Gary Wright - Dreamweaver (1976)

[PVTDancer70s]

Leave tomorrow behind. I felt it come and go .Another great song.

[reddog9401]

i just want to fly to a astro plain when i here this song

[666uberstud666]

I'll never understand how such a mellow number ends on one of the creepiest notes of all time. Seriously - sustain that synth note and you have the soundtrack to a movie scene where it's dark, in the woods, and the family of campers sense something evil is impending......and......well..­.......sure enough - they're descended upon by flesh-eating zombie werewolves.

see?

TOTAL Gary Wright

[Brettsburg20]

This song reminds me of watching comets on a late summer night, w/ a ton of lighting bugs and maybe a UFO or two flying by!

[DSSimpson66]

Amazing song and memories.

[BabyGirlBfly]

OMG whats up with the background singer tryin to put some soul into this song? She kinda ruined it. but I LOVE GARY ♥♥♥

[rvhawkeye]

Great memory. Too bad the volume is recorded so low.

Used to ice skate to this song at the rink.

[01mevans]

man - wish there were songs like this today, where you can ACTUALLY understand the words, and has some feeling/meaning in it.

[1QuikTransAm]

@01mevans No kidding, the soul this man sang with was just amazing. Chills everytime....

[Godsraptor]

@01mevans There are, you're just not listening to them

[1QuikTransAm]

Wow, this is awesome!

[zenitramyvaj]

Thumbs up if you were looking for Dreamweaver Tutorials

Astral Projection is scary.......

[drumsport]

Did you catch Steve Porcaro of future Toto fame on supporting keys?  A sweet tune!

[figbat1]

[TheRobertkline]

And after the song is over you still have the same problems..

[Puseye2]

Saw him live in Toronto around 1978, or there abouts. He was the opening act for Jethro Tull on their Minstrel In The Gallery tour.

[cevd88]

Love this song!

[sweetgyy]

excellent

[hulaqde]

this song came out when i had my 2nd daughter in '76- this will always remind me of her....

[appazknarf1]

kickass!.... nice trip...:) thanks... 

[freak65candy]

Thanks bagwoli.Yeah,I think back to then when my dad was younger than I am now.He is in the nursing home with dementia and it is ALWAYS the music that unlocks the memories.I wonder who will remember me as I have no kids.It is super that my nephews grew up listening to the old stuff and really embrace it.I think of how music fits certain moments.I only want to hear Stairway to Heaven when I am driving down a dark and lonesome road.Same with Hotel California.Teach your son well..

[freak65candy]

My mom always said she was gonna die when she was 40 years old.She was 36 and I was 11 when this song came out.She was very sick and had an operation at the time.I can remember riding home from the hospital(hearing this song on the radio) in the back seat of the car and crying in the dark.This song will always remind me of how I love my mother.She didn't die at 40.And I have her to love still to this day.God bless the seventies.

[bagwoli]

@freak65candy God bless you and your Mother. There's nothing like some old 70's tunes to dig up such strong memories - I am reliving grade school through my son as I started listening to these songs again - I can see myself in each grade that he is in. I can't remember much, but music unlocks my memory and I am thankful for that. Again, God bless you and your Mom

[tryithere]

@freak65candy So she lied to you then.

[RGK2112]

@freak65candy I'm so glad your mother didn't die at 40, and that she is still with us today. I know, music touches us ALL (only those whom allow it). It can be, and I believe it is, a breathing, living thing.

[taxgeek67]

@freak65candy Interesting, I recall being 8, and my mom dying of cancer at age 37. This song was played frequently on the bus ride home...amazing how aural memories can be.

[shootersteve]

@freak65candy Dude, what a great story. God Bless you and your mom.

[megarust32]

@freak65candy really it reminded me of wayne's world

[neckarsulme]

@freak65candy Thanks for sharing.......

[420DrOsKy]

gotta love this song

[sexykitten0627]

Why is it that most background vocals to most bands suck? It was doing great until the women started singing. UGH!!!!

[Blues353]

@sexykitten0627 Because they don't write or feel the tune properly.

[Thorgiersson]

@Blues353 bigots need not apply

[deewkay1]

Listen to Spooky Tooth - The Mirror ,, you won't be disappointed.. Promise..LOL

[deewkay1]

Many people don't know Gary came from Spooky Tooth.. a mega fantastic band..

[phukpasswords]

Why am I buying my music from iTunes??? All the great, classic music is right here, and free!!

[matt180497]

this makes me think of The People Vs. Larry Flynt

[TrishaAnn1961]

Thanks for this one. I was 15 y/o when this came out and still love it

[THB79]

@TrishaAnn1961 Same here

[AngelEyesJasmine]

I was born a year before this song came out but I love this song and this era!!!! I miss these songs!!!!

