sleepy-time songs?
ImRonBurgundy?:
i want to make a big playlist of songs to listen to while falling asleep, and while sleeping in the hopes that they might influence me to have nice dreams. i would like suggestions as to songs about sleep, dreams, or generally happy/dreamy-sounding songs. here's what i've got so far:
The Decemberists- "Here I Dreamt I Was an Architect"
the pillows- "My Girl"
Mike Park- "Counting Sheep"
The Postal Service- "Sleeping In"
Eels- "Woman Driving, Man Sleeping"
SNMNMNM- "Another Song Ray Hates!"
Eels- "3 Speed"
Mike Park- "Kiss Me Baby, I'm Always Here for You"
Slowreader- "Every Part of Nothing"
Sufjan Stevens- "Holland"
The Most Serene Republic- "In Places, Empty Spaces"
ee- "One Less Year"
the pillows- "Good Dreams"
Weezer- "Only in Dreams"
The Weakerthans- "My Favourite Chords"
Against Me!- "Eight Full Hours of Sleep"
Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra- "One Night"
Ben Folds- "The Luckiest"
The Aquabats!- "Hello, Goodnight!"
Modest Mouse- "Sleepwalkin'"
Field Fire:
I agree with The Decemberists, The Postal Service and Sufjan, but I generally prefer post-rock bands such as Sigur Ros, Godspeed You! Black Emperor and The Evpatoria Report to go to sleep to. Bright Eyes is also good.
E. Spaceman:
I think the Smiths' Asleep would fit in that list.
However my two preferred methods are Echo and the Bunnymen's entire "Ocean Rain" and philosophy audiobooks. Michel Foucalt's Culture of the Self gets me everytime. When I'm truly awake Ocean Rain is one of my favourite album but when I'm sleepy it gently craddles me. I,like Foucalt too but having a dude rant makes me go sleepy.
Praeserpium Machinarum:
I hear The Walkmen - Hang Siobhan before going to bed.
It just seems like that kind of song.

I have a playlist for sleeping. Its almost all post-rock. I agree particularly with Sigur Ros. Also, My Bloody Valentine is perfect right before bed.
