Which album?

Coldplay has come out on top as the music artist easiest to fall asleep to, followed by James Blunt, Snow Patrol, Take That and Snorah Jones.

So, I am going to extend this a little, which artist and album can help you fall asleep?

Top of my list would be:-

Jeff Buckley - Grace (Although "Eternal Life" would wake me with a start!)
Ed Keupper - Serene Machine
Cheers,
Anne

Celine Dion ;Nana Mouskouri ;Barry Manilow ; the list is endless - you really have opened a can of worms here, Esie :shock:

Anything by Marillion after Fish left. Honestly, I got told to be quiet at one of their gigs and left the after show party because it was lame :shock:

Oh, and I once had an alarm clock that played cassettes - and slept through 45 mins of Gothic Slam at full volume. This may have been due to excess ale the night before though :roll:

In all seriousness I used to have to listen to music to get to sleep!

Deep Forest's stuff was/is very relaxing for me.

Great call on Jeff Buckley's - Grace though. I LOVE that album.
