“And the hits just keep on coming”… Global Connections, Inc. (GCI) has shared Global Discovery Vacations members favorite road trip play lists that range from classics to indie rock.
According to Corey Thibodeaux, online content manager for GCI, “Music is one of those art forms that permeates every aspect of our lives from entertainment to exercise to ambiance. And travel is no stranger to music, with many artists drawing inspirations from their time on the road or in memories of home. We started sharing some of our staff favorites and members were inspired to send in their own favorites. We rewarded some of our member contributions with a set of Global head phones.”
A globális zenei válogatások között szerepelt Willie Nelson „On the Road Again”, az Allman Brothers „Ramblin' Man”, a The Proclaimers „I'm Gonna Be” (500 Miles), Lyndsay Buckingham „Holiday Road” és Johnny Cash „I” című száma ve Been Everywhere”, hogy néhányat említsünk.
Other suggestions from the Global staff for great tunes to hit the road were: Red Hot Chile Peppers – “Around the World,” OneRepublic’s “Good Life,” Lissie’s “Wild West” and Mumford and Sons’ “Hopeless Wanderer.”
“Our entries were all over the map, figuratively and literally,” said Corey. “Global member’s play lists included artists such as Lenny Kravitz, Jimmy Buffet, Don Williams, The Beach Boys and Alice Cooper. Quite eclectic!”
Member engagement contests and social media participation are sources of pride for GCI. The musical suggestions sent by members were filled with their enthusiasm for vacationing and traveling with Global. The social media team was flooded with messages such as these throughout the Road Trip Play List promotion:
„A közelmúltban egy háromnapos kiránduláson Alice Cooper, Kiss, Rob Zombie és a The Doors játszott, hogy eligazodjanak a két sávban teherautók, más autók és gyönyörű tájak Michigantől Texasig.”

A Zac Brown Band dalai arra késztetnek, hogy a tengerpartra menjek a Global Discovery Vacations-szal:
Bárcsak térdig a vízben lennék valahol!
Megvan a kék ég, a szellő a hajamba fújja a szél, a világon csak az aggaszt, hogy a dagály eléri a székemet.
Tartózkodó vakáción,
Az óceán az egyetlen gyógyszerem
Bárcsak az állapotom soha nem múlik el.
Csak olyan helyekre utazom, ahol víz van. Októberben Cape Cod felé tart a GDV-vel.
– Laura K.
„Nagy családunkkal a legtöbb Global Discovery Vacations úti célhoz autóval utazunk. Néhány kedvencünk a „Can't Stop the Feeling”, „Shake It Off”, „Lost Boy”, „Girls Just Want to Have Fun”. Felkészítenek minket a szórakozásra!”
– Dean R.
“Our members are a great bunch of people and we love finding out more about who they are, what they like doing on vacation and what they listen to,” says Corey. The Play List promotion was one of our more popular events and we’ll add this to our list of ongoing programs.”
