Sleepy time music

Before going to sleep every night, I have a habit of lighting a candle and listening to some music, and I find myself coming back to certain songs a lot. Does anyone else have some favourite songs to listen to before going to sleep? Time to share!

Spoiler: my list contains a LOT of moumoon.

* moumoon - memento



This is my #1 sleepy time song. So calming. That cello! Listening to this song is like slowly sinking into cotton. This calms me like nothing else.

Also, the fact that it leads into Everyday and LOVE before we DIE, both also brilliant sleepy time songs which form a perfect trio with memento, makes it even better.

* moumoon - Uta wo Utaou
* moumoon - I found love.

Another perfect combo, this time from No Night Land. I found love. is a particular favourite of mine: so soft, so classy, beautiful vocals.

* moumoon - Aoi Tsuki to Ambivalence na Ai
* moumoon - Come Back To Me (m-flo cover)

* Miu Sakamoto - The Other Side of Love
* Miu Sakamoto - The letter after the wound
* Miu Sakamoto - in aquascape

I have to mention: the whole first disc of Miu's best-of album, miusic ~The best of 1997-2012~, is perfect when settling down to sleep.

* Ayu - Sweet scar
* Ayu - fated

* Do As Infinity - Hajimari no Basho
* Do As Infinity - Tangerine Dream ~10th anniversary~
* Do As Infinity - Desire ~Dive At It Limited Live 2013~

* Hikaru Utada - Passion ~after the battle~

* yanaginagi - Suzu no Tsunagime
* yanaginagi - Hoshiakari no Gaitou

These two tracks are dark and more than a little ominous, but they work for me. Hoshiakari no Gaitou is quite hypnotic.

* yanaginagi - Swallowtail Butterfly ~Ai no Uta~

* CLAZZIQUAI PROJECT - Still I'm By Your Side

* Mami Kawada - u/n

* globe - DEPARTURES (ARRIVAL version)

The instrumental of Sakura Nagashi by Utada Hikaru is my white noise for when I try to fall asleep. Always works.

There was a time I used to listen to Faye Wong´s album Sky every time before going to sleep. Amazing album for "a night meditation"
