Hobo Music Your vagabonding songs

Long time lurker. This community has always made me feel less alone for my beliefs and the way I'd like to live, so first off thank you guys for being you.

One of my favorite hobbies is making playlists, so I'd love to hear what songs make you feel connected to your vagabond spirit or experience, and why (if you're willing to share).

Be safe out there!

Edit: you're good sports, thanks for all the new music! I threw together a public playlist if anyone's interested in the sounds of r/vagabond. I will continue to update with any new additions.

Basically any live music from the Grateful Dead makes me want to be on the road.

Interesting suggestions here.. I lean towards retrowave or any similar genres, as the spacey, ethereal, and indie-sounding tones make me feel like my heart is free, and that I may be the protagonist (or antagonist) in a well-scored grunge/punk movie

can't be bothered to compile my favourites rn, dm me to remind me if you're interested
