Albums to fall asleep to

[julimp92]

Some records have such an intimacy that falling asleep to them is really easy and enjoyable , my fav one's are :

Coldplay - Parachutes
Sigur Rós - Takk

[bedofroses]

beck - sea change

[Redundancy]

Takk? :P idd say ( ) and Agaetis Byrjun but not Takk :P Takk is their happy album :nice: although whenever Andvari comes on yes i do fall asleep.. especially in the bus to uni :rolleyes: and i do agree with Parachutes.

[crazyduckette]

Sigur Ros is brilliant to fall asleep to and I dont mean that in a bad way, its so relaxing! My flatmate next door to me and sometimes he plays it loud enought that I can hear it.

[zeoir]

Yuup,

Sigur Rós - Takk
Beck - Sea Change

[Marisa]

I agree Sigur Ros= perfect. Also Parachutes works. But only at low volumes. Otherwise cranked up I can sing-a-long for hours.

Sorry I can't offer more. Those are seriously the only ones I have tried!

oh my god, for some reason i can't stand sigur ros when i'm trying to go to sleep. jack johnson either. my sister's worn them out for me. camera obscura's latest album's really good for that though. and feist.

Parachutes puts me to sleep when I need it to, and keeps me awake when I need it to.

i tried falling asleep with atghk playing but i was transfixed, lol there is no going to sleep for me when that album is on...the only exceptions are white lips kissed, louise louisa, but they're both at the end so the timing is perfect... :nice: their music is dreamy afterall :driftsaway:

[zeoir]

^^ Yeah, totally agreed

I've fallen asleep while listening to Frengers though!
There are some songs on atghk too, just like you mentioned; White Lips Kissed, Louise Louisa etc but most of them are just too..dunno..rock? maybe too loud compared to the others..(?)

[huntjd]

thats weird. i have a strange ability to fall asleep to rock. so screwed up. even muse can get me to sleep.

[vertigo caz]

[huntjd]

[Cirrus Minor]

It's almost impossible for me to fall asleep while I'm listening to music. It happened three times so far, and I was very very tired.

Two Pink Floyd albums : Wish You Were Here and The Division Bell.
And one Pink Floyd song (I fell asleep in the middle of the first track I had decided to listen to) : Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun

[Ivanneth]

when i'm going to sleep...i usually listen to soundtracks, like lately i've been listening to The Prestige soundtrack.
another one would be the LOTR soundtracks...cuz i'm a geek :cheesy:
