i like listening to beatles,coldplay, oasis. i like britpop. [dvirtualist]
ohhh my hubby likes coldplay... [Nhey16]
This is pretty common but classic love songs can make me relax. This is quite unusual to me because my musical preference is Death Metal. I eat and breathe Death Metal. I do get tired of it sometimes so i opted to listen to classic love songs. I mean i love Death Metal but i'm flexible and not bias to anything about music. If my friends love country music, it's fine with me. [modstar]
actually, im trying, coz i have to adjust with my husband :) i will try to listen to your suggestions... :) [Nhey16]
Well, as long as it has a mellow beat... that would surely relax me... i also love Enya... and i had a cassette tape collection of her albums... but i left them all at my mother's house because we do not have a cassette player... i hope i can get the cd version soon... [aseretdd]
oh yeah, i hope you could get the cd versions... really nice to listen to Enya... [Nhey16]
I enjoy Spanish songs, especially from artists like Alacranes Musical, Toby Love, Frankie J, and Kumbia Kings. It really relaxes me and just calms me down if I am feeling really frustrated. I also LOVE Jagged Edge, as they also relax me. [texasheartland]
That is definitely one of my favorite songs! [texasheartland]
Congrats on reaching 1,000! I too listen to music to calm my jittery nerves and to aid me in sleeping. I especially like Enya's music and since 1989, I have been a big fan of her music. Quite disappointed though with her previous album, Amarantine, and the this year's Christmas album. When I want to console myself or want to relax, Enya's music never fails. Of course, other artists worth mentioning are Dean Evenson (for pioneering Sound Healing), Cocteau Twins (pioneers of ambient/dream pop, Kitaro (popular for his movie soundtracks), Jim Chapel (piano music), among others. Glad to share them with you! Have a stress-free day! [fotzepolitic]
oh thank you fotzepolitic :) i would check those that you mentioned, i'm sure i would like them... :) [Nhey16]
i think classical music will really get you to relax. i'm actually not a big fan of classical music, but whenever i hear on, it really gets me to relax because of the soft melodious tune. the sound of harps also does the job [jedimind]
oh yeah, i also agree with you, classical music relaxes me too... [Nhey16]
Many genres of music soothes me. I have a love for rnb and slow jams, they are really relaxing. I love coldplay though, claude kelly, israel, git fresh and many other artists. Songs which are only instrumental are also soothing. The piano songs which only involve an instrument are good as well. [itrungs]
oh yeah, piano instrumental are also soothing :) [Nhey16]
I like the popular music in my country,especially the emotional songs,though sometimes it makes me feel sad,but for me I think it is also one kind of beauty to feel sad and get hurt by the girl I love,Some songs just push me in the mood of thinking the good old days I have been with her before. [jzjqdkd]
I have to say yes,it does remind me of her. Because sometimes it is really uncontrollable to think of her,maybe I need time to dilute this memory,but right now, I can't ,I don't know why I love her so much.Maybe it is an experience I have to come across in my life.Happy thanksgiving day,my friend. [jzjqdkd]

i guess a lot of people would really be relaxed when they listen to soft mellow music... and i agree with you, there's no life without music. i havent known anyone who doesnt like music... :) [Nhey16]
Depends on what has happened so sometimes it will be light music, others really rock music to soothe me and to calm me down [Anne18]
really, rock music calms you... that's great. whenever i listen to rock music, it always makes me hyper... :) [Nhey16]
I see you're an Enya fan too. I just love listening to her music, and most celtic or new age types as well. I also love listening to classical music for relaxation. When I'm in the opposite mood and want something upbeat though, and listen lots of times while cleaning, I'll listen to rock music..like Coldplay [pyewacket]
hello pyewacket... enya and celts music are really relaxing :) i like Coldplay's Yellow and Scientist... [Nhey16]
i like sofe jazz any sort music that helps me to relax i do like reggae a lot but so much as to use it to relax. [eddie42]
when i hear jazz, it makes me sleepy, so i guess, jazz is really soothing... :) [Nhey16]
When I really need peace and quiet then Il Divo. But other times I like anykind of music I can sing to lol I cant stand the music I cant understand what they are saying and I cant sing to them :)) [mojcica]
oh yeah, Il Divo, they are great, I do listen to them sometimes...:) [Nhey16]
Any soft rock music calms me down (example would be Hey There Delilah). I don't mind the harder stuff much either as long as they have cool solos.=P Listening to an amazing guitar keeps my mind away from any troubles I may have. No idea why. xD [Zezlol]