[LittleRaggie]

It always amazes me when internet trolls luck onto songs like these & break out with their lack of talent comments. This song came from a period before most of you trolls were born & it means nothing to you except to show your ignorance by your comments. It means something to us who were there when the song first came out & it remains in our memories. In twenty years or so you will be typing this same message to the trolls that will follow you as they lay their s**t on your favourite memories...

[guitwizzz]

@shaeleirenegar You are gay!

[awesmillion4612636]

[ojmccaf63]

[floyd066]

The Midnight Special. I have been listening to the Dreamweaver CD more, and it is really good stuff. I've owned the CD for at least 10 years but finally put it on my ipod. Great job Gary!!!!!

[donthaveoneable]

[parsonsclubmarket]

Somebody just opened up a time capsule this goes way back>>>>>>

[saclrpfrl10]

Winter, 1976, blue Impala, great kiss (followed by a wedding, 2 daughters, and a funeral), and yes - I will meet you on the other side.

Music triggers life's memories.

[Vindicator58]

@saclrpfrl10 ---God Bless you! You brought tears to my wife and I! We are the same age, same story, but a blue Torino and no funeral yet for us, just one of our children:(

[saclrpfrl10]

@Vindicator58 So sorry - God Bless you two also!

[marklmansfield]

@saclrpfrl10 Red 65 Impala

[Poopaloo55]

@saclrpfrl10 Damn....really got to me, that. Sorry for your loss.

[saclrpfrl10]

@Poopaloo55 Thank you -

[miamiorlando1]

Is he performing this on wolfman jack? Good memories.

[ChromeGnome54]

First time I heard this song was 1974..in Alaska...I was in a Strip Joint..the girl Dancing was Fantastic..Still think of her every time I hear this..Like to know where she is now

[Heeeeyman]

After all these years Dreamweaver is still a great song. Timeless.

[pittysbad]

on the ride to the hospital to have my first child in 1976, this song came on the radio and played over and over I found it very comforting.

[adamjg4]

When I do my HTML and CSS coding in Adobe Creative Suite, I always listen to this!

[NetBoySteve]

awesome suit... great voice.

[frankrizzo51]

Looking a little Peter Gabriel-ish.

[chico260]

I want to find my DreamBeaver

[petalrs]

[Green4219]

[AmurPatel]

gay man of much no music

[bigfez58]

The 60's and 70's did rock,im glad i was a teen then,and it seems like some of the younger youth appreciate this music also.

[naughtyvalues]

damn this song is older then i am! but it's still a great song

[birkiebaby]

wow,really makes me miss the 70's!!!!!!!!!!

[leydenzar]

Such kewl song, many memories of my late dad as this was his favorite waaayyy back in the mid 70's

[smfbiz]

This song does things to me .. it takes me on a unbelieveable ride! I was 15 when it came out,. Very sexy song..

[20YearsAndAWakeup]

This is the National Anthem for MDMA

[mofetee12]

i had sex with a girl listing to this song

[ValhallaAwaitsU]

ahhhh, this song is so awesome. Nothing beats kicking back with a pair of high quality headphones, listening to this song and forgetting about my troubles.

[joevs21001]

One of the most under credited musicians of the 70's, Gary Wright was an incredible vocalist. Even into the 2000's, later in life, Gary sustained his one of a kind mellow smooth voice and can still sing incredibly well. This is one of the best live versions of Dream Weaver Gary ever did and had great backing singers with him with their all out deep soul scratchy voices. Incredible.....

[photopicker]

@joevs21001 there was a day when this tune played around the clock ... well earned right into that hall of fame

[mjw9363]

fuck yeah!

[smasherhits]

@mjw9363 Ok I stand corrected..I read that mis-information somewhere once..Gary Wright did in fact write Dreamweaver and Foster only played on the album..Happy now Dickhead?

[mjw9363]

@smasherhits never happy about know it all's who post incorrect information for the world to see instead of doing a quick check to at least make sure they're right...you know??..people like you

[Guildguy2]

I dig the clairol twins matching PJ's. Probably got them at the hilton gift shop or maybe when they were touring in Budakhan. The next year George lucas picked up on the trend. What great years those were. Our countries gone from champagne to horse piss in thirty years. I blame it on ALL politicians.

[gemini16th]

FYI: Wright's inspiration for this song was(via the Beatle's George Harrison) the Indian spritualist Paramahansa Yogananda: ...."When my mind weaves dreams with threads of memories, then on that magic cloth will I emboss: God!, God!, God!".

[smasherhits]

This song was written by David Foster

[mjw9363]

@smasherhits Think again.....Gary wrote it,numbnuts

[freecherokeespirit]

that 70s show brought me here but i knew this song way before i heard it on that show and im only 21 i grew up listening to him leo sayers(from my mom) cats n the cradle all dat n im only 21 how cool is dat XD(but i hate rap n country well i love charlie daniels band and dolly parton but dats it of country)

[MrHamncheez]

dude rocks, but his modern version sucks

[MrRedneckcracker]

@starslight13 ........... Really ? what's her name & what does she look like ?

