Sleep music

[Shoeberto]

As much as I love Pink Floyd, they always have the tendency to put my to sleep as well.

Yeah, Dark Side is always good for going to sleep to. If I start playing it while trying to sleep, I don't often get past Us and Them.

[SeeDRankLou]

Enya easily puts me to sleep. There is also some techno stuff that does the trick.

[White Raven]

Yeah, I'd have to aggree that I fall asleep faster when I'm listening to Floyd. I personally prefer listening to Meddle...the only really loud part is when he's screeching the guitar at the end of Echoes, but I'm far gone by then.

Other than that, the best way to fall asleep is to take a hit right before you go to bed. (But don't forget to brush your teeth too!)

[Fuzakeru]

All thouse sound things with water or creek or river or whatever. They all sound to similar to someone taking a piss to put me to sleep. -_-; And the ones with birds only aggravate me and wish I had a gun to shoot them with.

Enya is good to sleep to and I've fallen asleep to Pink Floyd quite a few times. Good stuff. I like listening to the theme song from Braveheart. That always makes me feel calm and tired.

[escobert]

I've grown up being used to falling asleep to heavy metal and the smell of smoke.

[Loony BoB]

Here are the two playlists I use when trying to sleep (Instrumental2 more often, as I rarely feel like music with vocals when I sleep). Basically calm, quiet music. I also have a Dreamer list (and an Instrumental list) which includes some faster or more upbeat music, such as more Bon Jovi, Bryan Adams, Nightwish or something. But yeah, hooray. Instrumental2 is also great for when I have a nasty headache, like now.

[eestlinc]

personally i use final fantasy piano collections :-[ :-[ :-[

Haydn Horn concertos.

[Erased]

As long as I'm not playing it, Final Fantasy music is quite relaxing to go to sleep to. Usually I listen to some background TV, usually some anime I like. Hmm... Thinking about it makes me sleepy ^^ I need to find some way to wake up. Luckily I have my MP3 player handy, so it'll get better momentarilly.

[StarlightAngel]

I'm not allowed to listen to music while falling asleep, though I could fall asleep listening to any of my CDs easily.

[kikimm]

Hmm....most of the time, I can't fall asleep listening to music, if I'm really hyper, but the other day, it was 12:00 and I couldn't fall asleep, so I popped in the Lord of the Rings soundtrack, and played "May it Be" over and over again. That really helped. I think anything slow, would be good. Silverchair's "Diorama", I've found, is also a very good cd to fall asleep to.

[diddlydoo]

for me, it needs to be something pleasant that's not interesting enough to keep you awake. For example, if I listen to my favorite CD, I wouldn't be able to sleep because I'd be staying up listening to it. LOL. I suppose classical works pretty well or jazz.
