Wikipedia
Driven
Driven is a song by Canadian rock band Rush from their 1996 album Test for Echo. It was the third of five singles released from the album and reached No. 3 on the US Mainstream Rock chart. Lead singer and bassist Geddy Lee said about the song:'Driven' is just from a bass player's point of view. I wrote that song with three tracks of bass. I brought it to Alex and said, 'Here's the song; I did three tracks of bass, but I just did that to fill in for the guitar',and he said, 'Let's keep it with the three basses.' So, I said, 'I love you.'

Driven
Driven is a 2001 action drama film directed by Renny Harlin and starring Sylvester Stallone, who also wrote and produced. It centers on a young racing driver's effort to win the Champ Car World Series auto racing championship. Prior to production of the movie, Stallone was seen at many Formula 1 races, but he was unable to procure enough information about the category due to the secrecy with which teams protect their cars, so he decided to base the film on Champ Car.
