Default Looking for songs about going home/seeing family

Hey guys!

I'll be returning home from a verrryyyy long trip soon...can't say when, don't wanna give away any secrets!

My family has no idea when I am coming home, so I am going to surprise them in different ways and try to film each one. I'm looking for a song that would go nicely in the background of the video, preferably something about coming home or reuniting with family and friends. I'm thinking along the lines of Home by Edward Sharpe & TMZ, Rivers & Roads by The Head and the Heart, or Welcome Home, Son by Radical Face.

I've been recommended some songs so far, but none of them have quite hit the spot because they're a little too slow, off topic, or an acquired taste. Here's the list so there aren't any repeats:

Comin' Home - City & Colour
Up the Wolves - The Mountain Goats
Coming Home, Baby - Sweewif
Home - Johnnyswim
I'm Going Home - Alice Cooper
Mama, I'm Coming Home - Ozzy Osbourne
I'm Coming Home - J. Cole ft. Skylar Grey
Home Sweet Home - Motley Crue

All great songs on their own, just not what I am looking for the video.

If you have any ideas or suggestions, I'd love to hear 'em!

Thanks in advance

Nice name.

Hey, no judgments here! We've all been guilty of placing too much trust in our own farts from time to time.

^^I suppose that this one might be a bit slow as well
