30 Days Of Music - Day 10

Day 10 - A song that makes you fall asleep

I have a thirty minute playlist that I listen to every night. Usually fall asleep about 25 minutes in. Here's a couple of my favourites off that playlist.

one

State Of Grace (Acoustic) by Taylor Swift. The acoustic version is much more visceral than the original. Maybe it's because I've always preferred piano and guitar over other instruments, maybe it's that this is more soothing than the original, I don't know. But every time someone gives me odd looks for meing a Swiftie, this is one of the first songs I think of.

Lullabye For A Stormy Night by Vienna Teng. It shows rain as something to be afraid of, which I don't agree with, rain is gorgeous, but it's a lovely song. It's very... floaty - I feel weightless when I listen to it.

This one night, I was studying for an exam that was the next day, and it started pouring. I figured it was the best occasion to listen to this song. It was pretty good, that night. Peaceful. I didn't feel like i was in the middle of exams. Maybe that's why I usually fall asleep about when this song plays.
