Soft songs to keep you relaxed?


does anyone know of any soft chilled songs to relax you preferably r&b or blues. something with a rythem like John mayer gravity. Or any other. I just need songs to keep me calm every now and then.

If its blues you dig, I find Lightnin' Hopkins to be relaxing!

You might think them passe, ( old) but try some James Taylor, songs like "Sweet Baby James" "Carolina in My Mind" and "Fire and Rain." They are classics, and he is a fantastic writer-musician. Very calming, but not boring, believe me.

Pick up a Keb Mo CD, let me suggest one of his first 2
Keb Mo or Just like you

Little Wing my Hendrix is amazing, a long soulful guitar solo. Another one is Have You ever Loved a Woman by Eric Clapton.

I would recommend these songs, I find them very relaxing:

"Riviera Paradise" - Stevie Ray Vaughan
"Hummingbird" - B.B. King
"Rainy Night in Georgia" - Lou Rawls
"Are you going with me?" - Pat Metheney
"Just to Keep You Satisfied" - Marvyn Gaye

i have read that "silent night" could...

Blues music to keep you calm? I love blues but I never thought of it as a music to relax to. I'm not familiar with Mayers Gravity but I love his Try live CD.
R&B maybe. How about Minnie Ripertons Perfect Angel CD. How about Al Greens Lets Stay Together song?
The genre to relax to is Christian music. That can really lift your spirit in a big way.
