Soundtracks you sleep to?


Sleep is an interesting topic, and my occupation. I find music can be a great tool to help one fall to sleep. With that being said, are there any film scores you fall asleep to?

- Eraserhead
- Star Trek TMP
- Alien


English isn't my 1st language. I'm sorry for any mistakes in grammar, spelling...

I'm glad I'm not the only one who sleeps to the Alien soundtrack, despite its ominous nature. The Howard Hanson track at the end is superb.

- WALL - E
- The Kings Speech
- Lincoln

Keep Calm and Cary Grant

Last night I tried to fall asleep to Jerry Goldsmith's Rambo: First Blood-Part II, but it didn't work; there are a lot of "stings" when Rambo does his killings that popped out from near silence and kept waking me up lol. Thankfully, when we get to the helicopter fight and the 2/3 motif when Rambo unleashes unholy hell on the Vietnamese POW camp via Huey with .50 cal machine guns and a seemingly endless barrage of missiles, the music, ragingly violent as it is, has a rythm that I find cathartically soothing, and all is made right when we get to "Peace in Our Life" sung by Frank Stallone.

Yeah, I like Alien a lot. Clunk clunk clunk...

I also enjoy John Williams' Star Wars scores, particularly The Empire Strikes Back. There's a lot of music on Dagobah when we meet Yoda that is very soothing to the subconscious and Han and Leia's love theme is very passionate, which fills my unconscious mind with warm emotional color. And then there's the militaristic Imperial March, which fills my dreams with "UNLIMITED POWER!".
