Calming songs
 

Listening to these two songs calms me down, and makes me feel happy. What songs have the same effect on you?

It's like Enya on soma. Personally, I find certain types of Buddhist chant to be calming, especially ones with a group of priests that have a deep resonating bass presence. Couldn't really find anything decent on YouTube to represent it. I'll keep looking.

Edit: This is what I'm talking about, although the audio isn't the best. With a good set of speakers and a CD, this type of thing is amazingly calming.


Edit 2:Looks like the type of chanting I'm talking about may be unique to the Tibetan monks.

What's soma? And were you referring to Leaves' Eyes when you said that? I was looking more in the way of music than chants, LOL.

Soma is the "brand name" of carisoprodol, a muscle relaxant. Yeah, that's what I was referring to. Enya on a muscle relaxant.

I suppose it depends on how one defines music. I tend to use the definition "an artistic form of auditory communication incorporating instrumental or vocal tones in a structured and continuous manner". Chant would be included in that.

<3 this is calming to mee~~~

In a sentimental mood - Duke Ellington + John Coltrane.
