Why "Fly"?

"It's the whole Chicks thing. We've kind of earned our wings," relates Martie.
"The first album was like the mama bird, the record company,
pushing us towards the edge so we could learn to fly.
And now we're doing it on our own. We've always stood up for what we believe in.
But now we have more confidence and ability to soar and fly. Our career has really taken off.
Natalie was flying from a situation she didn't want to be in.
Emily's flying to a better place with someone she loves,
and I'm experiencing the musical flight that I've waited so long to take.
When I said to the girls, 'What about Fly for the title of our album?'
we started to see how many references there were to flight, birds, or wings in the songs.
There are so many meanings to it. It was like a sign."
