music Your favorite songs to relax?

[Frostgage 7,972]

Music is incredible in that it can powerfully influence our emotions, but we also listen to certain kinds of music depending upon our current emotions. One of the most common functions of music is when people listen to songs in order to relax. What are some of your favorite songs that help you to feel at ease?

I'll begin with the one that I am listening to as I type this:

 

[Kyoshi Frost Wolf 40,289]

I have a bunch of these, music is a savior.

A couple of them are as follows.

Corpses; A Zombie Love Song by God Module

Probably one of the most relaxing songs for me in that genre.

Another one is one of my top favorite instrumentals.

As Luck Would Have It by Friend For A Foe

Those are two of many.

[Prospekt 10,984]

A few that particularly do this for me:

 

[Lucky Bolt 34,914]

There's a lot of songs that do it for me...the vast majority of them being country songs, including these four:

• Classical 
• Opera 
• Dark souls OST

To Relax? For me it's usually Ambient music. I really like ambient mixes on YouTube and Dark Ambient tracks.

I like ambience too! I like the FNAF World OST the best cause it ranges from relaxing to energizing so it helps to listen to it when I have stuff to do.

My favourite has to be anything from the Okami OST, especially this one,

 

Okami is such a good game and I highly recommend people to play it!!!

[Treeglow Flicker 13,030]

I listen to a lot of ambient video game music while relaxing and taking care of any easy going tasks. A couple of my favourite pieces to listen to are from Deus Ex Human Revolution.

[Dreambiscuit 8,024]

I like La Vie En Rose (Melissa Manchester), What A Wonderful World (Louis Armstrong), Alfie (Jack Jones), Whistling Away the Dark, Feed the Birds, Say A Prayer For Me Tonight (Julie Andrews), Smile (by Charlie Chaplin), Cheer Up, Charlie (from Willy Wonka), Magic (Olivia Newton-John), and My Love is Like the Red. Red rose (Pat Boone), to name a few. 

[DixonTheAdversary 1,631]

Some of the songs that help me relax are: Fortunes of War - Iron Maiden, There Stood the Fence - Toxik, and Shadows of the Past - Omega.

[ZiggWheelsManning 7,368]

Loads of the tracks mixed and connected by Sasha & John Digweed always do this and you listen to them for multiple hours.  Even the Communicate album delivers at any satisfying level.  

[Sophie 877]

I love chillstep, it's the perfect mixture of relaxing music and some drums and bass in it.

[Prospekt 10,984]

Separator by Radiohead comes to mind.

Me either, but it relaxes me anyhow 

Listing everything would be tedious, so I'm just going to list bands/artists instead that are soothing to me:

- Mike Shinoda

- Citizen Soldier

- Daughtery

- Deltarune OST

[outlaw_f0x 149]

any songs from john lennon’s later career. imagine, watching the wheels, beautiful boy, oh yoko, they’re all very comforting 

or basically anything by paul mccartney. also the tf2 soundtrack

This song helps me to relax! it's just sooo beautiful!

 

 

[daviddaviddavid 772]

This one always seems to do the trick. You don't have to be religious to appreciate it.

 

 

[J.J 918]

Ron pope but this is rare for me, and some country...

But this, her voice can literally bring me to tears, with the context of the movie it's even more ground shaking, she has the most beautiful voice I HAVE EVER heard, it's calming and emotional, idk how to describe it, I have a wide array of music tastes, some I personally know are bad... But this, this is what I consider true vocals, her voice is incredible, she's like a literal siren to me, and when you see the movie it's even more impactful than you could even imagine

Of massive eons and lightyears we feel lost, our emotions are at our lowest, when in doubt, tap to silence and create your own world.  When I thought about Digimon Tamers and 2 giant god-like Digimon clashing in heaven looking clouds before telling the human protagonists about a true enemy coming to wipe out all, this was playing on a once-trusted friend's radio.

First song that comes to mind is this gem by none other than my favorite band Pendulum, really does have a chill vibe to it.

I also tend to listen to some Liquid DNB and whatever's melodic.

 

[ComanderZhabikKlavik 934]

Dark music on piano and organ.

Classical music.

Ambient (Especially dark ambient)

Folk Music.

Wardruna - Lyfjaberg.
