Songs that soothe you
 

Hi! I'm brand new here :)
I tend to use music to calm me down whenever I'm not doing well and I was curious what are some of your go-to songs that seem to help you, whether it feels cathartic, calming, upbeat, whatever as long as you get lost in it!

Currently, my song on repeat is: Beirut-Mimizan

Hi, welcome to RYL. :-)

I mostly only really listen to Linkin Park and Muse and a lot of their stuff can be upsetting. Plus I find that it depends what kind of mood I'm in how a song will affect me sometimes.

Invincible by Muse is my favourite positive song.

Also like Battle Symphony - Linkin Park.

Pressure - Muse is quite fun.

Knights of Cydonia - Muse.

Old songs from my teenage years like In Too Deep - Sum 41.

I.O.U - Mike Shinoda.

people seem to find it strange that I listen to death metal to relax

I find them strange so **** them :-p

Welcome :) Same jeans now-The view, good memories :)

I'm definitely putting muse on my playlist.

Any music by Passenger. He is amazing

Alibi by 30 seconds to mars is a soothing and beautiful song, i think :-)

Also, I'm not really one for music videos but I like to watch and listen to Waiting For The End by Linkin Park.

i also love all of the soothing soundtracks on youtube, i could listen to the live relaxation and study playlists all day. it is so soothing

Aaaand. The acoustic gospel version of Dig Down by Muse.

Welsh Male Voice Choirs sooth me. I have an album on my phone of one of the choirs in my next village and an few albums of an choir that is based in a different village but still within my county. I dare you to have a listen to a welsh male Voice choir.

Here's an example. Be warned that if you do go looking for other tracks by the same choir (all freely available on YouTube) that there's a song which features Rolf Harris. Depending on your pov it's something people may wish to avoid.

You've got a friend- Carole King.

I've been singing this song recently and it's made me feel a lot better!
