  • Just close your eyes and listen, if you can feel or dont get this, your a walking dead.

  • @MrCaribbean Hmmm..I buy that!!!

    Have a nice day.

    Vanu.

  • Like "Air" I asked Robert to do it at Hammersmith - he did the "All she left me was a dream" line and said that his voice wouldn't make it that night.

    I remember buying the album, taking it round my friend's house for the precious "first listen" - there was 4 of us and we just sat transfixed for the lenghth of the album. sigh.....I feel old...

  • Well triacyde, youre never too old to tell a nice story like you did.

    Tks and take care.

    Vanu

  • Nice job with this! Man, I'd give about anything to hear this song live. I asked Albert to play it at one of his shows and he said it was Robert's song. I hollered for Robert to play it at his show and he literally just said "no" from the stage.

  • Hi air,

    Nice story you got there! Probably it was a one time CCC project, a very nice project! Too bad Albert C. and Johnny C. left us already.

    Have a nice day.

    Vanu.

  • cool... thats blues

  • @MrCaribbean

    this was one of the first blues songs i've heard as a young kid ... needless to say i was hooked to the blues ever since !!! my fav blues album of all time

  • damn...been there

  • this song is almost too depressing for me to listen to. it applies to me way too much. nothing like your first love, even if they hurt you... it's been about 6 years and i still have the dream all the time, no matter who my girlfriend is. i wonder if she ever has the dream? doubt it.

  • @vanu49 same to you my friend. listen to this 5 times already :-)

  • this is one of the baddest tunes i have ever heard..since I first heard it back in the 80's..the singing is superb, Collins guitar rips right thru you and the lyrics...ah the lyrics...If you have ever been thru "the dream" u know exactly what they are saying....Unbelievable!

  • great one!!

  • Sublime and Iceman! Just Iceman, Thank you so much!
