What songs hype you up and convince you to live the life you've chosen? I love music, and as I've gone more places and learned more about myself I've found my taste expanding. Below is a YouTube playlist I put together when I was finding the courage to quit my job and leave everything behind, plus some stuff that resonates with me now more than it ever did only a short 5 months ago. Anybody else gotten any good suggestions, or what do you think the soundtrack of your own life would be? I realize this doesn't have much to do with squatting or hitching or hopping or anarchy or any of the other typical threads, but I grew up finding peace in music. As I grew older, it's where I found strength. Now, it's where I draw inspiration. I see people posting YouTube videos of songs every now and again, and even if I don't necessarily like the song I still love knowing it has such a profound impact on like-minded individuals, and I feel like I can get to know someone just a little bit better through their musical tastes...I'm still new to the world of traveling. And even though I've never really chatted with any of you aside from the few pen pals I'm making here, I still respect that a lot of you have freely given up a life of relative comfort, or are at least making the absolute best of a bad situation. I'm curious as to what sort of music drives you, and I'm even more eager to see what it does to me.
