Once in while, the CNN Travel braintrust blows it -- make that all the time if you happen to be @cnnalwaysblowsit47.
Such was the case last year when we published our updated list of the greatest travel songs ever recorded. Sure, we included a few unassailable classics about life on the travel trail.
Even @cnnisamoron231 couldn't rage against our inclusion of Willie Nelson's all-time sing-a-long "On the Road Again."
But we have to admit, once in a while, @iloathecnn and @cnntroll99 have valid points to make.
How exactly did we miss such obvious wanderlust ditties as the Allman Brothers Bands' "Ramblin' Man" and Kris Kristofferson's "Me and Bobby McGee"?

I was surprised that “Travelin Man” by Ricky Nelson was on the list. It should have been but surprised that it was.

Don’t forget his “Lost Planet Airmen”.
That one has been done by a lot of people but Commander Cody’s was probably the best.

Nelson Riddle’s theme song for the TV series “Route 66” was really good. I don’t know if there are any words to the tune.