[starslight13]

@MrRedneckcracker It doesnt matter forget it dude. :l

[evetsgolb]

The days were warm as your grey eyes..the nights were Southern California ...possible..Everyone had love to give , lose, bet or rest on ..-until we arrived at the theater and became dream weavers

[siouxsieandziggy]

Acid trip!

[TripleBarrel06]

The song that shaped a software :P

[sigmus90]

@TripleBarrel06 Oohhh InDesiiiiiign. I believe you can get me through the niiiight.

[soaringvulture]

@sigmus90 I think you meant GoLive.

[FarginBastiges]

Great live performance, except for one backup singer "/

[MrRedneckcracker]

@FarginBastiges ....... true true ...... that one backup sounds like nails on the chalkboard .... other than that awesome : )

[johnh887]

love this song .

[fariz03111994]

Like this song , it's much relaxing

[MrMegaFredzeppelin]

This takes me back a day or two.ROCK ON!!!!!!

[fine6t9]

This is a great song. But, bombstad94, you're right and so funny about the paraody.  I really like Weird Al's parodies, too!

[abcbraveheart]

Nice early New Age pop song. Thanks for this vid, I always wondered what the band looked like in performance.

[soxfan801]

This song always makes me think of Wayne"s World.

[BellaGartenLLC]

Classic Skating Rink song :-) 1970s

[JimmyT132]

This is from late winter/early spring of 1976, I was about to graduate from 4 long years of highschool in Niagara Falls NY. What a great time of optimism, energy, confidence and anticipation. As difficult as those years had been , I was surprised at how sad I felt when graduation came, and our class of 76 was disbanded. Our class colors were red, white and blue. Now, the kids are in the 4 corners of the country, I wonder if they ever hear this music and think back to those days,.

[somebodytoluv1234]

I was engaged 2B merried n whatever

[kja427]

Whatever happened to him? It's like he had the one good year, 1976, and then he disappeared. Would someone put out an APB on Mr. Wright for me? I'd really appreciate it.

[markbrandus]

Meat clever - lol.

[workingnow100]

aww I was on my honeymoon in Florida in 82 when I heard this in the Sea shell motel in Naples. Sat out in the car listening to it. Said to my new husband I really love this song for him to tell me we would have the album at home cause he had it as Mr Singleton Happy days!

[acidheadzzzz]

this takes me back to the innocent years of my youth, 11yrs old at the school dance with my little sweetheart...Connie. hmmm I wonder where she is now.

I cant remember what I did yesterday but I remember the lights the sound and my math teacher threatening to break my arms if my hands touched her bum again hahaha

[lastdaysguitar]

Sure miss the Midnight Special. Hasn't been anything like it on TV since. Live music is where it's at.

[AMP1fy3000]

Slow skate!

[PlanTonto]

Whoever owns the rights to this dude's songs is a complete ASSHOLE. They don't allow any original versions of his songs on YT, they are all shitty versions with shitty quality. Come on you guys, this guy has been musically dead for almost 40 years, these songs should belong to the people. Give us all a fucking break....

[CaptWafer]

the warehouse, NOLA whole album with frampton comes alive $5.00

i know what year it was but i can't remember

[edweibeful]

astral plane baby...

[midgetweasle666]

@TAMPABAYSUCKS what about geddy lee...

[phoenix30223]

This man touched my heart.

[PlanTonto]

@phoenix30223 This man actually touched me pims in a loo in a London train station...

[Ibeatyou23]

Don't give weird al any ideas.

[aligatorsandwitch72]

The first day of my senior year I high school I introduced myself to some freshman girl as Dream Weaver. My shoulder length hair was flowing in the wind as I did it. That entire high school now calls me Dream Weaver.

[sergiolopez3349]

Crowbar brought me here! haha

[febullit]

[Jignasty5]

[krainwater75]

where's the "love" button?!

[aguafinatv]

fantastik.

[macsnafu]

Look at that custom box Gary is using. The electric piano is in front, but behind it is some kind of rack-mount analog synth.

[Gengar10000000000]

Adobe Dreamweaver anthem.

[snowy16100]

gary Wright could stand on his head while singing this song for all I care...LUV this song. Such memories,and no..there wasn't a better song out there to experience all of life's "firsts". Thank You Gary Wright,for one of the greats... (pssst, the backup singers weren't necessary).

[shararari]

SHWING!! She's a babe!! 

[TheRobin53]

@shararari

She's magically babelicious!

[morgankitty1]

he must have been banging those background singers because they are not needed

This song beats out anything by Boston or Peter Gabriel for trippiest song of all time IMO. Holy shit... I can't even imagine what it would be like to be on acid and listen to this song at the same time.
