Have you ever had a sleep study? All of the symptoms you describe are possible symptoms of sleep disorders. It might be helpful to discuss these symptoms with your doctor, and ask if a sleep study may be appropriate. Considering your auditory hallucinations at sleep onset, which may be something called "hypnagogic hallucinations," doing an MSLT (or "nap study") along with the regular sleep study (polysomnogram) may be diagnostically helpful.
Just to let you know, I have personally experienced all of the symptoms you are describing. I used to find the auditory hallucinations distracting and sometimes even upsetting when I was trying to fall asleep. However, once I got diagnosed with a sleep disorder (in my case, narcolepsy), I found they didn't both me as much because at least I knew what was causing it. Extremely realistic, vivid dreams can also be a sign of sleep disorders; I get these as well with my narcolepsy. I strongly recommend that you speak with a doctor about these symptoms, as there are treatments available that can improve the quality of sleep for people with sleep disorders.

I know this post is old, but what you said is exactly what happens to me. And I am not laying on my ears, just on my back, I can not make out the music, like others posting. I even asked my husband if he hears it. Though when I sit up, at times I can still hear it, sometimes it sounds like people talking too. Does it still happen? I have had a brain MRI, due to migraines and my brain is fine. Neck problems is all. I am on topimax and other meds, so I usually doze right off now. My sister told me to try and tap into the noise, maybe it's a physic ability but I can't even imagine. I guess she said that because I have a lot of strange dreams as well that seem very real. Although it's strange, it's a relief to hear other people have it happen. I don't think it's dangerous, at least I know there is nothing dangerous for me since I had an MRI. Did you ever see a Doctor?
I have the same problem, sounds like a tv show is on even when I'm miles away from anyone with a tv or radio.
I heard here on MH recently this is called ear worms...look it up.it doesnt mean you have worms in your ears
I have listened music in night but it is hardly half an hours. Because if you hear music constantly it can be affect on your sleep.
YES! I hear actual songs in my sleep at night, and very often during the day as well. It's also usually songs I've heard recently, like you. It really gets to me, as I am hearing music almost literally 24/7! I mentioned it to my psychiatrist and also a psychologist when I was seeing one, and they both seemed a bit baffled by it, and offered no advice. They didn't seem worried about it. I've never heard of anyone else with this problem, so it helps to know I'm not alone. I will sometimes hear the same song for 3-4 days straight, and at other times, it is different songs.
