Buttercream gang song: Dreams of a Better Day

[LoveNTheTragedy]

loved when fam guy did a bit about them!!

[annejmacaco]

@adiostraitorobama funny that you say that when you obviously looked up the video in the first place.

[XtremeKoolade23]

I used to think they were so badass cause they broke bottles on train tracks, biked in front of traffic & took little girls off the see-saw...man it must feel good to be a gangster...

Man, this brings back soo many memories

[TheFiscster510]

Does anyone know where i can get tabs for this?

[GiggidyGoo76]

Ha, Pete was like hey give me your lunch, don't tell anyone see you tomorrow.

[elmosfire3334]

This song takes me back a long way. Is there any chance I could have the mp3 file from somewhere. I can't find it anywhere. Thanks for posting this on youtube. ;)

[onethrough7]

EARTHQUAKE!!!



[ButterCreamer2010]

I'm posting the whole movie under hybridrainbowremix. Like tonight. 

[dishwashingagent]

pete and his friends are the only 30 year olds at the elementary school

[VABkWrm]

My daughter has discovered this through Better Living class at her school. I want to get it for her on DVS.

[INSANEinthuhMEMBRANE]

I tried to watch this with a straight face but now I can't stop LMAO.

This movie was played at the end of every school year in my elementary days.

[JaySchway]

the widow jenkins... i wish she'd fall down again for old times sake.

[KennethKaniffFromCT]

@JaySchway This is my favorite youtube comment ever.

[smurfigee]

Treasure mountain

[sammarexia]

anyone know whats up with the little boy grabbing his ass && pushing his friend @1:50??

everytime i watch the movie.. i always try to figure out what causes his reaction.. like he got hit in the ass by the seesaw.. but he didnt.

its soo distracting! help.

[enjoydavidtoo]

There is a buttercream gang part II

[BrainBlast]

yeah there is, do you remember what its called?

[OneUnderOnTheDay]

hahahah YES!!!

[ellenwispa]

Lol. Yeah, real tough guys. Taking little girls off a playground toy.. Go Pete. lol

[AntqueenP]

The name of this song is *Pete's Song*

[annejmacaco]

It could be called "pete's song" as an alternative name, but technically it's called 'dreams of a better day' which is stated on the Buttercream gang DVD as well as several websites for the movie.

=)

[AntqueenP]

Thanks for the info, my musical copy of the melody says Pete's song. However it does make sense that the song titile may have changed or have an alternative title.

[RenoRadioReps]

@annejmacaco, I havent been able to find the dvd. This is the funniest movie I've ever seen!!!

[pyroninjax1990]

I think if people would learn from this movie they can better themselfs and those around them.. like a lost friend that just needs a hand and a place to call home.

[sk8ercole]

agreed i saw it and i was getting in a lot of stuff then i realized not all gangs are bad this movie changed my life 4ever

[pyroninjax1990]

the first time i saw this movie was over 10 years ago. was good to see it again tho i am 19. Just goes to show that it doesn't matter your age you still can learn or relearn some of the simplest things to help a friend in need . even if it would take a whole summer.

[bookworm121314]

love it!! :)

[cherries888]

Whats the name of this movie???

[annejmacaco]

The Buttercream Gang

=)

[vitalremain1]

Say Can You Post The Whole Movie?

[annejmacaco]

when I have the time... I'm in college so time is limited. I'll try as soon as I can! =)

[niteangel27]

Or you can just do what I did and buy a copy cheap at amazon marketplace?

[PositiveLastAction]

I bought the VHS for 50 cents at a thrift shop last week. Why? ...cause I'm a buttercreamer!

[niteangel27]

Eh...I've had a vhs copy since the movie first came out, I was talking to someone about a dvd copy which I purchased 8 months ago, Glad you're a buttercreamer too:)

[keithpaul10]

Thanks for posting this song. I have been searching for it for a while...

[StableBabe]

Love, love, love this song!! Such a memorable movie from yesteryear.

[sherileprada]

Omg thank you for this video! I've been absolutely in love with this song since I was about 3. lol

[kjag23]

Like what the heck does Pete say to those two guys. "How would you like to join my gang, Oh how many people are in it, well just me, If you e-mail me your resume and 2 recomendations I will get back to you as soon as possible" lol

[dvkillz1]

pete was a skinny fuck he aint no gangsta

[Adaeze611]

Oh....my.....goodness....his takes me so far back.....when life was simple...I wanna cry

[keithpaul10]

I agree, those we're the good old days.....

[aparhelger]

This movie brings me back to the summer of '94 when I was like eight.

[Starrlabb]

I used to watch this part of the movie over and over again, so much that the video skipped.lol And I've been searching for the mp3 for years!! :/

[Detective79]

Love this song. I actually cried one time when I watched this, LOL.

[fireboy21hockey]

does anyone know how to find the lyrics to this song??

I have been looking everywhere and I love it

[niteangel27]

Ah this WAS a great movie! I wish they'd re release it on dvd. I only have it on VHS from when I was a kid.

[kileyging]

they actually did re release it on DVD. in like '04 or '05. it's available on amazon. prices vary.

[niteangel27]

Yeah i know, I purchased a copy a few weeks ago, but thanks!

[dracons]

heh. I have a much better quality on real plaer. Just which I knew how to make vids -_-. Anyone want it? Then you make the vid and post?

[RubyWeaponMono]

has anybody ever noticed how big scott's rear is?

[LadyGwinivere]

I love this song! thank you so much for posting it:)

[Connie0246]

Aw, I love this movie! I haven't seen it since I was about 8. =( I need to buy it.

[dottidal]

"Dreams of a Better Day" was written by Kurt Bestor, but it's actually performed by Judd Maher. :) Just wish I could find it on mp3!

[annejmacaco]

Yeah XD I just couldn't remember his name! thanks for posting! =)

[psynerd09]

OMG! I don't even know what to say! This song means so so much to my siblings and I! We too have been looking forever! It seems that eveyone has fond memories of this movie and the song huh! Thank you so much!

[vingurl99]

I have the movie at home and I would watch it all the time and rewind this part and song over and over

[whateverlolawants]

Oh man! My sister and I would always tape this song on our tape recorder during this part of the movie. We can still sing every word of it! Hearing it now, I can hear a big Cat Stevens influence, and maybe James Taylor too. It's legitimately a good song, even being in such a silly movie (which will always have a place in my sis and I's hearts.) Now I'm reading more about Kurt Bestor and I'd like to see him perform sometime. Thanks for posting!

[slublu]

yea i always think of 'peace train' from cat stevens when i hear this song

[streakjet5]

Dude, thank you. I love this song. Brings back good memories.

[rjprov09]

thanks for posting this! I have been trying for ever to get a copy, I even emailed the composer and his agency could not locate a copy to send me! You rock.
