30 Day Song Challenge: Day Ten - a song that makes you fall asleep.

Okay, this is a tricky one. And those who are friends of The Conductor know why...

I hate to sleep, and have a hard time doing it.

Needless to say - and hard for some to believe - I do actually need a couple hours of shut eye every night. So, when I look for a soundtrack to my slumberland, I generally look for music like this:

Hey. HEY! Wake up...

Anyway, Dead Can Dance is definitely one of the most unique sounds to come out of the 1990's... or, for that matter, most of mainstream music. Their brand of haunting vocals and rich, vibrant sounds merge in such a way that my mind is able to drift into other places, constructing worlds, events, and the people that might be encountered there. This, in turn, helps me to relax for a little while, and get a couple hours' rest before the madness of my day begins, again.
