Are you facing trouble while sleeping? Don't worry; we have you covered, and that, too, in the most musical way. A new study has revealed the best sleep-inducing music from some of the world's most renowned singers, which helps people fall asleep quickly and easily.

A study conducted by Aarhus University in Denmark has revealed that the music of some A-listers, including Billie Eilish and K-pop sensation BTW, Khalid, arehelping people fall asleep.

In the study, in which they analysed over 200,000 songs and a Spotify sleeping playlist, the team found out that
there is not a "one size fits all" genre of music people play to fall asleep, as per the Post.

According to an email from an assistant professor at Aarhus University."It was surprising to see how many different types of music people use for sleep."

"Not only different genres but also different audio characteristics... range from slow, soothing instrumental tracks to more
energetic uptempo pop music."

While most people have a habit of listening to slower songs to fall asleep, the study shared in the journal PLOS One also reveals that there are some people who generally choose to listen to familiar songs to fall asleep.

Rebecca Jane Scarratt and her colleagues discovered that the type of music people listen to for sleep varies greatly, with many people preferring high-energy and tempo beats.

"In this study, we investigated the characteristics of music used for sleep and found that even though sleep music in general is softer, slower, instrumental, and more often played on acoustic instruments than other music, the music people use for sleep displays a large variation, including music characterised by high energy and tempo," the study authors shared.

With their study,the researchers were able to identify six distinct sub-categories of music that people listen to while sleeping. While three categories covered typical sleep music that most people tend to listen to, the other three featured louder and more energetic songs, and the tracks included in this category were BTS' 'Dynamite,''Lovely'by Billie Eilish, and 'Khalid.'

'Jealous'by Labrinth, 'The Scientist'by Coldplay, and 'Falling'by Harry Styles are also among the top sleep-inducing songs.
