And while I'm at it, anything from "Yiruma" is fantastic, he really plays with your emotions.

I've got a long list ...

Yiruma - Be My First
Yiruma - It's Your Day
Yiruma - Kiss The Rain (my personal favourite)
Yiruma - Maybe
Yiruma - Love Hurts
Yiruma - River Flows In You (this song was used in Twilight as Beth's lullabye)
Yiruma - When The Love Falls

I really recommend you to listen to these songs while you study as well =)

Check out any Simon and Garfunkel, thats what's the best relaxation music in my opinion, here are some other notables:

"Animals" - Pink Floyd -- The whole album is great from start to finish
"Comfortably Numb" - Pink Floyd
"Brain Damage" - Pink Floyd
"The Battle of Evermore" - Led Zeppelin
"Hey Hey, What can I do" - Led Zeppelin
"Gimme Shelter" - Rolling Stones
"The End" - The Doors
"Riders on the Storm" - The Doors
"Some Kind of Wonderful" - Grand Funk Railroad
"If I were a Carpenter" - Bobby Darin
"No Quarter" - Led Zeppelin
"To Live is to Die" - Metallica
"Fade to Black" - Metallica
"Band on the Run" - Paul McCartney and Wings
"Karma Police" - Radiohead
"Every Breath You Take" - The Police

All those Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd songs are awesome, cudoes on music taste. My fav song there is "no quarter". The band "Tool" ive always found pretty mellow and relaxing. Also my fav band "Opeth" to some extent have plenty of relaxing, soothing songs.

P.s download the song "dazed and confused" by Led Zeppelin, u will love it!

^Dazed and confused is so awesome especially the solo, but I found it a bit upbeat and jumpy during the end of the solo for it to be a relaxation song, however, I do have "To Live is to Die" and "Fade to Black" on my list. I'm thinking "Lateralus" - Tool and "Harvest" - Opeth are the best relaxation songs from both those bands.

thats awesome man! there is a real good version of "dazed and confused" on the BBC sessions disk (live), it goes for 18 mins tho lol.. if u havent got it i would suggest it. Its the famous one how Jimmy page uses the violin bow during solo ( very innovative for the time). Tool= awesome and have u heard "patterns of the ivy II" by Opeth. PM me ur Msn addy!

Anything by Royksopp is good.

Yeah, John Mayer is an awesome artist and most of the tracks of Continuum are easy to listen to/relaxing.

I often listen to Louis Armstrong, Jamie Cullum and some quiet songs by the Pogues but it all depends on what types of music you like.
