Rolling In The Sleep: Adele’s Tunes Top Sleep Playlists

Is this a good thing?

Adele’s tunes have people rolling in the sleep, after her music was found to be top of the population’s nodding-off list.

The record-breaking chart star was found to be the most effective soundtrack for nodding off.

A survey by hotel chain Travelodge showed Adele topped the charts when it comes to snooze-some tunes, as it helps people relax.

The Rolling In The Deep singer has deposed Coldplay from the top of the charts when it comes to nodding off. The band were number one for the firm's previous surveys in 2008 and 2010, but were pushed into second spot this time by the new mum.

The poll of 2,000 adults put Snow Patrol in third place and Barry White in fourth.

Dreamy chart hunks One Direction, whose debut album was called, ironically, Up All Night, were in fifth position.

Some suggestions for your ‘Sleep’ playlist if nothing else…

Sleep expert Stevie Williams from the Edinburgh Sleep Centre said: "Results from various sleep studies undertaken with a variety of male and female groups, has indicated that listening to soft, relaxing music at bedtime leads to a number of different benefits to a night's sleep."

Travelodge spokeswoman Shakila Ahmed said: "After a long stressful day it's essential that you de-stress to aid sleep and listening to music will help focus your attention and assist your body and mind to relax."

That it is Shakila. Right, off to iTunes we go…
