Chill songs of all types

[Goosemaster]

Share a nice chill song that you relax/ do whatever do:


As I have said before, I like driving to

"handshake drugs" by Wilco

 

[loup garou]

The taxicabs were driving me around
To the handshake drugs I bought downtown

Haven't been listening to too much chill music lately, but Thievery Corp feat Flaming Lips -- Marching the Hate Machines (Into the Sun) is a great track.

 

[SacrosanctFiend]

Death Cab - "Lack of Color" "We Looked Like Giants" "Title and Registration" "Tiny Vessels"
Straylight Run - "Existentialism on Prom Night" "It's For the Best" "Your Name Here (Sunrise Highway" "Now It's Done" "Another Word For Desperate"

My favorite is between Existenialism on Prom Night and We Looked Like Giants

I don't know what havoc is, so that would also explain why I haven't seen it.

I have no idea what's popular anymore...just assumed they'd made it to MTV. I'm always surprised when some band I've heard of shows up on SNL or gets discussed on these forums. Not that I fault the bands--good for them. I'd be the biggest rock sellout ever if I had the chance.

I've been listening to Moby- Where You End lately. It's such a nice and soothing track from his newest CD I believe

I think it's specific to Comcast On-Demand. I know none of the bands I listen to are very popular, though back in 96-97 during the "Ska Craze" a few of them made it to MTV. Now it's all about the hip-hop and pop-crap.
