Rufus Wainwright... Sade...the first Coldplay disc...Fiona Apple...

I used to listen to Nora Jones (saw her in concert with John Mayer before the craze and was blown away by her voice, so unique) but now that its ALL OVER THE PLACE I don't so much...

And finally the CD I used as nap music for my 14 two-year olds when I used to work at a daycare center... Rob Whitesides-Woo's Mountain Light
Those tend to be soothing to me

Good call on the Sister Hazel and George Michael

My first concert I ever went to was George Michael and I was in hooked LoL Of course I was only in 4th/5th grade so there was a lot that I didnt get about him and his songs, but I liked it none the less.

I don't really listen to something soft to unwind, I just listen to something...that said, just about any cd I own i'd use to unwind.

what truant said. most music that i like relaxes me in general, regardless of whether it is up-tempo or not.
