"In today's hectic fast-paced world, stress is the number one trigger for keeping 75 percent of Britons awake at night," Leigh McCarron, Travelodge sleep director said. "Therefore it's no surprise that eight out of ten Britons rely on music to help them nod off."

The study also found that 84 percent of Britons reported listening to music helps aid a good night's sleep, while 15 percent stated they have a much better night's sleep if they have listend to music before drifting off.

Other acts who appear on the list include Radiohead, Jack Johnson, Alicia Keys and Barry White.

The Top 10 acts most likely to help people fall asleep is as follows:

1. Coldplay
2. Michael Buble
3. Snow Patrol
4. Alicia Keys
5. Jack Johnson
6. Taylor Swift
7. Mozart

Probably because it's a UK poll, hence the inclusion of artists like Snow Patrol and Leona Lewis.

I would have thought they would be on the list of "bands most likely to make you throw a shoe at the radio..."
