Top five chillout songs? Now that sounds like an interesting challenge... here goes!
5. Dive - David Bridie: Reminds me of the days i would spend trying to relax my aggravated nerves by walking along a beach, i can picture the water and the waves curling up and crashing as i listen to this song and it always gives me the biggest sense of peace and harmony.
4. Mogwai fear Satan: If I am not relaxed by the end of a 16 minute soothing, rousing epic like this, then i musn't be human. it's brutal, it's beautiful and it leaves me with goosebumps, always...
3. Magician Among the Spirits - The Church: It's got this really laid back, lazy sounding bassline and not a wholeot more except for a few sounds and guitar effects and thirteen minutes of poetic lyrics... an epic way to relax.
2. Airportman - R.E.M I love the way this just kinda ambles along with ambient sounds and a very husky low toned vocal from Michael Stipe... lots of little ringing sounds doesn't hurt the relaxing feel either...
1. Kid A (the track) - Radiohead: Again..... the ambience and the overall feel and blend of sounds just kinda lull me intoa nice sense of relaxation here...
