Kiss Me by Ed Sheeran

While I think that all of Ed Sheeran’s songs would be perfect songs for your sleeping playlist, I chose "Kiss Me" for its acoustic feel and mellow vocals. Sheeran almost whispers his lyrics, which is the perfect tone to fall asleep to. When I listen to this song, I feel as if the music is falling over me like a blanket.

Skinny Love by Birdy

Birdy has such an incredible and unique voice, which she lends to this cover of the Bon Iver song. Her voice is soft and mellow, which is perfect to calm your mind as you lie in bed. The piano supporting her voice only adds to the charm of this song for your sleeping playlist.

I’ll Follow You by Jon McLaughlin

Similar to Birdy’s song, "I’ll Follow You" by Jon McLaughlin offers such an incredible piano accompaniment. Pair that with McLaughlin’s voice and you have a winner for your sleeping playlist. I have always been in love with McLaughlin, but his usually upbeat music was never the right fit for my sleep playlist. "I’ll Follow You" combines the best lyrics, vocals, and instruments to help you drift off to sleep

Wanted by Hunter Hayes

If you want more of a country feel in the songs for your sleeping playlist, check out "Wanted" by Hunter Hayes. It is soft enough to fall asleep to, but still has that country feel that so many upbeat songs offer. Hayes has such a unique voice and his lyrics only add to his already impressive songs. I guarantee if you listen to this song as you fall asleep, you will be snuggled up in bed by the end of the song.

Radio by Lana Del Rey

itunes.apple.com

Lana Del Rey’s soulful voice is the perfect sound to drift off to sleep to. "Radio" is a slow-paced yet intense song, which has wonderful piano and violin accompaniment in the background. This is the perfect song for your sleeping playlist if you are looking for a mellow tune that is not necessarily acoustic.
