Written by John Lennon as an ode to sleep, this song talks about the joy of spending the day in bed. There are few of us who wouldn’t appreciate the occasional lie-in!
Okay, so this song might not be about dreams in the literal sense. But we couldn’t miss out on listing a tune that brings such positive vibes. It’s impossible to listen to this song and not be put into a good mood!
This song is a classic 80s banger. Be careful not to listen to it right before bed. Those catchy beats might keep you nodding your head instead of nodding off to sleep!

This is of Coldplay’s lesser-known songs. It was a hidden track on the group’s 2008 album, Viva la Vida, so it’s a bit of a secret gem. There are online rumours the song was written while the band members were under hypnosis, which may explain its blissful nature.
It’s hard to believe that after more than 70 years, this catchy song is still so popular today. It’s racked over 50 million views of the song on YouTube.