wow... so you're a rocker... it's really great to listen to our favorite music whenever we want inner peace... :) [Nhey16]
Hi Nhey To relax i prefers to listen to one of the following songs: Led Zeppelin - Stairway To Heaven - start quite and continue temperamental. Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here and more like that, I will send you some link in PM [zeevfld]
hello zeevfld, i do listen to those songs sometimes... :) i like them too... [Nhey16]
Songs by Mayday Parade. They're loud but I like the rhythm for some reason, it helps me relax. Come to think about it, that's a pretty weird choice I guess. But I have a hard time doing other things while listening to them because I tend to listen the lyrics and end up listening more than working. Thanks for the comment on my discussion! [oyenkai]
Really, you like loud music. My husband likes to listen to loud music, and sometimes I wonder how he can relax when he listens to them. At least now I know, he's not the only one listening to loud music... :) thanks and have a great day oyenkai :) [Nhey16]
I love listening to Christmas carols or even the songs from the 40's to 50's like frank santra and Ella. Sometime Religious Music helps me. [teapotmommommerced]
ohh Christmas songs are very nice to hear especially now that Christmas season is coming.... :) [Nhey16]
I like to listen soft melody songs and romantic also [dio123]
hello dio123... soft and romantic songs are so soothing and it relaxes ones mind... :) [Nhey16]
I prefer to listen melodious songs mostly though I love to listen almost all types of music from hip hop to pop, reggae etc, but when I want to relax I choose only melody [dio123]
I like Oldies mostly and no jazzy stuff just soft melodious soothing music. I like the sound of water flowing in the river too and I have realised it helps me to meditate too. I have been looking for a good meditation music but they lak that sound which I look for, If you come across some good meditation music I would love to check it out. [mansha]
Do you have any link where I can get hold of that, do suggest [mansha]
Soft rock mellows me out... I'd put Better than Ezra's "Before the Robots" album on and I'd be swaying and singing to songs like "A Lifetime", "Daylight" and "Breathless" in no time. What I get from these "soft rock" tunes is that they're slow but I can still feel the rhythm with 'em -- very calming, indeed. :D [dana820]
Hello Nhey16, If I want to listen to songs that can soothe me while relaxing my mind, I will choose Demi Roussos or Josh Groban. Sometimes I love to listen to Kitaro too. [gr8life]
Hello gr8life, I love to listen to Josh Groban, too... :) [Nhey16]
Well, I do love music. I even bought myself a good sound surround system to enjoy. But basically my best choice for relaxation would be classical music. Those that are instrumental most especially with emphasis on violins. I really do not know why, but the moment I hear it, I really feel relaxed.happy [jpso138]
wow, having a surround sound system while relaxing, that's great. Wish I could have one, too... :) [Nhey16]
Hi Nhey, I enjoy listening to songs when surfing net, reading or doing house chores. I feel easy and pleasant when listening to gay melodies at the same time. It is quite convenient to have songs on air 24 hours after turning on the radio broadcast. I love all kinds of melodious songs. No matter they are oldies, modern songs or classic songs. I mostly listen to English, Chinese and Cantonese songs. Both Celine Dion and Gwen Stefani are my favorite singers. Happy happy posting and take care. [lkbooi]
Hello Ikbooi, I also like Celine Dion, she has a very great voice... :) [Nhey16]
frank sinatra's moon river. hehe. [randiss]
I always remember when I was a kid when I listen to songs like Moon River :) [Nhey16]
Hi Nhey, I always love to hear melody songs. My work schedule will be always much busy with customers and for my relaxation, i always hear melody songs. Melodies cool me highly and relieve all my tensions. Mostly i hear melodies of my regional language which is tamil. other than that, i hear last christmas, where do you go? songs atleast 5 times a day and i often hear some selected songs of usher & eminem. [raghul77ster]
hello raghul77ster, it's really nice to listen to music that we love so as to relieve our tensions. are a fan of usher and eminem? :) [Nhey16]
Enya's songs are nice. I also like Sara Brightman's songs and they are also very relaxing and sounds like a voice from the angel. I love China [youless]
Hmm, as I can't get your choice of songs, I think you will not understand my choice. Here it goes: I like Sonu Nigam, Shreya Ghosal and Lata Mangeskar's song which soothes me very much. The song these artists have sung are so soft that I forget every moment of my sadness! Thanks for asking. [sanuanu]
