ok, i don't know if this topic has already been posted
i think it has in the past but i'm not sure about recently..
anyways,

i was wondering if any of you guys knew any soft songs that i could fall asleep to

i listen to yiruma, but that's all i got.
something soft, maybe like a guitar or piano but without any voices.

much appreciated

thank you in advanced.

Classical music. Chopin's Nocturnes, Debussy's solo piano works, and most def. Grieg's stuff.

"But when it ends and while it ends, something comes, after so much rage, persistence, obstinacy, extravagance; something entirely unexpected and touching in its mildness and goodness. With the motif passed through many vicissitudes, which takes leave and so doing becomes itself entirely leave-taking, a parting wave and call, with this D G G occurs a slight change, it experiences a small melodic expansion. After an introductory C, it puts a C sharp before the D. . .and this added C Sharp is the most moving, consolatory, pathetically reconciling thing in the world. It is like having one's hair or cheek stroked, lovingly, understandingly, like a deep and silent farewell look. . . . " (Mann: 55).

I listen to Yiruma also, but I'd highly recommend the Pride and Prejudice 2005 Soundtrack, with extremely beautiful instrumentals.
Also, since this is a Korean forum, I can't not recommend the soundtrack to Spring Waltz, which has many astonishingly soothing instrumentals. ^^

Yiruma has a LOT of albums. I have 88 songs from 8 of his albums.. and I play those on repeat/shuffle all night long

Other than that...
Yo-Yo Ma has some good cello stuff..
X Japan has soft songs on the piano and guitar
etc.

i really like kind of sad/haunting instrumentals haha i know it sounds creepy. but theres this instrumental i found when i watched 28 weeks later...it's by John Murphy called IN A HEARTBEAT. i think it's really nice to listen to before you sleep even though it's not a very classic music type of sound. Another instrumental i used to listen to everyday before i go to sleep is S.E.N.S.- wish. or i think thats what it's called. it's from this japanese drama i watched a long time ago called "god please give me more time" it's great because theres a violin and a piano version and both of them are good.

^heres a link of the S.E.N.S. instrumental from a guy playing it on piano

LA DEE DA DA!

Some Techno/Trance music is also good for you to fall asleep to. The repetition should get you sleep if you're not dancing to it haha

Adagio for Strings - Tiesto
Another Way - Paul Van Dyk
Halcyon on and on or Belfast - Both by Orbital

I find Music Box albums really relaxing...I have BoA's music box album and i listen to it when i want to sleep.
As for instrumentals...I like utada hikaru's intrumentals.

String Quartet Tribute!!!

they release instrumental versions of several different artists and and bands
they've basically made tribute albums to any artist/band you can think of:
Alicia Keys, Weezer, Audioslave, Bright Eyes, 2pac, Fall Out Boy --- and a lot more
heres a list: click

my favorite so far is the tribute to the Red Hot Chili Pepers
-- ironically i dont even like that band but it sounds so pretty when it's instrumental!

And I wish that we had never talked,
Our hips said it all..
