Hi there people, i like to listen to music with my mp3 before going to sleep, i love music so i listen it every time i can, and i like to stay in my bed with music in my ears. I like to listen to classic music because i think that is so relaxing, but there is a problem, if i fall asleep with music in my ears when i wake up in the morning i'm so tired and i feel so strange and heavy. And what about you? do you like to listen to music before sleeping? Thank you for your responses :) good mylot.

I sometimes do, it depends on my mood. I can go without listening to music for about 2-3 weeks and then all of sudden want to listen to it. I like settling down listening to it, as it can be very relaxing and that's something that I enjoy. I'm into most types of Rock music, I'm not a fan of much of this update stuff though as it's all get very cliche. Happy Mylotting

Yeah, I do. In fact, I always sleep on my cellfone's headset every night. And when I wake up, I'm out of batt. Soft music rest my mind and it brings me to deep sleep as if my mom's singing lullabye for me.

I have the Christian music station going on all night long. I find it comforting and relaxing. It doesn't affect my sleep at all. I first started it to help drown out my husbands snoring, and we've been doing it for several years.

Yes, I made playlist called "slow", it's a compilation of slow or mid tempo songs that is very easy listening and can make me fall asleep. Songs like Dido white Flag, toni braxton i don't want to, enya, babyface included on it. I usually turn off the speaker if I really really sleepy, although sometimes I forgot to do it :)

Me too... Listening my favorite music before slepping is the best way to get a nice dream while sleeping!

yes, but i do my listening the traditional way -- soft and not through earphones. also, i make use of the timer, so that it goes off even if i go into slumber. you know, music soothes the soul and irons out the heart. it relaxes while one is trying to get sleep and makes the process faster...

Yes I like listening to music before I sleep. I'll listen to music with my ear phones on and when I get sleepy, that's the time that I take it off and continue to sleep.

I've had the same clock/radio at my bedside for at least two decades plus! And it is very rare that I go to sleep without turning it on to lull to sleep. :o)

I do not like listening to music while sleeping. if I turn on music, will be free. because I'm a very easy to sleep. each time I was in bed, I would be asleep quickly.

Yes, I do. In fact, at night when I am working on my laptop, I will play some light music in the background while I surf the Net. It makes me feel relax. When I am done, it is usually bed-time. However, I won't listen to music while lying on bed.

I used to try to listen to music before going to sleep, but I found that I would get distracted by the music and not be able to fall asleep very easily. Then if I did manage to fall asleep, I would wake up in the middle of the night to it and have to turn it off. You might be tired when you wake up because your mind isn't completely resting due to the music.

I do sometimes, but I haven't in a while. When I can't sleep, I'll put on my headphones and listen to music for a while.

MUSIC - it is for listening to at any time of the day or night. At all times it is music that makes you really happy.

I will listen before I go to sleep and sometimes not too often I will have a headset on when I am sleeping, but usually I will put on some tunes on my computer and listen to them while me and my significant other are sleeping she insists that she can't sleep without the music on, and since it is my music that we are listening to i don't have a problem with it and it has become so much a part of the sleep ritual now that it doesn't bother me at all and I actually like listening to the music when it is time to go to sleep and as long as it is my favorite tunes that we are listening to it is all good.

Yes , I do listen 1-2 songs every day before I sleep. I love the song " Shining in the setting sun like -----------, come and feel me" such a lovely feeling in this song. I am into deep feel while listening this song. After listening this song I sleep very easily. I think we all like to listen songs but they change as per our age. While we were kids mom used to sing songs to make us sleep and now we are listening romantic songs to get to sleep.

hi codris! just like you i really enjoy listening to music before finally going to sleep, although i prefer New Age music when i do that coz this type of music relaxes and calms my inner being. regarding the stress that you feel after waking up the next day, i think it has something to do with the type of music that you listened to, or the sleeping position that you had when you finally dozed off.
