In the last couple of weeks, I have compiled quite a playlist of songs about home. Some of these songs are obvious. Others, not so much. Some are really songs about going home, with titles such as "Home" and "Coming Home", etc. Others are about America. The order is somewhat random, but kind of follows the pattern of my year -- songs about leaving, songs about missing, songs about coming home, and songs about finding home.
I made this playlist in iTunes, I've been giving it a listen every now and then, and I fully plan on listening to this thing on the plane ride home.
Feel free to make a similar playlist. And if you don't know some of these songs, I'd suggest searching for them on youtube, because most of them are legitimately decent songs! (I've mostly tried to stay within my own musical tastes for this list.)
If you have any other suggestions, I welcome them, as well!
Enjoy!

I wanted to make one of those cool mixpod things, but it wasn't worth all of the trouble. Half of those videos don't work anyway. But there you go! Enjoy the list! I know I will!
PS. Here is a song that I can't download yet -- therefore, it is not on the list, but it is very applicable and awesome, and by one of my favorite singers. So enjoy this song too!
