[Jim Bowie]

The beginning part to Bach's Cello Suite 1 in G major. For some reason, whenever I hear it, a wave of total tranquility just shoots over me.

Anyone else have comforting sounds?

 

[Tarazet]

Before I opened this thread, I was going to say exactly the same thing. Freaky.

 

[Doth Togo]

The sound of breathing by the girl I love as she sleeps curled up on my shoulder.

 

[olimario]

THIS MAY SOUND ODD
But I sleep better if I'm in a house by a major street.
If you want to add comfort, give me the sound of a train a couple miles away.

 

[Lucky Forward]

Ever since I was a kid, I've always found the faraway drone of a small airplane high overhead on a quiet day to be very tranquil and relaxing.

Me too! It takes forever to sleep in silence, because then I pick out little things (a clock ticking, breathing, air conditioners) and I can't get to sleep.

Sonnarat: :ROCK:

 

[Jotaro]

The fans of my k1ck455 1337 PC, of course. And my Xbox with the Samsung DVD-Rom, the Philips was too loud.

Seriously, I like the sound of my washing machine in the background, some kind of background noise like this is really comforting.

 

[MIMIC]

Somebody softly thumbing a comb. :lol

Every time I hear it, a shockwave of sensuous goose bumps travel throughout my body.

Am I weird or what?

I have a fan which I always run when I'm trying to sleep, but the sympathetic vibrations with my electric piano's wood is starting to bug me, not to mention dull my hearing. Even though it has lost its relaxing power, though, it takes me twice as long to fall asleep without it. I should probably get a different fan, or find a better location for that one...

 

[bjork]

The second disc of the Sweet Robots Against the Machine cd with nothing but jungle noises.

I put that on, lights out.

Not weird at all, I feel a lot more comfortable going to sleep at night with the background hum of traffic, of the city. I feel very restless down the country where it's just utter silence.

 

[Shompola]

rain.
some kind of white noise.
big slow moving fans are relaxing too.

 

[open_mouth_]

The sound of a girl moaning/groaning (in a good way!) because of you.

 

[Tuvoc]

The sound of one of my farts in the shower and birds chirping when I wake up.

 

[Justin Bailey]

Rain on a rooftop while I'm inside.

 

[Pedigree Chum]

xylophone, i love when its used in tracks.

 

[Phoenix]

The sound of my baby's heartbeat from the ultrasounds...

I seem to fall asleep alot easier when the AC's on. My room's right next to the AC unit and that whoosing-noise has always comforted me. Rain and thunder, to me, sound especially relaxing. My ex insisted on having a fan on when she was trying to sleep and that one kind of grew on me as well. Any kind of wind-type noise I suppose. Sometimes I find having a TV on at a real low volume kind of relaxes me when I'm trying to take a nap, that or a little light classical music...

 

[MaverickX9]

The vocal stylings of Frank Sinatra. Especially his early stuff with the Tommy Dorsey band.

 

[Deleted member 1235]

Rain on the roof when waking up before I have to get up on a weekend, like waking up at 4 am and hearing it, it's like "Oh yeah, back to sweet sweet sleep"

 

[demon]

The sound of walking through dead leaves. I just find it soothing for some reason, and it reminds me of my favorite time of year (when it's nice out at least).
