I have this too, especially when I’m really tired. It’s such a surreal yet refreshing experience. I can hear the most beautiful melodies my ears have ever heard, even though I don’t have a musical bone in my body. And I jump in and out of various vague visual scenes (like staring into deep space) during this.

It always makes me question if I’m dreaming or not - and often, it’s the last thought I remember before I actually drift off to sleep. All of this seems to happen during the span of 60 seconds max (judging from my heartbeats), but this has categorically been debunked when my wife once told me I was actually snoring for a couple of minutes.

The melody thing I assume I have not suddenly become a master composer, rather the part of my mind capable of judging whether the music is any good has become impaired.
