Lately I've noticed that my music collection consists of 90% aggressive punk and metal songs, with the remaining 9.9% being ska. Which is fine, but sometimes when I'm feeling in a really relaxed mood I want to listen to something that doesn't make me want to get up and RAAAAGEEE !!!! or dance.

So anyways, any recommendations? No particular genre, just songs/bands that in your opinion sound relaxed.

Despite me not being particular I figured I should probably post a few songs that would probably fit in my description.




However if the song/band you have in mind doesn't sound like this, but you think still fits my description, feel free to post!

Seabound.

This song is called Torn. I dunno if it's as relaxed as you'd like, but it's a good band regardless, and pretty relaxed compared to everything else I listen to, haha. (I'm a 'classic' metal fan)

Let me know if you want me to list some other good songs.

Anything by Neil Young. Particularly these two songs.





Seriously the ugliest singer I can think of, but his music is beyond beautiful. Canada did a few things right.

This ones not necessarily happy, but nonetheless beautiful.



Michael Hedges. In my opinion the greatest guitarist of all time.






(This video is really haunting since he died in a car accident a few years later)

The last one is a cover someone did of a Fionn Regan song. I actually think it's better than the original.

Mozart!

Mahler! Holst! hell, Beethoven!

not a big fan of Mozart, aside from his clarinet concerto, but I have to like that by default since I play clarinet.

Specific recommendations for relaxing... well, the Mozart clarinet concerto, second movement, is really beautiful, Mahler's symphony 5, mvt. 4 is good, as well as the 5th movement. Holst, listen to the entire "The Planets" suite, it's really good.

It'll be a bit different from fast rock/metal, though!

and there's always Still Alive.
