I need to up the list on soothing songs. Songs that I can just close my eyes yo and drift asleep.

A prime example would probally be Hotel California- Eagles

Check out the album;

The Tired Sounds of Stars of the Lid by Stars of the Lid. Easily the best ambient stuff I've heard to cure myself to sleep.

Or anything by Current 93.

You probably won't like it seeing both bands aren't anything near The Eagles but whatever.

If you like Hotel California then you'll love Hotel California.

Relaxing music? I've always found early Bob Dylan, especially the album The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan, to be very relaxing.

Freak Me - Silk
Sexual Healing - Marvin Gaye
Back At One - Brian Mc'Knight
Four Seasons - Boys II Men

This piano rendition.

Try Disposition by Tool http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uiTtWnx_rjY

Try this one.

Try any explosions in the sky song. Look them up on youtube.

The album Music For Airports by Brian Eno. Very relaxing, calm, and cool. Try Ambient 1/1, that's my favorite.

tranquiity - incubus
fire flies - owl city

EDIT: any owl city song should make you feel better.

Anything by Augustana or Snow Patrol.

Classical music. Also metal.

When I can't sleep I usually listen to something like Loreena McKennitt. Her soft, exotic sound and beautiful haunting vocals are very soothing. Counting Crows is a more mainstream sound that is fairly mellow and nice to listen too.

Sometimes I am in Oldies mode and choose some of Elton John or Neil Diamond's softer songs or some of the old Folk music bands. I have to admit, some of the reason the oldies are soothing to me though, is that my mother often played her old 45's and LP's (records) for us when we couldn't get to sleep (though some of them weren't "oldies" back then ). So it might not have the same "soothing" effect to someone without the memory.

There y'are.

Yeah, nothing more soothing than 300bpm, overly distorted guitars, quick/heavy drumming topped off with some growling

Mr. Jones by the Counting Crows
Solsbury Hill- Peter Gabriel
After the Gold Rush by Neil Young
Only Love Can Break Your Heart by Neil Young
Have You Ever Seen the Rain- Creedence Clearwater Revival
Take it Easy- The Eagles
Do Ya- Electric Light Orchestra

What's this day of rest s**t? What's this bulls**t? I don't f**king care! It don't matter to Jesus! But you're not fooling me, man. You might fool the f**ks in the league office, but you don't fool Jesus. This bush league psyche-out stuff; laughable, man - Haha! I would have f**ked you in the a*s Saturday. I f**k you in the a*s next Wednesday instead. Woo! You got a date Wednesday, baby!

Kingdom of Rust - Doves is good. Very calm tbh.
Tonight - Hard Fi

Anything by "Dj Shadow"... well i find it soothing but je suis Etrange.

Exactly! That's why I picked the song.

Good choice. Marines > Code Red imo, but Sodom is Sodom.

Delicate by Damien Rice I think is very soothing.

Old song is old.

My second choice would be Nightwish - The Islander.

True, but old song is also insanely good.

Parabol by Tool.

In My Place - Coldplay.
The Scientist - Coldplay.
Clocks - Coldplay.
Judy in Disguise - John Fred & His Playboy Band.
Crimson & Clover - Tommy James & The Shondells.
A Whiter Shade of Pale - Procol Harum
Father and Son - Cat Stevens.

Save Tonight - Eagle Eye Cherry
A Horse With No Name - America
Mrs. Robinson - Simon & Garfunkel
Sultans of Swing - Dire Straits
Magic - Bruce Springsteen

That's a lot of songs by Coldplay - Coldplay

I have another suggestion which is COLDPLAY Love Pollution by COLDPLAY Feeder.

<3

H. is great too.

Well a lot of songs better than Code Red xD. Exhibition Bout is my favorite. But their songs ARE soothing to me

Anything by Jack Johnson or from Crosby Loggins' latest album (I got hooked by 'Seriously' )

I know it's from a game.

But it's very calm.

I FRIGGIN LOVE ACE COMBAT

I recommend these:(there's some language but it is extremely soothing and if I close my eyes I can just drift away)

Coldplay. Simple enough.

Instead of listening to coldplay you should listen to the original songs from the bands they steal songs from.

Coldplay always sounds to tame and dull .

I agree, but their new video is amazing.
The music is bad but the actual music video is so good.

Who cares if they stole one song? They still produced it brilliantly and they're still a bloody amazing band. I hate how people hate them because they stole a song. Listen to some of their older music.

Although, to stay on topic, any of the music from the Halo 3 Original Soundtrack is brilliant. Orchestral music, but still, it's amazing.

Anything by Cannibal Corpse is a must for easy listening.

Judging from the name, I highly doubt that.

Anything from Bucketheads albums: Electric Tears or Whitewash.
Whitewash itself is a beautiful song. Or Buckethead: Too Many Humans is a nice jazzy song.

OnYx

I've just watched it. Agreed.


Haha. There more for pumping you up for a football match .


Talking about jazz. It defiantly chills me out.

Charles Mingus and John Coltrane are worth noting for some groovy stuff.

band: panic at the disco
album: pretty odd

Steve Vai - Hand on Heart
Buckethead - Electric Tears, I Love My Parents
Annihilator - Sounds Good To Me
Boston - Livin' For You
Metallica - Nothing Else Matters
Megadeth - Promises (sad)
Tesla - What You Give

A great relaxing song is Washington Bullets by the Clash, except for the fact that the lyrics involve violent Latin American revolutions. yeeeeee...

Also, I find the song "Good Morning" by the Dandy Warhols to be very soothing when it's late at night. It's fairly heavy, but it's got this psychedelic touch that makes it a very surrealistic listen.
