Although I currently live just outside of Vancouver I've never considered it my home, it's definitely not my city, it's little more than a place close to work to sleep and shower for me. I certainly don't know Vancouver well enough to staple a song to it. I grew up in a small riverside town about an hour drive from Vancouver called Chilliwack, since I moved to the city two years ago I've spent every single weekend back in Chilliwack.
I've always loved CCR, since my parent's played it a lot when I was growing up, but it was only a couple of years ago that I realized the lyrics, line for line, perfectly describe growing up in Chilliwack, moving to the city, and then longing to return back home. I've considered it the song of my hometown since and it almost moves me to tears every time I listen to it while driving back.
