Day 10 - a song that makes you fall asleep



     When I was in the military I would use music to put me to sleep.  My bedtime CD's usually included any songs by Sarah McLauchlan.  One of my favorites is "Angel".   The song is very clamming and if you don't think about to much of the meaning it is helpful for relaxing.  If you think to much of the meanings then you could be up all night.  This song has been used to bring awareness to its original meaning along with Columbine High School,  911, Concert for Linda (For Linda McCartney Breast Cancer), Tsunami Aid, and for American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.  Also has been accredited to aiding in saving Darryl McDaniels (Run-D.M.C.) life (as stated by himself).

     This song has deep meaning in which she explains above.  It was inspired by the overdose of Jonathan Melvoin, whom was a touring keyboardist for the Smashing Pumpkins during the Mellon Collin and the Infinite Sadness tour.  Which is an amazing CD as well.
