Ella For Lovers

Lullabies that are not children’s music became a top category for me out of necessity, having a kid who doesn’t sleep easily. This 2003 compilation is a 10/10. Every track is calm and sweeping, no harsh jumps between tracks, and it’s a hour and a half long. The Cole Porter, Rodgers & Hart, etc. lyrical style keeps my brain busy so I can model deep breathing and not think about why my kid isn’t asleep.
