I'm making a CD with a lot of soothing, realaxing songs to help me sleep at night
Here's what I got:
Sigur Ros- Hoppipolla and Glosoli
Underoath- Smictague
Jack Johnson- Angel
Copeland- California
Evan Rachel Woods- Blackbird
Vitamin String Quartet- Some Will Seek Forgiveness(underoath cover)
Maylene&TSOD- The Day Hell Broke Loose at Sicard Hollow
The#12 Looks Like You- Empty Calm
Wilco- Hell Is chrome
Jeff buckley- Hallelujah
I could use some more Sigur Ros and string tribute songs. Also more like The #12 song and the Maylene song.
That would be great:-)

The 'Death Cab For Cutie' album, with 'Soul meets body', and 'I'll follow you into the dark'.... The Album name escapes me at the moment, but its wonderful for sleeping.
And anythin from 'Gregory and the Hawk'
they're amazing.
