How many of us fall asleep while

DK: Despite so many of my docs supporting my claim, I'm getting rejected a lot. So, what else can I do so to sooth this savage me, moi?? Listen to music! But I've got to get my dose of Howard Stern in the morning... that's why I needed a Fanfare tuner! Hey Pops, I'm 47, and I've been falling asleep listening to music for >10 yrs. It's not just the medical marijuana!

I find it difficult to fall asleep while in the "sweet spot", whether or not I am listening to music.

I too fall asleep while listening to my system. I've been thinking that there is something wrong with my system and that it does not involve the listener to the music. May be it is just the oposite. Happy listening...

This brings up one of the reasons why music is so great. It moves us. I ditto Elizabeth's comments and do wonder if this is an elevated meditation state rather than plain zonking out. The music can achieve some profound state in my mind then when the music stopping (not silence is my analog system) the difference is very pronounced - very loud as Elizabeth says. I notice that when I am listening to Classic 45's and most CDs this never happens. It seems that there is a zone for me at 15 to 30+ minutes that makes the music work for me and then makes that blanking silence more pronounced. Getting up to change a record every 8-15 minutes doesn't quite allow me to get "there" and I very seldom get into to a CD's music presentation "there". In both cases, I just simply may not be listening to the music. A lot of good LPs and well-performed live classical music performances do it for me. It just could be my listening readiness, time related, and my attention span.
