t h e (SLEEPY) L i s t:: insomniacs and emotives

Winter season finds me up at all hours of the night, thinking, rehashing, reminiscing, often remembering things I would rather, um, forget. THUS, I'm constantly searching for music that will ease my mind, appease my heart, & (hopefully) lull me to sleep. This list is what I have so far; I've found it also does well to accompany them misty mornings and treacherously cold nights. Enjoy!
