Some people have those 'The bedtime' playlists to help them fall asleep, some people use the radio to go to sleep, some people use relaxing outdoorish music. So, what are the songs you listen to, to help you fall asleep? There are just some songs that rest your mind and carry you off to dreamland. I'd like to see what everyone's music is.
Discuss and post your songs!

YouTube - Arcade Fire - Neighborhood #1 - (Tunnels )

 

[OctoberSkye]

Songs off the Amelie soundtrack, especially this one. I just put it on and drift away.

YouTube - Comptine d'un autre ete : L'apres midi (Planet Earth Video)

 

[L'Empereur]

R&B and Classical music

 

[pinkrasputin]

This is the only music I could ever fall asleep to. This is tribal music by the Ugandan Ndere Troope, played on the mbira. It continues to be the most beautiful lulaby that I've ever heard. I made this video with clippings of where I do my trail runs just so I could put it on Youtube. But this music is mystical to me and puts me in the most incredible relaxed state. That's saying a lot coming from this ADHD ENFP with PTSD.

Sarah McLachlan, Cat Power, Hope Sandoval and the Warm Inventions, Iron & Wine, Damien Rice, The Swell Season, Azure Ray... And lots more. I have a long sleeping playlist. I also enjoy these artists when I am wide awake too.

[Darkestblue]

YouTube - Good night / Namie Amuro (Translated Lyrics)

This song. Not only is it pretty relaxing and the title appropriate, but it has high sentimental value to me. It's no coincidence my username has "amuro" in it.roud:

Usually I will throw in the entire Plans album by Death Cab for Cutie, which I consider the most beautiful music ever written.

YouTube - Death Cab For Cutie - Brothers On A Hotel Bed

 

[Darkestblue]

speaking of death cab
YouTube - 10. Death Cab For Cutie - Line Of Best Fit
I've listened to this song a number of times right before going to bed.

 

[Black Rabbit]

MF Doom - Elder Blossoms

YouTube - MF Doom - Elder Blossoms

It'll take a few seconds before it starts. I think my favorite part of this song is the intro. There's just something intelligent and classy about it.

 

[IcePick]

I listen to this when I have a difficult time sleeping.

Relaxing music, sleep-aids, anxiety reduction, relaxation tools

 

[MisaTange]

YouTube - Clannad ED - Dango Daikazoku [Eng Sub]
Seems like a lullaby and have that emotional feel to it, which is good since the anime is a fine mixture of drama, romance and comedy.

 

[Jojo]

YouTube - Silent All These Years - Tori Amos

 

[Drewbie]

YouTube - THE AGONIST - and Their Eulogies Sang Me to Sleep (OFFICIAL)

... And their eulogies sang me to sleep. It's a lullaby! Obviously you're supposed to sleep to it, that's even in the song title. :tongue:
Seriously, that album is my favorite to nap to.
