeners to reexamine their concepts of freedom while also being just super fun to sing along with.
