That is really a difficult question for me. There are so many different songs I could at any given time say would be my favorite to chill to when in a state of herbal relaxation.
 
If no one minds I will offer more than one suggestion.
 
"Low Spark Of High Heeled Boys" – Traffic

"Kashmir" – Led Zeppelin

"Day After Day," "Come and Get It" – Badfinger

"Whiter Shade of Pale" – Procol Harum

"FM," "Deacon Blues." Hey Nineteen," Do It Again," "My Old School" – Steely Dan

"Valerie," "While You See a Chance" – Steve Winwood

"Damn Good" – "Diamond" David Lee Roth
 
Those would be a few I could at any given time say might by my favorite since the question was about a favorite song to chill to and not favorite song to get into or that pumps you up or that really rocks. I would have totally different songs listed if that had been the case.

I could add a few more laid back songs to chill to .. the first few all by Emerson, Lake & Palmer
 
"From the Beginning"
 
"Lucky Man"
 
"Still You Turn Me On"



Cream’s "White Room" might be another.
 

"Cause We Ended as Lovers" by Jeff Beck would work well too.
 

Possibly Jimmy Buffet’s "Margaritaville" too.


"For Yasgur’s Farm" by Mountain might work too if laid back chillin’ stuff is what is being looked for. It's pretty much that.


"Lines on My Face" by Peter Frampton might be another possible option.
 
 
"Too Rolling Stoned" is a bit more hard but not more so than "Smoke on the Water" so maybe a little Robin Trower might fit in. He was great.
 
 
"Oye Como Va" by Santana works for me.
 
 
A couple from Supertramp that could work would be"
 
"Goodbye Stranger"
 
"The Logical Song"
 
"Bloody Well Right" could possibly work too. It does for me anyway.
 
 
Can any songs be more laid back and relaxing than some Van Morrison songs?
 
"Moondance"
 
"Brown Eyed Girl"

 
Maybe you might find one more to add from the above. At least I hope so.

i have to say that pretending your two hands are soulful ducks singing to each other while listening to pink floyd is kinda fun lol i think it's going on the list, not the duck bit but the song....the ducks are optional

I say … whatever floats your boat.


"Dreams" by The Allman Brothers Band is laid back.

I MUCH prefer the Molly Hatchett version; "Dreams I’ll Never See" but it is anything but laid back and chillin’ listening …. Its kick-ass rock hard rock.
 
If you like The Allman Brothers Band another could be "Soulshine." And another Allman Brothers Band song that is laid back is "In Memory of Elizabeth Reed," plus it has the keen story behind it of how Dickey Betts used to hang around in a cemetery and write songs and named the song after the name he saw on a headstone.
 
B.B. King’s "How Blue Can You Get" would fit if you like blues as would "The Thrill Is Gone" also "Nobody Love Me But My Mother" could do too.
 
"Feel Like Makin’ Love" by Bad Company is laid back.
 
"Long Haired Country Boy" by The Charlie Daniels Band is laid back chillin stuff.

"People say I'm no-good,
And crazy as a loon.
I get stoned in the morning,
I get drunk in the afternoon.
Kinda like my old blue tick hound,
I like to lay around in the shade,
An', I ain't got no money,
But I damn sure got it made.


'Cos I ain't askin' nobody for nothin',
If I can't get it on my own.
If you don't like the way I'm livin',
You just leave this long-haired country boy alone."
 
Cyndi Lauper’s "All Through the Night" would qualify as being laid back.
 
"Black Water" by The Doobie Brothers could be one to consider.
 
"Sea of Love" by The Honeydrippers may be called laid back and chillin’ though some might just call it kinda gay.
 
Huey Lewis & the News’ "If This Is It" might find a place too, maybe.
 
"That Girl Could Sing," Boulevard," "Tender Is The Night, "The Pretender" and "The Load-Out," among a number of other Jackson Browne songs would work .. though I may have mentioned one or two of the previously.
 
"Steeled Blues" by Jeff Beck is laid back stuff as is his "Thelonius" and "The Pump" is laid back too.
 
Led Zeppelin’s "I Can’t Quit You Baby" pretty much chills. "When the Levee Breaks" isn’t exactly hard charging. "Stairway to Heaven" is pretty laid back, very much so at certain points.
 
Lynyrd Skynyrd’s "Simple Man" is about as laid back as you will find from Skynyrd so if you like Skynyrd it might be a good option.
 
If you are an Ozzy fan "Mama, I’m Coming Home" is pretty much his most laid back song. Maybe not laid back enough for you but if you want Ozzy in there somewhere that might be the one.
 
One that might be to ‘rockish’ for you but I find relaxing is "I’m the Only One" by Melissa Etheridge.
 
"Every Breath You Take" by The Police is pretty laid back.
 
The Pretenders’ "Thin Line Between Love and Hate" is laid back, other maybe than the tale it tells .. but the sound is laid back.
 
Robert Plant’s "Ship of Fools" is not exactly Black Sabbath-like.
 
Another Robin Trower song that might work would be "Bridge of Sighs."
 
Tumbling Dice" by The Rolling Stones is fairly laid back.
 
Another Santana song that would likely work would be "Black Magic Woman."
 
"Hold Me Now" by The Thompson Twins is laid back.
 
Todd Rundgren had a few laid back songs. One of them "Hello It’s Me" could work.

A little bit of trivia is for years Liv Tyler thought Todd Rundgren was her father. Her mother was a Playboy Playmate and for years all she knew was her father was a rock star and her mom would see Todd Rundgren now and then so the guessed he was her old man and then one day Steven Tyler stopped by for a vist and brought his daughter with him and when Liv saw her she could tell that they were almost twins and began to connect the dots and then her mom finally spilled the beans.
 
"Everybody Wants to Rule the World" by Tears For Fears is very laid back and relaxing.
 
Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young’s "Suite: Judy Blue Eyes" and "Wooden Ships" are pretty chillin’ tunes.
 
Warren Zevon’s "Poor, Poor Pitiful Me" is at least somewhat laid back but maybe not enough for your taste.
 
If you can find one or two more from those then you might by now have a good start to your mix.

If it doesn’t bother you that Lola has a schlong, the song "Lola" by The Kinks is laid back and has a cool sound to it.
